The River Twine tribe's wolfpack is descended from wolves who came with Wolfsister when she led her group back to the area to settle. These wolves have at least some elf-blood in them, and although they are always primarily wolfish in outlook and behavior, the occasional "throwback" is born who is still wolf-shaped but who has a greater affinity for the elves than for the wolf-pack.

These partially elf-blooded wolves are more wolf than not, with the same appearance and behaviors as natural wolves. Their kinship and empathic bonds with the elves leads to a cooperative arrangement – but the wolves also tend to regard the elves as "odd" wolves. Elves are smaller and weaker, and have many strange un-wolflike behaviors. The wolves tolerate this and even respect and defer in some cases to the elves' behavioral choices; but in other cases the wolves simply treat the elves according to wolf norms.

== RTH 2509 Wolf Pack ==

(photos used by permission of Monty Sloan/[http://www.wolfphotography.com/ Wolf Park]; other photos as noted.)

The individual rankings of wolves within the pack is something that is in regular flux.  A high ranking wolf will always lord it over a mid- or low-ranking wolf, but among high, mid, and low ranked wolves, it is often difficult for even the elves to tell what a linear hierarchy might be from day to day or week to week.  What’s more important to understand are the roles played within the pack.  The River Twine wolf pack usually numbers between 30 and 40 wolves at a time -- so not all of them will play the role of primary hunters.  Some wolves perform more of a “guardian” role by ranging the territory, and the lowest play a “home guard/babysitter” role as the primary guardians of the Holt proper.

It is important for club members to understand that a wolf’s role within the pack does not always match their rider’s role within the tribe.  Wolves do not exist at a rider’s beck and call.  A wolf who is high-ranked, but who’s rider is not primarily a hunter, will generally be away hunting while his/her elf friend is back at the Holt fishing or crafting.  Likewise, some of our tribe’s primary elven hunters can find themselves bonded with low-ranking wolves who are only grudgingly tolerated by their high ranked packmates.  Elves who are bonded to mid-ranked wolves may find their wolf-friends off for days at a time, patrolling the woods and borders of the Holt’s territory with other mid-ranked wolves.

== Alpha Pair (the Chief and Chieftess-wolf) ==

The Alphas are the leading male and female of the pack. The Alphas are the only breeding pair in the pack.  The current Alpha wolves of the pack are:

|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_wasp.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Wasp'''  (born RTH 2484/bonded to Blacksnake).  Alpha male.  Aggressive, crafty, a brawler when necessary (and smart enough not for it to be necessary).	 Littermate of Icemane..
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_whirl.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Whirl'''  (born RTH 2489/bonded to Windburn).  Alpha female. Pushy, opinionated, stubborn, thick-headed. An extremely fast wolf, she lives up to name often, dashing from place to place. Littermate of Longtooth, Mooncrier and Thief.
|}

== Beta Wolves ==

Beta wolves are the top ranked wolves within the Pack beneath the Alphas.  These are individual wolves who are the likely heirs to the Alphas (but until the dust settles, don’t place your bets!)

{| border="0" cellpadding="2"
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_halfmoon.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Halfmoon''' (born RTH 2490/bonded to Evervale).  Beta male  Halfmoon has always been an ambitious and determined wolf. . As he matured, he challenged every wolf higher than him as soon as he felt he was strong enough. Relatively recently, killed Icestalker in another status fight, and is now the sole male in the beta position... but is aware of challenges from Beauty. Littermate of Bonetrail and Briarfoot.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_starlight.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Starlight''' (RTH 2486/bonded to Kestrel). Beta female.  A regal wolf, with a strong sense of self and of her place in the world.  Benign as long as you show throat, but will wallop any lower-ranked wolf who shows a hint of challenge.  Littermate of Bristlepelt.
|}

== High-Ranked Wolves ==

The high-ranked wolves are the primary hunters of the pack. They run at the front of the pack; after the Alphas and Betas they pick the choicest parts of a kill, and they are the most likely to become Alpha (after a previous Alpha's death, or through challenge).   High ranked wolves are generally the most mature and intelligent hunters.   Young wolves usually have some learning to do and must spend some time to spend in lower ranking positions before joining the high ranked hunters.

