History of Theria

The Five Winters War and the Unification of Amarok
For five years the unified tribes of the Asenian Expanse fought to liberate the North from the control of the Alabaster Clans. The whites and their advanced weaponry and war constructs had for many years established a foothold in the far north. They still were the dominate power, ruling from their great, crystal, city of Vitstad. The surrounding communities and villages of the north were used as defensive outpost to protect Vitstad. The leader of the Alabaster Clan, Laetner of the Kodie clan thought nothing of throwing away the lives of the lesser kinlings to protect the capital of his fledgling Empire. Adhering to the strict class system that had dominated Noverian society for ages, Laetner consider it the duty of the lessers in his ranks to sacrifice themselves for their betters.

It is believed that this class system was the reason the war could not come to a nonviolent conclusion. The polar bears had long held the position of dominance and rule in Noveria, apparently defeating and subduing the white wolves of Noveria to do so. After their defeat, the wolves of Noveria had their culture destroyed and were made to serve the Polar Bears. With the wolves under foot, the polar bear clans easily conquered all of the Noverian Islands. Considering wolves to be their lessers, they refused to bend or even parlay with the Therian wolfpacks.

Despite the whites suffering several devastating defeats and mass defections as the unified packs of the expanse pushed toward Vitstad, the war would last five years. This was because it is virtually impossible to traverse many areas of the expanse during the deep winter months. The weather allowed the Alabaster Clans to regather their forces and mount clever defensive strategies to stimmy the advancing Therian kinlings.

Leading the wolves during this time was an Imakandi warrior named Akela Akuja. His was an Elioudan bloodline hailing from Amarok. A tactician and warrior without peer. He conquered, merged and allied with many different tribes in order to bring the whites of the northern expanse to heel. After defeating their greatest fighter, the Warrior Chief Iowyn. It is after this victor that the first great howl began. Signifying Akela’s right to rule as the Alpha of Alpha’s.

Despite being made up of various tribes and species. Amarok is lead by a group known as the Council of Alpha Lupi.
