The Einherjar
A Norwegian/Norse/Larger-Build Wolf based wolf pack

The Interest/Questing page for the Einherjar


The Einherjar are a pack of wolves from a northern cold region. They stay to the mountain-sidings. They have full fur and tend to have a muscular tall build. Because of the dense and hard ground below their paws, these wolves can't make dens to burrow in during tough winter storms or avalanches. These wolves instead find inclines or caves to nestle in. Or sleep within the pack's clearing.

The smaller and lighter wolves tend to be taught how to jump into trees to keep their smaller bodies safer from avalanches and/or when they need sleep and cougars are out roaming during the night.
The region's trees are very healthy, large pine trees with some leaf'd trees here and there. The pine trees are very large, their branches barely fall and have little twigs, this makes climbing them easy for said smaller wolves who were not bred into Einherjar by the "Mountain Wolves" that reign in this pack.

Those whom belong to region and have been within the families of the large mountain-born wolves stand with power and strength. Low Stamina and speeds, but can hunt bigger, slower game. The wolves tend to have full fur-coats and sometimes extra fur tuffs. They tend to name themselves with names of Norwegian/German/Russian/Icelandic/Greenlandic names. However accept those who name themselves otherwise. They are very open-minded and trust many lynxes. They don't like to eat deer, as many take them as companions. Instead they eat moose, caribou and other game without hooves. It is also not to rare to see a Mountain Wolf with a pelt upon their back to show their hunting skills, also skulls or bones as jewlery.

Now for a little History. . .

The Einherjar reaches past many years, years that even Niflheim doesn't know. It all started with a war between brothers; a white brother and a black brother.
The black brother walked off and started a pack that is long-dead now. And the Einherjars had gone to war when their numbers were strong. Defeating the other pack, the white brother accepted his black brother into the Einherjar. And with it the rest of the pack that lived on.
With the black brother's pack came wolves the white one had never seen before. Those not of the mountains joined them. And then on had become a problem for the large wolves of the mountains. They taught them things only the mountain wolves knew, and one of them was to bound within trees.
From then on no brother clashed with their siblings, and no wars were fought between packs.
The Einherjar were a nuetral and very understanding pack. Strong though if threatened ever again. They taught their wolves to be warriors, even those who were small and of the outsider's blood.

It was dormant and a good-living pack until recently. Niflheim was born alongside a cousin of his. A young wolf named Nushta. Within the time then, there were no Alphas. Oddly the pack learned and were run by Betas, there were no heirs to the white or black brother willing to take Alphahood anymore. As only the brothers' descendants would and could take the lead of this pack.
Until Niflheim hit the yearling stage, beside Nushta. Niflheim's coat a blackened blue with small swirls growing into his fur. Nushta's a cream-white, the oddball of his black mountain region wolven family. Niflheim was strong, and very strong-minded. But Nushta was slightly twisted, annoyed at things easily.

Niflheim decided it best to request from the only descendant of the black, as the white wolf had taken her pups and fled, left in Einherjar to take Alpha. When he asked this, the two were transfixxed. It would mean defeating their line of Alphas, but also getting the pack off their shoulders. So they agreed. When it was finalized and Niflheim stepped up. Nushta took to a vigorous stance and lunged at his cousin, and bestfriend. Niflheim took a stand and killed his cousin before them. Some of the pack were awkward about the new Alpha, but when Nushta was killed off. Many saw this as symbolic. Niflheim took it to heart. He had made his cousin go crazy, or so he thought.
But it didn't stop him from taking the lead role. Many left, some stayed.

Now it is time to find who stayed, and who wishes to join under the young three year old Alpha Niflheim.

After a lifetime outside, the White Wolf enabled her two pups to return as full grown females. The White Wolf Chunxiu, a puphood friend of Niflheim agreed to take Beta beside Rhys, a young blue wolf. As her sister Kamea takes another role in the Gamma field.

