Five Thousand Club
Ranks:
Each member can have two ranks; a minor rank and a major rank except prisoners who cannot have a rank. Alphas-Gammas are high rank with Shaman to lead guard being semi-high ranks.
High Ranks:
Alphas: The leaders of the pack, they are first in command and their word is final. They are the most dominate wolves in the pack and reproduce only with each other, sometimes, but always, a mated pair.
Betas: Betas step in if the alphas cannot do their work or die. They are the bodyguards and advisers to the alphas and in charge of the warriors. They work to maintain peace and order in the pack as well as have solid say in important matters. Considered enforcers of the pack laws and will not hesitate to put others in their place. Backup the alphas in superior conflict.
Deltas: The Deltas are in training to become betas though not all deltas will choose to become betas. They are in charge of the hunters/gathers and can lead hunts as well as being in charge of the guards. They back up the superiors in times of conflict. They work to maintain peace and order in the pack as well as have solid say in important matters. The Deltas may go with the alpha or betas to negotiate treaties with other packs. They handle a lot of the smaller issues and serve as backup for the superiors in times of conflict.
Gammas: The Gammas are the voice of the pack and in charge of the main body of the pack. They are the friendliest of the higher rank wolves and have training in every rank and will help out within the lower ranks as needed, considered the 'subordinates' of the higher ranks, backup superiors in times of conflict, pass stories down to the rest of the pack and are valued advisers of the alphas. Gammas are responsible for keeping the lower ranks in order.
Semi-high positions are Shaman, Lead Warrior and Lead Guard.
Shaman: They are in charge of the history of the pack, ceremonies and funerals, messengers and have the most healing knowledge. There are five Shaman in the pack.
Lead Warrior: The lead warrior is in charge of the warriors and scouts/spies. They excel in combat and often do assassinations that the alpha asks.
Lead Guard: The lead guard is in charge of the guards and lower ranks. They issue patrols and make sure the pack is functioning normally.
Middle Ranks:
These wolves are the normal members of the pack but must still show subservience and respect to a high or semi-high position.
Warriors: These are the main fighters of the pack and are trained in combat. They escort the scouts and spies when they travel. They observe for danger and keep an eye on the higher ranks. The amount of Warrior varies from pack to pack, taking the fact of the size of the pack and territory.
Guards: The guards are divided into two different ranks. There are pack guards which help the warriors in defending the pack and escort the hunters/gathers and then there are the den guards that guard the mothers and their pups, provide food for them, etc. They are responsible for leading the pack into a hunt. The amount of guards varies from pack to pack, taking the fact of the size of the pack and territory.
Hunters/Gatherers: These wolves are responsible for providing for the nourishment of the pack. They hunt and forage for food. The number of Hunters will depend on how much prey there is, territory and the size of the pack.
Scouts/Spies: These members may have been a hunter/gatherer at some point but are generally lean in build and quick minded. They might be natural loners who prefer being on their own. The scouts and spies main job is to collect information, be it from other packs, humans or others that pose a threat and assassinate anyone as needed or asked by the higher-ranks. Constantly at the border of the territories, Scout(s) are sent out to guard and report anything suspicious or that would threaten the packs well being. The canines who are sent out to investigate other packs, including rivalry packs and from time to time allies. Acting like news, they bring any news of all types. Dangers, betrayals, alliances and packs becoming rivals. Not any wolf is chosen for this task, for if they are ever figured out by the others, it could lead them to their death.
Lower Ranks:
The lower ranks must show subservience at all times to their superiors.
Subordinates: The main body of the pack, these members have training in every rank but often help the guards guard the mothers and omegas. They help out as needed within the other ranks.
Curators: These members are in charge of caring for the sick and injured of the pack as well as raising orphaned pups and caring for the mothers in the nursery. Either growing up as a Medic or taught, these wolves have a special understanding and knowledge of herbs and plants. They also help keep peace in the pack, helping with the deduction of fights among its members.
Eta: Less dominant members of the pack, not timid enough to be omegas. They help the Curators in the nursery and patrol/hunt as needed.
Omegas: At the bottom of the system, Omegas are the wolves with little to no power. The omegas are the pups, timid members or members who fail their training, and elders. They do all the labor and chores around the pack with the prisoners.
Prisoners: These are wolves who have betrayed the pack or captured from other packs. They help the omegas do labor and chores.
