Boardwide Plots.

Table of Contents

Throughout the history of Ruins of Wildwood, several larger plots have taken place to further the history of Relic Lore and create new challenges for our wolves and players. Many of these plots opened up new territories to explore as well as forcing pack- and lone wolves alike to work together and go outside of their comfort zones to protect their mutual home, keep it safe, thriving and happy.

Below is an archive of the past Boardwide Plots that have happened over time at Ruins of Wildwood. The timelines include a description of the overall plot with the individual events, threads, and characters that were involved.

Boardwide Plot 1: When the River Runs Dry.

Summer has just passed in Relic Lore and it was a hot one... But was it fiery enough to slowly drain away all the water? At first this peculiar event went unnoticed; the water that flowed along Heartleaf Creek and down Bramble Falls was always lower in the summer with less rain and more evaporation, but this time it just continued to get lower and lower. Wolves were starting to notice it, and some to panic, wondering, what if it continues to drain away until it is all gone? Will it ever come back? How can a forest hope to sustain if it has no water to help the foliage grow and the animals to drink?

  1. 31/08/10
  2. A group of wolves has discovered the remains of a dead deer; cause of death: unknown.
  3. 10/09/10
  4. A dehydrated bear attacks an unsuspecting group of wolves.
  5. 11/09/10
  6. Indru and Lifdis start to contemplate and speculate over the depleting water sources.
  7. 13/09/10
  8. Ruiko warns a lone wolf about the disappearing water.
  9. 03/10/10
  10. The water in Heartleaf Creek is completely gone. The inhabitants of Relic Lore are now forced to find either another water source, or figure out what happened.
  11. 09/11/10
  12. With the sole guardianship of his younger brother and the pack now in his paws, Ruiko desperately searches for hydration.. even in the strangest places.
  13. 12/11/10
  14. A lone wolf joins the Swift River pack while most of the inhabitants of Relic Lore leave with the vanished water.
  15. 24/11/10
  16. Continuing his search for water, Ruiko abandons his pride and seeks the knowledge of Relic Lore's other pack, Midnight Plateau.
  17. 30/11/10
  18. After a short period of absence between them, Alexander and Amelie meet again, though under more stressful circumstances. They conduct a search for water in the Mountain of Dire — and find it they do. After they dislodge the boulder blocking the stream which normally feeds Relic Lore, the water returns.

The last of the bright colored autumn leaves has fallen, taking with it the warmth of sunshine. The days grow shorter now—darkness envelops Relic Lore with a chill that rakes much closer to the skin so early in the months of winter than before.

Boardwide Plot 5: 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?

Boardwide Plot 6: Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf.

Spring is in the air, and as the snow fades some rivals will begin to appear. Relic Lore has begun to swarm with an unusually large number of coyotes. While normally aloof, shy, timid creatures with minimal social structure, the above-average numbers have caused them to form larger, more aggressive, loosely-organized groups. Some of them might target each other, but others look to their larger, more successful foe: the wolf. They may be small, but these opportunistic canines will do anything to gain the upper hand be it fight, steal, or kill. Food will be in short supply with the wolves and the coyotes competing with each other. The wolves of Relic Lore will have to be on their guard if they hope to stay safe, and some might find themselves less protected than others....
