Magic Wolf RP
Magic Wolf RP
Long ago and far away, magic dominated a golden land; the magic of three groups of proud wolves, who lived together in peace and friendship. There were the Halite Wolves, rulers of the ice. There were the Fern Wolves, rulers of the forest. And there were the Shadow Wolves, who possessed the uncertain powers of the night. They were like three siblings, sharing what they had, sharing their lives.
But thunder was building up in the mountains. Flashes of warning lightning were already flickering over the packs. A storm was coming, possibly more than one, that could split the wolves apart, or possibly keep them together. The Shadow Wolves were darker than the other wolves and undisputedly different, and the packs cast them out. The gray wolves fled, and the other wolves were rid of them, waiting for daybreak.
But the shadows are known to keep away daybreak. There was still a vague threat in the thunder clouding the sky.
The Shadow Wolves would return.
The storm was not yet over.
~RP Guide~
-Animal Characteristics-
Wolves:
None of the wolves hunt animals for meat. All wolves, eagles, and foxes have the same language.
-Fern Wolves
The Fern Wolves have brown fur and live in the forest, which supplies them with everything they need. They eat ferns, mushrooms, vegetables, fruits, and nuts which they forage for, and which they trade to the Halite Wolves (see Trading). They also make potions from forest plants, which are generally used to help them gain health or strength. They live in dens, which they hide with ferns; this used to be because of the vulnerability of their cubs, but they continue doing it despite no longer needing to.
-Halite Wolves
The Halite Wolves have white fur and live in the tundra. They construct palaces and dwellings of ice using their magic (see Special Powers). They eat the same food as the Fern Wolves (see Trading).
-Shadow Wolves
The Shadow Wolves have gray fur, and live in the tundra and the forest, as part of Celandine and Moondrop's packs. Except for having different magic and different-colored fur, they aren't noticeably different from the other wolves.
Eagles:
-Fern Eagles
They have brown and white feathers, and live close to the Fern Wolves. They have the same magic as the Fern Wolves, and are friendly with them, helping them in small ways (e.g. transporting materials for them).
-Halite Eagles
They have white feathers, and live among the Halite Wolves, sharing their magic. They also help each other (e.g. the eagles transport materials and help to watch over wolf cubs).
-Shadow Eagles
They have dark and white feathers, and live in the mountains, sharing the Shadow Wolves' magic. Each Shadow Eagle is telepathically linked to a Shadow Wolf (see Telepathy), and are their constant allies.
Foxes:
Red foxes have red fur and live in the forest, while Arctic foxes have white fur and live in the tundra. They aren't enemies of the Fern and Halite Wolves, but don't think of themselves as their helpers or allies either. However, they may be able to give the wolves valuable help later in the RP.
-History-
Once, the Shadow Wolves lived as part of the two other packs. However, they plotted against the other wolves, and when their plan was discovered they were exiled to the mountains. For years they stayed there, but at long last the Fern and Halite Wolves forgot what had happened, and the Shadow Wolves gradually returned. At the present time, no one - except the Shadow Wolves - remember that the Shadow Wolves were ever separate from the other two packs. The Shadow Wolves, however, are still bitter about it.
-Some Important Worldbuilding Notes to Read-
-General Geography
From north to south, the world consists of the tundra where Halite Wolves, Halite Eagles, Arctic Foxes, and some Shadow Wolves live, the mountains where the Shadow Eagles live (and later in the RP, the Shadow Wolves) live, and the forest where Fern Wolves, Fern Eagles, Red Foxes, and some Shadow Wolves live.
-Wolf and Animal Organization
The two main packs are the Halite and Fern Wolves/Eagles/Foxes, who are led by Moondrop and Celandine and their eagles, respectively. The Shadow Wolves live scattered among these two packs and don’t have a leader. Eventually, they will (see Rules and Guidelines for more).
