INTRODUCTION

This is the family of Akaodon. Deldrach Akaodon, born from royalty in a pride far away, now lives on the Island with the rest of the groups. Their signature, purebred royalty mark are the golden and silver eyes- of which, however, are hard to come by. Akaodon's look out for each other. Infighting hardly exists, and they stand as the harbringers of justice. They are not warbound- but rather cold equity-bound, going to the lengths of being called 'Peacekeepers'. Whilst they are a small family, they do what they do to protect eachother, and above all, the hierachy in general.

But remember, blood is not thicker than water.

THE HISTORY

Deldrach's last name is Akaodon- but not until after she married Primus. She took on his last name, even as a princess of the pride, and married together two prides. Primus, however, was not who he said he was. Abuse and dark times riddled this marriage. It got to the point where the two had a fight, not long after Deldrach had given birth to two cubs. Primus ended up marring and supposedly killing one child, and Deldrach then killed him in cold blood.

There hadn't been a hesitation.

She had traveled far away from the Pride that night, after burying her one son and taking her other with her. She changed her name, her identity. She made her way onto the island, and not long after that occured, her son had disappeared. It had been painful, but Deldrach built herself up in the Typhoon, with other people she trusted and care for. Primus made his appearance once or twice again, but he hasn't succeeded in driving the Akaodon family line into the ground.

THE HIERARCHY

There's a hierarchy, much like a regular pride. The Immortala stands at the top, and down at the bottom are those who are most recent to the family as adoptees. ALL RANKS LOGGED IN A REGISTRY ON A SEPERATE POST.

1. IMMORTALA - The highest on the hierarchy. Their word is law, and they are the head of the family. They hold the utmost waver or allowance. White band.

2. ARCHINE - The second in command. They only answer to the Immortala, and are often of the royal blood. Gray band.

3. THE THREE DIVINE - A council of typically three. This position is also oft more royal blooded, but is far easier for marked to get in. They each advise and council the Archine and Immortala. They sit as the chairs of each division. Royal blue band.

4. HARBINGER - A semi-high rank of six warriors, divided in twos. They either specialize in medicine, espionage, or war, and lead each division in missions or battles. Light blue band.

5. CRUSADERS - The general masses. Mothers, children, apprentices, and adults. Black band.

THE TRADTIONS

CHARM GAUNTLETS
The first and foremost are the charmed gauntlets. They are found on the left paw, and are wrapped leather that go around the bottom of the paw, then up past the wrist and halfway up the leg. Different charms and bands can be woven into the gauntlet, and are used as a way to display rank in the family. (The bands are significant of rank, and charms of positions and accomplishments. Color bands for ranks can be noted inside the rank.)
BI-ANNUAL FEAST
Crusaders who come of age are asked to hunt and kill a large non-sentient prey. They bring it back and are taught to spit, roast, and serve said prey- not only for the family and their invitees, but themselves as well. This gives the entire family a day to gather and share their news.

RITUAL OF CHOOSING
One of the three divine holds a choosing ceremony. They present an element each to those who come of age, and depending which element the crusader picks, they are then assigned to that division. They hunt, speak, and fight alongside their division thereafter most often.

THE FORM

There will be no form yet. I'm going to be holding an adopt for two of Deldrach's children soon (those presented in the family history) to get this party rolling!
