  Welcome to Silent Shadows v 2.0!
After a change in ownership, we have had to move yet again. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Welcome to Silent Shadows, and I hope you have a great time here. Lurk or chat with the regulars, or check out the guild to roleplay your critters. There will be many opportunities to get wolves here - so keep your eyes peeled!

 These are the guidelines for the shop! Read them, and follow them. I don't want to see anyone banned from the shop.
1. Follow the ToS for Gaia! This should be a basic.
2. NO BEGGING Whatsoever! If all slots for the colorist you want are full, there are always bribe slots. If those are full, too, try pet trades. If that doesn't work, please just be patient. Begging is annoying and all it does is get people angry. neutral
3. Read EVERYTHING on the first two pages before asking questions, please.
4. Be respectful, have fun, and be at least somewhat literate. Some chatspeak (Lol, wtf omg!) is okay on occasion, but nothing extreme like "OHEMGEE wtf lmao lol lawl dat wuz sooo funi!" <-- NONE OF THAT!
5. No excessive whining if you can't afford something or don't get what you want. It's annoying, a little "Aww D:" Is okay, but no going on forever about it!
6. Don't post just to flame. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't. You decided to check this shop out; no one forced you.
...................................7. USE THE ORDER FORM! It's there for a reason. Orders that don't follow the order .................................. form will go ignored.
...................................8. Don't pester the colorists about your order. They take time, and we have lives
...................................outside of Gaia too. They get done when they get done.
...................................9. I'd like to keep serious Roleplay in the guild. Casual ( ** - - )) Rp is okay ...................................in-thread, but 3rd person is more-so encouraged in the guild. smile
...................................10. Send the trade RIGHT AFTER you post the order! Wolves will NOT be started, until
...................................payment has been sent. Trades are not accepted until wolves are certed. Do NOT
...................................cancel trade after you get your wolf. This is theft, and you WILL be blacklisted and
...................................reported.

 After a long while, humans eventually met their demise. With their incompetence, they destroyed themselves in the long run. Time was lost from thereafter. All electronics crashed. Due to older, mechanical guns being replaced by lasers and blasters, humans were left defenseless. Without the knowledge or instincts to survive in the wild, civilization crumbled. Humans became mere prey; easy game. Buildings were then retaken by nature, pollution was no longer a problem, and the Earth began to become purer. The gray wolves grew larger, as did all the animals, and into their extinct ancestors; Dire wolves. Even Gods and Goddesses, who choose to take the form of wolves, came down from their haven to the purified Earth. New strains of wolf, too, even began to emerge: Aquas, Serpenti, and Draconis. Endangerment is unheard of and animals able to survive flourished. Free from the hand of man, nature is as it should be and the Earth belongs to the animals once more, as it always should be. Even though wolves are now North America's primary predator, that doesn't mean that they can't have hardships in emotion. So Selene, Goddess of the Moon and Celestial Mother, sent down an Angel, who then founded the pack Moonlight. She watches over all her children, coming to them in dreams sometimes, and protecting their souls after death. Needless to say she is Hades' sworn enemy, but she doesn't mind if she's protecting the Mother's Wolves.
It's time to meet the shop mascot! Silent and Quick, black as the night and the perfect hunter of the dark, meet the head wolf in charge
Silent Shadow!
(Only the Moderators can RP him, and only if necessary like a fight breaks out in the thread between wolves that both owners are opposed to. The thread is HIS Territory, and he usually comes out at night, if at all)

Now check out the cert. It has changeable backgrounds and an infobox. See: CertNow here are the changeable background, choose any you want, Or you can provide a link to a picture you'd want instead! This can be done with both the infobox, and the cert background (Custom Background, +1k)
Plain Color This one can be changed to whatever color you want, by the way. Yay!
Now, you probably noticed the box where all your wolf's information is (Name, master, DOB and such.) We call this the Infobox. The Infobox has multiple backgrounds too.
SnarlHowlBlissStalkTogetherStareShadowHuh?PupPremium *These are an extra 100g Rose SnowSo those are the ones you can choose from. This is how the wolves will look in the cert! Pup AdultAnd finally in the cert area we have the Signature Cert. It's basically the same thing, only it's smaller and fits more easily into your signature. Example: Signature Cert
It comes in all the backgrounds that the normal cert does and it's only an extra 500g. Don't worry, you don't have to pay for those premium backgrounds more than once!
*Our cert creator is Setsunasakuya! A big thanks for making our cert! heart

 The Guild can be found here!Primarily, the Guild is used for RP. It is also a great place for staff to organize events and keep track of their orders. In the guild you can do a wide variety of things, including have your very own pack, introduce your wolves individually, write stories about your wolves, and of course, Roleplay with other owners! It's a real blast, and the only requirement for entry is that you currently own a wolf from the shop. =3
It is absolutely free~
Please feel free to check it out, but please read all of the rules in each forum and subforum!

