Hello this is my FIRST EVER RP post! Here goes! ;O

A beautiful grey slender she-wolf trotted on the borders of a pack territory, her feet delicately tip toed like she would shatter from beauty.
She had been looking for a pack for months on end and had smelt one nearby. She reckoned she should wait for a member to notice her outside the borders of their territory, rather than barge in uninvited. She paced the barren borders slowly letting out a long monotone howl as she slowly padded in circles. She lowered her slim neck and head, her eyes looking up towards the pack lands.p

Also, when using your table, your text should be inside

tags, like so:

Your text here

. In your post, the form was inside a

tag, but the actual post wasn't, so it got all funny-looking Smile

If you didn't know, the p stands for "paragraph" - so that's easy to remember! Smile

Welcome! Smile Gvihita is Dawali's eagle spirit guide, but your character won't be able to see her - just so you know Smile Oh, and Dawali is in his two-legged form Smile

Always on the patrol, he was, now so familiar with the paths that ran closest to the borders that he could probably follow them blind-folded. Most nights he tread them almost without purpose, recent news from the Great Tribe gnawing at him and not giving him the chance to truly enjoy the last of the autumn days, but luckily every once in a while something happened to set his mind on to other subjects. He'd heard a howl not long ago, and now he was swiftly trotting along towards the borders, Gvihita soaring overhead and guiding him. Her eyesight never failed to amaze him, and his own was not so bad, either. She had stuck with him more closely in the past moons, but he daren't ask her why, in case she took it badly and took off again. Despite her sour moods, she was company to him, and it helped when there were so precious other few that reminded him of his other home.

It took him some time before he reached the place, but when he did he strode right on to the four-legged stranger. He had his one arm raised as a signal of greeting, and spoke as soon as he was close enough for conversation to take place comfortably. With a smile on his face, his voice was deep and booming, but kind, and it was clear from his stance that while he was dominating, he was not necessarily threatening. "Evening, there. I'm Dawali, Chief of the tribe who claim the land you're looking at." It was enough introduction, for his his feathered mane did not speak for itself, his words now said the rest.

Sorry for not replying sooner, personal matters! :/

After a few minutes of restless anticipation, scratching in the autumn leaves trying to relieve some anxiety, she noticed a stranger on the red horizon, approaching at a steady pace. As he approached she lowered her slim grey body and drew back her lips and ear. Pointing her tattered muzzle towards the tall creature she started thrusting her tongue rapidly out. Her tail back between her scrawny legs, her eyes darted up and down the stranger, taking a good look at his interesting appearance. The roaring ocean of worry in her belly was making her feel terribly seasick, her mind was spinning with possibilities of a new life, a new start, a future, friends... a family, and it was hard for her to keep her body still and stay composed.
As the stranger came into talking distance she winced at his sudden unexpected hand movement and lowered her head further to the ground, the tip of her black nose tickled the dirt beneath her feet. She let him speak. She slowly lifted her head a little pointing her muzzle up towards him, her heart skipped a beat when she realised how friendly he was being, as little respect had been showed to her in the past, she appreciated it greatly.

With her trembling voice she spoke “Good evening sir, I'm Blackfoot... sir... I dispersed my family pack a year ago, I wish to join your tribe of Aniwaya, and believe I would serve well in this pack.” Feeling a fool she lowered her neck and averted her gaze to the floor, awaited a reply in silence...

You're not late at all, no need for apologies! Smile Also, I edited your first post and left a note in it for you to read - it was just about the table Smile

She acted like many of them did, and being a Chief, he was used to it. Her request came as no surprised when she voiced her purpose for coming here, and he smiled at her politely, attempting to calm her. He had seen how she flinched at his movements, and the red wolf could easily understand how uncomfortable it was when someone else was both taller and higher ranked than yourself. Frankly, this female wasn't even ranked at all, which all in all had to be quite intimidating. After all, Dawali had never not been in a pack, so he couldn't know, but he assumed it must be terrifying. "I see, well we certainly have room for a few more. Tell me, do you have any particular talents which would be useful to us? Something you can contribute to the tribe with." His voice was deep but not at all aggressive, and his face revealed his sincere interest in her answer. If she could fit with them, she would find that there was no need to fear Dawali Amara, as long as she respected him in the same manner he respected everyone else.

