MAY 3, 2017 UPDATE After some unexpected events, the original role-play for this page has been closed down. However, instead of opening it up to the public, I am using it for a new role-play, with the exclusion of SkyClan. For now, the SkyClan layout will not be free to use. I am also updating the layouts and adding "special page" layouts. I will open this up for discussion after I am done with the updates and new editions. Thank you. MAY 22, 2017 UPDATE The coding is not for free use. I don't care if you edit it, if I did not specifically give you permission, you may not use it and you will be asked to take it down or be reported.

Many moons ago, the forest was a wilderness, untamed by territories. Cats came into the forest, drawn in by the soft rustlings of small creatures, shadows under the water, and the sudden commotion of birds' wings in the trees. The cats lived in small groups, not yet Clans and there were no borders set down. The cats fought constantly, fearful that prey might run out and that their overlapping territories were being threatened. It was a lawless, bloody time for the forest, and many cats died. One night, when the moon was full, the cats agreed to meet at a clearing in the forest surrounded by four great oak trees. A terrible battle followed, and soon the ground was wet with spilled blood. Many cats died that night. When the survivors awoke, all around them they saw the spirits of their slain kin, no longer torn and bloodied but shining like fallen stars. The survivors huddled on the ground, and, as the spirits spoke, they saw terrible visions of the future. They knew that the fighting had to end. "Unite or die," said the spirits. Four cats--Shadow, River, Wind and Thunder--came forward claiming that they could individually unite the forest with their strengths. The spirits of the slain kin spoke again, "The forest is big enough to feed all your families and many more. You must each find other cats like you, choose a home in the forest, and set down borders." At that moment, the moon broke free of the clouds, revealing a circle of starlit spirit-cats around the edge of the clearing--StarClan. A white tom spirit-cat stepped forward. "If you do this," he meowed, "we will reward you with eight more lives, so that you may lead your Clans for many moons to come." The StarClan promised to watch over the Clans from Silverpelt, a crowded path of stars that swept across the night sky, and to visit the Clan leaders in their dreams and to guide them on their journeys. The spirit-cats proclaimed that all four Clans would meet at the full moon once a month at the four great oak trees for a night of truce. Thunder, River, Wind, and Shadow were pronounced warriors by the spirit-cats. "From now on, you will live by a warrior code. Your hearts will be filled with courage and nobility, and if you must fight, it will be not for greed, but for honor and justice." And so the age of warrior Clans began--ShadowClan, RiverClan, WindClan, and ThunderClan.

RiverClan is one of the five major Clans, and consider StarClan to be their warrior ancestors. They used to live on the reedy, pebbly plain near a river with very few trees, but now live in in a patch of land surrounded by two streams. RiverClan cats are known for their amazing skill at fishing and love for water. They also love beautiful things, and are known to collect rocks, shells, and feathers to decorate their dens. They eat mainly fish, but they can also eat water voles, shrews, and mice. They are contented, sleek, well-fed cats with well-groomed fur. They are known to be clever and graceful but are perceived outside their Clan as being stubborn and lazy. Their long fur and glossy coats are an asset while swimming. RiverClan gets by in leaf-bare, because according to other Clans, they fatten themselves on fish during greenleaf in preparation for leaf-bare. RiverClan cats dislike adding birds to their fresh-kill pile. Sometimes other Clan cats call them "fish-faces", or "fish-breath". They are quite strong swimmers and move through the water as if they are part of it. Their lightning reflexes help them scoop fish from the bank. RiverClan cats often go well-fed, even during leaf-bare, and their sleek and handsome pelts are often something Twolegs are attracted to. Many Twolegs see this, and often take these cats to live in their homes, although RiverClan keeps quiet about it, as many of those cats do not come back. The RiverClan forest territory is located in what Twoleg call Morgan Farm's Campsite and the River Chell. Landmarks in this territory include: ➤ Camp - A well-drained island surrounded by the river and reeds. The other Clans' fear of water means this camp has never been attacked. ➤ The Gorge - A deep gorge cut by the river in the terrain, border with WindClan. Apprentices are forbidden to go near it. ➤ The River - A source of food and protection to the Clan. Sometimes, it is peaceful while other times, it floods. ➤ Twoleg Bridge - A bridge built by Twolegs that allows the cats to go to Fourtrees when the river is high. ➤ Beech copse - A training area for apprentices and warriors. ➤ Sunningrocks - Rocks that absorb the sunshine and are a place of relaxation. Moons ago, it used to be an island belonging only to RiverClan, but when the river changed current, ThunderClan wanted this territory, too. The two constantly fight over it and ownership of the rocks change often.
