#wolf world

I'mma tell you about my wolves :D

Ok

SO

Essentially the basis for this world is wolves but make them MHA except there's no super OP power and few powers actually harm their user. There are three main packs that, in the current timeline, are now in shambles thanks to the main character crew, the most stable one being the one that was driven underground by the other two. There's also several thousand smaller packs but we don't get much into that bc it's not important to the plotline and one of them is just an excuse for my poly wolves

MOVING ON

Each Main Character Wolf (MCW) comes from somewhere different. Wick comes from The Pack Of Trees, Bite comes from The Pack Of The Snow, Festive comes from The Pack In The Darkness, and Shock is a lone wolf who accidentally found a hole filled with ghosts all pissed at one certain wolf who's essentially convinced all the other wolves he's a demigod (because yes they have religion, they're polytheistic, in fact).

Also wolves are not the only animals to have powers. Most mammals (excluding humans), some fish species and even a few bird and reptilian species have powers.

Also some notable facts:

-Wick gets in a fight with the pack's alpha in the middle of a fire. Their healer wolf also dies during this fight for semi-related reasons -The Demigod Wolf (Aka the All-Wolf, or simply Discord) has an absorption power and can take any power he wants as long as the wolf has been killed (which can get difficult if you ain't sneaki). He actually gained an anti-aging power that way; he's over 70 years old -Discord also killed Wick's brother, led the other packs to drive Festive's underground, and spread lies about hunting dogs in Bite's -Discord is ALSO holding his former mate hostage since she is the only one aware of how deep his cruelty and disregard for fellow wolves really runs -The whole Alpha system is based on nepotism. Alphas have pups which are required to take up the role when the Alpha dies or retires. The Beta is the Alpha's mate if they have one. If not it is the remaining parent. If neither is available, the Alpha's closest friend will be required to take the place until the Alpha takes a mate. -Most of the names of characters are based off of words in songs that stuck out to me (Wick, Festive, Shock, etc) -Yes. There is a Trypophobia wolf. She's creepy and paranoid and accidentally killed her mate

Requiem was coming over to his house.

Requiem.

Was coming over.

TO HIS HOUSE.

Carson had never been in such a strange mixture of disbelief, ecstatically overjoyed as well as never having been absolutely more horrified in his life.

God, what had he been thinking!? What had impelled him to invite her to the MADHOUSE that was his house. Carson normally got lucky and had the house pretty much to himself, His grandpa off in Alpha meeting as his Dad shadowed, while his mom was off with his dad Or with his aunt and uncle, and his brothers were anywhere but in his fucking face, which was all he cared about…. With the exception of Rigan. Of course. However…. Today…. Nearly the entirety of his brothers would be home.

He’d only found out after reading the Group texts between them, horrified to read as most decided to just opt out of whatever they usually did or have their plans canceled at the last minute. All of them would be home, and he couldn’t back out of hanging out with her because he had already seemed to desperate when he had asked that she’d never talk to him again if he pushed her away now.

What had he thought when he had invited her over her his house, that she would just slip naturally into place like she had always belonged there? That she would fit in seamlessly with his walls and his life and he’d finally found someone he might actually want to be with that wasn’t a close relative or friend? That she’d fit in so well with him and his life that she would never be able to imagine a life without him in ite, without her in it.

Well, Yes, but when HE had thought it, there was distinctly less Dhouti in it then there was now.

Carson waited at the  front of the school as he watched the students walk by. He drew in another drag from the cigarette in his hands, watching as the burning embers drew in more of the black smoke into his lungs. He breathed out as he flicked the end, allowing the ashh of his fifth cigarette since the bell had rung eleven minutes ago, and instead of the calm he would have felt, all Carson felt was his stomach sing and his heart turn to stone as it dropped to his gut.

His free hand moved to run a nervous shaking hand through his ink black hair, fingers pausing to curl into them as he  pushed his bangs back. The pan mixed with the soothing feeling of nails on his scalp pulled him from his mind, his now alive heart as it picked up to race like a hummingbird's wings trapped in a cage made of fragile bones. His whole body burned and ache with a apian that sent ripples of pleasure over his spine, and briefly, he wondered if he was going insane. He had to be...

It was insane that the anticipation and dread of seeing one girl could turn his world all topsy turvy.

It was insane to be looking up at the doors every time a person left them with hope in your eyes, only for it t die as you realized it was only some others student you didn’t care about.

It was insane to want to hang out with someone so badly that you forgot logic and possible dignity so that you could spend a few hours with her.

But here he was, To excited to leave, to desperate for just that little bit of time with her.

Well they don't have a specific notable pack personality trait, but the packs mainly get their skills from areas they live in (The Pack Of The Snow, for example, has adapted to icy hunting due to their northern settling)

Although most notable is The Pack In The Darkness. Not only have they mastered food conservation and stealth in the darkness, but their eyes have completely changed to adapt to the pitch black cave they reside in. They now have pupils that take up their entire frontmost eye, with a small, white, bioluminescent spot in the front that acts as a normal pupil would, lighting up wherever they look with just enough light for them to see properly.

The three main packs are only those because they are (or were, in the present case) the biggest packs of the continent.

Although no power is specific to one pack, there are some powers that can be considered 'evil' in certain packs, like fire in a forest-based pack (can easily be burned to the ground)

Also thanks to the Alpha system it's incredibly easy for corrupt wolves to rise to power and be near-impossible to overthrow, causing tensions between packs who are convinced other packs have 'corrupt and evil' Alphas

Well the wolves powers can be based on damn near anything, from elements to cliche superpowers to even fears!

No two powers are exactly alike or will be used in the exact same way, but more often than not, littermates will have similar powers or powers that compliment their siblings' powers nicely (EX; Smog and Wick). However I usually assign powers based on plot convenience. There are powers that can be considered 'OP' if you look at only the surface levels, like Absorption or Bestow, but how OP they are comes down to the wolf and how good they are with it. Also wolves can ONLY have more than one power in the event that they were gifted with it or absorbed it with their own power.

While having certain powers can make others feel superior, really those wolves that think like that are regarded as jerks and not to be taken seriously.
