I wouldn't mind Lupania. It's a nice name.

Also, I just realized why you call yourself Apple. Your tag is round and green like an apple. I like Golden Delicious better, but I don't mind a Granny Smith.

Lupania would also imply that the constellation Lupus plays a role. Perhaps they tie it into the Ancestors. Maybe that's where they believe they go when they pass on.

That would fit in nicely with my lore. I had decided, but not yet written, that my wolves don't pay much mind to the Lunar world because they quickly realized that it wasn't the land of the Ancestors. Maybe the Lupus constellation is the land of the Ancestors.

That and I once spent far too much time calculating my weight in medium-sized apples to meme a tiktok with the audio "30 rats in a trenchcoat" but make it accurate to me... and apple themed!

Shadow Runners are still learning what they believe in and perhaps they'll create their own mythos based upon the others and their own experiences.

I've decided Aife and Pathrunner are at odds for the role of leadership, with Tigernach playing referee to their bickering and trying to keep the peace for the sake of the children. Crydellyad is the closest they've got to a healer, and Cellach is probably just as overprotective of his mother as his mother is to him and his brother. Urbgen and his sister Epona are twins in everything except their eye color, and are super close to each other as a result. Cynwrig thinks he can control his litter because he's the biggest, but he's decent at being an oldest brother and wants to lead his own pack someday. Sadb is the runt of the litter but the keenest of sight - nothing gets past her except Urbgen and Epona's antics. She doesn't like the fact her mother fights with Pathfinder, but she's too young to do much about it.

I can't wait to unleash them all into the group lol

I know that River's pack believes in The Tribe of Endless Hunting from WarriorCats, if I remember correctly.
My pack believes in this:

After a wolf of the Moonstone Lake Pack dies, it enters the Meadow Lands. This place is just called Meadow Lands; it's actually a far and wide land, with many different biomes and places.
In the Meadow Lands, it's always Spring and around 15°C-20°C (that's 58-68°F) because that's what the wolves of the pack prefer, and there's always enough prey. The wolves will choose how old they want to be there and if they want to let scars or impairments heal. (If they even have some.)
They never need to, but if they want to, they can be reborn at any time. They won't remember anything, but as soon as they die again, they'll enter the Meadow Lands again and remember everything from both of their lifes. They can be reborn as often as they want to.

In the Cave of Visions, there were different tunnels. Each herbalist wouls follow the one that leads to their pack's ancestors.

This is how I describe my pack's religion in my pack lore...
The wolves of Honeywood Pack are not overtly religious, but they do practice a form of ancestor worship. Wolves who have passed on gain mystical powers which strengthen over time. Eventually, they are able to affect the living world. Ancient wolves or simply "the Ancestors" are capable of helping or hurting the living in a variety of ways. They can make hunts more successful, prevent injuries, help puppies survive, etc. They can even help lone wolves or unwanted puppies find where they belong. Tala, the she-wolf who welcomes new Alphas to these lands, was chosen by the Ancestors for this duty and they generally protect her from harm. Recently dead wolves can communicate with their loved ones in the living world through dreams, but it is difficult with their weak powers, so they will only do so in a life or death emergency. A wolf may pray to the Ancestors in general for help, which is a common practice when giving birth or setting out on a hunt, especially in winter. Or a wolf may address their plea to a particular Ancestor who they believe has the experience to guide them in their current situation.

I love Lupania!

I named my pack The Pack of the Shadowed River and The Pack of Endless Hunting kinda just fit the theme, I think.

That's all very cool!

Also, I continued making the map, but I need to know from you where you want your camp to be and if you want any special places in your territorry I should implement in the map.

I just startes doing the Taiga and the Mountains. The Riparian Woodland is the biome southly to the Taiga if you're wondering, Apple.
