The members of the pack have become your subordinates, and will follow your commands. Note, commands to sacrifice their life, or commands that will be disadvantageous to the pack can be ignored. Stat gain will be reduced by 50% to help grow the pack. The pack members will each receive 3/4 of the stats lost this way. The packs level will be reset and synced to yours.
The four large wolves begin to shimmer, their bodies shrinking down to Cyans size, halfway between a puppy and an adolescent wolf. As he opened his menu he noticed a new option. It was called pack.

Looking over the name plates he realized that each of the wolves had their own strengths, and that sacrificing half of his growth towards them would actually be far more beneficial than not. They would not grow as fast as he did, but as a team they would be far more powerful than he was.
He eyed his pack, and the sand gators who were slowly returning to their deceased comrade at the edge of the stone slab. He ordered them to stay on the slab, and he jumped onto the sand, running towards the sand gators. The gators noticed his movements, they were especially sensitive to the vibrations in the sand, and began to swim towards him. A wolf grin appeared on his place as he slowly lured them to the slab, occasionally letting them get close enough to snap at him.
He avoiding one of the gators, as it circled around him in the sand, rolling to the left as its giant jaws emerged from where he had been standing. The ground underneath him quakes as another set of massive jaws opened under his location. Panic filled his mind as the jaws were closing with him inside, but he managed to get some footing and jump as the jaws closed. Besides having lost some fur he was fine, which served to enrage the gator. Not wasting any more time Cyan jumped onto the slab, the three massive gators diving towards him as he landed. Mentally he sent commands to Daisy and Bloopers to distract two of the beasts, but not to get bit. He took on the third, pulling it away from the other two as he had Chica and Pugsly attack its neck.
The gator grew enraged at the two pups constantly scratching and biting at it, but before it could attack them Cyan was dash in, providing an opportunity for the beast to attack, only to narrowly miss. Soon blood began to flow from the wound, and the gator tried to escape. It died before it could even reach the end of the slab, its neck a mangled mess from the three wolves.
The three wolves were tired from their fight, but it was not nearly over. They eyed the closest gator, the one Bloopers was kiting and dashed up it's back. The three attacked in unison, the gator falling even faster under the combined force of the three of them. The last gator only lasted a couple minutes before it fell. Three giant gators, more than enough for the pack to feed on.
The members of his pack had each received 3 stat points, 1 point into intelligence, and the other two to their strongest attributes. The sudden growth caused all of them to become ravenous, quickly tearing into the flesh of the gators, though they only began after Cyan had given the go ahead. The wolves split themselves between two of the gators, leaving the third for only Cyan to devour.
When they had there fill they laid on the slab, in a circle around Cyan as they basked in the warm light of the sun. He had repeatedly tried to communicate with them, but they seemed unable to speak. They could communicate with images, smells, and sounds, but there was no words. Their language was foreign, but he would take the time to learn it. It was the only option he had.
A while later bloopers brought over a small green ball that he had retrieved from one of the corpses. A notification popped up as it was placed before him.
He clicked yes without hesitation and felt his body getting more tough. He did not grow, nor did his body change in any way, yet he felt like was healthier, that he could take a hit better, that he would heal faster from his wounds. He nodded to Bloopers, requesting that he grab the rest as he headed towards the grave of his previously killed prey.
He spent over an hour digging before he finally found the corpse of the Gator. Its body was tore up, its brethren had obviously been feasting on it, but its core was still there, which he promptly absorbed. When he returned to the slab the other two cores were available, bringing his gain in constitution to 4, and for his pack 3. They had all grew much stronger through this endeavor.

He had a toothy grin as he looked at those numbers, they were far higher than they had been this morning.
