Welcome to Canis Major

a wolf and animal rpg (role-playing game)

Canis is a writing community for play-by-post (forum-based), freeform roleplay set in a fictional dream world in the intrusion fantasy genre. Most characters on Canis are wolves; many play elements are focused around wolves and canids, but the world makes room for a large variety of other animal characters such as dogs, horses, cats, bears, deer, and many, many more.

Our community is focused on flexibility, creativity, and collaboration. That boils down to a few important features:

  • There is no set activity requirement to write
  • The setting and plot are member-created and staff-supported
  • The game is continuously improved to increase fun and decrease stress

Deadman's Estuary

View
Where the river meets sea, the Deadman's Estuary branches a salt marsh home to local, aquatic life forms—particularly used for hatchlings during seasonal months. Tall, foreboding cypress trees have overtaken the majority of the marsh and offer protection for the young in their roots. During low-tide where the water has receded, small pools are left in the wake around the main river parting the Estuary. The Estuary is known to be foggy during the morning and evening, making visibility difficult, and sparking a local legend of it hosting mythological sea creatures offshore.
