Announcements as of July 28, 2021

I have called you, and you have answered my call --

Do not mistake my silence for weakness, my forest kin. For I am willing to defend you with my fangs and claws, until the days come when am no longer able to. Keep an eye on the borders for Zelda and her sister Midna, because I will welcome them back into the flock on the day of their return.

The flood has left our forest home in a sorry state of disarray. I shall not tolerate this. Summer is here and we must rebuild our dens in time for winter. There is a lot of hard and dirty work ahead of us. But we shall face it together, as family, as a pack. Let's get back to work and then we shall hunt. I hunger for a feast.


From your new Alpha --

Moonshade, the Gravekeeper of Moladion

My brothers are seemingly gone, and I know that this is my time to venture off alone! I am honestly not used to being away from my family, and I do admit that I find my pace slowing as I turn my head around to look back upon the den. I feel a bit of wariness coming over me, but no sooner do I look forward at the great forest before me and feel another push to explore the world with my very own lavender eyes. MY small form dashed forward, my tongue hanging out of my mouth as I clumsily make my way towards...well, something. I honestly don't know!

My parents probably would not be happy with me running away. I wouldn't be surprised if Father was following me right now, silently upon his grey paws just to make sure I am safe, but perhaps I made it away! I just want a little time to myself for once, a little time to see the world by myself and not have to influence of my family around me. I mean, I have THREE brothers, AND my parents. That is...a lot! I hardly know what alone time is, but I am destined to get it right now!

My brown paws bound me forward like a little rocket on the soft mossy floor. I do not know if there are dangers lurking, for my young mind is rather ignorant of them. I just know that the world is filled with this amazingly large things called trees. I find my small form stopping to look upwards, rays of summer light coming to dance upon my form and glimmer upon my smiling maw. I am not the most aware thing in my young age. I am rather taken with the subtle movement of trees ahead, the leaves slapping at the light and taking my attention far away.

It was then that I heard something not too far off. In fact, I could see through the trees a creature of the sky attacking a smaller land creature. I find that my form shifts, ears falling back a moment as I lift a paw up. I am still rather far away, but I have NO idea what just happened.

Yet it was kinda cool. That bird just swooped down and GOT that creature. Not thinking about my own safety, for that was hardly a concern of mine right now, I let my ears flash foward again, my lips parting as I mouth "Cooool"softly to myself. I decide I want a better look as it flies away, my excited form bounding forwarding as I avoid roots and large ferns. As I head towards the direction that the bird was in, my lavender eyes spot someone else here in the woods. I slow to a stop, my form perked as I look upon her darker form.

I stare at her for a moment, still quite a distance apart. There were maybe five or six big trees between us, but I can see her so clearly in the amazing light of the sun filtered through the tree tops. I feel completely drawn to her, but honestly, I would be drawn to any puppy. They were potential friends, right? I puffed out my chest a little, my brown paws marching right up to her, smiling the whole time as I pass one big tree and then another until I am only one big tree away. I pause, my tail wagging gently behind me as I dip my head slightly, holding it for a moment as I blink my lavender eyes. I then yip, my whole form completely perked because I think I have met the cutest girl in my life. Granted, I have only met my mother, but...but she is just so amazing as I look at her. I bite my lip for a moment, trying to think of the words to say...and then I just...say it!

"Hi..." I say with my head twisting a little. "You are cute! Do you want to be my friend?" I ask hopefully, my whole form swaying slightly in a bit of shyness. I had said it! I take another bound forward, with no more trees between us, as I await her answer to become official friends.
If only you knew...

THE FOREST RANKS

THE GRAVEKEEPER

The Alpha Male of Taviora. He will accept all challenges and block any steals. He has taken an oath to protect all within the forest, alive and dead.

THE KEEPER OF SECRETS

This will be Moonshade's chosen co-alpha. They will also be able to accept challanges and steals in order to defend Taviora.

THE KEEPER OF TRUTHS

This rank will belong to the chosen heir of Taviora. This wolf will probably share Moonshade's blood. This rank can be challenged for if you believe that you are a better candidate for the job.

