.THE TERMS.
those little words that you haven't quite figured out yet

1) Aiela (Ale-ya) – The peninsula (and islands off shore) that CMM takes place on. (see map for more details)
Also known as: “The Lands” or “Land”
Common Misspellings: Aiella, Aeala

2) Unknown - Beyond what has been searched by any wolves of Aiela, ever, stretches all the way to the mainland and beyond. (see map for more information)

3) Elemental - The pack of elite wolves that watches over The Faiths (look @ #5 for definition of “The Faiths”). These wolves live to be up to 3000 years old, all of which are Universal Champions and are proficient in one or more types of elemental magic (White, Fire, Water, Air, Earth).

4) Titan - The pack of elite wolves that watches and commands The Darks (look @ #6 for definition of “The Darks”) These wolves live to be 3000 years old, and all are proficient in Dark Magic, and usually are Universal Champions. This elite group is mostly blood related but there are a few exceptions to the pack that have gotten in.

5) The Faiths - “The Faiths” are made up of the Order and Chaos faiths. These two faiths are watched over by the Elementals (look above @ #3 for more information). These are the original faiths of Aiela when it was first established.

6) The Darks - “The Darks” were created by the Titans after being pushed out of Aiela by the Elementals in the “Great Divide” (see #14 for more information). The Darks are only made up of those of the Dark Faith. Higher ranker wolves are given Dark Magic by the Titans when needed. These wolves came back to Aiela to take Aiela over along with the Titans just after the first Spy, Aria, was killed.

7) Terror - When a wolf of the Dark Faith does not successfully complete a mission before their death, they have the possibility of becoming a Terror. A Terror is the dark essence of the wolf unleashed; they’re like a shadow, with red, blazing, burning eyes and no solid form. They can ride the wind, and drive most animals away. Their shrieks are enough to drive one mad! They can also become invisible but those with acute senses and that have any sort of magic, or those of the dark faith can see them. These minions live in caverns under “The Grave of the Dove”; they can only be killed by magic.

8) Ghost - Basically any wolf of a faith other then Dark can become a “Ghost” after they die if they are not at rest. These “Ghosts” can go anywhere in Aiela they wish, but most go to Thunderhead to rest in peace as much as they can. Only can be seen by GhostStalkers, and can only be killed by other Ghost or Terrors.

9) Reaper - Description coming soon, provided by Kari.

10) Order - These wolves under the order faith are very traditional and believe in a noble way of battling, much like a knight and chivalry. Their pack system is much more specific and organized compared to the chaos system. There are more ranks in the order system then there are in the chaos system basically. The order packs are also less likely to begin a fight since they believe in compromise and diplomacy more the shedding of blood. Although exceptions to this have happened (see version 2-Chapter 2 for more information)

11) Chaos - These wolves are pretty much the opposite of the order wolves. Their beliefs are made in blood and their battles fought with lies and cheats. Their pack system is far less advanced then the order’s system and the ranks are crude and simple. These wolves are more likely to begin a fight seeing as they believe that the order wolves are a disgrace to the wolven kind with their noble beliefs and diplomatic ways. Chaos wolves are usually insane, or are just plain blood thirsty, very cocky.

12) Dark - the darks are the re-started army of the Titans. All the dark wolves are bent on taking down the faiths and elementals and reclaiming the land of Aiela for themselves. All dark wolves are a lot like chaos wolves in beliefs but dark wolves are not as insane and blood thirsty as most chaos packs. Dark wolves are tactical and have a regal air about them. Their pack system is just as highly developed as the order packs and their alpha’s are well trained. Very upper class, and very well raised.

13) Eremo Borea - An old band of loners was given a pack land by the Elementals in Aiela after their sudden arrival just before The Darks assent to power. This pack has since separated and the members have not been heard from.

14) The Great Divide - When the pack that originally founded Aiela, split into two drastically different sides. One side became The Titans and started the dark faith, the other became the Elementals and they started two faiths Order and Chaos. There was a great battle in which the Elementals drove back the Titans out of Aiela and into the Unknown. (For a more detailed story see the Tale section)