The whole camp is surrounded by reeds. In the central area, the cats lie and share tongues in the sun. In the tangle of one of the reeds, there is the warrior's den. It is also right next to the nursery. On the roof of the den, cats have woven in sparkling rocks and shells from the river. The light dances on them, making beautiful reflections. The river comes up very close to the nursery. The walls are built very thickly to prevent the nursery from floating away in a flood. The nursery is also close to the river so the kits can practice getting wet and sometimes swimming, helping them for when they become apprentices. Across the central clearing, the elder's den, leader's den, apprentice's den, and the medicine's den dwell. They are all in a tangle of reeds covered by a hard reedy roof.

Before we jump into the specific restrictions, allow it to be clearly stated that it is within the admins' rights to change rules at any time. Any additions, changes, or removals will be discussed beforehand, but once a decision is made it's non-negotiable. Our objective in making these changes is to improve the quality of the roleplay, not to take away from it. We must also make it clear that if you have not read all of the rules and other provided information, you aren't off to a great start here. Anyone who blatantly ignores the important sections will be directed back to read them. If you respect us, we will respect you. So please respect all the work that's been put in by taking a moment to read everything. That brings another important point: respect and courtesy. No one should feel uncomfortable or attacked here. If you differ with someone on an opinion, do not attack them for it. If anything about this role-play makes you feel uncomfortable, it is advised you do not join. The admins and staff of this role-play should be cracking down on poor behavior and general laziness. If a member violates a rule for the first time, they will be issued a warning. Two warnings will equal a star. A star is not something you want to receive here, as you may only have five stars before being deleted from the role-play. You may rejoin once and will automatically start on the second star. Now, when a member gets to the second star, they cannot not "attend" the Gathering and their characters must remain in camp for two days. For the third star, their apprentices could have an additional training session added on before they become a warrior. If they do not have an apprentice but have a warrior acting as a mentor, their apprentice will be assigned a new mentor for a week and that cat will be sick or under punishment for something. If the member happens to have both, admin may decide on which approach to take. When a fourth star is issued, it will result in previous punishments from before and a week's suspension from that Clan. Now, if they have joined two Clans, the two admins can discuss if this will impact both Clans or just the one. If they show a better attitude in the other Clan, it will only be in the Clan they're not doing so well with. Finally, the fifth star will result in deletion. If a member does rejoin after being deleted once, they cannot have any special plots, positions, or even apprentices until two weeks in. If the member continues to improve beyond those two weeks, then the admins can discuss the possibility of cleaning their slate. It's important to note that staff are held at a different standard than regular members. If you are a staff member, it is vital that you read the staff rules to ensure you are following the activity rules. These activity rules are for non-staff members, to avoid confusion. Regular members without high positions will need to be on a minimum of four days a week. OOC chat and popping in to say hi don't count towards activity. This may sound a bit strict but due to the size of the role-play, we must encourage activity in our members to ensure success. The admins and staff attempt to provide the best experience possible and in the absence of members, the very heart of any role-play, that experience can't be provided. Admins and staff will keep a close eye on activity. Every two weeks, there will be a check for inactive members. Just like any rule, there will be consequences for breaking this one. We will not overlook it when it happens. Background, relations to other members, and other factors are no reason for anyone to become inactive. However, noted hiatuses are acceptable. If a member knows they will be absent for a certain amount of time, then they can alert a staff member about their expected absence and will not face any negative consequences for it. We kindly ask that you do alert us if you know you're going to be gone. If you can no longer be a member, let us know instead of going inactive and leaving us wondering. Of course, we can understand being in a rush one day, but if you can post on another role-play, you should at least be able to make a post here to move things along. When you join, please keep in mind Clan characteristics, rules, and any information that would impact your character. Do not use adjectives such as "handsome" or "beautiful" when describing your character. It's a form of god-modding because it's biased. Not everyone will find them attractive. Do not apply for deputy; leaders will decide their deputy. Please use our form properly, coding and all. LBGTQ+ characters are welcomed here. Anyone who is against this or tries to argue against this can kindly leave. As for queens and kits, there must be a father for the kits. You may ask one of the members if they would like to have a cat father the kits. The two cats do not necessarily have to be mates, either. Please do not join with orphaned kits. We would much rather have room for kits who are born in the Clan than an overload of orphans. While we will also allow permanent queens, we ask that you develop them. Regarding relationships, none of the admins have a problem with two different people having their characters join as mates, or a character having a crush on another. As for role-playing your own character's mate, the two characters have to be retired. We also encourage joining and having a character related to others only if the other member allows it. In the Clans, there will be available spots, so please feel free. We will restrict the amount of outsiders, half-Clan cats, and outsiders that join the Clans. Please keep in mind any cat who is not a full Clan cat or that is mixed blood can and will be discriminated against. When it comes to feline genetics, be as accurate as you can. The admins either have a chart, generator, or basic idea of how genetics work, so don't try to pull the wool over our eyes. Any outsiders will be