overview
each couple of weeks create a kennel hosts a gathering in which you send your dogs to met with all the other kennels. this will take place on a separate thread (this one) so it doesn't get so cluttered, and there you will discuss with others kennels through your dogs (role playing) and create allies, enemies and even forbidden relationships between packs. it is not necessary that you go but it is recommended because you can gain allies, forbidden relationships and other fun concepts that add to the game! what happens at the gathering doesn't usually effect your posts, and if you post in the middle of the gathering you don't need to specify that said amount of dogs are at the gathering.

your kennel
you will be bringing your kennel and will have the option to bring many dogs. it's highly recommended that you bring your leader (or at least a fill in for your leader if they are injured, etc), beta and shaman. bringing your leader is the most important because they will be the ones who decide allies, etc. you can bring as many dogs as you wish, but try to keep that in reason. often the bigger kennel the bigger amount of dogs coming to the gathering. you may not bring heavily pregnant or injured dogs or dogs under six moons.

what goes down
at gatherings your dogs can find others to chat with and make new friends, enemies, etc. you can even discuss with other players to have forbidden romances between kennels! it's risky, since some kennels are very against this while others a calm about this. your leader can make allies, and allies can aid them in war and give them supplies if they are kind enough. enemies can stay hostile towards you but can also wage war against your kennel.

other info

your kennel was sent a message by their ancestors or gods to go to this gathering on the night of a full moon. it is up to your kennel to agree to this message or decline it, one note is that the ancestors say that this should be a night of peace, and only the gods know what will happen if dogs disobey. the gathering place is a junkyard near a lively city, though their is no humans present in the junkyard. There is large rocks and a pile of junk that the leader sit upon and discuss things with eachother while looking at the dogs of the kennels below.

muscles gleamed beneath the dark ebony coat, the milky glow of the full moon bathing the large figure as they strode forwards. behind them walked seven canines, each possessing a great quantity of strength that radiated within their towering builds. they moved as a single unit, lead by a potent brute known as diablo. With nicknames ranging from demon to flat-out murdering beast, it was undeniably clear that a dog with such a reputation would take the reins when it came to leadership. "Stop," The austere doberman suddenly ordered, his voice firm. "We have reached the place that the gods had spoken of." Diablo eyed the highest platform of rubble and junk as they entered the junkyard, moving towards it instinctually. His back legs gave a quick kick as he leapt up onto a ledge of something before swiftly climbing to the top. A smirk tugged against the corners of his lips as he gazed down at his kennel, who sat at the base of the pile in a act of guarding for their leader. From here, he could see who was coming and his kennel when the others kennels would come. "Now, Vehementi, we wait. Be on guard always, and be prepared at any moment to lunge out at anyone with bared fangs."

[removed]Bullet || Alpha || Male || 54 moons || Tags ;; Diablo

Bullet scanned the area around him, hoping to catch a glimpse of other kennels and their canine attendants, yet he was only able to scent and see his very own companions. Halting, he glanced back, only to spot his faithful beta, Gabriel, giving him a concerned gaze. Bullet frowned. "Let's get moving again." He muttered swiftly, picking up his pace. He had been travelling for a while to arrive to the gathering, and was unsure of what to expect, and what sorts of drama it may hold. Sighing, he pushed himself to walk faster, with his packmates trailing behind. Finally, he burst into the clearing, where already was a pack waiting, one he hadn't seen before. Ignoring them for the time being, he gingerly led his pack to where they would wait. "Be nice." He growled softly, then making his way to the area near the other pack leader. They were muscular and let off an intimidating demeanor. I shall not let myself be scared of this canine, as we are equal in ranks. Bullet's mind snarled at him. "Hello, I am Bullet. Alpha of Falling Leaves. Who might you be?"

[removed]Gabriel || Beta || Female || 50 moons || Tags ;; Open

What was that feeling that bubbled inside Gabriel? Fear? Possibly. Anxiously, she watched as her mate, also known as the pack Alpha, made his way up and near an awfully vicious looking brute. A chill was sent down her spine as she turned her head away, and faced her pack members, who were rippling with murmurs. When were the other packs going to get here? It was quite the awkward moment with only two packs here, and the other giving Gabriel chilling vibes. Shaking her suspicions off, she sauntered to her place in the gathering. Her paws shifted as she waited, and her gaze washed over the other pack as well as her very own. "Oh, goodness," she uttered to herself. "Ancestors, please be nice."

with certainty racing through his mind, the young malinois stepped foot onto the gathering grounds, being
greeted with the sight of other kennel attendees. it was pitch black out, only the moon providing the light
they needed to keep about. he was very much looking forward to seeing the other kennels here, he wante
d to chat with everyone and hopefully make new allies. he couldn't say the same for servilia, whom was cl
ose beside him, eyeing every moving thing with extreme caution and wariness. morgan nudged her a bit to
make her less fearful, but the shetie was in her own little world, barely reacting to his sudden movement.
he would've known better to drag her here against her will, but morgan couldn't have just left her there ba
ck home alone. "chin up, servilia," she flinched as he spoke, looking at him with a hint of bewilderment an
d vigilance. "the night's gonna be great, i'm sure." he reassured calmly, which made servilia a bit more tra
nquil within. morgan gave her a small smile before trotting away and leaving her to her own devices.

the sheltie tensed up more as she watched her groupie leave her side. she was so frightened out of h
er wits that she stood there frozen like a deer in the headlights. servilia didn't want to come to the g
athering at all, but morgan insisted anyways. what was there for her to do? she knew anyone, all wer
e unrecognizable, and she doubted that someone would actually want to converse with her. the shelt
ie scurried over to somewhere secluded, away from the other canines. she wanted to hide away, but
there was nowhere to hide.

