Before you choose to have a character join a pack, you would want to learn about that pack, right? Just because a pack looks cool doesn't mean it may suit your character, but yet again, it's sometimes cool to have a character join a pack that 0% fits their personality! Get to learn about the current packs of Springtown here!
THE REAPERS
General Description
Are you afraid of gangs, afraid of creepy people? Do your parents tell you to stay nearby so you don't get kidnapped? In, I guess you could say, the dog world, the Reapers are the exact reason why young dogs never leave their parents, alone. The Reapers are merciless and brutal, and they'll snatch you if they can. Whenever you smell blood on a dog and it looks aggressive, and smells of other dogs, it's gonna be a Reaper. Be wary, run whenever you see or smell one. They are cunning and ingenious, and can manipulate you. Look out, and just know that you aren't safe if you are not accompanied and you end up coming across a Reaper.
Pack Personality
The Reapers are mainly very brutal, merciless, apathetic, and hostile dogs. They're also pretty bloodthirsty and manipulative, and cunning. They aren't very "family-like", and are basically aggressive and rude. You literally see them snapping at each other, fighting over scraps, or attacking dogs. They're like a gang, a cruel gang. Family isn't a word at all in their opinion. To them, families don't exist. They don't follow the special Pack Law, none of that. The Reapers are completely reckless and fearfull dogs.
History
The Reapers were founded a few years ago, making them the oldest pack in Springtown. They were founded by a Siberian Husky who went by the name of Julius, who was actually a friendly dog, who wanted to make his own pack. Julius followed the Pack Law and enforced it onto his packmates well. The only problem was that Julius' Underboss, Apollo, was aggressive and was fed up with his Alpha's undying loyalty to the Pack Law and the dog spirits in the afterlife. Apollo began to brainwash his packmates into believing Julius was lying to them and the Reapers believed their Underboss. Julius was then attacked and killed by his packmates, Apollo taking over as Alpha. This was when the Reapers began to become a very brutal and aggressive pack.
Eventually, a husky mix called Grim, who was 6 months of age, was made a Trainee, and Apollo forced the young, ambitious dog to be his apprentice. Grim had been hostile and rude from day one, and therefore he was able to handle the training well. Eventually when Grim was only 2 years old, he was made the Underboss of the Reapers. When Apollo wanted Grim to kill him in order for the husky mutt to become the new Alpha, Grim did so and became the new Alpha. Now, the 6-year-old dog is the current Alpha of the Reapers.
Special Traits
Any dogs in the Reapers are known to exhibit quite some strength, mental and physical. This is probably why Reapers are emotionless, brutal, and tough. In fact, some dogs came from the fighting ring that no longer exists anymore. Because of this strength, many dogs, depending on their breed, can be easily pinned and/or taken down by a Reaper. However, this makes some Reapers slow, a disadvantage to them but an advantage to any escapees.
THE DELTAS
General Description
The Deltas are Springtown's local sleuths and speedos. They're one of the most cunning packs in Springtown besides the Reapers, and they are the fastest pack in town. Most dogs from the Deltas are former racing dogs or they are fast breeds or mixes with fast breeds, like a Greyhound. The Deltas are pretty helpful dogs, but they'll only help you if you lend them something in return! The Deltas are very social, and whenever you see one, move out of their way or get run over!
Pack Personality
The Deltas have the kind of personality that make others interested and comfortable around them. The Deltas are very cunning and ingenious, but also very helpful and brave. However, the only way these speedy dogs will lend you a helping paw is if you give them something in return, from prey to special items like dog toys, etc. The Deltas are very manipulative towards their enemies, and they will trick their enemies into believing some things the Deltas say. They are also quite charming dogs, but don't think they'll be charming all the time!
History
The Deltas were formed by a former racing dog, a Greyhound who went by the name of Rocket. Every day, Rocket was racing, competing against other fast dogs. Eventually the racing track was taken down and turned into a Snatcher camp. Upset that he had nothing to do anymore, young Rocket, only 2 years old, began gathering up former racing dogs and slowly but surely, Rocket was forming a pack before he knew it. Rocket became this pack's Alpha and named it the Deltas. Being the Deltas are a "new" pack, the former Underboss, the first Underboss of the Deltas is the current Alpha, Danger. When Rocket went missing, Danger became the new Alpha.