limited in number and restricted to an area. The admins will decide on the number and the outsider will need to remain in a Clan area. They cannot and will not remain undiscovered in the territory for a long time. They must have a purpose. Now, an important note to make would be that characters can't be made for the simple purpose of finding a mate. They need to have something besides that to motivate them; something that will develop their character. They should not be made for the simple purpose of moving a plot along either. For every warrior that is made, one apprentice may be made. Keep in mind, the maximum amount of apprentices is ten per Clan. While we do ask gender ratios be kept somewhat even, it will be up to the admins to moderate this for their Clans because every Clan may vary. We will be limiting prefixes to one per Clans. This section will be the longest and hold many rules and regulations. Before we jump into another batch of rules, let's go over the basics that everyone needs to know. Power-playing is basically taking a character you do not own and controlling them to do certain deeds and actions, esp. to benefit your character(s). While we have very few exceptions to this rule, it is not allowed and may result in a negative consequence. We kindly ask you refrain from doing this and if you feel you are, simply asking should not hurt. Another issue that can have a few exceptions is spotlighting. The attention of the members and characters should vary depending on the plot point, location, time, and the importance of what is going on at the time. Be aware of when you should have the spotlight on your character and when you should not. The third common role-playing issue is god-modding. While the Warriors series itself has been known to be unrealistic at times and even break their own rules, any cases of god-modding will not be allowed here. There have been measures taken to ensure god-modding does not happen and during moments when god-modding can easily occur, a watchful eye will be present. Finally, the fourth and final big issue: meta-gaming. Meta-gaming typically refers to a character knowing something they should not in canon. An example would be two characters entering a forbidden romance and then a third character randomly knowing about that relationship. If it is not role-played or discussed between everyone involved, they can't possibly know. There is a lot of controversy about literacy and role-playing. There are typically four categories a role-play is put in. However, we have decided not to label it. We simply ask for proper spelling and grammar, as well as at least five sentences per post. Given that the typical paragraph for children is five sentences, we are not asking much. You are invited to write more, but be cautious of "fluff." Filler can make posts difficult to read. Realism is important here. While the admins and staff will make sure everyone is following basic logic, we feel it should be touched upon that a patrol of three cats cannot take on a grown badger without serious injury in two seconds. In the Warriors universe, there are certain things that can and can not happen, so please abide by those rules and our rules. General role-play rules play along with realism. Don't make your characters the constant center of attention. There will be moments when your character’s plot or spot in the limelight will take front and center. God-modding and meta-gaming are a no go for us, so do not even think about it. Please keep in mind that cats do die, especially in the wild. In fact the domestic cat's lifespan is halved when they are feral. To combat the chance of someone taking the liberty to have all of their cats die at one time or live through something they shouldn't have, the admins will have what is called "chance charts." Depending on the situation, these can have an impact on the whole Clan or only a few characters. The charts will be on the discussion page, and will be used when the situation calls. If you are not comfortable with the chance of your character dying, then please refrain from joining. ➤ ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 & Bear Rainleaf completely did the coding, graphics, and wrote the chance generators. She also typed up the rules, although all the admins went over them and discussed them and Bear kindly edited them. The map of the forest was edited by Rainleaf.
➤ Erin Hunter, Wayne McLoughlin, and Owen Richardson The history came from the official Warriors site, and therefore is written by Erin Hunter. The quotes in the welcome section come from various guides also written by Erin Hunter. The artwork used in the main banner, side banners, and the map were illustrated by Wayne McLoughlin or Owen Richardson. The history came from the official Warriors website.
➤ Warriors Wiki The characteristics and territory are displayed on the Clan's page on the Warriors Wiki. It is a collection of information written by Erin Hunter. The herbs, battle moves, warrior code, illnesses and treatments, as well as the ceremonies on the special pages are located on the wiki. This information also comes Erin Hunter as well.

Members of the Clan are posted here. Everything is pretty self-explanatory, except the "member rank." This will detail if you are a new member, member, trusted member, moderator, or admin. It has nothing to do with ranks inside the role-play. New members are typically forumers who have recently joined. Members have been part of the role-play for over two weeks. Trusted members are members who may be promoted to moderator status or can be trusted by the admin to help moderators when the admin is on leave or not on. Moderator and admins are pretty self-explanatory. NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link "]NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link The news section can be a bit tricky at first glance. The "Role-play News" is a section for updates and announcements that are outside of the actual role-play. An example would be a new member joining or closing a rank due to overfill. The "Clan News" section summarizes the events of that day, such as fox attacks, new kits, or new warriors. Be sure to check the news often, as the admin of this Clan may have already updated it. Admins, it is mandatory that the news be update once every week on the Gathering dates. You may summarize the entire week, however it is recommended to update every day to every other day depending on the movement of the role-play. Role-play News Date An summary of what happened. Date An summary of what happened. Clan News Date An summary of what happened. Date An summary of what happened. Plots & Omens Main Role-play Plot An summary of what happened.

