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

- Zelda -


It was Zelda’s family and how she was raised that shaped her into the wolfess she was now. All her life she had been raised by wolves, and seen her grandfather and uncle care for the pack with little regard to their ‘position’. More and more lately she had been thinking of her title, a title that had been granted to her by Hyrule and not really one she had picked for herself. He had called her that after all, she would have never picked such a thing for herself. She never referred to herself as the Goddess, she only as the Guardian of the Forest. A title picked up by Amoxtli and her Grandfather that didn’t seem to go away. She didn’t want to call herself an alpha, she considered herself a protector more so than a leader and certainly nothing really special as a “Goddess”. Despite her lofty title she treated everyone as she had seen her family treat others despite their own rankings. Though she knew the way other packs operated, and still respected them for the most part, she didn’t want to be that way. Her treatment of others had been commented on many times by wolves, mostly from outside of Moladion, and a few times from other wolves from it, but more rarely.

The auburn and tan wolfess though wasn’t trying to flatter Talien though. She was being honest, and the wolfess shook her head at the silver fem’s dismissal of Zelda’s words. Talien was such a kind and gentle wolfess, truly someone that belonged and fit here. The situation her uncle had put her into was… unfortunate and she didn’t deserve the pain she likely had been through, but Zelda also knew Tuari, her family has been here for a while and the wolfess, likewise didn’t either. It was… an impossible situation, one that Zelda heard her mother angrily rant about so much when it had occurred. Someone was going to get hurt… no matter what. Talien was a good huntress though, and good with children Zelda had gathered as well. They were lucky to have her. Hunters were always valuable and after Jinan’s death, many of his family members spreading out in his passing and even before… well… Things hadn’t been going as well as they used too on that front. Jinan and Tuari’s family, since their mother, had always been adept hunters, Zeteri being the first Lead Hunter of Taviora. Their family had always supplied Taviora with ample food, and until Astrid came along, it was almost solly their family that had done so. Talien was welcome to help keep Taviora supplied and growing. It was one of the larger packs of Moladion after all, and not everyone could do all their duties and hunt for themselves.

Still Zelda kept her focus upon Talien, if she wanted to climb the ranks, the Focus was empty and ready for someone to take over. No one else had spoken up yet and Zelda was more than eager to provide Talien the chance to climb the ranks. What she wasn’t expecting was the wolfess to exclaim that she would do both tasks. Zelda blinked taken aback for a moment before a smile set upon her maw. ”If that is what you wish, I am sure the pack will enjoy it.” She said her tail waving lightly after Talien had explained her plan. It sounded like a good one and certainly made sense. She was sure Talien would succeed. If that wasn’t enough though the wolfess asked if there was anything Zelda needed.

”Oh? Me? No I’m alright, but it is very kind of you to ask and offer, thank you.” She said dipping her head to the other wolfess in gratitude. She really couldn’t think of anything, not now anyway, ”If I think of something though I will be sure to ask.” She added not wanting to put the wolfess’ kind offer down completely. It was just, things that were going on with Asteraia and Iromar, there wasn’t much she thought Talien could do to help, and Zelda didn’t know what to say about anything else. ”How about you? Is there anything else I can help you with before you depart?” She asked tilting her head slightly teal and mahogany cracked eyes set upon the wolfess’ own light orbs.

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 ...
