Now, there are 3 colonies:

The Thicket Burrows
The Prairie Warren
The Marsh Colony

On to the colony descriptions:

The Thicket Burrows colony lives in your basic woods. They are the most aggressive colony and consider themselves to be the most dominant. They are the biggest colony and have the most members. The buck is the most dominant of this colony and has his choice of doe.

The Prairie Warren is located in a grassy meadow. They are unlike other rabbit colonies because the alpha doe is more dominant than the alpha buck.

The Marsh Colony lives in swampy lands so they have unlimited access to water. Their alpha buck is more dominant than the alpha doe in this colony.

Ranks:

Chiefs/top-ranking rabbits:
The most dominant members of the colony. Dominant rabbits behaviors include: controlling the group, using a greater range of movements, and being more alert. Are the only ones allowed to breed without having to ask (the lower-ranked members must be given permission).

Second-ranking rabbits:
The ones that the chiefs go to in serious situations. If the alphas are not around, these rabbits will take their places.

Other members/lower-ranking rabbits:
All others in the colony. They do whatever is asked of them by the higher-ranked members. When both the chiefs, and the second-ranking members aren’t around, the rest of the colony becomes pure chaos.

Kits:
These are the baby rabbits. They generally will grow fur at a week old, open their eyes at around ten days, and will be weaned at around 3-4 weeks of age. We’ll say they join their rank at about 4-5 months. They join the lower ranking members once they’re old enough. Most kits that join the lowest-rank will be treated much better than the others (because most kits are the alphas’ offspring).

Loner rabbits:
Are rabbits that don’t belong to any colony. These rabbits are allowed to go wherever and do (basically) whatever they want. Loners will usually have a backstory, so they will have (normally) either lost their colony, or they were kicked out. Only one (1) loner is allowed per BYC member. Some loner rabbits will also join colonies, with the chiefs’ permission, but not all will. New members are often fought by the alphas and treated badly by all other members.

Each colony has one (1) buck chief and one (1) doe chief. Each colony also has 1-2 pair(s) of second-ranking rabbits, so there will be 1-2 does and 1-2 bucks, but most only have one (1) pair.

If you are interested in being a predator, read this (Written by @Noah P) :
(Ok, enemy rules: part one
No chomping people without member who made the rabbit's permission. Unless, of course, rabbit gets within 15 bounds of den. They would kind of deserve that.
Family packs (Coyotes) are controlled by two people only, let's just start out with one pack at the most, otherwise this will be chaos.
Foxes can have up to 5 in a family, controlled by two people if more than one fox.
Raccoons come in 3 ( maybe 2?) or less. Preferably one person per coon.
Raccoons are semi expendable, meaning if yours get blown away, you can do another one.
Hawks and eagles will be discussed later.
Rats seem to already be in play as a kind of background noise.
Ways to get rid of enemies:
Man/two legs, (lead them to traps or into the garden/chicken coop [REVENGE!!!])
Other enemies ((coons could get chomped by Coyotes ))
Hit by a tractor or car
Foxes come as red and grey. Grey are small and can fit in tight places + climb trees, if three (3) or more rabbits gang up on them, they will leave. They mainly get rats and mice, or birds, and can be convinced to not eat you, be on the same side even, with enough food. Over time, you can build trust with an individual fox, and they will not attempt to harm you or you warren, but will still raid otber warrens.They mainly come as just one, family packs are uncommon. Mainly attack during dawn and dusk.

Red are bigger, stronger, and harder to deter. Bribes must be massive, and even then may not work. Climbing is not very easy for them. They may be deterred by 5 or more rabbits teamed up with a grey fox. Red foxes may attempt do dig kits and rabbits out, so warrens under tree roots are safest.
Red foxes may attempt to kill as many rabbits ad they can in a sitting.
They may be killed by coyotes, and attempt to raid chicken coops, sometimes being killed by man in the process. Leading them towards man is tje best way to eliminate them. Family packs are more common in red foxes than grey foxes. May attack at all times.

Coyotes frequent Rabbit burrows once a week to two weeks, and may attack by day.
Coyotes usually come in no fewer than two. They will attempt to run rabbits down, and dig up dens. They are most often killed by man. Coyotes will leave if no kills are made anywhere in two weeks.
if they kill a deer, they will not attack for a week.

