The Wild Hunt Territory

The Royal Family's Den and Throne Room

To get to this den, you have to reach the other side of the ravine. Using the Bone Bridge to reach the den-the bridge was naturally formed by Mother Nature herself. The Bone Bridge is covered in a variety of animal bones. Yes, even remains of deceased wolves. The den's entrance is huge and so is the inside of the den. The inside of the den has enough space to fit over 20 wolves. In the way back of the den, is the Throne of Carnage-made out of stones and with a bear fur draped over it. On the top of the throne is the skull of the First Emperor. To the left of the throne is the den meant for the royal heir and mate, and everyone but the royal guards is forbidden to enter. To the right of the throne is a den for the royal family: the royal offspring, close family, and the royal wet nurse. Same as before, you're forbidden to enter. Towering over the throne is a balcony with a den which is meant for the emperor and their consort. To get up on the balcony, you have to use two staircases made of uneven terrain on either side of the throne. As for lighting, luminescent stones, in a variety of sizes, are scattered throughout the throne room and the two dens.

The Royal Guards Den

The Royal Guards Den is set next to the exit to the Bone Bridge, making sure no one crosses the bridge without permission. The den is only big enough to hold 8. At the back of the den is a big hole that has a clear view of the entrance to the royal family's den. The nests within the Royal Guards' den are the fur of the first predator-based animal they killed. Outside the den are a stack of rocks: four on the left and four on the right. On top of the rocks are the skulls of the first 8 royal guards. For lighting, when it's the day, the Sun shines perfectly inside through the hole. Once the night arrives, smaller luminescent stones make the inside lit up. The Royal Guard den is the 3rd largest, coming in after the Healer's den.

Healer's Cave

The 2nd largest den after the royal family's, meant to hold a lot of wolves for medical purposes. Located between the squires and chasseurs cave, not far from the entrance. Inside is spacious but lacks any vegetation-besides herbs that are collected. The herbs are gathered with the help of bats that has their little room where they sleep in. Originally, the Bat Room was meant to grow herbs, but due to the infertile soil, nothing can grow. Same as the royal guards, there's a window, but it's only big enough for the bats to fly in and out. Luminescent stones are mainly in the ceiling, lighting up the entirety of the den. The only room that has no lighting is the Bat Room since they prefer the dark. Two dens are inside, next to the small window: the one on the left being the Healer's, and the right den meant for the two apprentices.

The Knight, Soldiers, and Squires Cave

Located on the left side of the Healer's den is the cave meant for the fighters of the pack. A large circular cave, with an elevated stone directly in the center, is meant for the knight. The more older and experienced warriors sleep close to the elevated rocks. The rookies and weakest members sleep away from the elevated rock, hugging the walls of the cave. A quiet hierarchy within the fighter's rank, and one you have to pick up quickly unless you get punished. There are multiple cracks in the ceiling, allowing sunlight and moonlight to seep through to light up the inside. Only a small amount of luminescent stones are seen on the elevated rock in the center. Across the entrance, on the other side of the elevated rock, is a tunnel that leads to the training arena. The training arena is rectangular, with a flat surface surrounded by walls that are covered in dried-up vines. There's no ceiling, allowing the Sun and Moon to shine directly in the center of the arena.

The Shikari, Nimrods, and Hunters

The inside of the den used to be filled with bountiful fresh water and land-a small lake inside the cave. The water left, leaving the litoeral land behind. On the land are dead trees and shrubs, a small memorial of the plant life that used to grow there. Along the wall of the beach is a den made from fallen trees that are held together by deceased vines. This den is for the Shikari-only them and experienced hunters are permitted to enter. The experienced hunters sleep on the island, outside the Shikari den, while the recruits sleep off the island, the small but of land that once stored water. On the right side of the island (a good distance away from the Shikari den) is a tunnel system that leads to the very bottom of the ravine-the training ground for the hunters. The tunnel is a rather long journey,-inexperienced hunters are known to get exhausted during the trip. The ceiling has cracks in the ceiling to allow lighting in, while the tunnel to the ravine is lit up by glow stones. This den is located on the right side of the healer's den.