The asterisk will be listed behind a character's name to show that they are deceased. A semi-colon is used to differentiate litters from the same parents. The plus sign is in between the parents and the equal sign shows their offspring. Siglings with unknown parents will be listed as such. She-cats will be italicized. For forbidden relationships, the name of the cat from another Clan will be in their Clan's color. To make this easier for the admin and to create a uniform look, we have colors assigned already. ShadowClan will be in FFC5C5. SkyClan will be in FF9F6E. ThunderClan will be in BDD6BD. WindClan will be in C5C0D0. Blahflower* + Blahblaze* = Blankclaw, Blehpelt; Mehpaw, Merpaw Derpheart and Examplefall are sibings. Blankclaw and Examplefall are mates. Derpheart and Blehpelt are no longer mates. Blehpelt mentors Mehpaw Derpheart mentors Merpaw Males: ??/?? Females: ??/?? Non-binary: ??/?? Warriors: ??/?? Apprentices: ??/10 Queens: ??/5 Kits: ??/?? Elders: ??/??

"Few are welcome here, in our world of secrets and darkness. We are a Clan of cunning and cleverness, a Clan well suited to the shadows of the cold north wind. No other Clan can walk the paths of night like we do. Other Clans may be faster or stronger, but we are the most dangerous warriors: fierce, proud, and independent. We are ruthlessly willing to do what it takes to protect our great Clan. There won't be any softhearted alliances here! ShadowClan will always be the dark heart of the forest." — Blackstar about ShadowClan in Secrets of the Clans, page 55

Many moons ago, the forest was a wilderness, untamed by territories. Cats came into the forest, drawn in by the soft rustlings of small creatures, shadows under the water, and the sudden commotion of birds' wings in the trees. The cats lived in small groups, not yet Clans and there were no borders set down. The cats fought constantly, fearful that prey might run out and that their overlapping territories were being threatened. It was a lawless, bloody time for the forest, and many cats died. One night, when the moon was full, the cats agreed to meet at a clearing in the forest surrounded by four great oak trees. A terrible battle followed, and soon the ground was wet with spilled blood. Many cats died that night. When the survivors awoke, all around them they saw the spirits of their slain kin, no longer torn and bloodied but shining like fallen stars. The survivors huddled on the ground, and, as the spirits spoke, they saw terrible visions of the future. They knew that the fighting had to end. "Unite or die," said the spirits. Four cats--Shadow, River, Wind and Thunder--came forward claiming that they could individually unite the forest with their strengths. The spirits of the slain kin spoke again, "The forest is big enough to feed all your families and many more. You must each find other cats like you, choose a home in the forest, and set down borders." At that moment, the moon broke free of the clouds, revealing a circle of starlit spirit-cats around the edge of the clearing--StarClan. A white tom spirit-cat stepped forward. "If you do this," he meowed, "we will reward you with eight more lives, so that you may lead your Clans for many moons to come." The StarClan promised to watch over the Clans from Silverpelt, a crowded path of stars that swept across the night sky, and to visit the Clan leaders in their dreams and to guide them on their journeys. The spirit-cats proclaimed that all four Clans would meet at the full moon once a month at the four great oak trees for a night of truce. Thunder, River, Wind, and Shadow were pronounced warriors by the spirit-cats. "From now on, you will live by a warrior code. Your hearts will be filled with courage and nobility, and if you must fight, it will be not for greed, but for honor and justice." And so the age of warrior Clans began--ShadowClan, RiverClan, WindClan, and ThunderClan.

They have always seemed to be the "darker" Clan, with fierce, more disagreeable warriors. This dark reputation has been earned over the years by an unfortunate run of corrupted leaders, twisted minds, and bitter plots. They are proud, loyal, defensive, and slightly arrogant; often seem to be misunderstood and portrayed by the other Clans as battle-hungry, aggressive, ambitious, and greedy for more territory. It was often said when the Clans were in the forest, that the cold north wind of the mountains chilled the ShadowClan warriors' hearts. However, as Rock states in Cats of the Clans, ShadowClan have the smallest amount of territory and prey, which may justify their readiness to add anything to the fresh-kill pile. Even though their fierce warriors and hostile leaders earned ShadowClan its reputation, ShadowClan was not always as unfair and cruel as they seem now. Their main prey are reptiles and amphibians, such as lizards and frogs. A secret food source is the carrionplace, though they are careful not to eat crow-food. ShadowClan cats hunt best at night, and are better than others at sneaking through undergrowth. The ShadowClan forest territory is located in an area that Twolegs have no specific name for. The territory also includes Twoleg places such as Windover Road, and the North Allerton Amenity Tip, and the North Allerton Road. Landmarks in this territory include: ➤ Camp - A dark, well-concealed hollow hidden deep in shadows. It is surrounded by prickly and fierce brambles. ➤ Carrionplace - An evil place where rats and diseases lurk. ➤ Thunderpath tunnel - ShadowClan cats move freely across the most feared part of the Thunderpath. This has enhanced their reputation for mysterious strength and invincibility. ➤ Burnt Sycamore - An ancient tree struck by lightning moons ago. Apprentices are trained here to hunt at night and stalk through undergrowth.
