The Ranks of Sakotad

*+~The Konge and Dronning:

This is the Alpha (Konge) and Alphess (Dronning) of Sakotad. They have completely equal powers. In the event that they have a disagreement, they will turn to the Knowing, who will make the final decision. This is done only if they absolutely cannot agree, nor meet in the middle.

Konge - Widget

*+~The Knowing:

The Konge and Dronnings advisor, and the wisest member of the pack. Not nessicarily the strongest or fastest. This wolf is prized for his/her decision making abilites and opinions.

*+The Seeing:

The strategist of Sakotad. This wolf is cunning, rather than wise, and helps make decision involving battle strategies, food rations and others of the like. They are the most well rounded fighter in the pack and must be skilled in both mind, speed, and strength. They must first get the opinion from either the Konge, Dronning, or Knowing before banishing a member. They also double as the leader of The Force.

*The Resurrection:

These are the Healers of the pack. They must know about every kind of herb and its effect on the body, whether good or bad. There is a leader for this group, known as the Willow.

Willow - None

*The Force:

These are the main fighting force of Sakotad. There usually isn't a need for them, since Sakotad is a peace making pack, but Widget is always aware of the possibility of an invasion. The Seeing is the leader of this group.

The Silent:

The spies of Sakotad. Like messengers, they travel to other lands, but must be absolutely silent about it. They are quiet, and normally a smaller, darker wolf. They are normally only sent out when word of war spreads to Sakotad. There is a leader for this group, known as the Shade.

The Shade - None

The Voice:

Messengers of the pack. They must be swift and have a good 'fight or flight' instinct. They travel to other lands with messages from the Konge or Dronning. They do not have the power to accept new members, but must call upon a more high ranking one. There is a leader for this group, known as the Song.

The Song - None

The Kind:

These are the brood mothers of the pack. Any she-wolf who becomes pregnant will take this rank, and stay in one of the Resurrections dens until she gives birth. After 6 months, the pups will be taken to be trained in their (the pups) field of choice.

The Subordinate:

This is the rank you will start out with - if your character is over 1 year of age - until you are ranked by either the Konge, Dronning, or the Knowing. This is only a half-step above the Learned, and they will be expected to perform duties around the pack.

The Learned:

Pups between the age of 6 months and a year. They will have a mentor from the rank that they wish to join. Example: Bob the puppy wants to join the Voice. An experienced member from the Voice will teach him everything that he needs to know. This includes things like hunting, location of the borders, and common sense.

The Young:

These are the pups of the pack, 6 months of age or younger.

The Trapped:

This is the lowest rank of Sakotad. They have absolutely no power whatsoever, and usually end up having to do difficult jobs. This rank is usually recieved when a wolf does something foolish during acceptance, shows disrespect or treachery. There is no leader for this group.
