11.3.25 King Ragnar visits Northfall in the land of the living. Happy Halloween everyone!
10.27.25 Hello everyone! It has been unfortunately nearly a year since our last update in NF and nearly a year since King Ragnar's death. Many have gone since then and the reign of Kongungr Arvid is a quiet one. Recently disappeared, Wardruna calls a pack meeting as she accends the throne. The pack page will be undergoing some well needed updates, so be on the lookout!

Royal Court: 

---

Consul (Lead Guide)  When this rank is filled, this wolf takes on the responsibility of being their Leaders personal advisor. May often help with high tension disputes in the ranks. Often this wolf is an aged, well rounded wolf and most trusted among the Leaders. May temporarily take charge as Leader if needed in the event of no Regent.  
War Lord (Lead Sentry) A well versed warrior who should have guarding, raiding, and war experience. This wolf must be combat ready. The War Lord will command his sentry as seen fit during times of war and to defend the pack on a daily basis. 
High Priest/ess (Lead Seer) One who is considered most connected to the Gods and as such, the earth. They can read the stars, said to be able to communicate with nature and understand the message of the Gods. A High Priestess may straddle the realm of the mortal and spirit world. 
Prime Caregiver (Lead Medic) The most skilled of medics, capable of vast knowledge of both healing and deadly plants. This wolf would likely take the role as a midwife or wet-nurse as needed or give direction to their medics during times of war and disease.  
Head Huntsman (Lead Hunter) A very great hunter, this wolf should be able to hunt small and large prey, as well as fish, track, and have knowledge of edible fruits and nuts. This wolf is responsible for giving command in pack hunts and making sure caches are full and in check. 
Legate (Lead Watcher): Not only a very stealthy and swift wolf, but a skilled diplomat. This wolf will be sent out when extremely important or delicate information need passed. Trusted as the word of the pack.

The peaks of Northfall are a mountain which rests along the northern coasts. Frosted by snow year round, the mountains are bitter cold in the winter and pleasantly mild in the summer. With the sea winds from the west and the tundra to the north, the land is typically never without a good breeze. In the west the mountain plummets unto rocky and dark beaches to meet the choppy and icy ocean waters. A fjord snake's its way to the southern mountains, creating the life-water which spiders through the land and creates the Sterling River. While the upper elevations are mostly snow, ice and rock, the lower reaches are dotted with various evergreens and at the foothills to the south support a lush coniferous forest. Mountain goats and sheep are common in these mountains and in the forest below, caribou herds and moose graze. 

Coming from the south you will be greeted with the lushiest parts of Northfall's evergreen forest along the foothills, dominated by pine.

Views from the western front, where mountains in some places plummet directly into sea. Where coastside is offered, beaches in some areas are made of slate rock where others offer white sands and a scattering of smooth, black stones.

Many creeks & streams flow through the rocky terrain that is Northfall, these ice waters snaking their way from the higher elevations and feeding the forestry below. On Northfall's eastern-most border this is where the visitor's dens have been dug out along knolls, root and den logs. An open fields nearby is where tournaments have been held.


These flowing waters make up some pretty little waterfalls too! 


Subterritories and landmarks are always in the making! Feel free to see images and descriptions of them all here!

"Lifestyle & Religion"

One must have strength in yourself, pride for your home and loyalty to your people. There is little room for weak wolves in Northfall. We fear not death, for immortality awaits. One must be strong- be it strong-minded or physically. Everyone is expected to pull their weight in the north.

Much if Northfall holds a viking-like and Norse general lifestyle from its founding bloodline. Wolves of Northfall have freedom of exploration and travel. It is not uncommon for members to be gone days, weeks, or even sometimes month at a time. Vikings should bring back knowledge, goods, gifts or even new members to their pack to help build & prosper. Spread the word of Northfall while your out and about!

As its founders come from a place of worship, they believe in what is called 'The Gods of Old' as well as Norse Gods. More on Stormborns specific beliefs are found here. Being adventurers and given the magic and godly influence of Mythris, they have also come to know of other religions in their travels. You are not required to believe, but should not mock one's belief either. Northfall is a highly religious pack, second only to their love of battle.

"Ranks & Trades"

Honored & Granted are unlimited positions. Royal Court may only have one wolf for each position/title, as these are the Leaders of that trade and are responsible for their lessors. Those of lower rank first report directly to their leader of the Royal Court, who then speak with the Superiors. The determining factor if more than one desires the rank at the same time is through ic activity, longevity, and/or ic challenges.

"Disputes & Challenges'

Do not (overly) harm your fellow packmate or ally. Doing so only leads to wolves who need time to heal and be waited on, making for less battle-ready individuals, thus, weakening the pack. If there is a disagreement it must be handled civilly or the issue given to the Leaders to decide. This does not include dominance fights, challenges and spats. Have at it. Royal Court challenges may be made but the Superiors have the right to veto this. Challenges against the King & Queen happen rarely, though if the majority masses rally against their Leaders, dethroning can occur. In the case of major disputes, the Superiors may ask upon their Royal Court for a vote on whats best for the pack.

"Adolescence Training"

At six months pups can (and should) begin being trained by specialists in each field of skill set. It is usual to practice each for one month so when the pup reaches to a yearling they have learned the basics of general trades to survive on their own when they disperse or to begin mastering the chosen art within the pack. This can be done icly for character development or BTS teachings. This trade training typically involves one month practicing hunting (starting with small prey hunted on your own), fighting (predominately protective defense), scouting (navigating, weather patterns), healing (quickness fixes to stop bleeding, avoid infections & dangerous plants), worship (learning of our gods) and advisory (learning of allies, providing for guests & other politics). 

"Wars & Raids"

While we may pillage, we do not rape and pillage. While free love and all that is okay, taking someone by force is not. Breakers of this rule will recieve the same treatment as punishment. During battle, if a youth submits they are often free to escape or taken as prisoner unless dire circumstances tell otherwise. Adult prisoners are less often kept then killed. Prisoners of war often can work to regain their freedom or may be given to another group in trade.
