<div align="center">Welcome to the Cervidae Tribe! Cervidae Tribe is a tribe I've created.
It is lead by My Lord or Your Grace, the Jarl. The Jarl rules over his tribe and settles all great disputes. He plans any war and battle tactics and makes sure his tribe is happy and working. He also sets up any trials, including those for newcomers, choosing what they shall be. He relies greatly on his Baron, Baroness and Lead Hunter to settle minor disputes and keep the system running properly. He is can only breed to the Viscountess.
Ruling beside the Jarl is his Viscountess, addressed as My Lady. The Viscountess aids the Jarl with all of his duties and also overlooks the progress of the Healer and Herbalist. She's also the one to choose when to assess pups and what their assessment will be. The Viscountess can only breed to the Jarl.
Below the Viscountess is the Baron and Baroness. These two are always a non-related pair, usually one of them being the heir of the Jarl and Viscountess, bethrothed to each other to rule in the future when the Jarl and Viscountess pass on or step down. They are relied upon to make sure the system is running well and that everything's working and on schedule. They are forbidden to breed until they are the Jarl and Viscountess.
The rest of the tribe is occupied of the Healer, the Herbalist, the Lead Hunter, Warriors, Guards and Shepherds.
The Healer's duty is to be devoted to his tribe and to make sure all remain in good health to keep up theirs posts, and to heal the sick and wounded. They are forbidden to breed with any wolves.
The Herbalist serves as a helper to the Healer, aiding him in finding the necessary herbs required for any illnesses or wounds. The Herbalist is also known to possess a strong connection with the gods and is meant to interpret any dreams, visions or omens received by them. They are forbidden to breed with any wolves.
The Lead Hunter organises and participates in hunting parties consisting of Warriors and theirself. The Lead Hunter also must always keep track of the tribe's food stack and make sure that they have enough to last them, and to know when more food is needed.
Warriors are lower in the ranks, but not the lowest. They serve to fight and for their tribe and eachother.
Guards are posted at the tribe borders to patrol, report anything and to defend when needed, until the Warriors arrive. They constantly rotate and no border is ever left unguarded. It is the job of the Baron and Baroness to make sure Guards are always rotating smoothly.Shepherds, the lowest rank of all, are simply meant to keep track and follow the moving herds and report to the Lead Hunter on whatever movements the herds are taking. They take care and feed themselves, rotating on their own. If something does come up, the Baron and Baroness ensure the rotating of Shepherds continues.The Lead Hunter, Warriors, Guards and Shepherds may breed, be it male or female, but it must only be to outsiders of the tribe, to limit inbreeding. New pups are always welcome into the tribe by their females, and males can have pups outside of the tribe, and their pups may sometimes be brought into the tribe if the chance shows and they seem worthy.Unranked members can be either newcomers in the tribe or newborn pups. Trials are held for newcomers to prove themselves worthy of joining the tribe, and pups receive an assessment when deemed ready to prove their worth. If a trial or an assessment is failed, newcomers are turned away and pups are given the choice to wait longer and retry, or can leave the tribe. Unranked members are forbidden to breed at all.
And that is how the Cervidae Tribe works.
