THE LYCAON PACK is looking for their EX-PACK LEADER

CHARACTER NAME: First name is [up to player], Lycaon

FACE CLAIM: Carla Gugino, Julianna Margulies, Hannah Waddingham, [up to player] 

GENDER: Female

SPECIES: Werewolf (Alpha)

AGE: 280 years and above

SEXUALITY: Heteroflexible (details in background)

OCCUPATION: [up to player] 

DISTRICT: Chissob Hills

BACKGROUND: 

She was the leader of the Lycaon pack in Vievecor City for about 200 years until her son, Caleb challenged her to pack leader status 2 years ago. She lost this fight and Caleb assumed pack alpha status. It is still unclear to Caleb if she tossed the fight, but she insists that she did not.

She has 5 children in total with her husband (omega). The eldest is a beta male, followed by an omega female, then Caleb (alpha), Gwen (alpha) and finally a beta female.

When her alpha son Caleb challenged her to a fight about 2 years ago, she lost and he took over as pack alpha. She has been living in Vievecor City as a lone wolf ever since.

PERSONALITY: Strict, disciplined, traditionalist, [up to player] 

RELATIONSHIP WITH CHARACTERS: 

With Caleb: Once Caleb manifested late as an alpha, she overlooked his younger sister Gwen and chose Caleb out of her two alpha children to train with the intention to have him take over from her as pack leader. He has always been an obedient child when it comes to her and they are closer to each other in certain ways than she is with Gwen. That said, Caleb is still intimidated by her on most days, even up to the day he challenged her for pack leader status. Caleb had the intention of losing this fight, but he ended up winning and had to take over as pack alpha in the aftermath. Caleb still visits her even though she is not part of the pack anymore and asks for her advice when he dares to. Whether she gives it to him depends on her mood. With Gwen: Your character is the reason why Gwen has mommy issues. Ever since Gwen first began showing signs of being an alpha, your character always pressured Gwen to be great. Gwen was initially chosen and trained to lead the pack, until Caleb’s Alpha traits began to flourish. From there, your character constantly pit the two alpha’s against one another, far past the bounds of a sibling rivalry. Gwen has never felt good enough in the eyes of her mother,  feeling as though her success was often overcast by Caleb’s. Even though she is a semi-famous and successful chef in the culinary industry, started her own rock band, and even owned her own restaurant, it wasn’t good enough for her mother. This is why Gwen finds herself closer to her father, and often avoidant and standoffish with her mother. Gwen has always been loyal to the pack, even when she was passed up for Alpha, and the betrayal of Caleb challenging their mother. To add to this, Caleb passed up Gwen as second, only to choose Jaxon was another irritant for Gwen. Although he did nothing but try to love Gwen, she never felt that she could trust him due to his deep rooted connection with her mother. Now that Gwen is aware of just  how deep that connection truly went… Gwen is anything but stable. With Jax: Jaxon met your character a long while ago when his old pack merged into Lycaon. Back then, he was still a relatively young wolf but his experience and strong character soon made him stand out from the rest. Eventually, this resulted in her choosing him as her second in command.  Over the years, their friendship grew. Jax was there for every big decision. He was there to help raise her kids, took to Caleb and Gwen as though they were his own, and being everything an alpha would expect their beta to be. Their connection was obvious to anyone who cared to notice but it was always assumed to be nothing out of the norm. This was the case for many years; until she and Jax slept together during heat and started what would become a rather short-lived affair that has remained latent to this day. Said affair would result in Gwen being conceived - something she kept from Jaxon and her husband in an effort to keep the good Lycaon name and save her reputation in the process (there may have been other reasons, such as not wanting Jax to leave the pack/lose him, but that is up to the player). Even if things did get rocky as a consequence of unresolved feelings between the two when the affair ended, Jaxon has love for her and has remained loyal up to this day, taking his old role as Caleb’s right hand unaware of Gwen being his blood…until now.

Gwen’s eyebrow shut up in curiosity as her fingers idly strummed her new guitar. “Right… of course,” Gwen added skeptically as she gave the person a once over, sensing something about him she just couldn’t place. He didn’t smell of wolf or vampire, so what was he? Edgar seemed just as curious as he sat up from where he was laying down to assess the new person. His tail wagged half-hazardly as he sniffed the air. Gwen moved her hand along the top of his head to ease him as the male drew closer to their spot in the clearing. 

The alpha werewolf knew there would be plenty of others in these woods tonight as tomorrow’s shift grew closer, especially witches and wolves. He didn’t smell have the lingering smell of brimstone and self-loathing that usually came with the witches, which only left Gwen all the more in wonder. When he placed his hand close to Edgar he sniffed it carefully, looking towards his mother for permission. When Gwen gave a nod, Edgar eagerly began greeting the fellow, all but jumping up on his hind legs to give the stranger full access to his body for attention and scritches. “You are such a mess,” she teased to the dog with a chuckle before glancing up at the fellow. “I’m not sure. Just picked up this bad boy the other day so just playing around until it sounds good,” she added honestly. “You play?”

