" Eleos Personification of pity, mercy, clemency and compassion"
Eleos is considered a place for all, where the pack are considered the leaders of their own lives. Based off of the belief in freedom and equality, Eleos is a democracy for the most part, where there are Alphas to keep an order and stability. Alpha's (Chief) are more commonly elected by the people of Eleos, though it is rare that these elections are put forward. Eleos plays no favourites when it comes to allies or enemies, they're considered friends to all, where possible. It is not uncommon for the ways of Eleos to resemble things that can be considered "good" or "bad", though they tend to sway the ways to fit their own beliefs. Eleos heavily values their members being well fed, cared for, and healthy, where members are not defined by their genders and are therefore not exempt from any rank. A noticeable trait of the Eleos ways and traditions are their openness and their dedication to their bodies and how they express themselves. The wolves of Eleos are a community, who look out for each other and all else.
please note: - Eleos in general have a belief that their sexuality is to be expressed. Sexuality in eleos is defined by bioloigical, erotic, physical, emotional, social or spiritual feelings.
- Elected Alphas are bound to the original structure of the pack and are unable to change it to fit their own whims
H I S T O R Y
No two wolves are the same, though they may have similar traits this does not define them as the same. This is seen heavily in three wolves that begin the legacy of Eleos. Freya, born pale of fur and dual-coloured eyes, Killian, born with a fierce soul, and Ista, born with her mind in the sky. Their pasts though similar, are not one. Freya and Killian found themselves born to the same Pack, though at different standings. Freya was the first-born daughter to Frigg, the lone Alpha to the Pack that was meant for warriors. Killian was not of that litter, or any litter born from Frigg. He was born from a different female in the Pack, and he fit the bill that was required of pups of the Pack. From birth, the pups are taught the importance of defense and offensive fighting. They were expected to lead the future into battle, but it was not to last. The Pack had been steadily decreasing in numbers despite all the births that happened over the course of the years that they ruled. When Freya turned 2, Frigg died of a wound that had grown infected and no healer was in place to save her. Frigg was a wolf of principle, but it did not mean everyone else was. Though she has passed the mantle to Freya to take lead in her death, her other children did not approve and took no notice of their mother and leaders choice. Aggression and dominance began to be displayed as sibling went against sibling to take the position at head of a dying Pack.
Freya, though artfully skilled in the way of battle, could not go against her siblings in a fight to the death. She saw no good of it, no need, it was useless killing for a Pack that would not be around much longer. Freya was a bold girl, playful and tempting, despite the Warrior that waged in her heart, she could not condone this. She would be killed first, her siblings going against her to ensure the true heir did not remain alive. It was Killian that smuggled Freya out of the war-zone that had once been their home. They explored Anikira until they stumbled upon a place called Kal'Dyne, covered in Jungle with the sea so near, and the duo found themselves in love with the place. Freya did not quite want to leave there, and Killian didn't want to make her - for he too liked the place that they had found. One night Killian had woken and decided to go for a hunt, and as he came closer to the lagoon, he spotted a wolf in the middle of the water, though she didn't seem to be all there as the water was slowly pulling her away from the land. In typical Killian nature, he surged towards the water, calling out for the wolf to regain focus and move.

It was his voice that woke Freya, and she ventured to see where her friend had gotten to - and to ensure that he was okay. Like Killian, Freya went into the water, and together they worked on pulling her to shore. Though it seemed that they need not, because the little black wolf had a guardian angel watching over her. A lion had found himself in the water and begun pulling at the wolf to the shore. Once all were out of the water, there was a slight scuffle with words, but in the end, Freya and Killian found themselves with two new additions. It was not shortly after that Freya announced her desires to make this place their home, and to form a Pack that was full of freedoms.

THE // ALLIANCE
THE // ORDER
Master Feral - This is a Feral that has chosen their skills and abilities when it comes to hunting, their strategies and kill to miss ratio second to none. Like the High Healer, the Master Feral can put themselves forward for this title, or be nominated by the Chosens. The Master Feral must make sure that Clan hunts are organised and conducted, especially if there is a Harvest close in the future.

This wolf has call over the Braves and Novices.
THE // CITIZENS
Novice - A Novice is a wolf of Eleos that has reached their first year, and are now dabbling in the jobs in Eleos to find where they excel.

