Welcome to...
Mannix!
"My, my, stepped into my domain, have we? Oh, now you've done it; are you ready for the torture and suffering? Kidding. Welcome to Mannix, kid.
Here is how it'll go; read the information, understand our hierarchy, ask questions if need be and correctly fill out the joining form. Doesn't sound to difficult now does it? Nah, didn't think so.
...
Why are you still standing here? Get going!"
Information!
Simple : These dogs are made up of all species;
wolves, canines, etc. They are neutral in their behavior and don't
really look for trouble.
Rankings!
Most of these ya'll should know, but I'll add a little description just in case ^_^
1. Alphas
The Alphas are the head canines of the pack and with the sole purpose of making every appropriate decision for the Mannix pack, they are the most trusted in respected individuals. The Alphas are not obligated to be a mated pair but must work together flawlessly. Their word is final over any other and cannot be argued; except by the other high officials. An Alpha is the also only one permitted to exile a member for their wrongdoing.
2. Betas -
A Beta is the second-in-command to the Alpha, considered their 'right hand paw'. Although in the end, a Beta may not have as much power as the Alpha, they are still the runner-up in the hierarchy and must be treated with the utmost respect. Betas are not allowed to argue with the Mannix's leaders' decisions but they are also the only ones seen fit to temporarily take charge if need be; and if the Alpha(s) are unable to return to their position and uphold their duties to the fullest, Betas will replace them immediately. Betas may not exile members but are allowed to punish them temporarily until their official penalty is decided.
3. Deltas -
Scouted from the everyday subordinate, to be a Delta is considered being a high-rank in training. Future Betas and Alphas, if there is no heir for the latter, can be chosen from these few students. Ranging in age, each Delta has a mentor, although they do not need to 'pass' this training to start their daily duties. Deltas oversee subordinate activity, the training of juveniles and help accept members. Deltas are neither allowed to exile or punish but may make sure others know their place should they become too bold.
4. Epsilons -
Considered the healers of the pack, being an Epsilon is not an easily earned title. One must be able to not only assist in wounds, illness, and the daily observation of pregnant females, but must also be able to daily protect the weak and injured. Mannix may run without an Epsilon, but their skills are heavily desired.
5. Agrioi (Agrio/Argia | Pm for this rank) -
Though the Agrioi are a dire group, their services are often either frowned upon or feared, perhaps both. Not often used, unless necessary, a member ranked under their order are used for almost any purpose, be it as an; assassin, spy, kidnapper, or merely a messenger between packs. The Agrioi are only known by the Epislons and higher and are often disguised in Mannix as common subordinates.
6. Subordinate -
Warrior, protector, whatever they need be, a subordinate is the most common ranking although their importance never wavers. Subordinates are expected to search for other members and bring them to the higher officials for acceptance, or, if unsure whom is worthy, simply give out information on their pack, spread the word if it were, and act well behaved.
7. Juveniles & Pups -
Either the offspring of members or simply young recruits found around, juveniles and pups are ranked just above the Omegas. Each Juveniles is given a mentor to both observe the daily life style and learn important lessons from; their mentor does not always define their ranking. Pups are expected to be cared for by mother until six months of age and may only leave pack territory alone with permission from both their parents and Alphas.
8. Omega -
Having broke the simple rule, shamed Mannix or any other intolerable crime, a canine labeled as an omega is the lowest ranking there is to be. Either out of generosity, pity or the Alphas' personal believe they still may hold worth, an omega still remains a member of Mannix, although they are seen as weak, impotent and ignorant. An omega is not a permanent title, a canine may leave it if they proof their worth and their crime is forgiven. Despite being looked down upon, an omega still has a worthy job to uphold; to break quarrels between members and lighten tension.

Information!
Simple : These dogs are made up of all species;
wolves, canines, etc. They are neutral in their behavior and don't
really look for trouble.
To begin, the Mannix are lead by the jet-black [no pun intended] wolf-hybrid, Jett.
Known for his heightened abilities of speed and agility, it's hard to believe this fast-witted,
charming male in the Alpha of his own group. This Alpha is not without experience,
having lead not only a minor pack in the past but having grown up under a notorious
gang leader, whom is now deceased, and shouldnever be underestimated.

In Mannix, the Alpha maintains an unique blend of a hierarchy, sharing the leniency
of a dog band yet the ranking and priority of a wolf pack. While dogs
learn to hold themselves with more pride, extend their beliefs on
loyalty and govern themselves under a somewhat stricter ranking, wolves
are taught to become less dominant, territorial and to accept others
easily. Beginning on the pack's morals, loyalty to Jett in one the most
important guidelines to uphold. While a member is free to roam and
mingle with loners and other pack members alike, at the end of the day,
they must be able to commit with their full abilities and submit their
life be it ever needed, just like their fellow members and Alpha. The
second priority to Jett and his pack is maintaining peace with others.
Disliking other canines is understandable, but Jett makes each member
realize that their actions reflex on the family. The main concern is to
never bring harm or threats upon their family. Reason for war and battle
are of course to be avoided but never will Jett have his members
surrender for the worst. Lastly, Jett believes in equality. This does
not refer to ranking but instead the fact that each species, gender,
etc. are the same in being. Each come canine comes from their own
backgrounds, running from their demons or searching for meaningful
adventure to fill their days, but all will be accepted for Mannix,
should they be prepared to protect the family and spend
their last days amongst in their company.
