Hello, and welcome to Valley Plains, a Intermediate to a Slightly Advanced* wolf RPG.
As the icy hands of winter enclose the packs in a winter wonderland, the peaceful white snow brings treacherous times upon the packs. Many food supplies run low, as fish are nowhere to be seen in the freezing waters and many rodents hibernate. Luckily, among the many rodents, bears hibernate. So Minds can be somewhat at ease. Though the Medic wolves are far from at ease. They’ve gotten dreams from their ancestors, and what is to come doesn’t look very good for the sake of the packs.
-This is only some of our plot. Please go to the Plots/Idea board to read the rest. Slightly Advanced: Meaning you don't have to post over 300 words. You can post anywhere between 150-200
Weather
Weather: Early Spring Temperature: Its very cool, but the snow is melting, and the sun feels warmer. Mating: YES Birthing: YES
A majority of the snow has melted, and blossoms are peeking through the remainder of the white coating. Wolves are beginning to settle in, but alphas and medic wolves are slightly jumpy due to the continuous dreams of no furs treading on their lands. Each wolf is told to be on guard this spring.

This only Applies to People who have or play Medic Wolves. The list is always here if you forget! ^_^
ALDER Reduces swelling and prevents infection when chewed and applied to a wound. May also be chewed by a wolf with a toothache to reduce pain, swelling, and aid in preventing complications.
ALFALFA Used to prevent tooth decay.
ALOE VERA Use the gel inside of leaves to cure skin problems or burns.
PASQUE FLOWER New shoots are to be eaten, and chewed and applied to the bite of a poisonous animal to stave off the effects of its poisoned bite. Keys (seeds) of the Ash tree may also be consumed to fight the pain caused by a stitch in the side.
BORAGE Leaves and Roots should be consumed to stave off fevers. Seeds and leaves should be consumed by the nursing Queen to increase available milk. Borage should never be used dried, only green.
BRAMBLE TWIGS Chew this to a fine syrup. It helps to sleep.
BURDOCK Leaves may be chewed and applied to wounds that are clear of infection to speed healing. Roots may be chewed and applied to a wound to draw infection from it.

CELADINE Used to strengthen weak eyes.
CHAMOMILE Leaves and Flowers may be consumed to sooth a cat and add to their physical strength.

HONEY Used to sooth the throat. Particularly good for smoke inhalation.
SAXIFRAGE Flowers ease the stomach and can serve as a counter poison. Stems are used to ease coughs and other respiratory problems.
LAVENDER Leaves & flowers are particularly good when eaten for easing pains in head and throat. Inhaling the sent of fresh flowers can also calm the nerves.
LEMMING-BILE Bile from the liver of the lemming may be harvested and used to kill stubborn fleas and ticks. Hard to find (since lemmings go crazy some winters and kill them selves) so the substitute for it would be Deer/Stag-Bile, but doesn't work as well as Lemming-Bile. (as in not all the fleas/ticks will fall off)
POPPY Seeds can be consumed to remove pain and aid is sleep. Flower heads should be consumed together to relive continuous coughs. Petals and Leaves should be chewed to aid in sleep and improve resting.
WOLF FLOWER Leaves, flowers, and Stems should be eaten together to remove worms. Leaves may be chewed to relive joint aches. Flowers should be consumed to remove coughs. Pregnant Wolves should NEVER be given Wolf Flower, for it causes miscarriages.

ROCK WILLOW The root of the Rock Willow holds water that may be dripped into the eyes to help clear blurriness of vision. It could also be applied to dry patches of skin to sooth itches. Small amounts of Rock Willow leaves may be consumed to ease pain, act against inflammation, and to ease diarrhea or fevers.
YARROW Entire plant should be consumed to induce vomiting. Entire plant should be chewed and applied to wounds to relive pain and prevent infection.
