Other Animals
Titan
Titans, otherwise known as Titan Elk, are a species of massive elk which rival the now-extinct Irish Elk of our world, fortunately, however, unlike the Irish Elk, they have a manageable and realistic set of antlers. They are highly intelligent and completely monogamous, mating for life and living in large communal herds with several stags acting as guards, while younger stags act as scouts to find better grazing areas and herbs if they need them. The stags have a strong presence in raising their young as well as the does.
Sierra Leopard
The most dangerous predator in the forest are the Sierra Leopards, a species of massive panthers up to 100cm in height at the shoulders. They are lead by the wise and powerful Watcher of the Peaks, whose powers are also a gift of the Void. The Watcher of the Peaks is respected even by the wolves, as she educates Leopards on the importance of the wolves who protect the void. However; she learns by word of mouth, so when new leopards move in, they seldom know the moral code of the Calling Mountain leopards, and treat the wolves as prey. If the Watcher doesn't learn of them soon enough, she may not be able to travel to them to educate them in time before they make a meal out of a Calling Forest wolf.
Striped Bear and Plains Bear
The Striped Bear is a species of bear which in size is somewhere between a black bear and a grizzly bear, they have stripe-like undercoats and are great climbers. Plains Bears are much larger, closer to the size of a polar bear and with the build of a grizzly, they are incredible at digging for food, and can run alarmingly fast for their size. Both species generally don't mind the wolves and keep to themselves, sometimes they live in small groups if they find it beneficial or just enjoy the company of other bears. These bears will attack wolves non-violently if they come close to their food or try to bother their cubs. Sometimes they're monogamous, if they so choose to be.
Mountain Eagle
Behemoth birds of prey with the wing span and strength incomparable to any species of our world. Estimated at over twice the size of the wandering albatross, Earth's largest flying bird, and with incredible power in it's talons, one of these birds could easily pick up and carry away your typical trainee or pup. It's best to lay low if you see one flying over head, as they could very easily kill a wolf of any size or age. Old stories from long-ago Sovereigns however, indicate that it is possible to form a bond with and domesticate these eagles, if given the right gift from the Void!
Slight Deer, Giant Lemmings, and other prey
There is an abundance of different species across the forest that make adequate prey. Slight Deer are small deer similar to the size of Chinese Water Deer. Bucks have a small set of horn-like antlers, and they are, absolutely, one of the most agile mammals in the entire forest. Catching them requires great speed and knowledge of your terrain. Giant Lemmings are a species of Lemming which is similar to the size of a Muskrat, and make great food if you can catch them! They're pretty easy to find, breed very fast, and are just about everywhere.

Locations
The Wide Sea
Bordering the southern side of Ferruus and Silaxas is the Wide Sea. South Sea Salmon, Salt Otters, and Shallow Whales are some of the creatures that live in this ocean. Despite it not being the South Sea, South Sea Salmon come as far north as the Wide Sea coasts to spawn during the salmon rush.
Calling Mountains
The mountains just north of the Calling Forest. The forest that the wolves live in is called a 'foothill', which is a term for the jagged, massive, rolling hills, that sit just outside of mountain ranges. Beyond these mountains are the far Northern regions of this continent.
The Splitting Sea, The Curling Sea, The Northern Sea, and the Southern Sea
Though they're never seen or present in the roleplay, there are four other seas named and present on the planet this roleplay takes place on. The Wide Sea, which is the one the Calling Forest borders, is the largest consistent ocean in the world. The Splitting Sea is a narrow sea to the far western coast which splits the other primary continental chain from the ones that AIH resides on. The Curling Sea is a strange 'spiral' looking sea on the other continental chain as well. The Northern and Southern Seas are the Seas of the North and South poles.
The Continent of Iirusaa
Though seldom ever mentioned, the continent that the Calling Forest is on specifically is the second largest continent in the world, called Iirusaa, it's size and regions are strikingly like that of North America.
The Planet
Though the planet they live on hasn't been named, refrain from calling it 'Earth' as that isn't it's name. Be vague, use terms like planet, world, globe, etc!
