Collect members. If you want to be an outsider and live with up to four people or less, you are not a full pack, and therefore your miniature pack does not have to have a name. Members who want to be part of a pack should join a pack with at least five people or more.
Decide ranks for your pack. Miniature packs do not have ranks. There must be a leader, and the fairest way to do this is to hold an election. Remember not to vote for yourself! If there is a tie, have a mini wrestle or rock-paper-scissors battle, then let the audience vote for who they think is the best. The rest of the pack can decide whether he or she wants to be a standard member, elder, nurse, pup/kid, or another role.
Decide what animal the members in the pack will be, and this includes mini packs, hold an election, if there is a draw, have everyone vote on the top two. Or let the leader decide. It is perfectly okay to have multiple different species of animals to be, just as long as the other members agree.
Name your pack. This is optional for mini packs. Try to use creative names instead of a more common one. Hold an election for the pack names and if there is a tie, let the leader decide.
Decide your characters' name, gender, appearance, and backstory. You don't have to, but it's more fun and makes your pack more realistic.
Make your pack unique. Create an emblem that is placed around your territory and on the items your pack uses. Make up traits that only your pack has. If your pack is in a public area, do not vandalize property. It is illegal and can give your pack a bad name.
Map out your territory. Make sure this is a place accessible to all members. Mini packs can have territory, as they may migrate often. Make sure the territory is a place where the members can access, such as part of a school or a nearby park. Please don't prevent other people who are not roleplaying from using or being an area that is claimed as territory by your pack.
Get ally packs. Once you have about 10-20 members, try to form alliances with other packs. After all, there is strength in numbers.
Get rival packs. Once you've got 20-30 members, start turning down offers for others to join your pack or let the leader decide. If you decline, you could suggest they create a rival pack.
Have battles and border raids. These can be acted out as mini wrestles or rock-paper-scissors battles. If one of the animals leading the raid backs down, the other pack will win.
Let everyone know about it! Create posters to put near your school, but not on school premises. Make sure it is in a place where people can see. Make sure they know how to contact you if they want to join. You could even designate a time where wannabe pack members can visit you at your house!
Get the leader to make about three to five rules that all pack members must obey. This allows for the clan members to bond and also allow for good or bad characters!
Roleplay life in the pack. This can include anything from inducting new members, to battles, and even crazy things like alien invasions! Just make sure the leader is okay with roleplaying some scenarios.
