Mountain Snow Pack

The Mountain Snow Pack is a very outgoing, gentle pack, having established themselves in the high elevations of the mountains. They were founded by Terra (Current leading wolf) and Arctic (current breeding male).

Territory

The Mountain Snow Pack makes their main camp in the higher caves of the mountains, and their territory extends quite far. They don't normally hunt in the higher elevations, preferring to descend the mountains and hunt through the pine forests, the lakes, and the rolling hills at the bottom of their mountains. They hunt whenever possible, and they eat mainly birds, rabbits, and any larger animals that their hunting parties catch.

Pack Hierarchy

The Pack's hierarchy is very rigid and structured. The leading wolf and breeding male are at the top of the pack, with hunters coming directly after them. Scouts come below the hunters, with the pup sitters and pups on the bottom. However, pups, pup sitters, and pregnant wolves always get the first share of prey brought back from the hunts.

(The names and characteristics of these wolves will most likely be transferred into other wolf games that I have, for instance WolfQuest AE and games like that).

If there are many pups, and not enough territory slots, the certain pups will be chased away and/or adult wolves will be chased away, but only if the wolves are part of the Pack that has many members. (For instance, if there are not enough slots and plenty of hunters, a certain amount of hunters will be forced to disperse and the newly grown adults will take their place.)

Assigning Roles Within the Pack

Wolves are assessed at a young age to test their stats, and depending on what they are they'll be assigned roles as such. Scout wolves simply need to be agile and fast, while for hunters it depends more on the stats. Pup sitters and herbalists will be assigned their role no matter what their stats are, and depending on availability.

The Leader and Lunar Dreams

In the Mountain Snow Pack, the leaders always have a very close connection to the Dreamlands. Once the lead wolf has proven they have a very strong connection to the Dreamlands (ie, having visited the Dreamlands every night for one rollover) a special necklace will appear around their neck, signifying their connection and properly naming them leader. Overtime, if the wolf in question visits the Dreamlands every night of every dream season onward, they may develop some Cnitharian wolf traits, such as jellyfish-like fins or tentacles that show themselves in the waking world.
