LIFE IN A PACK - please read!

[Thessaly]

Because our plot is a little different from most wolf roleplays, and even instills a bit of fantasy into the roleplay, there are some things you might need to know before roleplaying your wolf here, especially if they are part of a pack.

King Javon (JUH - vahn) - Everybody is supposed to respect the King, though not everyone adheres to his laws. He isn't a cruel ruler, but since his leadership, he has put many taxes on the wolves that his father would disapprove of. It is said that he believes in deep magic, and because of his quest for power, he seeks the deep magic to keep him immortal. He is 7 years old, and hasn't had any children yet, thus creating no heirs. Some speculate he is infertile, while others believe that there is such thing as deep magic and he has found a way to live forever.

The Kingdom - The Kingdom is a land beyond Mount Draknyr. There is a thin pass that connects the two lands, giving the wolves of Kroat a way to go to the Kingdom if they ever need to. The Kingdom actually is a castle that long ago, a power hungry wolf claimed as his own and gave himself the title of King over Kroat. The only wolves that live here permanently are close friends of Javon's, Javon's guards and Javon's hunters and servants. The only time pack members visit here is to pay respects to Javon or to pay their taxes.

Kroat (krowh - aht) - Kroat is the entire region and it contains both the land of the Kingdom and the land of the middle-class pack members who serve under Javon. There are rumors that Javon is planning on changing Kroat to Javonia.

The Resda - The Resda is a food tax that King Javon instilled within his first year of leadership. He still has his royal hunters, but the food tax is to keep his loyal army of guards and servants fed without them having to take part in hunting. Each pack (The Draknyrians, The Raglans and the Amicans) are required to hand over a portion of their food every season to feed his Kingdom. Though many follow Javon ceaselessly, there are those that disapprove of the taxing and hoard their cache's, telling the Kingdom that they have nothing to spare.

Wiccans/Witches - Those who believe that the King's adviser is being kept prisoner usually believe that she harnesses magical powers because she can speak to them through dreams. It has never been proven that magic does exist, it's more of a fairy tale for wolves to either believe or let be. You can choose to have your wolf believe in it, or simply ignore it.
