Breeding Season date: Winter
Dam's Name (Mother): Nikaty
Sire's Name (Father ): Unknown (a stranger who force bred her)
Pack: Based upon her feeling that going to the Amarth pregnant would be too risky (and her lifestyle change, but she was going to force her former lifestyle upon herself), she would technically be considered a loner. But was Amarth, pup of the Alphas.
Pup Total: (Somebody let me know if the five pup limit is still in effect...Nikaty was out of a nine-pup litter so I'm not sure) If allowed, she'll have eight pups.
Pup Death(s): Two to four. Two will be stillborn, and two may die around weaning age. The deciding factor is if there are adopters or not for the other two. Well, there will need to be adopters for the remaining four as well, so I guess we could have anywhere from two to eight pup deaths, though hopefully some will make it.
Reasons
1.) Why should we allow your wolf to have pups? Well, plottiness would be the biggest reason. The Amarth believe Nikaty to be deceased after being abducted by a bear. She had three paws in the grave, one on a banana peel but was found and nursed back to health by a friendly pack. This sort of took the evil out of her, but she felt it her duty to return to the Amarth, even if that meant forcing herself to live a life she no longer agreed with. But she was forcebred on the way back and is now heavily pregnant. This can have some interesting ties to the other current plot, and whether or not that's the case, can prove interesting down the road. What will the Amarth think when they learn that Nikaty was alive and raising pups in the neutral lands? What will they think if one of her pups seeks acceptance in their ranks. What will the Skah think if one of her pups seeks acceptance in the Skah, after what Nikaty had done in her younger days? Could be quite interesting.
2.) What are your benefits/actions as of being a parent? Nikaty would have strong maternal instincts for caring for her young. She might find she needs a firm paw when it comes to discipline, but she feels it's better to be strict than overly lenient, especially in the dangers of the neutral lands. Though she would be a loving parent and care deeply for her offspring.
3.) Do you have the time for this responsibility? Yes. Especially since I will be concluding my training at the training center on June 29th. She'd actually have her pups early spring.
I like this. =) Poor Nikaty! ... Puppies permitted X3
