ALL packs must post pack rules and ranks. Please do this ASAP. The royal pack's rules will trump subordinate packs' rules that go against them, but every pack needs guidelines - just make sure they're ones that cohere with what the royal pack has already set down as law. Also, to keep ranks within the packs straight, it is vital that there is some sort of system tracking them. And finally, this is necessary to keep an acurate member count for each kingdom.

Don't forget to vote for the MOTM & WOTM! Also, if you have any suggestions for a Site Plot please reply to the appropriate thread (it's an announcement on all boards, shouldn't be hard to find XP).
Thanks --Ryder
Hi all, if you have claimed a pack I have sent you a PM (let me know if I somehow missed you or made a mistake in the claims). Also, all packs should have pack rules and ranks, not just the "royal" packs, so... ya, i'll be setting a deadline if I don't start seeing some of those popping up. (I will sticky all pack rules & ranks so that they stay on the top of your pack board). Any questions, comments, concerns, etc PM me. Thanks.
--Ryder
There was a poll set a few days ago for the background. We want the site to be the best it can be. The poll can be found here. If you would please vote, then it will help us out loads. Thanks.

Ryder « Thread Started on Sept 13, 2008, 11:44am »
General Name: Ryder Gender: Female Species: Tundra Wolf Other: Queen of Lleingas
Physical Height: 31 inches Length: 62 inches Weight: 100 pounds Coat Color: red-brown Eye Color: bloodshot brown Health Issues: pelt is so scarred it’s difficult to stay warm during cold/wet weather Appearance: Ryder was once beautiful: A set of small, pointed ears were perched upon a noble head, with liquid black eyes a small space below. Her muzzle was small and narrow, making her jaw appear much more confined that it really was. Following her thick, heavily protected neck was her chest and torso, rippling with muscle and sinew beneath the hide. Ryder's coat was once glossy and full of vigor, unmarked by the hostility of the world. Dyed a rich, blood-red it gleamed with the glow of the sun, and the grey, black, and brown tints meshed perfectly. All four legs were small but sturdy, the bones strong and able to resist all elements. Ryder had been gifted with brawn, beauty, brains, and she made sure that the others were never to forget.
When tragedy struck and she was forced to fight for her life, Ryder's appearance was permanently changed. Her noble head was reduced to a fragile skull, black eyes reflecting the cruelty and hate the world had thrust upon her. Her petit muzzle was scarred and burned, leaving patches of hair missing for months. The rest of her body was covered with scars, and the only fur left had lost all luster. When the hair grew back it grew irregular and lumpy, speaking of all the damage beneath. Her defined body soon lost much muscle and tone, reducing her to a tattered skeleton with ribs that were always visible. Unable to accept her fall from glory, Ryder began to change, the sights she had seen doing unpleasant things to her mind. An air of malevolence and rage soon began to radiate from her, fangs stained with the blood of many. Present day Ryder looks skittish and violent, the edgy look in her eye warding off all others that would think to approach her. Her muscle tone has returned, but her pelt is a permanent reminder of her past.
Mental Mental Stability: insane History: Born November 27, 2005 to alphas Locke and Anu Tuit’alu, a beautiful litter of four. Ryder was born second, and even though she was female she was large, strong. She and her older brother, first born Lannon, are competitive from the start. Fighting over the best milk, the warmest spot, etc. Ryder and Lannon were the prize of the pack – the jewel of their parent’s eyes. The younger two are cared for, but Ryder and Lannon are nurtured. Lannon is to inherit the position of Alpha, but from the start Ryder aspires to claim the pack as her own.
Ryder grows up ambitious, beautiful, and ruthless. Haughty in her ability to have whatever she wants – or to take whatever she wants. Her cunning and agility in her youth is unmatched even by Lannon’s brute strength. She begins plotting her claim to power.
Lannon has become alpha, and even in a short time he has settled in as a respected and universally accepted leader. Ryder’s long, painstakingly thought out plan is put into effect.
