THE MIXING OF HERBS FILLS YOUR NOSTRILS...

You sniff around, inhaling the sweet aroma of crushed flowers and berries.

Your pack is in a rough state... You look around, glazing your stare across the wolves you've recruited thus far... Some may be hurt, some may be sick, or maybe some look like they may not make it to the next morning. Your rounded eyebrows furrow, wondering what to do... Without a herbalist, your packmates' live(s) may be in jeopardy. While you're thinking of what wolf to force a Herbalism role onto, a fur color reminiscent of a sand dollar flashes past your sight.

The first thing you notice are the leaves of carrionflower dappling her forehead with the sweet summer green of a healthy plant. She faces you, and winks tiredly. Her eyes...they're so peculiar, you almost jump... You're skeptical, but you listen to her words with open ears.

RULES AND BITS

Cowrie is not a regular Traveling Wolf! Her rules are different, as is how she functions. You may only keep her for as long as you need to forage herbs, mix medicine, train pups, or find another herbalist. This could be an incredibly short to a bit of a long time, but I please ask you not to go over 7 Rollovers. You do not need to write lore for her; she actually already has her own lore. That doesn't mean you aren't welcome to DM me about it, I will humbly put whatever you'd like in her Information Document. You do not need to put decor on her, but may do so if you wish. No matter what, please send her back to me at 7 Years.

• Do not chase her.
• Do not keep her indefinitely.
• Do not starve or allow her to get miserable to the point of leaving.
• Do not remove any decor added Period.
• Do not pairbond or breed her, as the energy drain is inconvenient.
• Make sure whoever receives her next actually needs a herbalist; she is not here to sit in your den and do nothing. If you cannot find someone, send her back to me.

After an hour or two of work, Cowrie brushes past you, a soft grin on the newfound ally. However, her eyebrows scrunch sadly, looking up at you from her smaller stature.

"My apologies. It was very nice to meet and treat every wolf that needed it here! However...I can feel it within my nostrils and pawpads...Another wolf is in need of medication, I sense. It calls to me from afar... and so I must take my leave. Thank you for having me! Just know, I may return one day if you don't get your herbalist in check, haha...Farewell!"

With that, the shell-hued canid took her leave, taking nimble steps with the swish of her tail trailing smoothly behind her. You bark a goodbye, thankful for her services. At that moment, you wondered if that legend about a traveling wolf granting wishes were true, as you head back to your den for the night.
