The Ignis Pack

**The Ignis Pack** is one of the four outer packs of the Lucii Kingdom. The pack is led by Flare, the alpha of the pack.

## Laws

1. The Alpha’s say is to be unequivocally regarded at all times.
2. Unless given authorization by the Alpha or Beta, the Unbound are not permitted to enter any residential area that is not designated specifically for Unbound. Should one break this law, regardless of whether it is due to ignorance or neglect, they will be promptly defined as a trespasser and will be detained. In addition, any Ignis that intentionally escorts an Unbound to a non-Unbound-designated residential area will be punished as well, unless it was for emergency purposes.
3. When anyone within the Royal Family is present, they must be respected accordingly. Disrespecting a Royal is an ethical offense, and it can have severe punishments that will be determined in trial.
4. When pups reach the desired age of initiating their training, most- if not all- of the pack are mandated to participate in the training process. They do not all train the pup simultaneously, but rather in individual sessions, unless an exception is to be made.
5. An Ignis may enter the Unbound-designated residences freely, though unwarranted harm or disturbance to an Unbound will result in a trial for the aggressor.
6. No one is allowed to go within 3 miles of the Ignis/Umbra border. *(Subject to change soon)*

## Background

### The War Era

During the war, The Ignis wolves were fiercely loyal to one another, and albeit now to a slightly lesser degree, is a trait that is still apparent in the present day. The Ignis never directly invaded the territory of what would become Fulgur and Glacies, opting to take a defensive stance against those two factions; the only exception being what would become The Umbra- their present day rivals- whom the Ignis commonly directly engaged and invaded, although they were never successful. When The Founder King brought forward the goal of attaining peace, The Ignis were hesitant to submit, among concerns that The Umbra would take advantage of the situation and invade their lands. Despite their concerns, the pack preferred not to make an enemy out of the Founder King and his allies, who were far more numerous, and agreed to submit shortly after The Glacies. To ease the concerns of the Ignis, the pack was promised protection from The Umbra, thus their enemies were unable to plan an invasion due to being threatened by The Founder King. However, the Ignis were also warned to stand down, and that the aggressor pack would be exiled should any violence break out once again. Of course, as the Ignis now had protection and elemental power of their own, the majority of them saw very little reason to continue fighting. As a result, warfare ultimately ceased, though the rivalry would continue for generations to come.

### The Current Era

The Ignis enjoy the peaceful state of the Lucii Kingdom and cooperating with the other packs, other than The Umbra, for whom their hatred has not ceased due to the ongoing rivalry. In addition, small instances of violence against Unbound- those that are known to favor the Umbra- have occured. However, The Umbra Pack is not the Ignis' only concern, as they are also concerned by the perceived lack of capability from the future king.

### Tensions with Umbra

Due to their history, The Ignis and Umbra packs have hostile relations. Because The Umbra became increasingly aggressive at the border, resulting in the murder of more Ignis wolves, the Ignis Authority had to address the issue. As they did not want war to ensue, which could result in their pack being exiled, they did not retaliate with force, instead opting to create a new law that prohibits anyone from going within 3 miles of the border. Since every single Ignis that is murdered by Umbra escalates tensions, the Ignis Authority is very strict in their enforcement of this law, and the repercussions for violating this law were severe.

### The Ignis-Umbra Treaty

During the time of the Tribuisti est Lux Festival, Tushima proposed the prospect of a treaty. Although not fond of The Umbra Pack, Flare agreed to the terms, and a peace treaty was soon drafted between the packs. Despite the formal recognition, however, relations between the packs have not significantly improved at all, and the majority of both packs still resent their adversaries.

## Territory

* **Mount Azar** is a volcano located in the Infornis Mountain Range that serves as the keep of the Ray of Sundered Star, the Alpha and Beta's residencies, and the "capital" of the Ignis Territory. Both the Ray and the homes of the Alpha and Beta are under constant protection by a security detail. Both of these are located in **The Base,** a name given to the lower levels of the volcano, and in order to access them, one would have to pass through a large lava chamber. Due to the chamber’s extremely high temperature of 480°C, it is a near impossible endeavor without immunity to the heat.
* **Pyra Lake** is a northwestern lake that is consistently warm year-round, and thus has no cooling effect on the environment around it; this trait is unique to the Pyra Lake. Due to the consistently high temperature, it is a favorable habitat for many Ignis, making it a populated location for dens, especially along its eastern and southeastern sides.
* **The Surya River** is a river that, similar to every larger body of water in Ignis Territory with the exception of Pyra Lake, has a cooling effect on the surrounding areas, though its effect is far more substantial than other bodies of water within the territory. Due to its higher effect on the temperature, it is a comfortable habitat for wolves that are not immune to harm caused by heat. For this reason, The Unbound live along the Surya River, primarily the northern end (closer to the Lucis Entrance). Ignis are permitted to travel to the Surya River without consequence, but as the law states, they may not harm or intentionally disturb the Unbound.
* **The Infornis Mountains** is a mountain range—which Mount Azar is located in—that spans several miles within the Ignis Territory. Most high-authority figures and key locations are based in this mountain range, as it is extremely difficult for an enemy to invade and has strong defense capability. Despite being a mountain range, the region is actually very warm in average temperature, which is approximately 33°C.
* **The Lake of Shadows,** the largest lake in the kingdom, is divided between the Umbra and Ignis Territories, though both packs refer to the lake by the same name. Due to the aggressiveness of The Umbra, as well as it currently being prohibited by law, it is very uncommon for any Ignis apart from special operatives to venture too close to the Umbra's side of the lake. Because of the lake’s proximity to the Umbra Territory, no residences or locations of interest are established there.
