-History
Before humans, there were wolves. Wolves; the great, the noble, the brave, the strong and the smart. No one could defy their awesome power over the other animals, not until man invaded the lands. Wolves were driven back and almost pushed to extinction; but they adapted. And quickly.
Wolves grew large and deadly; they lost all of their noble traits and became ruthless killers; all mercy and kindness gone. Man grew to fear the beasts that hunted them down like the humans had done them, an eye for an eye all thought. Humans and wolves died needlessly in battles that were pointless. Both races suffered and grew to hate each other even more, their hearts turning black; they were unaware to the pain and destruction they were causing.
But not one wolf; Ylva. She was beyond beautiful and many wanted her, but after they learned of her 'insanity', they shunned her. She believed the battles could end if the humans just left, the other wolves knew humans were greedy and wouldn't. They called her insane and soon she was kicked out of the pack lands. She wandered for two years before thinking up a plan, a deadly plan...
Ylva, being a cunning wolf, decided to lure the humans into the woods and then lure the three great packs of the hills, fields and mountains. The humans had brought weapons; thinking they were after one large, pretty wolf; but the wolves didn’t need to bring anything. Ylva watched from deep within a cave, as the battle started. The wolves killed without mercy, as did the humans and soon almost everyone was dead. Pian flooded through Ylva at the sight of her parents and friends dead.
But before the last 26 wolves were killed, Ylva leaped into the open. With her pure heart, she banished the humans from the lands and looked at the remaining wolves. Blood soaked and near death, she couldn’t help but feel pity for her kind. Once the wolves had seen what pain they had caused, they begged Ylva for help. Ylva refused for a moment, then decided it was the least she could do for her once noble kind.
Ylva granted each wolf a different trait; each had their own power… Their own gift. Some had fire, some water, some ground… After that, the last of Ylva’s strength was drained and she died. Most of the wolves used their powers for good, the others saw chances to kill and rule all. They became known as Ylva's Elements, or Elementals.
Now; other powers also exsist in these times. One wolf, Cailean, and his small group of followers had avoided the battle, knowing Ylva was a cunning and devious wolf. They had watched as their comrads died, they hated Ylva for it and hated the 'blessed' wolves with her powers. Cailean was inraged that Ylva had killed the wolves, then blessed the survivors. So, he set out to make a rival power to that of the blessed.
Soon, they had gained the power of healing, venom, transparency and much more. These powers were to rival Ylva's but they were the same in the same ways. They began to understand the powers and used them against the elementals.
But no power was better than the other.
It really depended on the wolf who had the powers on which was stronger, so Cailean failed in his quest and died a brutal death; at the paws of the venom he had wanted to control so badly. He would go down as one of the greatest venom wolves alive.
The batles kept raging, elementals against 'other powers'. Killings happened constantly and one wolf grew tired of it. Nuntis, a powerful electricity wolf god rouge, stopped one battle after another. Using his powers to stop their destructive paths. Soon, the elementals and other powers confronted the large god, the white wolf only responded. "A power is not a power if used for evil, its a death wish."
The fog over the wolves eyes was lifted once again, they soon began inbredding and living happily. Though there is still some competition between the elementals and the other powers, they now live happily together... For now.
