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

Frosted gold eyes had been more focused on the sky than the scenery of the cove. Restlessness had urged him to explore a bit more if this place he had been plopped in, the sight of birds circling in the distance had given him a destination.

Spidery limbs carried him in the birds' direction. He moved with little consideration of stealth for there was no need to stalk. Either something dead, dying, or as good as was waiting him beneath the ominous avian cloud.

Soil became sandy underfoot. His jowls wettened in anticipation of what he may find. He wondered if it was something big, like a beached shark or tuna. God, he would bite faces for tuna. It wasn't always just birds loitering around carcasses.

A startled voice had him abruptly stop in his tracks. Sand sputtered out in front of his skidding paws.

“Huh?”
