Welcome to Kongrai. The historical Island claimed as a home by wolves of all breeds for over 100 years. Founded by a Circus wolf named Dukan, and seemingly scarce of any threats other than themselves, can the wolves continue in their ancestors footsteps, and keep the four packs alive, and free from danger?

26.12.2011 - Merry Christmas! I know its a day light and everything, but still, hope everybody had a good day! We're a little slow here on the site at the moment, but thats only to be expected during this time of the year, in a couple of weeks we'll soon pick up again, but that doesn't mean members can't roleplay! Kongrai has, and still is, undergoing some changes, such as the season (now Winter). I'm also in the process of creating a new skin, but real life has been keeping me busy so not sure when it'll be ready. Also, i've noticed that people are joining, and then doing absolutely nothing. Because of this, i'm bringing the ammount of time you have to create a first character down to a week. If their are any issues with this, please PM me. - Katie x
1.12.2011 - First of December guys, that means Christmas is only 24 days away! How exciting is that! The season will change to Winter on the 22nd, which will bring the end of mating season, a new skin, a new banner, and hopefully the next part of the ongoing plot! Nothing majorly important to tell you, apart from the fact that Ruppa is still working in her Graphics studio, creating some beautiful tables for members of the forum, so be sure to pop by a take a look if you haven't already! Also, welcome to all new members. Be sure to watch out for the upcoming 'character of the moment' competition- Katie x
03.11.11 - Hallo everybody! Its November now, which means christmas is just around the corner, Eek! The site is currently undergoing some major changes, some of which you may have noticed. For example, we now have a new, snazzy logo, made by the lovely Ruppa (who has also opened up a Kongrai Graphics studio if any of you are interested in requesting soem graphics from her, please be sure to read her rules first though). I'm also working on a store, and bringing in a points system, where you can spend hard earned points on glamourous accessories for you wolves, so i'll let you all know when thats finished. We've also had a surge of new members joining, so decided to host an activity check. If you have not posted in this, then please read through this thread. Please ensure you have posted here by friday at the latest. Hope you all had a good Halloween, Katie!
Before you even think about starting to create your character(s), you should check out all of the important threads listed in here. They'll tell you everything you need and want to know about the site.
This board is to be used if you have any suggestions for the site, or questions you'd like to ask (you can either post here, or PM a member of staff). Staff will also post here if your opinion on something is wanted.
Remember back in your primary school days, where the teachers would sit the the staff room and gossip, and you weren't aloud in? Well, this is our own special version of that. Only Staff members can get in ; )
Once you've read through absolutely everything you need to read through (this means rules, plots etc) then you can either come here to create your own, unique character. Or Adopt one from the adoption board. Rules and Form can be found inside.
The sacred guardians. They live to serve the wolves, and will stop at nothing to do as their master says. You must have 20 posts in character to post for a guardian.
If a character of your has died in a fight, or you no longer wish to keep him, but don't want them up for adoption, then you may make a thread here, and I will move your Charries Bio. Unfinished Biographies will also be placed in here if left for over three weeks without progress. These can, however, be revived.
Inside you will find two sub-boards. The board for you to post if your wolf has mated, and you wish to receive stats on whether you can expect pups or not. And the board where you may place unwanted wolves up for adoption.
The Liazo are one of the most well known packs of the Island. They are a lively bunch of wolves, and most are incredibly skilled fighters, several even gaining their title as 'assasin'. They are not afraid to stand alone in war, and have a lot of confidence in their strength. The violent history between The Liazo and their rival pack, The Skyla, is widely known across Kongrai.
The Liazo pack lands dominate most of East Kongrai, with their boarders running alongside the Skyla territory. The weather throughout the whole of the East remains identical with that of the North, and tends to stay a couple of degrees cooler than the more central parts of Kongrai.
This pack generally tends to try to keep out of the small, or large disputes between Skyla and Liazo. Xyla wolves usually take on the roll of peace-keepers, pups are taught from a young age how to keep calm, not to lose themselves to rage. However, if they create an alliance, they will fight. If their lands are under attack, they will fight. Don't underestimate them. They may not be the strongest, but their kind nature has provided them with many friends, who will come to their defense when needed.
The Xyla territory lies in the center of Kongrai, their boarders running alongside both the Skyla, Liazo and the unclaimed lands. Being so far away from the coast, the central territories always remain several degrees warmer than the coastline packs
The Skyla. Well, what can you say about 'em? Their a dark, dangerous, bloodthirsty and downright evil bunch of canines who don't feel pity, or love, or even compassion. Nah, that can't all be true, can it? Well, thats certainly how the other packs see them. The Skyla are feared by many, and are quite easily the strongest, most threatening pack on the Islands. But thats not to say they don't feel fear themselves, their are certainly a few individuals out there that could cause some problems . . .
The Skyla pack lands remain to the North of the Island, also claiming half of the North-East, their boundary lines clashing with the Liazo, and also somewhat running alongside the Xyla territory. The weather stays cool most of the year round.
The pack of Exousia isn't very well known. In fact, not many wolves actually realize they exist. They keep to themselves, showing absolutely no interest in getting involved in wars, or even with other packs altogether. Overall, they are a powerful group of wolves, but this is possibly aided by the fact that so little is known about them. They remain to be seen as a threat all wolves, mostly because so little is known about them, and they certainly know how to use this to their advantage.
The Exousia claim the very South of Kongrai, residing in both the mainlands, and the small, exotic Islands that stand off shore. Their territories remain the warmest all year round, with snow being a very rare sight.
Walking through here is dangerous, very dangerous. Especialy if you are used to the protection of a pack. In the Barren lands, the wolves that you are most likely to find will be wanderers, those who do not belong to any group, or outcasts, turned away from packs. They pad through the dry dirt in twos or threes, and every now and then, also have pups with them.
The weather here is unusualy cold, the reason for the chilly temperature is unknown, but this doesn't bother the wolves. In the centre of the lands, lays a large pool of water, which is most of the time iced over, creating a very slippery surfice. It also snows alot here, no matter what the season.
Perigoso, means dangerous in Portugese. Not many have journeyed far enough to fully explore this vast range of Mountain area, leaving much to the imagination regarding what lies beyond the forest covered base. Whether it is even possible to reach the top is unknown to many, but rumours have often spread through the Opakti community that past the hazardous rocks and deadly falls, lies a safe haven of crystal clear waters and abundance of prey. Paradise, of sorts.
Under the cover of lush green vegitation, the so called "mud", although a better word would be sludge, goes down very far, and wolves have to be careful where they step. Put to much weight on it and your paw will sink into the slushy brown stuff. The stench of rotting flesh lingers in the air, attracting many unwanted visiters. Only the lightest of wolves can venture through here without getting soaked to the bone.
The name 'High Waves Beach' explains most of what can be said about the south coast of Kongrai. The moon is incredibly close to the ground here, and so this place is worshipped by every wolf around. They feel close to their gods, and often come asking for guidance, or help. However, the waters are not safe, as the current is terribly fast, only the bulkiest, strongest wolves have a hope of getting through it without harm.
Although the grass is now wildly overgrown, littered with colourful weeds, and has been adopted as home by many different species of animal, the evidence that Humans once tried to settle here have not yet dissappeared. If one was to know what they were looking for, then the signs of such a past would be inevitable to spot.
