<@Saigh> This meeting has alot going on, so we ask that you pay attention and keep your questiones direct and on target. After each topic I will ask if anyone has any questions/comments or concerns if its applicable and have everyone type X if they have something to say or - if they are ready to move on, this will keep things quick, clean and to the point. Do not speak until your called on, that <@Saigh> way we can make sure everyone gets a say. We will start with OOC discussion. During this time please refrain from using OOC scripts if you have them and cease roleplay until we begin the IC portion of the meeting. <@Kazmarez> Tonight we plan to make Kladd`atir official. We know that its been a bit long and drawn out getting here but we did that to ensure that everyone had time to form bonds among themselves so that we have a strong foundation for this pack. We want to thank everyone for their patience the last month or so - we know its been a bit slow going but you all have done a wonderful job, and it served its ...cut <@Kazmarez> purpose to create a strong foundation for Kladd`atir to be built on. ...end <@Saigh> We want everyone to get to know their council members and know that we are here to make this more fun for you.

Kyrie will be concidered an OOC Council Member. If you ever need anything PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO COME TO ANY OF US. et clear goals and expectations. Not only for you as the pack members, but for ourselves as a council. That way we are all held accountable. What we want for Kladd`atir is for it to be a pack that is for its members, by its members. All decisions from here on out will be discussed with the pack as a whole so we hear everyones thoughts and opinions. It will then be brought to the ...cut <@Kazmarez> contin... council and voted on among the council and Majority will -always- rule. No one wolf has the power to overrule anything. What we expect from our members is total disclosure. If you are upset about something/someone, please say something! We cant fix it if we dont know there is a problem. Even if its about another council member, we can only get better through your critique. We expect you guys to ...cut <@Kazmarez> contin... make Kladd`atir a priority, and understand that we sacrifice our time to put up pack events, and set plots in motion and we expect the same devotion from everyone else.

Information can be found in the Topic, or notices sent out by the bot when you join. We also have the Website and a Facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/423611441081987/ and I will send out text message <@Saigh> notifications about pack events ect - If you want to be added to this list please text me now 702-860-9924 with your woofle name. <@Kazmarez> This is super important: As of tonight we are also going to start enforcing activity within the RP.

Everyone is welcome to chat but they must contribute to the roleplay. <@Saigh> Tonight everywolf who has been on and active will be given a rank to uphold. The time from the moment of the fire until tonight has been concidered assessment for everyone (Except those who have recently joined up within the last week or so). Keep in mind that ranks will be given and taken based on the activity, attendance adn devotion of the players. Everywolf who joins from this moment <@Saigh> on will be required to fullfill Assessment. We love to see all the bonds that are forming among the pack but we do ask that everyone remember not to form cliques. Everyone must RP with everyone else. You should not base your RP on if another character is rping at the same time (unless there is an IC reason you cannot rp without that person) Please remember, we are ALL family. <@Saigh> Up to this point <@Saigh> Questions/Comments/Concerns type 3X if your ready to move on type 3- - x <@Haezani> - - <@Kazmarez> - - <@Saigh> Ammorez.

Time to get started. She through back her head in a long, baying alto, calling the pack together. When all had assembled, she spoke. 14Lets Begin she says eagerly. 14Kaz, Tim, Zani and I (and Kyrie) have decided that this place is perfect to put down some roots. I Know we have all been traveling for a while and its been sorta chaotic, but we want to settle down now and establish * @Saigh 14things. Everywolf as earned their right to be in this pack, in this family. We have chosen the name Kladd`atir for our family, wordplay on the word Claddagh, which is a symbol of Love, Loyalty and friendship, all traites we want in a family, and atire- which is wolf. So it depicts exactly what we are. A family of wolves. Now, If everywolf would please, form a circle and take a seat. She * @Saigh began, waiting for everywolf to assemble according to her request. 14The reason I... well we She said, looking around at Kaz, Timur and Haezani (and Kyrie) 14request you to do this, is so that we are all equals during meetings. No one wolf's voice is louder then any other and we stand together. As we always should. she says with an affirmative nod before continuing, launching right into * @Saigh things. 