Fun Facts

REGARDING NAMES... The Dokuga naming tradition is for each wolf to go through at least three given names: an initial identification name, one or more childhood names (sometimes demeaning) that may or may not hint at their adult name, and a final adult name that is supposed to be closely tied to who they are as a person (personality, interests, etc) and is seen as the final step to adulthood. Adult names are generally given anywhere between 6 months to 1.5 years depending on the maturity of the youth in question -- the wolf that does the equivalent of getting a job during high school would get their name sooner than the 25 year old playing video games in the parents' basement. These are generally given by the parent of the Dokuga bloodline, though if they're unavailable, another relative might step in with a suggestion. Name changes after adulthood are very rare -- it would likely take huge trauma and/or a significant personality shift. Sometimes wolves that join the family through mateship will adopt a name that fits with this naming method, but it isn't required.

Names are never a normal proper noun/human name, but any other singular noun is usually good. If a Dokuga tells you their name, it should be very obvious how they might relate to it: Arbiter judges everyone, Devil is a monster, Victory is an excellent warrior (adopted name), Briar bites and works with plants, Warlock tends to superstition and otherworldly things, etc.
