"Disquietude" Feelings of anxiety that make you tense and irritable. Previously administered by Swaggyrollie. We worked on this RP together, and I co-hosted the previous forum because of this. I do not wish for this concept to die, so I have chosen to revamp it. Two wolf packs torn through a generational vendetta, forced by mother nature to work alongside each other to avoid succumbing to an unforgiving Winter. Prey is scarce, winds are bitter, and teeth are bared. A disease is ravaging both packs, which seems to be sourced from prey as well as bodily fluids. There is little you can do to help an infected wolf other than to wish them farewell. While all will eventually perish from this pestilence, those with a weakened immune system, such as the young, sick and old tend to die out much more rapidly and catch it easier. The pestilence carries petrifying symptoms, such as foaming at the mouth, coughing blood, loss of appetite, confusion, fever and eventually, death. The packs are based on the side of the Matterhorn mountain in the Swiss Alps. Both territories combined is 43km². Süd is based on the lower parts of the territory, below the ledges, cliff faces and overhangs. It is in a valley and a glacial cirque, their dens being inside the valley. The pack’s water comes from the stream that flows through said valley. Süd also has their territory amongst the Matterhorn town, and comes across tourists and locals often, though they always leave each other alone. Norden is based at the top of the territory. Norden’s dens are near Zmuttbach and Seebach, at the northwest of the territories. The most common death among the packs is from wolves who don’t look where they are going, and end up falling into the valley. Matterhorn contains a lot of rocks, snow and ice. The terrain is not merciful to any wolf, especially in Winter when the snow is heavy and frostbite comes easily. 1. Your character needs to be realistic in most aspects. If you cannot find an image of a real wolf or similar canid (coyote, jackal, etc.) with the coat you want to use, then you can't use it. Wolves would not be capable of sign language, writing in dirt or building elaborate structures. The furthest craftmanship your wolf will be able to carry out is using leaves to hold things, tying things poorly with vines and using sharp objects to help with hunting. No more. 2. Generally, don't make your character cringy. 3. Tied into the above rule, no mary-sue type characters. Your character will have faults. 4. Make things fair and equal, keep the ratio of sexes, roles, etc as even as possible. 5. You must tryout for higher ranked positions! We want active, decent roleplays to be in major positions to prevent the roleplay dying. I want you to PM me your past roleplays (doesn't have to be on-site) as well as a rough idea of how active you are. 6. Avoid making your own characters be tied to each other (mates, family members...). 7. Wolves die from old age at 15 years old. 8. Maximum of 20 characters within each pack, with each roleplayer being allowed 6 characters total. 9. Don't fight over roles, please. 10. Maximum of 5 dispersals. 11. This roleplay is literate, you are required to write a minimum of a two paragraphs per post, and are expected to write more. If you cannot meet this standard, don't sign up; or take a break from the rp until you can. 12. Your character must loosely fit it's region. Please don't sign up to the roleplay with a North American/Asian/whatever species of wolf. This is set in Switzerland.

Alpha These wolves are often viewed as Gods on Earth, they are the best example of skill and dominance there is. They are seen as among the wisest wolves, and because of this their words are seen as gospel. Alpha's mates are considered to not be as holy as the original Alpha. Beta This wolf is specially selected by the Alpha as the most suited to take their place, the Theta may help with this decision due to their spirituality. Some Alphas are seen as 'too divine' to interact with their pack directly, so Betas fill their social role for them. Often Betas will be the pups' of the Alpha, though if the Alpha's pup is not fit to take that role, another wolf will be selected. Zeta, Kappa and Tau These wolves' job is to lead their role, and to teach juveniles their role. They are the most experienced at what they do, and often end up becoming the next Beta. The Zeta is the lead Epsilon, the Kappa is the lead Lambda and the Tau is the lead Upsilon. Theta and Iota The Theta is the lead herbalist in the pack, they often claim to have a spiritual connection and guide the Alpha spiritually. The Iotas are other herbalists apprenticing under the Theta. Epsilon, Lambda and Upsilon Epsilons are wolves that are trained in battle, they guard the pack and specialize in their strength. Lambdi are wolves that provide food for the pack, they specialize in their teamwork. Upsilons are wolves trained in stealth, they scout for predators and prey in the area. Gamma Gammas are wolves over the age of 12, they are too old to continue their duties. Gammas may help the Zeta, Kappa or Tau with training the juveniles. These wolves are treated with extreme respect for their years of service to the pack. Juvenile Juveniles are wolves under the age of two, or wolves that have not been fully trained yet. They are often ambitious, and have a passion for their chosen role. They are excited to learn to service their pack. Pup Newborn wolves under the age of one. Dispersals and Vagabonds Dispersals are wolves without a pack, that have left to form their own. Not many wolves do this, and those that do often claim to have experienced a 'sign' that they had to leave. These wolves struggle on their own and have to steal from the packs to survive. Vagabonds are dispersals who have the disease. Some pack wolves with the disease may also be referred to with this term. . The packs' passive prey consists of marmots, chamois, mountain hares, moles, roe deer, voles, rock ptarmigans, dormice, nuthatches and thrushes. Though, there are some prey who may fight back, leading to a dangerous hunt; ibex, mountain goats, red deer and highland cattle. There are other animals in the area that are not regarded as prey due to how dangerous they are, though if a member of this species is taken down, they will be eaten; brown bears, bearded vultures, golden eagles, barn owls, lynxes, barn dogs, dispersal wolves and humans.

fuck it im committing to grandma energy Name: Psalm Age: 13yrs, 5m Gender: Female (She/Her) Sexuality: Ace demiromantic Current Role: Gamma Role Aspiration: Bro she can't do anything else anymore Pack: Süd Appearence: lets pretend I know what gray wolves look like Psalm is a tall and lithe gray wolf. Her pelt is slightly paler than average, which helps her blend in with the snow covered terrain. Her muzzle is graying, and her deep brown eyes are beginning to cloud from cataracts. Her movements are stiff because of her developing arthritis. She weighs roughly 55 pounds and is incredibly bony, basically looking like someone just kinda draped a blanket over a skeleton. Her build is somewhat hidden by her long fur though, giving her body volume. Personality: Psalm is your grandma. If she were a person she'd bake you cookies every day. She greatly enjoys company and absolutely loves spending time with young pups and juveniles. Her restricted mobility and activities do upset her, since in her youth she was energetic and could hardly sit still. She dislikes being coddled, despite how badly she does need it, insisting on doing things by herself. She's developed slight amnesia in her old age, with memories of her younger days being well preserved but newer memories often are forgotten. Despite thinking she meets all the youngin's for the first time every day, she still loves them all the same. She's ecstatic to have so many wolves spending time with her. Her entire existence at this point is her just straight vibing. Backstory: Her parents were older than average when she was born, not too far off from being Gammas at the time of her birth. She grew up close to the other wolves her age, never quite growing out of her childish personality. Despite her immaturity, she proved to be an exceptional hunter, eventually gaining the rank of Kappa. Upon becoming a gamma, she initially fought the change, but accepted her new role soon enough. She Relatives: None Infected?: No. Other info:
