Revenge soon followed his sister, and then Cascade, who pranced up to him as if she hadn't just expelled three big headed babies from her body. God, where did she get her energy? "Guess you'll find out," he simpered back. He was a little alarmed that she had left their children unattended, but really, what were they going to do? Squirm away? The rest trickled in; Dione and Novaro and their children, Ellis, and Daegmar and her...friend? Enemy? Frenemy? Boyfriend? As soon as everyone was gathered and settled, Valentine addressed them. "Thank you all for coming," he boomed, gaze lingering on each of the pups. "I've called you all here today for several reasons. The first is that I think it's time to introduce the newest members of our pack." Dipping his head towards Dione and Novaro's children, he introduced them one at a time by name. "This is Ganja, Necrosis and Toxin. Soon enough these three are going to be old enough to stand with you against our enemies. Whether or not they will help or hinder you in a fight is entirely up to you and the effort you put into training them." Yes, he was putting the training into the hands of the pack. The raising and coddling was for their parents to do. "Food for thought." He took a deep breath and abandoned the subject. "Second is that we'll soon be getting together with our ally Arcanum for spars, hunting and the like. It's about time we got to know who we'll be fighting alongside if the need arises." Diplomacy and all that. Building a relationship. "Be ready." And don't embarrass me when the time comes. "Third is that it's about time some of our higher fighter ranks were filled. If you're interested, step forward now." He paused to give them time to respond before continuing. "Now, it can't be as simple as me handing you a rank, can it? You want it, you're going to have to earn it." OOC: Second round is due on the 19th and then I'll announce the fight pairings. All those interested in trying out for a higher FIGHTER rank must post by then. Everyone else's post is optional, but I'd like it if the healers/healers in training stuck around. If they tend to the wounds of the injured they might earn themselves a higher rank too. |
NOTE: Valentine has a female striped skunk companion named Lefty. Unless stated otherwise assume she's present.
