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

Hawkes had a knack for finding strange forests, it seemed, but this one was far more unsettling than the last. He was far from a believer in the supernatural, but there was something about this red forest that had his fur standing on end. Leaves shouldn’t be this vibrant in the winter, and especially not when the sky was overcast and gray.

He was almost regretting setting foot in the damn place to begin with. It was too bright, too quiet, and yet, Hawkes felt like he wasn’t quite alone in this place.

A rustling of leaves to his left had him spinning around, yellow eyes narrowed into chips. “Who’s there?” he asked, trying to keep his fur from bristling and his voice level. Because he wasn’t scared! Of course not. He was just… being cautious.
