Below you will find all the questions and information that you need to know about this herd. If you have a question that remains unanswered then please do not hesitate to PM the mule, Dixie or Syaoran-Puu for an answer.
Why are we called the Miakoda herd? Miakoda means 'power of the moon', there are two reason why this is important, the first is because the moon was shining when Maion first found his way to Sengdroma's lake were they danced, and secondly he gifted Sengdroma the nickname Moon since she refuses to talk to most people and he needed something 'nice' to call her.
What is special to the herd? The herd considers family to be its most important assert. They also keep a special place in their hearts for the moonlight, remembering the beauty and the importance of the nights spent beside the lake in the moonlight when Moon and Maion first met. History is something that each member must learn, it is a part of their present and future.
What do you need to do to join this herd? To join you will have to express an interest in joining via PM to the mule, Dixie or Syaoran-Puu. From there an RP will be set up between the soquili in question and either the alpha Sengdroma (Moon) or the protector Maion to determine how suited the soquili is to join the herd.
Can any breed join? Yes any breed can join, as you can see already the alpha is a regular and the protector an Angeni so they are open to welcoming any breed. That said evil soquili are not welcomed into the herd, so it would probably not be suitable for some kalona and the lone skinwalkers of the world.
What is the initiation ceremony? The initiation ceremony is something that will occur via RP, the soquili in question will be presented with a task suitable to the season of their initiation. This could include a retrieval or a task of an alternative nature.
Can you fail the initiation ceremony? In truth YES, so please be aware of that. However there are several opportunities for you to pass and only one way in which you can fail so the stakes are piled in your favor. Details shall not be revealed here as that would spoil the task.
What is an Honorable member? Honorable members are those who are close friends or family of full members. If you have proven your worth and loyality to the Miakoda herd then you may request full membership. If you are an honorary member then you are free to enter the lands in which the Miakoda herd holds dear.
How do you become an heir or a protector in training? Heirs need to be mares as they are next in line for the alpha position. Protectors are usually stallions but Maion is willing to accept applications from serious mares. The challenge for these positions will remain a closely guarded secret, however we will let you know that there needs to be several members wanting to become an heir or protector for the challenge to begin. Direct family members of Sengdroma and Maion will not automatically become heirs and protectors, though special measures may be put into place if one so exceptional potential (this can apply to all members).
Do heirs or a protector in training need anything special? To be considered they need to have heart, determination, courage and humility. Once they have proven themselves and completed the task they will be welcomed into the herd under their new position. They will have the duty to learn everything they can under the alpha and protector of the herd in the hope that eventually they would surpass them. After they have been accepted by the herd they will eventually be required to venture on a quest. This quest is to find their own animal guide to help them on their adventure.
How will heirs and protectors in training get these familars? Those who gain this position will have to RP out the scenario in which they met their familiar, it could be a simple encounter or something far more complicated but that would be up to you as the RPer. However when it comes to actually purchasing these familiars this will be discussed at a later date.
Who may I mate my soquili with? The herd does not place limits on how, who or when a member can breed or mate, although it is preferred that a strong family connection is kept at all times. If a member finds him or herself in trouble then another member of the herd will always be ready to show their support. That all said if you wish to get 'approval' of the herd then you can ask the Alpha or Protector through an introduction RP.
What happens if you are banished? If you are banished then you will become classed as an enermy to the herd. Only the Alpha can banish a soquili from the herd, however Maion may make a recommendation if he has due cause. To actually be banished you would need to have commited a crime against the herd (this includes challenging the alpha or protector and losing the challenge).
Can the Alpha or Protector be challenged? Strickly speaking you can however we are not going to allow this to happen unless it has been discussed with Dixie and Syaoran-Puu and is written into the herd plots. Please do not feel disheartened by this. This 'restriction' is in place to encourage the family community of the herd.
Can we plot in the thread? Since this is the Miakoda herd thread we welcome all herd members to RP, plot and talk in the thread, however we would like any OOC chat to be kept in brackets (()) [[]] {{}} so that it can be seperated from any RP going on. Please be polite to each other, there is no need to be cruel or mean to another member in OOC, however we understand that not every soquili will get on with everyone.
.....more soon!
