So, yeah. I was throwing the idea of a new pack. We have two good/neutral packs and I thought maybe we should throw in an Old-Traditional-Communistic-dictator pack! There will be a disclaimer if you want to join the pack or wander into the territories, though. I'm up for it and would love it, but I want you guys to voice your opinions/add to it!
They are a very strict pack that once you are in the pack, you will be forced to stay there for the rest of your life. If you try to escape, a severe punishment is given out and if you are found outside the territory without orders by the higher rankings then you will be hunted down and killed. Wolves live in fear of being punished and killed, so they tend to avoid being near high ranks. Few wolves speak ill of pack, they keep it to themselves in fear of being reported for such talk. They are a male oriented pack where females have little say or power. It is rare to see a high-ranking female unless she is mates to a high-ranker, although they still would have very little say in pack politics. Females must always respect and obey males, or else they will be punished with a beating. Unless a high rank female is doing so to a male of lower ranking, then it is acceptable.
They have slightly different ranks than normal pack wolves: Alphas, Betas, Enforcers (Small band of advisors, make sure everything is in order and following orders, personal body gaurds of alpha/beta, escorts for them and leaders in hunting down escapees. It is a high honor to be apart of these and then are almost always obsessed with the old-fashioned way of doing things, to continue on pack traditions), Shaman (They are both a healer and storyteller, they will be asked advice occasionally), Members (All are taught fighting moves, hunting and babysitting to ensure they are always busy and taking turns), Apprentices, Elders, Pups and Omega (Wolf is harshly picked on to release anger. Wolves tend to avoid them in fear that if they are too kind that they will be ranked down or punished, but will come up to beat the omega).
When a mother gives birth, she has a month or two to bond before she goes back to her duties and leaves them to the babysitters. Males are allowed to take a mate and sleep with/rape other females. Females cannot for she will be harshly punished if found out, she must be eternally loyal to their mate.
Wolves found on the territory are viciously attacked, escorted and held prisoner in the center of the pack, usually in the prisoner den. Prisoners mustn't leave that area or else they will be murdered, only a higher-rank can allow a prisoner to accompany them around to do work for the pack. Once they are trusted/after 2 months, they decide to keep him a prisoner or as a member of the pack. Although, a prisoner may fight a "Randomly selected" wolf to fight them. If the wolf wins, they may become an member of the pack immediatly.
Disclaimer/Note: If you want to join the pack, wander into their territory or have a member already in there, you must be fully aware that if your wolf joins that it can be killed if that is the consequence/punishment/held hostage whenever the alpha decrees, depending on the severity of the crime.
Sooooo, what do you guys think? Thoughts, comments, concerns etc? :D
I really like this idea but I feel like it may cause some pp/gm, and roleplayers may try to get around it if they don't want their wolf killed, and sneak out or something which may cause even more problems since it seems rather impossible,
Seems really interesting, I just don't think it'll work out with the whole, I don't want my wolf to die/I'm bored of this pack & want to move on/pp and gms.
But if we coujld find a way around it, it would be extremely interesting. I like the challenge it would give me as a writer :)
Hmmm, Well, maybe death would be the most extreme case and be rare if so...Although, keep harash punishments though. For escaping, I mean, they could always try and have that risk of getting caught, unless they get exiled as some sort of punishment. Like, they feel the pack would be better off without their weakness?
See, this is why I need help with this stuff. Hehe
Well, since it's a male-based pack. I don't think they would really care/listen if a female was raped unless she has a mate, since they don't really have a voice in the pack. Then, I'm sure the mate and rapist/male would get into a big argument and fight about it. Idunno.
Hmm this sounds like a pack I would want Banshee to be a leader in but then again Karma wouldn't be a good mix in a pack like that and he would want her to go with him. Idk We don't have many wolves that are like that malicious i think Marmalade and thats about it but no one would join if she forced them away like always. and she's already lost quite a gfew potentioal members.
I LOVE IT. Tyki Mikk would totally join that pack >:D
He's quite malicious and wouldn't hesitate to murder anyone. Since he's friends with Calique, he wouldn't mind at all that she doesn't have a voice, but he'd annihilate anyone who tries to harm her.
But he hates to do what he's told. Strict rules he can handle, just so long as he himself isn't restrained by them :\
I don't believe they would be too restrained, just they couldn't leave the pack/pack territory and would have to complete their duties. That would be about it. :P
I don't think she lost potential members, per say...
Yeah. Because you know, he's all laid-back and 'whatever' until its time to kill. Hmm... Heh, he'd be beaten a lot because of that, but at the same time he would warrant his own death sentence for revolting and fighting back.
Yeah, that might be something Enki would like, but then again, he hates males, so he would be extremely bossy, and prob kill himself from thretening the alpha if he ever gave him and restrictions, or tol him what to do, or anything. Lol.
And meiko could get caught up in it, good way to get rid of her when I tire from her xD