14Everywolf has requested a rank and tonight it will be granted. Takoda, if you would step forward first and come to the center of the circle, please. She said, looking for the blue eyed, chocolate pelted brute. * Tak`Tik lifts his eyes and pads into the center of the circle, dipping his head respectfully * @Kyrie stood beside mama facing the wrong way as she nodded confidently with her mama's word. * @Saigh waves her tail as he makes he breaks away from the circle. When he reaches the center she speaks once more 14Takoda, you have requested the position of Sentry, specializing as a Battalion. This means you will be the protector of our pack, it will be your duty to ensure that we are safe, and means putting your life on the line for the sake of the others. Do you accept this role? * Tak`Tik nods and speaks "I shall do my best to ensure all of our safety. I accept." * @Saigh nods with a smile. 14Then welcome Takoda, Sentry Battalion of Kladd`atir she raises her head in congradulations, howling joyfully for the wolf who had been assisting her in feeling better and encouraging others to join in. When the howls begin to die down, she would look to Kazmarez to call the next wolf up. * Ammorez howls softly in the background. * @Kyrie churrs and puppeh howls, still facing the wrong way. * Xero howls along with the others in brief congratulations. * @Kazmarez smiles and howls for Takota, their new Sentry Battalion * Gareth headtilts, then howls as well * Alastar perks at Ammorez howling and ponders joining in. But as the pup starts, Ala mimics a howl, a little nervously. * @Haezani offers up a congratulatory howl to the new Battalion. * @Kazmarez dismisses Takoda back to his place in the circle, while his gaze seeks out Serenia. Kaz smiled and nodded to Sere, she would summoning her forward to the center of the circle. "Serenia, you have requested to be a Caretaker, specializing as a Shaman. You have already proved your skills in this area without a doubt and you know your duties are to care for the sick, the injured and the weak in ...cut <@Kazmarez> contin... the pack. Is this the rank you choose? ...end * %Tak`Tik returns to his place in the circle, sitting up a bit straighter and a grin pulling at the corners of his mouth. * Sere approaches Kazmarez and smiled. She bowed her head. " It would be my honor to care for you all. It is indeed." * @Kazmarez smiles at her response and nods firmly "Then Congradulations, Serenia Caretaker Shaman of Kladd`atir" Kaz then raises his voice to the skies above for his friend's rank <@Kyrie> "Awoooo" * Alastar smiled as Serenia FAINALLY got what she wanted. Alastar raises his voice in a howl. * %Tak`Tik lifts his head and howls loudly for his court * Ammorez joins in the harmony of howls. * @Haezani grins as she watches Serenia being granted her rank, offering up a happy howl in congratulations. * Xero tilted his chin up, another congratulatory howl escaping his muzzle. * Gareth joins in * @Saigh happily throws back her head in a cheerful song for Serenia, knowing she more then anyone deserved the position. She nodded to her with a smile before dismissing her cousin back to the cirlce before looking for her male cousin. Spotting Alastar's silver frame she would tilt her head slightly 14Alastar, you requested the rank of Sikla.... its an odd request, are you sure this is * @Saigh 14what you want. As a Silkla, you would be mediating conflicts in the pack which could mean putting yourself in the line of sights for those who are bickering which could easily turn around on you. Are you sure this is the rank you desire? * Alastar stepped forward, a little nervous. But heck, he had been doing that since he was a pup. "Yes ma'am." He responded. * @Saigh nods sagely. 14If your sure, then so be it. Alastar, Sikla of Kladd`atir. She didnt understand it but she could tell it made him happy and so regardless she raised her head and sent her baying alto skyward, cheering on her cousin. * Ammorez howls for Alastar. * Saigh sets mode: +h Alastar * %Tak`Tik joins in howling for Alastar, at the same time thinking he really needs to drag him back into training if he might be ending up in harms way * Xero joins with the others in the support of Alastar. * @Kazmarez raised his muzzle in a howl for Alastar, as odd as it was, it was a great thing to see him taking up a rank at all. Kaz had faith he would perform the rank well - every pack needed a little humor right? XD * Gareth howls again * @Haezani howls for the brute, despite how odd his request had been. * @Timur howled for Alastar * AndroUser2 smiled wide and sung a howl for her brother. It was destiny? * %Alastar smiled, he was half expecting to see all the wolves with confused faces or something, but was happy as they all howled. He gave them all a warm smile before moving back into the crowd * @Kazmarez nods to Alastar, dismissing him back into the group. A few of you have not been around long enough to have earned a rank, but still consider you as friends. We offer you assessment tonight. Assessment is a period of learning where you can get to know us better and eventually join our ranks - our family. Ammorez, Gareth, and Xero please come forward. Do you accept this trial period? * AndroUser2 is now known as Renia * Ammorez steps up to the Alphas a bit nervously before dipping her head. "Yes." * Xero raising up to his full height the male stepped toward the alpha's, a certain pride in his grey-white depths. "Yes." * Gareth follows Ammorez and Xero forward and sits, dipping his muzzle