Kitten 367 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Athri Barbu'Chirr Serpant Black Wolf Description: A large black grayhound like dog, with an abnormally long neck stretching 3 feet long. Its tail is half the body length and is kept long to allow it balance when running. The weight of the dog is about 150lbs. It stands up to a standard human’s waist and when on hind legs is almost as tall. These dogs are covered in large black scales, including on their eyes, which means quite often they shed. The fangs of the dog are quite sharp, and abnormally long, sticking a small bit out of their mouth. The underbelly, neck and chin are all covered in large scales similar to a snakes belly allowing the vital areas to be protected. As the creature doesn’t have any fur this is its main defence, making stabbing a bit harder and making it more able to run than its greatly furred wolf companions. This breed is made to specifically outrun wolves, its small head and long neck allowing it to see obstacles faster and gives it a better turning time by using its head as well as the tail as a counter weight similar to a dragon. Habitat: Athri Barbu'Chirr do not enter snow lands due to their lack of fur, this means that they must remain in deserts, forests, canyons and other places that will not likely snow. Once a Fenn-Barbu’Chirr does enter a snowy region, they have maybe a day or two before they freeze to death. Personality: You could compare a Athri Barbu'Chirr to a ball python and a pitbull mix. Being calm of nature unless they are endanger as a ball python is, and loyal as can be similar to a pitbull. These creatures will only serve one master after they get to the age of one, after that they will die pining if they are left. Age range: A Athri Barbu'Chirr lives until they are approximately 30-40 years old. Heath Risks: They tend to suffer hip dysplasia and occasional mouth rot. Intelligence: About the same as their wolf counterparts. Breeding: Their genes are recessive, thus breeding them with other breeds will not give you a result desired. You can only breed them with each other to have any traits passed on. Where to find one: Currently only the family of Catrina and Morgana has one, as well as Daenes due to the rarity these were the last four left in the fringe. Questions on the creature: Bring to myself. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjmate 1270 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I don't really see why this is important or useful to the server. It seems more like a fun trinket for a niche of players, who happen to be your friends. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitten 367 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 It is just a special breed, nothing more. I don't need it to be useful to have one, I've wanted my characters to have one for months, just never made the picture for it. Also if you didn't understand, these creatures, are meant to kill wolves, they are a wolfs natural enemy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neri 3590 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Black Ice Wolf? If anything, i'd called it Black Serpent Wolf or Athri Barbu'Chirr. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone 869 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Let's say Daenes gets into a fight with a guy who has two wolves. Daenes has her athri barbu'chirrs with her. The athri barbu'chirrs are there to take down the man's wolves. Taking care of the man himself would be up to Daenes though and thus the real challenge. Look at how many people walk around now with packs. In a fight whoever has more wolves going after you would win. But an athri barbu'chirr is made for taking down those wolves.

Also if you didn't understand, these creatures, are meant to kill wolves, they are a wolfs natural enemy.So you make a breed of wolf that is meant to kill other wolves?What exactly is the weakness of these wolves?If there are only 4 in existance, how does 3 families have one?What makes them able to kill other wolves so well?Since they are a serpent dog mix, how does this make them better than other wolves?Who is training them?How, if they are only able to breed with themselves, are there only 4 in existance and where did they come from?How are they going to be used other than against others who have wolves?Since they are not quite "mechanical standard" why should these be accepted by the community when you specifically made 4 over powered wolves meant to kill other wolves specifically?

Cjmate 1270 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I'm not really a fan of lore that is only applicable to a handful of people, and you have to go through those people to be apart of it. It's sort of like runesmithing, which I dislike, but at least it is available to most Dwarves that have proven themselves. This is clearly only available to you and your friends, which is wrong.

Kitten 367 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 So you make a breed of wolf that is meant to kill other wolves?What exactly is the weakness of these wolves? They have no fur, so they need to have long fangs, their scales are like snakes, they can be bitten through. They are subject to cold.If there are only 4 in existance, how does 3 families have one? Morgana and catrina are twinsWhat makes them able to kill other wolves so well? They are faster, and they have long teeth meant to dig into a wolfs throat.Since they are a serpent dog mix, how does this make them better than other wolves? Speed, agility, and attacks.Who is training them? Daenes as she has always trained wolvesHow, if they are only able to breed with themselves, are there only 4 in existance and where did they come from? They ended up dying due to their lack of protection.How are they going to be used other than against others who have wolves? They are passive pretty much besides seeing other wolves, they obviously would be beat by a lur wolf, no problem.Since they are not quite "mechanical standard" why should these be accepted by the community when you specifically made 4 over powered wolves meant to kill other wolves specifically? These wolves aren't overpowered, as they all have disadvantages. I'm not really a fan of lore that is only applicable to a handful of people, and you have to go through those people to be apart of it. It's sort of like runesmithing, which I dislike, but at least it is available to most Dwarves that have proven themselves. This is clearly only available to you and your friends, which is wrong. You can easily just go up to grim or catrina and ask for a puppy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaBearJade 2090 Share Posted April 13, 2014 The only thing I see wrong with the lore is you bred wolves....to kill other wolves. This does not sit right with me at all. Its like breeding dogs to SPECIFICALLY kill other dogs. I will not support this lore as this is something seen as wrong. Wolves will fight each other no problem, but breeding specifically to KILL and HARM other wolves... I am giving this a -1 due to the twisted and sick idea. Breed wolves to be stronger, more agile. Not to KILL or HARM other wolves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnoy23 202 Share Posted April 13, 2014 This does not sit right with me at all. Its like breeding dogs to SPECIFICALLY kill other dogs. This has existed for thousands of years IRL. They're called guard dogs, hunting dogs, and war dogs. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitten 367 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 ITS NOT A WOLF, I'm using Chirr as there is no elvish word for Dog, otherwise it would be called a black serpant dog! As well as they are naturally this way. I didn't breed them, they are native to this land, but nearly became extinct. Get your facts straight before you talk down to me.

Ford 1996 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Jade, are you slightly mad because you just made lore about dark elf wolves, and now here comes a specific breed of wolves meant to kill other wolves, including Ker wolves? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaBearJade 2090 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Talk down to you? Wow. Really? So because I dont like your idea I am talking down to you? Tnoy, they are bred to SPECIFICALLY kill SPECIFIC animals. Thats what doesnt sit right with me. I dont have to like the idea. I am allowed my opinion. @ford - No, i honestly couldnt care less if she had her own "special breed" my issue is they are bred to SPECIFICALLY kill wolves. By the way they talk 2 of these can take out a pack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjmate 1270 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I don't really have a problem with the lore for this. The ideas is fine. Only thing is, I think they should be wild instead of already owned. The idea of already owning a rare, near extinct, species does not sit well with me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
