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

Penthesileia’s dreams were always a toss up these days. They teetered between her new life as a wolf and her old one as a young human woman. But most of all, all her dreams always had a murky haze to them. She had never been this… aware, this in control, with this much clarity before. The very idea of knowing she was asleep, of having such vivid recollections of falling asleep curled up in her cozy little nest back in the valley besides Callahan's, and yet being aware enough to recognize the dream for what it was –- that was a bizarre notion indeed.

She rose to her paws, feeling the tall grass tickle the low hang of her belly as she surveyed the scenery before her. It was a familiar sight, a stunning landscape very similar to the valley she now called home, but it felt like looking through rose tinted glasses. It was all very romantic in coloring and that in itself was an interesting thing to note. She looked around, ears twitching in curiosity as she put her nose up close to a pretty little flower. She took a deep breath, her nose twitching as she inhaled the sweet fragrance of the blossoms, before a tickle of pollen caused her nose to crinkle. She let out a barely controlled sneeze as she recoiled away from the flower. She blinked, backing away from the flower as she felt another oncoming sneeze take hold of her. Achoo! she let out, paw raising to rub at her nose while her sides heaved from the sudden influx of sniffles, soft green eyes starting to water. “Goodness, Bunny, this is why we don’t sniff the pretty flowers.” She spoke to herself, completely and utterly unaware of the show she was putting on for a certain someone.
