Wolffolk Hegemony

Formed around two millennia ago, the creation of this faction symbolises the wolffolk turning from Konta, their creator, and beginning their quest for perfection instead. Furthermore, the capital of this faction, Blue Fang, was founded at its creation when the wolffolk chose enlightenment gorge to make their new home in.

## **Structure**

The wolffolk are split into seven 'hyper packs'. Each hyper pack is made up of hundreds of smaller packs that are family units of five to ten families. The hyper packs also have their own traditions and methods of achieving perfection, although 6/7 almost solely focus on magic. The hyper packs are governed by a council of elders, one elder per hyper pack and those are lead by the strongest elder: called a high elder. The position of high elder has been almost entirely been a dynasty system through the years and is currently being held by the Fellfang family. Each hyper pack is named for its original elder.

### **Hyper Pack Grey Heart**

Named for their founders torn nature. He, Caineghis Blackfur, was a werewolf and was constantly torn between his beastial nature and his god given nature. The Grey Hearts are currently the strongest pack in the hegemony and lead by the Fellfang family, grey heart pack members are widely respected, even by outsiders. They are known for being quite cold and logical, even for wolffolk but still show ferocious protective instincts for their pack. The route of this is said to be Blackfur's strong spirit that flows through them in times of need.

### **Hyper Pack Arctic Canis**

Named for their founders almost blue, white icy coloured fur and her cold feelings towards outsiders. The wolffolk from this pack are very focused on Blue Fang and nothing else beyond the valley. Most wolffolk in this pack don't even do their ritual passage out of their city and simply decide nothing could be better than home.

### **Hyper Pack Lightning Thunder**

Named for Hier Longfang, the wolffolk's greatest warrior at the time. He was the first wolffolk to wield the Cube of Artis in battle, hence the name. The wolffolk from this pack usually have an affinity for enchanting and artificing resulting in close relationships with the Vengeful Stars. Their current leader is Fray Longfang.

### **Hyper Pack Vengeful Star**

The odd one out of the seven and almost half the size of the others. Vengeful Star choose to practice discipline and perfection with weapons over magic. They do still use magic to a degree and often get enchantments from the Lightning Thunders, however they feel that solely using magic is a narrow minded approach and that there are many forms of perfection. It is for this reason that Vengeful Star wolffolk are the most open to outsiders. However it is also the reason their numbers have shrunk in the past hundred years.

Named for their leader Vindar Bloodmane. It is said that Vindar is the hero from the ancient wolffolk tale of 'The Slayer of the Old Times'. This is a fable that describes how Konta responded to the wolffolk forsaking her. It is said that she offered physical prowess that could rival even the kumakin, or bearfolk as they where known then. Some of the wolffolk accepted her offer and build a small village on the other side of the valley. Among their numbers was Vindars mate. Outraged by her betrayal. He broke into the wolffolk archives, stole a dozen ancient weapons and slaughtered them all but her. She pleaded him to kill her but he decided her fate should be worse, and so through the pyramid of Artis, condemned her into the void. Their current leader is Drae Silverfur.

## Blue Fang the City

### Places

#### High Elder Palace

The home of whomever is the high elder currently is. Inside is a large and fairy luxurious home but more importantly, inside is the wolffolk Artifact Archives. The archives are where the wolffolk keep the most dangerous artifacts that even they won't use or experiment with. It is also said that there is a tunnel in the place that goes straight to the top of the Peak of the Ancients.
