Set in the post-apocalyptic wasteland of former New York City, wolves are the dominant race. But life is not easy in the maze of burnt houses and crumbling skyscrapers, and the situation is growing more and more dire. As time passes, the story takes a darker turn. Centered around a leader with the idea of summoning a god called Osaron to deliver the wolves from misery, the pack rituals are turning bloody. As pups are snatched in the dead of night, it's no longer clear if Osaron is god or demon. Will you take part in the bloodshed or dissent and rebel against the pack under a sky filled with the smoke of war?

`` announcements ~
Autumn is now officially over, and we will begin making our transition into winter. All new threads must be set with winter weather in mind. Obviously, this does not have to mean immediate snow, but it shouldn't be lovely and autumn-y either. All current fall threads should be wrapped up at earliest convenience.

Falling Stone Pass Museum Mile. Along the streets of Fifth Avenue lie several dilapidated museums. The grounds around these museums, once well kept, are overgrown but provide foliage for deer and some water sources. The museums themselves are full of odd artifacts, once carefully preserved but now usually destroyed beyond repair. Some of the hardier statues and carvings remain, but more often than not the winding halls are used for shelter.
Smokewood Forest Central Park. Once beautifully and carefully landscaped, the park has now been overtaken by wildlife. It is the closest to a forest that the ruins of the city can produce. Ponds offer a source of water while trees shelter and provide for prey. Hidden by overgrown plants and vines are park benches and statues.
The Grey Plains Time Square. A large stretch of street, with rotting billboards and signs from centuries past. Sparse grass spreads up through the cracks. Cars and buses line the sidewalks. There is almost no cover here, so while one might be stretching their legs, the next they might have to scurry for safety.
Darkmouth Grand Central Terminal. This subway station leads to a network of underground tunnels which were once a large part of transport. Now, the subways are infamous as the base for the pack, with a single leftover train close to the main station providing a comfortable den area. Underground, wolves are safe from raptors and can hunt cockroaches and rats, but there is no source of water, and it is very dark.
Crooked Run Chinatown. One of the more residential areas in the city, this place does not seem any different to the wolves and is just another stretch of land. The cramped tenement buildings provide a cozy setting to those wolves who don't mind small spaces. The atmosphere here is kinder than in the rest of the harsh city; somehow, despite the fact that this place is as rotten as any other, the desolation is not so stark.
The Ashlands Ground Zero. The bleakest area of the city's ruins. During the fall of mankind, this place had been a symbol of hope but mostly of loss. Old construction vehicles lay toppled across the dusty rubble of the area. This place is very open and provides almost no resources. However, for those who like height, one crane is still standing and can be scaled so one may look over the land.
The Skypath The Brooklyn Bridge. An ancient suspension bridge that still stands strong, crossing the East River. Careful wolves can head down to the beaches and docks though the water is not good to drink. Underneath the bridge on land some might choose to dwell. The area is free of raptors.
Graveyard Island Coney Island. An amusement park resort with a beach alongside the Atlantic Ocean. Perhaps one of the most interesting parts of the city, this land contains old roller coasters, ferris wheels, and other attractions that have not been running for more than a century. Amongst the tall tracks and hills of the coasters are moldy haunted houses and slick-floored bumper cars.
Chatter You can talk about anything here; keep it reasonably appropriate. Within are boards for forum games and graphic shops if you're skilled like that.