THE FOREST COUNCIL

Although the Alpha's have the final say in all matters, Taviora is still a pack, we are still a community. These wolves are the most senior members of our ranks. Their role is to guide, serve and protect. All of them have earned their place here and they should be respected at all times. Every position on the council can be challanged for by a subordinate pack member. However the council has the right to block a pack member from gaining the position if they have concluded that the individual has placed their own selfish desires before the best interest of the pack as a whole.

THE TUSKS

The packs lead fighter. One of the strongest and bravest in our ranks. They will answer the call to protect the forest if either of the Alpha's are absent.

THE JAWS

The packs head of defence. They are our chief hunter and guardian to all within the forest borders. They know every inch of Taviora and every wolf within.

THE HORNS

The packs most senior teacher. They are responsible for teaching and guiding all of our young and new members so that they will reach their full potential.

THE EYES

The packs trusted informant. This wolf spends a lot of their time outside the forest borders, keeping their eyes, ears and nose peeled for news or potential trouble. Due to the secretive and dangerous nature of this rank, only a wolf that the pack can trust with their lives will obtain this responsibility.

THE DARKDWELLER

This is Taviora’s Head Healer. This wolf is responsible for treating the pack's wounds, injuries and illnesses. They are also expected to be one of the first on scene when a mother goes into labour. Along with their counterpart, The Soothsayer, they will train future healers for the service of our pack and our allies.

THE SOOTHSAYER

This is Taviora’s Head Counselor. Their knowledge of healing and herbal remedies are equal to that of their counterpart, The Darkdweller. This wolf specializes in helping us conquer the unseen demons in our heads and our hearts. They are also expected to help bring all children of the forest safely into this world.

NIGHTWATCHERS

Our trusted packmates that guard the borders while the rest of us sleep safely in our dens. If something is amiss within our lands, they should be the first to intercept any threat and call for back up when needed. Some might not call themselves soldiers, but they will spill blood if push comes to shove.

DAWNSTRIDERS

The most diligent and selfless of our pack. They are up at first light and leave our inner sanctum every few days in search of prey. They hunt far and wide in order to make sure none of us go hungry. While not out hunting, they are free to relax or assist the Nightwatchers, Daylightres or Dawnstriders with their tasks.

DAYLIGHTERS

This group will make up the bulk of our pack, they are our beloved family. They are generalists and commoners who are charged with looking after the most central and sacred parts of our home. Along with The Horns, they are expected to watch out for our children. We are happy to keep all within our ranks that love and respect the forest of Taviora.

DUSKWALKERS

Rumoured to be the most free spirited and independent members of our pack, they guard when no other eyes are available. They wander down all the winding dirt paths and have been known to explore into the freelands. They are envoys and ambassadors who assist The Eyes with their duty of keeping us all safe.

ANCIENT PINES

These wolves are older and have retired from active service. We thank them for all that they have done for our pack, however long or short their tenor was. They shall live out the rest of their years with the best food, shelter and company we can offer them.

THE BRIAR PATCH

This is the name for Taviora’s nursing mothers and their litters of puppies. Once they are born, at least one parent is expected to temporarily step down from their role in order to raise their pups for the first 6 months of their lives. An exemption can be made if another mother is willing to look after the young while the parents resume their service to the pack.

THE SAPLINGS

Too big for the briar patch but not yet old enough to be called a daylighter. These are all puppies between the age of 1 and 3. Pups can start their training from 2 and above if The Horns has found a suitable Mentor for them.

THE WELCOMED

These wolves are welcome within our borders anytime of the day or night. Blocking their access will be met with disapproval and possible punishment.

THE BANISHED

They are enemies of our pack and their presence will not be tolerated within or near our home. Those caught in contact with a wolf on this list will likely share the same fate.

THE SACRED TOMBS

Our brothers and sisters that have sadly left us for their next adventures. We give thanks for their lives and we send them on with all our love, hopes and dreams. Moonshade will accept the bones of any wolf that has ever called Taviora their home and will find them a special place within our hallowed grounds. Every burial mound is individual and sacred. Tampering or messing with one will not be tolerated. A crime against the dead will be treated as though it has been committed against a living pack member.

Remember, we are always watching from the shadows ...
