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

Wandering away from Event Horizon's borders, Valentine chose to take a bit of time to explore the North. A little further away than usual - but everyone else was going out on their own adventure, so why not him as well?

The further North he went, the colder it got. The sweet heat of summer quickly faded as the days dragged on with the snowy peaks overlooking his path just up ahead. This is the path he was taking before settling in with Crux's gang - so why not see where it would have taken him if he had not joined Event Horizon?

There were even a few strawberries he was planning on bringing back to Mordecai as he remembered it was his favourite treat. 

But such a gift would never reach its recipient. 

Off into the mountains to see what it would bring, 'just a little peek' before heading down south again to the red-leafed woods. Valentine would never leave. Blood soaked snow stained the ground as a peaceful silence remained in the mountains, leaving nothing behind other than the smeared trail - vanishing off in the distance with droplets as if carried off to the peaks where he would remain for all of time.

But this end, was only the beginning of something new.
End of Valentine

As the quiet of the day dragged on so did Ragnar. The majority of his exploration at the foothills of his new home. Still, despite the summer, snow still clung onto the cracks and crevices of the cool earth. Still patched under the shade of the many, many tall evergreens which surrounded this half of the mountain chain.

The golden wolf strays beyond, out unto the tree lines where his boarders would be placed, where the beginnings of his sanctuary began. A trail of blood here in found, into another part of the forest Ragnar had not yet ventured today.

Ears perked high, nose going to work and he follows the trail outward from which it began. What happened here, Ragnar did not know. Blood stained the land outside his home and into his forest. Much so of blood he did not believe the creature to have survived...

A blood sacrifice to the Gods had been made this day. Ragnar could only hope it may quench their thirst and though it meant another's life ended, a good sign of Northfall to come.
