Lupercalia, February 13-15, 2016

Psychic Wolves for Lupercalia is a multifandom minifest running February thirteenth through fifteenth. Come create Sutcliff fanworks with companion animals and sympathetic lust!

A white wolf, a pink heart, and the text: Psychic Wolves for Lupercalia - A Multi-Fandom Mini-Fest, February Thirteenth through Fifteenth

Briefly about the fest:

In the vein of A Companion to Wolves and similar epic fantasy, this is a fanwork challenge in which various characters are bonded to wolves. These wolves may be used in the Companion-verse manner, as warriors in the fight against trolls, or in more modern-day applications such as K-9 units of police forces, service animals for disabled characters, or any other application you can think of for psychic wolves. In the source canon, the wolves communicate their emotions with their bonded humans and the humans who are bonded to wolves in the same pack, up to and including causing them to have sex with each other. You don't have to read a specific book to write your own take on psychic wolves. Ideally, there should be wolves in it. They should be psychic. They should at least have the potential of causing sympathetic lust in the other species they're bonded to. Complete information here.


This fest is an opportunity to explore a plot device which meshes really well with wildly different settings and can be used for very different metaphorical meanings. Earlier (Psychic Wolves for Lupercalia is in its fifth year), four works in different Sutcliff fandoms were created:

Chosen by [profile] demon_rum (Eagle of the Ninth)
Pack Dynamics by [profile] demon_rum (Eagle of the Ninth)
The Wolf With No Name by [personal profile] sistermine (Eagle of the Ninth)
The Fond-Name by [personal profile] sineala (Frontier Wolf)


So, come create for Psychic Wolves for Lupercalia - A Multi-Fandom Mini-Fest, February Thirteenth through Fifteenth! And you are welcome to brainstorm and discuss your ideas in comments to this post in [community profile] sutcliff_space.
