This is where all the extra information goes. Stuff like Mating and Birthing seasons, ranks, breeds, ages, etc. These follow both realms so don't worry, we aren't going to make it harder than it already is.

Ranks WILL be earned in the roleplay unless they've been pre-planned with someone and you've contacted Eve or Sifura about it. Otherwise your rank will be determined by your Alpha regardless of which pack you're in.

• Alphas- The leaders of the packs. Obey them and your life will be long and easy in their packs. They are usually the strongest or the wisest, and are usually between the ages of 2-9.
• Betas- The second in commands. If anyting should happen to the Alphas and their blood-lines, then these are the wolve who take over, be wary of them for they are normally ambitious and will do almost anything to become Alpha, however obey them as well...theyare normally skillful and caniving and could easily report you to the Alphas.
• Deltas- Mainly here to keep order in the pack when the Alphas and Betas are not availeable.
• Shaman- The Shaman wolf is the healer. Normally wise and intellegent in the area of healing. They are allowed one, and ONLY one litter of pups.
• Shaman Apprentice- When the Shaman feels he/she is close to their time to move on they will take in an apprentice they see fit to become their pack's next Shaman.
• Elder- The oldest and wisest wolves of the pack. Deeply respected and often sought after for their wisdom. Sometimes called StoryTellers from their knowledge of the past.
• Warrior- The warriors of the pck are normal members, but ready at any time for an attack from any other pack, bears, cougars, or any other danger. Normally bulky and large, few are fast, but they're all strong and great fighters.
• Hunters- Sleek, fast, cunning, skillful, and of course stealthy. These are the best of the best in hunting. They do the main hunting for the pack, but for special occasions (mating feast, birthing feast, death feast, ect.) the wole pack will go hunt together.
• Maiden- Females who are nursing their pups or expectant. They are not allowed to hunt or fight unless under dire circumstances. It is their mate's job to bring their food.
• Pup-Caretaker- usually just one, they are ready and prepared if anything happens and a Maiden has to leave their pups. This is the wolf trusted to watch the pups.
• Omega- The lowest of the low. Virtually no priveledges and often better off as a loner. Not many of these in a pack.
• Exile- A wolf exiled from their pack. Three claw marks on their left cheek will mark them as such. Often become Rouges.
• Rouge- A lone wolf. Dangerous and cunning, not to be trusted by anyone.
• Loner- A lone wolf. Usually a traveler. They aren't too dangerous and often seek to join a pack.
  

• Mating will ONLY happen during the fall. This is the normal mating season for wolves. If your characters mate before or after the season, more than likely your pups won't survive the winter.
• Birthing will occur during the springs. Approximently 4-6 weeks after the wolves have mated, according to real world time to the roleplay time. A female may have anywhere from 1-5 cubs in a single litter, but perfect litters are rare. Please make one or more pups ill/have asthma/etc. It can be a childhood illness or a lifelong one. If you want a perfect litter, PM Eve or Sifura. If you and your mate don't want to roleplay them all, put them up at the adoption board.

Okay, the only thing to look for that changes is the aging. Elementals are different in the ways they age. Very few are older than 100. Many die at the age of 120 because of disease, failing powers, injuries, or no teeth.

• o: No Wolf...
• 1-11 months: Pup/Cub
• 12 months-2 years: Young Adult
• 3-10: Adult Wolf
• 11-death: Elder
• A year is four seasons. Your wolf will not live forever, please age them by these times. Even elemental wolves which do live longer than Earth wolves age this way.
