"If there was ever a moment where I considered myself to be a true hero, it was when I was so sure that I was going to die. I was ready and willing to take my fate, even if it meant dying at the hands of our enemy. And since I still stand here and breathe, I will fight for you every step of the way my friends, because now I know what it's like to look fate straight in the eyes... and defy life." -Dannie

You have been born into the Tribe of the Fallen, a group of wolves in a woodland world surrounded by enemy filled mountains. Your rank in the Tribe is your duty for life, whether it be hunting and caring for our young, or fighting the battles that will hopefully be won. I stand here before you hoping you choose wisely as to what you will be doing for your Tribe.

Ranks:

--Alpha... The Alpha is the leader of the pack, they try their best to keep up with the pack. They see each of the pack members as family and make important decisions that reflect the growth and welfare of the pack. The Alpha creates the rules for the pack and makes sure they are properly enforced. During pack meetings, most issues will be discussed with the pack as a whole. The final decision will be made by the Alpha after all opinions are heard by the pack members. The Alphas have the final say so in everything, yet act only for the good of the pack.

--Beta... The Beta wolf is the second ranking individual within the dominance hierarchy. They show commitment and loyalty to the pack, also acting as a discipliner to reinforce the Alpha's decisions. The Betas stand in as Alpha when the Alphas are not present. They answer to no one but their Alphas, but are expected, as with all members, to show respect to every wolf. They also assist the Alphas with any conflicts within the pack and enforce the rules, keeping peace within the clearing. Betas may also call hunts, deciding when and where to hunt, along with the Hunters. In pack meetings, the Betas' answers and suggestions are the second most important, being trusted advisers to the Alpha, only thinking for the good of the pack as a whole. There may only be a male and female Beta.

--Delta... The Delta wolf is a wolf in training for Beta position. They are third in rank to Alpha and Beta. Deltas usually become the next Beta after training is complete but one can remain Delta without moving to Beta position. When this is the case, if ever the current Beta is removed from their rank, steps down, changes rank, or leaves the pack, the Delta may take the place as the new Beta at the Alpha's request. There may only be a male and female Delta.

--Sentries... Sentries are to ensure that the pack is safe by patrolling the territory and watching the movements of the surroundings. They are to make sure that no intruders enter the clearing. In doing so, it is a Sentry's responsibility to greet new visitors and learn why they are here and where they come from. Being in that position, it is the Sentry's job to make sure each new visitor that comes into the clearing has good intentions as well. When the Sentry is not present within the clearing or if there is none, the greeting responsibilities go to all Adult Pack members. Sentries also make sure that the Pack Members keep themselves out of trouble, and that no fights break out between visiting wolves (or other pack members), warning them of the rules.

--Hunters... The Hunters are those wolves who are exceptionally skilled at tracking and hunting down prey. The Hunters make sure that the Pack has a full abundance of food. There is only one lead Hunter who is to start hunting groups and choose who the captains of each group are, and will lead a group themselves sometimes.

--Caretakers... A wolf that shows interest and skill in caring for weakened pack mates. They also watch over the older or ill wolves of the Pack. The Caretaker of the Pack ensures when any wolf is wounded, they recover properly not putting to much stress on their wounds. They serve as a support unit, and try to keep the pack in a healthy state. If they feel a wolf is not strong or rested enough to hunt, they are to inform the Alpha, Beta, or Hunter. Caretaking does not mean healing; its means helping to survive, to watch over and make sure one does not further hurt themselves. A Caretaker has to be stern to the wounded. Many wolves will insist they are fine. A good Caretaker needs to know what injuries are serious and what injuries can heal on their own. They need to make sure a wounded wolf, does not over exert themselves. They need to be firm in having the wolf rest. Some are positioned to take care of the young when their mothers are out on duty.

--Scouts... Scouts are responsible for patrolling the territory for any signs of the enemy, especially when a Sentry reports any strange signs.

--Fighters... Those who fight for the pack, either attacking or defending. The lead Fighter can plan an attack, and either split the others into groups or stay as a whole

--Omegas & Pups... The Omega of the pack is lowest ranking wolf. The Omega is usually a young wolf that is very new to pack life and still learning, a wolf that has been lowered in rank due to wrong actions. They explain to the pups what is right and wrong, or safe and dangerous. Pups while low in rank have many social freedoms; their antics are tolerated by most of the members. Reaching 1 year old, pups of the Pack may become Full Adult Members. Must be 1 year to Court/Mate and 2 years to Breed (have a litter).