-Magic
-Power Sources
A Power Source is a special object that gives magical powers to any animal who uses it. The Fern Power Source is a rare flower, the Halite Power Source is a special halite crystal, and the Shadow Power Source is a piece of obsidian. There is one Power Source for each pack as well as useless decoys of it. These are all guarded carefully (See Rules, Guidelines, and Role-Playing Info).
-Powers
All animals can turn invisible for a short time and teleport. Wolves, and sometimes eagles and foxes as well, receive special plant, weather, or shadow powers from their pack’s Power Source. Plant magic includes growth, destruction, or plant-potion powers. An example of this is the ability to cause a tree to bear another kind of fruit besides its own. Weather magic includes manipulating water, weather, and snow. An example of this is the ability to cause a certain type of cloud to appear or disappear. Shadow magic includes manipulating rocks and stone, and camouflaging in shadows. An example of this is the ability to temporarily blind an animal by throwing a shadow over their eyes. No animal has all the plant, weather, or shadow magic possible. If they use their powers too much and run out, they will not be able to use magic until they receive more from their pack’s Power Source.
-Special Powers
-If any Halite Wolf sets aside their magic for two days, they are able to build buildings made of ice. Three Fern Wolves do not have plant magic. They are seers instead and can see the future.
-Telepathy
Each Wolf is able to communicate telepathically with the Eagle of their element who was born on the same day as them. However, only the Shadow Wolves and Shadow Eagles know they can do this. The others have not discovered this trick yet.
-Trading
-Food is scarce in the tundra, so the Halite Wolves trade salt (halite) to the Fern Wolves in exchange for food.
-Rules, Guidelines, and Role-Playing Info-
1. No OP charries, please. If your charrie has all, for example, shadow-related magic, we will ask you to choose one specialty.
2. Please don't control other CBer's charries too much!
3. For each Wolf charrie you make, you must make an Eagle charrie who is the same age and the same element.
4. There are only three Fern Wolves who are seers and can see the future. They don't have any other magic.
5. There isn't a Shadow Wolf leader yet. If you have an active Shadow Wolf charrie, we will likely ask you to lead.
6. We are two CBers writing under pen names. Feel free to guess us!
7. If you have any questions, we suggest reading through everything we wrote above. If you still have questions after that, please ask us.

I've posted about a hiatus already, but like I said, I'll be gone for a little more than three weeks, starting tomorrow. I probably shouldn't have made a character right before that. I'll start rping when I get back if that's okay.
(July 20, 2024 - 8:09 am)
I'm a bit late, sorry... but yes, that's fine. There's no deadline for joining the RP :)
(July 22, 2024 - 12:19 pm)
When do we start RPing?
(July 27, 2024 - 6:22 pm)
@Moon Wolf: right now :)
Celandine is coming back later with the outline of the beginning of the plot, but for the moment I'd propose some low-stakes RPing to work out how our charries interact and so on. Moondrop and Crystal are open to RPing with anyone. Note: anyone can join at any point. Spots are not closed.
<Moondrop>
It was the in-between time before sunrise and before the moon set. There was already a pinkish haze along the edge of the sky, but on the opposite side of the world a few stars still glittered. Moondrop rose; she'd paused to appreciate this in-between time after a busy night, but it was time to be getting back to the pack. Sometimes, like right now, she felt for an instant as if something just might be wrong. Like a quick shadow flitting over her, quickly receding. Which was strange, because everything was so beautiful that she could literally feel it, and she should have been completely happy. After all, there was nothing wrong in either pack. Celandine, as far as she could tell, was doing perfectly well in the forests. And the Halite Wolves were all right as well. She turned, trotting towards the long sweep of tundra surrounded by low hills where most of the pack tended to sleep and live. Maybe she could find Crystal.
A few wolves were in the valley ahead of her, their white and gray coats mingling softly in the twilight before dawn. The ice palace that had been in construction was finished, she noted with satisfaction as she passed. Her spirits lifted. Everything was well.
