Hello and welcome to Blood and Ice, a little jump in fox rp. This is actually the third iteration of this, the first being in early 2013 on the old forums and the second a story rather than a roleplay. I wanted to give it a fresh start in the new forums with a new group of people, though I doubt many of you remember this little jump in way back in the day! Like I mentioned before, it's a jump in: no forms required, just be courteous of others' groups and find a good place to enter into the plot.

Humans are expanding their cities, leaving less and less for the other wild creatures out in the forest. Land that could once hold many territories in peace now forced families onto other's lands in hopes of survival, leading to many fights and even more deaths. Two prominent families rose: Aceruns and Cotes, both with a proposition of peace. They spoke of a union of families, a pack. Slowly they gathered more families to their side until many of the once separate families were united into one large pack, sharing the land and the few resources within. To this day, the pack remains strong, but still very separate, with many remaining in dens still sorted by family in the main camp. Aceruns and Cotes hold what power there is to speak of, although the two that once had very similar views now battle for influence in the group. It is a precarious balance, the pack fragile, any small issue ready to break the weak bonds holding all of these families together.

Family against family, fox against fox. Aceruns and Cotes are the largest and most influential of the families in the pack, and power is split equally between them. Yet both sides wish for complete dominance, although both also know war would break the whole pack in two, leaving the winner with nothing. A battle for control is underway, each trying to garner more influence than the other without breaking the entire system apart.
The time of prophecy grows near: the coming of the white fox that will herald the leader of a new era. The Prophet Vella had spoken. A fox will come with the first snowfall, their fur white as the snowflakes falling from the sky. They will come alone, but bring many both fortune and sorrow. The white fox will lead us to a new era.

The pack consists of any species of fox, so feel free to join in. Just be sure that if your fox is of a rarer specie, it would be in a family alongside others of that specie. Red or grey foxes, being common, will have many families within their specie. Technically the roleplay will be placed in North America, but any specie will be allowed despite how it would be unrealistic.
Your fox CANNOT be pure white due to plot reasons.
Be thoughtful when jumping in; don't spotlight when doing it. Come in someplace where you can roleplay with others and not insert into someone else's plot without permission.
Conversely, be inclusive. Okay so maybe an Acerun group wouldn't let a Cotes fox in, but that's characters. try not to exclude a person from the roleplay, it's only casual after all.
