THE BONEBOUND of Canis.

SUMMARY
A family born from the yawning grave and enduring through the cycles past, The Bonebound is less of a kingdom with a patriarch and more of a simple family wishing to simply survive and find comfort with one another. They exist to take care of the bones, respecting them and seeing into their fortunes and secrets. They are rather isolated, preferring to seek assistance only when necessary and to only respond to aggression, not make it.

HIERARCHY
The Bonebound are an egalitarian group where each member, King or Bound, is held to equal standards of importance. In this manner, they resemble a tribe. However, as it becomes necessary, the King takes less of a symbolic role and more of one properly resembling a leader. However, he is no tyrant and listens dutifully to each of his members and cares for their well-being as any leader should.

The Bone King — Essentially, more or less, a title. Auré considers himself to be equal to his fellow Bonebound. He simply is the one who usually calls meetings and leads Binding Ceremonies. As times call for it, however, he takes a grander leading role and seeks to be a benevolent protector of his own.

Bonebound — The heart and soul of the clan, these are Gembound who have been truly accepted into the family and serve whatever purpose they wish to. Many carry titles outside of being Bonebound, such as being The Bonecaster or The Kinsguard, to better describe what duty they perform.
            — The Bonecaster (Giggle)
            — The Kinsguard (Eythan)
            — The Firefly (Auré)

Bound — Fledgling members of the Bonebound who have yet to prove themselves as part of the family and loyal; they may, additionally, be young children (1 cycle old) either adopted or harbored by the Bonebound. ALL MEMBERS WILL BEGIN AS BOUND.
            — Eli
            — Aries
            — Bremen

So, essentially, the Bonebound will be rebooting once a few threads are complete and Auré turns four cycles old! In the meantime, we need a few more members to get the family started. This thread is for the express purpose of character-gathering and planning threads for Auré to meet these characters and invite them to the founding of the group!

All characters interested in joining the group must be for IC reasons only. The Bonebound is meant to be a family and that means commitment. Please do not throw characters into the group for the sake of doing so. I'm definitely expecting for Auré to meet and befriend all characters offered up, because he wouldn't just invite some random person into the group. Again, it's an IC family!
