Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dance of the Alpha's: A literal, all out brawl of adults. The pack decides a date and place, always during full moon, and the pack travels to the location as one. The un-eligible (Elderly, Injured, Too Young) form a circle and the Visionary recites the written law. When it reaches the appointed time the chosen begin the dance. Fighting until only one is standing. The point is to wound the others without being nicked. If wounded/bleeding the contestant is disqualified and is cast out from the Dance. The winner is the last wolf standing without injury. After one individual has won the pack officially recognizes them as Alpha by their howl and a returned howl from the pack in unison. Recognizing them as fit to lead.

Dance of the Beta's: This is an event which takes place directly after a new Alpha has won the Dance of the Alphas. When an Alpha is chosen eligible adults enter the circle. No laws are spoken and the attack begins immediatly. The last wolf without injury is then made Beta and claimed by the new Alpha.
