Pack News | Updates: Jan. 29th
Hello everyone!
Winter Festival still on the Go!:
I hope everyone is enjoying the Winter Festival and all the activities that come with it. I encourage everyone to participate in at least three activities (not only for the points) but to get you acquainted with a couple of the other characters that are running around on the site. Who knows! You might get a juicy plot out of it Also this is a prime opportunity for your characters to trade for various items as well as mingle and learn the ways of other packs. Be sure to take this opportunity before it passes you by!
Residential Updates:
As we know everyone needs a place to live, but unfortunately with all our members we have no idea where everyone is! The Pack Map will be updated later in February incorporating all the members and their families and their current locations. If you have not updated your residence, please reply with the form filled out below along with a brief description of the housing. The detailed description will be added to our illustrious website in a section all its own while a condensed version will be added to the Pack Directory. Note: If your character is neighbor to another, be sure to collaborate with your neighbor to determine how close or how far you are. For Apartment| Housing residence, be sure to add your Apt.|House number.

NPC Animals:
With the Festival underway, livestock trades are bound to happen, so let's get an accurate head count. If you have an animal (Horse, Bird, Sheep, even Turtle) be sure to reply to this thread with the form below so they can be added and noted appropriately on our Animal NPC Directory. Who knows, maybe your neighbor has the stud you're looking for and doesn't even know it XD !

Dead/ Dying Topics:
A lot of us have lost muse on some of our threads, or just don't remember not replying to them. This is a friendly reminder to get with your thread participants and either close out or have your dead/ dying threads removed. A thread sweep will occur at the end of February to clean up the older thread. So look through and see what you want to keep or get rid of. Also, if you decide to close out your threads, not only will you receive points for resurrecting a dead topic, but you will still be able to get your initial points for the thread (if you're playing the Pack Game, that is )
Festival Fun!!! :
Alright everyone, let's see what you've traded/ bought at the Festival! Don't be shy! This is the time to brag and wave your wares in everyone's faces!!!
Pack Song and Color Contest: Feb. 9th
Ichika is undergoing a little face lift and it is now in the hands of you, the members, to decide its new face! Each member is welcome to make up to 3 suggestions for a new pack song, and 2 color suggestion pairs. If you dont have a pair, you may pick one color of your choosing coupled with one of the existing pack colors. The top 5 nominations will be added to the poll and you the members get to vote!
All nominations will be tally and reviewed on Feb. 16th and an anonymous poll will follow soon after. And keep in mind, if someone has suggested a song or color that you like, feel free to piggy-back off them and show that you love it.
And don't worry, you'll get something for your troubles. Each nomination will receive +20 pts added to their pack game count and if your color or song is picked as the new pack standard...well, let's say there is something special for you
(Im thinking I'd buy a commission for them, or draw them something if they want a free work. Something pertaining to them winning the contest?"
Motivated? Alright now, Go Crazy! Reply here!

Hello everyone!
It's been a shaky couple of weeks but InH will prevail! Just a light reminder, if you haven't voted for the new pack song/color, please do so before the 23rd! Remember, the winner gets a nice surprise for their winning nomination!
Monthly Prompts:
For the month of March, InH will be taking YOUR suggestions for a pack bonding activity That's right! If you have an idea or there is a pack building exercise you'd like to see made into next month's prompt please suggest anonymously to X'yrin's account and who knows, it might be selected! And if it is everyone will know about it!
Change a'Comin:
After deliberation with you the members as well as with experienced leaders new and seasoned, the following changes will occur. But please keep in mind that your CURRENT character is by no means affected and will be able to continue their interaction within InH with no hindrance;
See? Painless. A new roster will be set up for review later this week to make everyone feel comfortable with this change. If there is an issue with its structure of your feel your character is not placed properly, it is encouraged that you address it directly so it can be changed and you are titled properly. The roster conversion will not take place until February 28th. And as I've said, your character status will not change.
Empty Members:
We know we have more than THREE Current members x.x where is everyone? Don't forget to add yourself to the Current Member listing. It's a short form that's utterly painless and you'll be recognized as a current, active member. This is encouraged if you have NPC's! Especially if you have one you'd like to get adopted.
That's all for this update! Thank you everyone for remaining strong and active during our transition. Expect updates next week regarding... well, you'll see!
Best Regards!
Updates: March 12th.

Age: 3 years

Description: A three-year-old strawberry roan filly that Pia took off the hands of a younger luperci who did not know how to handle the creature.
