Rank Definitions -- important

Alphas:

(1) male; the alpha male is the strongest member out of the entire pack and is (most likely) the largest as well. Usually has quite a temper due to his high testosterone levels and does not tolerate disobedience. He is dominant over the pack and his word is law. Challenging him is virtually a death wish, however it is possible (losing would mean death). He has the power to accept or exile anybody. His judgement is based off of the well being of the pack and he tends to turn to violence often, which is why the alpha female is usually needed to calm his (at times) outrageous actions.

(2) female; the alpha female is the largest female out of the pack and always has some sort of specific marking that makes her stand out from the others. She is in touch with the ancestors of the pack and is usually the sensible one out of the alpha pair. Her actions are strongly based upon guidance from the spirits and (with help from the gamma) determines the best course of action for the family. She is dominant over the pack and her word is law; just like the alpha male challenging her is possible but not highly recommended. Losing will mean exile - rather than death. She has the same powers as the alpha male in terms of exiling and accepting new members.

Gamma:

(1) male _or female; Those holding this position are usually if not always the oldest and wisest of the pack. Through their stories and their phrases they pass on to the others within the pack their wisdom. They delight in telling stories to pups though sometimes what they tell is just legend, but still each story usually has some sort of moral to it. At one time they may have been the Alpha and usually that is true. However the current Alphas may put others here should it seem right to them. There is usually only one or two who fill this position and normally only one of each gender, especially if they were a prior Alpha pair. Those who hold this position are much respected and loved by the rest of the pack. They are very spiritual, and usually very close to the alphas and help guide them through times of struggle. They can speak to the ancestors, receive visions, and (sometimes) can tell the future in times of hurt. (Elders)

Beta:

(2) male & female; The beta position is immediately below the alpha in the rankings. A beta wolf is often described as being second in the chain of command, so to speak. There is a male and female beta (one for each of the alphas). When neither alpha are around they take charge as it is the responsibility that falls to them. The Beta is there in order to test the Alpha in skirmishes (when they believe the alpha is making a wrong decision) which are never truly serious and results in little to no damage of either creature. Although there may come a time when the challenge is serious. The betas may or may not be mates but otherwise have total control over their love life. Their children often become some sort of hierarchy within the pack when they come of age such as Zeta (lead warrior) or Kappa (lead hunter).

Theta:

(1) male _or female; They are the lead medics within the pack, therefore it is they that the Iota aspire to be. They are very knowledgeable in herbology and have a vast knowledge upon what plants and other natural resources will help cure and heal others. They are usually very spiritual and cannot mate.

Iota:

(1-3) male _or female; They are apprentice medics and the Theta will pass on all of his/her knowledge to each of the apprentices. When the time comes one of the Iota will be chosen as the new Theta in a test of superior knowledge. Otherwise, the Iotas assist the Theta and the rest of the pack with whatever injury may arise.

Zeta:

(1) male; The war general of the pack. They take direct orders from the Alpha in case of a war. The Alpha may be the one to declare war, but the Zeta leads the army and plan the plans for war. They also train new recruits for position as a Eta and are also in charge of choosing the next zeta to come. Normally there is only a single Zeta, but if the populace is high there may be two.

Eta:

(unlimited) male; They are the guardians or warriors of the pack. Their job is to ward off intruders and are responsible for the safety and overall well being of all the pack members. They are led by the Zeta or the alpha male during skirmishes and wars. Although they will take orders from the other higher ranks if given, but the alpha's word is always above all.

Kappa:

(1) female; The lead hunter in the pack. Normally there is only one, though sometimes there are two depending upon how large the pack is. They lead the packs hunts when the Alpha (or the Beta when substituting) tell them to. They make sure that the entire pack is well fed and will not starve. They oversee as well, that the pack will have a well balanced diet.

Lambda:

(unlimited) female; They are the hunters of the pack. They follow the Kappa or occasionally the alpha female in hunts. Those who hold this position are loyal and quick to follow orders. They have stealth and agility on their side and together are able to take down larger prey. Also, they may occasionally follow the Theta or Iotas in search of herbs if told to do so. Usually these members of the pack have the most freedom and are more laid back than others.

Upsilon:

(1-4) male _or female; The Upsilon are the scouts or sometimes spies of the pack. They patrol the border with the Eta and are very aware of their surroundings. These are usually the most useful members of the pack as they have been trained to perfect all of their physical attributes. They are sneaky, agile, and strong - which makes them the perfect assassin (if need be). Often they are sent out on special missions by the alphas themselves when they are not busy helping the Zeta with whatever need be.

Psi:

(unlimited) male _or female; These are the subordinates of the pack. Usually new members or yearling wolves start here and must prove themselves in a public naming ceremony before they are given a better ranking. However they need to be careful and achieve a higher ranking least they become the Omega.

Omega:

(unlimited) male _or female; They are the scape goats of a pack. Often they are picked on by the other wolves and are last to eat. Sometimes things may become so bad that they might even up and leave the pack, though there are those who remain to stick it out. They are the lowest rank within the pack.
