Pack History

Preceded byTwilight Vale

The idea for Crimson Dreams was originally discussed by Naniko D'Angelo, Savina Marino, Pilot Haddon, and Urma on August 26, 2008.1 However, it wasn't until September 21, 2008, that the pack was officially founded.

1.  History

1.1  Early History (September 2008 - Present)

The idea for Crimson Dreams came about on August 26, 2008, when Naniko D'Angelo, Savina Marino, Pilot Haddon, and Urma all got together to discuss a future pack. Shortly after, a location similar to that of Twilight Vale's old territory was chosen for Crimson Dreams.1 All of the prospective members gathered and leadership was announced, forming the pack.2

2.  Territory

Nestled between the northwestern region of Shiloh Hills and a small area of Ethereal Eclipse, Crimson Dreams encompasses a lightly forested area sprawling with vegetation of all kinds. To the southeast corner are the pristine waters of Rabbit Lake – a prime gathering area for much of the neighboring game. The territory itself seems to have a warm air about it, reflecting the feeling of security the pack was founded on.

2.1  Lenape River


Map of Crimson Dreams, by Alli
Created by Alli.

The thin river snakes its twists and turns through the southern portion of the territory. The quickly moving water digs deep into the earth, but is hidden well by the surrounding forest and its shores are nothing just steep banks. One must be mindful not to run out of the wood and right off the bank.

2.2  Highrocks

Created by Alli.

Towering 200 feet over the river, the cliffs of Highrocks display the northern landscape of Crimson Dreams. If the powerful winds aren’t whipping across the rocks, the limestone and shale boulders create a wide and comfortable lookout.

2.3  Haven Manor

Created by Amber.

Haven Mansion is a large and towering structure made of bricks and cement that sits in the far eastern part of the territory. There are different sections of the mansion, including the foyer, front porch, kitchen, living room, and a large amount of upstairs bedrooms. There is also a secret passage that runs beneath it, but few know about this dark, dusty underground tunnel.

2.4  Cottontail Mountain

Created by Alli.

Tucked in the forest behind the Crimson Dreams Mansion is the spacious but intimate Cottontail Valley. The narrow valley is littered with green grasses and wildflowers, a pleasant retreat for any beast. Prey frequent the nutritious grazing, and is cut down the middle by an old stonewall.

2.5  McNamara's Landing

Created by James.

In the Northwestern portion of the territory lays an old, rust-covered military cargo jet. The jet appears to have crashed; the front portion of it is crushed like an accordion, and there are large gashes in the metal of its sides. The jet carried many different kinds of supplies, and some boxes are scattered around it.

2.6  Skip Caves

Created by James.

The Skip Cave system lies to the Southwest of Haven Manor. There are a few smaller caves on the outside, but most of the caves are connected; those could be used for hiding in or as protection from the rain.

2.7  Silver Showers

Created by James.

Silver Showers is the name of a series of small waterfalls that spring from the Lenape River. The river runs up for a short time along the Highrocks before tumbling down over a couple of drops of about ten feet each.

2.8  Riunione Beach

Created by Erin.

Where Crimson Dreams reaches to the Atlantic is where one will find Riunione Beach. Though much of the coastline in the Trenches is steep and craggy rocks, there is a natural path leading down to a secluded, beautiful, and peaceful sand beach. It is a perfect place to play in the surf or even have a nice little picnic. If one is a fan of spending a quiet day on the beach observing the ocean, there is no better place than Riunione Beach.

2.9  Koender Windmill

Created by Alli.

South of Haven Manor and west of Rabbit lake sits a quiet and gentle giant. Settled in a forgotten field whose grain was taken over by more native flora stands an ancient windmill. Constructed from river stones, it sits on a wide circular base. It was once the center of the Koender farmstead. Hollowed by time and decay, the inside holds only remnants of the inner workings that made the mill function. Only three out of the original four sails remain, though their shutters have been stripped from years of wind and weather. Though it looks docile the Koender Windmill still holds a few mysteries, its pieces rickety and old… How long it will stand is any beast’s guess.

2.10  Cinlia Hollow

Created by Sara-Joe.

A large, beautiful forest of trees has grown over the remains of a military base. Some buildings are here and there but many have been overcome and hidden in the thick forest. The underground tunnels are still in great condition and spread throughout the forest like the small creaks and streams from the falls.

2.11  Old Red

Created by Melissa.

Just south of Haven Manor and to the West of Rabbit Lake is an old tall barn made by the humans. The building is made of wood, now faded red with paint and filled with holes, with an old rusty metal roof. Within the barn there sides are lined with wooden stalls filled with hay.

3.  Pack Relationships

3.1  Key

— Actively warring or recently warring or otherwise experiencing conflict.
— Poor relationship. It's pretty clear these guys don't like each other much.
— Neutral.
— Good relationship, but no official alliance.
— Officially allied.

3.2  Active Packs

Inferni

Gabriel de le Poer is pretty friendly with Anu Sheah; during the Second Dahlian War Savina Marino declares the pack's official neutrality. Kaena Lykoi has met two members of the Dreams pack, and they got along well enough—Inferni does not consider this pack a threat, though they are not extremely friendly with one another.

Aniwaya

Neutral? :O AniWaya is pretty friendly with everyone—Dawali Amara tries not to be mean to anyone.

Cour des Miracles

These two packs are are on decent terms with one another; Princess Chance moved from Crimson Dreams to take up residence with her love interest, Haven Aatte. Prior to this event, however, the leadership of the Dreams pack—Savina Marino—met with Ruri Aceline, a subleader of the Miracles pack, to discuss the movement and learn a little about each others' packs; this strengthened the relationship between the two packs.

Phoenix Valley

These two groups are pretty friendly with one another, though Naniko D'Angelo, a former member of Crimson Dreams was removed from the pack due to a problem with drugs. These personal circumstances don't affect the whole pack relation, though, and in general they're on good enough terms.

Dahlia de Mai

Savina Marino declared the pack's neutrality during the Second Dahlian War. The relationship between these two packs has been overall good. Their bonds strengthened after Conor Soul rose to leadership and the leadership on both sides are related to each other and on a good wavelength.
