Marketplace
[/u][/center]Here, you can purchase things for your character and packs with the site currency ”hides.” Yes, as in animal skins. It was that or “rabbit butts” and we admins like to think of ourselves as classy folks (and also easily amused).
What are “hides?”
Hides are just the currency we use. You get eight of them per post. There are other ways to collect hides – such as advertising our forum, doing art for us, and completing threads.
For a thread to be considered “complete,” you must end it with all characters exiting the scene. For people who fully complete a thread, 20 hides are rewarded, and for threads with a large number of participants (excluding pack threads), each member will receive 50 hides. If you complete a thread, PM or alert an admin in the c-box!
Things That Apply To Your Character
Odd Colours/Markings
Price: 400 hides
Kindly note that non-natural colours (such as bright greens or blue) are not allowed. This sticks to colours not normally found in wolves – gingers, steelish/slate greys, strong reds, etc. It also covers patterns not normally found in wolves, such as brindling.
Hybrids
Price: 500 hides
So you want a wolf that’s half grey wolf, half coyote? Maybe some domestic dog thrown in there? This is for you. However, you must provide a backstory as to why this occurred – so no half-Mexican grey who are half Eurasian wolf too. Also note that if you want the coywolf route to read up on the communication problems that they have.
Species Pass
Price: 700 hides
This allows you to have a character of another species. Please note that we only accept members of the genus Canis – so no Ethiopian wolves, maned wolves, or foxes.
Height/Weight Breech
Price: 600 hides
Please Remember To Check What We Allow!
To have a character that breeches height and weight restrictions, this is for you. To go over 41”, you must pay 50 hides per inch.
Hyper-fertility
Price: 800 hides
To have your female wolf more likely to conceive, purchase this. Be sure to inform the polar bear.
Larger Litter
Price: 150 hides plus hyper-fertility
To have your wolf birth up to four more pups than the species average, purchase this. Also be sure to inform the bear! Note that larger litters can produce less healthy pups that are at the mercy of a polar bear’s dice rolls.
Loner Status
Price: 500 hides
To avoid the site being overrun by loners (as is the tendency for these roleplays), we have put a price on them rather than banning them completely.
Age
Price: 900 hides
On Calic, wolves die of age between nine and eleven years. To have a wolf breach this, you must pay 900 bones per extra year, with a maximum of fourteen, which costs 1000 hides.
Things That Apply To Packs
Immunity
Price: 800 hides
Make your alpha immune to being challenged for leadership. Alphas who have purchased extreme age cannot buy this, and if challenged, will likely be killed in a fight.
Extra Space
Price: 500 hides
Expand your territory by a square, and your maximum members by ten wolves.
However, to expand territory, at least 80% of pack wolves must participate in patrols of the new area, including the alpha. You have a week to do this.
If you fail to do this without an adequate reason (such as many players being away suddenly), you will not claim the territory, and 100 hides will be refunded. If you have a reason for it not being completed, all hides will be returned.
Other
Claim Territory
Price: 1100 hides
Unlike claiming pack lands, you only get a single square and a max of ten wolves until you earn enough to establish a proper pack. To have this, it must be approved by an admin and have at least three characters behind it.
Establish Pack
Price: 600 hides, plus Claim Territory
Make your rag-tag group of loners a proper, established pack, with their own board (instead of a sub-board) and everything! You must have at least five wolves to do this, a solid idea and a pack charter, as well as admin approval.
