Pack Ranks
— Rex - The ultimate authority of Incendium. Has the final say in all matters concerning the pack. His word is law, and none shall disobey. | |
— Regnatrix - The secondary ruler of Incendium. Only someone deemed worthy may challenge for this rank. Basically considered the best (and sometimes ruthless) female in the pack. A hardened warrior, strong of will & character, and an all around force to be reckoned with. Her authority is a step below the Rex's command, however, she has just about all the freedom and power of the Rex as long as it doesn't surpass or go against his word. She may accept/deny members, force claim rogues & other pack/band wolves, take slaves, make rogue & pack trades, & promote and demote members. She cannot, however, free slaves, start wars, start alliances without the Rex's consent, nor go against, change, or void the Rex's decisions. She is expected to defend her position should someone else feel they'd like to challenge for it. Does not have to be the Rex's mate to challenge for this position. | |
— Princeps - Heir to the pack. Takes over if something happens to the Rex. The Rex's most capable offspring. A position that may be challenged for among them, though the position is not for the weak of heart. The Rex may deny a child the right to take the rank if he deems them weak-willed. They have the authority to force claim others. | |
— Praefectus - Primary beta rank and one of the advisors to the Rex. Essentially one of the highest ranking warriors in the pack. This wolf excels in the fighting arts and commands the troops alongside the Praefactor. This wolf ought to be well versed in war tactics and works closely with the other tier 1 and tier 2 ranks. They have the authority to force claim others, as well as promote & demote members as they see fit (provided the members they are promoting/demoting deserve their new ranking). They have the authority to test potential new members as well. They may assign mentors and apprentices, and they oversee and conduct training for the apprentices and the packs fighting forces. | |
— Praefactor (1) - Secondary beta rank and one of the advisors to the Rex. Essentially one of the best warriors and/or tacticians the pack has to offer. This wolf excels in his/her field and works closely with the other tier 1 and tier 2 ranks. They have the same duties and permissions as the Praefectus. A wolf well versed in tactical affairs and high intellectual capabilities is preferred for this rank. | |
— Legatus (1) - Enforcer of Incendium's laws. They ensure the rules are being followed and have permission to issue punishment (up to minor maims) if the laws are broken. They oversee any slaves and captives the pack acquires and may force claim trespassers and potential hostages/captives during raids and sieges. Legatus are also in charge of those in the spy ranks, and may send them out on missions as they see fit, but they must inform the Rex when they do so. | |
— Dux - Lead warriors. May call the lower ranked warriors and other members together for training. | |
— Aedifex - Lead blacksmith. Masters of their craft in all things. From jewelry, to weapons, to personal and pack defenses, and anything that has to do with crafting (regardless of what skill it's for), the Aedifex is the one to ask. May call others for crafting lessons of any kind. | |
— Medico - Lead healers. May call lower ranked healers and other members together for training. | |
— Venator - Lead hunters. May call the lower ranked hunters and other members together for training. | |
— Praedator - Plunderers. Pillagers. Prowlers. Marauders. Incendium spies, trackers, and raiding forces. Are more often than not, ruthless individuals who don't mind taking what isn't theirs. When not raiding, they are often sent out to spy or track down certain individuals. Those who succeed are rewarded. May be added as a dual rank. | |
— Bellator - Common soldiers. Are expected to attend all fight training, as well as other mandatory gatherings. | |
— Medicus - Common healers. Expected to attend all healer training, as well as other mandatory gatherings. | |
— Pressor - Common hunters & trackers. Expected to attend all hunts, as well as other mandatory gatherings. | |
— Inquisitor - Common spy rank. Must attend mandatory gatherings, as well as training with the Pressors & Bellators. | |
— Communis - Common citizens, have yet to choose a class. | |
— Discipulus Apprentice ranks for wolves up to 1yr old. | |
— Creatus - Pups younger than a 6 months. | |
— Servus Wolves who have been force claimed into servitude. Must still have some access to basic necessities such as food and water, but otherwise are subject to the packs every whim. May also be traded/sold off to the highest bidders. | |
— Captivus - Wolves force claimed and held as hostages. They are not to be harmed. Must still be given some access to basic necessities such as food and water. | |
— Deserter - Pack members who have deserted the pack without notice. Will be hunted down. | |
— Missing/Inactive - Members who are still considered part of the pack but have gone missing/are inactive. Attempted recovery upon returning to activity. | |
— Exiled - Former members who have been permanently banned from the pack. Are to be attacked on sight if trespassing on pack lands, and if they choose to return for any reason, may be force claimed and put into the slave rank. |
