- Why would you like to build a pack?: I have come in love with these games and would love to use them to not only improve and grow my own writing, but possibly provide examples and tips for those wishing to improve theirs.

Pack Territory Important Features(A lake, river, mountains, forests, etc):
The pack lives in the mountains where there is a water fall that freezes in the winter, and leads down the mountain to a lake where the forested area starts.
Winter Den and Rendezvous Site Location:
Their winter den is in the mountains where, despite the cold, the pack thrives in the warmth of a cave they live in. It has different openins and outcrops in the systems that they use to separate the ranks and food.
The Rendezvous site is near the lake where there are many trees that have roots sticking up enough for them to sleep in and organize the camp. Since the rendezvous site is in the forest, it is easier to train pups and find food for the winter here.
Pack Traditions/Lore(Beliefs, important things to the pack):
The pack like to focus on tradition and celebration of life and death. Instead of grieving over losses, they celebrate the new life they have elsewhere. When pups travel to the winter den for the first time, they place their pawmark on the cave walls to celebrate their new lives in the pack and to ensure they are always remembered. This is a very caring and family-oriented pack that is very welcoming of new ideas and ways to grow numbers or better the traditions. Blue Moon Hunters prays to their ancestors whenever they need guidance because they see them as more superior pack members for crossing over.
Pack Structure(How it's run, openness to newcomers etc.):
Blue Moon Hunters keeps very headstrong on their pack rankings and what entitles what. The alphas always get first pick for things and eat first, obviously, then next are the pups and mothers. This pack isn’t like most where the betas are right after the alphas, and they put pups and mothers next because they believe the young and ones growing the numbers are more important than those that aren’t. Betas are next in line for meals, though in gathering settigs they are second to have their say and the pup mothers and pups are second to last. The elders are next, right after the betas in both regards. Their wisdom through age is highly valued and they are treasured members. Warriors come after the elders, to always back up those that have served the pack for a long time and because they are stronger and can withstand more. After that are the apprentice wolves in training to be warriors/hunters. This is to teach them discipline and patience so they can better understand how important the pack rankings are and how it functions. Omegas are last for everything, though they are still treasured members like the rest. Any members taken in that weren’t born in the pack start as omegas and must prove their worth to become warriors. Immature apprentices get demoted to omegas even if they do not complete their training. The pack is very welcoming of new members but keeps a close eye on all new until they are certain that the new wolves can be trusted, through unanimous vote between alphas and betas.
WIP, I will PM you when it is ready!
