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.

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

Aries would say Duskguard was a bit more unique then any of the packs she knew of ; and for all she knew as well, the other groups around held similarities. What was the interest, was the variety of fauna that tended to the pack — to the birds that flocked, and surprisingly so, there was more then just one tiger. She knew of Kuhn, of course, a man of mischievous tendencies and still didn't completely understand why he attempted to scare her so, and yet Olive & Tiberius shown nothing but joy concerning his presence that she deemed in one one way or another 'safe,' and that just maybe.. He was a bit of a devilish one.

But she hasn't familiarized herself with the other one, and a child! That just wouldn't do, it would be wise within her medical knowledge to provide a proper check up. She was a bit worried however, whether she could probably tend to a tiger.. Doses were different, allergies were as well — it was unknown territory as Aries gathered her satchel — containing blueberries and lavender. Both but a start and neither were too awful ; if nothing was wrong, the blueberries would improve some health either way. A tasty treat with benefits!

With so, she sought out @Arcane.

^^The little tiger of Duskguard was practicing his pouncing skills… thankfully, not on the wolf children, but on… well, nothing in particular. No, instead, the wolf children were given nuzzles and snuggles, and the occasional lick on the forehead — he would need someone big boned his hunting pounces on.

As so, Genny was about doing Genny things, and Arcane was not a velcro kitten, often wandering out and exploring on his own. Today was one of those days, as Arcane was in the middle of a clearing, pouncing the snow in front of him as though there was a magical and invisible prey there, waiting for him to pounce.

A new scent caught his attention and Arcane stopped, flickering his ears, and turning his attention to Ares with the best little roar that he could give. She seemed sturdy enough to be able to take a pounce, or two… or several.

His eyes narrowed and he lowered to the ground, butt wiggling an’ all.

She came across the cub, who looked like Kuhn, and yet not. They did hold the oranges of the other, but more of browns then any. Tiny little noises and the stepping of a hunt, they were in a playful position as they looked at Aries and she chuckled lightly, "my, aren't you spirited?" she commented, settling on her hunched, and placing her hide next to her. 

They looked healthy, she didn't see any visible ailments or malnourishment. A chubby little one, surely eating days away until they can provide for themselves.. She unrolled her hide, revealing the plethora of berries, "would you like a snack?"

^^This one looked like his wolf crush but also wasn’t. She was the color of ash and snow, complete with two yellow eyes that looked like urine stains in the snow. She carried a thing, he didn’t know what it was, but you know, it sure did look tasty.

He wiggled his bum, licked his lips, and went pouncing towards her, though skidding to a halt when she spoke to him, becoming even more interested when she spoke about snacks, and had berries for him.

Curiously, he moved to sniff at the hide, if she would allow him; opening his mouth to (attempt to) chew on the corner.

"No no no," Aries said in a light tone as she used her paw to move away the skinned satchel. The tiger was attempting to nibble it, but that was not what she wanted to give them. Instead she attempted to roll the berries to them, onto the cold floor of the vale. Her paws pushed them toward the child, "these, ok?" she would say, smiling lightly in the hope to urge that these could be ate. As an example her head bent down, and tongue swathed one with a 'mmm,' sound.

Delicious.

Children were mighty difficult..

^^Her light tone caught his attention, causing the babe to look up at her with curiosity and the twitch of his nose for a moment as she moved it away from him. Instead, she offered berries to him, and Arcane blinked at her for a moment.

Slowly, almost as if he wasn’t interested, he looked at the berries. Then he looked to Aries as she gobbled one up, in front of him. Hee took a few steps back, and then pounced on them instead, creating a smear of blueberry guts all over his paws.

He looked up at her and chuffed, almost too happily, with a grin on his face.

Aries was a very inexperienced medic and midwife. She knew how to generally raise and treat children from the teachings of the elders of around ; but at the same time she never personally done much. Preparing her own scholarly knowledge and prepare for what was a wedding, she had thought her practices and teachings would come to play with her own assumed kin. There was a slight ting when she thought of that, the moment to gain a family had been lost.. But she still has a chance, if the snow-maiden could find someone. She did not want another arranged marriage, and in-fact dreamed of love.

She sighed with a smile, looking at the splattered of berries. They were quite pleased with splattering, "you do not want to eat?" she would ask. It was hard to tell whether they got general speech ; but Aries knew the more she talked, the easier they would learn. She was trying to see if their development was on-track at the very least.

^^It wasn’t that Arcane was too young to speak, or that he was mute — though perhaps selectively mute in this instance. He, too, would glance to the artwork that he had created with an amused grin, glancing back at her.

Oddly, she hadn’t been mad. His nose twitched towards her as he approached her, in an attempt to paw at her fur. He was trying to draw on her with his new-found love of painting in blueberry guts.

“Not those,” Arcane growled, though playfully, in the form of a giggle.

She moved her plushed tail, a plump amount of fur to play as so sought and carefully made it's round to the front of the child. She saw the messy paws and the way they played ; painting on her if so willed, and she did not mind much. Her fur was blend of silvers and whites, but the tail was perhaps the easiest to wash especially ; only hoping this young cub would be satisfied with the canvas. 

Aries smile to their finely-spoken words. Childish ways but spoke well, a lil shy she thought, but not shy enough to move away from her. Sadly though they did not want to eat the berries she so carefully picked and was smiling with a bit of a sigh. The closer the other came though was a good measure with golden eyes looking at them curiously, "are you having fun with everyone?" most kids would not simply respond to a doctor's questions, but if they were not having fun.. Indicated something was happening, physically or mentally.
