How does my character talk?
The canines at 'Souls speak a language that has been designated "high speech," or what we know as "human" language. Because 'Souls takes place in Nova Scotia, Canada, most canines speak English. However, foreign characters that originate from different countries are perfectly welcomed; these characters are free to speak French, Italian, German, or whatever language is native to their country of origin. When playing a multilingual or a non-English speaking character, please translate what your character is saying!
Can I talk to birds/fish/whatever?This is a little more complicated. Most lower-end-of-the-food-chain animals speak what is known as "low speech," which is something very few canines take the time to learn. Within this language, the dialects very from species to species and are often garbled and confusing. However, because these two languages are rooted in the same base, small snippets could be understood from the other animal to the canine and visa versa. However, some animals (mostly those who have taken to living with canines) will pick up on the “high speech” and be able to partially or fully, depending on their intelligence, be able to communicate with canines fully. Other large carnivores such as big cats and bears will usually be fluent in "high speech" and are thus able to converse fully with canines.
Can my character be a vegeratian?No. Wolves need three to ten pounds of meat a day to survive, except in periods of famine where they adapt to such. A vegetarian wolf would have to eat fish, at the very least, to survive, and even then they would be weak and unhealthy.
Anything else?If you have any other questions, feel free to post in the Roleplay Related forum or contact an administrator.