The Nursery

A den across from the three major roles, a cave meant for pregnant females, nursing mothers, and pups. The nursery isn't anything special, a decent amount of space-big enough for the pups to run and tussle about. Nests are made of fur and bones, with the smaller bones being used as chew toys. When the pups no longer need milk, their mothers may return to their respectful dens to carry on their duties. Thralls babysit the pups until they're old enough to become Unmarked. If the Thralls were to lose a pup, their punishment varies depending on how important the pup's family is.

Unmarked Cave

This cave is located beside the thralls cave, this is for the pups that finally hit the age of 1 and have no official rank just yet. Big enough to fit a total of 15 with ledges and small holes in the walls to sleep in. In the center of the cave is a singular large, rotten tree that's quite creepy to look at. As for the ceiling, there's a huge hole in the center of it-allowing light to shine directly on the tree. If you're a good climber, you're free to sleep in the tree, but I wouldn't recommend doing it.

Thrall's Cave

Their cave is located the farthest away from the entrance to the cave so they won't be able to sneak past so easily. Their cave isn't anything of importance, meant to hold those who have no purpose for the pack or prisoners that are deemed untrustworthy. They're tasked with cleaning up the place, amusing the higher ranks, watching the pups, and used as puppets. Their cave is tight, with barely enough space, so you're brushing against someone all the time. The ground is uneven, with little to no lighting, and the worse place to sleep.

Highest Ranks

Emperor/Empress (1/1)

Those who hold a position of power over their subjects, as they are responsible for leading pack hunts, establishing territory and ensuring its safety, accepting strangers into the pack, or driving away despicable wolves. To maintain order and control, the leader must take many precautions to make sure the pack isn't disturbed. They're always the first to eat from a kill, getting the biggest portions and the best cuts. As a rule, the pack is told what it should do, where they need to go, and how it should work. They demand respect and are in the position to punish or banish those who do not show it. Their command can not be disobeyed without consequences.

-Dragoslav (Cereal)

The Royal Consort (0/1)

Locked for now.

The mate of the emperor/empress should always be treated with the same amount of respect as their mate. If they have no chosen heir, they're free to take over the pack while they're gone. If you disrespect them, then you're second-handly disrespecting your ruler. If you value your tongue, keep your words tightly sealed. They have the same amount of responsibilities as their mate, but only if the mate were to leave for whatever reasons.

-Closed

The Royal Offspring

Locked for now.

The children of the current ruling family, but the royal heir gets more power than their siblings due to their level of importance. Instead of going by the firstborn, they go by the strongest pup out of the litter, so picking the heir is quite a difficult task.

Royal Heir and Heir Consort

Princes and Princesses

The Royal Family

Locked for now.

Close relatives of the emperor/empress, and can be next-in-line if they're no heirs to the throne. If there is no available heir, consort, or royal offsprings, and the current ruler was to leave temporality. They're free to take over until they get back. However, only the oldest member of the royal family can take over the throne at that given moment. They're the deltas of the pack.

Mid-Ranks

The Royal Guards (1/8)

Personal protectors of the royal family and only express true loyalty to their beloved ruler. These wolves are handpicked at a young age and have to go through difficult courses to become this rank. They cannot be challenged and are considered closet allies to the royal family. Insult them, you're insulting your beloved ruler. They know the territory at the back of their heads, are experts when it comes to survival, and masters when it comes to fighting. Surpassing the knight-commander when it comes to fighting. If they were to die, their offspring can take over their rank and have to go through the same training.

Forum

"I don't tolerate foolishness and cowardice. If you can't handle one measly battle-you're not worth my time."

Name:
Dragoslav

Age:
6 Years Old

Gender:
Male

Rank:
Emperor

Desired Rank:
Satisfied, indeed.

Apperance:

(credits to Fall-of-rain on DA)

Dragoslav is a large and muscular male, with a height of 7 feet and a weight of 175 lbs. With him being large, he has to be careful with how he uses his stamina. For an odd thing to say, Dragoslav is pretty to look at, even though he can rip out your throat with ease. He has a light-cream-colored coat with eyes as blue as the cloudy sky. His left ear is torn halfway, but he pays no mind to this scar. In his case, having scars is honorable and will show stories of fascinating battles. His body is decorated with battle scars from harsh training and small, forgetful wars. He's not afraid to show off and share how he got them. Dragoslav's nose has a rigged scar on it. On his neck are teeth marks he got from the previous emperor that he killed. Cherishing his neck scar like it's some sort of trophy.