Eri gleefully allowed the dog to sniff his hand, eager as always to see the nuances of his behavior. He scratched the dog's head, inviting him closer. The dog looked... well, Eri didn't know enough dogs to know if he was happy, but he guessed from the smile and lolling tongue that he was enjoying it.

"What's this fellow's name?" He asked, not needing to brace much despite the dog's weight and size. Something about petting the dog was making him feel good. The body was filling with warm fuzzy feelings in the pit of the stomach. Perhaps this was one of those things that made the bodies happy, like bird watching, as Wren had said.

"I see. I play a bit of bass. Guitar, not so much," he said, taking the information in. "Well, you sound like you have talent. If you keep at it, you'll be a pro in no time."

Eri looked at the person attached to the dog. Somehow, she felt familiar to him, in a very distant way. She reminded him of Caleb, but at the same time, she was very, very different. Eri wondered what the connection was. "What are you doing out here?"

[eri-mergo]

"I'll keep that in mind," Eri said lightly, holding his hands up to show that he wasn't a threat. "Of course I'm not hunting you. I just heard you playing and thought I'd drop in."

Eri had honestly just been up exploring, unable to sleep because of the full moon's beauty. Of course, it paled in comparison to the views he'd had of the moon back in the Divine Realm, but the one he was looking at now was somehow more real, and he appreciated that about it. It had flaws, imperfections upon its surface instead of just being a blank planet out in space. He got the sense that flying outside the Holy District when not strictly necessary was frowned upon, so he was just walking. He took his time trying to find the best view, allowing the wind to follow behind him like an old friend. At least that was one thing he could rely on to not change.

The wind seemed to pick up slightly around the clearing as Eri approached the person and their dog. He thought about asking what they were doing out here so late, but decided against it. After all, he wasn't exactly any better. Instead, he bent to allow the dog to sniff his hand. "What's that you're playing?"

Where: Forestry Area around Chissob Hills When: Recent Who: Gwen x Open ( @vievecorcitystarters​ )

Gwen’s first few days back in the city had been about exactly how she’d expected them to be. Between catching up on the hacking nonsense, the pack, and things at her restaurant, Gwen already felt like she needed another vacation. With all the stress she was feeling, she decided to retreat to one of her favorite places, a small camp ground area in Chissob Hills where her and Edgar could sit by a fire and not be bothered. With the full moon coming up she knew the woods were bound to be fairly busy, but she didn’t care. Delicately strumming her new guitar as she watched the fire dance, her rottweiler snoring next to her, she almost missed the rustling in the bushes near by. Edgar poked his head up in a startle as Gwen moved a hand to soothe him. “If you’re out there trying to  hunt me, just know I bite back,” she playfully called out to whoever was lurking near by.

Attending this event had not been among Jaxon's list of priorities for the week. In fact, he should have probably been on a plane right now crossing the atlantic to see someone very special, but his plans and her schedule just hadn't worked out. Already, that had put the wolf in a sour mood, which was only made worse when..across that fancy ball room, he spotted the woman that he had been dodging for weeks.

Truth be told, Jax didn't think it would hurt that much to see her again. A year ago, he would have been happy to, but..knowing what he did and given the way things had unfolded, it was a miracle he was standing so calm. So it was true, then, he thought to himself, Elizabeth was back. Tugging at the lapels of his jacket, the rogue wolf questioned his wish to confront her. After all, it would have been far easier to pretend like he was not interested. Seeing Gwen there too, however, brought back his purpose. Their kid..at least to his thinking.

Exhaling once and allowing his instincts to take hold of him, Jaxon walked up to the alpha and finally..finally broke his silence. "Elizabeth." he rasped in greeting, holding a hand out and keeping a cool exterior despite the war brewing inside. "..may I have this dance, please?"

i need to talk | augustine & caleb

for: @augustine-lycaon location: lycaon family home

It was a few weeks since it happened by now but Caleb was still trying to come to terms with the revelation about Gwen and Jaxon. The emotions that he did not usually allow to overcome him had come to a head multiple times until now and he was certain that the Lycaon pack was starting to notice that there was something off about their leader. Caleb had made the decision not to tell anyone of Gwen's new heritage for many reasons, but even he had a breaking point and he needed to find a distraction.

He invited Augustine over to his family home that evening, thinking that the other alpha was safe to be around since he had always been a stable presence in Caleb's life even if he was not officially part of the Lycaon pack anymore.

"Beer?" he asked when they both walked into the kitchen because he did not quite want to broach any particular topic just yet.

Location: Multiple.. Nevermore

Waking up from the dream, many things had become violently evident in their life. Firstly, Max missed having family, their parents were somewhere, not that they had talked recently. If you asked Max where they were, there would be no response.

The second thing was a multiphase realization. Hearing Gwen had married, had hurt, sure it was Auggie and not real but that hadn't stopped it from feeling real. Seeing her dead, that was worse. Max had kept their shit together as best as they could at the time there were bigger problems and well all the other gays were ending up dead.

