Future Plans for the Pakkyon:
- Stop breeding wolves for a while. Implement a rule where wolves can only have pups after turning 6. This will be to keep the Pakkyon at a manageable size, while also allowing for focus on building up skills and levels for pre-existing wolves.
- Pick next leader. The Founder is nearing the end of her days. Soon another will need to step up and take the role of leader.
- In reguards to travelers. Starting after Natika and Korous, any Pakkyon-Borne puppies who reach 6 months of age will leave the Pakkyon as travelers. This will not extend to wolves who joined the Pakkyon as puppies- only the ones who were born there. The plan to stop breeding wolves until a specific time in their lives will help to ensure that the Pakkyon does not have an overwhelming number of travelers out at any given time.

Bloodlines:
Each wolf has a special emoji (or 'Marker') for their Bloodline. Bloodline Markers pass down from Parent to Offspring. If the wolf the parent paired with is not of the Pakkyon, the offspring will only bear the mothers Marker. Ex: Mother Wolf ((π«)) has puppies with a stud wolf form a different pack ((no marker)), then the offspring can only inherit the mother's marker ((π«)). On the other hand, if two wolves (a mated pair or otherwise) have a litter of pups, the puppies will then inherit both of the parent's markers. Ex: Mother Wolf ((π«)) and Father Wolf ((π¦)) have a litter. Offspring Result 1 ((π«π¦)), Offspring Result 2 ((π«π¦)), and so on and so forth.
Other Bloodlines Keys:
((g# Marker)) = Generation Number, Marker. Unlike G#, which is Group Number. Any Bloodline Marker that does not have g# before it, is the original marker. unless it is:
((t. Marker)) = Twin Marker. These are wolves in the Pakkyon who are an original Gen, which means neither parent is in the Pakkyon. However, if they have a Twin with their marker, that means that both wolves are siblings, both with parents outside the Pakkyon, but sharing their Bloodline nonetheless.

L = Lead (Ex: L.H. -> Lead Hunter)
H = Hunter
C = Chaser (Ex: H.C. -> Hunter Chaser)
F = Finisher (Ex: H.F. -> Hunter Finisher)
G# = Group # (In order of experience/synergy)

