[18:38] * @Saigh watched as the wolves seemed to decend out of the woodwork, settling into place in the circle. With all the wolves gathered, it was easy to have missed Sil's scent on the wind, as she was caught up in the excitement of the meeting to be held. Pleased with the turnout she dipped her muzzle down to nuzzle her adopted daughter, greeting Kyrie with a loving press of her nose on the young wolfs head before turning to the others and barking to get their attention. The meeting has begun. [18:40] <@Saigh> The meeting will begin with Out of Character Discussion. We will cover topics one at a time and after each discussion topic we will ask for any questions/comments/concerns. Please refrain from using OOC scripts at this time and we ask that Rp be haulted from now until the IC portion resumes. As topics are posted, it is required that you either type X to indicate you have something to say or ask or - to indicate you are ready to move on. After Discussion, we will move into IC stuff, you may rp amongst yourselves during this time but keep it to a minimum and remember to cheer on your fellow members. Please stay on topic, if there is anything we do not cover, we will have an open discussion at the end of the OOC portion of the meeting. Lets begin [18:41] <@Saigh> First off, thank you to everyone who showed up tonight and for being so patient as we waited for the others. Its much appreciated. Second, as most of you know I got a new phone which means I lost all my numbers. I send out text message reminders of pack events and announcements to those who wish to recieve it.

[18:46] <@Kazmarez> We addressed this at the first meeting but I don't think we were clear. Everyone. Needs. To. RP. With. Everyone. Seriously guys, we understand you make freinds and love interests but you are still a member of a PACK and everyone is worthy of your attention. That doesnt mean you cant EVER rp with each other, just that you cant RP with each other 100% of the time. We mentioned it subtly before, ...cut [18:46] <@Kazmarez> contin... but perhaps some do not realize they are doing it. Going forward if it is noted that you are an offender of rping in cliques, you will notified via PM by a council member. If this happens, please do not get upset over it. We are not telling you your a bad rp-er or anything, just trying to get more diversity among the pack so that we build the ties as a family rather then individual groups of ...cut [18:46] <@Kazmarez> contin... lovers or friends. ...end [18:46] <@Kazmarez> Questions/Comments/Concerns type X Accept/Understand type - [18:47] <%Kaine> - [18:47] <+Ammorez> - [18:47] - [18:47] <%Tak`Tik> - [18:49] <@Saigh> We are quickly coming up on the holidays, as such we want to express and stress the fact that there will be slow times between now and new years. They will happen. Sometimes it will be a couple days, other times it may be a couple weeks. We will try to keep things moving with hunts and mini plots but the pack will experiance some downtime during the holidays, this goes for everywolf, including the council. Please remember that the council members do have lives outside of the rp to attend to and to use all your resources. If Myself or Kazmarez is not on, then please feel free to bring any questions comments or concerns to Haezani, Timur or Kyrie. The council is a team and we work together to better serve the pack. Just because we arent -here- doesnt mean we are not availible to you. I am in the process of adding a contact page for the website which will provide you with contact methods ranging from texting, skype, facebook, deviantart, emails ect for each of the council members. There is never a reason to feel as if you cannot get ahold of us.

It is no longer an optional rank and will only be given to those who fall within its qualifications. The updated definition of sikla is "This rank belongs to those wolves who have passed their assessment but still require some improvement in some aspect - be it Attendance, roleplay quality ect or for those repeating assessment after leaving or being repremended or those who are on the verge of removal due to inactivity."

