The wolves in this world have a language all of their own. We encourage you to use these words while you roleplay! (Most words do not need to be capitilized, though ranks and titles are exceptional.)

Age Class···
Vura [v-ur-uh]
The general term for a wolf. Can be referred to several wolves, or just one. Can also be used as a word for a full grown adult wolf, but is usually just the word for the species of wolf.

Tasla [tass-luh]
A pup. A wolf under 12 months old.

Jaslin [jass-lin]
A yearling. A wolf between 12-24 months old.

Bressaw [bre-saw]
An elder wolf. Usually to point out their experience and how wise they are.


Ranks/Titles···
Cro [crow]
Generally used for either alpha, but specifically it is an alpha male.

Crae [ker-ey]
Only used when directly mentioning the female alpha.

Kayr [kay-uhr]
The beta wolf. Used for both male and female.

Aidys [aid-iss]
A wolf who uses skill to help others. Can also be a pup-sitter. They may have certain "magical" powers. Although, they can use other resources for their healing.

Bressaw [bre-saw]

Loira [loy-raw]
The lowest ranking wolf of a pack.

Grienor [grey-nor]
Grienor was a wolf in ancient times that defeated the ocean beast, trapping it in the sea. Waves are said to be the monster trying to get back on it's feet and swallow up the land. The story is old and sometimes told to pups, now wolves know the name as the word for a hero.
A title for a wolf, like a warrior. Usually strong and committed, very brave. The name would be given if they are acting like such, or have just done a great deed. Often is a big honor to be called one.

Lenjir [len-here]
A wolf not in a pack, traveling on their own.


Vocabulary···
Dror [d-roar]
Word for the winter season.

Caut [caw-t]
Word for spring season, sometimes referring to the mating season.

Heint [haynt]
Word for the summer season.

Tern [turn]
Word for the fall season.

Sirrah [seer-uh]
Prey and game of the wolf. Generally referred to all other animals beside the wolf.

Riah [rye-uh]
The hunter or predator. Can be another word for wolf. Rarely used unless the subject of speak is hunting.


Gods/Deities···

Avaldor [a-vall-door]
Avaldor is the creator of everything the wolf can see. He is the sun that watches the wolves from the sky. Wolves believe that whatever happens, it is in Avaldor's plan for them, he decides their fate from birth.
Wolves do not pray, but they acknowledge the sun. They wish for guidance and other things frequently.

Penti [pen-tee]
The daughter of Avaldor, and the light moon. She is the wolf that wolves in Luansir like more often to look up to. Penti is said to be a pure white she-wolf because of the moon's snow white surface. She hates to see wolves in distress, and if a wolf is saved from a certain disaster or relieved from some kind of pain be it physical or mental, the wolf will thank Penti for her kind heart.
It is said that Penti was lonely in the night sky, so she took the heart broken spirits of long passed wolves and placed them in the night with her, to become stars. When a wolf dies, those close to it and in it's pack will hope that they will find a place with Penti in the sky.

Zidier [zi-dee-ur]
The son of Avaldor, and the dark moon. Zidier is said to be a pitch black male wolf because of the moon's dark as asphalt surface. He is the one that likes to mess with wolves on the surface below. He tries to play around with his father's will for a wolf, making them die earlier than planned or making them stray from a specific quest. Wolves with dark hearts, those whom are said evil, will usually look up to Zidier with admiration.
Zidier also likes to poke around with his sister Penti. He forces wolf spirits to stay down and not become stars with the protective goddess.

Gaurdian
The wolf spirits that are forced by Zidier to stay on the surface. To make their time useful, they try to help the living wolves any way that they can. That is, if they have good hearts.
They cannot always be seen or heard by those of flesh and blood, but they can interact with other spirits.


Phrases···
(suggest a phrase to be converted into wolf-ish!)