The forest is quite different on ShadowClan's side of the Thunderpath. Instead of thick trees, there're more pine needles. The camp is protected by brambles, and the entrance is through a tiny path. There is hardly any grass, but the ground is muddy and cool. The leader's den is beneath the roots of a big oak tree. The warriors' den is under a bramble bush. The den looks prickly on the outside, but on the inside, it's lined with pine needles and moss. There is a smooth boulder at the edge of the clearing, which serves as a higher place for the leader to address the camp. Propped up next to this large rock is another rock, and it creates a sheltered cave underneath. It is the medicine cat's den. Sick cats can rest in the ferns surrounding the boulder. There is another hollow shielded by a thorn bush. This is the nursery, and the thorn bush is protection.

Before we jump into the specific restrictions, allow it to be clearly stated that it is within the admins' rights to change rules at any time. Any additions, changes, or removals will be discussed beforehand, but once a decision is made it's non-negotiable. Our objective in making these changes is to improve the quality of the roleplay, not to take away from it. We must also make it clear that if you have not read all of the rules and other provided information, you aren't off to a great start here. Anyone who blatantly ignores the important sections will be directed back to read them. If you respect us, we will respect you. So please respect all the work that's been put in by taking a moment to read everything. That brings another important point: respect and courtesy. No one should feel uncomfortable or attacked here. If you differ with someone on an opinion, do not attack them for it. If anything about this role-play makes you feel uncomfortable, it is advised you do not join. The admins and staff of this role-play should be cracking down on poor behavior and general laziness. If a member violates a rule for the first time, they will be issued a warning. Two warnings will equal a star. A star is not something you want to receive here, as you may only have five stars before being deleted from the role-play. You may rejoin once and will automatically start on the second star. Now, when a member gets to the second star, they cannot not "attend" the Gathering and their characters must remain in camp for two days. For the third star, their apprentices could have an additional training session added on before they become a warrior. If they do not have an apprentice but have a warrior acting as a mentor, their apprentice will be assigned a new mentor for a week and that cat will be sick or under punishment for something. If the member happens to have both, admin may decide on which approach to take. When a fourth star is issued, it will result in previous punishments from before and a week's suspension from that Clan. Now, if they have joined two Clans, the two admins can discuss if this will impact both Clans or just the one. If they show a better attitude in the other Clan, it will only be in the Clan they're not doing so well with. Finally, the fifth star will result in deletion. If a member does rejoin after being deleted once, they cannot have any special plots, positions, or even apprentices until two weeks in. If the member continues to improve beyond those two weeks, then the admins can discuss the possibility of cleaning their slate. It's important to note that staff are held at a different standard than regular members. If you are a staff member, it is vital that you read the staff rules to ensure you are following the activity rules. These activity rules are for non-staff members, to avoid confusion. Regular members without high positions will need to be on a minimum of four days a week. OOC chat and popping in to say hi don't count towards activity. This may sound a bit strict but due to the size of the role-play, we must encourage activity in our members to ensure success. The admins and staff attempt to provide the best experience possible and in the absence of members, the very heart of any role-play, that experience can't be provided. Admins and staff will keep a close eye on activity. Every two weeks, there will be a check for inactive members. Just like any rule, there will be consequences for breaking this one. We will not overlook it when it happens. Background, relations to other members, and other factors are no reason for anyone to become inactive. However, noted hiatuses are acceptable. If a member knows they will be absent for a certain amount of time, then they can alert a staff member about their expected absence and will not face any negative consequences for it. We kindly ask that you do alert us if you know you're going to be gone. If you can no longer be a member, let us know instead of going inactive and leaving us wondering. Of course, we can understand being in a rush one day, but if you can post on another role-play, you should at least be able to make a post here to move things along. When you join, please keep in mind Clan characteristics, rules, and any information that would impact your character. Do not use adjectives such as "handsome" or "beautiful" when describing your character. It's a form of god-modding because it's biased. Not everyone will find them attractive. Do not apply for deputy; leaders will decide their deputy. Please use our form properly, coding and all. LBGTQ+ characters are welcomed here. Anyone who is against this or tries to argue against this can kindly leave. As for queens and kits, there must be a father for the kits. You may ask one of the members if they would like to have a cat father the kits. The two cats do not necessarily have to be mates, either. Please do not join with orphaned kits. We would much rather have room for kits who are born in the Clan than an overload of orphans. While we will also allow permanent queens, we ask that you develop them. Regarding