HISTORY
THE BEGINNING
Many years ago, a litter of kittens was born to a single mother within the dripping forest. There were two: Tempest and Maelstrom, brothers. Princes of the forest, it was their home and their domain. Groomed with impeccable survival skills, both brothers ruled the forest together. Cats came and went into their territory, under their domain, and the brothers protected and cared for them when given tribute. However, they were competitive, opposing hot-heads despite the rain of their home. Each wanted to rule the land for themselves. Fighting and fighting, it was not until a bear appeared upon the outskirts of their expansive territory that they came together again. Tempest was killed in battle protecting his brother, and Maelstrom was incredibly injured. Taking a group of the felines who had been passing through the territory, Maelstrom moved them to the other side of the massive, untouched forest, to create a clan of their own.
TEMPESTCLAN
It was not easy getting a clan on it's feet. Maelstrom was almost disabled from his injuries, and he had to rely on his new clanmates. However, his guidance, and his solemn sobering from the reality of his brother's death, made him an impeccable and great leader for the clan he named after his brother, Tempestclan. It matched the untouched forest and its frequent rains. It became believed legend that if it rained once, Tempest was looking down upon the clan in happiness. However, if the rain did not stop for days on end, Tempest was angry with the clan. The weather guided them, and Maelstrom pulled the clan together enough to solidify them as a group. However, one day, the old Maelstrom simply disappeared. All he left behind were simple words to his clanmates, that he was being pulled back home, to his origins, where he and brother Tempest had originated from. When he left, one could not find tracks to follow. However, the new leader of the time, Rainstar, seemed to know something about where old Maelstrom had gone. It is the leader's privilege only to know where Maelstrom went, it would seem.
NOW
Years have passed since the creation of Tempestclan. It has seen generations of cats, generations of rains. Times are changing. The territory is losing prey, losing energy, and the cats are becoming thinner and angrier against their bad luck. The rains have not stopped for days.

PLOT
THE BASIC
The current leader is old and senile, fading quickly. While deputy ___ is technically in line for the throne of leadership, their ambitious and often ruthless ways of handling problems and interacting with clanmates have left them in poor support. Another candidate has risen, ___, within the clan. For such, the clan seems to have split, with some aligning themselves with the current deputy, while others call for the new candidate, and even those who are trapped in the middle and unable and unwilling to pick a side. To make matters worse, the environment has turned into torrents. Over the moons, Tempestclan has been losing prey, losing a good weather pattern, and suffering frigid winters and scorching summers. The rains have not stopped for days, and such has never happened before- old legend tells it is Tempest who is angry with them. As rains bring flood, flood brings bugs and rotten food, washed dens and dangerous territory, the clan while divided politically must try to work together under the circumstances. But, the leader suddenly calls to their deathbed a group of cats, chosen by the leader themselves. To them, the leader whispers of a secret known only to the leaders of Tempestclan. There is a settlement, across the forest and rocky mountain, that holds the key to the revival of Tempestclan. It is where the original creator, Maelstrom, was born and raised in, and also where his death lies. There is the direct descendent of Maelstrom. The leader tasks this group of cats to find and bring back the descendent of Maelstrom to lead the clan officially in this time of turmoil, hopefully bringing good luck back to the clan. Not all is perfect, for on this quest, the child of deputy ___ has been chosen to attend. Whether the cats of the group trust or distrust this cat is up to the role-player’s discretion. As they travel, they must pass the floods, survive on little prey, and escape the clutches of other hungry animals. Of this, a group of felines seems to be on their tail once they breach past Tempestclan territory. On multiple occasions, these cats attack the group. While they never outright kill anyone, cats in the group can be injured based on role-player’s discretion and activity levels.
CHARACTERS
Because of the intricacy of the plot, I do not want it to be that only I get major plot points of the story here. There should be many places for roleplayers to fit in, and for simple characters that were not audition able characters to have a good handle on plot. This is all up to role-player's decisions! Below are a list of characters that can be auditioned for and their specifics:
Leader - 5AM Old and senile female who is quickly dying and sends the group of cats off to find the descendent of the clans
Deputy - OPEN This is an incredibly, incredibly important role to have. Only audition for this character if you are sure you can be active and cooperate with the plot basics. Can be any name, any gender, any age (preferably a middle-aged cat) Note: MUST HAVE TRAITS THAT ARE OR SYNONYM TO AMBITIOUS, RUTHLESS, AND DECEITFUL Note: MUST have a good relationship with child (wants to put the child in power as deputy)
The Other Candidate - OPEN This is also an incredibly important role to have. Only audition for this character if you are sure you can be active and cooperate with plot basics. Can be any name, any gender, any age (preferably a middle-aged cat) Note: MUST HAVE TRAITS THAT ARE OR SYNONYM TO CALM AND HUMBLE (remember, you are the other deputy candidate because you ain't wild and crazy like the current deputy)
The Group - OPEN This is the group of cats that will be going initially to find the descendent of Maelstrom. This is incredibly important to be active in! Characters can be any name, any gender, any age Note: Do not fear if you do not get one of these character audition slots! There will be another group later, although I cannot say why c: Note: MINIMUM OF 5 CHARACTERS (NOT COUNTING DEPUTY'S CHILD) Note: Characters can either trust or distrust the deputy's child, it is up to the role-player's discretion
Deputy's Child - 5AM This is the son of the current deputy. Note: It is up to the role-players of the group mates to trust or distrust this character, so be aware of this Note: MUST have a good relationship with deputy (deputy wants to put you in power!)
OTHER AUDITIONS WILL BE OPENED AS THE PLOT PROGRESSES. REMEMBER, THESE ARE ONLY THE BASIC CHARACTERS TO START OFF THE PLOT. MANY MORE WILL BE INTRODUCED OVER TIME- SO, IF YOU DO NOT GET ONE OF THESE AUDITIONS SLOT, DO NOT FEAR! YOU CAN ALWAYS AUDITION FOR THE NEXT SET.

