The mist - Discussion(ACCEPTING)

[Keesa]

(I don't own this image, full credit to origanal artist!)

For as long as anyone can remember there have been two packs were the ocean meets the land. Block in by mountain ranges and protected other packs who would compete for the seaside territories. For the most part the two packs ignored each other except for the occasional border squall over the years. This however, was not to last. A new and formidable entity has arisen that will force the packs to come together, or fall.

Plot:
So the plot of this role play is that there are two packs who live along side the ocean. They don’t get along very well and there have been a couple of fights over the years that has resulted in losses from both sides. Now something they call the Mist has been slowly spreading over the mainland and has taken over much of the old hunting and den grounds, forcing the packs to be in closer contact and therefore causing more fighting over land and prey. The wolves fear the mist, only one wolf who has ever entered has come out. The closer they get the more there is a strange ringing sound in their ears. Now with winter upon them, the packs can’t go on killing each other with the rapidly declining prey. So it has been agreed that the two packs become one for the time being. It is a risky agreement as now the packs are living together with other wolves that may have killed their loved ones and for the most part don’t trust each other.
*I know there isn’t much fantasy stuff right now since there are no powers and what not but trust me, that will come into the plot later! This setting is based off of a book I’m writing so I’ve got some cool stuff planned!*

Ranks

Alpha Male:
The alpha male leads the pack as a whole. He is the highest in command second only to his mate the alpha female. He determines how the pack is run, who get what jobs as well as in charge of the interactions between other packs. The alpha male is often one of the strongest members of the pack since he has to fight off competitors.

Alpha female:
The alpha female is the co leader second only to her mate, the alpha male. Her main job is to lead and organize the hunters. She determines where and how they are going to hunt and maps out where they will go. During the hunt she has more power than her mate should be listened to but the alpha male decides who gets what after a big kill. Only when she is close to or having pups will she step down for a bit and let another female take charge but only rarely since they mostly have pups in the spring when there is enough small game to not have large hunts.

Betas(Mostly Males(Only accepting male betas now)):
These guys are directly under the alphas. They are in charge of protecting the pack from any threats, rival packs, other predators, etc. They are highly respected and do have some level of authority but not as much as the alphas. Because being a beta means you must be big and strong betas are predominantly males because males have a stronger build.

Hunter(Mostly females):
The Hunters are equal to the betas. They are the hunters of the pack who bring home most of the food in during a hunt are the runners to bring down big game. This is a very dangerous job. The leader of the hunters is the alpha female. The Hunters are mostly female since females are generally smaller and faster than the males

Omega(all genders):
Contrary to popular belief, the omegas are highly important members of the pack. The job of the omegas is to keep the tension in the pack to not rise to a breaking point and to keep everyone happy. In the case of an argument the omegas are there to defuse arguments before they result into violence. They are often bullied and bossed around by the higher ranks. The Alphas will often consult with Omegas to ask for opinions on how to approach other packs and as well as for insight as to what is going on in the pack. Omegas also help with taking care of the pups.

Demoted Omega(all genders):
Different from the normal Omegas, these are wolves that were once part of the other ranks but did something bad enough to have them thrown from the ranks into the lowest member of the pack. Though technically the same as normal omegas, these wolves really don’t do the same jobs. They aren't allowed to train the pups or be part of pack negotiations. These guys mostly just change wolves beddings and den maintenance, take care of the elders, and really whatever odd jobs the pack needs them to do. This is also the stage loner will enter the pack into but these newbies quickly rise through the ranks.

Elders(all genders):
The Elders are a highly respected branch of the pack. They are either wolves who have grown to old to do their old jobs and now live out their lives in comfort or are fallen heros of the pack or are crippled to do their old jobs. THEY HAVE THE VERY IMPORTANT JOB OF STORY KEEPERS! (If you choose to be an elder I will pm you some of the lore!) Pups are spent to spend a lot of time with the elders to learn from them.

Queens(Females):
The queens are wolves who are either very close to having pups or have very recently had pups. No matter what rank they were in, during this time of having pups the females become queens who rest and are taken care of till the pups are old enough that their moms can go back to their old ranks. All queens, no matter their previous rank are very respected.