Titles & Naming, Jobs and Dens:
Wolves are giving either Names or Titles to show what their job in the Pakkyon are. These wolves will also sometimes sleep in separate dens depending on their Rank or Role. All jobs are important, even being on stand-by to fill roles as needed is a necessary part of the Pakkyon. It is decided by the Founder and by Lead Roles where pups will begin their training, often as soon as they turn 6 months old. The pups will move to the appropriate dens to begin their training. All wolves have the choice to retire at age 7.
Job Names:
The many jobs and titles of the Pakkyon Wolves. Some are earned through reward or training, while others are more basic.
Healer- The wolf or wolves who deal in remedies and injury. Lead Role.
Puprearer - A Wolf who looks after and protects pups. A Pupsitter. Lead Role.
Storkwolf- A Wolf who dedicates their life to bearing and rearing pups. Support Role.
Scouts - Wolves who travel the lands to discover and learn. Lead Role.
Hunt Leads - These are wolves who are the heads of hunts. Each has their own hand-picked group and are often in friendly competition to hold the honor of being the Group 1 Hunters, as it comes with more honor and perks within the Pakkyon. Lead Role.
Hunt Wolves - These are wolves who are train or are in training to become Hunters. They are chosen into groups by Hunt Leads, and work together to provide food for the Pakkyon. Support Role.
Nonpurposed - This role is not a shameful one, no matter how the name sounds. These are the extra wolves of the Pakkyon. Wolves who trained for specific jobs, but were pushed out due to crowding or lack of skill. Instead of being chased away, these wolves stand by in case there is ever a gap in the workforce that needs to be filled. Otherwise, they do odd jobs like keeping the Pakkyon cleanly, building up Pakkyon defenses, or standing Guard against enemies of the Pakkyon. Support Role.
Unpurposed - Now this is a shameful role to play. The Unpurposed are wolves within the Pakkyon who have committed one crime or another, causing them to fall from grace. These wolves are all but shunned, being stripped of whatever their previous title had been and also whatever perks or luxuries had gone with their ex-title. These wolves are often loathed and or pitied by their fellows in the Pakkyon, who ignore them or walk all over them. These Unporpused are made to do all the unpleasant duties- cleaning out dens and carrying heavy catches back from hunts. They are used as punching bags and are not allowed to eat until every other wolf- even the youngest of pups- has had their fill. They are of the lowliest of the low. Outcasted Role.
Special Titles:
Titles that have been given as a reward to those who earn them.
"The Everwalker" - To earn this title, the earn-ee must be over the age of 7, must have retired, and must be the oldest retired wolf in the Pakkyon. There is no holder of the Everwalker title currently, but there have been 2 in the past: Evagie, the first Everwalker of the Pakkyon, and Hyeummbatt, the second Everwalker. It is a very noble title that carries with it the highest of honors and respect.
"Storkwolf" - Although already mentioned above, this is still counted as a 'Special Title', as well as a job role, because it is so rarely bestowed to wolves in the Pakkyon. The title is given to wolves who decide to dedicate their lives to having and raising puppies, instead of pursuing other jobs in the Pakkyon. It is very rare that a normal Puprearer (who only looks after puppies and does not routinely have them) will get the title of Storkwolf, although it is possible. There can be multiple Storkwolves, although there are currently none. It is a very respectable and brave title to hold.
"The Worldwalker" - This is a unique title granted to only one wolf in the Pakkyon: Roekie. This title was granted to Roekie, the granddaughter of The Founder Glacieus, for her ability to walk between different worlds.
"The Fernfur" - Another unique title, granted only to one wolf: Tenyrout. It's for his mystically forest-like appearance and aura. He worships the world and it's gifts and lessons, and is viewed as a spiritual link for the Pakkyon. For now, he is the only wolf who holds this title, but it is currently being discussed by Role Leads if- due to their similar mystical appearance- Tenyrout's two daughters Milstka and Tenyett might one day be bestowed with the title of Fernfur In hope that they, too, would connect to the world spiritually like their father. It is undecided for now, however, as both girls are decidedly more focused on learning the craft of the hunt. If bestowed with the title, they would need to forfeit their paths in hunting to join their father in his lessons. Since neither seems particularly interesting in doing so at the moment, it has been decided that the descision will be held off until both pups are more grown.
"A Leader's Title" - Is what is bestowed to the leader of the Pakkyon. It describes them in the eyes of their loyal packmates, and holds the all the weight in the world. Most wolves are told that speaking to the leader by their title instead of their name is the proper way, only speaking their true name if granted the permission. The current and only leader at the moment, however, could care less. The only leader the Pakkyon has ever known is it's founder: Glacieus. She is a kind wolf, who rules over the Pakkyon with a steady hand, and is very deeply respected. Her title is "The Founder" or simply "Founder", for her role in the creation of the Pakkyon. A Leader's Companion can also receive the title, and will retain the title even when the Leader passes, and a new Leader takes their place. The Leader's Companion must not be mistaken for a Starchosen, who is the wolf that will inherit the Pakkyon.
"Starchosen" - A wolf that is Starchosen is the next leader of the Pakkyon. There has not been a Starchosen picked in the past, but as The Founder Glacieus grows older each day, the Pakkyon has begun to wonder if the likelyhood of that wolf being chosen will happen any day.
Dens:
The locations in the Denplace where the different Pakkyon members sleep each night.
The Leader's Den - Realistically, this is where the Leader and her Companion and Puppies will sleep. It's located at the Upper Peak, in the Sky Den. Safe from predators, and overlooking the rest of the Dens Below.
The Honored's Caves - These caves for the most honored of the pack sit snug between two jutting rocks, far away from the Denplace Entrance. It's easy to navigate but hidden from those who do not know where or how to look. The ceilings are high, but there are places to nest that are snug and warm among the stones and moss. This place is also where honorable Travellers will rest their heads while staying with the Pakkyon.
The Precious One's Caves - A tad bit less accessible than the Honored's Caves, but just as comfortable, warm, and safe, is the Precious One's Cave. On an almost elaborate trail through a tricky tunnel of stones, sits the cozy caves of the Precious ones. Puppies, along with their Mother's and their caretakers the Puprearer's. It's one of, if not the most secured den-spots in the Denplace. Guards are often posted outside for extra protection against predators, and even Honored Traveler's are not permitted to enter these dens.
The Scout's and Hunt Leads Den - This den sits in a cut in the stony mountain landscape, looking clearly over the Denplace Entrance as well as the rest of it. It's easily accessible, but safe from the winds, keeping it nice and warm for the wolves who sleep there. It's also got the fourth best bedding in the Denplace, besides the Honored Ones, Leaders, and Pups Dens. When it is warm enough, it also has a clear enough view of the sky, making it an ideal place to sleep below the stars.
Huntress' and Hunter's Dark Cavern - The biggest of the den's by far is the gaping open cavern that sits at the base of the Denplace. It's far-off ceilings and how deep it goes it astounding, but also not the warmest. In some of it's deeper spots, it's also very dark and damp. The deepest and darkest parts of the Cavern are normally not used by the wolves who sleep there, who instead often sleep just off the entrance of the den- in a little area of nests. It's very open and not extremely warm by itself, but the number of wolves who sleep there make it warm enough to be comfy.
The Guard's Post - Admittedly, this isn't so much a den as it is a job-spot. Nonpurposed wolves will often be posted as guards around the Denplace when they are not needed elsewhere, but they still normally sleep in the Dark Cavern alongside the Huntress' and Hunter's.
The Outcasted Nest's - This one isn't so much a den, as it is just an allowed sleeping area. The Outcasted are not beloved by the Pakkyon, and therefore are not given a specific place to sleep. They are normally told to sleep on the Outskirt, which is a place just outside the Denplace. It's difficult to get to- through a very narrow path through a crack in the earth, which even goes underground at one point. When it opens up again, it's onto a little ledge outlooking the Denplace and sitting beside some tree's and forest. There's a small overhang there, but otherwise the Outcasted who is banished to sleep there is on their own with the elements. Sometimes, when it's storming bad, the Outcasted wolf may be allowed to stay in the Denplace, given that they can find some nook to crawl up in. If a Outcasted is not given permission to sleep in the Denplace, or they sleep too close to The Honored or The Precious' den, then they will be punished accordingly.
