:[:West Island Tribe:]: -- Leadership positions+Map! Member count:[12]

[Haruki]

The West Island Tribe of Santa Catalina Island, a small band of wolves that were cut off from their mainland timberwolf cousins. With a steady climate and a bountiful supply of food, the wolves were able to slowly evolve to match the challenges and advantages of their new home. Almost a century has passed and this emerging species is thriving. The West Islanders are of Neurtral alliance, but leaning more towards the good side. They are of survivalist mentality, and will retaliate when provoked.

This tribe isn't meant to get too large, about 10-15 individuals. The territory and den can accomidate up to 25 at maximum. I mean for this tribe as a causal roleplay group for fun. A way to make friends and get involved. :3

Overall Assignment ;; Hunter
Sex ;; Male
Species ;; CIW
Age ;; 13+
Mate ;; None.
Offspring ;; None.
Personality;; He is a funny, outgoing kind of wolf, always willing to lend a hand and help others.  He loves helping others through their problems and is extremely laid back.  He finds himself listening more than talking, but he's fine with that.  He loves being active and concentrated on one thing.  He dislikes having nothing to do, and if he doesn't have anything to occupy him, he'll become very disinterested and bored.  He's very loyal (to a fault) to those he respects, admires and privately dubs family.  Once he is friendly with the leader of the pack, everyone therein becomes family to him, as well, with few exceptions.  His emotions are either "love it," or "meh," about anything and he works hard to make sure nothing and no one falls into the "meh" category.

Character name: Teiya

Sex ;; Female
Species ;; Catilina Island Wolf.
Age ;; 13+
Mate ;; None
Offspring ;; None
Personality;; Fun, calm, and loves other animals. She has a less open exterior than most, but she's likes talking about nothing.  She also prefers cultured conversation and will easily get bored with just chit-chat. She won't say anything if she thinks there is nothing to say, or she will state. "I don't know how to respond," which is her way of saying, "I can't think of anything to say/change the topic."  She's very forward about her opinions and affections.  If she likes you, you'll know it, if she doesn't, you'll know it, and if you don't know how she feels about you, it's because neither does she.  She's very protective of Kei, who is her family/adoptive brother/close friend. Or something to that affect.

When night falls, he makes his way into the water. No one really knows why, but it has become a strange hobby. Some say that Zuul is quite the mystery, others say lazy and immature. There is no right, or wrong.

Lorin

Ingame username ;; Tawny
Overall Assignment ;; Pup
Sex ;; Male
Species ;; Catalina Wolf
Age ;; 6
Mate ;; --
Offspring ;; --
Personality;; Pleasant and friendly, though he carries a lack of confidence that is common for young creatures. He is wary of strangers, cautious and somewhat quiet by nature, meaning he doesn't tend to speak to those he is not familiar with until he starts to feel comfortable. Only then will the other party earn verbal responses. However, he is a sociable creature and goes where there are people, only settling when he is close to another Tribe member even if he does not know personally, though does know better than to stray too close to those that he is unsure about.

:[:Territory:]:

The territory is located on the west end of Catalina island, in the jungle region. It has less land claim, but richer fishing and slightly safer waters. They are, and have been for quite a long while, in an ongoing tension between themselves and the east end of Avalon (This area is gonna be donated to another pride/pack to claim as their own. Roleplay shall be teh shiz.)
Here is a map reference; Blue being West Island, Green being Carpe Diem Pride, Red being unclaimed as of yet. (Area known as "Avalon".)
http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/7610/catalinaterrain.png

The island of Catalina itself is near other island, with other tribes inhabiting them. Because of the abundance of timber on the islands, the tribes have learned to make canoes for trading, transportation, and foreign outreach (mostly on the parts of the higher ranked). But things definitely haven't always been peaceful; The islanders are still recovering from the Catalina x Clemente war. Amazing, that the feuding west and east sides united to fight.

Here are the surrounding islands.

[Smilodon]

That would be cool and thanks for adding me :3.

[Kamaete]

I'll make a wolf for this, but I can't see the link you posted.  Otherwise, it'd be fun to join~!

[Haruki]

Oh my, I would very much enjoy that. :3

I have a female wolf I just created as well, if you want a girl instead of a guy, but I'd rather RP a guy.
Also, I looked at your map, and OHMIGAWD it's beautiful.  It's gorgeous.  I'm jealous and just might have to apply to claim the other territory. (I'm kidding, because I don't even have a pack. :C But it is so~ beautiful!)

Oh--is he too dark?  Please tell me, and I'll make him lighter! C: The female I have looks and acts like him, but she's a lighter, peachy-strawberry-brown.

[Haruki]

Aww, thankya. x3 I worked a lonngg time on that map.
If you're serious about that offer, you should totally start a pack. ;3
And nah, I like him. :3 He looks darker in that photo, but I noticed that its just Sly's mod you got thur. xD
Apply the female as well if ya like! The more the merrier.

Anywho. Added.
I get home about 6:00 pacific time, so we should roleplay ingame then you guys can. :3
