There are several types of bear one can play as. Alpha Male, Alpha Femal, Beta Male, Beta Female, Head Elder, Elder, Head Elder Apprentice, Hunters, Fighters, Learners, Cub-Mothers, and Cubs.
Some, only one can play as, while some can have multiple players. You can see if the type of bear you would like to play as is taken by scrolling down. Before doing this, however, it is advised that you look over each of these categories, what they mean, and what they do by following this link.

If you read through everything in the link above, you will know how a bear is named. However, for those of you who didn't, and for general refrence, it is also posted directly below:
{ Black Snow Bjorn }
Snow – Mother's first name, given when bear is a cub.
Black – Bear's first name, given when he is a Learner.
Bjorn – Tribe name, given right to use it when bear is a Fighter/Hunter.
Snow – Mother's first name, given when bear is a cub.
Black – Bear's first name, given when he is a Learner.
Bjorn – Tribe name, given right to use it when bear is a Fighter/Hunter.
Obviously, when making a cub, it will only have one name, its mother's first name. When making a learner, it will have its mother's name as well as it's own name, and anything older than that will have "Bjorn" added to the end. Keep this in mind when creating your character.
Similar to creating Kits or Apprentice cats, if you know what you'd like your Cub to be named when it grows up, you can add it in (parentheses). Otherwise, your name will be chosen for you.

There are many races of bears. The ones below are the only ones you are allowd to play as. No exceptions. Slots are filled depending on race and gender. If all the slots of one category are filled up, you can not apply as a bear of this section. If all slots of all bear races are filled, and people would still like to create more bears, more slots will be added as necissary.

Similarly, there are only a certain number of slots for each position in a tribe. If the slot is filled, you cannot take it. If the name of the slot is + like this +[/i] it means that you must PM a filled out tryout form to Osaka to try and get the spot, and she will either accept or reject you. If the name of the slot is like this it means that you can simply create a new thread and post your application there.

[Here, you must write a sample that is 500 words or less, role playing as your bear. They can be doing anything. Please try and use tribe terms or activities in your post. You can include other bears that you've made up just for this, as long as it's only from the point of view of yours. Do NOT say that you didn't have a word counter, so it might only be 100 words. Go to the thread where you got this form. Underneath the form will be several links to several online, copy-and-paste word counters. There is no excuse for not counting the words in your post.]

================================================================
there is no need to fill all the slots. that's only in case we get lots of people who want to be bears. DO NOT try and fill them
for now, each player can only play as three bears at a time. If you're looking to be a cub-mother, I'd advise seeking out someone to play as a few of your cubs. Who, by the way, will fill cub spaces.
