High ranks

They must watch over pups and juveniles until they are able to take care of themselves. While any character is allowed, these are often female characters whom are protective, motherly and timid.
Low Ranks
Elders
While they are considered lower ranks, Elders are one of the most respected in the pack. They are treated kindly, and looked upon for advice in times of need. These members are often canines who an not offer a service and spend their days wandering with the pack.
Youth
These are the youth of the pack, often aged from 10 months to 19 months. These are the rambunctious teens of the pack. They are allowed out of the pack circle, but must not leave without permission. At this age they are able to converse and tag along with the upper ranks that they would like to become.
Whelps
These are the 0 - 10 month olds in the pack, the puppies. These members must be watched over at all times. If a pup is seen leaving camp, they will be punished and remain a pup until they are able to move up in rank at 19 months.
Grunts
These are the scum, captive and disgraced in the pack. They are not allowed to sleep in the inner circle of the pack, and are often kept under guard [if they are a captive]. They are not permitted to join in on daily pack life, and they rarely ever get enough nutrition in their systems. Most canines blessed with this rank debate become a rouge.