Being on the other side of the dream had given them a push they'd needed. They now just had to get to see her and then hopefully have the strength to ask.

Days are getting harder...

Day 3 The dawn of the third day spelled another red letter day as there were another three victims. Gwen Lycaon-Cavill was found outside of the Cavill home leaving her two children now parentless and no next of kin to take over their care. Esmeralda, the towns midwife was found outside her home. Sen Kimura, the silent bounty hunter was a bit of a surprise to find dead. Everyone is starting to loose faith and the possibility of finding out just what was happening here started to seem like a hopeless dream. The town while turning on each other had a tied vote so four instead of three were brought to their ends: Elio, Elena, Vivian, and Gideon.

Gideon was confirmed a monster a terrifying creature from the stuff of nightmares. While other three remained human. Adding to the tally of innocents that were condemned in the seemingly fruitless hunt for answers. However Gideon's last words were by far more concerning, he seems to know what he was doing and that the others would finish the job for him.... Stranger and stranger.

[vievecorcityevents]

The third day rolls about and when the sun rises in the morning, 3 more bodies have been discovered... How long is this going to keep happening in Phantom Creak before the killers are found?

These victims were all found with deep injuries on their bodies that are exactly the same as the ones on the murder victims before. Just like the victims from the night before these ones all appear to be fully human.

The list of victims are as follows:

Gwen Lycaon-Cavill (outside the Cavill home)

Esmeralda Bheriya (outside Esme's home)

Sen Kimura

OOC:

3 murders took place instead of 4, which means that a murderer tried to kill another one. Three murderers now know know each other's identities.

Judas and Ayumu catch up, making it an even fight.

The hunters are taken down and Teddy is freed.

who: gwen & frankie @gwen-lycaon where: Nevermore

Good god, this was embarrassing. Frankie hadn't blacked out...maybe ever? She was more in control then that, in spite of being a damn good bartender she actually had a two drink max rule for herself. One minute she was watching a romcom with a glass of wine, the next...well the next was nothing, zip! How was that possible? Was she really such a lightweight?

She would have been more freaked about it if she hadn't have ended up in her apartment. Meeting up with Gwen she couldn't help but shift awkwardly. How do you ask your friend if you sent any embarrassing texts or voice memos in a casual way? This was the biggest reason why Frankie was such a control freak, to avoid situations like this.

"Hey," she cleared her throat as she walked over to see the ultra cool, blonde, buddy. "So how was your night?" She hummed trying to remain casual. Attempting to access any shift in the vibes. "And...did I-I didn't call you or anything right?"

CALEB LYCAON

Age: 32 Occupation: Mountain Man Background:

Caleb was born and raised in Phantom Creak with his sister Gwen.

Caleb knew from a young age that he was not a fan of living amongst people and has been living in the wilderness around Phantom Creak since he was 18. He has fought off a number of outlaws in his life as a mountain man and he prides himself in keeping them away from Phantom Creak when he can.

He returns to Phantom Creak once a month to trade for supplies that he needs to survive in the wilderness. His main offerings to people in town are furs and meats of the wild animals he hunts in the mountains.

Gwen is often trying to convince him to come back to Phantom Creak to live out the rest of his life, but he is adamant about living on his own.

Caleb has been feeling the desire for a family recently and wants a wife and children of his own, but he is not sure if he will be able to find a woman who would enjoy living the way he does. His stubbornness is what is keeping him from properly exploring this path in life.

Potential Plots/Connections:

Someone Caleb has saved in the wilderness before (Rei, Naz, ...)

Connections in town (Jax, ...)

A potential love interest (Naz, ...)

A failed love interest

An outlaw he has fought in the past

More to come...

Stay awhile

Status: Closed - for @gwen-lycaon Event: Phantom Creek Location: The Saloon

"Dont tell me you're gonna saunter past and not come say hi, Suga?" She waved to her darling friend as she leaned in the door way of the saloon keeping one of the door propped open. She had a new unopened bottle that she'd gotten in the shipment that Caia had brought back. "I got new stuff to try and you look like you could use the break."

Max wasn't about to take no for answer as she pushed off the frame of the doorway and crossed over to Gwen, "Don't make me throw you over my shoulder and kidnap you now." She gave her a bit of a wink and a smile offering her hand to her.

TAKING MATTERS INTO OUR OWN HANDS...

On the morning of October 1st, in place of the monthly edition of the V.C. Gazette, a message is sent out to every member in the supernatural community.

The supernatural community is clearly in further uproar. Everyone has received and read this message. While some still believe it to be a prank, no one can explain why anyone would play one as cruel as this. It has come to light that those taken include a wolf from the Lycaon pack, a witch from the Remington coven, an elf from the Westwood clan, and a vampire fledgling from the Roşu clan.

The Council has immediately urged everyone to remain calm while the respective elders handle the situation, but how else would a community under attack feel when they know that their attackers have now captured even more of their own?

No one knows who Artemis is, but everyone is desperate to find out...
