Rules
- Wolves: All wolves die at age 20 but you can kill them off earlier if you wish. They may start breeding at two and you can have wings.
- Posting: Posting must be over five lines/sentences long. I understand writers block but don't make one-lining a habit.
Each post must be 150 words or more. We may let the odd 120 post or 100 post slip by but we will know if you make this a habit.
Spell check is your friend. Don't be afraid to use it. I use it all the time.
Post in third person unless your character is speaking. This is a very strict rule and will be enforced.
No posting in character until your character is approved. - Inactive Accounts: Post in the Inactive Board if you are going to be away for more than three days.
No posting and your away for more than two weeks (Previous issues with computers, etc that I know about, then you're safe. No need to worry about this. Same with people who post in the inactive board.) and if you are challenged for lands, females etc, you automatically forfeit. A further month of inactivity you will be sent out a notice and then deleted from the site. You may rejoin of course. - Character Names and Display Names: No curse words for names and display names. You may have your display name different from your wolves name(my wolf name is Shayne but I can have my display name as Torn Demonic Angel)
- Signatures and Pictures: No huge pictures please. Some of us may be on dial-up and it's horrible to have to wait for it to load.
Signatures may be whatever you want but if you wish for it to contain your wolf info, here is a small guide.
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Mate:
Pups:
Rank:
Alignment:
Element: - Ranks: King or Queen: The highest in the pack. They may breed with any wolf in their whole pack lands although this is not advised, and what they say goes. They choose the Alpha of the other lands and they are the most respected pair of the pack
Alpha Male or Female: The chosen leader of the pack from the King or Queen. They may breed with any wolf of their pack only(not advised) and they only have power of their chosen pack.
Beta Male or Female: The Alphas chosen pair to lead when they die or when they have to go somewhere. They are respected but if they betray the Alphas, then the Beta pair will be slaughtered.
Elders: They are old and wise, normally the leaders go to these wolves for advice.
Males and Females: They hold no special power over the pack. They make up the majority of the pack.
Pups: The youngsters and future of the pack. They are not too special unless they are the pups of the leaders or second in command.
Spirits: The dead of the pack. The Code-word is: 'I loved you once before you betrayed me.'
Rogues: They wish to be part of no pack and live in their own lands. The first Rogue that steps on the Rogue lands becomes leader yet they always act as if everyone is leader. - Alignments
Darks: Feared by the Lights they are dark creatures. They feed of the hatred and pain of others, as well as the fear and agony. But they are not without cause, they can be nice to other darks.
Lights: The sweet and gentle creatures, these wolves live in harmony with others. They can be fearful of the darks as there is usually more darks than there are lights, but again they can fight for what they believe in. They are nice to every wolf and even try to turn some darks toward the light.
Neutrals: The indecisive creatures, or most commonly referred to as the greys. They are neither on the light, nor the dark side. They enjoy each others company and the company of both lights and darks. - Breeding and Birthing
Breeding and birthing is done in season only and the mother may make the puppy profiles. Limit is five in a litter and there must be a runt. Please wait seven days before giving birth. They must be done in the appropriate threads. - Claiming: Lights claim lights, darks claim darks and neutrals claim neutrals unless stated in the post.
Kings, Queens, Alpha Male and Alpha Female can claim and they may allow the Beta pair to claim.
Queens and Alpha Females are allowed to claim! - Elements: As King or Queen you may have six, Alphas have five, Betas have four and the rest have three. There is many different elements so just find one you like ^^
Some Elements:
Electricity- a wolf can make an electrical charge come out of the sky or out of the ground weak agianst some wolves.
Fear- To put fear into another animal that was not currently there, darks use this to scare their prey and other wolves.
Ice- Ice second form of the water element, but it is not a water element. It freezes the foes and can make them die, or it can make the surrounding area very cold.
Fire- Fire wielding, weak against water. They can control fire just by thinking of it.
Water- Can pull water out of the ground, they are weak against any earth element wolf.
Earth- can have one friend, be it a rabbit or an eagle. They can shape the small lot of land, make things grow. But do not have the power to shapeshift like most think, they can however talk to all animals.
Air- air is all around you, you can use it to your advantage in a fight or simply if you wish to fly.
Telepathy- you need to have permission to use this on another persons cara first, or you can use it to catch stray thoughts that are ungaurded.
Pain- a dark wolf's element, this gives others physical pain in a mental state. Though it depends on how strong you are to how effective it is.
Shadow- you can move through shadows, spying on others. But be ware it is draining physically and mentally.
Healing- You can heal others wounds(with there permission)
Tourment- A sort of Telepathy, you can show others pictures of dead loved ones. Or of other things...
Illusion- to make something that was not there, you use the earth to help. But it is not an earth element.
Shape shifting- to shape into something that is not your true form. (into only two animals per chara no humans unless stated otherwise.)
Spirit- you can talk to spirits that have had the element spirit, if the wolf did not have the element the wolf is lost forever.
....................For kings and queens..................................
Magic bending- only kings and queens have this for it is sorta a power play that binds all powers and makes the victim have no powers, usually they only use this power when a wolf does an unforgivable offence.
