Ciroc is an any-level, semi-fantasy wolf RPG set on a small collection of isles and islets that the inhabitants roam freely on. For right now this is a play-by-post roleplay, though we do allow mini-plots. Come join us!
Out on the distant ocean in its vast entire rests a horde of small, but significant isles. Upon these water-bound isles reside societies of wolven kind. The four main land areas all house an individual pack, and each pack is unique in each's own way. For now, peace dominates the population and the land is ease, but how long does such bliss always last? A new threat is bound to arrive and little can be predicted upon how this will impact Ciroc inhabitants...
Hello Ciroc! :3 There's a few things that are going on. First, Voltaine and Amitel are both having pack plots. You can check them out in the plottage board. If you haven't heard, there's also the pack war that's soon to come. Start making more warriors! The rules have been updated to allow alphas and betas pick their own mates instead of the staff choosing. Challenge and fighting rules are being posted, but still need to be added onto. The december OTMs thread has been posted, so check that out! Also, it's winter! We're probably going to be expecting lots of pups through winter and spring, so if you want to tryout for a pup keep your eyes peeled for any adoptions. A shop has been to Ciroc, so check that out and suggest some more items for it! Also, Amitel's activity is picking up which is a great sign. That should be it, thanks! <3
Winter!
Winter has come to the isles and is definately leaving a mark. The snow has settled very thick in some parts and most of the trees are stripped bare of all leaves. The sea around Ciroc has even frozen over, and large game have migrated to warmer and lusher regions leaving mostly small prey for the Ciroc wolves. Lakes and other shallow bodies of water are likely to be frozen, though streams and rivers still run freely.

» archives (2 sub-boards) Threads that haven't been replied to/modified in three or four weeks will be locked and moved here. Old character bios will also be moved here. Okay, pretty much anything old you can count on going here!
» the log Once you make your first character, it'd be awesome if you could start a log to put a list of all your characters on so we can easily see who plays what character.
» accepted characters (6 sub-boards) All accepted characters and their information will be moved to here for everyone's viewing pleasure. This board is divided into about 5 or 6 sub-boards to keep organized.
» voltaine (2 sub-boards) At the head of the chain of islands is a large section of land that harbors the artful Voltaine wolven. The terrain is thick with vines and creeping undergrowth. This isle has a jungle-like geography and requires great skills for one to tread through it.
» ithric (2 sub-boards) Venture down to the bottom-most portion of Ciroc and you will happen upon the isle claimed by the Ithric members. The landscape here could not differ more from that of the far Voltaine with gentle rolling hills only flawed by a few misplaced, scraggly trees that speckle the earth haphazardously.
» rayth (2 sub-boards) To the left of the Voltaine quarters nestle the gathering of Rayth hounds. These lithe, slim wolves are extremely quick and keen runners. They have to be to run down their prey across the flat, grassy ground that is the makeup of their home. A body with sharp eyes could see from end to end from the isle with little obstacles to get in the way.
» amitel (2 sub-boards) Listen now and be enveloped by the harmony of natural wildlife. East of Ithric is the quietly situated isle of Amitel. This terra is pure woodland and is idea for those of the lobo race for it is the image of their original homeland. Here majestic trees shoot up from the ground in abundance and the soft mumbles of other wildlife can always be heard.
» shoreline Glittering white sand glares back angrily at eyes. The sun reflects off the pure, pale surface of the Shoreline so powerfully that a light seems to be cast from it. This free land is located loosely around a bunching of smaller tid-bits of land and is littered with patches of scruffy grass and luxurious palm trees that bear fruit during the good seasons. Here any are free to roam from any of the main isles.
» loner isle During a massive hurricane that pounded into Ciroc, a small isle formed from a few sandbars and islets. Although it isn't much, loners can roam freely on it for shelter, companionship, or just as a safe place to rest once in a while. Like a bigger version of an islet, this place is mostly rocks and sand, but towards the center sparse vegetation grows.
» islets Also isles of Ciroc; these more miniature masses of land are much to downsized to promote life and have little natural resources to live off of. Besides the lack of proper living materials, these portions of land are open for exploring and can sometimes hold surprises for those willing to search.
» sandbars Feeling a little wild, loose, and dangerous? Canines looking for a good thrill might come here and pace boldly upon the shallow, unpredictable sandbars that stretch from the reach of the solid Shores. Some of the small, sand mini islands can disappear in a matter of seconds and the waves can swiftly snatch a body into the mercy of the sea.
» burnt shores At this landmark beach is a much more different scenery then one would usually expect a beach to be. Due to the recent activation of the volcano and the eruption, the once clean shores are now covered in a fine layer of volcanic ash. Thus giving the appearance that the ground beneath it burned and scorched. Treading across this particular extent of earth always leaves one's paws dyed black by ash and the water around the isle is always a dull grey from this.
» hot springs Inside speckled craters on the isle housing the volcano bubbles liquid radiating a gentle auburn beam. The water housed in these pockets is usually heated by the underground sources and are like this year-round. Some pools are boiling in their temperature and any wolf dim enough to not check can easily be broiled by these steaming baths. Other springs, though, reach a pleasant temperature that are enjoyable during the winter times and can relieve mild stress with the water's soothing comfort.
» tar pits In the southern bottom of the isle gurgles death traps of an oozing, dark fluid-like substance that also lets off its own source of heat. These tar wells have a noticeable stench about them that is somewhat musty and undesireable that clings to whoever has been near them. It would not be necessarily wise to climb into one of the holes, seeing that the thick tar is always hungry and will drag anything down into its endless, vile depths.
» black cliffs Jutting precariously out over the over white-capped wraths cuts a large ledge of hardened earth. The cliffs give off the feel of danger whenever one seems them, for their black sides shows an impending doom. The lava that had flowed down its sides had painted the craggy texture a hideous charcoal and left its scar upon the surface. The edge of this piece of earth hangs out over the waters and raises up at a dizzying height. Only brave souls venture out into this murderous zone.
