Plotting with Trinket

Noel, currently a yearling will be turning two in the winter season. He is a sweetheart, but fiercely loyal to those he comes to call friend or family. Those without family or who do not fit in anywhere, he may even offer to adopt as part of his family of the heart if they are not already family by blood. Brother, Sister, Cousin, Foster/Adopted Pup, Aunt, Uncle.

Noel may be a sweetheart, but he's also a flirt which may or may not get him into trouble with others or land him in trouble. While he does believe in a one true love, he hasn't yet sown his wild oats, so to say. He is pansexual. Although its unlikely that he would proposition someone he adopts as his family of the heart, but who knows what oddities could happen there if there somehow is actual tensions of that sort?

Currently he isn't looking to join a pack, though he might have offered aid to one or two wolves during his travels in Alactria. But he's still young and therefore not quite ready to settle, although he is very curious to learn about the packs which reside in the localities in case one of them feels like he might actually fit into it.

He does try to see the good in all. For all have potential to see one way or another.


Possibly: Noel could have a group of females that like him xD. Noel I imagine when/if he sings sounds like Elton John. But anyone one-four females could be his besties, but not his mate... but they could have his babies (lawlz). Crazy groupie wants his pups OR someone could be his surrogate female if he decides to take a male as a mate.


..........................................................................................................

MASSACRE DU CHEVAL: New to Alacrtria and looking for a pack to settle that will best suit her personality. Unless somehow she is persuaded to join via a romantic interest (which currently she has none).

Caius Armada: Not yet born.

PACK CONCEPT - I don't think this would be one that Noel begins... probably something a future character of mine might be interested in starting up. Just curious what others think of it.

Naiku Shrine

Amaterasu: The leading lady of the shrine, thought to be selected by the true goddess. The leader of the Kamo Shrine is always female. To have a male leader is sacriliage. It is the Amaterasu's duty to patrol the borders, accept new members and keep her people safe. However in so doing she must maintain a mature and motherly nature, for no matter how light or dark someone may prove to be, Amaterasu loves all. The position of Amaterasu is not necessarily one of a birth right, but it is the Amaterasu's duty to choose an apprentice. All Amaterasu must be knowledgeable in the ways of healing herbs.
Haigūsha: The secondary, always chosen by the Amaterasu as her consort. He or need not be her actual mate, but if male, he is always the one with whom the Amaterasu may choose to have pups with. His or her duties are to please the Amaterasu. The Miko, Geki, Apprentices and Disciples will listen to the Amaterasu above her consort. Should the Amaterasu die or step down, so too must her consort (well he or she doesn't have to die), unless the new Amaterasu wishes him or her to be there.

Miko: The female beta position. They perform many of the same duties as the Amaterasu. They have an additional task, to perform the kagura dance at the start of the breeding season as a means believed to aid in fertility of their breeding members, during late autumn as a means believed to have food aplenty during the season of no leaves. As well as during special calender events as dictated by the Amaterasu. All Miko must be knowledgeable in the ways of healing herbs.
Geki: The male beta position. They perform the same duties as their female counterpart. All Geki must be knowledgeable in the ways of healing herbs.

Miko Apprentice: Apprentice of the Miko.
Geki Apprentice: Apprentice of the Geki.

Deshi of Naiku: The members of the Naiku Shrine and its Amaterasu. They hold no task, for it is believed that everyone must do their fair share and thus should know how to do everything and help out where they are able. As for a healer position, there is no definitive one, for all Amaterasu, Miko and Geki must be knowledgeable of healing herbs and so too should their members. As for who chooses the Miko and Geki, the current Miko and the current Geki take on an Apprentice each. However they may also choose a different apprentice if for some reason their current one is not working out, but all must be given a fair chance. There is however a hierarchy of respect within the Disiples based on how much the Amaterasu trusts them. Their position cannot be gained through violence, for violence is not part of the Naiku Shrine way. The only violence allowed is sparring in order to learn to defend oneself against the truly violent and invaders.

While the territory of the Naiku Shrine is marked, everyone is welcome, for it is a place of worship and truly neutral ground for those seeking a place to speak diplomatically with another. Those who are violent however are asked to leave and come back when they have better self-discipline.

Everyone in the Naiku Shrine takes a moment every morning and evening for meditation and/or prayer before the day begins and before the day ends.