relationships, none of the admins have a problem with two different people having their characters join as mates, or a character having a crush on another. As for role-playing your own character's mate, the two characters have to be retired. We also encourage joining and having a character related to others only if the other member allows it. In the Clans, there will be available spots, so please feel free. We will restrict the amount of outsiders, half-Clan cats, and outsiders that join the Clans. Please keep in mind any cat who is not a full Clan cat or that is mixed blood can and will be discriminated against. When it comes to feline genetics, be as accurate as you can. The admins either have a chart, generator, or basic idea of how genetics work, so don't try to pull the wool over our eyes. Any outsiders will be limited in number and restricted to an area. The admins will decide on the number and the outsider will need to remain in a Clan area. They cannot and will not remain undiscovered in the territory for a long time. They must have a purpose. Now, an important note to make would be that characters can't be made for the simple purpose of finding a mate. They need to have something besides that to motivate them; something that will develop their character. They should not be made for the simple purpose of moving a plot along either. For every warrior that is made, one apprentice may be made. Keep in mind, the maximum amount of apprentices is ten per Clan. While we do ask gender ratios be kept somewhat even, it will be up to the admins to moderate this for their Clans because every Clan may vary. We will be limiting prefixes to one per Clans. This section will be the longest and hold many rules and regulations. Before we jump into another batch of rules, let's go over the basics that everyone needs to know. Power-playing is basically taking a character you do not own and controlling them to do certain deeds and actions, esp. to benefit your character(s). While we have very few exceptions to this rule, it is not allowed and may result in a negative consequence. We kindly ask you refrain from doing this and if you feel you are, simply asking should not hurt. Another issue that can have a few exceptions is spotlighting. The attention of the members and characters should vary depending on the plot point, location, time, and the importance of what is going on at the time. Be aware of when you should have the spotlight on your character and when you should not. The third common role-playing issue is god-modding. While the Warriors series itself has been known to be unrealistic at times and even break their own rules, any cases of god-modding will not be allowed here. There have been measures taken to ensure god-modding does not happen and during moments when god-modding can easily occur, a watchful eye will be present. Finally, the fourth and final big issue: meta-gaming. Meta-gaming typically refers to a character knowing something they should not in canon. An example would be two characters entering a forbidden romance and then a third character randomly knowing about that relationship. If it is not role-played or discussed between everyone involved, they can't possibly know. There is a lot of controversy about literacy and role-playing. There are typically four categories a role-play is put in. However, we have decided not to label it. We simply ask for proper spelling and grammar, as well as at least five sentences per post. Given that the typical paragraph for children is five sentences, we are not asking much. You are invited to write more, but be cautious of "fluff." Filler can make posts difficult to read. Realism is important here. While the admins and staff will make sure everyone is following basic logic, we feel it should be touched upon that a patrol of three cats cannot take on a grown badger without serious injury in two seconds. In the Warriors universe, there are certain things that can and can not happen, so please abide by those rules and our rules. General role-play rules play along with realism. Don't make your characters the constant center of attention. There will be moments when your character’s plot or spot in the limelight will take front and center. God-modding and meta-gaming are a no go for us, so do not even think about it. Please keep in mind that cats do die, especially in the wild. In fact the domestic cat's lifespan is halved when they are feral. To combat the chance of someone taking the liberty to have all of their cats die at one time or live through something they shouldn't have, the admins will have what is called "chance charts." Depending on the situation, these can have an impact on the whole Clan or only a few characters. The charts will be on the discussion page, and will be used when the situation calls. If you are not comfortable with the chance of your character dying, then please refrain from joining. ➤ ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 & Bear Rainleaf completely did the coding, graphics, and wrote the chance generators. She also typed up the rules, although all the admins went over them and discussed them and Bear kindly edited them. The map of the forest was edited by Rainleaf.
➤ Erin Hunter, Wayne McLoughlin, and Owen Richardson The history came from the official Warriors site, and therefore is written by Erin Hunter. The quotes in the welcome section come from various guides also written by Erin Hunter. The artwork used in the main banner, side banners, and the map were illustrated by Wayne McLoughlin or Owen Richardson. The history came from the official Warriors website.
➤ Warriors Wiki The characteristics and territory are displayed on the Clan's page on the Warriors Wiki. It is a collection of information written by Erin Hunter. The herbs, battle moves, warrior code, illnesses and treatments, as well as the ceremonies on the special pages are located on the wiki. This information also comes Erin Hunter as well.

