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

lonan roamed that of what was labryinthian, they had been taken to the forests for some time, and steadily grows from the wretched form earlier, to a more refined health. and in the meanwhile learned of what was, such as they were not alone in these forests, there was others. elkshire, and nightwalkers, but none that she has met.

too young to venture out, the best she saw was the packmates inside and the exploration of what was the reclaimed roots. a mysterious place, covered with chicken-love and the trees that bested it all. but it so unusual, for the whispers and the wind that slipped in the corridors.. a silence, except for the occasional steps of another wolf altogether, or the otherwise avians that roamed inside. it was hollow, damp from earlier rain and brought a vibe that was something else altogether, otherworldly, lonan thought.

she was within the darkness of these corridors, an empty room where nothing shone, and she, sat in the midst of it, looking out of the door.

  • Mild Gore
 
  Jude was inside their old, rotting coliseum with her most recent sacrificed creature. It was a rat this time that she found scavenging their food, and it looked rather sickly. She must've gotten too sucked up into her work to notice that the sun have surpassed the mountaintops. It was her task to go out to explore the lands beside their coveted gorge, but Jude had gotten caught up in her own studies to even recollect that it was already noon-time. She huffed angrily, throwing the carcass of a rat to the side. Her mouth was covered in red-crimson ichor, and it tasted heavy like iron. 

  "Blasted rat," she'd lightly growl, becoming frustrated with the lack of results. Jude would pivot on her heel, kicking the carcass further, letting out a loud yowl of rather pinnacle discomfort. "Why, why, why—!" It was then that in her state of implored madness, that she noticed a dark figure looming about. Jude cleared her throat, taking a deep breath in, and out. 

  "Apologies. I didn't see you there...watching."

there was a woman.

she was not shrouded in the shadows that lonan was used to seeing among the other wolves, instead kissed by the sun and bleached with a brown tone. sparrow-like. but even as fragile and gentle the bird presents, she did not, for blood licked by her cheeks and fangs dripped, as the rat was tossed to the side. a white eye glazing over toward it, and back toward the other woman.

she apologized, to a child. and the child remained unresponsive, watching, and waiting.