Personality:
He's ambitious as can be and wants to expand the limit of his power by any means necessary. You see the sunset as something beautiful to gaze upon while he sees the far distant lands as something conquerable. Once his eyes are set on something, he wants to have it, even if it means killing off his kin for his own greedy needs. His father tried to sway his aspiring mindset, wanting him to believe that it was his imagination playing tricks on him. Indeed, Dragoslav did have an odd sense when it comes to mind. He thought about taking over this pack that was filled with lazy slobs. Soon, his daydream became a reality when he finally had the strength to do it.

Every ambitious king has flaws, with his main flaw being that he's paranoid. Believing that everyone will stab him in the back if they got the chance. To keep himself safe and sane, he keeps his distance from other members unless required to interact with him. Most of the time, he's in the throne room or roaming around the pack territories to make sure no one is having any secret meetings. He wasn't always like this, but after he discovered what his father did, his heart and mind has become isolated. Only trusting a few wolves, and barely sharing how he feels. This makes it hard to flirt with him as he'll shrug it off and walk away. Dragoslav is gullible when it comes to love as he doesn't prioritize it.

His main love is towards the battlefield, and the craving to make someone's life miserable. Mainly towards those he names as his enemies-looking at you, The Golden Sun. What he fails at flirting, he's an expert at making one's mood turn bitter. It all occurred when the previous emperor grew lazy and undesired in making the pack stronger. Dragoslav sees the true potential the pack can bring, so he volunteered to take over the pack. Known to be merciless towards those that dare try to stop him from his goal. He would forget about the ones he deems unhonorable. However, he would respect those that show true valor and bravery during battle. His father joked that he was born on a battlefield, though his joke could've held some truth.

Only a few dare to approach him, which is a wise thing to do. He has a time limit until he explodes in rage-might end up killing you in a fit of rage. Dragoslav is hot-headed and tends to snap at others who annoyed him too much. Mostly, when his plans either fail, or he doesn't get what he wants. Childish outbursts, others may think, but it goes deeper than that. Being born a bastard and working tirelessly as thrall, could drive one close to mentally snapping. Having little to no parental advice, he doesn't understand how to cope with extreme emotions and so resides in expressing anger. Those who he's close with can approach him. Funnily enough, only one wolf he's terrified of is one of those few.

Strengths:
+Expert when it comes to fighting as an ex-member of the royal guards.
+He's quite strategic and will not run blindly into battle. He observes his opponents first.
+Has a high pain tolerance which can be hard to take him down.
+He's known to never give up on what he craves and will take it. No matter who's in his way.

Weaknesses:
-If angered too much, he'll go into a blind rage and will not only harm others but himself.
-Has a hard time trusting others, making him paranoid a slight bit.
-Can get jealous if someone has something he wants. Distracting him thanks to his mind making plans on how to get it.
-He's slow thanks to his large build and has an average amount of stamina.

Likes:
+War
+Power
+Expanding
+Very few wolves
+Obdeience
+Hard-workers
+Snakes
+Honorable foes
+Chaos

Dislikes:
-Laziness
-Cowardice
-Weaklings
-Defiance
-Thralls
-Childish wolves
-Peace
-Most wolves of his pack
-The Golden Sun

Affiliations:
Amaterasu: His childhood best friend that he awkwardly has a crush on. These two have a bond unlike any other, and the only wolf he truly fears. In his eyes, she's light to his darkness, but he won't admit that in person. Dragoslav isn't good at showing or receiving compliments, so he would accidentally insult her as an attempt at flirting. She doesn't seem offended by it, and truly understands what he's trying to do. Yes. She'll laugh at him and he'll snap at her, but that's what they've always done with each other. Amaterasu is the only wolf he'll begrudgingly accept when it comes to addressing him without using his title.

Kin:
Lavinia (Sister): WIP

Crush:
Don't ask about it.

Mate:
Oh, please.

Offspring:
Open

Other:
Tomatoes are gross on burgers. Fight me.
