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

 He'd traversed this world, alone in a sense. Life flickered all around him, but not the same as he knew merely months ago. Long, fleeting yellow grasses and the constant shuffling of hooves — no, not anymore. This world echoed in soft calls of various birds and latent lulls of waves in the distance.

 Mink's paws felt the soft, padded earth, a mixture of moss and grass worn by travelers. This part of the trail was new to them; having traveled some of it before, following the curves, hoping that it might lead to something more — whatever that was, they didn't really know.

 Coming up on a bend, they noticed an area where the moss grew thin and led into higher grass. Their eyes flickered across it, analyzing the area, wondering if any prey lay hidden in the — his stance grew ridgid for a mere second as they landed on another individual. The soft morning light lit her tawny fur, aiding in its feathery glow. Something about her tickled a part of his brain, maybe it was the fact that she wasn't a wolf, but something more relating to him. A warm feeling of familiarity radiated through him.
