Many, many moons ago, a beautiful she-cat named Gaia was in the process of giving birth hidden away in the depths of a radiant hollow. Gaia was the spirit of the forest and it's sole protector, her love for the forest and it's subjects was so strong, it provided her with five heirs to carry her legacy forward. She knew that as she was giving birth her life force was slowly being drained and passed onto her 5 kits. She would not live to see the next sunrise. As the last kit was born and her time was waning she named her five kits; Cougar, Bear, Lynx, Owl and Wolf. With her dying breath, she enchanted each to be in the graces with their respective animals so they would always be protected and share the powers of their guardian spirits. As she passed, her spirit went into the hot springs which lay behind her where she would remain and always be for her kits.
Moons had passed and the kits had grown into healthy young adults. They had been taken in by the large group of cats that lived on the distant shore of their expansive homeland. As the children of Gaia, it was common knowledge that as the kits came of age, one of them would step up to become leader of the cats. Only no cat knew who it would be. Once the kits had reached about a year old, it was decided the chosen one would be old enough to become the leader and it would be obvious to which of them it was, only it was not obvious at all. Each of them had their own specialty that was immeasurable in comparison to that of a normal cats. Cougar was an amazing hunter. He could catch any type of prey with ease. Bear was the strongest cat the forest had ever seen, he could fight any opponent and win in a battle of pure muscle. Lynx was an excellent climber, she could climb even the highest of trees. Owl had vision like no other she could see a moth let out a breath across a massive field. And Wolf was fast in every aspect no cat dare challenge him to a race. All five of Gaia's kits begin to argue over who should lead the cats, each of them had an equal amount of followers who agreed that they were the rightful leader. One day a full out war broke out and blood bathed the shore. The spirit of Gaia herself came down and demanded they stop this ridiculous squabble as all five of the chosen ones were meant to divide and lead the lands cats in unity. As a permanent reminder that they were to lead the land together and never again let blood be shed for a pointless reason, she scarred each of her kits with a mark that would remain for the rest of their lives. After this, Cougar, Bear, Owl, Lynx and Wolf gathered up the remaining cats and allowed them to decide which cat they wished to follow. Gaia's kin then led their followers to new territory taking the names of clans and setting codes to live by.
Cougarclan is known for their prowess in hunting and excellent endurance. These cats typically have short and thick fur, greatly helping in shielding them from the strong winds that blast the mountains and preventing their pelts from retaining to much moisture from their altitude. Their legs have to be long and muscular to manage living in their treacherous terrain. Their paw pads are thick and hard from walking on the rocky territory. When new kits first join Cougarclan they often struggle with getting used to the sharp rocks. Cats in this clan tend to be great at jumping, as often they will catch prey straight from the sky. They tend to eat large birds, rabbits, elks and pretty much anything that runs into their territory. Cougarclan cats are known to be sly and fierce.
Bearclan is known for their immense strength and greatness in battle. These cats typically have short, thin coarse fur. They are huge and muscular in stature and have dagger sharp long claws. You would never want to disturb a Bearclan cat from their sleep as they greatly value their rest at upmost importance. Their paw pads tend to be wide and thick due to spending the majority of their time underground. When a new kit first joins Bearclan it takes their eyes a bit of time to adjust to the darker environment. Bearclan cats hunt out in the forest for the most part although they do hunt some smaller prey such as salmon or underground animals like mice and shrews in the system of tunnels surrounding their camp. Bearclan cats are known to be bold and vigorous.
Owlclan is known for their sharp vision and excellency in stealth. These cats typically have soft short hair and large eyes. Out of all the clans, Owlclan cats tend to be the smallest as they are short and skinny in their stature. Their lithe figure suits them well when it comes to silently weaving through the long, tall grass in their territory without causing any disturbances to alert enemies or prey. When a new kit first joins this clan, they often struggle to learn the gracefulness it takes to move silently through the grassland. Owlclan cats will climb up the few trees in their territory to spot prey or intruders. They take turns keeping lookout and have a system of signals to alert clanmates of foes or prey. They tend to hunt smaller prey that lives on the ground including mice and rabbits. They also hunt various birds. Owlclan cats are known to be clever and observant.
Lynxclan is known for their specialty in climbing and natural agility. These cats typically have long, thin fur. Their legs are long and powerful and they have thick, sturdy claws. Due to frequent climbing in their craggy home, their paw pads are thick and firm, allowing for the rocks to not bother them and for an easier landing. When a kit first joins Lynxclan they will often struggle with learning how to find a sense of balance so they may climb with ease. These cats will try to hunt almost anything though they prefer to hunt birds and fish above all else. Lynxclan members are known to be kind and rash.
Wolfclan is known for their immense speed and prowess in strategizing. These cats have the longest coats of any of the other clans and have dense, water repellent pelts. They are long legged and extremely toned. These cats swim frequently and are both fast on land and sea. Because of swimming often, their paws are wide and large and have thicker paw pads, some cats may even almost have webbed paws. Their wide paws also greatly assist and helping them with their signature excellence in all things involving speed. When a kit first joins Wolfclan the thing the usually struggle with the most at first is learning how to always be alert and thinking of what could happen in their surrondings. Wolfclan cats love eating fish due to being aquaphilic but they also love hunting larger prey and anything else that puts up a nice challenge to them. Wolfclan cats are known to be Brave and loyal.
