Shroudedclan
Intro
The first was bright, the warm rays of light peeking through the leaves of the trees. Quiet and peaceful, the only sounds that could be heard were the songs of the birds, the whistling of the wind, and the rustling of the leaves. You would have thought it was beautiful if you weren't running for your life.
Since you came to this forest looking for a place to call your own, you felt like you were being watched. Hunted. You have done whatever you could to hide yourself, from rolling in mud to mask your scent to backtracking the way you came to make your movements unpredictable. Nothing seemed to be working, and it wasn't until you stepped into the clearing of tall grass that you saw your hunter.
The hawk was still following as you leaped over a fallen tree. It was gaining, not slowed by bushes and trees as you were. There was no doubt that it would have you the second there was an opening.
The moment your paw caught on a twig was the moment you lost. Tumbling along the ground, you couldn't get up fast enough, seeing the hawk swoop down, talons open. Closing your eyes tightly, you waited for the talons to sink into your pelt. Yet the feeling never came. Opening an eye, you noticed the hawk landed beside you, watching you with strange interest. That's when it happened. The hawk started to transform.
Wings folding back and disappearing, feathered tail closing and becoming bushy, an extra pair of legs touching the ground, you had no words for the cat that appeared in front of you, taking the place of what you thought was a hawk. The tom smiled.
"Quite the chase, huh?" He said. "You seem at a loss of words." You said nothing, still trying to figure out what just happened. It didn't seem he was waiting for any sort of reply from you though.
"You are trespassing on Shroudedclan territory," He continued. "My name is Hawkstar, leader of the clan. What is your name?" This time, you were expected to answer. Yet when you tried to, you couldn't. Finding a new home meant leaving everything behind, and so your old name would not do you any good anymore. You found yourself shrugging, with no answer for neither him nor yourself. He frowned at the gesture.
"No name? Well, that won't do. It is in my blood to make sure everyone has one. In that case, would you like to join our clan and gain yourself a name? It is your choice."
Will you join this strange clan and find yourself a new name and life, or will you remain nameless and continue to wander?

If you have any questions, feel free to ask, I will answer you to the best of my ability. History
The clan was created a long time ago. The woods were fought over by many rogues, each trying to claim part of the territory as their own. As the moons passed, the battle became worse, with many cats dead. One cat looked at the bloodshed. Due to the fighting, he had lost everything, even his name. He saw only suffering, and knew no good would come if this fight continued. Looking to the stars, he begged the sky for something, anything, that would help end the war. To his surprise, he witnessed nine cats who's pelt were dabbled with stars approach him. The leader stepped forward, studying the nameless tom.
"You do not remember me, but I was the first cat you killed," The leader said, continuing before she could be interrupted. "Like you, I have no name, and the same can be said of my companions. And like you, we, along with the rest of the dead cats that rest beyond the stars, wish to stop the fighting. We wish to reclaim the names we should have had, and with them our future. We are dead, and so we have no say in what the living does. However, if you are serious about stopping this fight, then we will do what we can to help you." She looked to her companions, who nodded in agreement. Turning her gaze back to their only hope, she continued. "Do you accept our help?"
The nameless tom turned away from the cats of stars. Once again he focused on the blood and suffering around him. To him, there was no other choice.
"I accept."
That day, nine cats of the stars gifted the first leader with nine lives and a name. He would become Shroudedstar, the first leader of the clan, of whom stood before the others and told them of the nine cats who visited him, the cats becoming known as members of Starclan. He would gain followers, others who wished for a name and future beyond this suffering, until all the cats were with him. They called themselves Nameclan, where none would go nameless. To fix the territory around them so it was suitable to live in once more, Starclan gave Shroudedstar and all the cats with him gifts pertaining to their new names. One cat could control plants, another could cause rain. Shroudedstar himself could cause a great fog to settle within the forest, masking the scent of the cats and protecting them from other predators. Their powers would only be given when the cats were named, and so no cat would ever go nameless again. After Shroudedstar's last life was given, he joined the others in the stars. To honor him and what he had done for them, the remaining cats renamed their clan after him.
About the Cats
Shroudedclan is a power cat role-play. The prefixes of the names determine the power of the cat, and so no two cats can have the same prefix at once. The eyes and pelts can be any color a normal cat has. Strange marking are allowed, as long as you don't go crazy with them. There will not be any strange names, and powers cannot involve controlling another character, such as no mind reading, mind control, emotion control, etc. If you have any questions about powers, feel free to ask.
To make the role-play more interesting, I may ask you if you want your cat to be siblings with another if they are the same age. It is up to you and the other person, and don't feel pressured to say yes.

