Niam Wolves
Creation of the Niam Wolf
Niam wolves are an old species. They are the result of a pack, whose name is long forgotten, having four pups. One pup was golden, with blue markings. This pup was extremely intelligent, and was the first of the pack to talk. The second pup was light grey, with yellow markings. The grey pup was blind, but could heal others and understand them better then any of the healers in the past could. The gold pup and the grey pup were female. The third pup was jet black, his strange markings were green. He was a very good fighter, and could fall into states of anger and rage. In this state, he could destroy all in his path. The fourth pup was dark brown. This pup had dark red markings. The brown pup was a extremely good hunter, and could smell prey from far away. The pups grew up together, the two females sisters and the males brothers. They outsmarted, out did, and outperformed the other wolves. When they were adolescents, a new alpha was throned. He was arrogant, and hated the wolves for their skills. He banished them. Together, the gold pup mated with the black pup, and the grey pup with the brown pup. They started a pack, and the species of wolves, now called Niam wolves for reasons only guessed at, thrived. The original pack fell apart, and only a few survived. They weren't enough of them for a pack, but they tried to keep the bloodline pure. The name of the pack was forgotten, but now Niam wolves are thriving once more.

Abilities
Niam wolves follow the skills of The Four(The pups who founded the pack). Abilities are not chosen by matching the pelt color of one of the four, but wolves who do match their pelt with their Ability are slightly stronger.(Wolves get their ability from birth, but sometime between birth and the age of 8 months old they have a Realization. When they do have their Realization, they are ready to start training. Most pups have their Realization around 5-7 months old. Siblings tend to get theirs at the same time. They come in many forms, but the pups know it when it comes. They have a second Realization at around a year old, this is their secondary ability.
The Abilities are:
Hunter-The Brown wolf
Warrior- The black wolf
Healer- The grey wolf
Leader:
Leader is rare. It follows the Gold wolf. It is known that wolves with this Ability often go on to get one of the Primary Abilities as their Secondary Ability.
The Secondary Abilities are:
Sight-They have amazing sight
Smell- Amazing sense of smell.
Speed- They are the fastest runners
Speech- They can talk people into anything.
Swimming- They can swim faster and longer
Personality- They tend to get along better with other wolves.
Personality
(Note, this does not apply to every wolf, but is a guide to how they generally act. Its short because no two are the same.)
Female Niams are...
Protective
Easy to get along with
Not quick to fight unless its for the pack, mate, or pups.
Male Niams are...
Competitive
Protective of their mates/pups
Defenders
Breeding and Mates
Niam wolves mate for life. As soon as they fall in love, they never are interested in anyone else. They don't break up. They are ready to mate at a year old. Most mate at a year and half, and never mate with anyone to old/young.
Niam wolves have no mating 'season'. When a female is ready to find a mate, her markings, tail tip, and eyes turn black. Males will pick this out and one look will tell the male if thats the female they fall in love with. They always mate in the pack, with another Niam. Litters are 1-5 pups. (Avg is 3)
Application to be a Niam
(Yes, this may seem like a group application, and thats because if we get more then 5 Niams, there will be.)