Pups(all genders):
These are pups, basically little kids who aren't allowed out of the camp till they are old enough and are taken care of by their moms, the omegas, and the elders.

Loners(all genders):
Keep these guys to a minimum, since the rp is centered around the pack. They are just wolves who aren't a part of the pack.

The Old Packs
The old packs have combined to form what they now simply refer to as ‘The Pack’. Despite the fact they are now one, wolves of one pack tend to not get along with those who used to belong to another pack and vise versa. Keep in mind, there was a lot of battles once the mist appeared and the old predisposes die hard.

Dusk Pack
This was by far the larger/stronger pack who was winning the fighting before the packs became one. Even before the mist they held most of the territories and haven't suffered as much losses of their original land from the mist as their rival pack. The Dusk Pack's alpha is currently the alpha of the pack since his members make up the majority of pack.

Dawn Pack
This pack is much smaller than the Dusk pack but its members tend to be very strong willed and proud. Even with the uneven odds they were willing to fight till the end. They suffered a devastating loss when the mist appeared, losing many members as well as their camp.
*If your alpha was the previous Alpha of this pack put Beta/Alpha or Hunter/Alpha under rank. Since you aren't technically an alpha anymore but the members of your old pack still treat you like one*

Rules!
No power playing
No killing other people's characters without permission

the prophecy(Might change, will add more when thought of!)

Herald the kestrel's call to arms
a friend will take up the cry
to grieve the new days coming
and to release those left behind

and only when the son does set
to winter to secure the dawn
the daughter may raise to spring
and restore an ancient wrong

For in the darkness were the light dare not go
weak spirits make cast their deal
but to those who seek another truth
may find something real

As the true enemy lies in wait
The known evil is not what they seem
Clear of sight be the god’s chosen
And with them be redeamed

[Keesa]

Name: ScarletHart(Rook) - his real name is rarely used
Image:
(I don't own this image, full credit to original artist)
Nicknames(optional): Nobody calls him by his real name, he's better known as Rook, after the bird. To those who don’t like him the nickname Barren is used, mostly behind his back as a stab to the fact he has yet to have pups.
Personality: Rook is a very strong, opinionated individual. His pride has never let him stand aside and let things happen, he always has to be in the thick of. He can also be very unforgiving, that's not to say that he's cruel which is not the case, just very strict and gets annoyed quickly when others don’t immediately follow orders. On the other hand his punishments are usually minor and fair considering he is running a very large pack, with no room for doubt of his control. As a leader though, Rook exells. He is confident and proud and is also very good at keeping the pack organised and busy. He knows when to punish, but also when to praise when they deserve it. Rook’s biggest flaw is that he will almost never ask for help, even when he needs it. This element of his pride makes him keep his feelings from others and will often leave his feeling to build in silence till there just about ready to tear him inside from out. He feels that he can’t make mistakes or else his whole pack will turn on him. Instead as they are now, hes not sure how much he can trust these other pack wolves, despite the fact that the union between them was his doing.
History: Rook was always very ambitious. When he was little he grew up with a lot of brothers and sisters and would lead/boss the other pups around. His parents were the previous alphas and though pedigree doesn’t determine rank in the pack it was clear even from a young age he was destined for leadership. By the time he was 3 another alpha had challenged and won against his father though only a year later Rook successfully managed to win against this new wolf. Strangely, though he has been alpha for over a year now he has yet to choose a mate and his mother has acted as alpha female. Because of this rumors have arisen that he can’t have pups and that is why he hasn’t chosen a mate. One day, after the fighting began to get really bad Rook and his mother left for the Mists, Rook being determined to find out what the strange fog was and why it was so dangerous. Rook was the only one to return and since then has refused to talk about the incident.

Nicknames(optional): none yet, feel free to give her some!
Age: Unkown but its thought to be around 5 weeks old
Previous Pack: none, loner
Rank: puppy
Rank wanted: legendary hero of the world
Personality: She is a happy optimistic pup who is so far blissfully unaware of how bad the world has gotten around her. She wants to be the very best at everything and loves to play and learn. She does have a short attention span how ever and is prone to wandering off then not knowing where she is.
History: Blossom just kinda showed up a couple days after the packs merged. This isn’t a very uncommon practice of if a loner has too many puppies or simply can’t take care of them they will sometimes be left near the packs dens in hopes to be found. This is what happened to Blossom but she doesn’t remember anything that far back so she doesn’t care. As far as she's concerned the pack is her family,

Rank: none
Rank wanted: none
Personality: unknown
History: Unknown, the strange wolf is always seen waiting at the edge of the mist. Nobody knows who she is or where she came from and it is said that she can disappear into thin air. Being a very beautiful wolf there have been instances of foolish young males following her into the mist and never coming out. She just sits and watches but has been seen to completely leave the strange fog.

