A Tale of Two Packs: Sky-Dogs (RP Thread)

[sunhorsestar]

OOC: @Alita: What do you mean?

IC:


SARIEL | Den Mother/Hunter | Starris | Tagging: Dyson | Location: Meadow


Sariel dipped her head to him. "You find someone through their scent, through their voice, or by asking around, just the same you would on earth. Only here, our senses are stronger," She explained. She paused for a moment, thinking back to when they’d first met an hour or so ago. "I never got your name," she realized after a moment. "By what name may I call you?"


GRACE | Former Alpha's Mate | Starris | Tagging: Willow, Fawn | Location: River


Grace half closed her pale blue eyes to block out the worst of the dirt and debris. Whether or not it stung her pelt, she would keep going. She was the mate of an Alpha, and she was and had been a mother. A true mother never stopped when her young needed her, and Grace had not borne Willow, but the young she-wolf was every bit as worth the effort, every bit as precious to her as her own two daughters were.

"Give her back!" She snarled at the other she-wolf, voice dripping with venom. Nobody stole Pups, and certainly nobody stole Pups from her. If she could not save Willow, she would call back on her mate and assemble a small army to retrieve her. "Willow, can you try to free yourself? I know you’re in the river, but I can swim, if you free yourself, I’ll bring you back to shore!" She wasn’t far now, but she wasn’t sure how much her fur would drag with the water if she needed to swim.

Willow/female/newborn pup/Location: River/Tags: Fawn, Grace/Starris
Willow kicked as hard as she could at the muzzle of the unfamiliar wolf. She started paddling her legs and swan to shore. She of course couldn't use her back right paw. She heaved herself onto shore and Grace came running over.

Fawn/female/3yrs old/Location: River/Starris/Tags: Willow, Grace
Fawn felt a strong kick and she let go of the pup and she felt pain shoot up her muzzle. She then realized the pup was gone. She went up to shore and didn't see the pup or the she-wolf anywhere. She whined and followed a scent trail to find them.

OOC: Like, when you first starting posting with your characters here, you said it looked like the Lightning and Fire Pack territories, but without a divide. So let's say, instead of going TO that, a new wolf turned around and ran the other way. Would there be a point to where they couldn't go any farther, like if the earth irl was flat, or is it just like ours, where if you went in a straight line you'd just end up right back where you were eventually, or would it be like a Minecraft world, where there's just land forever?


Dyson | Former Loner | Starris | Location: Meadow | Tagging: Sariel

Dyson tilted his head, and took in a breath through his nose. It was true! Now that he thought of it, the she-wolf's scent was almost overwhelming. Or, it would've been. For some reason, it didn't bother him one bit.
"That's amazing." He commented, trying it once again.

"My name is Dyson. As I said before, I went by Ido most of the time down in Earth... I hope no one remembers me." As he said the words, his brow furrowed. "Maybe it's best I stay away from other wolves... in case that happens."

[sunhorsestar]

OOC: It'd be more like there’s land forever. It has seemingly endless space to house the thousands of wolves that live there, for it stretches across the whole sky.

SARIEL | Den Mother/Hunter | Starris | Tagging: Dyson | Location: Meadow


"No," Said Sariel with a firm shake of her head. "It’s a pleasure to meet you, Dyson. You should not fear the other wolves. Any wolf here has light in their heart, and if you are here even after crimes, it means the sky-dogs think you deserve your second chance, and should any wolf here question that, then they’ll have to answer to the eldest sky-dogs, who will most certainly have things to say about it," she told him.

She’d seen Daniel, who’d killed his own sister in cold blood, and nobody but Fish had ever questioned him, and Fish was an oddball to say the least. She questioned everything that didn’t make sense to her. She was the only one Sariel expected might challenge him on anything, and even there, in the end, Fish seemed a relatively friendly and relaxed wolf.


GRACE | Former Alpha's Mate | Starris | Tagging: Fawn, Willow | Location: River


As soon as Willow was in the water, Grace plunged in without hesitation, grabbing the small pup's scruff and hauling her back to shore. Relief washed over her. What is a she-wolf who would kidnap another's Pup doing here? That alone is a crime. She didn’t release Willow, rushing back towards the meadow, then beyond it to the forest. There were more places to hide there, though Grace was well on-alert now that she knew someone wanted to take the little pup. Finally, the light brown she-wolf set Willow down on the soft moss.

"Are you okay?" She asked, crouching in front of her and licking back the fur between her ears. "Do you know that she-wolf?" Probably not, since little Willow had died so young, but the more information she had, the better. At the very least, it surely couldn’t hurt to ask, right?

[Alita~]

OOC: Do you have any characters who Dyson could've actually killed? I can just imagine him seeing one, then having a flashback and stuff.


Dyson | Former Loner | Starris | Location: Meadow | Tagging: Sariel

"That's good then... There has to be so many wolves here that have died under mine or Chiren's claws... I hate to think about it." He glanced around, and raised a brow. "Which way is this Lolan?"

[sunhorsestar]

OOC: I have literally dozens of dead characters with no backstory. Are you looking for one who would just kinda be there, or one who would be spiteful about it?


IC:


SARIEL | Den Mother/Hunter | Starris | Tagging: Dyson | Location: Meadow


"No wolf should bother you much about it here, and if they do, we simply report it, and Fire and Lightning will take care of it when the chance next presents itself, depending on who's Pack said wolf used to be in," Sariel promised. That was how things had always been. Was it foolproof? Nope, not by a longshot, but Fire and Lightning decided if they wanted a wolf in Starris, so most obeyed them when spoken to.

"If memory serves, his den is this way. He spends most of his time there, with his two sons, Mano and Kai," Sariel remembered. Lolan rarely had things to do, so she expected he’d be around and willing to teach. He’d always liked teaching what he knew in his life.

[Alita~]

OOC: Not anyone who'd be spiteful for a long time. Maybe surprised and fearful right at first, but I'm not really looking for any long-term drama.


Dyson | Former Loner | Starris | Location: Meadow | Tagging: Sariel

"Fire and Lightning..." Dyson echoed. "Those sound like they'd be the two original wolves, who made the packs?"

[sunhorsestar]

OOC: Okay, I gots the perfect one! It's a former Lightning wolf, a childhood friend of Shadow's who was named Spark. He went out one day on border-guard alone when he was her Beta, and died of unknown causes. He’d be kinda bitter, a bit wary, but he knows how to keep his emotions under control.

SARIEL | Den Mother/Hunter | Starris | Tagging: Dyson | Location: Meadow


Sariel nodded with a small smile tugging at her lips. "That’s exactly who they are. The founders. They’re not around a lot, but one can call on them when they’re needed. You could consider them Alphas of sorts, but they’re not totally in control. They don’t set up guards or perform ceremonies, and only give orders to the sky-dogs when things violate the rules, or when things get out of hand," She explained.

[Alita~]

OOC: Oh wow that is perfect! Do you wanna skip to when they find Lolan? I'm not sure how well Dyson or I could keep up conversation :'D

[sunhorsestar]

OOC: Whichever you think would be better, I can work with.
