Status: I have found new homes for all the wolves in my den, and as promised, it is time for me to go. It was a good run, I love you all.
That's all folks!
I really enjoyed my 6 years on this game. When I first joined, I was in a dark place, and Wolf Play was like a sanctuary where I could nurse my wounds in peace. I got better, but then the pandemic plunged me right back.
However, this time I was not alone. I made friends in university, a group of amazing people who have surprised me again and again at every turn, who look out and care for each other, just like in the movies. They continuously drag me out of the shadows into the light over and over again.
Between 2022 and 2024, I have also found my partner. She is everything I dreamed of and more. Come sundown, I hope to join hands as we walk the night together, fighting off demons with our dominant hands!
I wish I could go back in time, and tell my past self how much better things would get. Just a reminder to those who are going through hard times, it will get better.

I was not alone on Wolf Play either. A lot of wonderful people helped me along the way. Many are no longer on here, but I hope they are living their lives out to the fullest, like I will be. Here's to you, the online friends I made, whether you knew me as Enigma, or Black Swan. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. And sorry if I don't get everyone, I have so many memories. If you were to message me and I remember you, you can assume you were on this list as well. Vice versa goes too: you might not remember me, but I remember you!
Legend - My favorite 1x1 RP partner of all time. I'll never forget the magic you brought to my life.
Richard, Nighthawk, Alfred F. Jones - My great friend, I knew you first and always as Richard. Maybe I'll see you in Hawaii one day.
Tooch - I still remember the singing clip of "Moral of the Story" you sent to me! Thanks for your crackhead energy, you've calmed down a lot but I can tell it's still there haha. We’re all grown up now, yet the stars continue to laugh with us.
Owsla, Echu - My sweet explore protege. Move mountains and ford oceans with your new secrets. May the world know what an amazing person you are. Thank you for continuing Adina's bloodline in her top stud grandson Lunarius <3
Shulk - You were the first person to show me kindness on here. You didn't have to make me a custom wolf for the one of mine you accidentally retired, but you did.
Aven - Gave me the last apple for my first ever den expansion.
Berserkers - Gave me the apples for my first den expansion when I rejoined the game. And laughs!
QueenAlderamin, Ragnarok, Celestial Saga, Jo - It was a delight to see you still around when I returned in 2024. I wish I could be there to see what wonderful things life will send your way, because they will come. Continue to respect yourself, hold your head high, and the stars will find you.
Darkgold - I wish I'd known you sooner, but I'm thankful for the time we had together. I enjoyed being devious with you, and I hope you are well wherever you are.
Temptress - Rest in peace, my love.
Corax Noir - Your unmistakable signature charming characters never ceased to bring a smile to my lips, and your writing never failed to deliver every time. Congrats on finishing your book! I hope I get to read it one day.
Candor - My most steadfast RP partner, I will miss our plays and chats when I leave. Thanks for all the kind words about my writing, you too are an excellent artist of prose!
Mafia - I always am delighted to see your PMs in my mailbox. Thank you for giving my kids a better life within your pack!
technoblade - You are an incredible saver and explorer. And I assure you, you could have easily taken the FMC from me if you had the time. You were the first returning face I saw in 2022, and I enjoyed our years of chats. Congrats on becoming a millionaire, I am so very proud of you, supersaver!!
Lightningwolves - One of the first three players I RP'd with, of ever I think. I know you're gone now, but I wrote some of the most beautiful paragraphs when we RP'd together, so thank you for that.
Polly - Another one of my first RP partners, whenever I see your name it evokes a warm and deep sense of nostalgia. Glad to see you're still on the ball!
Scarlet Hollow - I was too scared to tell you that your character's name sounded like enema. Anima was slightly better though haha. If you ever see this, I apologize, and though it's been long I haven't forgotten you.
Carpe Noctem - Carpe Carpe Carpe! I enjoyed our conversations in Chatbox, as I hope you had gathered from my enthusastic hellos.
Dire - You guided me through the principles of explore when I was first spreading my wings, and taught me tips and tricks that I still carry with me today. You are insanely intelligent, and are who I believe to be the greatest explorer of all time on WP. I know you're doing better things with your time now than crush the entire server on FMC, but if you ever decide to return to the field, I discovered a new trick that will half your time to getting to 69420.
