It is currently Fall.
Nights are starting to get longer and as the days pass, it's beginning to get colder. It's quite obvious that winter will be here shortly. Although there is upsides to the weather, everything is turning orange, yellow and red and it certainly is beautiful.
Breeding: No
Birthing: No
Food: Dwindling numbers; make the most of the food supply while it lasts.
Parvo and Rabies: Currently the Parvo plague has gone down quite a bit, however, Rabies is affecting a lot. If you get bitten by someone who has Rabies, or catch Parvo, I, Mother Nature will decide your fate.
Those affected: None

Explainations
Alphas: Alphas, Alphess' and the heirs to the throne are like royalty in the Enmity pack. They are top dog, what they say goes. If the heir demands something, it is to be listened to. Alpha and Alphess get first pick at food and if they so choose to steal anything from you, there is to be no complaints. Also, if your a female and have pup, the Alphess is allowed to steal, kill and banish your pups.
Second in command: Betas and advisers are second ranked and are always important of the Alphas. Betas job is the the second hand to the Alphas, they are the ones to report to instead of bothering the Alphas with nonsense. If the betas see fit to tell the alphas they will be the ones to tell them. If the Alphas are to go away, the Betas will fill in for them. Same goes for if they pass away, if the heir is not old enough or there is none, then they will take over the Alphas position. Advisers are there to help the Alphas through any descions, they help them decide on everything. If a beta is to pass away, the Adviser takes over that position.
Pups and Such: Den guards, pup sitters, pup mentors and adoptive mothers are the ones who make up a pups life. Den guards protect the young, since young are considered almost as important as the Alphas, they are to be protected at all times. Pup sitters are for when parents need a break, are going hunting, or even going into war. They are responsible for the pups safety and if anything is to happen to the young, there will be sever consquences. Pup mentors starting teaching the young when they hit six months old. They teach them hunting, whats good to eat and whats not, and all that good stuff. They also help the pups get the skills they need for whatever position the mentor sees most fit for the pup later on in the pack. Adoptive mothers are assigned females who are able to have "falsa pregnancies", so if the pups mother is to pass away at a young age, this female will adopt and care for the pup so that it won't die of starvation because it's not able to get milk.
The Army: The army general, second in command, soldiers, tactics, spy's, and territory guards are all part of the army and are extremely important. The army general's job is to keep everyone in line and make sure they know exactly what their doing. The army general's other job is to be a motivational speaker, some soldiers don't exactly want to risk their lives for the cause so they've got to have some speaking done. Second in command is to take over as soon as the army general falls. Soldiers are only meant to fight, they have so say in the matter. Tactics are to think up battle strategies, positions, ect, they are the brains behind the battles. Once the plan is lain down, everyone is to listen and do nothing else. The spys job is to get into the assigned territory, convince everyone they are just simple loners, get the information needed and get back out as quickly as possible. Spys have to be quick thinkers, skilled talkers and quite stelthy. Then the territory guards are to protect the lands from invasion. As soon as more than three wolves together, the guards are to alert the alphas immediatly. It is also their job to greet anyone wanting to join the pack, they ask a few questions and if they find them acceptable they are to report to the Beta who will decide whether they are worthy are not. The next step is they are brough to the Alpha and nine times out of ten the new member will be given a simple task and if they pass, they are permitted to join the pack.
Hunting: Hunting is an important part of the pack and these three positions are whats keeping the pack from starving. The hunting chief is who organizes pack hunts and leads the hunters into a hunt. That is, after they listen strategies wolf, who will decide how to approach whatever animal they are attempting to take down, how many kills are needed to feed the whole pack and what animals should be taken down. And of course the hunters, they are to carry out the plan and take down the animals as soon as they can and make sure the pack doesn't starve.
Captives: When a captive is captured, nine times out of ten the Alpha will decide the punishment and it's the Captives Generals job to make sure the captive punishers do as they're told. If the Alpha doesn't choose a punishment it is the captives generals job to do so. When not being used for anything, the captives will be kept somewhere and depending on how many, they will be assigned a captives guard who's job is to watch over them and make sure they don't escape. If a captive escapes there will be severe punishment. It is the captive punishers job to well...punish the captive for whatever crime.
Honored: Everyone in the honored have made had an important role in the pack, and probably still do. After the age of seven, any wolf will be retired to an elder. They are treated with a great amount of respect, and sometimes the alpha or alphess seek advice from them. The only job they usually have is telling the pups about the birds and the bees and if knowledge on herbs and healing wounds is known, then they help out with that. Honored is anyone who has done something worthy to be named this. Hero's are anyone who has done something heroic within the pack, and is to be treated with respect. Most pups look up to them for what they have done. Honorable dead is those who have died for the pack or who made an important stand in the pack. Lucky packs happen to be those packs that will be spared, and not attacked.
Subordinates: These are just regular pack members who have no standings within the pack, these are usually adolescents who aren't old enough to have any place or newcomers.
Those unlucky ones: There is usually only one omega in the whole pack, they are used to vent on and are tortured. These guys are even lower than the captives, and are pretty much not part of the pack. By defying the alpha and doing something wrong will place you in this position. The hated are any individale wolves who have earned hate from all of the pack. The exiled is anyone banished from the pack lands, normally you have to do something pretty bad for this. Enemy packs are those packs that are usually at war, and usually have betrayed this pack.

Traditions
These traditions will be carried out within the pack and are not to change.
-Pups are important to the pack, a birth is an extreme event within the pack and when there is one, the mother and the pups are treated like god. Everyone is to make sure that nothing happens to the family.
-Hunting once a week is a must, the whole hunting group must go out and find enough food for the pack. If food numbers are dwindling, the food must be spread out and shared evenly. Making sure the young, sick and elders get the best.
-When a pack member dies in this pack, everyone will mourn for three days. There will be no hunting, and no time for war. It is extremely important to make sure those that were extremely close to those that died are looked after.
-Anyone sick with either of the two plagues is to be treated the best they can and made sure they are comfortable. However, these diseases are too easy to catch so the sick will be kept a good distance from pack lands.
-When land invasions are happening, pups, elders, sick and anyone that needs to be, are to hide in a safe place. When the chance is good, they are to flee and be guarded by territory guards and den guards. -More may be added.
