Vulpecula Skies was founded by Silver Fox. While he wandered around the land to find a place to start his pack, he felt lonelier and lonelier. He kept thinking if it was worth it, because he could never find another lone wolf that he could start a pack with. Little does he know that he was blessed by the constellation Vulpecula which was why he looked like a silver fox while his siblings looked like their parents, and he later finds this out when a pale wolf comes out of the shadows to greet him -- claiming to be a shaman serving Vulpecula. She told him everything.

Told him that he is special, he was blessed by Vulpecula and she explained that he will always have a fox look-alike in his bloodline because of the blessing. Silver was skeptical at first, didn't believe her. "How could a constellation bless me? What makes me so special?" He could never accept those news. The shaman told him her name, Moon, and that she is chosen by Vulpecula to be his mate to start his pack. He could not reject her as his mate, she was beautiful so how could he refuse?

They create the pack, A Skulk of Foxes, and slowly but surely more wolves began to join. They claim to be sent by Vulpecula to join him and kept naming him Silver Fox. Because of that he changed his name to Silver Fox and slowly but surely began to believe that Vulpecula is a real deity of some kind. He asked Moon on what else does she know about the constellation and she explained that when someone in the pack dies they join Vulpecula in the stars, she also explained that several other constellations have their own deities. It seems that Vulpecula isn't the only one that has done what it has done.

Throughout his reign, he was not called a king due to his pack not being a kingdom considering there was not a lot of wolves that lived in the pack. The wolves were unorganised, caves being random and everyone living wherever they liked. It was peaceful even though there were some wolves that argued a lot with each other. It was a small and humble pack, wolves came and left, wolves died of old age and left behind generations. And, within time, wolves that grew up in the pack left for a new pack in order to feel like a free spirit.

He took in rogue wolves that were wandering on their own where Silver gave them a home, oftentimes they were old and Silver allowed them to stay throughout their retirement years. He was kind and generous to every wolf, fed them and played with them, gave them toys. Never once had a wolf gone hungry, even to those who were waiting to either be adopted or let into a new pack by whoever came around. No matter what, even if the food was scarce, he'd do what he can to make sure they got fed.

During his middle age, his belief in the star deities throughout his life gave him the ability to travel through dreamlands; a land that no ordinary wolf gets to explore. Silver did not keep what he knew to himself, he let everyone know so that they could keep their faith in Vulpecula if not stronger. It became a tradition to howl at midnight every night ever since Silver visited the dreamlands. Though he wished that others got to visit the dreamlands too, but since he was the lead and the only one blessed by Vulpecula, he got that privilege.

Silver was humble and sociable, treating everyone equally and did not give his relatives special treatment unless they were low on prey, there were no ranks or titles. The only times that an heir was cared about was when Silver Fox was in his last years and implemented a rule that the youngest pup of the lead wolf will be the heir. The heir, Platinum Fox, was treated differently compared to the pack. He was protected more, trained more, had more education, explored more, had better treatment with food and toys.

This was when rules and traditions began to change in the pack, things started to become more organised and it did cause a lot of wolves to leave due to the change considering they preferred the old way things were but some still stayed. The pack was still free, even though more rules were being enforced, wolves weren't forced to follow traditions.

The old traditions and rules:
Pack members didn't need pair bonds
Wolves can have many pups that they want and keep more than 2 if they wished
The pack can have as many alliances as possible
The lead can have many mates at once to get the right heir
Befriend every NBW

Continued traditions and rules:
Howling every night to Vulpecula
Praying to Vulpecula for anything
Celebrating the Founding Day
Every full moon has a celebration
Birthdays are celebrated

New traditions and rules:
Only befriend the necessary NBWs
Trades are according to its worth
Every pair bond can have up to two pups only, unless a third or fourth pup is too pretty to let go
Caves are determined by the type of base (ie. monochrome, muted, etc)
Fox relatives have their own base and have privileges
The lead can only have one mate, but can have a pup from a different mother
Only the youngest will become the heir

When Silver Fox died, Platinum fox became the new lead wolf. Silver Fox will always be remembered for his kindness and as the founder of the pack, and the start of a dynasty.

Everyone in the pack knew Platinum was special when he was born. In a litter of four, he was the youngest but he was the only one that looked different. His fur, even though resembling a platinum fox, had blue here and there which is not natural to any normal wolf and his eyes were a deep indigo colour that was unlike any other. There were other wolves who were of different unique and unnatural colours, but something about Platinum Fox made many realise that Silver Fox's legacy is just beginning.

He did not know his mother, Moon Fox, for very long. She died when he was only six months old and it left him to be raised by his older sister and his father to prepare him for leadership. Being the rightful heir to his father's position, he had the entire pack have a lot of expectations from him but all that pressure did not deter him from wanting to lead and it did not make him want to rebel, instead, he dedicated his entire life to his pack and to do whatever he could to make it better.

During his youth, he spent every hour scouting and exploring to get stronger and better fitted to be a leader. Hours of lessons from his father to know what to do when a pack wants to be allies or enemies, what to do when wolves fight, so on. Platinum has always been groomed to be the best leader the pack can ask for when his father was to pass on and join Vulpecula.