to the two wolves before the trio, "I accept." * @Kazmarez nods to them and smiles in congradulations "Good Luck then, Ammorez, Gareth, and Xero, Assessments of Kladd`atir", he then raised his muzzle to howl for the new assessments * Saigh sets mode: +v Gareth * Ammorez dips her muzzle respectfully before taking her place back with the group. * @Haezani lifts her muzzle in a howl for the three assessments. <@Kyrie> "Awoooo" * +Gareth howls for his new-found counterparts * %Tak`Tik howls for the three wolves * %Serenia smiled and howled for the newcomers * @Timur howls for the newcomers. * %Alastar lifts his head in song for the newcomers, although was a little wary of Xero * @Saigh raises her song once more for the new assessments, hoping they all do well. When her song ends she noddes to them, dismising them back into the group and nodds to Kaz and the Betas, and steps forward, summoning them to do the same. As she moved to the innermost part of the circle she also caught the eye of Serenia and Takoda, summoning them both forward along with them. She leaned * @Saigh into Kazmarez's side as she spoke. 14No doubt that love is in the air. Standing before you, each pair here has decided to take the next step in their relationship by becoming Courts. <@Saigh> Serenia and Takoda, Timur and Haezani as well as Kazmarez and myself. Let this be a time for each of us to get a better idea of who we are with and cherish our time together and lets all wish each other the best in our courtships. she raised her head from the center of the circle, sending up a song for the couples and hope for the future of her own. * +Xero returns to his position after howling his congrats to the fellow Assessment wolves. * +Ammorez tail thumps for the newly announced courts and howls happily. * %Alastar felt a little lonely he didn't have a court of his own, but he could still be happy for Serenia, and so he gave what he hoped to be his last howl for a while. Thirsty work it was, howlin' all the time. * %Tak`Tik brushes against Serenia's side and smiles as they are brought to the middle of the circle again, together this time. He lifts his head and adds his voice to the song, full of happiness and love. * @Haezani would move into the center of the circle alongside Timur, feeling absolutely giddy. She would press gently against his side as she lifts her muzzle to the skies in a joy-filled howl, not just for her friends' relationships but for her own as well. <@Kyrie> * @Timur smiles towards Haezani, nosing her cheek softly and lovingly. Howling for the other couples alongside her. His tail swishing behind him. * %Serenia smiled and looked over to Takoda, nosing his scruff gently as they made way to the center lifting her maw into a beautiful howl. <%Alastar> @Kazmarez smiles softly and leaned into Saigh softly curling his tail around her proud to be her court, and very happy that they had come so far. But also, he was proud of the other couples too. He would lift his head up in a howl for the pairs and then snuck a nuzzle to his own before grinning innocently * @Saigh noses Kazmarez lovingly as her howl faded, She was beyond happy, Not just for her and her court, but for the other couples as well. * @Kazmarez smiles as the howls died down he would nod to the newly proclaimed courts before dismissing Sere and Tak back to the circle, leaving Timur, Haezani, Saigh and himself at the center. Tonight we wish also to seal spiritbonds between Myself and Timur, and Haezani and Saigh. At this time, we will all give our reason for wanting these bonds to be made. He then went silent as the others voiced ...cut <@Kazmarez> contin... their thoughts first ...end * @Saigh began, facing Haezani as she spoke yet talking to the crowd 14Haezani and I have had a unique friendship from the start. She has been there for me as a friend, as a confidant, and as a bite in the tail when I needed it. We've endured so much together from crazy wildlings and creepy wolves to the landslide that brought us to Earthensong and everything in between and trhough it all * @Saigh 14she has been my constant support and friend. I don't have any blood siblings, but when I imagine what it would be like to have a sister, I imagine Haezani. * @Haezani would smile at her friend, her words causing a lump to form in her throat and tears to spring to her eyes. After she had finished she would blink a bit, taking a moment to clear her throat before speaking, “I feel like we’ve known each other our whole lives, even though I know it isn’t true. We’ve just always had this special comradery…a friendship that just feels…right,” she says with an almost goofy grin. â <@Haezani> fantastic femme has been my rock throughout every difficult trial I have ever faced in my life. If it wasn’t for her I wouldn’t be standing here. I would probably be drowned in some ocean or hiding under a rock, too afraid to face the light of day. I don’t have any siblings either but I’ve always felt as if…somebody should be beside me. As if I needed somebody to walk this world with whom I could trust more than <@Haezani> anybody else. And when I found Saigh, I found that wolf. I found my sister.” * @Kazmarez smiled swayed his tail* "Our bond as brothers go very far back - back to puphood. We have been raised together, played together, and