|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_beauty.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Beauty''' (RTH 2491/bonded to Notch). High-ranked male.  Grizzled, big, ugly and powerful animal.  Very scarred from a number of close scrapes: has only a stub of a tail, no left eye (empty socket covered with eye patch), most of his right ear is ragged and missing; left ear has torn tendons and is floppy. Overgrown left incisor tooth. Roguish old cuss, with a taste for brawls and a love for chasing anything that moves. Beauty is a clever, cunning wolf; has an ugly temper and gets very vicious when pissed. Reckless, but good-natured  otherwise. Friendly to most elves, but those he dislikes have scars to show for it.  Has a special "relationship" with Quick Fang – where his rider adores teasing Quick Fang and getting her to chase him, Beauty simply sees her as another wolf, one who's a threat to his own place in the pack.  Will routinely shove her around when the chance arises, equally quick to show his teeth and bite.  Only the fact that Quick Fang's own wolf-friend is higher in rank and returns the animosity keeps any semblance of peace.  Littermate of Duskgreeter.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_duskgreeter.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Duskgreeter'''  (RTH 2491/bonded to Farscout).  High-ranked male. A keen hunter and clever fighter, tended to be friendly toward elven hunters and allowed them to ride him during a hunt, if their own wolf-friends were not present.  Particularly friendly with True Edge, although it was not a true wolf-bond.  Eventually bonded with Farscout, after Flea switched her bond to Farscout's daughter Copper. Littermate of Beauty.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_growler.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Growler'''  (RTH 2488/bonded to Quick Fang).  High-ranked male.  Growler lives up to his name – he vocalizes a lot, often in a deep-throated, guttural moan that he uses to get attention, than as an actual growl. Not overly serious, except when it comes to hunting; otherwise he's playful and thinks his elf-bond can be too serious. He hates bees, and slap-tails annoy him to no end. Because of Quick Fang's deep resentment towards quillrats, Growler has developed one for them too; he also  growls whenever Chicory, Notch, or Starskimmer come within his vicinity.  Littermate of Sleuth, Soot and Weasel.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_longtooth.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Longtooth''' (RTH 2489/bonded to One-Leg).  High-ranked male.  An aggressive, temperamental and ambitious wolf who is always quick to chastise animals of lower rank as well as snatch opportunities to rise in the social order.	He’s also generally willing to carry riders other than his own during a hunt – just so long as you ask respectfully.  Littermate of Mooncrier, Thief and Whirl, and is still close to Mooncrier; has supported her remaining with the pack until she finally bonded with Honey.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_mooncrier.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Mooncrier'''  (RTH 2489/bonded to Honey). High-ranked female.  A stubborn, determined creature, tends to be aloof, was reluctant for a long time to allow any elf to ride her.  Surprised many when Honey's persistence paid off, and Mooncrier bonded with her.  Closest to her littermate Longtooth, and used to depend in part on his support to remain with the River Twine pack; also littermate of Thief and Whirl. 
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_muddypaws.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Muddypaws'''  (RTH 2498/bonded to Crackle).  High-ranked male.  Muddypaws is canny and sophisticated, the kind of wolf who'd find a way to get the meat out without springing the trap, but he is usually too occupied with being either a worrying guardian or a long-suffering toy for that intelligence to show much. He hates baths almost as much as Crackle does. Littermate of Tenor.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_patchface.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Patchface''' (RTH 2496/unbonded) High-ranked male. Named for the odd scattering of brown in his gray fur. Incredibly stupid and, to compensate, lightning-quick. Has grown massive upon reaching his full size, and is making up for past insults by bullying all his new underlings.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_silverbite.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Silverbite'''  (RTH 2492/bonded to Nightstorm)  High-ranked female.  Aloof but devoted to her elf-bond.  A bit of a diva.  Littermate of Charm and Lightjaw.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_thief.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Thief'''  (RTH 2489/bonded to Thornbow). High-ranked male. Thief is aggressive when it comes to moving in rank, loves stealing fish from the fisher traps, and fears the sound of storms. His wide-set eyes give him a permanently confused look that he uses to the best of his ability, notably more scheming and cunning than his bond.  Littermates of Longtooth, Mooncrier and Whirl.
|}

=Mid-Ranked Wolves=

While they sometimes join the hunt, wolves of the middle rank tend to be guards of the territory. They also enjoy the company of gatherers, trappers and those that scout. To them it shows the tribe contributing to the protection of the territories (and the elves have protection while doing their duties).   

