In the world of Antichthon Dragons fly, and unicorns prance.
It's a world of magic, fluid and vast. Counter Earth, So similar to our own...but not.
Here man is uncommon and dwell together in small settlements.
Here, elves, dinosaurs and myth are real, commonplace!
In Antichthon, Animals talk, think, and learn together. It's no surprise, but do expect the unexpected.
As mankind does on Earth, it does in the counter Earth. Animals fall to weapons of various kinds, any quadruped must be wary.

Come down to a cove, not quite a Valley, at the base of the mountains. Rich and green, untainted, but for a settlement of about 50 humanoids whom live further south. A forest fire caught near them, which pushed them away, but drove out much of the larger game. Small game is abundant though, in this virgin forest, riddled with clearings.
This beautiful shallow Valley is about 150 miles across. cutting a track across the western side, close to the mountains is a large river, which runs to the base like a giant tear, collecting at the base of the mountains to a lake, shining a blue wonder. The hills at the base of the mountain are large, and before the land settled itself volcanic activity caused many natural caverns to form, some of which are interconnected by tunnels. There are three tunnels that lead out away from the main collection, one only small animals, perhaps the size of a fox could get through, and another is blocked by rock fall. It leads under the river. The last, large enough for two wolves atop one another to walk, leads out to a rock formation in middle land, marked by a clearing and a young cherry tree, not yet baring fruit.
The rest, not large hills, but not plains, is rolling forest covered hill. Oak, walnut, Hickory, and Maple are the main trees found there. Pine, poplar and Cherry woods intermingle, but are not as present. Where the Fire had consumed new Birch, Beech and Pines are springing up. The young trees are no more than 2 feet high right now. Ground Cover is still struggling to come up.
Common ground and fruit bearing plants are wild strawberries, Queen Ann's Lace root, cattail tubers at the edges of the lake, Huckleberries in the high hills, black and raspberry, Young tart cherries and small sweet apples, a random small grove of apricot trees from birds eating fruit.

This is the land Cross Roads has come to populate!

Crossroads land was not always populated by wolves however. It was full of cougar, bobcat, bear, moose and game. A few wolves who had no home banded together and in their strength and will they chased away many large predators. Together they came, and though each was from another land, another life, another rule...they became one.
Each of the wolves, but ten all told, expressed their tales. Two young pairs searching for a home. One young female saw how they were, and how they worked together. She confided to her mate what she believed and he addressed the older ones.
"From across each track of land we've come here. From many different paths we've trod, but here together we now stand. We should call ourselves Cross Roads, and take in any, like ourselves. Everyone deserves chance, peace, and friendly faces to call home."
A few older ones were not sure, and stated that there would be those who turned away, or found them fools. The younger were not disheartened, and said that each must choose how they will stride.
None of the elders of that groups, which there were three of them, between the ages of 7-9 wished to rule this new land, because much still needed done to take it as their territory. The young pair who suggested it, rose to the challenge and took the older mated pair as Betas. The last young couple became Gamas. The last four were members of the pack, as they chose to be. They knew that the age old pack, across the River, would not like them there as a clan.
Slowly, the young pack built it's empire and grew. A few other wolves, loners all joined the growing pack.
Their Rivals did resent them, in heir newness, their naive nature, their open kindness. Sure it would break them down before long. They were strong, generations strong and valued knowledge of war and land. They would send splinters to heckle Cross Roads, but as the new pack grew the attacks became less and less.
Now, as the old Alphas drew to twilight years, and were soon to pass a youth who had joined them near the beginning, named Tris, stepped into the role of Alpha Female.
Together, with her Mate, Cross roads will grow and flourish, even with dangers that lurk, and enemies threaten. With the fire having chased away large game, the pack hunting together, thus some community time, was lost. This must be made up, for the pack to stay as one.

Tris bows to you, bottle green eyes closing "Welcome friend! I hope you will find safety with our family, we can be odd, we have our faults, but we are one."

NAME: Kizzy Volk Nicknamed: Dizzy Kizzy
GENDER: Female.
SPECIES: Russian Wolf
AGE: 4

APPEARANCE: Kizzy is about 4'3 tall, and 4'5 long not including her two foot tail. Much of her undercoat is a cinnamon red-brown, with the overcoat being the darker brown color. Her mane is blond with cinnamon swirls through it. A distinctive light gray rainbow shape stamps her back right leg. Otherwise, the lower half of her face is white which reaches down to her chest. Eyes of such a light blue they almost appear white try to dodge your gaze.

ABILITIES: She is not without her own ability, Kizzy proves adept at burrowing, able to dig a small living space for one comfortably in about a half hour.

PERSONALITY: Dizzy Kizzy is a wolven Cuckoo, rather slick and adaptable, but one to shirk actual work on a daily basis. She is not without doing jobs, but tends to find ways around them, or convince others to help her.
She's a dependent with the ability to work alone until she can find someone to cling to. She'll mold herself in some ways to fit what she thinks you may want.
In a normal setting, once things have settled down, she does not keep thoughts or secrets. It's hard for her in the beginning. She blurts out anything, risk of insulting is a hazard.

HISTORY: Kizzy comes from a pack of wolves so like the birds in behavior the name of the loose pack was Cuclio. While they did raise some of their youth, to an extent, they taught them to be splinters, and to mix and become one of the others. A passive invasion of sorts. Kizzy was one of the young pups from home to contract Distemper, which has a possibility of killing it's host. A Fortunate survivor it's left her...awkward. Her personality as you know it is so fluid because of the neurological damage.
She's been wandering since, picking through packs for a strong one.

Other: Kizzy is not picky about who she take as a love, as long as in the end she can bring more Volk along. Since being with another female may make things hard to reproduce she's hopeful of finding one who may like the bizarre ideas that float through her mind.
The recovery from Distemper did not leave Kizzy whole, at random times she may go into seizure, and has a few tics: chewing, as in the motion of chewing, which sometimes tears her lips. and Muscle jerks in her front left paw.
