1. Members must have coyote heritage, or dog heritage. Exceptions may be grandfathered in, but there is no coyote-percentage requirement for standard membership. Only coyotes and coyote hybrids can hold ranks above Enkindled, though.
2. Members must be under 50% wolf to join. The Ashen have a high prejudice against wolves, and their ilk, and will not let in high-content wolf hybrids.

   • The only exceptions that could be, potentially, overlooked are previous members of Inferni who were on good terms upon Inferni's disbandment. If your character falls beneath this exception, please reach out to DCG Leadership for further clarification - approval is on a case-by-case basis.

1.1  IC Prejudice

Del Cenere Gang is a pro-Coyote biased pack - Dogs are still valuable members of Del Cenere's society, however, wolves and high-content wolf hybrids are largely frowned upon and unwelcome to linger within Del Cenere's borders. Wolf sympathizers should expect push back from other characters!

• Exceptions to wolf presence is strictly limited to trading ventures within Charmingtown.
• Wolf traders are required to have members ranked Las Brasas and above accompanying them at all times.
• Wolf traders are only permitted 2 day's stay within the Trailside Inn, unless otherwise cleared by Leadership.

Wolves that do not adhere to the stringent rules laid out by Del Cenere's culture should fully be expected to be chased out of the territory, if not harassed or attacked for their presence. High content wolf hybrids (over 50%) who linger at the borders will be turned away, regardless of coyote or dog heritage.

1.2  Cultural Expectation

Hard working individuals are highly valued amidst Del Cenere's ranks. Individuals are expected to pull their weight, and contribute to the good of the Gang. Members who have not yet proven their merit (Unkindled), are considered in a "probationary" period - they are not permitted housing claims, and are only permitted leave of DCG's borders when accompanied by members ranked Las Brasas or higher.

Tithe

As the word suggests, all individual hauls are expected to turn over one-tenth (10%) to Del Cenere's stores, minimum. Hunts, trades, thefts, etc., are all "taxed" to further the Gang's prosperity.

• Certain exemptions, naturally, exist. You can't donate 10% of a living horse, after all.

Ranking

Characters rank up within the pack on hard-work merit; for example, Enkindled members have multiple occupations, and have readily proven their worth to the betterment of Del Cenere's society, and therefore, hold their own individualistic titles.

Outsiders, if not within Charmingtown (Trailside), must await approval to venture further within pack borders.

Del Ceneren Members ranked El Elegido and up may meet up with prospective joiners and exercise their discretion to welcome new members into the Gang, provided the prospective party has coyote heritage and is under 50% wolf.

Dogs and wolfdog hybrids will need express approval from either the Rey Salvaje or the Comandante in order to join.

Outsiders looking to join the ranks of Del Cenere are expected to either arrange a meeting within Charmingtown, or send up a summoning howl for an Ashen member to answer at the border.

3.1  Semi-Open Border

Charmingtown

Del Cenere possesses an open point of contact to outsiders known as Charmingtown located within the southern of Trailside, hugging the coast of Moosehead Lake.; it serves as a trade hub, and is the easiest accessed point to the territory - but this is not to say that outside influences will not be under a constant watch; further locations within the territory are to be kept secret and away from outsiders - tours may only be held at Leader discretion, and are rare. If trespassers are found across borders without supervision, or at any point save for Charmingtown, they are to be chased off, regardless of intentions.

3.2  Border Patrols and Effigies

Borders are under watch, and regularly patrolled - Outsiders who approach borders are either expected to be redirected to Charmingtown, or turned away. Effigies mark the borders, comprised of frightening 'scarecrow' like figures of bone, scrap pieces of wood, metal, cloth, and other such items. Defacing effigies is prohibited, and will result in expulsion from the borders.