[19:09] * @Saigh sat at the head of the circle, propped up against her court, shoulder to shoulder as she leaned into him affectionatly while still remaining upright and alert. Her ears twitched slightly upon her silver cranium as she cast her striking blue-grey hues out over the landscape and onto the wolves who surrounded her, making up their family. Whe she spoke, her voice was kind though held an element of authority to it and though she barely raised her voice, it still seemed to echo out among the gathering. Everywolf walks their own path. For some that path leads them here to Kladd`atir and for others, it leads them away. Korrah has the pack to follow her own path. It would be evidant that this news was hard for Saigh. Korrah being her last connection to her mother but she accepted the older females decision. But even as one leaves, others find their path end here with us. Tonight, Id like to call Ammorez, Kelais and Gareth to stand befoere the pack. Each of you have served your time as assessments. You have gotten to know us, our pack our members and our ways and its come time for you to make your decision. Do you wish to become a member of Kladd`atir, to accept everywolf in this circle as family defined by a force greater then blood or bone, but instead by spirit? [19:09] * @Kyrie [19:11] * +Ammo|Dinner would perk when her name is called out, along with her sister and Gareth. She smiles and slowly gets to her paws to join the alphaess up front, nodding in confirmination. Yes. Yes I would. She declared. [19:12] * +Ammorez (androirc@cfa73a7f.hsd1.wa.5aa6454b.net.hmsk) Quit (Killed (NickServ (GHOST command used by Ammo|Dinner))) [19:12] * Ammo|Dinner is now known as Ammorez [19:13] * +Gareth perked and nuzzled Slone before making his way forward. He would dip his muzzle and present himself to the Alpha's with folded ears. As he arrived, he plopped onto his rump beside Ammorez and grinned as she answered first., effectively making him a copycat. "Of course, I'd love nothing more." He stole a quick glance back at Slone. Ok..maybe there was one thing. [19:17] * +Kelais stepped forward with Ammo and Gareth, her eyes bright as she looked at Saigh and Kazmrez. "Yes, I would," she said gravely. [19:21] * Sil slowly inches closer to the drop, noticing it's not dangerously steep, but still probably slick. While still studying the drop, he forgot to stop his paws from inching any closer, and they soon slip off the edge. He scrambles to try and keep his balance, but only hurts his chances of not falling, and promptly slides forward. His back paws flail behind him as he tries to get a grip on the grass, but to no avail, and he starts sliding down th [19:21] * Sil e falls, but still quietly. That is, until he notices a big rock right in front of him, tall enough to trip him up, but not tall enough to stop him or give him any cover. Just his luck. He trips over the rock, unable to stop himself from doing so, and flips forward, onto his back, sliding down the falls. [19:22] * @Saigh nods as each wolf responds, her salt and pepper tail flicking enthusiastically at her paws. When each wolf had said their piece she nodded. Welcome then, Gareth, Ammorez and Kelais, packmates of Kladd`atir she boasted, raising her lupine cranium skyward and letting her baying alto ring out in celebration for the new members and encouraging the others to join in. [19:22] * Saigh sets mode: +h Gareth [19:22] * Saigh sets mode: +h Kelais [19:22] * Saigh sets mode: +h Ammorez [19:23] * %Serenia smiles and woofs happily for the bunch. [19:23] * %Tak`Tik howls for his new packmates [19:24] * %Kaine would smile and howl for the new pack members [19:24] * Slone lets out a small howl for the three, smiling warmly at them. [19:24] * @Kazmarez howls out for the new members happily in celebration of their completion of assessment and stepping forward into their place among them [19:25] * @Kyrie churrs and coos for the new family members! [19:25] * %Gareth howls for Ammo and Kelais [19:25] * %Kelais is confused and starts howling and then stops when Ammo and Gareth don't howl. [19:25] -> *chanserv* access #wolfhollow add Kelais 5 [19:25] -> *chanserv* access #wolfhollow add gareth 5 [19:25] -> *chanserv* access #wolfhollow add Ammorez 5 [19:26] <%Kelais> ((Aw snap he did howl! Scratch that last bit then)) [19:27] * @Kazmarez smiled to the new members of their family and swayed his tail gently, nodding as they were dismissed back to the circle. Kaz then turned look at the pack as well as others among that were not yet part of their family.* "And yet others have just begun to find their path among us, to walk with us for the very first time. Now is the time we would like to extend an offer to anyone..." *kaz ...cut [19:27] <@Kazmarez> contin... coughs* "...like one of our recent lovebirds..." *he coughs again and grins* "... and anyone else who would like to become an assessment to the pack. Please step forward at this time" ...end [19:28] <%Gareth> ((<.