CriesInTheNight - Eons ago, you started as a RP partner, then a trade partner, then a friend. I forgive you for mistaking me for a noob when I first rejoined haha!
bluebird - I met you as The Unspeakable, though that username was dope I love your current one even more. You made me cackle like a little bitch in our PMs. I was glad to see you were still around when I returned. I hope you take that sassy 'tude wherever you choose to pursue, and wish you nothing but blue skies.
Elbowen - You brought the life out of my Vanessa, and apples out of her hands, with your writing. Stay Elbowen :)
Silly - I’m happy to hear life has been blissful for you since we last talked. You have always been a brighter soul. Keep finding the silver linings in life.
Rageing Stormz - I was upset one day for reasons I forget, and blocked you on my old account. I have since regretted it, and am sorrowful I could not apologize as you had blocked me back. You were a great friend.
Twisted Fate - Twistie! I'll always remember your old username, but your current one is cute as well. Sad I haven't seen you as often in chat.
arlo - Who I believed to be a kindred soul when I read your enthusiastic response to my apology about buying up all your feathers. Thank you for the subsequent endless supply, and the chuckles in PMs.
Ducks Whispers, Death valley - My sweet Doritos Thanos. Keep munching away, until those chips become a part of your blood xD I will greatly miss your presence in chat, and seeing the adorable wolves you have to show me. Since you are always broke when I talk to you, I have left you a little something. Spend wisely my friend.
Empty Veil - Veil ;_; Thank you for your kindness when I first rejoined the game. I didn't know what I did to deserve it. I named the wolf you gifted me after you! And thanks for giving Fife a good rest of his life.
Eno - My former DH supplier turned friend. I sent your Vignette and Primera Sangre to the stars as promised, where they have both placed their pawmarks on WP history by setting the record for highest mush made in explore in one day. Your generosity when I returned two years later made me tear up, I am seriously bummed out that we did not get to chat for longer. If you would like to find me one day, head to where the ocean slips into the sky and the woods stand at your back.
Fusty-Dudget - Fonkers <3 <3 <3 I have been such sadge I didn't get to see your derpy patootie around more often ;_; I'm glad I grabbed you when I saw you though! Your eager energy will be much, much missed.
Hallbjorns - Wahhh, you're a big kid now with a dapper green hat xD It's much deserved and long overdue, I know you will make a fantastic mod. I still have the free pride art you made me <3
OokamiDono - I have you to thank the most for my springboard from the bottom to the top within 10 days of rejoining the game. I am grateful for your faith in my abilities, and if you would like to adopt Emiline, my albinoxDH, feel free to PM me before I leave.
SheperdsRule - Shep! Didn't get to talk to you much as you seemed busy, but I'm glad your health is doing better.
Trenzalore - Trenz! You speak so elegantly, and I am regretful that I did not get to see how that played out in dialogue for the RPG I could not finish. If you would like, I give you permission to use the material I have created so far to launch your own campaign.
Sjuk. - Another big kid now with a green hat :') You are making a fantastic mod--- the ones who take the time to mod while being kind to the players are the best ones. I read your ant chronicles at some point, I hope they are doing well too!
Tolkien - Ahh Tolks... I really wish I had seen you more often in chat, I missed you. I was delighted to see your green hat, you are a great fit for the mod role. But where did your Montak boob banner go? xD
Z O D I A C - Not sure if you're still around, but I still think about the falling out we had. I regret catching you on a bad day, and extend my condolences for your cat.
Saphire - One of the many, transient new players I have taken under my wing. You're definitely still not around (hence the transient), but you were adorable :)
Xuan - My old username twin! Congrats on the green hat :D I will remember you as I first knew you.
Raewyn - You gifted me my namesake's decor back when I first joined the game. It was my first gift, and I have never forgotten
Specific Ocean - The first ever friend I made on here! You are long, long gone, like fossilized haha, but I have never forgotten you either, and the art you made for my first failed departure from Wolf Play.
starwolfs - Not quite a friend but whom I consider to be a worthy opponent, you are an extremely tenacious explorer and I had to keep my wits about me when I was debuting in the FMC! I admire your persistence, I have no doubts you will hit 100 FMC wins someday.
Blood Demons - A formidable explorer! I consider you to be one of the great dragons of explore. Maybe when I come back one day, I will see you up there on the leaderboards again.
