Burial Mounds
Burial Grounds:A pack of 5 religious sects built on the mass graves of their ancestors
Leader: Each leader of the Burial Grounds holds the title of Necromancer. The Necromancer is head of all sects, and leads initiation rituals.
The current Necromancer was born of two otherworldly beings and prophesied by her father to be the future leader of the Burial Mounds. Her name is Amaris, which means "promised by God".
Initiation: In order to officially become part of a sect, each wolf must go through a ritual which varies depending on the sect. Pups are formally unnamed until they are old enough to complete initiation (1 Y), in which they will be given a name by the head of their chosen sect. Nicknames are given to pups, of course, usually in reference to their physical appearance.
The Gods:The Buried, The Depths, The Endless, The Incantation, and The Viscera. The Gods' power is immense and their blessings unparalleled - it's believed that each deity provides their followers with supernatural gifts in life, and ushers them into the afterlife after death.
Ascension is the process of worshiping your chosen God and using their gifts to gain a powerful enough spirit for the afterlife. The wolves believe that without doing this, death is a permanent end, and a weak soul will scatter into nothingness.
Each sect focuses on worshiping their chosen God and is headed by a Sect Priestess or Priest.
