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

Rolling hills filled with flowers and colors came into the goliath’s view. Trees dappled the domain, offering a slight break to the already colorful scenery. It was nauseating to stare at, if he was honest with himself. Rows upon rows, and hills sprawling into hills of bright and shimmering flowers and berries made his eyes melt. Yet, something called him to this eyesore of a place.

Grumbling a few choice words beneath his breath, he had hoped frolicking through all of this foliage would be worth it. Surely the gods had called him this way to find new members for a group he was building, right? Otherwise, it would be a waste of his time smelling the roses, and what not.

Large paws carried the brute seamlessly amongst the grasping vines. They tugged and plucked at his darker pelt, demonizing his muted and ashen color. It was true. Compared to the land around him, Velkan stood out like a sore thumb. He was encrusted in charcoal and the blood of his enemies. Muted greys blended with dark streaks of red. His most striking features being his eyes – which were an intimidating ruby hue. Almost as if his eyes had siphoned the ruby liquid from those who dared to cross him.

Lost in his train of thought, Velkan had almost missed the pit a bit off in the distance. A hole where flowers surely should have been sprung.

A girl in the shape of a monster. Or maybe, a monster in the shape of a girl.

It did not matter. What laid before him was a slumbering body of beauty. Blue hues danced with darker sensations, only for freckles to kiss her sides and tail. She was a *vision*. Its as if the gods themselves had plucked her from the evening sky, and placed her upon a silver plater for him to enjoy. Gods. She was a serpent coiled around the root of a rose.

She would be his.

There was no question. No doubt. Nothing. Nothing would stand in his way of devouring the gift the gods has bestowed upon him. This woman would bleed for him. Yearn for him. Slaughter for him. He knew it. He would will it so.

“Look at you,” he whispered. “My monster, come to find me.”