Leopard Lover - Whenever I see your nickname I want to call you LL Bean :P So I do! I'll remember our discussions about the fastest BE training times, 3hrs is still the quickest time I have ever heard of. I wonder if you can go faster with the new explore moves update!
Ouija - Weggie board <3 I'll miss our goofy talks in chat, and finding new ways to remix your username.
Crush, Boo - You're probably the only one on here that I think I might get to meet again. Proud to call you a country comrade, and proud of your progress so far on life. Keep at it, you are such a kind and funny person. May you get only heroes and become one yourself.
devine - The source of all mush hoarders' greying hair. I would pay good money to see the amount of cash that's flown through your account haha! You gifted me my first DG wolf, Fife, when I first rejoined the game, and since have worked together with me to accrue data that all WPers can now use to make their exploring lives easier. If I ever return, I hope to see you on the leaderboards once more.
~DragonSoul~ - Come baaaack! I loved chatting with you in between breaks during FMC exploring, and I consider you to be one of the greatest explorers of all time. You are super sweet, kind, and very funny ahaha, you're one of the people that if I heard you returned, I would also return to the game.
RabidWinter - Hey Rabid! You always greet me when I show up in chat :) I enjoyed our talks, and I hope Merci carries you to the stars.
Kitties - You were a such an enormous help in getting my pack from trundling along to firing on all pistons. It appears as if you have taken a break from the game, but your training services were much appreciated, and I regret not paying you more, because you sure deserved it.
Redwood Wolves - Woody. Since I rejoined I have been trying to find you. I'm not sure if this addressed to the correct person, the timestamp of creation seems correct, I just know I got your nickname from redwood. Thanks for witnessing my antics in chat before I milded down, and supporting my climb to the status of undefeated egg pun queen.
Quoth The Raven - My old RP partner! And one of the good 'uns from the golden ages of the pandemic chaos. I'm glad you've survived thus far, and hello? You became an amazing artist while I was away! I hope you stay creative, forevermore.
Cherokee Pride - My most memorable RP partner of the ones who joined the second ever RP I ever made. I admit I and Celia had a huge crush on Lianne, and was sad when you were unable to return for round two of the shapeshifter school RP.
Nox - It's been a while since we last talked, but I remember you as being insanely funny.
Falcone - You had sale on old DG wolves in which I purchased my first ever DG wolf, whom I used to train up my first ever DG team. She was the beginning of my entire explore career, and her line lived on as long as my old account was active. Thank you for providing that opportunity.
DasGurkenglas - I have great hope for you and your potential in explore! If you ever decide you want to take things to the next level, please don't hesitate to reach out, and I can lend you some tips and tricks. Thanks for being a good sport, I hope my girls live out a happy rest of their lives with you, and I'll see you around :)
Feiella - Fee :D I'll miss talking to you in chat. When I returned, seeing my name mentioned in your bio was really touching. Thank you for that.
Boeing - It’s not a bird nor a plane, but a new friend :) Thanks for being a good sport in chat and always saying hello. I am proud of your WoW achievements, and your integrity. May your spirit buoy you through life <3
Amygdala - I have never met a PvP tycoon before nor did I realize it was even possible to become one. I am very pleased to have made your acquaintance in my short time back here, and I hope you continue to dominate into the thousands of wins.
Continental Wolves - Your generosity when I returned to this game reminded me of why I will always think of this place as fondly as I do. People like you make up the very backbone of the WolfPlay community, ensuring that the welcoming and the warmth stays for future generations to come. Thank you for helping give me the opportunity to take one last shot at my hunting tournament goal!
Red River Wolves - I used to think I was unstoppable with my strategies and methods, but you have proved me otherwise. I see now that tenacity and time are an explorer’s greatest weaknesses, both of which you have no shortage of. You are what exploring was made for, and I feel honored to have encountered you in my last hours on here. At the consideration of your health, I expect to see your name atop the hall of fame if I return one day!
Insane Sanity - You remind me of the friends I used to chat with for hours on here. I am glad I got to talk to you in the three months of my return :) You are a good person, congrats on winning at life.
Oakley - A chance meeting, you were right under my nose the whole time and I never knew it! It was nice to get to talk to you again about the RPs of our past, and the possibility of a new one.
