Blood Wolf Pack

The **Blood Wolf Pack** is a large pack of vicious, savage Lycanroc who enjoy killing and terrorizing people and other Pokémon for fun. They also spar with each other and pick fights with neighbors to improve their battle skills. Due to their brutality, untamed nature, and love of frightening others, many regard them as mindless, bloodthirsty animals. For the same reason, they are also called the **Wolf Barbarians**.

## **Origin**

The pack originated in the Vast Poni Canyon after a group of Lycanroc and Rockruff who'd been abandoned by their human trainers banded together there to survive. Among these wolves was Crimson, a vicious, spiteful Midnight form Lycanroc with fur the color of blood. Bitter at being abandoned, he ingrained his own personal biases into the heads of his comrades by relating to their situations. This drove them to vow vengeance against mankind, and they began raiding human settlements after all the Rockruff in the pack had evolved into Lycanroc. To organize the pack so it would be harder to defeat, Crimson established himself as the leader. Under his leadership, the pack began to thrive and grew ever bolder in raiding both human settlements and the homes of nearby Pokémon, killing them and marking their territory borders with their victims' blood to prove their incredible strength and voracity. Thus, the ferocious, bloodthirsty pack of Lycanroc became known as the Blood Wolf Pack.

## **Territory**

### **Vast Poni Canyon**

The pack's camp consists of a large clearing surrounded by several caves, which are made accessible by paths on the rocky walls. The caves are useful during invasions since the members can hide in their shadows and watch while the intruders wander about outside, and can also use them to spring surprise attacks. The clearing itself has dry, parched ground, and a narrow path leading outward into the rest of the Canyon. There are bones and skulls of the pack's victims lying everywhere, and the walls of the clearing are marked with bloodstains to mark the pack's victories in raids and battles. One of the caves on the ground serves as a bathroom where members dig holes in the ground, relieve themselves, and then bury the excrement. Members also urinate on the walls and floor of that particular cave.

The topmost cave serves as the leader's den; there's a small stone stairway carved out by several members that leads from the ledge next to that den right up to the ground above the camp. The leader addresses the pack on the ground above their den. The second topmost cave is the nursery where the mothers protect and care for their eggs. When the eggs hatch into Rockruff pups, the mothers care for them and teach them how to survive. The pups are considered fully mature upon evolving into Lycanroc and immediately required to move out of the nursery. The newly evolved Lycanroc usually move into one of the lower caves.