The Novice's become a fully fledged Citizen once they have been granted the rank upon completion of training. They have more sway than the Lodgers, but less than the fully fledged Citizens.
THE // MEMBERS
Chief - This is the wolf that 'leads' the Clan. They are considered the "top" Chosen and has been elected to be the Chief by the Chosen and the citizens of Eleos. Though they rely heavily on their council of the Chosen, the Chief has the ability to cast the final decision, even if it is not the one favoured in the Council. The Chief is expected to be the face and voice of official meetings, and are favoured within the Clan. The Chief must ensure that all of Eleos are doing their part, and to ensure that Eleos is staying true to it's core.
Chosen -A Chosen wolf is a wolf of Eleos that have been paw picked by the Chief. A Chosen is considered the wise council of Eleos, where honor and trust preside. A Chosen has proven themselves to be intelligent and trust-worthy when it comes to the more Political side to the Clan. In the event that the Chief is unable to break a vote tie, or conduct their Chief duties, the Chosen must rally together and act in the Chief's place. The Chosens are wolves that vary in what they represent, but they all have one goal in particular to achieve: maintaing Eleos and keeping the peace within the Clan. These wolves can be picked from any High or Master ranked wolves, and are called to council when the Chief sees fit.
THE // ORDER
High Healer - This wolf is considered the lead Healer of Eleos, they achieved this by either putting themselves forward for it, or being nominated by the Chosens for their skill, knowledge, heart and dedication. Their knowledge of medicines and herbs are unbested, and they are required to continue teach the Healers all that they know. It is not uncommon for this wolf to be intune with the spiritual side more so than most, the natural remedies of the mind can be dabbled in and taught. The High Healer is expected to ensure that their Healers are encouraging regular check ups from the members of Eleos, so that their bodies are respected. They are in charge of ensuring that the Courtesan's are healthy and nothing is wrong. Should a High Healer notice anything of worry about the Courtesan, they are expected to investigate and ensure the Courtesan is okay.
High Minister - A High Minister is a Minister of Eleos who have shown that their skills of diplomacy and reason are unmet by anyone else. The High Minister are considered teachers to the Ministers. Like their brothers and sisters of Master Feral and High Healer, the High Minister can put themselves forward for the task, or they are nominated by the Chosen. The High Minister is tasked with reporting to the Chief and the Chosen about any misdoings, news, information or changes in and outside of the Clan that they or their Ministers have found out. The High Minister is trusted with secrets and plans by the Chief, and are the go-to for advice on how to conduct ones self. The High Minister can be required to do tasks for the Chief that require a tight lip.

The Master Brave is also required to be present if there are tournaments or friendly spars (not playfighting) are to take place, to ensure that it does not get out of hand. This wolf has call over the Braves and Novices.
Savages - Though not a Council position, this is not a rank of Eleos that comes lightly. Perhaps one of Eleos' only more noticeable "dangerous" trait (other than their Braves), a Savage is a wolf that is exactly like it's name suggests. They are wild and only answer to the Chief and the Council. The Savages are, in the event of a death punishment, the ones to conduct the punishment. Savages are wolves that are not opposed to taking another wolf's life, and not having it rip parts of them away, making them unfit to live. These Wolves have a strong-sense of mind, or are numb to death. The Savages can, however, be requested to do other things by the Chief or the Council. As it is not a Rank that is constantly in use, the Savages are expected to try and help out in other parts of Eleos.
THE // CITIZENS
Healer - These wolves find themselves more skilled in the way of healing than most else. Their knowledge of herbs and healing techniques are bested only by the High Healer. Typically a Healer will be there to aid a wounded wolf, Eleos or otherwise. From battle to accident, to birthing to illness, a Healer is trusted to be there. Should a disease or infection begin to fester and start to threaten the lives of Eleos, it is the Healers job to limit and remedy this. Like the High Healer, Healer's are expected to ensure that the wolves of Eleos are treating their bodies with the respect that it deserves, often encouraging them to have a check up every now and then.
Minister - A Minister is a wolf of Eleos who are quite skilled in the art of speech and diplomacy. They value their ability to remain calm and collected when times require it. Ministers are often required to venture outside of Eleos to scout and report, often spreading the name of Eleos and what they represent. News and tales are often brought back with a Minister. Minsters can be used as messengers between Packs. Though they are also required to be the voice of reason should a common spat break out between wolves of Eleos. They are to report to the Braves if the spat gets out of hand.
Feral - A Feral is a wolf who specifies in providing food for the Clan. A master hunter of prey, they make sure that they participate in the Clan hunts when it's required of them. It is common for these wolves to hunt together or alone, though during the harder seasons for prey these wolves will create a cache for their hunts. These wolves are in charge of feeding and maintaining the Packs bellies, and are considered to be a basic fighter when and if it comes to the Pack needing a line of defense.
Brave - A Brave wolf is a wolf who has a knack for the more physical side to life, who would put their lives on the line to save others and Eleos. They are the Warriors of Eleos, they are the first line of defense if the unfortunate event of an attack arises. The Braves of Eleos are also the defenders of the Clan, they patrol the lands and ensure that all is well within them. They hold a certain candle to the defense of others, when pup season rolls around the Braves are evenly spread between ensuring the safety of new mothers and their pups, and keeping borders up to date within Eleos. They are required to break up any spat the the Ministers cannot talk down. Braves can kill in the name of defense.
Spirit - A Spirit is typically a Citizen wolf who has chosen to make themselves most used for the art of enthusiasm, entertainment and energy. These wolves are the main laughter of Eleos, dedicated to making others happy and smiling. The Spirits are to boost the morale of the pack when and where they can, and to do their best to ensure positivity remains constant. These wolves can be considered to be an "omega" type of wolf as they do not typically seek much power outside of enabling a smile on someones face. If the Spirit wants to make their arts more into the physical sort, the Spirit is encouraged to further provide the wolves of the Clan with physical boosting, meaning if a Spirit wishes to give their bodies on the regular to help others (and themselves), then it is highly encouraged.
Courtesan - Though in Eleos sexuality is very open and encouraged, it is not forced upon you to believe in so. So not every wolf in Eleos may favour the art of the sexual act, and chooses to keep themselves kept and to one wolf. A Courtesan is the opposite. If a wolf of Eleos chooses to be Courtesan, they are freely and willingly giving their bodies to anyone of Eleos that wishes it. They are, however, not to be mistreated or abused (unless the Courtesan gives their consent) and if anyone is caught doing anything against the Courtesan's wishes, i.e forcing themselves upon them, then they are to be brought to the Council and the Citizen's where their future is decided. A Courtesan wishes to make others happy and bring a constant place of release for wolves of Eleos, and are usually not all that interested in maintaining one relationship. These wolves are quite known for their desire to bring others release.
Brave - A Brave wolf is a wolf who has a knack for the more physical side to life, who would put their lives on the line to save others and Eleos. They are the Warriors of Eleos, they are the first line of defense if the unfortunate event of an attack arises. The Braves of Eleos are also the defenders of the Clan, they patrol the lands and ensure that all is well within them. They hold a certain candle to the defense of others, when pup season rolls around the Braves are evenly spread between ensuring the safety of new mothers and their pups, and keeping borders up to date within Eleos. They are required to break up any spat the the Ministers cannot talk down. Braves can kill in the name of defense.