even lead the pack prior together. Much of that time we were bonded through his sister. But now that the bond is no longer officially recognised, I wish to call him my brother officially once again - as our bond never faded" * @Timur glanced to the circle of wolves, his new home. His black tail flicked behind him happily. Sienna ears pinned forward as he looked at Kazmarez. "It isn't a secret to know how Kazmarez and I call each other brother. It was something our fathers, Chande and Kivak had done. It is a tradition we have stepped into the paws of. I am not just Kazmarez' Beta Male as was my father to his. But I am his 5Cut»» <@Timur> 5Continue»» brother. Azamakaios, my sister named each other brothers in bond(in law) when she became Kazmarez' mate. When she joined my grandfather in the skies. I never stopped looking at Kazmarez like a brother." He cleared his throat. "I grew up with him as family." He grinned again. "I will never think otherwise." 5. * @Kazmarez waits until all the statments were made before asking the crowed. "If no one objects to these bonds, please join me in sealing these bonds." he said as he howled loud and long for the bonds, his tail wagging hard happily sitting next to his brother * +Ammorez howls happily for the bonds made by the council members of Kladd`Atir. * +Gareth joins in, tail wagging as he howls for the new pairs * @Timur howled for the bonds. Smiling to his brother calmly. * %Serenia (androirc@1161edb9.hsd1.nj.5aa6454b.net.hmsk) Quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds ) * %Tak`Tik howls for the bonded wolves, feeling the excitement of the nights events ringing in his voice * @Saigh raised her voice to the stars, weaving her voice with Haezani's tying their bond with their song. * +Xero howls along, happy for the counted and bonded wolves. <+Xero> courted* * @Haezani would grin at her sister before lifting her muzzle to the sky to emit her own howl. * %Alastar let out a groan, how much more howling did they have to do? The poor animals were probably one hundred feet underground trying to sleep. Alastar raised his voice one LAST time. @Kyrie howls, looking quite confuzled as to why she keeps howling along with all the other woofles...but she was having fun none-the-less. * Serenia (androirc@3ae8cf75.pools.aa393787.net.hmsk) has joined #wolfhollow * @Saigh nosed Tim and Zani before dissmissing them and calling out for Kyrie, summoning the little pup to come stand before them in the circle. When she arrived she would smile at the pup, though at nearly 8 months old, she was no longer the size of a pup. 14Kyrie, You know that in our hearts you have always been ours, and we have always been yours but tonight, in light of the official * @Saigh 14forming of our pack, we want to make our family official too. Do you want that too? she asked, though she knew the answer. * @Kyrie perked hearing her mama call her and finally managed to turn around the right way. She tilted her head at Saigh slightly confuzzled. "Yesh...Yous is mama and Kaz is papa. We is famiwy!" * @Saigh smiled, her tail wagging as she spoke her peace to the pack 14Kaz had and I have been Kyrie's guardians from the time we found her in that snow drift. Together we have raised her and in many ways we could thank her for bringing us together. she grinned as she leaned into Kaz. 14She is my daughter, through and through. she said with a nod, looking to Kaz to see if he had anything * @Saigh to add. * @Kazmarez griggled at her reaction and then smiled softly, knowing that, for formalities, they all needed to answer a question about the bond - even as alphas adopting the little pup* "Now it is time for Saigh and I to explain why" *he turned to Saight o let her go first* * @Kazmarez grinned at the little pup and searched for words to describe the bond with little Kyrie, "Since that day when we found Kyrie in the snow, I have not rested until she is safe and happy. All I want for her is to grow up in joy and happiness as Saigh and I join together as a family. We three have been an unofficial family for so long - it seems only formalities that Kyrie is not my daughter. I ...cut <@Kazmarez> contin... wish for all to know that she is ours" *he said with a fatherly smile to the little one* ...end * @Saigh nods 14Then its agreed. From now on, let it be known that Kazmarez and I have adopted Kyrie and she has accepted us as her parents. 5She sangout, overjoyed This was icing on the cake with everything else and she could never imagine a day in which she would be so happy ever again. <@Saigh> ||- random 5 <<; -|| * %Alastar smiled at the little family formation. Moving over to his own sister, Alastar nosed Serenia on her scruff lightly. * %Alastar smiled at the little family formation. Moving over to his own sister, Alastar nosed Serenia on her scruff lightly. * @Kyrie blinks even more confuzzled. What a life for a pup being constantly confused. "Papa not my papa? Or is my papa now?" She shrugged and joined in the howl. "Yay for mamas and papas and kyries!" * Serenia nuzzled her brother as another member was mended into their family.. Kyrie. She sung over joyed welcoming her spiritually * @Kazmarez howled happily, rejoicing for now the little bundle of fluff was now theirs officially as a daughter in the eyes of all wolves.
