Initial Post:


Soribus had been wandering for who-knows-how-long, pussyfooting around most of the established packs and merely getting a feel for the land. It was cold, yes, but at least with the summer the air was warming up. Not that it much mattered, he was built for weather like this. He traveled as a canine, on all fours, moving through the trees without any real direction, but at least he seemed to know where he was going. However, at the scent of another pack he paused, rather than passing it up as he did the others. This one was... fresher, in a way, more inviting somehow. He sniffed at the massive tree at the border and closed his eyes for a moment, large ears pricking forward just slightly and... yes. He had grown a bit tired of walking, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to stop here. He sat and yawned, eyes roving over the carvings on the tree. They were ornate, meaningless little things that all seemed to flow together and almost seemed to be a part of the tree itself. One almost flowed into another, and he could tell the different pressures from different creatures who had carved them. He found himself entranced before long, only partially keeping his wits about him lest someone come towards him at the border. Just because he was relaxed now didn't mean that he didn't have manners, of course. He'd still tuck tail to whatever leader showed up to meet him, or any wolf, as a matter of fact.


Cercatori d'Arte the tree read, like a proud proclamation to the world beyond the borders. Soribus' tail quivered a little in a weak wag, almost excited to begin a life here if he could. Of course, that depended on the decision of whatever leader came to judge his worthiness, but he was confident he could manage to get in. His eyes went back over those carvings and he almost wanted to be able to reach a hand out to touch them, but... ah, that would seem awfully pushy, wouldn't it? And he wouldn't want someone to catch him in the middle of transforming, it'd be awfully rude. And so Soribus just sat, just waited, just prepared and admired the tree and the sounds of the birds. He was confident he wouldn't be left waiting long.[/html]

hello, and welcome to Cercatori d'Arte! Just one thing; when choosing a rank, there are many ranks to choose from in Cercatori d'Arte - you can be a beginner in any of these ranks. You can look at the list here! Ranks Page. also, sorry for the delay and the bad post! D:

The graceful white female caught scent of the new member at her borders soon. Her now lithe body danced through the forest; she was glad that she had given birth - before she had felt clunky, useless, while now she was back to her thin and maneuverable self. She stood in front of the dog, taking in his appearance. He was black and white, much like Mars had been - a pang lanced through her body. Mars had left, taking Krystalle and Iliya with him. They were valuable members; she was sad to see them leave, but she knew that if they wanted to, it was their choice.

She smiled at the person; she didn't want him to feel unhappy at their borders - she wanted to make friends with others at this point, be they potential joiners or not. "Hello," she said. "I'm Skye Collins, leader of Cercatori d'Arte, the pack you rest on. May I help you?" She kept her demeanor light and friendly, although not hesitating to show that she was the leader. She waited for a reply, a smile on her face.

ooc| Ah. Derp. xD Mm, let's say beginner livestock raiser? Seems to fit the whole bear dog bit. Can't get much better than that for protection. It would be my preferred, but he would be good for either that or merchant. Also, don't feel bad. This post is derp too because I got about two hours of sleep last night. D< But yes. *cough*



A rustling in the foliage ahead of him tore Soribus' attention away from the tree and brought him to his feet, dipping his head and diverting his eyes. Tucking his tail was rather moot, as it was in that damnable curl that rested just so against his back. He kept his gaze just beside the leader, but his eyes were bright and his brows perked up in interest. He listened intently to her words, a small smile curling at black lips. "Yes," he said after just a moment to gather his thoughts. "I was hoping to join your ranks. The scent on your border is inviting, and holds much more... tranquility than some of the others. If you don't mind me saying, I have had a torrid life and would enjoy a chance at tranquility." Even as he spoke, his voice was hushed and hesitant, minding each word. His eyes, very briefly, went to hers before flicking away and down perhaps a bit further than before. "So I would be thankful for your hospitality and would be glad to assist the pack however I can." He smiled a bit more at that and his tail gave a small wag, stilling itself quickly and lifting his head just a bit, taking a deep breath and letting his posture relax slightly, almost questioningly. He was fairly sure he wouldn't need to worry about anything happening, but it was so deeply instilled in his spine that he couldn't relax completely even in his sleep, most likely.

That's great! Livestock raiser is a new rank and we need people to fill it. :3 I'll just go and accept you now - we can continue this thread if you want, and you can start other threads in the meantime!

At deeper inspection, she saw that the dog in front of her had quite the heavy build; his thick, black and white fur fur layered across his body, and she could see his muscular build even through the heavy fur. His tail was tightly curled and rest on his back - she'd never seen a tail like that and sheepishly wondered if it was uncomfortable. However, she didn't blame the man for not tucking his tail under his belly or showing much submission - she didn't require it at her borders, and didn't think that he was showing any disrespect in any way.

She listened to his words and agreed with him - she knew that many of the people in Souls wanted for peace, tranquility, and an escape from their past lives. A new start. She smiled in an understanding manner and spoke;

"If peace is what you're looking for, you've come to the right place," she said amiably. "Cercatori d'Arte is a pack focused on making friends with others and keeping a carefree and relaxed atmosphere. We encourage trade and friendship between the members and the packs as well," she said. "You're more than welcome to stay here."

She then listened as he said he'd be glad to offer any services he had to the pack. "What skills do you have that could assist us?" she asked.