He met his mate, Luna Fox, when he was scouting; her deep blue coat completely infatuated him to want to make her his. Luna, being the social wolf that she was, wasn't afraid of talking with strangers. They talked and talked throughout the entire day and night to a point where Silver Fox thought he was in trouble, so he went to look for him to only find Luna and Platinum talking. One invitation later, Luna Fox joined and completely agreed to be Platinum's mate.

When Platinum Fox was three years old, Silver Fox passed away and leadership fell on Platinum Fox. With that responsibility and his dedication to the pack entirely, he stood his ground with every challenge. There were some wolves in the pack that did not think that new leads had to be by Silver Fox's blood, they said it was a pack and not a kingdom, it does not need heirs. Platinum Fox was no pushover. Despite being very friendly and kind, he was a large wolf who knows where his place is in the world and he did not let the smaller and weaker wolves challenge him. Those wolves left for good after Platinum bested them all.

The wolves who stayed believed that his bloodline is very special and brilliant after they witnessed him be so strong, everything about him made their belief in Vulpecula even stronger. Throughout the years, Platinum proved himself to be better than Silver Fox ever could be. Because he was a scout, he did enough exploring to believe he did not need to rescout certain biomes, he did not see a need to have to explore everything all over again. So he spent most of his time at home to grow his territory further and further, he had this vision to turn the pack he was born in into a kingdom. However, his lifetime only made it into an Alphadom.

When it became an Alphadom, he named anyone related to his bloodline and their mates to be the Alphas of the pack, the Betas being those whoever is related to the mates and their pups, Omegas being everyone else. It was a lot for the pack to handle at first when he was giving titles but they got used to it eventually, though it did cause others to leave. Platinum Fox had always felt like he failed when wolves left but he only gained new members, unfortunately, other bloodlines had not continued from when Silver Fox was the leader and he has always seen that as a failure.

Platinum Fox had his firstborn, Chicory Fox, with a different female. Considering he is continuing what his father started by having multiple partners, it has become a tradition to have the eldest pup of his be from a different female while his heir is from his one true mate. Chicory was very keen nonetheless to serve his father with whatever his father wanted, where Platinum assigned him to be a hunter, Chicory never wanted to be anything that wasn't hunting after that. Platinum felt pride that his son wasn't bitter or sour for being the eldest son from a different mother, knowing well that some wolves don't often like to be second best.

Two to three years later, Platinum Fox's heir was born who he named Marble Fox. At first, Platinum was unsure about Marble Fox, considering he looked nothing like a marble fox, in fact, he was completely black in colour with grey and white tufts. He would ask Luna if she was sure that was his name, but she only replied that she had a dream from Vulpecula that his name is Marble Fox. Platinum Fox was worried that Marble Fox would not look like what he is supposed to look like but as Marble grew, his fur began to get lighter. He started to get the same blue colour as his father, and more white began to cover the black. With that, Platinum got to relax and asked Vulpecula for forgiveness for doubting.

There were issues where the growing number of wolves were causing food and amusement to become very scarce, scouts were struggling to bring back the feathers and toys they come across and hunters were struggling to catch medium and large sized prey. Because of this, Platinum Fox decided to train the specific wolves to make them better at scouting and hunting and eventually the prey and amusement items frequency increased gradually. Though now and then, they would still struggle as the scouts were unable to scout in the other biomes to make them accessible to explore. But Platinum did not mind because he focused on the pack rather than exploring.

When he did explore, he came across other packs willing to trade him high-value wolves so that he may breed with them to get more. They gave him ideas that if he chases the ones with inbred lines and long lineages that they could be found by other packs who are willing to have them, restarting their bloodline. To Platinum, it was a great idea because he wants to be able to give other packs amazing wolves by doing that, and he always hopes that they can be found. He goes through territories to see if they are found and happy, but he is not always successful.

Fortunately, Platinum lived to see Marble grow into adulthood before he died in his sleep. Though he died leaving Luna behind but that does not mean he isn't there to still watch over her.

During his reign, he proved himself to be a very strong and dedicated leader while still maintaining his kindness. He is known by the members who remember him that he was the builder of the pack because he spent most of his time building the foundations Silver Fox started, making the territory stronger than before, and because Platinum Fox wanted to grow the pack and create better defenses and sturdier caves. The foundation he built will last much longer, making it so that the leaders to come do not have to work too hard to maintain a weak foundation.

There are traditions that Platinum Fox kept but also got rid of traditions that were not needed, as well as creating new traditions to fit the Alphadom better.

The old traditions and rules:
Caves are determined by the type of base (ie. monochrome, muted, etc)
Fox relatives have their own base and have privileges

Continued traditions and rules:
Howling every night to Vulpecula
Praying to Vulpecula for anything

New traditions and rules:
Caves are according to the title given (Alphas, Deltas, Betas have their own caves)
The Families of Alphas, Deltas and Betas have to work as hard as everyone else
Only have the necessary breeders
Chase inbred or long lineage high-value wolves so that they can be befriended by someone else
Trade objects according to the common price in the trade centre
