Get with me if you want to move up in rank. I'm going to change up the pack tasks for a little change of pace.
Congratulations to Adrian on her promotion to Governess. She will handle the guidance and teaching of our young pups in Iromar.
If you have a ^ next to your name, that means you're up for promotion so see me or send me a message on Discord so we can see where to move you. All others interested in specializing or getting a rank, let me know so we can figure out how to make that happen.
The pack board has been updated. If you wanted to remain a member, let me know either on here or Discord and I'll get you back on the board. Otherwise, let's have a thread!
I know I had a couple replies for the training with Spirane so I will be starting that thread soon. Stay tuned!
I am still working on an alliance with Diveen and Asteraia so stay tuned. If you have any information or would like to help, please let me know. If anyone has any ideas to promote activity within the pack, also, let me know. I am open for plots and such! Meanwhile, thank you all for your continued support of the pack.
To Take What I'm Owed IP: 50.255.120.158 Posted on March 8, 2016 at 03:04:09 PM by Tithe
Tithe
To take what I'm owed.
Pay me my dues.
Iromar had been a long time friend to the mountains and those who had lived in it. Whether that was still true or not was a completely different story, and a question that oddly did not burn in the knight’s consciousness. There were other things that pressed against his mind. So much so that he did not notice that he had begun to wander the boundary between the river and the moors. The instinct of not entering another’s land was strong and kept him a respectful distance from the territory line, his paws sinking into the cold wet shores of the Alpos river.
Downstream a song echoed through the air. Iron plated ears swiveled to pick up the lyrics and Tithe tilted his head in curiousity. Aithne sang of so much in this single moment that the man was curious about what else there was. He raised his own head and lifted his own voice, requesting permission for a conversation as his paws continued to carry him down the path of the river. Long legs carried him with ease swiftly over the border, where he sounded another bark to let the Empress know he was there, he was coming, and he was pure in his intentions.
He stepped over the border and shed his rank, his title, and his ambitions. By the time he approached Aithne he was only who he was; Tithe. In her presence he lowered his body to the courteous bow in respect to her position and title. “Empress Aithne.” He greeted in his smooth, clear voice, head bowing even lower. Respects shown, he lowered himself to the ground and settled himself in a laying position. It would have been a challenge and taken skill to spring into attack from his pose, but easy to roll and to flee in case she attacked him. It was a position of calm and peace, obvious that he meant only to speak and the power was in her hands, just as he was in her lands.
“My name is Tithe. I know we are strangers, but I was hoping we could speak just as we are. Wolf, to wolf.” He looked up at her from his place on the ground, silvery iron eyes shining from his darkened face. “All else set aside, save for our core. Interested?”
The man readied himself. He knew it was an odd request, one that few wolves would take lightly. The trust it would take in such a situation was a lot to ask, particularly of an Empress. Watching her, he was fully prepared to leave at her words if she demanded it but hoping she would consent to a conversation.
Monarch
Pretty simple, Alpha of Iromar. Ultimate authority. What I say, goes.
Chief
The 'Co-Alpha'. He is her equal and has all the same authorities as she does. He is be respected and can take challenges and block steals.
Deputy
The Beta of Iromar. The most trusted wolf under the Alpha. Has all the same authorities of the Monarch in her absence. Second in command. Can block steals and take challenges.
Council
The advisor to the Monarch. One who's wisdom is often sought in matters of politics and war. Not necessarily an elder but someone the Monarch looks up to.
Trooper
The head warrior of Iromar. Shows the most skill in combat and has experience to back it up. Trains the soldiers and serves as their direct supervisor. Can block steals.
Stalker
The head hunter of Iromar. Shows the most skill in hunting and providing for the pack. Tasked with leading pack hunts and teaching the pups of the pack at designated times. Trains the hunters and serves as their direct supervisor. Can block steals.
Medic
The head healer of Iromar. Skilled in herbs and emergency medicine. Tasked with checking on the Monarch/Deputy after a challenge and also keeping up with mothers around birthing time. Trains the healers and serves as their direct supervisor. Can block steals.
Envoy
The head diplomat in Iromar. Skilled in matters of politics and conversation. Intelligent and witty, this wolf keeps the pack together as one while reaching out to potential allies for support. Council is their direct supervisor. Trains the diplomats and serves as their direct supervisor. Can block steals.
Governess
The guardian of offspring in Iromar. Skilled as a warrior and alert as a scout, this wolf is tasked with probably one of the most important jobs in Iromar, protecting the future of the pack and Moladian. They can watch the litter while the parents are off doing tasks, hunting, or just enjoying some quiet time. Can serve as guides for the pups, like having a full time guardian. Trains the teachers and serves as their direct supervisor. Can block steals.
Snoop
The head spy in Iromar. Skilled in maneuverability and blending in, this wolf must be a shadow when called upon. Tasked with finding out information about other packs or wolves when called upon, this wolf must be quick as well as witty, able to make anyone believe anything. Also serves as a thief when the need arises. Trains the spies and serves as their direct supervisor. Can block steals.
Chronicler
The head story teller of Iromar. This wolf has done their research on all things Iromar and Moladian. They can give a good history lesson or spin a tale on demand when the younger minds call for distraction. Able to captivate an audience. May even help with speeches for the Monarch when necessary. No one to train but the pups or even adults of Iromar when they have questions or curiosity about the past. This wolf may even be called upon by the Council at times. Can block steals.
Soothsayer
The seer of Iromar. This is a special rank made specifically for a wolf with "the sight." Consider her an advisor/spy of sorts for the alpha and rest of the pack. She/he can gather intel from outside or supernatural forces. You don't have to believe in the magic of this ability for any wolf with this rank will be respected as a ranked member of the pack. Can block steals.
