Pack Ranks
The pack of the Shattered Mountain operates on a detailed but relatively lax social hierarchy.
Alpha - The pack leader. Often there are more than one, as the title is not held by force nor fear.
Gamma - The healer of the pack. Also doubles as a religious interpreter. There are only ever two at a time, along with their kappas.
Delta - Pack peacekeepers. They have the authority from the alphas to put an end to silly squabbles that may arise between pack members that aren't worth an alpha's time.
Epsilon - Pack messengers and occasional errand boys.
Sigma - Guardians of the pack, they dedicate their lives to the safety of everyone within. Often more than four present.
Lambda - Hunters for the pack, trained to kill prey swiftly without pain.
Kappa - Apprentice of any of the above ranks that has yet to become a fully-fledged wolf. Will ascend to their proper ranks at their respective milestones.
Omicron - Nursing mothers of the pack.
Beta - A "normal" member of the pack. Help out where they can, usually eat last unless given a specific honor.
Omega - A puppy who will grow up to be a beta.
Iota - New pack member who is not trusted enough to have a proper rank.
Theta - Dishonored member of the pack, allowed only to remain if visibly disfigured so everyone knows of their crime. May leave at any time and be expected to never return.
