Feel free to skip ahead if you like. I would predict most of the pack's reaction to Sabine to be similar when they hear the full story.

Dear Mr Curly,
I have done little travelling lately because I have been so dreadfully weary. Can it be true as the old Ecclesiastes said; that all things lead to weariness? Surely not. Perhaps the opposite is true: that all nothings lead to weariness. I have a peculiar feeling, Curly, that I am worn out from something I haven't yet done and the more I don't do it, the more exhausted I become. How strange. Could it be something I haven't realised? Perhaps it's something I haven't said? Something I haven't finished! It must be very large and true whatever it is and a lively struggle in the doing but I look forward to it immensely. I know I need it. First, however, I must curl up in my chair and sleep deeply with the duck. Perhaps I'll dream of this thing and wake up refreshed and do it. My fond wishes to you Mr. Curly, and to all Curly Flat.
Yours sleepily,
Vasco Pyjama

P.S. Not having breakfast can make you weary. That's for sure!

Sabine's ear quirked when Lorag spoke again, but his words were not apparently calming. Sabine sat as she had been, softly whining, though at least she wasn't getting any worse now. Instead of responding with words, Sabine gathered up enough control in her mind to lift a hand and wrap her fingers slowly around Lorag's wrist. She held on tightly, not quite enough to hurt, but enough that Lorag could not walk away without dragging her along.
She tried her best from then on to claw back calm and control. It took several minutes of sitting still, holding Lorag's arm. After what felt like a long time, even if it was just seven or so minutes, Sabine began to transform back into a Breton in the same foetal position as she had been in. Her grip loosened, but she did not look up from her knees just yet.
A muffled voice squeaked from her. She tried hard not to sob, and failed a couple of times. "Could you get the others? I...I do not want to move. I am sorry."

Fair enough, Capy. You'll have the editing rights to remove Susa from the wiki at any rate.
As for images, ehhh...it's a bit of a gamble to rely on cropping, though it may still be viable. Computer Vision gets smarter every day, especially in Google.
We'll give it another day for comment.

Sabine curled up on the ground and hugged her legs in her arms when Lorag backed off. In that moment, she did not know how to answer him. Every thought of regulation techniques that she was taught were blanked out behind the turmoil. The only place her mind went naturally was to get a warm hug from Meesei but now that thought just made her feel worse.
"I want to..." Sabine stopped to whine and bury her eyes in her knees. "Do not...know...do not...know...hurts..."
From the moment Lorag had let go, Sabine's emotional state was getting progressively worse.

Again, it took another long moment for Sabine to speak. "Should...tell...others...pack..." Her breathing began to speed up again for a moment. "...Scared..."
It was all Sabine could manage in her current form. Everything was flying by without her being able to keep track.

Sabine could barely even understand Lorag's speech at first. Her mind was so clouded by all that was happening that she didn't even think to process the words until about ten seconds had passed. The focus made her breathing begin to steady as she remained up against Lorag with her eyes shut. She was still too anxious to turn back.
After at least a minute, Sabine finally regained the faculties to try and speak through her snout. "She..." Sabine virtually sounded choked. "She...hit...me..."
"Yes, that sounds like a good idea," Fendros said. He gave Ahnasha's hand a quick squeeze before beginning to stand up. "Meesei seemed on the edge when she left. I am worried about how she might have reacted."

Sorry for the double post. I've looked for another wiki site myself and some things pretty quickly became clear.
1. It should go without saying that a private wiki will make it necessary for everyone in the RP to sign up and get the wiki curator to add them as an authorised member. This is a bit of red tape that may get tedious when/if others want to join and don't know much of the lore.
2. People who want to join or at least get to know the RP cannot get properly informed via the wiki unless they contact us first. This will result in a barrier to entry for new players.
3. I cannot guarantee that any private wikis will allow transfer of administration rights. This may mean that one person has to be responsible for adding people. If that person is busy, access will be delayed for upwards of a couple of days. If they leave the RP, the wiki will be inaccessible to anyone new.
In light of this, I am leaning more towards a public wiki for the sake of convenience. It will mean that we will be have to be careful when handling images taken from elsewhere around the internet, but that's probably an easier trade-off than a mire of bureaucracy.
However, whatever you write in the wiki will be under a creative commons license. This is as opposed to having NO license on RPGuild. Anyone who wants to use their intellectual property for other things will have to go through and remove what they want from the wiki and here themselves.
Any comments, questions, or otherwise? I'd like to have input from others about this.

Sabine did fling the door open and disappeared with echoing footfalls, leaving the door open. She sprinted through the streets, at first in simple fear, but then with difficult, spasming breaths. As she ran, she felt wet pins down her cheeks and on her shoulders as her vision began to blur. She wiped away the tears, and still they came, with stifled sobs. Eventually, a jutting flagstone made her stumble. She had only scraped her knee but it put her over the edge.
While trying to stand up, crying into the street, she transformed into a werewolf without her full control. Her beast form had grown over the years to be just as imposing as most of the rest of her pack. No longer was she quite as agile and lightweight. Fortunately for any onlookers, Sabine had just enough control to navigate safely -- albeit rapidly and fiercely -- to the abode of the nearest member of her pack. It happened to be Lorag this time.
She showed herself with flat ears, her tail between her legs, and sounding soft whimpers. She did not try to speak, even if she was capable of it at the time. She merely pressed her head into Lorag's chest, sat in place, and continued to whimper and whine.
Fendros sighed and looked up. At least Ahnasha was being patient with him. "Maybe that is the issue. Knowing what constitutes an enemy." He brought his eyes on Ahnasha and conceded. "Look, I think we are talking past each other. I don't know how to say this differently right now. But, for now, if you are willing to agree like you say, we could leave it there. I might suggest mercy every now and then, so if I do, and it's against your wishes, know that I'm not trying to put you down, okay?" Fendros offered a wider smile and put some humour on his voice. "It's just my thick skull. That, or I'm trying to beat your score when we spring ambushes."

No, the licensing concern is something to keep in mind. As long as we know what we can get away with, we should be good. If we can't get away with what we want to put on the wiki, we'll have to go with one that isn't WYSIWYG.
Firstly, we maybe will have to be more careful about pictures we get from around the place. If someone asks wikia to take down the wiki due to copywrite, we may not get much warning before they nuke the whole thing.
Other stuff will regard the stuff we make that we want to protect. Our writing should be fine, as all the meat of it is on RPGuild and we probably won't use more than short excerpts of it or CSes in the wiki. Ideas, characters, and themes, however, probably won't be protected. So no one who wants to port such things into a commercial work (should they be so inclined) will have an easy time protecting their copywrite.
As a courtesy to my fellow players, I would be willing to find a different, private wiki if any of this is an issue. It won't be quite as easy to use as Wikia if Capy's search is anything to go by, but we should make this decision early.
Also, @LokiLeo789, I used an infobox and put in everything else myself. All the tools were there.
Edit: A note on courts; it probably wouldn't get that far in any case. It's just that if someone complains to Wikia with copywrite law quoted, Wikia may just take down our wiki without so much as a peep to us. It'll be inconvenient to say the least, but that's the easiest thing for Wikia to do.

@Double Capybara Not for lack of me trying, but I don't think Wikia is capable of making wikis private. If you're worried about it, we can tear down the wikia wiki and make a new one elsewhere before we all go crazy adding pages.
Edit: I'm going to sleep now. I've left a disclaimer for us on the main page of the wiki, but let me know if I should take down the wiki and try somewhere where we can get a private setting. I kinda just dived in to this :P