<)) [19:28] (pfft..) [19:29] * Sil curls up as he notices a longer drop, then falls right in, making a loud sploosh and effectively blowing his cover. [19:30] * Slone cleared her throat slightly, noting how Kaz spoke. Rising to her paws, she nuzzled Gareth for a bit of confidence, and of course, to prove his point. She stepped forward and gazed at Kaz and Saigh, doing her best not to shake if front of the others. [19:31] * Zani|Mobile (Haezani@6ca5f064.6ca5f05e.174.141.imsk) has joined #wolfhollow [19:31] (*in) [19:32] * Sil emerges from the water, pulling himself out of the water and on to the surface, dripping. He walks over to the group of wolves, his head low, ears filled with water, so not noticing how close he was to them until he looks up and sees them right there. His ears perk up, and he looks around at them all. [19:33] * %Tak`Tik jumps up at the sound of the splash, immediately on high alert for a rogue raid since all of the known wolves were already gathered, but calms quickly when a lone very wet wolf walks right up to them all [19:34] * %Serenia nuzzles Takoda to calm him with a slight giggle [19:36] * Sil looks at them for a moment more, then shakes off, careful not to let anyone else get wet, then flattens his ears to clear them of water, then perks them back up, looking at everyone kind of awkwardly. "Hello..." looks up at Kaz, remembering what he had heard prior to getting splooshed. "I, uh, heard there was an invitation to join and I, uh, couldn't contain my excitement." he smiles nervously, hoping his introduction wasn't too awful intru [19:36] * Sil sive. [19:37] * %Ammorez perks towards Tak's jump and smirks a bit before noting why he had jumped in the first place. She had caught the wolfs scent a bit ago, but didn't think to make a big deal about it. Though its enterance was rather interesting and the tatic of it was well planned out, had it been more than one rouge wolf, the pack would've been taken seized easily. With that, she only smiled and [19:37] * %Ammorez watched him join the Alpha male in front of them silently. [19:38] * @Saigh perked at the sound of a splash and narrowed her chrome gaze, concern evidant on her face as a soggy brute made an appearance, Her head tilted, wondering if anyone knew who this wolf was. She knew the coming cold was drawing many lone wolves forward to seek the refuge of a pack setting. She smireked at the wolf's words and chuckled I see. Well the invitation is open to all. During this time of assessment you will get to know the pack as a whole. Its members, its ways as we will get to know you. Do you accept this period of assessment? she asked with a tilt of her head. [19:41] * Slone smiled and nodded her head as she replied, "I do, gladly." [19:42] * Zani (Haezani@4f19fd34.f68965e8.net.hmsk) has joined #wolfhollow [19:42] * Sil looks silently at Saigh for a moment, rather caught off guard by the fact that they didn't just rip him to little fuzzy bits for jumping, or rather falling, in on them like that. After a second of silence, he notices that he's standing there awkwardly, and rushes a "yes", then relaxes a little, seemingly coming to, and isn't exaclty sure what it is he just said, but being still alive, it couldn't have been anything to awful. [19:46] * Zani|Mobile (Haezani@6ca5f064.6ca5f05e.174.141.imsk) Quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) [19:48] * @Saigh smiled to Slone and nodded kindly to the new wolf. Then so your assessment shall begin. she said raising herhead in celebration, sending her baying alto to the stars as she wishes the duo luck. Her eyes settled on the new wolf and she cleared her throat. Kaine, will you please accopmany our new friend back to place in the circle and assist him as needed. she said, speaking to the packs Mentor. It was voiced as a question though it was clearly an order. Knowing the new wolf would be well tended to she looked to Slone You stay here Slone she said as she looked out over the circle of wolves and summoned Gareth forth. When he arrived she would speak clearly The two of you have expressed interest in furthering your relationship and exploring what more it might be. Courtship is a time of growth and of leanring more about one another on a deeper, more intimate level that exceeds friendship. Because you are not both full members of the pack your courtship will be extended to ensure the bond will continue to flourish. Do you accept these terms of courtship? [19:49] -> *chanserv* access #wolfhollow add Ammorez 4 [19:49] -> *chanserv* access #wolfhollow add Gareth 4 [19:50] -> *chanserv* access #wolfhollow add Kelais 4 [19:50] * %Kaine perked his ears to the Alpha calling his name and upon hearing her question/order, the male nodded and would walk up to Sil with a smile. "Come with me." With that said, he would move back to the circle, making sure the brute had room to sit beside him before bowing his head in respect, "Welcome to the territory." [19:51] * Slone smiles at Gareth as he makes his way over, nuzzling him as he arrives. A smile spread across her muzzle, her tassle swaying behind her wildly. She nodded at Saigh, not sure if she could form words. [19:52] * %Gareth grined and nodded, his own tail wagging just as furiosuly and collidng with SLone's on several occassions. He turned to plant a ksis on Slone's muzzle, then nodded, "Of course I do!" [19:53] * Sil looks at Kaine, turning around and sitting next to the wolf. "Thanks. Sorry if I intruded on anything." he says quietly, so he wouldn't disturb anyone, again. [19:54] * @Saigh smiled at the duo as they accepted the terms of their courtship. 14Then I wish you both the best of luck and hope your courtship flourishes she said as she lifted her head to sing aloud for the two, her tail wagging as she encouraged the others to do the same. [19:54] * %Kelais howls for the new happy couple. [19:54] * %Tak`Tik adds his voice to the chorus for the two loverfluffs [19:55] * %Kaine smiles and lets out a howl for the new courts. [19:55] * %Gareth nuzzles his court and murrs happily at her [19:55] * %Ammorez howls for the new courts. [19:55] * Slone nuzzles her court in return, kissing his cheek happily. [19:56] * Saigh sets mode: +v Slone [19:56] * Saigh sets mode: +v Sil [19:59] * @Saigh waited until the songs died down and dismissed the pair back to the circle. Thank you everyone for coming, this concludes the second meeting of Kladd`atir! she said gleefully as she threw back her head one last time rasing her voice for the whole pack and welcomed them to join her as tehy called the meeting to a close
