The Wild is a land of forests, mountains, large rivers, plains and unforgiving weather. Springs are wet and muddy. Summers are warm, yet fleeting. Autumns are the swan song of easy times. Winter is the reaper that culls those without support or strength. Despite this, life has a habit of flourishing in The Wild. Wolves are the most dominant of the species that inhabit The Wild. Numerous, strong, and smart, there is not much Wolves cannot accomplish when they work together. However, the Wolves are split into differing factions. On the best of days, most packs tolerate the others. On the worst of days, all out war can erupt between the packs. More than a few Wolves have aspirations of uniting the conflicting packs, allowing the Wolves to truly rule The Wild. Different societies, different values, different ways of living, and different tactics prevent such a lofty ideal, though. This won't stop certain Wolves from trying. The Wild is unforgiving, punishing mistakes with brutal efficiency. Those that learn to respect, and live within, The Wild are the only ones to survive. However, there lies a realm even more dangerous than The Wild. Outside the nurturing of life of The Wild, there exists The Beyond. Not many have ever traveled out of the safety of the region, and even fewer have returned. -------------------------------------------- This is a thread where you play as a unique member of a pack of wolves (or potentially another species altogether). All animals in this setting can speak, and understand one another. There will be an over-arcing plot to the entire thread, which many players will be given more than enough chances to becomes a big part in. However, this thread is still considered to be 'Slice of Life' -------------------------------------------- This thread will [b]ALWAYS[/b] be accepting new players.
