Flowers are blooming in the fiels, the trees are green with new leaves, and perhaps most importantly, the prey has returned. The weather is still cool but quickly warming up, and sunny days alternate with light showers.
Breeding season: no
Birthing Season: yes

Plot Updates
The evil spirit Angel has finally been defeated, with the help of two brave wolves who sacrificed themselves to the cause, Tristan and Zyattiath. Those wolves poisoned during the ordeal have returned to their original state, with only mild weakness that will quickly fade, leftover from the strange magic. But with each pack's ranks decimated, the disappearance of the spirits, and the lands in disarray, drastic changes were made. The Zehr and Caladur have combined, as have the Lai'no and the Tyrehl, and the Da'Lith and the Erkeni. The Veren have retreated to the neutral lands, their former territory taken by the newly powerful Calazehr.

In a fight, there is always a high chance of people godmodding. It's unavoidable, when people want their character to win. So, how do we avoid cheating on the part of both the attacker and the defender?
Here's how it goes.
Attack
The attacker posts their attack. They must describe their attack, going into as much detail as possible. Detail is vital at this point, as you have to get across to both the defender and the Fight Mod exactly what it is you're doing.
In your attack, you can't say you hit. You can say, "Bob bit at Bill," but not, "Bob bit Bill". "Bob lunged at Bill," but not "Bob tackled Bill".
Example Post: (Much more detail needed!)
Bob growled, enraged at Bill's comments. Without any warning, he launched himself at Bill, fangs aiming for Bill's throat. He attacked from less then two feet away, giving Bill little time to react to the surprise attack.
Defense
Now it's the turn of the defender, in this example Bill. He will post his wolf's reaction the Bob's attack, how he went about avoiding getting bitten. Once again, detail is vital, as it can be the difference between evading and having the attack land. Make sure you say exactly how you would avoid the attack. However, you can not say you actually suceeded in avoiding the attack, just as Bob couldn't say he actually bit Bill.
Example Post: (Much more detail needed!)
Bill saw Bob start to move, and realized he'd pushed the other wolf too far. In a flash Bill threw himself sideways to avoid those deadly teeth.
Judgement
So, now that both the attacker and the defender have had their say, the Fight Mod will decide whether or not the attack landed, and, if so, how bad the wound is. This decision will be based off of how well the attack is described, and general feasibility (would this happen in rl?). Do not argue with the Fight Mod, as they have the final say. Bribing them with cookies is not allowed. If you are really curious as to their reasoning, you may send them ONE personal message on the subject, politely inquiring as to why they made that decision.
Example Post:
Fight Mod: Bob's attack lands on Bill's shoulder instead of neck. It's a medium deep wound and Bob's teeth can hold or not, Bob's call.
Now the defender goes back and edits their post to reflect the Fight Mod's verdict.
Example Post: (Original edited, not reposted)
Bill saw Bob start to move, and realized he'd pushed the other wolf too far. In a flash he threw himself sideways to avoid those deadly teeth. He didn't move fast enough- no surprise, with how close Bob had attacked from- and the other wolf's jaws caught at his shoulder. Bill twisted and tried to bite back, aiming for Bob's muzzle.
Then the process is repeated, with Bill the attacker now instead of Bob.
