Once upon a time, a great, white wolf endowed with amazing gifts took residence at the peak of the tallest mountain in Aiela so that he would be able to keep safe and guide her children. For many generations the white wolf guarded the lands well, and he was proud to be their protector, for Aiela shared her strength only with those who were strong of heart and mind. Peace prevailed...and then came the balance. One year, winter blew in early from the north like a messenger, carrying with her a warning of what was to come. A lack of prey caused bickering and fights, and many of Aiela's children simply left, fearful for their families. The white wolf could do nothing to quiet their tempers, for he too was growing anxious and hungry. For all of his gifts, he could not bring the herds back. In their place came the strange ones - wolves who soon realized the powers vested in these hills, and sought to take control of them.
Then the fires swept through. And the battles. The white wolf and his family, who had protected these lands and their inhabitants for decades, became overwhelmed by the chaos unleashed by the strangers. When they died, the chaos and the strangers went with them, and the wolves who were left - the ones who survived the war became known as the Old Ones.
you have no idea what happened here…
A cold wind howls over the deserted lands of Aiela. The young couple who founded the pack of Bandar - the last of the Old Ones - has gone, just like the short-lived fall. Where they went, no one knows. Some theorize that they journeyed on to search for more territory and settled in some other distant land. Others say that many strange and bizarre things befell them, and that they met a pitiful end. But no one really cares. The lands of Bandar and Fretta are open to be claimed once more. The Old Ones have gone, and they took their secrets and their knowledge with them.
The approaching winter has made prey difficult to find. Fights over food and territories are eminent. It times past, the strongest winters created the strongest chaos. Small quarrels were waged among packs - some within the packs themselves. No one really knows why they fought. It’s as if an old drive keeps coming back - an urge to steal and hoard the power that these lands provide. No longer are the peaceful days which once blessed of the wolves of Aiela. Now the lands belong to us.
and they come...
Cave Canem is an intermediate-advanced wolf rpg. The gameplay is quite realistic, though the premise itself is based in fantasy. CC claims its origins in 2004 from a site called Canis Major + Minor (a fantasy wolf rpg created by flutterbyfudge) which I helped run. Much of the content on this site is credited to her and the players of CMM. My goal is to bring back the fantastic atmosphere and creativity we experienced at that site, while starting out on an entirely new plotline. Hunting and pack strength is a very important aspect of the game, and I've designed it in a way which I hope will be both engaging and enjoyable for everyone involved. Will you run with us?
