Lyvannaque~ Spend some time in the Lost Forest~

[Arty]

As you walk through the forest, you feel a change. Your skin feels warmer and the slight breeze makes it tickle a bit. You blink and your vision is clearer, your sense of smell is stronger, looking down you notice that you are growing fur and your hands are shrinking into paws. Walking on your legs starts to feel awkward so you drop down to all fours as you feel your tail swish through the air. A twig naps to your right and you spin to the side and notice a light brown wolf with brindling staring at you, her gold eyes sparkle in the moonlight and two other wolves flank her. The hair on the back of your neck rises but the three don't look threatening and it slowly lays flat again. 'Welcome to the Vannaque.' said the one in front though it looked like she yipped. The two behind her nodded their heads and you felt the need to follow them as they showed you towards the other wolves.

Okay, so in case you didn't understand, the Lost Forest, or the Vannaque, morphed you into a wolf and you are here to gather wolves and start your own pack.

What I, Sylana will say will be in purple
What Bun says will be in green
And what Sunny says will be in teal

- Natural colors and unnatural colors are both just as common but we're going to try to keep a genetic string for each canine.
- There is no difference between the rarity of male and female Lyvannaque
- Wolves from different packs rarely interact unless it's breeding season.
- Lyvannaque can only show three mutations but getting three to show is very rare.
- There is an 80% chance for one to show, a 45% chance to get two, and a 12% chance to get three to show when you have the right genetics present.
-

Genetic Information
- Liver [BB] and Black [K_] are the two main colors for the pigmentation of canines.
- Isabella (lilac) is very rare because it's a double recessive [bbdd].
- You can tell the difference between black [K_] and blue [dd] dogs by their noses, blue dogs have a distinctive blue/gray nose.
- If a dog does not have a mask, it must have the genotype EE (two copies of the normal extension gene), Ee (one copy of normal extension, one of recessive red), or ee (two copies of recessive red).
- Normal Wolf/Husky/Malamute colorings have the same genetic string [a^wa^wkkS^ps^p.
- The merle gene is known to cause a number of health problems, mostly deafness and blindness. These problems are unusual in heterozygous merles [Mm] but unfortunately common in double merles [MM]. For this reason two merles should never be bred together, as this will result in some double merle puppies. Puppies born to two merle parents, if born double, have a 4 in 5 chance of not making it to adulthood.
- Most normal "blue" merle genes are displayed as BBDDEEggMmSSKK and liver merles are usually displayed as bbDDEEggMmSSKK

Genetics
K_ - Black (solid black, no red)
kk - Recessive Non-Black (will still have black nose pigment and may have black markings, but may also have red markings too)
k^brk^br or k^brk - Brindle
BBdd or Bbdd - Blue (non-liver, dilute)
BBDd or BBDD - Black (non-liver, non-dilute)
bbdd - Isabella (liver, dilute)
bbDd or bbDD - Liver (liver, non-dilute)
A^y - Sable
a^w - Agouti
a^t - Tan Points
a - Recessive Black
E^mE - one mask allele, one normal extension allele
E^me - one mask allele, one recessive red allele
E^mE^m - two mask alleles
GG - Graying (starts out darker and turns really light as it ages)
Gg - Hetero Graying (starts out darker and turns a medium shade as it ages)
gg - Recessive Graying (doesn't gray out)
Mm or mM - Merle
MM - Double Merle
Tw - Tweed (merle modifier, thought to be dominant, very rare and similar to African Wild Dog patterns)
Hh - Harlequin (merle modifier, dominant, inherited seperately from merle but only effects merle, don't breed to make HH, results in miscarry or deformed young)
SS - No white
s^p - Piebald
sⁱ - 'True' Irish Spotting
T - Ticking
T^r - Roaning
T^d - Dalmation Spots
t - Clear White
Somatic Mutation - Very rare, is a mutation that occurs in the body cells after the embryo has begun to form

- Breeding in your pack can't occur until you have at least two females.
- 1-3 kits per litter is average, one and two are most common while three is uncommon, pups grow in 2 weeks.
- Breeding seasons occur every 2 months.
- You keep all your pups in your litters.
- Wolves must be one month old to participate in a breeding season.
- Natural and Unnatural colorings pass separately, it's harder to keep track of halves so they're either one or the other.
- Throw backs are uncommon but they do happen.
- Starting off, each user gets one breeding per season to keep it easier for us and more fair for you guys.

