Pure-Crest is a pack that has only been officiated within the last seventy-five years but they are a pack that has been formed together for much longer.
Originally the few families that formed this pack were from England and France and they moved to the states and fully formed in what is now Bellevue Washington, close to the Basho pack.
This pack was created and still follows the rules of "purity" meaning that those who are ruling families of this pack are given hand picked mates or marital partners to continue the next generation to be stronger than the one before it.
Pure-Crest is strictly a werewolf only pack. Hybrids, other werecreatures(including lycans), and vampires aren't even allowed within the territory without there being proper requests of visitors only.Pure-Crest has three "ruling" families:
•The Hunts
•The Fargers
•The FernVales
Each of these families can take the title of Alpha family (depending on who is actually ruling) but currently the FernVale family holds the title of Alpha.Within this pack and the three ruling families the way the next Alpha is picked is by whomever of a generation gets married and births a child first. For example, if a Hunt wolf were to have a child before FernVale they would rise as the next Alpha family and replace the one in charge.
Besides the ruling families this pack is heavily known for their breeding system to which they use to gain allies and bring more wolves into their pack. They are also known for housing expecting mothers of other packs, with a price, to keep them in tip-top shape for when they have their babies.
Within this pack the oddest thing they are known for is their breeding programs to create more efficient, intelligent, or strong wolves who are placed into five "factions":
•Soldier-The guards and fighters of the pack
•Healer-Doctors of the pack
•Farmer-The harvesters of the pack while also the providers of livestock
•Builder-Carpenters
•Breeder- Those who continue pack generations. A breeder has to be above the age of 21 to have children.-----
Pure-Crest is also known for a few other select things, some involving the breeding program that is indoctrinated within their territory.Firstly, to give better context, the "breeding" program is made for select pack members to either leave the pack to join another or for an outsider to join(permanently or temporarily) to make stronger and better wolves than the previous generation. If a hybrid is born, or a wolf too weak, the entire bloodline connected to that young wolf is immediately removed from the pack and replaced with a new family.
This pack is strict with religion as well as outside forces; such as technology- specifically social media. Three churches are within this pack's territory.
Another thing this pack is considered strange over is their belief of "purity". Those who are bitten werecreatures, vampires, humans, and hybrids are heavily shunned by this pack (besides those who have individual thoughts, of course) and are even hurt or murdered if they get too close to the territory.
Pure-Crest wolves are praised more often than not is they have "pure" qualities. This means those who take after actual wolves without strange eyes or fur patterns are seen in higher regards than that of someone slightly more "abnormal" than another.
Though this pack is usually avoided or considered strange overall there is no denial that this strict nature has caused a lot of powerful wolves. The werewolf purity in this pack is something that has created strong, intimidating, and valuable wolves for other packs in search of strengthening numbers.

The Pure-Crest symbol is worn by those who are Soldiers, guards of the pack, as well as Breeders:
These two factions of the pack are considered the most valuable.
Impurities
•An impurity within the pack results in banishment or in some cases death. Some of these death cases also result in public executions depending on the circumstances.
An impurity consists of these things:
Banishment
-Children born without the ruling families permission, or Alpha's permission will result in the entirety of the direct family to leave. (Mother, father, siblings of unconfirmed children.)
-Anyone who produces children with anything outside of the werewolf community within the territory. Such as outsiders or supernatural species that are also outsiders.
-A pack member with physical disabilities such as blindness, any form of being deaf, or severe birth defects that may lead to death at an earlier age. This may seem harsh but this "banishment" comes with an offer to join a pack accepting of them instead of becoming a rouge family.Death
-Anyone who kills a fellow pack member without proper evidence or proof of why they killed them.
-Anyone who SAs a pack member, an outsider(regardless of species), or those within another territory. This death is public and consists of the assailant being placed in the center of the territory until starvation or any other form of death occurs.
