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

Stokebron Gulch

View
A series of walls and flat stone tiers that carve deep into the earth. Once cut by a grand river, the gulch runs dry, accompanied by howling winds that whistle during heavy storms. The rock is especially barren, accented by what little greenery manages to grow through the cracks. Trees are short, often felled by the wind or their own weight as they run out of room for roots to spread with new growth. Varrious creatures, notably goats, snakes, or bears, are occasionally spotted, though most keep to the paths along the cliff walls as storms have brought flash flooding or rock fall. It would be wise to follow their example and pass through quickly.
