They are trusted especially by the Sovereign and are very dedicated. When there is tension between Odious and another group and a potential battle could break out, these four use their backup accounts to join the other group and to take them down from the inside, giving the Powerful Five information about how the opposing group runs and what their plans are. These four are extremely deadly and specialize in what they do, and are not afraid to go to battle if need be. The four Deltas are the individuals of the pack who specialize in working together to pinpoint threats and to plan battles alongside their higher ranks and the War General.
They organize patrols as well, and take time to get to know each member individually and become friends with everyone.
They serve as replacements for them when they can not be on or available, and host roleplay sessions as regularly as possible. The Czars are all three the third highest rank in the pack, and help to support the hierarchy above them. The Surrogate is usually the Sovereign's mate in most cases, but this does not always occur. However, he/she is not permitted to exile others. The Surrogate are the eyes and ears of the Sovereign and keeps note and evaluates the other pack members. He/she is unchallengable and is permitted to punish any member in the pack, as long as he/she notifies the Sovereign. He/she leads the pack when the Sovereign can not do so, and is expected to be tolerant and understanding of the others that he/she leads under the command of the Sovereign. The Surrogate is the individual of the pack that serves just below the Sovereign as a Beta. This rank is never challengable, and he/she can exile any member and punish any member at any given time. He/she of this rank chooses each rank on his own, picking those who he/she trusts and deems loyal enough to take the rank. The Sovereign's loyalty and dedication to his/her pack is to never be doubted, and their rank is the highest in the pack. The Sovereign is the heart and soul of the pack, and the leader who commands each rank below him/her. The winner recieves a prize from the Alpha themselves. The winner spars against the other winner, and so on. In this game canines will team up in pairs of two and spar eachother. The sparring games is a rare event in Hounds of Odious, and only really happens if the Alpha plans on raiding another group or going to battle with another group.

Myst 3 exile 1.22 trial#
New members of Hounds of Odious will endure a trial period of One Week to prove their loyalty and devotion to the pack as a whole. The Alpha will often adress the pack and speak about memories that he has had about the pack. It is held in the Spirit Caves (Epic Wonders) where the pack feels that the Spirit-Dogs are closest to. Often when the Alpha holds the Great Howl, it is on a full moon. It is a time when the pack gives thanks to the Spirit-dogs an the ancestors. The Great Howl is a tradition that the pack finds to be sacred to them. Not all dogs are forced to go by this religion. This is known as 'hell' for humans, but in a different way. Some even join the Fear-dog if they do wrong in their life. For example, Borzois and Greyhounds join the Wind-dog upon death. The separate categories of spirit-dogs represent what breed of canine goes where. The Sun-dog (sun), Earth-dog (earth), Sky-dog (sky), Storm-dog (storm), Lightning, River-dog (river), Lake-dog (lake), Wildfire (fire), Forest-dog (forest), and Wind-dog (wind) are the spirits that the pack always hear most about. They represent our ancestors, and there is a separate one for each element. Spirit Dogs are the holy beings of Hounds of Odious.