Your first custom.
This is the leader of your pack, the only way you can ever trade it is if a wolf that is two times the breeding age challenges them. They would just become part of the pack afterwards. (Riverwind is exempt since they already have an alpha)

[Sarah Badr]

Alaskan Malamute

[Ember]

Win a Custom:
The...uh, Tamaskan, was it called? Yeah, Tamaskan dog!

Tempting:
As a human I love to go on camping trips, so as a wolf I would love to bring her to some of the beautiful places I have camped and retrace my steps as a wolf. I wonder just how different things would seem as a wolf!

I dream of the stars:
Uh, most of my dreams are either nightmares about zombies, dreams related to my job as an RA in residence, or curiously enough dreams that come true several months to years after I've had them. The 'prophetic' ones tend to be only snippets of conversation or a specific action I will do but they're far more interesting than the zombies!

[Arty]

@ Sarah: No, but close!

@ Ember: I've never heard of the Tamaskan before o.o I want one XD
Sadly, no, that's not one of the two closest (HINT: They're not obvious at all but one is known for it's Chinese roots and the other for it's Japanese roots)

She looks at you, waving her tail slightly and comes over to sniff you. Afterwards she walks halfway back to where she was before and sits back down She likes what you're offering but she wants to hear from others as well before she decides.

The pup barks and growls when you mention zombies, trying to sound and look ferocious then looks at you questioningly with it's head tilted to the side as you continue. I think it's the same as with the girl but you'll just have to wait and see

You may play the custom game again once I answer your guess ^^

Oh, and Sarah, I forgot to ask about marking color you can either edit your post or post saying what color(s) you want ^^

[toffeeca]

Chow chow?

[Sarah Badr]

Copper-ish.....not tan and not silver...in-between.

On the lil chart on the right where it shows the 2 closest, we've owned both...I'd have never thought of either of them. (I did go look on wiki...but I won't say since I looked).

Japanese and Chinese roots hmm....only Japanese breeds I'm particularly familiar with are the Shibas/Akitas. So for this guess...Akita Inu?

We can do a mutation too? Like what kinds?

[Sarah Badr]

Tempting...

Roaming through the snow-capped mountains, chasing gazelle through the red sand deserts and splashing through the waves on the beachs of Morocco. In the distance you hear the call to prayer like a lullaby as you turn inland to play with tree-climbing goats teasing you from the tops of olive trees.

I dream of the stars.

I dream of beautiful twin daughters with their father's black hair, tan skin and emerald green eyes filled with mischief. With fairy smiles and imp laughter . Wild, free, brave and adventurous with a thirst for knowledge, kindness and truth.

[Arty]

@ Ember: You're on the right track!

@ Sarah: There are fairy wings, dragon wings, dragon spikes, valkyrie horns, feathered wings, mane, short fangs, and long fangs. But you can only get them with a full custom or a premade

She looks off into the distance as if imagining herself there, she takes a step forward then shakes her head, realizing that she was still here in the forest. She looks at you with an innate interest and scoots closer to you. 

The pup wags his tail and whines at you, twining himself around your legs. Wanting you to play with him. This is gonna be tough, and I'm sure answers will only get better as more people play >.>;;

[Sarah Badr]

I am seriously so depressed now....from my two answers. Someone take me to the airport!!!!!

Hummm, Shiba Inu? XD

[Wildfilly94]

I dream of Stars:
I usually dream of natural disasters happening in the world, or my boyfriend being a turd, but one dream type I keep having is having a child. I dream of loving that child so much it overwhelms me almost, and no greater joy came from me than having that child. Perhaps you are the young child I dream of? Your beautiful, strong, and brave, just like the child I dream of so many nights.

When I dream I dream of a log cabin by the lake.