Name: Chestnut

( I don't own this image, full credit to origanel artist!)
Nicknames(optional): she sometimes goes by Chess
Age: 4
Gender: female
Previous Pack: dawn
Rank: hunter
Rank wanted: Queen(But wouldn’t admit it)
Personality: Brash and somewhat vain, Chestnut is always trying to find a way to work herself to the top. It's not quite that she likes giving orders, but because she has something to prove to the world. Most of the time she’s just being arrogant and annoying, but deep down, there's a good wolf in there somewhere. In truth when she's trying to convince others of how great she is, it's just another way of trying to convince herself.
History: When Chestnut was young she was extremely close to her twin sister Hazel. The two did everything together, told eachother everything, even fell in love with the same wolf, a strong and dashing beta. It was clear he was interested in both wolves but ended up choosing Hazel after the she wolf told him about Chestnuts insecurities and other unflattering stories. Heart broken by losing both the males affections and by her sister's betrayal Chestnut became the cruel guarded wolf she is today. Her sister later passed away on a hunt and her mate was killed by the dawn pack. It's still her secret wish to one day be a mother.
Family: Parent are dead from old age. She and her sister were their last litter
Mate: none but wants
Crush: open!

Name: Rowan or MountainAsh
Image:
(I don't own this image, full credit to origanal artist)
Nicknames(optional): none but feel free to give him any you want
Age: 4
Gender: male
Previous Pack: dusk
Rank: beta
Rank wanted: he's happy where he is
Personality: Rowan is a soldier through and through. He is loyal to a fault and follows orders without question. Given the choice he would gladly die for another pack member or kill if it meant helping his pack. Still, his stubborn loyalty and ideals mean he is very slow to trust these new wolves, who he has trouble seeing as anything other than strangers taking advantage of his packs hospitality. Rowan does worry if his loyalty to the individual will interfere with his loyalty to the pack. If someone were to challenge and put his adopted brother in danger he isn’t sure if he would be able to stand to the side despite pack law.
History: MountainAsh, like Blossom, was born to loner parents whose litter was too big to support all the pups so he was left just outside of camp. Being only about a day old, SparrowSong took in the pup as one of her own and he was raised alongside Rook and their other brothers and sisters. As he grew older he was very protective of his new family and can be touchy around mention of his loner origins. Because of this he can be very defensive and hostile around loners. Rowan is still very close to Rook and knows him better than almost anyone. He is however, very worried for the alpha’s welfare as he can tell ScarletHart is keeping something from him and the pack.

Image: (I don't own this image full credit to original artist!)
Nicknames(optional): none yet, feel free to give him some!
Age: 3
Gender: male
Previous Pack: none
Rank: loner
Rank wanted: loner
Personality: For a loner, Alder is surprisingly friendly and innocent. He likes his own company and has no interest in joining what he considers to be the cramped and controlling pack. Choosing instead to go his own way and do his own thing. Recently however, he has grown very lonely and increasingly on edge as his roaming territory shrinks and the mist keeps pushing him in closer and closer to pack controls lands. Torn between needing companionship and giving up his freedoms he feels at wits end about what to do leading the normally happy go lucky male to be a bit unstable.
History: Alder likes more then anything is to be in control of his life, which as of late has not been happening. Growing up in a litter with four other brothers, Aster has faint memory's from when he was a young pup of a fifth sibling but has no idea what happens to her. He traveled with two of his brothers after leaving his parents. About a year ago one brother found a mate and the other disappeared, presumably to join another group of loners Alder didn’t like. Now on his own he was living in a nice cave by a creak until the mist showed up, driving him east towards the ocean. Despite traveling with his brothers for a while they stayed close to the mountains and this is his first time so close to the packs, though his parents taught him how to recognize their territories. Scared but hopeful, he is currently trying to stay under the packs raider and wait out whatever badness is trying to ruin his peaceful life.

