A Plague of Peccary

These shockingly destructive and invasive wild hogs have made their way into British Columbia! With the cool air of fall settling in, they’ve infested the forests of Relic Lore and will stop at nothing to fill their bellies as they get ready for the oncoming winter. These opportunistic omnivores will quickly present a real problem, even for the wolves – capable of destroying entire fields while foraging, these animals will eat roots, berries, shrugs, and they will also happily raid a wolf’s cache and eat the remains stored there. Loners stand little chance against an adult hog, and even a fully formed pack will struggle against this highly intelligent, well organized opponent. Winter is coming, and so are the pigs. Will your pack be able to fill yours stores while fending off the pigs that will so happily leave a wasteland in their wake?

The Pigs Are Coming!

In the far southern regions of Relic Lore, two scouts have arrived to sample the forest. Acantha has shown up in Fireweed Rise, where she has begun to root up the fireweed, leaving piles of fresh dirt and decimating the local flowers. Meanwhile, her sister, Amara, has entered Dragonfly Fen. She is often found near sources of water, seeking out opportunity for food and leaving the streams mucky in her wake.

If you would like to interact with Acantha or Amara, please post in this thread. These introduction threads are first come, first serve. Acantha and Amara will be played by staff members, and should not be NPC’d. When the plot progresses and opens up, there will be many more opportunities. If your wolf would like to investigate the damage without finding the pigs, you are more than welcome to do so!

So to investigate them, do we post here or just assume our wolves have found evidence that they are present?

Rory would like to meet one!

If you want to interact directly with a pig, then you should let our pig players know by responding to this announcement.

If you want to have a thread without the pigs, but discovering evidence of the pigs (destruction they've caused, trails, etc.), then you are free to do so. A thread is required though - no wolves should all of a sudden be aware that there's pigs in the area without having a thread either with the pigs themselves or discovering the damage.

We'll be creating a thread in Wolf Central shortly asking for all BWP related threads to be posted there so we can keep track of what is happening around the site.