Shroudedclan
Camp Shroudedclan camp is located beside the Pine, the only pine tree in the territory.
>>The High Stone; Located in the center of camp, it is a giant rock jutting from the earth, and is where the leader calls meetings. It is said that it was the very place where Shroudedstar first spoke to Starclan. >>The Leader's Den; The leader's den is located in the roots of the Pine. >>The Warriors' Den; The warriors' den is located in a bramble thicket near the camp entrance. >>The Apprentices' Den; The apprentices' den is located in a bramble thicket on the other side of the camp entrance. >>The Elders' Den; The elders' den is located on the far side of camp where an opening shines sun right outside. >>The Nursery; The nursery is located in a fern bush near the elder's den. >>The Medicine Cat's Den; The medicine cat's den is located under the High Stone. It has three sections, one with nests for sick cats, one where the medicine cats can sleep, and one for the herb storage.
Territory Shroudedclan lives in a broadleaf forest, filled with oak, maple, and birch. Some of the notable locations within the territory include;
>>Rivers; Two winding rivers at the edge of the territory that meet at a small waterfall, where they become one river that moves through the rest of the territory. >>Waterfall; Where the two rivers meet. There is a small cave behind it. Inside is the Moonrock, a large, softly glowing stone that is infused with the ground. Medicine cats come here to meet with Starclan. >>Hunting Grounds; A thin clearing of land covered in tall grass where patrols go to hunt mice. >>Burial Grounds; A tall pile of rocks that mark the resting ground of the dead. >>The Pine; A huge pine tree, the only one in the forest, that grows on the edge of camp. Time of Year
[x] New-leaf [] Green-leaf [] Leaf-fall [] Leaf-bare >>Weather; New-leaf has arrived. The days are chilly, though not as cold as Leaf-bare. The sun is out most of the time, and though there is still risk of snow, it is more likely to rain. Traditions
>>The Naming Ceremony; This ceremony is the most important to the clan. When a kit turns 6 moons old, they are taken to the Moonrock. Here, the leader calls out the new name of the kit, who then touches their nose to the rock. On this day, a Starclan cat descends and gives the kit a gift pertaining to their name, and names the mentor that would best help them. Afterwards, once the kit is back in camp, they call the name of their mentor, who then accepts them as their apprentice.
>>Upon the End; When a cat dies, their body is taken before the High Stone. The leader presses their nose against the cat, wishing them luck with their new life among the stars. The leader then looks to the sky and calls to the cats name swearing that they would never be forgotten. The closest members to the cat then carries the body to the Burial Grounds, and most times the next kit born to the cat's family or friends will take the name of their ancestor. Joining Page Link

Shroudedclan The Cats of the Clan
Leader Hawkstar - Male - 29 moons - Leader Hawkstar has the power to turn into a hawk roughly his size. He has the abilities of a hawk when in this form, but it has risks. He can only remain in the form for a certain amount of time before he starts to think too much like one, where his body starts to corrupt his mind. He can also be at risk as he cannot fight back very well as one, and so is open to an attack. He is a ginger and brown tabby tom with white markings along his flank. His eyes are yellow, and he has a thicker build and tail. He is a good fighter in his cat form. He tries to be funny and optimistic, though he sometimes struggles to remain so. He is friendly, enjoying to talk with his clan-mates, and he is protective of his clan. When he feels too stressed, he has a habit of hiding in his den so his clan-mates don't have to see. || *Raincaller* ||
Deputy I will choose based on the role-play and activity. If you wish for a cat to be considered, put it in your form.