Note:  mid-ranked wolves listed in alphabetical order, not by hierarchal ranking.


{| border="0" cellpadding="2"
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_autumnleaf.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Autumnleaf''' (RTH 2493/bonded to Fadestar) Mid-ranked female. A particularly reddish coat marks her out; beautiful, glossy and very sneaky, but a bit of a loner, thus not higher in rank. Despises fighting and for a long time had never been ridden, as she always escaped when anyone tried.  Eventually sought out a bond with Fadestar.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_bonechase.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Bonetrail'''  (RTH 2490/bonded to Pathmark) Mid-ranked male.  An average wolf – comfortable with his position in the pack and has just enough ambition to keep it for now, doesn't have the drive to rise any further.  Likes his creature comforts – ample food, a good scratch on the butt, and a patch of warm sunlight to snooze in.  Littermate of Brairfoot and Halfmoon.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_brairfoot.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Briarfoot'''  (RTH 2490/bonded to Foxtail)	Mid-ranked female. Curious to a fault, Briarfoot always seems to be getting her snout into trouble! Any noise or smell is worth investigating! A fearless climber (into both trees and dens), and has an eternally puppyish attitude. Very socially involved, often jumps into elvish matters by adding her voice (in yips and yowls) to Foxtail's when her rider is arguing a point.  Littermate of Bonetrail and Halfmoon.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_bristlepelt.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Bristlepelt ''' (RTH 2486/bonded to Rainpace).  Mid-ranked female. Bristlepelt is gray-white with a thick bushy tail giving her her name. Very mellow around elves, calmly authoritative in the wolf pack, and a devout howler at the moon.  Littermate of Starlight.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_browncoat.jpg]]
|width="600pt"| '''Browncoat'''  (RTH 2500/bonded to Newt). Mid-ranked male. Browncoat has matured into an average-sized wolf with obvious intelligence and cunning.  
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_icemane.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Icemane'''  (born RTH 2484/bonded to Suddendusk).  Mid-ranked female.  More cunning than she is strong, Icemane is constantly on the lookout for opportunities to advance her standing in the pack.  Fully grown, however, she knows she is not going to get bigger or stronger, and is more or less content with her rank, but she still keeps her eyes out for weaknesses in others that she can exploit.  She is good at stalking and harrying, but poor at outright attacking.  She earned her name for her fur.  Littermate of Wasp.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_murkfur.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Murkfur''' (RTH 2499/unbonded) Mid-ranked male. Dark in coloring and spirit, a mean, runty thing who survived only because he would do literally anything for food.  Feels incredibly self-important when ridden, and can prove to be a pest when trying to encourage a walking elf to get on his back.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_peakrunner.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Peakrunner'''  (RTH 2494/bonded to Goldspice)  Mid-ranked male.  Peakrunner is calm and well-tempered, but a very fast runner, also very vocal, even when he is sleeping. 
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_rambler.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Rambler''' (RTH 2501/Lonshot) Mid-ranked female. A wolf born outside the pack, Rambler has worked her way in. She is a calm, calculating wolf, always on the look out for something that will give her an advantage. She fiercely guards her own place in the pack but is quick to submit to the higher ranks.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_redbrush.png]]
|width="600pt"| '''Redbrush'''  (RTH 2501/bonded to Brightwood). Mid-ranked female.  Littermate of Rooter. From the moments she opened her eyes, Redbrush has proven to be an aloof, self-confident, and determined young she-wolf who is likely to rise among the hierarchy of the pack as she matures.  Named for her unusually reddish color. Bonded with Brightwood.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_sleuth.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Sleuth''' (RTH 2488/bonded to Chicory).  Mid-ranked female.  Mischievous, clever, good runner, prefers to patrol the pack's territory, over spending time lazing by the ponds her elf-friend frequents; has learned not to snap up scurrying or hopping things because then her elf-friend will sulk. Loves to snap at and chase Preservers.  Littermate of Growler, Soot and Weasel.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_slychase.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Slychase'''  (RTH 2497/bonded to Snowfall)  Mid-ranked male.  Slychase is a clever, sometimes   overenthusiastic young wolf who is quickly distracted. He is determined to chase things – bugs, small game, weapons thrown/shot.  As a result, the high-ranked wolves will not allow him to join his rider during pack hunts.  Instead, he might make a place for himself someday in the ranks of the mid-ranked wolves.  He enjoys his connection with Snowfall, but if he is not needed he can be away from his elf bond for several days without being missed.  Littermate of Splash.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_splash.gif]]
|width="600pt"|'''Splash''' (RTH 2497/bonded to Otter).  Mid-ranked female. Splash is a very playful wolf. She enjoys chasing small game, but not necessarily catching it. But she is a water-loving wolfie and is an excellent match for Otter. She has even learned to catch fish on her own in shallow waters by snatching them with her teeth. Splash likes to patrol the banks of the rivers and streams that Otter plays in but gets thoroughly annoyed by slap-tails because they scare the fish away, and antagonize her.  Littermate of Slychase.