lemon ✩ | deputy Chillytoe | Tom | 30-45 moons With a strong build and broad frame, Chillytoe is a fairly well-built tom. His fur is long and thick, dark in hue with a few brown splotches here and there. Also known as a tortoiseshell. He's a Maine Coon, giving him that large appearance. His eyes are an almond shape, green in hue and thick tufts of fur on his ear. This tom is has strong feet, giving him easy leverage. A not-so-easy target for jokes and attacks, Chillytoe is a strong and independent tom. He's an ambitious tom, always knowing what he wants to do way before it's put into action. The Maine Coon is a raging flame, expanding with the simple breath. The day started off sweet and simple. The sun rising with a subtle red gleam in the sky. The soft songs of birds off in the distance echoed off the ground and the trees surrounding the territory. A soft breeze weaved through the strands of grass and the reeds in the surrounding territories, the gentle rustling of leaves overhead like music to the ears of the early morning patrol. Strutting in front of the group of four was a frail-looking she-cat. Her fur was mostly a dusty brown hue, though her ears, paws, and tail were black, and her underbelly was a soft white. With a piercing gaze focused ahead of her and ears drawn back, the small female strutted forward, her tail swaying to and fro. "Ma'am?" a small voice piped up behind her, causing the female to stop in her tracks and let her head turn to focus her gaze on the small black tom whom had talked. "Why are we going out so early?" He began complaining. With pupils narrowing, the she-cat flattened her ears against her skull and let out a threatening hiss. "Because we're making sure the clan is safe," she spat towards him, anger boiling within her chest. The dusty Siamese felt a fluffy tail across her shoulders and she snapped her head to lay her gaze on the welcoming face of her sister, Rose. Letting out a gentle sigh, the rose-brown she-cat let her soothing tone of voice exit her vocals. "Moss, please. Take it easy on the poor kid. He doesn't know better," she said softly, her tail sliding from her sister's shoulders. The dark hued Siamese nodded her head before stalking off, tail swaying in frustration. Who does she think she is? Bossing me around like that? she thought to herself, shaking her head softly. Her dainty paws hit the soft ground quietly, the sound of felines behind her making her only wanting to speed up. The welcoming sight of sunlight made the she-cat's ears perked, her pace quickening to a trot. After being dumped on the past leaf-bear, she was looking forward to the warmth of the sun. Meeting the sunlight, Moss' green eyes closed in happiness, a raspy purr escaping her chest. She settled down in a loafing position before her peace was disrupted by the rest of the patrol. Gathering her weight to her paws, the dusty brown she-cat shook out her fur, hearing the soft giggle of her sister behind her. She shot her a menacing glare before strutting forward as if she owned the world.

Yes, please audition for things! We really need those characters for the plot to be successful.
Good audition, lemon! I'm waiting to see if others will audition first, and all audition decisions will be made just before the clan opens officially.

If you would like to help, you could write up territory portions? Such a the camp, dens, etc.?
I can do territory itself, but the camp and dens need to be written up. Overall, the clan dwells on a rocky cliffside essentially.
