Sardothien was the first pack in Ithera, long before Pixduas came. This cruel, hostile, and savage pack is located in the mountainous territory. Being Northwest of Pixduas, the average daily temperatures are lower. Any animals who can't tolerate harsh winters will be in jeopardy. Sardothien is being lead by a purebred dire wolf demon, Nero. The alpha doesn't believe in ceremonies like the Pixduas, but he believes that only the strongest survives. Any weaker members will be treated harshly. He isn't one to mess with and won't hesitate to use brute force. The rest of the pack isn't much different. Beware, trespassers, Sardothien is a force to be reckoned with.

Alpha - Alphas (for males) and Alphesses (for females) are known for leading their packs in many different kinds of ways. Some rules fair and just while others rule with an iron fist. Alphas are normally addressed by their rank and name following after. Their word is law and to be taken seriously, do not underestimate them! You can become Alphas in many different kinds of ways, one being either challenge them or once they die and don't have an heir.

Heir - Heirs are normally the offspring of the Alphas that later become the next alphas once the current alphas have retired or died.

Alphas NEED to have heirs to take over.

Guardian - The guardian is a personal guard of the Alphas. When in battle they watch out for the Alphess and her offspring and protect them with their life. You can see them around the Alphas almost always unless stated otherwise. They also help enforce the warriors of the pack. It is not required of them to watch the alpha pairs offspring, however, if they are in danger it is required of them to protect them with their life. They do not leave the Alpha pups unguarded even when the Alphas are being attacked or in battle. There is only two guardians, one of both genders. These wolves are hand chosen by the Alphas.
*Must be earned*
HIGH RANKS
Elites - Elites are higher up in the hierarchy but do not have the same authority level as a delta or beta would. They help out around the pack and lend a paw here and there.

*Must be earned*

SUBORDINATE RANKS
Jaeger - Jaegers are very important. They have to be quick on their feet in order to catch the packs next meal. They specialize in stalking and hunting and sometimes even tracking. Without the Jaegers, the pack would more than likely starve to death. They know the best places to hunt.
Jaeger Emysia ♀
Jaeger Thalia ♀
Jaeger Ike ♂
Warrior - Warrior's are the protectors of the pack, they usually are the first to go into battle and make sure that the pack is safe. These wolves have no qualms when it comes to killing and spilling blood, they usually are bulky and large. Easy to throw their weight around.
Warrior Titan ♂
Warrior Sicarius ♂
Warrior Lucrias ♀
Warrior Wyeth ♂
Shaman - When it comes to wounds, sickness, and herbs these are the wolves to go to. They enjoy helping those around them and taking care of the weak and sick. Without the Shamans the pack would die off. When it comes to their job they can be a bit of a smarty pants with their knowledge in the arts of healing. These wolves are often prepared and calm in tough times.
Shaman Val ♀
Shaman Wisp ♂
Nanny - Nannies are the canines that take care of the packs pups while their parents are away. Pups and cubs often call them just nanny as it's hard to pronounce their full name and rank. Nannies are generally very nurturing and caring wolves who are vigilant. After all, they have a hoard to take care of.
LOWER RANKS
Omega - The omegas are the lowest ranking wolves in the pack, but they are important. They keep the peace between pack members. They also run errands for adult wolves in the pack. They must make sure that the dens are clean and they eat last. If a wolf is in a high or regular rank and they break the rules in their pack, the alpha could immediately give them the omega rank. Omega's also care for any of the pack's offspring. Often in Sardothien Omega's are treated unfairly and seen as the pack's beating bag, Pixduas omega's are treated much more fairly.
Omega Fenic ♀
Pupil - Pupils are the young of the pack or otherwise known as apprentices. The pack trains them as a whole, however, they will be trained by wolves of the rank they want to go into when they grow up. Pupils range between ages of 6 months to 2 years old before they do an assignment that the alpha will task them with.
OUTSIDER RANKS
*Must be purchased*
Rogue - Rogues are the definition of troublesom for pack animals. They are rude, aggressive, and annoying to almost anyone besides rogues themselves.

Loner Brath ♂
Exile - Exiles are wolves who have broken a law in the packs or have committed some crime against their pack. They are named and labeled 'exile' because they deserted their pack or their pack was kind enough to not kill them.