A little vocabulary and some information!
Tree-Climbers - Those who are to small or come from distant lands and aren't within the same build as the mountain-wolves. These wolves will undergo training to show them how to defend themselves against the harsh weather and other predators who wouldn't think twice about killing a wolf.
Mountain Wolf - (mountain-wolves, wolf of the mountain) these wolves are described for you already. Wolves born to be large, muscular and well rounded. They are heavy and have extra padding on their paws that help them walk on mountains sides. (You can make your wolf a mountain wolf, as there are more existing packs and many lone wolves within this region)
Hjort - This is the rank deer are in Einherjar. Some deer are trained to go berry-picking, some deer are trained to help lift rabbits or fish in their antlers to bring back with them. Some deer are trained to bring bails of grass to the deer for the tough winter season. It's up to you to decide what they can do for the pack.
For - Foxes within the Einherjar. Foxes love to help their larger canine brothers hunt. Especially rabbits. They are like the ninjas of the Einherjar. But there are little in numbers at this moment. As Einherjar tend to take Deer in as their familiars.
The White Brother - The brother who started Einherjar. His name was Zsang-Shi. He was tall, big boned and held a scar over his blinded right eye.
The Black Brother - The brother who started another pack, but then put behind that when Shi accepted him into the Einherjar. He was tall, big boned and the mirror image of Shi. Holding a scar over his left blinded eye. His name was Sigurd.
Gammas - Now, Gammas make up the majority of the pack. Until there's more ranks added (unless there won't be!), I will let you decide what 'job' your Gamma will do. Ie. Hunter, Caretaker(takes care of wounded/pups), Elder(those older then 6), Story Teller(those older then 3), Guardians, Scouts, or Descendants(One of the last two descendants recently had pups ;D They should be a yearling by now. If not you can say one of the pups are younger or had pups!). If you have an idea for a rank, give me a heads up.
Valkyries - In Norse Mythology they were female hosts who would search out battle lands for the souls of the slain warriors. Then bring then back to Valhalla to become Einherjar in preparing for Ragnarok. -- Here in the pack these are female warriors who wear feathers upon their coat. They are usually born into it and show their strength in hunting the largest of birds. Each feather represents something that happened during their battle. When born into it their mother will pass down their first feather to their daughter (this first feather tends to come from ancestors before). Valkyries only wear even numbers of feathers in the end of their bird hunting. They also barely ever kill the birds they pluck them from. Most Valkyries stop at 8 feathers. To gain 10 is a miracle. Also, they only get the same feathers of the same bird species. The only feather that can be different is the one the wolves who are born into it are the ones they gain from their mothers.

HNNGG XD! I love him! I'll so accept! Nifl will like the little meanie head ;D;. Lol. Cause he'll think of himself from when he was an adol.
There were a lot of puppies in Einherjar, so I wouldn't be surprised if he was born into it =>.
If you wanna rp between the Alpha and him to see how he got in to Einherjar we can or talk about it!

I doub't I have to post this but I figured why not =)

I Don't Want to be Lonely!
Username: S u r f for L o v e
Name: Kamea Shi
Uncert/Cert: CertUncert
Age:Adult
Rank: Gamma O.o
Wolf Breed: Mountain Wolf
Build: S'far as I know she's a solid mountain wolf... xd
Personality:Gentle, Calm, Patient, Kind. Kamea isn’t a boneified hunter, nor is she a weakling. This Femme knows how to hunt and fight for what she loves and cares for, and to survive. But she doesn’t enjoy the hunt, she’s too kind by nature, Much preferring to befriend the prey then eat it. Thank goodness for her Sister Chunxiu. If it weren’t for the older female Kamea wouldn’t be alive. Her sister’s her best friend, closest confidant, and up until they rejoined the Einherjar, her only companion. Now she has an entire pack to lean on. Family she never got the chance to really know, and life seems to be in a much better place.
History: A gentle wolf by nature, she was always less dominant then her slightly older sister Chunxiu. When they had been taken by their mother away from the pack she was too young to recall much. But she would never forget the years spent struggling to survive off of small game that her sister and mother could bring back. Eventually she had joined her mom and sibling on these hunts, but it was never her favorite thing. She didn't like hunting, eating prey was natural, but hunting. Killing, it bothered her. When their mother died Kamea relied heavily on Chunxiu, the hole in her heart wide and gaping. For a time she didn't mind hunting, it felt good to lose herself to the predator inside her. When that accident happened, She ended up with a very painful Cut on her flank. It refused to heal, and she got sick. Somewhere along the sickness, and fear of dying her older sister, her ChuChu carried her back to the Einherjar, the pack they had been taken from as pups. She hardly remembered much, but when she finally healed and came out of the fever, she found out that ChuChu had become Beta of the pack. And that they were staying, Finally she wouldn't have to hunt anymore. Being a decendent of the White wolf or not, the thought made her over joyed. They had pack, home, safty. At Last.

