The well-awaited puppies have been released and are slowely exploring their new world! The prior chaos which had appeared to reign while Blade was in the den with her newborns has left many a wolf shaken, and one paralyzed. What will the paralyzed one do? That is a mystery for us all. (I'll add more as more comes into perspective for me. Sorry guys)

I need ideas for the RP plots, Contests, polls, and just about everything else you could think of. Help me out, y'all.
As Halloween comes around, look for surprises. I may have hidden something, or it may be obvious and for the taking. Wolves are, of course, one of the first "spooky" things thought of during this time of year.
~~~All of the following will be moved/reworded and put onto the site at /rules.html. It's not even close to done, so no worries.
Members: You don't have to be active. Please understand that the only people that have pressure on their shoulders to stay active are the admin. Also, understand, that you should not be too terribly active. This is a daily message board. We post **ONE** message (maybe two, depends) PER DAY. This means, it may take us four months just to survive one day of events, but, hey, it's fun and you aren't rushed to do things. I like it that way. If you find that someone else is on at the same exact time you are, neomail them, go to the Pack Chat (Password "kyoki") and RP! Then, tell me who you RP'd with, and you've just earned yourself more points towards abilities. Remember **ONE Post Per DAY**
Last thing for now: Keep in mind that the guild council is entitled to 1) work together to solve problems 2) be responsible 3) curteous to new and old members 4) Understand the rules and be able to help anyone that contacts them 5) Contact wolfpup14 for any and all approvals and/or questions. I made the guild, and I want to make sure that you all are as comfortable as possible. This is fun, not work ^_^ The rest of you members need to recall that the guild council is in full control when I leave. If I'm away, they are who to turn to. Consult them with questions about how to's or don't's or even just random things that relate to roleplaying or the pack. Both gammas got to their positions the hard way as well. They know what they're doing, and they are just as capable of handling the guild as the rest. Please don't give anyone a hard time. If you need someone to yell at, neomail or email me. I can handle it. ^_~
Please keep in mind that they have the final decision. Lil_prancer is indeed Alpha Male, but due to Snowolf's (Snow in the RPG) experience, she has final say in any serious matters. And above all else, have fun y'all.
(OLD, but IMPORTANT)... (I wasn't exactly happy went I added this note)Alright, guys. I don't mind if people leave the guild. That's just business. People come and people go, but posting (what? five?) messages about how **Horrible** the guild is and how much better others are (and this is what really urks me) and saying what cool stuff that other guilds have that we don't, but in truth we really do have, that's just completely unneccessary. I made myself perfectly clear in that to understand these things (which really isn't that difficult) the new player needs to read the main webpage... you don't even have to read all of it! Just some, skim it even. This guild features wolves who have the ability to learn magic, elementals, and other incredible abilities. But, your character can also be just a normal wolf if you want. This guild is all about choices. If you don't want that... there's nothing here for you.
THIS IS A DAILY MESSAGE BOARD!! The members come on ****Nearly Every Day, Not Every Minute****. Why? Because this is a relaxed rpg. It isn't a message board where you sit there and wait for people to post things automatically. Also, these members are from around the world. Would you like to be up at 2 in the morning wherever you are just to talk to someone else across the globe every night? Maybe you do, but I don't. I love the guild, I love working with it, but I hate to see people who trash the guild on things that I have SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED before!
Level/magic information on the main page.
Many thanks to all those who donate items! I will soon be picking the wolf of the month and one of those really nifty items will be given away. Keep those items coming and those points growing! Congrats to all those who have gained council positions. Believe me, I do not give council positions easily. There are certain things that players have to do to get there, and, please note, you can lose those spots easily.
(1) By not being active for an extended period of time without reason
(2) By abusing any admin powers that I give to you
(3) If you lag behind in training or getting points, and someone below you beats you in a fight multiple times.
As you may have noticed, the points have changed. Yes, the once fairly easy-to-get points have now upped their difficulty to 20000 points at the most. I didn't do this to cause everyone agony and defeat. It was only to keep people trying hard throughout a longer period of time and not score all of the points by only one method. The easiest method of getting the points will always be giving items to the guild, but remember, that is not the only way to get points.
The players are what makes the rpg great!! You need to be the ones who come up with unique and challenging events that happen to the pack. That is what rpg is all about, to have challenges and see how other people, and your own character face and overcome those challenges. If you can make your character be absolutly unique and while we are just talking or doing nothing, a challenge (such as the flood that I created) pops out of your pose and everything makes the rp more interesting, you will earn points. That is the other reason why I increased the amount of points per ability. There are so many ways to recieve points, that it was senseless to have the abilities so close together.
10-1000 point abilities are still the same, but everything higher than those have been made much harder to get.
There are not many rules, I promise! And they aren't just for my benefit, they are for everyone's! A following is the rules that I hope everyone will abide by. Also please try to read the RPG webpage that I have set up as well.

Note: You MUST read this before you go to a Pack Meet.
Yes, I know. I almost never make it to a pack meet. It's because I never remember :P. I'm trying, though. If you go, tell me and you get points for it, but you will only get points if someone else can verify that you were there.
The pack meets are the first Friday of every month at 9:00 p.m. Eastern time, AND the first Saturday of every month at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. You do not have to be at both of them, but remember the best role players will recieve 30-100 points and the winners of any battles that may go on will recieve 70-100 points, depending on how good it was. If the win was too easy, there is no fun in just giving away a bunch of points, oh no. You have to earn the points. Also remember, only five people can be on each chat at one time. I will have my email open at that time, so if you can't get in you can email me for the url to get to the other chat if you don't already have it. Don't neomail me when it's a pack meet, because I won't be able to read it. Have fun, and be fair. I will be playing the characters of Blade, The Judge, A deer, A rabbit, and possibly other strange things, so keep a look out. It you see an @ symbol in front of my name, that means that I have the power to ban you or any other problem causers from the rp.
The Rules and Things You Should Know For The Chat
The is NO cursing, no bad sportsmanship and no killing each other, besides prey characters.
To pose your character use :::your pose::: This will look like this:
:::Blade ran around the forest and returned with a rabbit:::
To speak, just use the "'s.
To inform me that you will go into battle, type: (Your name) appears ready for battle.
When fighting, you can only use the abilities up to your point score, but you can use them in any order. Sometimes strategy (the order in which you use the attacks) can win the fight for you.