Raccoons are a threat mainly to young rabbits, cannot be bribed, and their biggest weakness is the man's garden and chicken coop. Attacks are supprise grabs. full grown rabbits may be able to bite and escape. 2 Raccoons is common

Weasels, stoats, minks, and ferrets:
these may be deterred by 2 or more rabbits. They may kill adult rabbits, but mainly infiltrate burrows to grab kits.
A trusted Grey fox is the best way to get rid of them.

Other Rules:

*Please try to keep it as realistic as possible (with a few exceptions).
*Please only control your own characters.
*Please do not use characters until they are approved by either @Barred Rock Mama or @The-White-Elephant
*No killing others’ characters without that members’ permission.

This RP takes place 10 years after the previous story. We are on the 4th generation. IF you want your character to be related to the previous rabbits, please say so in the form. I will not list all the options; you must go back to the previous thread.

Veritas studied the unconscious fox. Fett, take him down... Actually he won't fit. Get your scouts to drag him over there," she pointed to a nearby tree, "and have him tied and muzzled Incase he reacts aggressively when he wakes. I'll go get the healer myself."

Fett nodded and he and a few buck's and doe's dragged the fox to the tree, tying him there with hibiscus bark from a nearby garden they had recently raided.

Veritas returned quickly dragging a doe and herbs behind her. "Alright, you, fix him. And make it fast. I don't want him dying on us." She watched the doe get to work then muttered under her breath, "He'll make an excellent ally for our oncoming war." A sudden though occured to her and she remembered the prisoners they had taken earlier that day. Deciding to check on them before nightfall, she hurried into the prison burrows, growling at any rabbit that came within an arms reach of her. "How much do you matter to your chief?" She asked once she reached the cell Vetch and Caspian we're being kept in. She spoke through the small air hole in the stump.

Fett leapt our of the burrow, following Vera. She viciously ran up to the pair of foxes and the loner rabbit. "Is he dead?" She asked at the sight Reynard.
“No dead.” Laufen said. Her ears were pinned back as to not look aggressive.
🤣🤣🤣

“He was shot twice.” Laufen informed Veritas. “She hopped out of the thicket and sat in front of the chief doe. “I brought him over here, he said that he was in my debt- before he passed out.”
Fett nodded and he and a few buck's and doe's dragged the fox to the tree, tying him there with hibiscus bark from a nearby garden they had recently raided.

Laufen wondered what she meant by ‘war’. “Chief Veritas?” She said, staying still. “I- I tried to join your Warren a few months ago, remember? Laufen?” She sat up as straight as she could, hoping to possibly impress the chief doe, even though she was smaller than any rabbit but the kits. “I was actually coming today to see if you’d let me join your Warren. I can, um, help you with your ‘war’.”

*poppy was taking a nap in her little burrow. She had had a night mare the night before that had her up super early in the morning. So when sunlight actually peeked over the horizon, the young doe was still quite tired.*

*freya had relaxed some now that the humans left.*

Freya: why exactly are rabbits helping a fox??

*lu a slowly crept out of the burrow and went to find her companion.*
 
Fett watched carefully.

Veritas scribbled a crude message on the bark in front of her:

"Chief Roger,
I have in my prison burrows 2 of your second ranking rabbits who unexpectedly attacked us, a doe and a buck. All I ask in return is your loyalty and the Prairie Warren. Answer quickly. I will not hesitate to make things rather uncomfortable for our guests.
Sincerely,
The Great Chief Veritas of The Thicket Burrows"


Vera chuckled to herself, knowing it was a stretch but she might as well try. The Prairie Warren was much too bonded together for her liking. She also believed Roger wasn't the brightest rabbit and hoped he would act on his feelings, not just mind. She hopped out of her burrow, spotting Twister and the fox immediately. "YOU!" She looked to Twister and pointed in front of her, ignoring the fox as it obviously meant no harm. She would deal with trespassing foxes later. "Come here!" Vera ordered.

(Hey Hey Hey, Roger ain't dumb :lol:

So what do I do?)

(@Barred Rock Mama, I doubt someone would wake up quick after two shots.
Ouch. Might what to do something? Oh, remember man might be back soon.