Username: Airliyah
Name: Galen
Uncert/Cert: Uncert || Cert
Age: 4 1/2 years
Rank: Gamma - Scout
Wolf Breed: Mountain Wolf
Build: Galen is a very large burly wolf
Personality: Galen is a bit of a grouch, although he is a very wise one, once you get him to open up. He enjoys being by himself to ponder over his thoughts. He loves his job as scout, but knows that shortly he will be too old to continue his job. Galen feels like he does his pack a great honor when protecting the area form intruders that could do them harm. He's a very proud grouchy oldish man!
History: Galen has been born and raised in Einherjar. He has always been loyal and prepared to fight for his pack. His father had taught him to be strong and a great warrior. He will forever stand behind Niflheim, he was there the day he was born and had watched him grow into a strong alpha. He had no doubt that he had everything it took to run the pack. When Nifl had murdered his cousin it only further stated Galen's belief that the young wolf had what it took to lead the pack to greatness.

;D Hey Niflheim~
Username:RockerWolfie1616
Name: Mingan
Uncert/Cert: Cert, Uncert
Age: 3 years
Wolf Breed: She has mountain wolf blood in her but, is not a full blooded one.
Build: She is of Medium build
Role Play Count: I think...3? I need to count again
Personality:She talks to herself most of the time making others think she is..a little crazy. Vicious if provoked she will fight but, won't harm others unless they continue to press her. She is very naive when it comes to males or her own species and, keeps her distance. Not that she fears them..she just doesn't know what to think of them. A loner, very quiet even when talking to Masichuvio she is not loud in nature or in presence. Every move is an almost ghostly move..graceful and silent like she doesn't exist. The only downfall is when she gets to muttering or growling about something annoying..then..well everything can hear her. Though she seems sort of odd and rough on the outside if one could get close they would find a more cuddly warm wolf who wishes only for a family of her own..who wishes only to find someone to love.
History: (Her history is constantly updated)
She has no memory of her parents..her siblings. All she can remember is being hungry..so hungry. A large buck appeared in the clearing seeming to stare at her. The young pup did her best to pounce as she had seen her mother do..yet she had grown weary and, didn't know what to do after pouncing.The buck moved away a bit watching her warily before..he spoke to her. From that moment on she protected the large buck and, he in turn protected her. He made sure she knew how to hunt for herself and, often keeps watch when she eats. Masichuvio is the only creature that can get close..that knows her inner desires but, he would never speak them aloud. Now he is growing older and, Mingan worries a strong male wolf will try to take him down. The past few weeks she has become increasingly worried/ paranoid and, often goes out to hunt alone for fear of endangering her only friend's life. On one certain outing Mingan met many others of her kind including males, at first she felt very uneasy but, after words she ended up taking on a little charge. The pup is young but, she has vowed to teach and, care for him as best she can..something about him pens up her heart in a way she has never felt. Mingan has also taken note of a very handsome male..an alpha from the mountains but, she is trying to brush off her feeling by moving away from the group. While traveling the already confused female found a lost little rabbit injured and, begging for her not to kill him. Mingan already had Mascuvio but, eventually gave in and, helped the little rabbit named Miska.
It happened again..Mingan met the handsome intriguing Alpha male on her way up into the mountains but, a snow storm made it impossible to go on. In heat and, stubborn Mingan eventually gave in and, moved with her companions to a cave for the night. A night with Nilf.
After a night with Nilf...Mingan hurried away scared of the feelings she felt for the male and, of the night spent together. Once back in the forest however a large black male wolf started stalking her refusing to leave her alone. Thinking she might have become pregnant the protective wolfess faced the male named Coal and, with help from her deer companion he left them. She now carries the Alpha's pups but, is in denial at first and, tries to keep her distance..from both her feelings, and the male who has caused such a stirring in her heart.
Plot Idea:We already have some since they are having pups > - > I'm open to more <3 And, just wanted to make this formal

I Don't Want to be Lonely!
Username: I am THE Kitsune
Name: Glimmend
Uncert/Cert: Uncert Cert
Age: 2 (?)
Rank: Gamma - Guardian
Wolf Breed: Mountain Wolf
Build: Biiiig
Personality: Glimmend is what many humans would call a "teddy bear". He looks big and menacing but really he's a big softie. At least for his packmates - especially the pups and elderly. He's not the brightest star in the sky and he's loyal to a fault but he loves deeply and would do absolutely anything to defend his pack. He's not the greatest with strategy preferring to rely on his brute strength (which is why he doesn't go out and hunt) and due to his size he never really mastered sneaking around. He is best utilized as a body guard - a job that he embraces and couldn't be more proud to have. He's not an idiot but he can be gullible, especially if whoever is trying to deceive him has already earned his trust. Despite all of this he is exceedingly gentle with those that he protects, very aware of his strength and bulk he knows how to check it when play fighting with pups.