Special Traits
The Deltas are known for their very stunning speed and stealth and ingeniousness. Because of this, Deltas can get what they want...sometimes, and can also help others if they need to trick someone. Deltas are definitely the dogs to call for that!
THE MISSILES
General Description
The Missiles are one of those very high-and-mighty dogs who believe they own the place. The tough guys of Springtown, the Missiles live the closest to the Barrier and make sure no Collared escapes from the Barrier. These dogs are literally patrolling Springtown day and night, and they make some dogs suspicious. The Missiles may not be the "hitdogs" or pets of the Snatchers, but the Missiles are definitely not to be messed with, or get your skulls crushed into mush.
Pack Personality
The Missiles are definitely not the friendliest pack around. Think of them as those high school bullies, the Missiles are the perfect representation of them. This tough pack acts like they own the place. They don't care if they hurt anyone while they're at it. The Missiles are pretty pushy, and strict on rules. Their bark is way worse than their bite, and they do anything to get what they want. Their silver-coated teeth prove their toughness.
History
The Missiles were formed in an abandoned underground place close to the Barrier in 2016. While in their early forming stages, the Missiles were used by the Snatchers to make sure no Collared dogs escaped from the Barrier. A Dobermann named Roger was the commander of the dogs tasked with guarding the Barrier despite the fact that the Collared dogs couldn't really see it, and only the Snatchers could. Whenever the Missiles noticed a Collared dog slip by, the Missiles would use their secretly silver-coated teeth to attack the Collared dogs and knock them unconscious before bringing them back inside the Barrier. Roger eventually grew tired of his human treatment and launched an attack on the Snatchers, killing at least 10 of them. The Missiles decided to guard the Barrier without any human assistance, and became a pack. Now, the Missiles are still led by Roger and these dogs still live in that underground location.
Special Traits
The most striking trait of the Missiles is how they have teeth that are literally covered in some kind of silver material. There's rumors that the silver have some toxin on them that causes the dogs they attack to be knocked out the way they are, which seems surreal. These teeth can puncture flesh very well, but mainly on animals the best.
THE FISHERS
General Description
Your local "fishermen", the Fishers are the best fishing dogs around. They love to fish and hang out at the beach, and basically do their own thing! These dogs are super friendly and are always willing to lend a helping paw. Heck, they may even lend you a packmate if you need some more dogs in your pack! The Fishers also love trading, and they aren't afraid to make certain decisions, at all. The Fishers, in short, are friendly, brave, and skilled dogs.
Pack Personality
The Fishers are known to be the friendliest dogs around. They're also brave, and aren't afraid to stand up for their own. These dogs, once they are allies with you, will always stand by your side. These beach-dwellers are also willing to dislike an enemy if they need to, and yes, these dogs do have enemies and rivalries, with all of the aggressive packs. The Fishers are very happy and cheerful dogs as well, and naive, but not always naive. Most of their members are naive, though.
History
The Fishers are basically the newest pack besides the Missiles. The Fishers were founded by a dog named Oceania, the first female Alpha, 9 months ago, on a place called Cliffside Beach. Young Oceania, only 1 year of age, decided to start her own group of dogs, a pack, after her family in Ellwood Park were killed by Missiles after they had been found. Oceania's family were Collared dogs who had escaped from the Barrier. Oceania decided to live in Cliffside Beach and attracted lots of human attention, and she liked it. Eventually Oceania located some dogs living in Cliffside Beach, and convinced them to join her pack. Being she was living in a beach, Oceania wanted to teach her packmates how to fish, and this gave them the skill of fishing. As time passed, Oceania named this newly-founded pack the Fishers.
Special Traits
The Fishers are known to be the only pack in Springtown that's super friendly and basically waterborne. They're also good at trading things with other dogs, and they're mainly known for being able to live around beaches and water, and for being able to actually fish for food.