(July 29, 2024 - 9:07 pm)
)Lunarmist(
Lunarmist stood at the valley, gazing at the breathtaking view of twilight fading to dawn serenely. Her outside did not match the thoughts that were racing in her head inside. Countless worries about the day ahead, about the strange feeling she had that something big was about to happen or was happening.
Evening, her ever faithful friend, fluttered down onto an old tree stump, disturbing the fine layer of snow that laid on top. Lunar acknowledged their presence with a small nod, not wanting to disturb the scene of beauty.
She suddenly heard pawsteps coming from behind, nearly silent against the snow. Lunar turned, her gaze alert, but relaxed slightly when she realized it was Moondrop.
She dipped her head at the Halite wolf pack leader and asked quietly, respectfully, "How are you doing?"
(July 30, 2024 - 2:28 pm)
<Moondrop>
Lunarmist was also looking at the view, and seemed a bit startled when Moondrop came up behind her. "How are you doing?" she inquired of Moondrop, a bit tentatively.
"Well," Moondrop returned, her tone of voice indicating that there didn't need to be any formality right now. "It's a beautiful sunrise." She paused, taking another look at her home, a cool breeze ruffling lightly through her fur. Then she tipped her head so that it brushed Lunarmist's. "You? Is anything up?"
Oddly, Lunarmist was one of the ones she felt uneasy about sometimes. The young wolf was quiet, well-behaved, never any trouble, but Moondrop often wanted to draw her out and give her a more active role in the pack. She didn't want to just lead the Halite Wolves; she wanted to help them, as the former alpha Snowstorm had done. And she loved being able to do that.

~Outline of Plot Events Part 1~
-the Shadow Wolves are communicating with Shadow Eagles telepathically, and are beginning to organize themselves into a pack.
-A worrying discovery is made (keep an eye out for it; it's a planned discovery)
-some of the Fern Wolf Seers (there are no Seer charries currently; feel free to create one) are beginning to receive cryptic, equally worrying prophecies
-The Halite Wolves overhear the Shadow Eagles plotting
(August 1, 2024 - 3:39 pm)
@Moondrop&Celandine, is there a charrie limit?
)Lunarmist(
"Well," Moondrop replied, without formalities. "It's a beautiful sunrise." She paused, then tilted her head so that it brushed Lunarmist's. "You? Is anything up?"
"Nothing," Lunarmist said, ignoring the look on Evening's face that told her that they wanted to tell her something. Something big, probably. "It truly is a beautiful sunrise. It will be a good day for a hunt."
When Moondrop was glacing elsewhere, at the sunrise or at some other wolves, Lunarmist glanced over at Evening. What is it?, she asked telepathically.
I overheard from some other Shadow eagles that the Shadow wolves and eagles are planning something. Something to do with forming a pack, Evening replied.
What?? Lunarmist felt surprised, but luckily managed to not let it show on her face. Is there a reason?
I don't know as of yet, but I can try to find out soon, her friend returned.
Lunarmist glanced back at the sunrise, thoughts racing through her head once more, but different thoughts...more worrying thoughts.
(August 1, 2024 - 5:51 pm)
No charrie limit :)
(August 1, 2024 - 6:03 pm)
I'm making a Fern wolf seer charrie if thats ok:
Name of charrie: Lavender
Age: 14
Pronouns: she/her
Pack: Fern wolves
Personality: happy and talkative some days, uncertain and serious and shy the next (mainly when she receives prophecies)
Appearance: light brown fur with pale lavender green eyes, tends to have a lavender scent since she likes lingering around the edges of the forest where lavender grows
Magic (one speciality of their element such as causing rainclouds to gather, or if they are a Seer, fortune telling, in which case their element power cannot be very powerful): fortune telling and element power is can very slightly increase the growth of lavender
Fears/Insecurities: mostly about how her prophecies could be wrong or could ruin something or that she's not capable of doing something important
Assertive, Aggressive, Passive, or Passive-Aggressive: assertive normally, but can be passive sometimes
Background: Mostly been cared for by the pack, which is usual, enjoys and is very good friends with her eagle, even though they can't communicate.