She has the upper hand in the fight almost immediately, on the verge of accepting Lannon’s defeat, or killing him, when it happened. Apparently the pack wasn’t fond of her constant flaunting; proving again and again superiority in appearance, speed, intellect, anything she could beat someone at she would – shoving it in their faces. Ryder thought she was invincible, and her thingyiness nearly destroyed her.
The pack who, naturally, had been watching the battle over supremacy turned on Ryder. Not willing to accept her as alphess, consumed by their fear and hatred, they did one of the most dishonorable things a wolf can do; interfered in one-on-one combat. They lunged at her, in such numbers she had no hope of winning. She scored little damage before succumbing to the white-hot-blindliness of pain. They tore her apart, taking out their years of frustration. She clung to life because they didn’t kill her flat-out. They wanted her to suffer as much as possible. They tortured her to the brink of death, allowing her to drag herself away into obscurity – assuming she simply faded away to oblivion, a slow, treacherous death – deserved?
But she was underestimated, she did not lose her will to fight. She clung to life, day by day forcing herself to live. Still there are repercussions of that fateful day. Ryder is insanely wrathful and ruthless. She has fed her anger and it consumes her. Again and again she wakens from nightmares recalling that pivotal day in her past, livid.
Ryder joined forces with Titan about a year ago, a mate she had no feelings for, and together they built the kingdom of Lleingas. He was killed, but she continues to breed fighters, building an army to stain the world red.
She is a gruesome sight, reflecting the cruelty of the world with each scar and irregular lump. And who would want to speak to such a despised beast – to exchange words might insinuate familiarity. She is cursed, no d**ned, to live out the rest of her life as naught but a figure of hatred.
Most females of her age are settling down with their mates, but neither does she want this – nor is it plausible that she will obtain it. Because who can look past the exterior; that is, if she really is a ‘diamond in the rough’. Is her inside really any more beautiful than her out? Or is this a fitting existence?
It's all in the Past Bloodlines: Hodgepodge of Filth --->
Some Grandfather - Some grandfather | Locke - Daddy dearest | Ryder - The lovable antagonist herself
FAMILY: The wretched dysfunctional extraordinaire --->
Father: Locke Meridious – (Status: Unknown - preferably dead but it’s only a hope.) Mother: Anu Tuit’alu – (Status: Unknown and uncared about.)
Siblings: Lannon Meridious - Brother / As the first born of the litter he inherited his father’s middle name . (Status: It’d be like him to keep living simply to spite our dear Ryder.) Kaos Grey - An unfortunate brother (Status: Deader than a bad sense of humor.) Dia Grey - Sister (Status: Who cares.)
Personality: Ryder has always had a diverse range of personality traits, before and after the attack. However out of all the personality traits she has at one time possessed, kindness, concern, and compassion were not among them. As a pup Ryder had been arrogant and controlling, bending anyone she could to her will. The pack thought nothing of it and was often only irritated, wishing that the mother would get better control over child. When Ryder's mother did nothing the pup soon grew spoiled, perfecting the art of always getting her way. As she became older and stronger she found quickly how to dominate those around her, and reveled in her newfound power. Growing up without a higher authority had tainted Ryder into thinking none were above her, which was the first step into creating a monster.
As she matured nothing changed, except for the beauty she eventually acquired. With strength and looks she became haughty and flamboyant, deciding that everything belonged to her. She enjoyed being conceited and self-aware, and the only thing she really loved in the world was herself. However the hatred she instilled in the other wolves hearts caused them to gloat and tease her after the attack, seeking revenge when she was in her weakened state. The guilt they felt every now and then was dismissed, declaring that the fate that befell Ryder was fair. When Ryder had gone through the transformation she became someone entirely different, shrinking into a world of darkness that none could pull her out of; not that anyone tried. The once beautiful fae became morbid and withdrawn, never talking to those she roamed with. The others became suspicious and wary, staying away from the wolf with such crazed, eerie eyes. Soon none dared to talk to her much less make fun, and any weird deaths or strange happenings were blamed on the haunted female.
Becoming frightened by their superstitious beliefs they drove Ryder from their pack, where consumed with misery, she willingly obliged. From the day she had been banished, Ryder had been slowly twisting into a malicious killer, living for nothing but the taste of her brethren’s blood on her tongue.