Members of the Clan are posted here. Everything is pretty self-explanatory, except the "member rank." This will detail if you are a new member, member, trusted member, moderator, or admin. It has nothing to do with ranks inside the role-play. New members are typically forumers who have recently joined. Members have been part of the role-play for over two weeks. Trusted members are members who may be promoted to moderator status or can be trusted by the admin to help moderators when the admin is on leave or not on. Moderator and admins are pretty self-explanatory. NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link NAME | ACTIVITY | MEMBER RANK ❝ Characters ❞ Warnings Profile Link The news section can be a bit tricky at first glance. The "Role-play News" is a section for updates and announcements that are outside of the actual role-play. An example would be a new member joining or closing a rank due to overfill. The "Clan News" section summarizes the events of that day, such as fox attacks, new kits, or new warriors. Be sure to check the news often, as the admin of this Clan may have already updated it. Admins, it is mandatory that the news be update once every week on the Gathering dates. You may summarize the entire week, however it is recommended to update every day to every other day depending on the movement of the role-play. Role-play News Date An summary of what happened. Date An summary of what happened. Clan News Date An summary of what happened. Date An summary of what happened. Plots & Omens Main Role-play Plot An summary of what happened. Main Clan Plot An summary of what happened. Patrols Sunday Dawn Border Patrol: Cats Dawn Hunting Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Border Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Hunting Patrol: Cats Dusk Border Patrol: Cats Dusk Hunting Patrol: Cats Monday Dawn Border Patrol: Cats Dawn Hunting Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Border Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Hunting Patrol: Cats Dusk Border Patrol: Cats Dusk Hunting Patrol: Cats Tuesday Dawn Border Patrol: Cats Dawn Hunting Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Border Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Hunting Patrol: Cats Dusk Border Patrol: Cats Dusk Hunting Patrol: Cats Wednesday Dawn Border Patrol: Cats Dawn Hunting Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Border Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Hunting Patrol: Cats Dusk Border Patrol: Cats Dusk Hunting Patrol: Cats Thursday Dawn Border Patrol: Cats Dawn Hunting Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Border Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Hunting Patrol: Cats Dusk Border Patrol: Cats Dusk Hunting Patrol: Cats Friday Dawn Border Patrol: Cats Dawn Hunting Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Border Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Hunting Patrol: Cats Dusk Border Patrol: Cats Dusk Hunting Patrol: Cats Saturday Dawn Border Patrol: Cats Dawn Hunting Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Border Patrol: Cats Sunhigh Hunting Patrol: Cats Dusk Border Patrol: Cats Dusk Hunting Patrol: Cats The relations will be simple and will not really use any symbols but an asterisk, a plus sign, equal sign, and a semi-colon. The asterisk will be listed behind a character's name to show that they are deceased. A semi-colon is used to differentiate litters from the same parents. The plus sign is in between the parents and the equal sign shows their offspring. Siglings with unknown parents will be listed as such. She-cats will be italicized. For forbidden relationships, the name of the cat from another Clan will be in their Clan's color. To make this easier for the admin and to create a uniform look, we have colors assigned already. RiverClan will be in AFD4DE. SkyClan will be in FF9F6E. ThunderClan will be in BDD6BD. WindClan will be in C5C0D0. Blahflower* + Blahblaze* = Blankclaw, Blehpelt; Mehpaw, Merpaw Derpheart and Examplefall are sibings. Blankclaw and Examplefall are mates. Derpheart and Blehpelt are no longer mates. Blehpelt mentors Mehpaw Derpheart mentors Merpaw Males: ??/?? Females: ??/?? Non-binary: ??/?? Warriors: ??/?? Apprentices: ??/10 Queens: ??/5 Kits: ??/?? Elders: ??/??

Many moons ago, the forest was a wilderness, untamed by territories. Cats came into the forest, drawn in by the soft rustlings of small creatures, shadows under the water, and the sudden commotion of birds' wings in the trees. The cats lived in small groups, not yet Clans and there were no borders set down. The cats fought constantly, fearful that prey might run out and that their overlapping territories were being threatened. It was a lawless, bloody time for the forest, and many cats died. One night, when the moon was full, the cats agreed to meet at a clearing in the forest surrounded by four great oak trees. A terrible battle followed, and soon the ground was wet with spilled blood. Many cats died that night. When the survivors awoke, all around them they saw the spirits of their slain kin, no longer torn and bloodied but shining like fallen stars. The survivors huddled on the ground, and, as the spirits spoke, they saw terrible visions of the future. They knew that the fighting had to end. "Unite or die," said the spirits. Four cats--Shadow, River, Wind and Thunder--came forward claiming that they could individually unite the forest with their strengths. The spirits of the slain kin spoke again, "The forest is big enough to feed all your families and many more. You must each find other cats like you, choose a home in the forest, and set down borders." At that moment, the moon broke free of the clouds, revealing a circle of starlit spirit-cats around the edge of the clearing--StarClan. A white tom spirit-cat stepped forward. "If you do this," he meowed, "we will reward you with eight more lives, so that you may lead your Clans for many moons to come." The StarClan promised to watch over the Clans from Silverpelt, a crowded path of stars that swept across the night sky, and to visit the Clan leaders in their dreams and to guide them on their journeys. The spirit-cats proclaimed that all four Clans would meet at the full moon once a month at the four great oak trees for a night of truce. Thunder, River, Wind, and Shadow were pronounced warriors by the spirit-cats. "From now on, you will live by a warrior code. Your hearts will be filled with courage and nobility, and if you must fight, it will be not for greed, but for honor and justice." And so the age of warrior Clans began--ShadowClan, RiverClan, WindClan, and ThunderClan.