If the Spirit wants to make their arts more into the physical sort, the Spirit is encouraged to further provide the wolves of the Clan with physical boosting, meaning if a Spirit wishes to give their bodies on the regular to help others (and themselves), then it is highly encouraged.
Courtesan - Though in Eleos sexuality is very open and encouraged, it is not forced upon you to believe in so. So not every wolf in Eleos may favour the art of the sexual act, and chooses to keep themselves kept and to one wolf. A Courtesan is the opposite. If a wolf of Eleos chooses to be Courtesan, they are freely and willingly giving their bodies to anyone of Eleos that wishes it.

A Courtesan wishes to make others happy and bring a constant place of release for wolves of Eleos, and are usually not all that interested in maintaining one relationship. These wolves are quite known for their desire to bring others release.
Partisan - A Partisan is a wolf who dedicates themselves to serving the whims of others. These creatures are either traded from one pack to another, joins with the desire to serve, or born in Eleos and grows to become a Partisan. Heavily inspired by the Roman Family slaves, the Partisan's can choose to serve a "family" i.e wolves and their pups, one wolf in particular, or makes themselves accessible to all of Eleos. Partisan's are kept healthy and happy, Partisan's are usually willing participants. Make no mistake, however, if someone is found abusing a Partisan, their future lays within the vote. Eleos does not shy away from the idea of trading their Partisan's with other Packs, however they will only trade an Eleos Partisan if they are certain they will be looked after. It is not the job of a Partisan for their body to be used, but their talents lay in serving in other ways. They are not a Courtesan, unless they give consent to being used.
THE // NEST
Novice - A Novice is a wolf of Eleos that has reached their first year, and are now dabbling in the jobs in Eleos to find where they excel. A Novice is able to train under any of the Citizen's, Masters or High's. Once they have decided where is best for them, a Novice is then welcome to keep learning and bettering themselves. The Novice's become a fully fledged Citizen once they have been granted the rank upon completion of training. They have more sway than the Lodgers, but less than the fully fledged Citizens.
Juvenile- These are the pups under 1 year of age of the Clan. They are brought up under Eleos' beliefs and are often taken care of by all of Eleos, instead of simply their parents. Juvenile's of Eleos are considered to be everyones responsibility, though it is their parents and the Chief that are able to ultimately make decisions for them until they are able to do so themselves. Juvenile's are thought of as special and to be cherished. They are new life and the future. Like the Novice, they have more sway than the Lodgers, but less than the fully fledged Citizens.
THE // MEMBERS
Wicked - A Wicked is a wolf who has been found guilty of a crime, that isn't punishable by death. A Wicked loses all their voting rights and rights as a Citizen, and are classed as the lowest rank of the Clan. They have lost all their rights as a Citizen, and can no longer participate in votes or sexual activities. Though it is possible to earn trust back and remove themselves from being a Wicked, it requires a lot of time and a lot of trust. A Wicked must remember, though, that if they are to repeat their crime or comitt another one in general, they are forfeiting everything. They will never be able to be anything more than a Wicked, or if Eleos chooses, they will be traded to another Pack to be done with whatever the Pack desires.
Lodger - These wolves are considered members of Eleos, and not Citizens. A Lodger wolf is a wolf that has joined Eleos, but has yet to be brought forward to the Chief to take their oath and pledge themselves to Eleos. A Lodger does not have the ability to vote or call a vote to stand. A Lodger can be asked and made to leave Eleos if they do not try to become a Citizen. They are technically unranked and hold no power whatsoever in Eleos until they become a Citizen. Lodgers are "new".