Shipping: open to anyone
Other: n/a
-Eagle (REQUIRED for each wolf charrie) or Fox (optional)-
Name: Allium
Age (same age as your wolf charrie): 14
Pronouns: he/him
Kind (Fern, Halite, or Shadow): Fern
Telepathic link (if eagle): Lavender
Other: appearance is light brown and white feathers and pale yellow eyes, personality is friendly, encouraging, bright, energetic
(August 2, 2024 - 9:20 pm)
This looks fun :) I'm going to make a minor, possibly low-commitment fox charrie (as in one that might be very inactive) if that's okay?
Name: Alabaster
Age: 21
Pronouns: he/him
Kind: Halite
Telepathic link (if eagle): He is an arctic fox, not an eagle.
Other: A merchant who is constantly traveling between the tundra and the forest, and is familiar with both. He mostly sells products made by other animals, but sometimes he does some carving of his own. He's friendly, outgoing, cheerful, and positive, although he gets shyer around wolves who are older and taller than him.
(August 5, 2024 - 4:56 pm)
i think I’ll make a fox charrie to start with, just to get used to role playing before I try to become a more major player :}
Name: Virens
Age: 12
Pronouns: ae/aer, if that’s okay. If not, let me know :}
Kind: Arctic
Other: Virens is a very good climber and loves to scamper amongst the trees and on top of them like a squirrel. Ae has white fur with streaks of gray, and aquamarine blue eyes.
dont worry, I will try to integrate my wolf and eagle, I’m just not ready yet. Also, as they’re Fern, I think I’ll wait for Celandine to post some things first, if that’s okay.
(August 5, 2024 - 7:22 pm)
I think I'll also make a fox charrie, at least to start out with, if that's all right - I'm already taking part in a lot of other things on the CB, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to manage a proper wolf/eagle.
Name: Glorywind
Age (same age as your wolf charrie): 35, though seems younger
Pronouns: he/him
Kind (Fern, Halite, or Shadow): Fern
Telepathic link (if eagle): n/a
Other: He's a bit conceited, but knows exactly where he is in the world and who he's important to. He acts sassy and bold, but if asked, he would prefer peace to war. He's a character of contradictions, erratic but loyal, brash but predictable. He generally stays in the forest.
(August 6, 2024 - 2:18 pm)
Yes, it's perfectly fine to just have a fox charrie! Join at whatever level you want - with a fox, or with a wolf and an eagle. It's also fine to build on your host of charries over time.
@Moon Wolf, just a reminder - these wolves don't really hunt, since they don't eat meat. Perhaps this hunt could be a playful one, or possibly a foraging party... ?
<Moondrop>
"Nothing," Lunarmist replied calmly. "It truly is a beautiful sunrise. It will be a good day for a hunt."
And in a quicksilver instant, Moondrop could sense that the mood had changed. What exactly was it? An eagle, Evening, was perched nearby, and she was looking intently at Lunarmist. There was something in the air that Moondrop didn't quite like. It was unfamiliar, threatening somehow. And why did it feel like Lunarmist was hiding something, that she was suddenly not focusing on the conversation?
After a moment, Moondrop replied, "Yes, we should have a successful hunt. Evening, are you accompanying us? I hope so?"
(August 10, 2024 - 4:07 pm)
@Moondrop then I suppose Lunarmist means a forage hunt.
)Lunarmist(
"Yes, we should have a successful hunt. Evening, are you accompanying us? I hope so?" Moondrop asked, sounding slightly more tense than before.
Evening dipped their head, not needing to use telepathy to say yes.
"What will we be looking for this season?" Lunarmist asked, trying to ease the previous tension with more conversation.
