Okay so I have had an idea for a pack floating around my mind for a while now, and want to know if anyone is interested. I will be updating this information as time goes on/If anything changes. Any updates will be coloured
Basically, the pack will be lead by Zitao, and if you know him, you know what kind of pack this is going to be. (It has come to my attention that many people think he is just evil, and thus aren't exactly jumping for joy to be in a pack under him. He is not just bad. I have only had him in like 3 threads, there is still more of his character to reveal) Dark, deadly, and dangerous, pack members can gain respect in multiple ways. It will vary from wolf to wolf, but the general idea if proving you can dominate another animal/wolf/etc. This can be done through any means, whether it be killing, claiming, making a pet etc. The more extreme the better (but of course, make sure you plot with people before you go off on a rampage)
This pack will also need lower ranking wolves, but fear not! They would not be abused, only punished if they disobey (which is not exclusive to just the lower wolves. All members of the pack are expected to follow orders), but orders do not come often. This pack might even be a safe haven in disguise for some, because weaker wolves will have the backing of the stronger wolves. Blatant abuse towards any wolf (other than one's own pets) will not be tolerated.
Pet culture: It is a common thing to have some level of power over another wolf. The amount depends on the wolves involved. While many people see pets as an undesirable position, in ways it can be better than the low ranking wolves. Yes, you are the mercy of whoever is your superior, but you also have their individual protection and some of their privileges (although limits and restrictions may be tampered with by the higher wolf). This is a good way for low rankers moves to move up through the pack, and find even more safety. Pets are usually outstanding in some way other than physical strength, such as beauty or intelligence, so it is an honor to be chosen as a pet by the highest ranking wolves in the pack.
The pack as a whole will be tight nit and very protective of it's members, so it is not wise at all to cross anyone. Both females and males have equal opportunity to be respected; Zitao does not discriminate against gender. Anyone can request to bring in another pack member and find a mate.
Those who are strong flourish here (and I don't mean just physically strong, although it does has it's advantages. If you excel in any way, you have the potential to move up in Zi's eyes). Any issues between members are expected to be sorted out by the wolves themselves, however Zitao will not mind if he must step in every once in a while. Because it will be such a powder-keg pack with a variety of personalities, there will not be many rules. However, these rules will be strictly enforced, as to prevent chaos from brewing within the ranks.
TL;DR: This pack is gonna be one big loving close tight nit family that isn't afraid to rip out the throats of anyone and everyone that crosses them. Wolves who aren't afraid to get bloody and evil are welcome, but so are wolves that also just need a sense of protection.
As for names, I am open to any and all ideas. I found some that I can give as examples of what I want the tone to be like. (powerful and dark) Let me know if you have any other name ideas, or if you like any of these (Or if you like them, but think changing a letter or two would make it sound better)
Onaga
Dracarys
Valrion
Asovius
I have found one that I really like 'Keihi' and will mostly likely be using that one. However, if you think you have a better idea, I am still totally open to hearing it
