RiverDrown Pack
List of Alphas and their mates:
First Alpha Hollow(m) and King Blue(m)
Pack role info:
Alphas:
-Can be of any gender
-Usually but not always rule with their mate, which is titled King or Queen
(The King/Queen/Coleader helps the Alpha with all their work, as well as having their own role)
-any offspring of the Alpha and King/Queen (adopted or biological) is referred to as a Prince(ess)
(Princes/Princesses is only a title/rank- not a role. no special privileges)
-Will lead for their entire life, up until the day they pass and pronounce their heir as new Alpha
-Tasked with producing and choosing (a) heir(s) by age 6y - maximum of age 6y6m
-Leader of the pack, overseer of all pack life
Hiers:
-Chosen and raised carefully from birth by their predecessor once they're around age 6y
-Up to three heirs are chosen by the Alpha, though at the time of retirement only one takes over.
-Educated in as many fields as possible
-Picked off overall shown ability and genetics
-Must be a descendant (biological or adopted) of either their predecessor OR the King/Queen
Shaman:
-"Herbologists"
-The wisest and most knowledgeable in herbs and healing.
-They're discouraged from having pups of their own if female, as there will be nobody to help them with their motherhood.
-They are required to have an apprentice at age 6y6m to ensure there is a well-trained future shaman
Shaman's Apprentice:
-Hand-picked at puphood by the current Shaman or Alpha to be trained by the Shaman
-Picked based off shown wisdom OR if they had conditions which would hinder their usefulness elsewhere
Wanderers:
-"scouts"
-In charge of managing territory boarders and maintaining territory
-Only two at any given time
-Should have fairly even stats and abilities, trained in all skills evenly
(Wanderers differ from caregivers in the sense that they were not born naturally weaker)
-Wanderers will look for apprentices around age 6y6m
Wanderer's Apprentice
-Only trained if a/the Wanderer(s) is getting older, as there can only be two Wanderers
(If a perfect wanderer if born or adopted into the pack, they will be trained and positioned as a Hunter- UNLESS both wanderers are young enough that it would be unreasonable to make them a Wanderer after their retirement)
-Trained and educated in all fields
Caregiver:
-"Pupsitters"
-Wolves who would not do well as scouts, hunters, or shamans (ie; runts) OR do especially well with pups
(ie: wolves born weaker than their littermates)
-Raise all pups after they are weaned
-Should have a very well-rounded education and even stats/abilities, trained in every field
-Very unlikely to retire to Elder or switch to Mentor
Hunters/Huntresses:
-The only role that does not have a footnote (any wolf without is either yet to be titled "Grazer" or a hunter)
-"Hunter" for males, "Huntress" for females (though it really does not matter)
-Wolves that are tasked with hunting for the pack
-They are usually trained for their specific role (Stalker, Chaser, Finisher) since puphood
-There are (currently) 3 hunting parties
Elders:
-Wolves are eligible to become Elders at age 5, but only will if they will become Mentors or have a better suited successor
-All wolves with the exception of Alphas will become Elders at age 7y6m
Mentors:
-Any wolf under age 7y6m who has retired from their previous role
-Tasked with the education of pups who are not adolescent
-Can be replaced into their previous role in the case of emergency
Trainees:
-All pups younger than adolescent
-Trained for whatever they show the highest affinity for OR what is needed most
(exception of weaker pups - caregiver/shamans)
-Wisdom and Smarts: Stalkers and Shamans
-Speed and Agility: Chasers
-Strength: Finishers
-Heirs, Wanderers and Caregivers will be trained evenly in all fields
Apprentices:
-All adolescent wolves will be apprentices
-Most will end up being Hunter's Apprentices
-Whether they will be a Stalker, Chaser or Finished depends on their Trainee education and shown abilities/stats
-Heirs, Wanderers and Caregivers will switch between their mentors if possible
-Weaker pups are most likely to be Caregiver or Shaman's apprentices
Grazers:
-Any member of the pack without a role for any reason
-They are still expected to be able to provide use of some kind, even without an official role
(i.e.: breeding or backup for unfilled roles)
(Not including Elders, who are removed from their position during their retirement)
