This is something that I just came up with. If you would like to see some of the story not featured, contact me on Wolf-Haven on one of the account listed on my profile.
Long ago every element had its own dimension to itself. There were no differences in the creatures of one dimension except for the range of power they held. No creature knew or remotely believed hat any other dimension existed. That is until the 'gods' of the world had came up with a plan. It was chaos. Rips in the skies of the different dimensions opened up to bleed white light from an unknown land through the tears. The tears grew and grew until they reached the ground. That's when the white light stopped bleeding through to be replaced with what seemed like views of the forests, oceans, deserts, mountains, etc. of the modern earth today in the different dimensions. The creatures grew curious and one by one the dimensions emptied of their creatures. As the creatures went through the tears most lost their elemental abilities except for the stronger powered canines. <<<(wolves, hyenas, jackals, foxes, dogs, you get the point) The tears seemed to seal up as the last creature exited its dimension. With the different elemental creatures now all one planet, they were bound to meet sooner or later. When they did meet it was a point in which chaos, confusion, and tension filled the air. Luckily no violence broke out as the different elements groups merged together. Hybrids were created as different creatures with certain abilities bonded and mated. As the new years together bore on the creatures became more and more intelligent. They learned to speak, hunt in groups, manufactures items using their abilities. Crazier and more powerful hybrids were bred as the years continued up until present day where the creatures live in tight-nit families referred to as packs. The families could be bonded (shared bloodlines), un-bonded (No Related Bloodlines), or Multi (A mix of Bonded and Un-Bonded Creatures).