Thankyou Smile I understand the table now.

He seemed nice and not scary at all, she was not usually so timid but her nerves had been on the very edge since being attacked. This calmed her apprehension and she plucked up her courage and stood taller clearing her throat with a sharp 'woof'. “I am a strong hunter and I would endlessly fight to the death for my clan, I realise that makes me sound so very conceited.” When in fact she was very selfless and valued others lives more than her own. She caught his eye then quickly darted her gaze down in sincere respect. Her head thumped with the pulse of her stuttering heart, her warm breath created mist in the bitter cold evening air.

Great! Big Grin One more post for each of us now, and we're all good Smile Since our ranks have to do with the characters' assignments in the tribe, please specify which profession you would like for her to take. Read about them here

While she came across initially as somewhat nervous, the Chief was glad to see that someone in there stepped forward when she answered his question clearly. He nodded calmly, thinking to himself that such a skill-set was never wasted in AniWaya. They had not been to war since they came here, but to the Chief, the end of this peace was inevitable. Not because he wanted it to end; he worked every waking moment to ensure that his tribe and its people were safe, but they had been lucky so far, and he always anticipated that peace can only be followed by war. When the time came, they would need someone with dedication such as this female's. "So I suppose you would like the rank of warrior or hunter, then, should you be accepted among us?" While she had expressed loyalty, she might not really be seeking the rank of warrior, and if not, he would like to know what she did have in mind. Different wolves had different skills, and many had several. It was important to map the new faces before they could be a part of their family.

Okay Enagayahe Kanati, warrior sound good! Big Grin

Her strong mind swayed, a weak tree in a hurricane. She considered her options thoroughly over and over, more and more was she was drawn to the game hunting side of her choice. She loves to hunt and run and on the plus side she was strong and would love that type of responsibility of bringing food back for a hungry pack. Whereas the warrior side of things was very tempting also with the guarding borders sounded very appealing to her, she would also get to escort hunts and help out in various ways. She just decided to blurt out -without hesitation- and hope whatever she said at the time would be her hearts wishes were. “ I wish to be a warrior and I believe I would be a valuable addition to your tribe, I am not lame and feeble and I promise I could serve and protect your clan as well as getting on with fellow creatures.” Glad she had got that out in the open and made a firm decision, she exhaled deeply and gently and slowly wagged her tail. She let out a whimper and bent her neck up to see the tall individual.

Sorry for the little wait - I had a big assignment for Uni and just barely enough time to finish it. I did not mean to keep you waiting! Sad
Also, on ranks: The rank you chose was a hunter rank of the 2nd step/tier. All characters need to start at the 1st step and work their way up, so you would get the 1st step equivalent of the type of "job" you want your character to have. Here, oocly, you say you want her to be a hunter, but the dialogue states warrior, and the two are separate. Which one do you want? You can change it later, by the way. Smile

She was direct, and he appreciated that, showing it clearly with a content smile and a nod. "I welcome you, then, Blackfoot." She promoted herself well, and Dawali had let less able individuals join their ranks in the time he had been chief. This one appeared determined, and that bode well for her position in the tribe. Dawali had started out small, as well, and there was no telling where the Great Spirit decided to place you in time. Dawali's arm swung gently outwards as he shifted most of his weight onto one foot and turned sideways, almost pointing towards where he had come in one big motion. "The village, where I live, is in this direction. You can take a den wherever you want to, but most live there," he said, smiling politely. "If you want, you can join me in walking there." The walk back enabled him to get to know all the newcomers that came knocking on their door, and though it was a brief walk, it meant quite a lot to him to know that his tribesmembers knew him and his personality.

Sorry yeah I meant Warrior, I must have been tired then. And no no no! Don't worry about it, take as much time as you need, I understand it's very important. Smile

Her pupils expanded and her honey eyes shone with happiness. She had never felt so much happiness that she could remember. She made a wide wolfish grin and trotted closer to him, whimpered joyfully she groomed his leg with her pink abrasive tongue. “ I'm so grateful, thankyou, I won't fail to serve your pack well.” She looked up with a warm gaze and trotted to his side with eager devotion. Smiling she spoke “I would love to accompany you to your village sir.” She looked across to where he pointed and smiled.
