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

love looks pretty on you

 bundles of greys and ilk trudged forth from the unknown path. the last thing he could remember was falling asleep, following the sweet lullaby of an enchanting scent. now, his withered eyes glimmered in a whole new world. built from tranquility and beauty, the realm he seemed to escape to was a dream world. or at least something of the sort. perhaps it was his version of heaven.

 the sweet melodies of songbirds chimed around him, painting the most romantic of scenes. however, what he didn't expect was the unknown guest. or rather, sun. threaded from the finest silk of shimmering gold sat the most beautiful creature he has ever seen. she was sculpted by the gods of the earth and sun, and her eyes... they forced the man to fall completely and utterly still. never in his life had he seen such vibrant, beautiful pink eyes. they rivaled the most enchanting sunset and reminded him of the most brilliant of flowers. for the first time in a while, wick felt his heart set ablaze.

Here, in the glowing light of the radiant sun, Persephone hummed her silly little song as she watched the birds flit among the branches of the trees above. Even the squirrels gathered close, though why they were not afraid, Persephone could not say. She was happy they were here though! Squirrels were cute, as were the small, rotund avians that sang with her. This place… she felt so relaxed, as she hadn’t in so very long.

And then, it shattered.

who are you

Dappled honey whirled to face the rough and gravelled voice, kunzite eyes wide, even slightly fearful. Suddenly, the birds were quiet. The squirrels had disappeared, diving away into the underbrush in the face of this… very large predator. He was as black as the night, with eyes that shone like the edge of an assassin’s blade.

And still somehow, standing before this beast, the Greek girl felt compelled to answer.

“Persephone…” she responded, ears turned backwards as she regarded the fearsome man.

“Did you—” She cleared her throat, hoping it would help the slight waver to her voice, disappointed when it did not. “did you need something?”