Ares / Alpha of the Night Callers / tags: open
There was an aura of nervousness around Ares as he approached the gathering. It felt odd being around so many kennels like his. He flattened his ears and Brutus came up beside him. "I will look after Agenta. Just in case her mentor gets distracted." He muttered, his dark eyes scanning the assembled dogs. Ares almost guessed that he was looking for members of his old kennel. He dipped his head to him in thanks and watched as his assembled dogs split off the mingle with the others. Athena, Hades, and Agenta were sitting near the outskirts. Eros passed him with an anxious glance and Hector did the same. Artemis had disappeared into the crowd and the only one left by his side was Brutus. The alpha took a deep breath and nodded his head. "We should find the other alphas." He said, trying to keep himself calm. Brutus nodded his head and the two made their way into the crowd.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Summer led the small group towards the gathering place the ancestors had told her about. The group moved swiftly in the night and Dimitri was barely visible. Tobias was walking next to her and the other dogs were following close behind. Summer had one thing on her mind: establish her territory borders and give off the impression that she was not one to be messed with.
Soon the pack of dogs came to the clearing, where two other kennels already resided. Immediately, Summer scanned each kennel, neither of their scents familiar to her. She noticed that the group that resided near a giant boulder were very brutish. The dogs there looked like they could and would start a fight with anyone. They were intimidating, well to a weaker dog of less rank. Summer led her group of dogs over to the center, so everyone would see them. "Hmm, not many dogs here yet."

Kaiser nodded. "We must have caught the beginning. I'm sure other dogs will show soon."

Tobias looked uneasily at the group by the boulders. "Who do you think they are?"

Summer replied "I don't know, but they should be of little concern to us. It smells like they live in a dirty city. Nowhere near us." She laid down and everyone else settled too.

Tobias/ Irontooth/Male/ 91 moons/ Tags: Sage, Boom, Reena, Beverly, Raj of Falling Leaves
Tobias said "I'm going to see if the other kennel knows of them. I'll be back." He walked over to the other set of dogs. Tobias greeted them. "Hello. I'm from the Swinging Blades kennel. Tobias is my name. Who's your alpha and what's your kennel's name? Also, I was wondering if any of you know the other kennel at this meeting? The one by the rocks?"

As Tobias walked away, more kennels show up.

Denali led his group down the path shown to him by the Spirits. Slowly looking at his surroundings, he, Kade and Ari eventually made it to a large opening filled with dogs. The scents smelled full. Not like the clean, crisp scent that Denali's group brought from the tundra. The scents from the other groups overwhelmed the small Ari and she bounded up and down excitedly. "Can I go look around?" She yipped eagerly. After a look to Kade, Denali nodded, sending Ari bounding off into the distance. He chuckled and spotted a group of important-looking dogs. He stood up tall and made his way over, nodding and sitting next to them.

IndentsssPepper paused at the edge of the alley, dogs whispering behind her. The darkness seeped around her, only occasionally broken by thin trees with stars attached to the top of them illuminating the pathway below. Off in the distance Pepper could hear the gentle barking of dogs in conversation. The gathering. She tentatively lifted her dappled nose and breathed in the frosty night air. They were almost there. Her tail lifted in a slight wag and she was off, racing through the desolate passageways, the soft strumming of paws behind her. The sound of dogs gradually came louder until the reached the opening to the junk yard. Dogs of all shapes and sizes filled the clearing before her, discussing things among them selves. Pepper took a deep breath then strode into the clearing. She imstantly spotted a dog she knew all to well. Summer, Alpha of the mangy Swinging Blades, the ones who took Luca.

Agenta / Tenderpaw / tags: Xena

Convincing Athena that she was capable of talking to other tenderpaws without her mentor's supervision. She stared down at her and said, "I may not be watching you, but everyone else is", to which Agenta rolled her eyes. There were a lot of downsides to being the alpha's pup, but the fact was that she got to go tonight and her siblings got left behind. The young tenderpaw held her tail high and made her way through the dogs, all with strange scents, until she saw a tenderpaw that almost looked her age. Granted the stranger was already bigger than her, but that didn't matter. Agenta padded to her and tilted her head. "Hello." She said simply, "What's your name?"

( ❝ atlas, leader, 31m, brute, shiloh shepherd, tagged ; diablo, bullet. )
though he and his kennel had travelled far to attend the gathering, atlas was anything but tired, his hackles raised with anticipation and very slight alarm at the sight of so many canines in one place. sure, back when the city was full of people there had been dogs roaming everywhere, but the sheer number of different pelt lengths and colors and sizes was astounding to him, and he did his best to keep his composure even as he padded to the place where the other leaders had seemed to gather. his paws were made hard by the rubble that his city composed of, and he stepped over grass and fallen leaves easily, finding it a rather welcome relief, as opposed to the concrete that he'd grown accustomed to. atlas approached a pair of brutes, his tail twitching lightly. "hello," he addressed diablo and bullet. he'd heard bullet's words, and replied accordingly with his own introduction. "i'm atlas - the leader of the wall street wolves. you've surely never met us, we're quite far off."

( ❝ lark, warrior, 24m, fae, siberian husky & german shepherd, tagged ; kade. )
lark's tail was wagging practically nonstop, her tongue lolling and her eyes bright with excitement. she was antsy, despite the long trot from the city to here, her paws itching to run, to jump, to do something. slightly behind her, andy gazed at her with wide eyes, his pupils flicking from her to the clusters of dogs everywhere.

"don't get lost, kid," lark told andy over her shoulder, grinning at him once before disappearing into the crowd. she had set a brisk pace, and skidded to a halt as she saw a rather friendly-looking brute who sat near the edge of the clearing. she approached the brute with a wagging tail, her heterochromia standing out. "hello," she chirped brightly, a grin lifting the edge of her mouth.
