Second Post = Rankings and Members
Third Post = How to joinAbout UsIn the Valley, there are two packs. The Swift Storm Pack and The Tall Grass Pack. Each with their own personality and each with their own way. Our packs are different than most as Ranks and Pack Laws yet the bonds are just as strong. Our RP times are usually in the afternoon Eastern Coast, US. This will most likely change on depending when others are on and events. This Wolf RP was founded by Arrosia at first, but Jessie Dagger (Naomi) and OkariCheetah have helped. (OkariCheetah is making our LOVELY map. I thank her very much.)
Our website: www.thestormygate.proboards.comThe Swift Storm Pack: These wolves are lithe, and are usually smaller than the other pack but they are just as deadly. They live in the expanse of forest and trees in the Valley and are always cautious around their rival pack. They are clever little wolves and know how to trick others when needed. They have long legs but they don't do many long distance runs. They can sometimes climb certain trees such as oaks or willows. It makes them strong jumpers and graceful swimmers.The pack is led by their leaderwolf, Arrosia.
The Tall Grass Pack: These wolves are bigger, yes, but their bark is worse than their bite. They can usually be hot-headed compared to their smaller and clever rival pack. They live in the expanse of plains and are used to the heat of the sun. They can run long distances easily without even breaking a sweat. It makes them good hunters and their size makes them good fighters. The pack is led by their leaderwolf, Naomi.
In the end of course, they are both equally matched.Plot
Pure fear has shaken up the packs as more and more prey starts to leave the Valley. Few Upwalkers at a time have entered the Valley as well, scaring the remaining prey to go farther and farther away from the packs. Tension rises as prey begins to be fought for. Droughts seem neverending, the heat is everlasting. What will become of the packs if these horrific events continue? Rules