 SILENT SHADOWS IS BY NO MEANS RP MANDATORY!!
RolePlay is just a fun thing to do. There are two types of roleplay that we generally use. Third person (or formal) and casual RP.
Formal is more-so encouraged in the guild, but not restricted to. Any kind of RP is still welcomed in the threads, however =]
Making a thread in the guild in the "RolePlay" subfourm just helps to keep track of your plots and stories better ^_^
Our theme is Greek Mythology, but feel free to mix that in with your own wolf's personal beliefs. All wolves and minds are different, after all.
More rules can be listed here
READ THEM before starting a RolePlay in the guild!!
Third Person Formal Sniffing the cool night air, Angel wagged her tail briskly with a large smile. "How peaceful..." compared to Casual Angel: -sniffs air and wags tail with a smile- How peaceful...
((Asterisks * can be used instead of dashes - if you would like. It all depends on preference)) .::RolePlay Guidelines::.
-No killing other wolves! There is nothing that is so important to fight over that someone must die - EVEN if your wolf is a God!
-No massive autohit. I.e. You can't always be able to hit the other wolf every single time.
-Be LITERATE. No chatspeak in RP.
-Your wolf can't be all-powerfull. There is always someone to match everyone's strength.
-Be fair! You can't dodge every single hit. In an actual fight, you take hits, I take hits. You dodge hits, I dodge hits.
-Be REALISTIC when fighting. No-one is invincible. That's what pissed me off about Wolf's Rain with Darcia, even though I know there was poison there, hello, blood-loss?
-Have fun!
-RP is RP. Just because two owners' wolves are fighting does not mean that it's anything personal with either owner. It's Roleplay!

I suggest that if you intend to join a pack, you check out the following. You could always make your own, too, but these are the ones already in existence.
Ramesies
Owner: Dark Wolfs Moon
• In a long and angry speech from Hades, you can always switch packs later.
Atlantis Aquatic Wolf Sanctuary
Owner: Dark Wolfs Moon
•The official pack of Aquas wolves! (AAWS for Short)
Moonlight
Owner: Stalkerchick
•Entry fee is to RP how they got into the pack! Anyone accepted.
Dark Forest Wolf Settlement
Owner: XxshelbydemonaxX
The Universe
Owener: Zolis
Lone Wolves
• This is where Wolves default if no pack is listed. This is not a pack, but a place for the Lone Wolves to roam about.
Making your own pack! New pack applications should go here. Be sure to read all the info on that page!
This is the form for a new pack:
[b][align=center]NEW PACK:[/align][/b]
[b]Pack Name:[/b] (Susceptible to change)
[b]Alpha(s):[/b] (Only need M or F to begin, not both)
[b]Beta:[/b] (Don't need on to begin)
[b]Short pack description:[/b] ( A sentence or two of description; landscape, creation, beliefs)
[b]Requirements to join:[/b] (Ex: AAWS, must be Aquas to join)
[b]CAN other wolves join your pack?:[/b]
[b]RP required intro?:[/b]

Love is in the air~
Alright, so this is how breeding works. Breeding costs 5k, for an initial amount of three pups, provided that there are no LA edits. For edited pups, breeding is bumped up to a price of 8k. Each owner of the wolves to breed will have to split the breeding price equally, unless worked out amongst yourselves differently. You may get an additional pup at 3k each, unedited, but another 5k each for edited. You may get up to 6 total pups. There are only three available dens to breed in - once all are full, they won't open up until all are open once more. Genders of pups are pre-set with a dice roll, and all pups are guaranteed to grow into adults. If you do not want them to grow into adults, breeding price is cut in half. However, if you'd like them to grow later, you must pay for it like another order for each pup you wish to grow, so be sure that you are positive in wanting pups to stay pups forever.
Den 1 - Jay&Older Ashy
Den 2 - Hexa& Diasuke
Den 3 - OPEN
Finally, here is the form for breeding these pretties![align=center][IMG]http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww82/silentshadowsstore/Banners/BreedForm.png[/IMG][/align]
[align=center][b]Colorist Chosen:[/b] (Often times, this will be the colorist that did the parents, unless otherwise noted)(Be sure the desired colorist has slots open!!)
[b]Link to Mommy:[/b]
[b]Link to Daddy:[/b]
[b]Edited?:[/b] (Keep in mind that edits will be based off of the parent's edits)
[b]Extra puppies?:[/b] (How many? You can have up to 3)
[b]Stay puppies?:[/b][/align]
