Wolf set free WIP - CHAPTER TWO

SMALL UPDATE

I added a brief Bela POV right at the very start of chapter 1. It shows the alpha’s reaction to the different types of MC, and I hope you enjoy it!

I also want to assure everyone that I am working on the next chapter, though it requires a bit more time and planning due to more branching.

Anyway, thank you to everyone who left a kind comment, hope you will keep enjoying the game!

Played through the update to see the changes and i enjoyed them and my biggest gripe has also been fixed as well so great job. :smiley: just a few typos remain amongst the three playthroughs i did but they are minor at this point and i am looking forward to seeing the next chapter when you put it forth to be seen.

I love what there is so far! Even though our wolf was taken when they were young, I hope there will be a chance to add to the pack things from what we remember of our old pack. Such as amulets, potions, a martial art like sambo, and/or a unique tradition like a werewolf version of kwanza etc.

My MC is an Omega wolf but his human form is very short and petite so I can’t wait to see the pack’s reaction to this big wolf shifting into this tiny human. :joy:

I really love what I’ve seen of this so far, the group feels so connected and warm while still taking different stances on things like one would expect. Can’t wait to meet Indigo and get to spend more time with the rest of the pack, this has my favorite tone of any werewolf IF I’ve read so far.

I wonder if we’ll get a job in the pack. I’m hoping I can be something like a mystic or moon priest or leader of ceremonies or something like that. I like that they kinda sorta can use magic through blessings of the gods or what not is cool.

I wouldn’t say your MC will get a proper job per se. In a way, the only job they have is to heal - something the pack and especially Bela will make clear. MC can have a role in the pack, when they are feeling a bit better and will be better integrated, though I am still brainstorming those.

My current ideas are of MC helping with the trees and work in the pack land (especially during seasonal harvest), MC doing more of a guarding work for the pack territory (perhaps caused by a bit of remaining paranoia), MC being attached to Raine as she works on woodworking and metalworking, or MC taking primarily care of the pups.

In regards to the moon and the rituals, your MC can either have a more passive role or a more active one - depending on your choices, if they are more in tune with the moon or not!

As long as there’s more pups and cuddles I’ll be a happy doggo =3

You can bet!

On the topic of pups. I decided I am going to fix MC’s general adoring nature for them. Meaning that there won’t be choices for your MC to dislike the pups.

This is both because it would be a bit complicated coding wise having those choices, but mainly because it isn’t credible for MC, given their history as a neglected pup, their current starvation for contact and comfort, and their overall base characterisation.

I’m fully ready to be happy-go-lucky rainbows & unicorns when it comes to the pups, but if anything happens, going full doom & gloom, fire & brimstone.

I read this last night and I have to admit, I teared up at some of the descriptions of the MCs mental state. I also teared up when the pups were revealed…and I teared up at the cupcake scene
What I’m trying to say is I really liked this so far, and I’m very excited for more.

This has so far been my favorite depiction of packs in any werewolf IF I’ve read, and while I haven’t read many werewolf IFs, I know that this is my favorite. I usually stick with vampires, I’m sorry :cry:

Poll time!
Who are you playing as?

  • alpha
  • gamma
  • omega

I am curious to see the results on the forum and whether they will be similar or different to the poll I made on Tumblr. Despite the work, it is very satisfying to write and plan all the little variations depending on MC’s role. It adds replayability too despite how linear the story is.

could’ve used a 4th option ‘All of them’ because I like trying all the options for fun.

@lighter_night i agree with @E_RedMark lol ive played them all and enjoyed each one but if had to choose hmmm i would go with gamma but defintly playing all three everytime lol

Yup! I have also played as all of them, loved all of them, though gamma was the first one I choose simply because I had never seen that one before.

It makes me happy that so many people are playing all of them, because soon the dedicated scenes will start to diverge even more (small spoiler: each type will be closer with a different pup).

The poll results, until now at least, show the same distribution I saw on tumblr. I wonder if the alpha being so low is due to their unusual size or the fact that there is already an Alpha in the pack, while there are no omegas or gammas.

in my opinon alpha is great but like you say there is already one in the pack and for me its not very much tempting to be an alpha , gamma i never did hear before and was fresh for me.
Size i dont think does matter its like in real life never mistake small things for weak they are often stronger than you think^^
for me personal i like to be a little bit the caution one so gamma fits perfect for me, but what ever you plan for the future i will in the end run all routes and if they even have differnt ways more reason to play all routes.

and the wolf games where already out often you are just a alpha or become one in the end so they 2 differnt types you also brought in is a fresh wind and i like it pretty much, but thats my opinon on it cant speak for another people
