THE BLACKWIND PACK
A newly established pack based on customs and traditions of Midnight Crow and
Dusk's familial pack. The wolves of Kells will soon learn to be weary of the vicious
pack, many who decorate themselves with skulls and other queer items.

Currently Midnight Crow has decided to stop the small pack and settle on the
edges of the Redwood forest because he has found out that his sister is the gift of
life inside of her.


HISTORY
Perhaps one could tell you of the Blackwinds of old, the devils of Dusk and
Midnight's past. But perhaps that is a tale for a different time, because Midnight
Crow's tale is not a long one.

The hulking black male met back up with his sister Dusk not long ago. They had
not seen each other in over two years, both had gone their separate ways when
the pack they were born into seemed at it's end. They decided to travel together
again, two were stronger than one wolf alone.

They did as they pleased, went where they would and generally did not care of
other wolves and their so-called authority. Midnight would tear anyone's throat out
if they became too much hassle. He was a large wolf, even for Kell's standards,
standing well above the 6 foot mark. They got in fights and they made spectacular
kills and hunted even just for fun. They moved through the night like shadows.

But more and more Midnight seemed irked by some sense he could not name. He
also had become paranoid, every night a large crow would settle clue and it
seemed to fly when they travelled. Following, following and never cawing or
making any other noise. The sound of feathers gliding through wind had become
something that inspired rage inside of Midnight.

And then the cawing did begin. Two weeks of silence and then suddenly one
morning as the brother and sister pair tried to sleep there was just constant
cawing. Raw and deafening.

Midnight could take it no longer. Most wolves will tell you to leave the crows of Kells
alone; they are huge and nasty things. Prone to fits or rage and having the ability
to fly makes them quite a deadly opponent. Not Midnight, of course. Not many
would claim out loud that madness perhaps touched him lightly, but many whispered
anyhow. He'd come to the conclusion that he needed to best this beast, to slaughter
the bird and be done with it. So he went off into the night and fought long and hard to
take down the bird. He received a few wounds, but all healed well. As his prize he
kept the bird's skull; a constant reminder of his accomplishment and what wolves
were capable of.

It was with this that the roots of the pack were established, where a wolf would have
to prove that they were strong enough to live in this world, to be considered a full fledged adult.


TERRITORY
Blackwind is a nomadic pack; they move over the lands of Kells and go
where they please. They have been known to establish smaller territories in
areas when they've decided to settle for longer than a few weeks. This is
usually due to the appearance of pups within the pack.

HIERARCHY
[alpha]
the head of the pack. In the Blackwind pack it is usually headed
by a mated couple or a lone alpha until he or she decides to take
on a mate.

[beta]
usually two-four in a pack. Usually mated pairs. Have some sway
in decision making and gives counsel to the Alpha.

[subordinates]
any wolves which do not fit the other categories. General members
that are neutral in the pack. They are neither mistreated or turned
to for decisions in the pack.

[juveniles]
young wolves who are not yet considered adults. They are cared for
and watched over by the pack members. Wolves in the Blackwind
pack are considered to be juveniles until they complete their Fórna.

[omega]
very often seen as outcasts from the rest of the pack. They are
picked on and are treated poorly. They are used for tasks the rest
of the pack may not care for and generally used as entertainment
for higher-up members.
