(So, what can we do to encourage people not to give up? I have a roleplay of my own that isn't terribly active, probably doesn't get more than two or three posts a day, but it keeps going. And, when some of the members stop coming, that's when I have to replace them with other people who are active and want the spot. Β―\_(γ)_/Β―)

( My suggestion is a set overarching plot. I'm in a few rps that get really slow as a lot of our members are in college, so they have to take breaks, but it has still lasted several months following a plot. Everyone is still active enough to continue it, we just need to have breaks or slower moments sometimes. Also, I don't know this this rp has semi-lit rules, but if I'm allowed occasional one liners when I am a bit writer's blocked it's less stressful to be active. cx )

(I remember that, on the WCF, one the main plots for this rp was that ThunderClan had a problem with rogues and the Dark Forest. I don't know about the other Clans, though, because I wasn't a part of them back then. Now I am. So, I think, maybe whatever plot we decide on should involve all the Clans, just to make sure they all get enough activity.)

(If y'all think we can keep it chugging along... Sure, we'll try one more time. Any ideas for plots? Usually for rps I like to do one small one per Clan and then one big one to unite all of them. Hm. Maybe for a big one we could do some kind of return of BloodClan thing? Idk it just occurred to me out of the blue lmao.)

( I like the BloodClan idea. cx Though yeah, each clan should have an important plot, so it's not just one clan is active and the others are slow. Also maybe a group pm chat so everyone can talk over things? Or a discussion thread, or both? )

Post by Aphelyon on Dec 12, 2017 16:54:19 GMT -5
Hm. A thread means anyone can see it, so more people might be attracted to the rp. But a PM would mean we could be more secretive lol.

( At this point, we want people to see it. cx Maybe a pm chat can come later if it gets active? Either group to vote and talk about things or between mods to discuss secret plot stuff? )

Yeah a secret mod chat wouldn't be a bad addition if it comes to that but I think for general members, an open thread might be best.

Another thought: in the true spirit of canon, maybe we should come up with a prophecy as well? But make it a bit more obscure than they usually are in the books, and less ThunderClan-centric.

A prophecy about BloodClan?

(But, yeah, I love all your ideas about BloodClan and a prophecy and a chat page!)

The prophecy probably would involve BloodClan, yes. I'm actually now thinking of a kind of weird plot maybe involving some kits from probably RiverClan and ShadowClan who might have been born full or half BloodClan? Not sure if that sounds super fanficy lmao. But it's plausible, as much as those two Clans intermingled with BloodClan...

Don't be afraid to be fanficy. cx This is basically an fan fiction lol. I think it's a good idea, plus those are my favorite clans if you exclude SkyClan, which would be before ShadowClan. I like RiverClan. I think a main plot with prophecy surrounding them, instead of being right out about ThunderClan, would be nice. Though maybe just half-BloodClan? How long after BloodClan's battle does this take place again?

I think its like 12 moons or something? I would have to look to figure out exactly. Either way, any kits with BloodClan lineage would probably be most of the way through their apprenticeship, perhaps just starting to become warriors at the eldest. I also imagine there wouldn't be a great many of them- maybe three or four litters at most- and a good number would probably have no idea they were part BloodClan.
In any case, I have a few vague concepts at the moment. It seems likely that some of the survivors of BloodClan would continue it to some degree or another, though they obviously would have less of a following and reputation without Scourge as their leader. I think perhaps a particularly conniving leader might come to head, and again set their eyes on the forest. This would be one way the BloodClan descendants could come into play, basically where the leader tries to enamore them with a romanticized version of BloodClan and convince them to act as spies or saboteurs within the Clans. Non-BloodClan apprentices could also be roped in, especially those who are close friends with the BloodClan ones.
As always, we could also somewhat rope the Dark Forest into it. Obviously, like in canon, they're scheming and training cats but I'm sure we can figure out a way to give them a bit more of a direct tie in with the BloodClan plot. Perhaps Tigerstar trying to do something to further his own goals, whether to help BloodClan destroy the Clans, or to destroy BloodClan in revenge for Scourge's betrayal. Not sure which seems more likely lol.

(That idea sounds great! And, I don't know whether Tigerstar would want to destroy BloodClan or the other Clans either. cx I guess it just depends which ones he's the most angry at. Ooh, or, he's secretly plotting to destroy them both. Like, he wants to try to get BloodClan and the Clans to fight each other again, but this time just end up destroying each other? Hhmmn.)

(true... like, maybe he's trying to get BloodClan to infiltrate and destroy the Clans in some way, and then have the current leader of BloodClan die off, since BloodClan is pretty much nothing without its leader, lacking any particular infrastructure like the Clans.)

(So, what can we do to encourage people not to give up? I have a roleplay of my own that isn't terribly active, probably doesn't get more than two or three posts a day, but it keeps going. And, when some of the members stop coming, that's when I have to replace them with other people who are active and want the spot. Β―\_(γ)_/Β―) (oh no *checks your rp* it's been months?
I'm claiming Ashfur and Spiderpaw, as before.)

Ferncloud | Nursery Ferncloud was lying in her nest in the nursery, curled around her three kits, who were sleeping by her side. The gray queen could feel their soft breaths on her belly as they twitched in their sleep, undoubtedly dreaming about chasing butterflies and hunting for their Clan. She gazed at them fondly. They would surely grow up to be wonderful, strong warriors. ThunderClan would be proud. Looking back up at the entrance of the bramble den, she wondered when Dustpelt would get back from hunting. The kits would be hungry when they woke up, and Ferncloud had begun to feed them little bits of prey along with their milk. Soon, they wouldnβt need to drink any more milk at all. They would be big and strong enough to eat fresh-kill.

Graystripe: ThunderClan Camp; Warrior's Den
The fluffy deputy stretched his limbs and claws, a rumbling purr sounding from him as he blinked sleep from his eyes. He had taken a brief nap after a patrol earlier that day, and quickly sat up to groom himself.
Birchkit: ThunderClan Camp; Nursery
Birchkit slept beside his mother, his breath melodic and slow as he dreamed of chasing butterflies. He let out a tiny, sleepy mew as he fell over in his dream, and wiggled to turn to his other side, kicking the kit next him him without realizing it.
