In the forever frozen forest lies Haldis. An Empire established by Sorina Niavalis Saxe-Salvatoré. They are built upon two ideologies: loyalty and ambition. For without either, one cannot survive. Wolves from all walks of life are welcome, so long as they are committed to building something greater than themselves. They are considered a chaotic neutral pack with strong familial bonds. Opportunities lie for those that seek it. Blood does not necessarily grant status. Respect is earned through activity and good deeds. Proven to the Lady Paramount, wolves who harbour potential are cherished. Haldis holds a twist on traditional Monarchy style Heirarchy. They are ruled by The High Court. A group of close-knit wolves that perhaps, are not tied by blood-but by the bonds of kinship.