Rank: elder/loner
Rank wanted: good were she is
Personality: Mahdra is a disrespectful ,wise, sassy old lady who may or may not be crazy.
History: Nobody knows where she came from though it is rumored she came from across the sea. She lives in a jettie known as spirits end, hidden in the cliffs on the far side of the territory. Though not much is known about this mysterious wolf but even the mist is wary of her. Long ago Mahdra was outcasted by Shunkaha and cursed never to join the spirit pack and any wolf with a strong connection to the wolf god will instinctively distrust her.
Family: Long dead. At this point she just kinda pretends everyone is her grandkids.
Mate: long dead
Crush: nope

Other: Her spirit companion is a Raven named Idrah, who was one of the original raven spirits. The two have a strong connection to the Raven deity.

Name:Snowflake's Nightmare
Image:
Nicknames(optional):Nix, which means snow
Age:6
Gender:Female
Previous Pack:Dawn
Rank:Queen/Alpha
Rank wanted:Alpha Female
Personality:Nix is cold outwardly, but reasonable. She has a slight anger issues, but uses logic as often as she can. very down to earth. Imagine that a person is a town, then she has a tough outer wall around her town. It's hard to get to know her, but once you do she is loyal up until the very end.
History:Nix was the only surviving pup of any of her parent's litters, and lived a comfortable life in dawn pack. She grew to be a great hunter, and though she was a female was an even better fighter, even though she had no wish to climb the ladder, happy to simply be a great hunter. Eventually, Nix fell in love with the beta, and he with het. He soon took her as his mate, and then won a fight against the alpha, making him become the new alpha, along with Nix. they lived peacefully, and she was heavy with their first pups when the fighting with Dusk pack started. Her mate died in the fighting, and she was left as the sole alpha, leading the pack as her mate did, for she refused to take another. When the packs joined, Nix allowed others to lead, taking a quiet role as a queen for her upcoming pups, who are soon to come.

Accepted thanks for joining!
Though Nix couldn't have been a beta if she was alpha female since the pack has to be run by a hunter and a beta, sorry, I can make a new position of lead Beta if you still want her to be a beta but still have held a position of power if you would like.

(Its fine, ill edit that to say hunter tommorow, but I cant right now.)

parents were from Dawn Pack before they fled
Rank:
- beta
Rank wanted:
- Alpha--but in her own right in the alpha male position
Gender:
- female

______________________________________________________________________________

Word description of apperence:
Rain is a grey wolf has a sturdy build which is why she is one of the few female betas.
Her fur is grey at thetips of each strand but before that it is white giving her the illusions
of being a plain grey wolf. She has grey blue eyes which are the colour of a stormy sky
and is what her name is derived from
______________________________________________________________________________

Personality:
Rain is very intelligent and slightly manipulative and won't hesitate to use other wolves
in the pack as toys for her grand scheme for power and victory. She specialises in strategy
more than the actual fighting and is the first to come up with a strategy for a battle or
a hunt.
History:
She is littermates with Blazing Flame and as the older of the two was forced to grow up
quickly when their parents were killed by the mist after leaving the pack they had originally
been from in attempt to protect their pups which backfired as their three cubs had to fend
for themselves as just pups and her brother Shifting Stone didn't survive a moon after their
death which is something she still beats herself up on. As a result of this she has become
quite hard and her personality has been radically effected by this and she wants to prevent
any more harm from happening to her friends or her family

______________________________________________________________________________

Word description of apperence:
Blaze is a pale grey wolf tinges of red to it with long lean legs which are made for
running. Her fur is mostly grey-white but each individual hair is tipped with red . She has
blue eyes are innocent and give her a trusting look.
______________________________________________________________________________

Personality:
Personality wise she is the more innocent of the two littermate as she was babied quite
a lot by Rain even though they are the same age. Blaze also is very sweet and trusting almost
to contrast with her sister however there is a reason other than her fur to her name and if
you mess with things that she cares about she won't keep her ire a secret.
History:
She has the same backstory as Falling Rain however the way her older sister protected her
meant that she was never disillusioned with to the same extent as Falling Rain