= Low-Ranked Wolves =

Low ranked wolves are the guardians of the denning area and protectors of any young pups.  These are the wolves who are the daily guardians of the Holt proper.

{| border="0" cellpadding="2"
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_crowsong.jpg]]
|width="600pt"| '''Crowsong''' (RTH 2504 out of Charm/bonded to Cloudfern) Low-ranked male. Litter mate of Thumper. An eager and determined wolf, Crowsong is always ready to get in the thick of things. If he can do it with an elf on his back, so much the better.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_flea.jpg]]
|width="600pt"| '''Flea'''  (RTH 2500/bonded to Copper). Low-ranked female.  Not gifted with the burden of intelligence, Flea is an easy-going creature who loves her comforts.  What she lacks in brains she makes up for in speed and endurance. Started out bonded with Farscout, which many viewed as a mismatch.  Growing up close with his daughter Copper, as her self-appointed protector, Flea eventually switched her bond to Copper (in 2509). Littermate of Browncoat and Flysnap.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_fumble.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Fumble''' (RTH 2505/bonded to Dreamflight) Low-ranked female.  (Picture (c) Oliver Matla, [http://www.lupinity.com Lupinity!], [http://lupinicious.deviantart.com/gallery/?catpath=/&offset=24#/d2qsaq0 Click here] to see original image; used with permission.)
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_pounce.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Pounce''' (RTH 2503/unbonded) Low-ranked female. Pounce is scrappy, happy, and eager. She loves to play rough-and-tumble with other wolves her rank. Very gentle with elf cubs.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:New_sky_thumb.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Sky''' (RTH 2483/bonded to Willow) Low-ranked female. Clever and almost contemplative, usually found sitting in shaded places and staring, thinking deep thoughts known only to her. A delicate mount, and happy to carry cubs just learning to ride.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_sunsoak.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Sunsoak''' (RTH 2505/unbonded) Low-ranked male. Littermate of Fumble. Sunsoak is a sweet-tempered, lazy wolf who enjoys nothing better than a long snooze in the sun and a thorough scratching.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_tenor.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Tenor'''(RTH 2498/bonded to Starskimmer). Low-ranked male.  Particularly cowardly, likes to cubsit and is always eager to join in a howl.  Littermate of Muddypaws.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_thumper.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Thumper''' (RTH 2504 out of Charm/bonded to Windsong) Low-ranked female. Littermate of Crowsong. Thumper is an energetic wolf with a care-free, almost reckless attitude. She thumps the ground with her tail a lot, thus earning her name.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_windswift.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Windswift''' (RTH 2506/unbonded) Low-ranked female. A fast runner, Windswift is a terror to the rabbits and other small animals. She will eat anything, including stray leathers left unattended. She is quite affectionate and is always looking for attention from the elves.
|}

= Omega Wolves =
The omega wolves are the lowest-ranked of the low.  They are often the babysitters and are the ones who teach the pups skills and social behaviors. Because they are lowest ranked they eat last (or not at all during lean times) and have no rights. Since they rely on the goodwill of the pack, they also tend to initiate playing. 