Shroudedclan The Cats of the Clan
Senior Warriors Rockstorm - Male - 52 moons - Senior Warrior Rockstorm has the power to control rocks. He could lift something as big as a small boulder. In order to do so, he expends some of his own strength and energy, and the effort can put too much stress on his mind. The older he gets, the less powerful he is. He is a powerful tom with a grey-brown tabby pelt and green eyes. Big and strong, he is not as fast as an average cat, but he remains surprisingly light on his feet. With a few scars, one of which is over his right eye, he seems scary. Despite hiss looks, he is friendly and kind, a very fatherly cat that is protective of his clan. He plans to remain a warrior for as long as possible, and is very understanding of younger cats, such as apprentices. He is known for not punishing others and is very good with kits, happy to amuse them with games and stories. || *Raincaller* ||
Warriors Sandstrike - Female - 29 moons - Warrior Sandstrike has the power to become sand. In this form, she can still move about as a sandstorm, however, she can only do this for a limited period of time. She cannot use her power in rain or snow storms, but wind doesn't effect her. She is a ginger she-cat with distinctive white markings along her pelt and yellow eyes. Her legs are long, allowing her to be fast, with sharp claws and a steady tail. She is a loyal cat, but she is strict and doesn't let others get away with anything. She could be shrewd, and being observant she notices little things around camp. She works harder than most, known for going off on her own to hunt or mark borders. She tries to be polite to others, though sometimes she turns out blunt instead. || *Raincaller* ||
Apprentices Thornpaw - Male - 10 moons - Apprentice Thornpaw has the power to grow thorns out of his pelt. By doing so he can cause others injury and defend himself, though it is not an invincible shield and he could easily get stuck and injured when doing so. He is a dark brown tabby tom, his fur thinner and soft. His belly and chest are white, stretching up to the bottom of his head. With blueish green eyes and large ears, he is attentive and alert. He doesn't always like to play games, always trying to look mature in front of warriors, though if there are other apprentices around he has a tendency to get distracted. || *Raincaller* ||
Wavepaw - Male - 8 moons - Apprentice Wavepaw has the power to control waves of water. He can amplify the waves, causing them to grow or shrink, controlling the tide. However, he needs to be near enough water for his power to work, such as the rivers. He is a grey and white tom with green eyes. His fur is thick and his legs are short. He has large ears with white tip, and three of his paws are white. Due to his fur, he both dislikes heat and water. He could be found lounging in the shade or grooming himself, as he has a habit of getting dirty easily. He tries to be serious, but in truth he is just competitive and loves to have fun and laugh. He is insecure though, and losing pricks a darker part of his mind. || *Raincaller* ||
Waterpaw - Female - 8 moons - Apprentice Waterpaw has the power to control water, from rain to rivers. To use her power, she requires concentration. It expends her energy and focus, causing her extreme pain. She is a light grey tabby she-cat with blue eyes. Her belly and tail tip are white, and she has smooth fur and large ears. She is small, a little more than half the size of a normal cat. She is extremely energetic. She loves water, and loves to have fun. She is playful, friendly, and curious. She is known to ask too many questions that causes her to become annoying. She is surprisingly strong for her small size, being better at battle training than at hunting. Optimistic, she looks on the bright side and for the better parts of another cat. || *Raincaller* ||

Shroudedclan The Cats of the Clan
Queens Swiftsparrow - Female - 32 moons - Queen Swiftsparrow has enhanced speed and agility. However, it is at the expense of her strength, and she needs endurance to keep it up. She is a brown tortoiseshell she-cat. With dark markings on her face, her body has slightly lighter colors. Her eyes are a pale green. She is extremely overprotective, even becoming aggressive if someone insults her. Otherwise she is a chatterbox, loving to talk to others and make friends. She has a hard time keeping secrets and tends to eavesdrop on conversations, though at this point it is a well known fact not to trust her with any sort of secret. At the current moment, she is carrying kits. || *Raincaller* ||
