i'm glad to see new parents falling away from that though. it's probably cheaper in the long run too, since you're not buying stuff your kid will refuse to play with LOL

how dare you develop interests in things that your gender does not align with, let me take all this away from you while you're at an important developmental stage of life and dictate what you will enjoy >:(

but you as a three year old boy cannot show feminine traits such as caregiving!!! or as a little four year old girl you cannot keep naming every single car you see on the street correctly as thats a boy interest to have!!

I played with dolls, barbies, and bratz growing up.
I still loved bugs and playing in the mud.
My older brother loved playing can age patch babies.
I leave it open to my kiddos as well.
I have dinosaurs, dump trucks, Barbies and accessories to trip over

I think I might just take a break from wolfplay until next week, I know I normally compete in the FMC, but the &am-11pm's are really going to take it out of me, let alone exploring on top of that.

But I'm super excited to see who wins this FMC

gendering toys is such a wild thing. just let kids play with whatever takes their interest - better than them being bored and annoying LOL

i refused dolls for years. like my mom had them hidden deep in the closet because id want to destroy them the moment i saw them. fam did try to get me to like "girl toys" like dolls more than "boy toys" like cars but i was firm lmao

That part of my family has always been weird, then another part.
The men, husbands get food first, not the babies.
I wish a grown person would try to eat before my kids.

If I am missing something, please PM me to add it.
Press Ctrl + F on Windows or Command + F on Mac to find what you're looking for.

Buy/Selling/Breeding:

Term: Shorthand for: Further Information:
CP character points Used to strengthen various wolf attributes to aid in explore and battle.
CL, CH Clean-lined, clean-heritage No inbreeding or duplicate bloodlines involved.
IB inbred Happens when a wolf shows up more than once in its bloodline. No effect on gameplay, defect, or boost chance.
T Talents increases the base amount of CP a wolf has by 20. Inheritable. 12T = wolf has a total 12 talents.

Can be stacked indeterminately
G Generation 1G = first generation, 2G = second generation, etc.
mush Mushrooms The prime currency of Wolfplay and used in almost all transactions.
R, RS Rarity, Rarity Score Higher rarities are made with various combinations of pelts and markings.
Dud undesirable wolves. Standards vary between each user. Often rated using rarity, talent count, boost, or defect.
Hero wolf's capability in a disaster. Rating is visible in the "Vitals" section at the bottom of a wolf's page. Having all "+" makes the wolf a hero.
BW Battle Wolf a wolf with excellent potential for battle. Is usually defined as: weight approximately 130 lbs, has hero status, and with possible gains in battle experience.
BE Battle Experience Gaining BE teaches it more battle moves.
HW Heavyweight Heavier wolves hit harder, but evade attacks less.
LW Lightweight Wolves will hit weaker, but evade attacks better.
ExH Excellent Howler Used for the Full Moon Celebration to determine strength in howling contests. Inheritable.
ExW Excellent Wrestler A stat used for the Full Moon Celebration to determine strength in wrestling contests. Inheritable.
AC All Common Eyes, nose, and base pelt are all common rarity. UC means uncommon.
POL Pick of litter. Usually the highest quality pup in the litter, or whichever one you want.
OBO Or best offer. Lets buyer know you are open for offers different than the sale price.

Auction Terms:

Term: Shorthand for: Further Information:
SB Starting Bid The price the seller begins the auction at.
MI Minimum Increase The minimum price increase from the previous bid.

EG: MI is 5 mush. Previous bid is 10 mush. Next bidder would have to bid at least 10+5 mush (total 15 mush) for the bid to be accepted.
CB, HB Current bid, highest bid Current highest bid on the auction.
AB Autobuy Instead of bidding, you can buy out the auctioned item if you have all funds available.

Defects:

(various alterations that may or may not affect a wolf's appearance or CP limitations)
Term: Shorthand for: Further Information:
Alb/Albi Albino pelt, eyes, and nose turn pale, almost white.
Amela Amelanism Wolf turns a pinkish hue.
BP Black Phase Pelt turns white over time.
Mel, Mela melanism Pelt turns dark, almost black.
Ery erythrism Pelt turns golden brown
Viti vitiligo Pelt gradually loses its color, giving wolf a splotchy appearance. Multiple variations.
Leu, Leuc leucism Pelt is pale yellow, almost sickly looking.
Chi, chim chimerism Half the wolf has an entirely different base pelt. Multiple variations.
***Note that any terms like "albino blood" or "mela blood" simply refer to the heritage of the wolf. WP wolves inherit traits only from the parents and grandparents, but any further back in the ancestry of a wolf still will not be able to pass defects/boosts on to further generations.

Boosts:

(a wolf with an increased CP cap. Instead of having a 200 CP cap, the wolf gets a 250 CP cap on a specific stat instead)
All attributes can receive a boost. For a list of boosts: https://wolfplaygame.com/forums.php?f=29&t=102


Term: Shorthand for: Further Information:
DH Divine health Wolf receives +50 health
SV Surpassing Valor Max dominance increased
CS Crushing Strength Max Battle stat increased
ES Elite Speed Max Battle stat increased, chance to do double the damage
UL Unparalleled Learning Max resolve increased, wolf has chance to receive extra BE.
GB Gaelic Blood Wolf turns green(!!)! Also has enormous Luck potential.

Majority of the people abbreviate Health points to HP. Maybe add that one on as well.

This has been helpful for me to know all of these meanings, but I originally came here to see what MI stands for.

I believe it's Minimum Increase.

For example, if the MI was 10 mush and the person before you in the auction bidded 210 mush, the minimum you could bid would be 220.

Hope I helped. ^-^

Could we possibly add more abbreviated words?

OP - overpowered wolves. Say if your wolves leave a PVP match without a single HP point lost, or they kill prey in one or two hits.

Crystaline-- I will only add words commonly seen in forums or chat.
Wolves hitting prey in 1-2 hits are fairly common and not needed to be mentioned.
