SARNES- HEIRARCHY
[/center][/color]Beodan- Beodan, in other words, means command and are what you call the higher ranking of the Sarnes pack, like the nobles. This includes the Raedan, Anwelda, and Beridan.
Raedan - The Raedan, meaning ruler, of the Sarnes pack acts as alpha male with authority over all others, aside from the Anwelda who is his mate. Also, the alpha male will dictate when the pack needs to hunt and will settle all disputes within and without (when concerning a pack member and another pack.) In his absence the Anwelda takes his place and hands her duties to a Beridan, but in the Anwelda’s absence he will adopt her duties with his own. This position cannot be taken unless bestowed or formally fought over in front of the rest of the pack.
Anwelda - The Anwelda, also meaning ruler, is mate to the Raedan and alpha female of the Sarnes pack. She also has authority over all but her mate, and is expected to provide the pack with knowledge and the secrets of enemies. Though it is not required, she helps the alpha male and takes over in his steed if he is missing and abandon her own for the Beridan. Along with this she often interprets the Raedan’s orders and modifies them to her liking for the hunt and fight and takes on as a leader for both of these as the Raedan’s responsibility lies more in thought.
Beridan - A Beridan means to be an over taker, which is what Beridan do incase of the Anwelda and Raedan’s nonappearance. They can be any gender, but there are only two and of which are assigned to either the Anwelda or the Raedan as a personal assistant. Beridan are often put in charge of the Bilewit of the pack when not personally helping their alphas, and are usually related or good friends with the wolf they serve.
Herian-Heiran translates to obey, as they all must pay heed and execute the dictations of the Beodan. They are middle and lower ranking pack members.
Halian - A Halian is a learned wolf with the knowledge of healing. He doesn't possess powers yet he is very good in getting the physical wounds of any hurt wolf healed.
Nieten - The Nieten are the equivalent of warriors almost. They are much more tough and patrol the borders rather picking fights with anything than waiting for it. They are swift in battle, strong, and have the bite of steel.
Cræft - Cræft are spies. They are the runners and the fastest in the pack with silent paws. Having not much jaw power their ability of eavesdropping and going undercover is very advanced.
Bilewit- Bilewits are amongst the lower ranks, and the less experienced at their jobs. They must execute and obay the dictations by both the Beodans and the Herians. They include Halians, Nietens, and Cræfs.
Idel- Idels a are equivelent to the Siklas of the pack; they are the youngest and untrained. They may be the pack's scapegoats, and are often picked on. However, not all Vargs placed in this position, stay in this postion. They can be promoted to higher ranks (though they may not skip any ranks). They exicute orders from all ranks.
