Pack Ranks « Thread Started on Feb 24, 2008, 3:20am »
Pack Ranks (Listed in order highest to lowest)
Alliance King/Queen~
These male and female pairs come underneath the HKQ, like how the Jack comes underneath the Queen in Solitaire. They are the King and Queen of their pack (well, Duh!). They make sure their alliance is in tip top shape so they don't fall behind in the race to be the Best. They have the power to hold meetings and where they choose, tell who's in the battle and who's out, find better sources for food and water etc. They can abdicate whenever they wish, and new elections will be held. Non-moderators unless Admin or Co-Admin decides otherwise.
Alphas~
A male and female; the leaders of the pack. They set the mood of the pack and watch over the ranks. If found appropriate, assign positions to new members. The alphas are mates and are the most important mating pair. The Alphas are also the first to feed on a kill. They will attack a wolf for trying to eat before them or pester them while they are eating. When the alpha male is done he may stand guard while the alpha female eats, against the other pack members.
Betas~
The second-in-command to the Alphas. They make sure the pack runs smoothly when one or both Alphas are absent. They handle the day-to-day running of the pack and are mentors for Assessments. The Betas can be mates, along with the Alphas of the pack. Betas feed after the Alphas and after them all the other ranks eat together. If an Alpha dies, the Beta usually moves up a rank.
Sentinels~
The pack's first line of defense against outside threats. They are the enforcers of the pack rules and Laws. They greet visitors and find out their intentions, either hostile or friendly. If friendly, they try to make newcomers feel welcome. Sentinels also help to mediate conflicts within the pack.
Hunters~
Oversees hunting. Buries and/or stores kills if there is a lack of prey, and makes sure the pack is capable of going on hunts for large game. When the pack hunts as a group, the Hunters make sure everyone gets a chance to participate.
Caretakers~
The Caretaker is a wolf who likes pups and caring for others. The Caretaker's job is to watch over the pack's pups as well as the injured. This rank is mainly held by female wolves.
Alpha Pups~
Simply... The Alpha male and female's offspring.
Beta Pups~
Again, Simply... The Beta male and female's offspring.
Omegas~
Lowest rank in the pack. The Omega is the wolf that all the wolves, higher ranked, usually pick on. Sometimes the Omega can be a past Alpha who lost their position in the pack or a younger wolf submissive to all other pack members.
Assessments~
Wolves hoping to become pack members, currently going through a "getting to know you" period. They have no ranking, but they will when the Alphas choose one that fits them.
An animal that is a trusted servant and close friend of the Alpha wolves. Also an effective scout and adviser. A Support animal has a close bond with the Alpha pair's offspring and teaches them things the other wolves cannot, as well as life lessons. The support animal can only be from the canine line. That means a fox or an abandoned dog are the most recommended.