There was not always peace between the Clans, but that was to be expected--cats are born with claws and teeth for a reason. Still, as long as they lived by the warrior code, their fallen ancestors would watch over them and guide them through their lives. Though there was one turbelent time in the life of the Clans. Twolegs ravaged the land of a forgotten Clan called SkyClan. After pleading for shelter, the leaders of River, Shadow, Thunder, and Wind banished them. Their faith shattered, the abandoned traveled to a gorge. There, they started a new life and hoped to forget the past. The gorge was not kind to them, as they had been chased from their and dispersed once by rats. When they rebuilt generations later, their kinds hearts were crushed as they had once again been chased out. Now, after two seasons, the small and fragile Clan has been brought hope. At the lake, where the four Clans who had once turned away SkyClan faced their own destruction of their land. When they had fought until the lake ran red, StarClan emerged and gave the Clans a quest to bring back peace. They would right their wrongs by helping the very Clan they had cast to the unknown. The wise cats of StarClan hoped their task could unite them and make them all see that no Clan could survive alone. Perhaps it would end the wars that had taken so many lives and risked running the Clans to extinction. The Clans forced themselves into a tense truce and awaited the day StarClan would once again speak. When SkyClan had been brought to the lake and given land, the Clans rejoiced. After giving a few of their own, SkyClan's numbers swelled and they were able to function without the assistance of the others. The five were reunited once again, yet there are troubles still ahead..

SkyClan was the fifth Clan, but was forced to leave the forest because Twolegs had invaded and taken over their territory, turning it into the Twolegplace cats see now. Their current leader at that time, Cloudstar, appealed to the other Clan leaders at a Gathering and asked for them each to give up some of their territory for SkyClan. Each Clan gave reasons to refuse to let SkyClan stay, and in the end, the Clan was driven out. Later, SkyClan was brought back by Firestar, a journey in which the ThunderClan leader, Firestar, and his mate, Sandstorm, traveled to the gorge to bring back the Clan. Unfortunately, they were once chased out again by rogues. The Clans at the lake received a quest from StarClan and eventually discovered the travelling Clan. They were brought back to the lake and finally reunited with the other Clans. SkyClan is a Clan of cats with strongly built hind legs which allow them to jump great heights or distances. They have rough, hard gray pads which help them to jump and walk long distances on hard, rough surfaces without breaking skin, which makes them infected. This feature allows them to climb and hunt in the trees. They are very powerful cats, who are a bit like ThunderClan, eating mainly squirrels, mice, and many kinds of birds. The Lake territory for SkyClan is located in Sadler and Hare Hill Woods. They reside in pieces of territory formerly owned by ThunderClan and ShadowClan as the two Clans gave up part of their territory for SkyClan to live beside the lake. Landmarks include: ➤ Greenleaf Twolegplace - Another place Twolegs inhabit during greenleaf. The Twolegs put up small dens and light terrifying fires. However, they also leave behind food much like the food found at the old Carrionplace. This was formerly a ShadowClan landmark. ➤ Halfbridge - A peculiar bridge that ends halfway in the water. Twoleg boats are anchored to it. RiverClan has a similar one in their territory. Despite this, ShadowClan tries to take it back. ➤ Twoleg Path - During greenleaf, Twolegs tramp along these paths all season. ➤ Camp - SkyClan makes their camp in a large hollow near the clearing. ➤ The Clearing - A training hollow that also houses an abundance of herbs.
The camp is slightly open, allowing the cats to see if a Clan is intruding. However, ferns, bracken, and thorns provide some cover and protection. The dens are varies hollowed logs, ranging in size and species of wood. They have a rock near the leader's den which they've named Sky Rock. The warriors and apprentices den are near the entrance. The leaders den resides next to the warriors den and faces the medicine cat den. The nursery and elders den are in the back with the most cover, offering shelter from the weather and making the elders, queens, and kits comfortable.
