I personally never like to consider a rp dead until the creator deems it so and closes it. Which is always a sad day.

Yo! Lmao idk why no one wants to join this. Like, people make basic Clans like this all the time, and look for borders, so I would think this would have at least a few more than just us. Hm.

I know the feeling. I have a few ideas as to why, but I feel like it's best kept quiet because some could get angry.

I don't think it's issues here, just Fan Clans and how some stuff gets more attention that imho shouldn't.

Ah. Fair enough lmao. Really, I think it's that people are more likely to actually go to planning pages for stuff that's more "unique," while for Clans like this, I feel like a lot of people would rather either come up with all their Clans on their own, or to make one or two and then sort of sloppily tack on some border Clans after the fact. Which I mean, we could possibly do. Just make our two Clans, use whatever map we want, and then if anyone else is interested in taking one of the other territories we work out the deets with them and then add them in after the fact. I feel as though these Clans will get more attention once they're out of the Clan Planning forum (at least I darn well hope so XD )

I always felt like the subforum for planning pages kinda killed them. You really have to get people's attention to post or ask friends. I can possibly post this link in a discord server. One last try before moving on and the potential third person dealing with what is decided.

Sure, go for it. I'll post a link in one of my Clans as well and maybe snag someone. Likely not, but I'll give it a go.

Not in particular, if we're waiting to see if anyone else wants to join in. If you wanted to start brainstorming names, landmarks, and that sort of thing, we could do that, but we won't settle 100% on anything just yet (except, perhaps, landmarks that aren't dependent on which map we use). I'm also thinking we should start out with some plots for the Clans- nothing crazy, but little things that can happen to have something to "do," a direction to go from the start. I think each Clan should have it's own small plot, and then something bigger to sort of unite them. It doesn't have to be anything especially relevant from the start... it could be a slow build. Smaller plots could be things like a den of foxes trying to move into the territory, for example, or a small outbreak of disease. A uniting plot could be something like a larger outbreak that affects all the Clans, or even a disaster like a drought, flood, or forest fire (the latter wouldn't have to be a huge disaster, just enough to kill off a lot of foliage and prey, and make things hard for a while). Or, anything else any of you can think of, really.

Yay ^^ are you still doing SpringClan as well?
Also I marked the title as being "last chance" so maybe that'll drag in anyone who's been uncertain if they want to join in or not... I would say that if by tonight, or at least just a few hours from now, if no one else has come in we'll just start doing what we want and they can deal with it if they want to join in later lmao.

Would we want a theme or name them after cats or the land?

Post by Aphelyon on Oct 13, 2017 15:10:56 GMT -5
Hmmmmm. I'm not sure. I would say probably names of a similar theme would be best; however, they don't have to be a very narrow topic. For example, they might not all have to be named after animals, or trees, or whatever. The theme could be broader categories, like things relating to their territory somehow as you suggested (for example, you could have PebbleClan for a Clan that lives near the river, and BranchClan for a forest Clan). I had also had a somewhat quirky idea at one point, which might be fun or might not, of each Clan having a particular coat color or pattern which they are almost exclusively made up of. For example, you could have "TabbyClan" made almost only of striped cats, and "SpottedClan" which mostly has bi-color or tortoiseshell cats. Or, Clans for pretty much any other major coat pattern category you could think of (like plain/unicolor, or whatever else). You could also potentially divide them by color rather than pattern, or by markings perhaps. I thought it could be a fun little idea which could make a set of Clans a bit quirky without changing the actual "gameplay" all that much, but I'm not sure if it would seem to limit the characters for each Clan too much.

I think the names being related to the territory, like PebbleClan and BranchClan, sound cool. c: Although, they would have to be more specific and creative than just RiverClan or ForestClan, you know?

I agree with Maple. I'm not sure about the coat colors or designs because I feel like it won't be received how we want, ya know?

Post by Aphelyon on Oct 13, 2017 16:44:27 GMT -5
Yeah, precisely lol. It's a cute idea but I'm not sure how well it would work here. So if we're in favor of territory-based names, I suppose we should decide in more detail what the territories are like, and then name them after that.

I was thinking dense forest with maybe a clearing and a small creek or something.

Post by Aphelyon on Oct 13, 2017 17:13:53 GMT -5
Yeah, I remember you had wanted the denser forest.... are we gonna go with map 3? Because in that case, since you had wanted Territory 4, there already is a stream running through that territory. And then there's the section marked ? which could be a disputed area.

Map three sounds good to me. Though will we just cut off the rest of the territories if we can't find a third person?
|
|

Post by Aphelyon on Oct 13, 2017 17:53:48 GMT -5
Something like that. Though I'm thinking of sort of leaving them on in spirit, at least temporarily, and that way in the fledgling days of the Clans if anyone else wants to join in as the third & possibly fourth Clan, they can take the territories that are left. But after, like, the first Gathering or something along those lines, if there's no one else, then it'll be down to just us permanently.

Well, I got an idea. We could leave the territory open and have a plot where they fight over it. We can leave them open until after the first Gathering like you said, but perhaps say that something drove them out or the territory shrunk due to something.

Post by Aphelyon on Oct 13, 2017 18:01:07 GMT -5
True, if it remains unclaimed for too long perhaps you could go with a story that that Clan was destroyed or driven out for some reason. Then if it was claimed, the third Clan would have to be brough back through roleplay, which can be challenging... but it would certainly be possible.
