Whirlwind
This rank belongs to the closest advisor to the Lightning Queen. This wolf can block steals and accept new members. When there is no Thunder King, this rank may accept challenges. This rank cannot be challenged for. Stormfront
These wolves are the protectors of the borders and are personal guards to the Lightning Queen. They may help to gauge new wolves and are essentially the domestic protector. In certain times they may be called upon to resolve domestic disputes, but generally they are tasked with watching the borders or staying close to the Lightning Queen. At times, information may need to be brought to the Stormfront who will personally deliver messages to the Lightning Queen.

Monsoon
The Monsoon is the lead healer and caregiver of the pack. They are tasked with healing wounds, assisting with births, and making sure that the pack remains happy and healthy both mentally and physically. They may also be called upon to boost morale through storytelling or other means. They train the Rains.
Tsunami
The Tsunami is the lead diplomat and peacekeeper, tasked with protecting the pack from internal and external strife, as well as form treaties and ally with other packs in conjunction with the Lightning Queen and Whirlwind. They report directly to the Lightning Queen, and train the Tides.
Blizzard
The Blizzard works closely with the Haze, but is more of an information gatherer. They may act as a thief at times, but are largely tasked with spying and scouting, reporting their findings to their superiors.
Hurricane
The Hurricane is the head hunter of the pack. They train the Wind and organize pack hunts. Rainbow
This wolf is the joker of the pack. Their job is to bring a smile to everyone's face and try to keep a light mood. They will be tasked with caring for pups and keeping an eye on them. They are the keeper of all types of fun and games for the pack.
Gale
The Gale is concerned mostly with keeping track of the history of the pack, collecting stories and learning of events that might have happened long ago. They might tell history as stories to pups or create events in honor of those who have gone before.

Tremors

News - SUMMER
Summer has arrived. The world has been well at peace, and others seem to be trying to take advantage. They believe we are lazy and complacent. We are no such thing. Remain vigilante, friends and family.

Give your congratulations to Maiko. She has been promoted to Blizzard; she earned it.

We also have an activity check going. Please reply so I can make adjustments accordingly. Check will go for an entire month so we can hopefully capture everyone.

As always, if you have need of me, do not hesitate to find me.

foxtail

you threw stones at me
and swore that they were thrown in love

Though there is no blood on her paws from a hunt, cleaning them after eating is a habit that is hard to break, and the red wolf licks the miniscule traces of dirt from her long black legs while she listens to Tenshi. He�s hopeful, she decides, hopeful like the fatalistic Tybalt had never been. He would have assumed that she would find her own place - that he would have to work hard for her affection. It is not that she thinks Tenshi would not do the same, only that he does not automatically assume that he has to. Such is the outlook of a man raised around imprinters, she supposes; they view the world through a different lens.

She nods � she does know, and that is why she is here, in the one place that she was sure she had someone in her corner, whether she wanted him or not.

He asks if she will stay here, and Foxtail turns her xanthic eyes to the rough stone walls and worn earth beneath their feet. She does not like caves, but this one is far better than many that she had sheltered in. She does not know its location in comparison with the rest of the dens of Diveen, but she supposes that it must be a good place for Tenshi to have chosen it. �I�ll stay here, I think.� She says, and then, because there is still a part of her that doubts their unshakeable imprinting, adds: �If you will have me, of course.�

Foxtail remembers the long grasses that she and Bramble had gathered for her sister�s den, and while Foxtail does not expect puppies of her own at the present time, she had liked the softness that they had added. Perhaps she will find some for here, she thinks, maybe Tenshi will like that too. She glances back at him as he licks, and she freezes, entirely unsure how to react. There is a long moment (probably only a second or so, but it feels like an eternity to the she-wolf), and then she smiles, leans forward, and presses her long snout against his and licks softly at his cheek.

She can be happy here, she knows now.

That content thought lasts for only a moment before a growl from outside the den rips through the air and causes her heart and stomach to clench uncomfortably tight. Fate, she thinks with a shiver - will it never let her be perfectly happy?

But Foxtail is not a wolf given to stretches of self-thought, and the sadness lasts for only one beat of her rapidly thrumming heart before she is on her feet. She can see the outline of another wolf in the gloomy light of the mouth of the den, and her hackles raise at the command the stranger orders. Foxtail does not wait for Tenshi to lead the way out � she has been on her own for too long to be lead. Instead, she bolts forward in one long leap, turning nimbly to face the white wolf as soon as she is out in the open.

The new wolf is taller than rangy Foxtail, and with all the meals she has missed he probably outweighs her by nearly eighty pounds. Nevertheless, from the growling emanating from her red body, she might as well be twice his size. Foxtail�s yellow eyes do not leave the pale wolf, even to look at Tenshi. She assumes that this stranger knows her so-recent denmate by the fact that he calls Tenshi by name. The white wolf speaks of trespassing like it is some criminal offense, as though she hadn�t stopped and waited for someone to find her before entering, and as though she had ill intentions.

Though Foxtail has always been appropriately submissive for a young lone wolf, she now holds her head and tail high. �Are you aware, stranger, that nobody asked for your input?� The concept of guards is not a familiar one to the black-legged wolf, since she comes from a place where pack is a family, and not a kingdom, and there are dozens of empty miles between packs. Foxtail had lived a different life, but to be honest, she would have disliked the strangers intrusion even if they did not exist in this diglossia.

She is here for Tenshi, after all, and unless this stranger is the alpha of Tenshi�s pack (or whatever they call their packs here in Moladion � a kingdom?), then the she-wolf has no intention of backing down or begging for forgiveness from the big white wolf.