{| border="0" cellpadding="2"
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_charm.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Charm''' (RTH 2492/bonded to True Edge). Omega-ranked female.  Charm doesn’t mind being omega very much.  Though she doesn't like being harassed by the rest of the pack, she seems to be undisturbed by it at most times. She acts more dainty then timid around other pack members. Like all wolves she likes her bond but generally only seeks him out besides the hunt, after having been put in her place and knowing it's probably better to stay away for a while. She's just a sweetheart who is just a little bit dense. In 2504, while out on a long-range scouting trip with True Edge, she managed to get bred by a stranger-wolf from outside the pack.  This caused some strife within the tribe's pack -- Whirl harassed Charm, and when the litter was born, Whirl took it over.	Littermate of Lightjaw and Silverbite.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_rooter.jpg]]
|width="600pt"| '''Rooter''' (RTH 2501/bonded to Beetle). Omega-ranked female.  Littermate of Redbrush.  A throwback, Rooter enjoys the company of elves more than other wolves, and has proven herself a sharper mind at wolf-sending than is common.  Rooter's not fearless, but she is quick and active. She is also unusually clever and curious. 
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_weasel.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Weasel''' (RTH 2488/bonded to Moss).  Omega-ranked male.  Named for his fondness of stoats as snack food as well as his sly, crafty temperament, Weasel is a throwback; greatly prefers the company of elves to that of the Pack. Not that it seems to bother him; he much prefers stealing dreamberries from Moss (or pretty much whatever he fancies from anyone else who isn't paying attention).  Littermate of Growler, Sleuth and Soot.
|}

= Cubs, Yearlings, and Second Years =

Roly-poly pups are generally considered rankless, but after their first winter, they are considered yearlings – and begin to risk being chased out of the pack.  Yearlings who fail to bond to an elf-friend by the beginning of their second winter seldom remain with the pack.  Unless they prove unusually clever or remarkably good as a hunter, these young wolves are driven out of the Holt by their elders, and the ones who are the most ambitious leave on their own to carve their own way in the world, outside of the Holt’s territory.


[[Litters from 2500 - present]]

Go to the page above to see the numbers of cubs in each litter from 2500 to the present, along with any other notable information about cubs in those litters (some of which is repeated here).  The few most-recent litters are listed below.


'''SECOND YEARS (2508 litter):'''

Low-ranking in general, these wolves are in transition.  If they have survived their first year, but are still unbonded, this is the year in which they and the pack will determine whether they stay around, or are run off by the pack, or depart on their own to try to found a pack elsewhere.  


{| border="0" cellpadding="2"
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_brindlefur.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Brindlefur''' (RTH 2508, unbonded) Female second-year. Not a very assertive wolf so far, but keeps up with her peers. A very fast runner in straight lines, but hasn't yet become very maneuverable or agile.
|-
|width="150pt"|no picture
|width="600pt"|(RTH 2508) Female second-year. (Died in 2509.)
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_frostback.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Frostback''' (RTH 2508/reserved) Male second-year. Big, sturdy wolf with a very good nature.  Tends to be friendly and social, playful and hard-working.
|-
|width="150pt"|no picture
|width="600pt"|(RTH 2508) Male second-year. (Died or run off in early 2510.)
|}


'''YEARLINGS (2509 litter):'''

Low-ranking in general, these still-maturing wolves may be old enough to be bonded to an elf and carry a rider, but they are still in the process of learning the ropes.  They are expected to follow the social rules of the pack, and they learn a great deal from their pack elders about hunting and behavior.  Wolves of this age who remain unbonded and who did not die in their first year are still at increased risk of mortality, because of their lack of experience.

{| border="0" cellpadding="2"
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_fireweed.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Fireweed''' (RTH 2509, unbonded) Female yearling. Alert and eager, she shows a good aptitude for social cues and for hunting.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_softjoy.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Softjoy''' (RTH 2509/bonded to Rill) Female yearling. Littermate of Longhowl. Soft Joy is very active and enjoys playing with anyone available. She is possessive toward Rill but may wander off when she thinks she isn't getting enough attention.
|-
|width="150pt"|[[Image:Thumb_wolfpix_longhowl.jpg]]
|width="600pt"|'''Longhowl''' (RTH 2509/bonded to Cinder) Male yearling. Littermate of Softjoy. A quiet pup, but playful and unafraid, Longhowl is much like his elf-friend. However, even as a young pup, Longhowl shows enough aggression to give the impression that, when the time comes, he's going to start moving his way up the pack.
