The '''Wolf Rite''' is one of the unique traditions maintained by [[Clan Wolf]]'s [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Wolf-in-Exile)|Alpha Galaxy]]. Taking place every year, around five Alpha Galaxy candidates are chosen and transported to [[Strana Mechty]] during the middle of winter. These candidates, wearing nothing but underwear and armed only with a knife, are dropped off in the middle of a snow-covered forest. Together they are tasked with stealing a fresh kill from a pack of wolves and transporting it approximately 100 km back to their base, where the rest of the assembled Alpha Galaxy watches by remote broadcast. Those who succeed are allowed to wear a strip of Strana Mechty wolf fur on their uniform, are to be addressed as KinWolf on formal occasions, and their genetic material is given higher priority in the creation of future ''[[sibko]]s''. Those who die during the Rite are honored by having their names painted below the Clan ensigns on the [[WarShip]] ''[[Dire Wolf (Individual Sovetskii Soyuz-class WarShip)|Dire Wolf]]''.<ref name=WCS74>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 74, "Notes"</ref>
