If you're an outsider not in the clan: This is our territory, outsider. If we find you then you'd best be prepared for a fight. We'll defend our home with everything we have! So the choice is yours, join us or leave... Coding by 𝔯𝔞𝔟𝔟𝔦𝔱𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔰𝔱
Territory A large swamp and marshy area, a few ponds and lakes around the area all connected by small streams. During Greenleaf these streams usually dry up causing the other bodies are water to dry out a bit too. Mostly dead and old trees are scattered around the territory, providing shade and dens for many creatures, prey and predators alike. Land marks around the territory include: ⦁ Training Grounds- Directly south of the camp is an open patch of dirt, warriors take their apprentices here for battle training. The ground is soft which makes it safer to wrestle on, when it rain it make the dirt into slippery mud which can help teach apprentices how to keep their footing in usually wet territory.
⦁ Heron Lake- North of camp is the a large lake, home to many wetland birds especially Herons. Cat's will usually come here to fish or hunt for frogs, salamanders, or smaller snakes. All cats are warned to be on guard for snakes, poisonous or not a snake attack could be bad.
⦁ Blossom Field- To the north east of camp is a small open plain that the medicine cat's use to grow and find herbs to restock their supplies. Being a rather beautiful place compared the rest of the territory, some cats sneak off here to relax and have fun.
⦁ Lily Pond & The Mud Streams- To the west of camp is a pond filled with lilies connected to two rivers that split off into smaller streams that feed into Shadow Shore. The Mud Streams are a very slippery and muddy area with rivers and streams passing south, some unlucky cats and other creatures had gotten stuck in the mud before.
⦁ Shimmer Pool- Shortly west of Lily Pond is Shimmer Pool. A small, shallow pool of water with strange clear water despite the water feeding into it from Lily Pond being murky. Medicine cats and leaders come here to speak with Starclan.
⦁ Snake Rock- Far north west of camp is Snake Rocks, and area scattered with rocks big and small. These rocks make an excellent home for snakes, the cold blooded creatures hide under the rocks for shelter making the place dangerous to walk through.
⦁ Shadow Shore- In the southern area of the territory is a deep, murky lake. So dark it's impossible for any cat to see the bottom of it. A certain large and dangerous predator makes place their home, alligators. No one is ever meant to go there, all cats should know better than to even go near that place.
⦁ Thunderpath- Close to the eastern border is a large thunderpath, monsters are seen traveling down the thunderpath every day. Sometimes you can even hear them all the way in camp.
⦁ Two-leg Place- Right across the Thunderpath is the Two-leg Place, home to rogues, loners, kitty-pets, and of course two-legs. Clan cats don't go here, and usually chase off any outsiders who come into the territory.
Camp The Venomclan camp is in the middle of the main territory in a big, spacious valley. The camp walls are dark, muddy rocks with plants and vines growing out of the cracks and from the top of the camp. The ground is soft with some tiny rocks here and there. Venomclan's camp entrance is a small burrow that leads up and out into the territory, the outside entrance is protected with brambles and vine thorns to keep potential threats out.
⦁ Leader's Den- The leader's den is hidden under and old, still standing tree to the far east of the camp. Leader's that are young usually choose to give clan meetings from the tree's high branches, while leader's who are older will either give speeches from the tree's base roots or even on the Warmth Stones.
⦁ Warriors Den- A den constructed of old tree logs and branches, stuck together with mud, moss and vines. The top is covered and protected with moss and vines, keeping much of the rain out of the den.
⦁ Apprentices Den- To the east of the warrior's den is the apprentice's den, made primarily from rocks and stones it's cracks are constantly being repaired with mud to keep rain out.
⦁ Medicine Cat's Den- To the north west of camp is the medicine cats den, a cave leading into a small tunnel system that was dug out many seasons ago. Being right beside the shallow drinking area allows easy access to water and some herbs.
⦁ Elder's Den- A fallen, hollowed out tree. Just enough space for most elder's to stretch out when needed.
⦁ Nursery- Right beside the warrior's den is the Nursery, another den made of logs and branches. The ground in the den is made of soft sand taken from the Warmth Stone area.
⦁ Warmth Stones- A group of rocks positioned in camp that are surrounded with soft sand. Cats use the stones to rest and relax in the sun, while queens usually let their kits play in the sand.

VenomClan The Quick and Cunning Rules Rp Rules: All forum rules apply here!
Please try to be active, I understand everyone has lives of their own but whenever you're here on the forum please try to rp here if you can.
If you plan on not being here for a while let me know so you don't get deleted.
To have a high rank character you must be active and be able to type at least 4 sentences or more per character in your posts. High ranks include Leader, Deputy, and Medicine cat. First password is 'Snake'.
If you already have a high rank character then you cannot have another high rank character, you may only have one at a time.
Please don't be too detailed on things like deaths, battle wounds, or giving birth. Children use these forums so let's not make it too mature. Everyone should have a nice, safe time here!
Please don't join with your characters being mates, its more fun to pair up characters with different members!
Same with mates you can't mentor your own apprentice character, they may interact with one another but I will make sure every apprentice is paired with another person's warrior.
People who are inactive on the thread for two weeks without giving a warning before hand will be deleted, but feel free to join back up if you think you can be more active again
Please be literate; you don't have to make massive rp posts but I don't expect at least 4-6 sentences per character being rpd in the post. Also correct spelling and grammar is a must, mistakes happen though so no worries if there's some mistakes here and there.
When talking OOC please be sure to use [], (), {}, or some way for us to know what is OOC and BIC.
No godmodding or powerplaying, especially in fights. Give the person a chance to have their characters defend themselves and counter if need be.
Don't kill another person's character without that person's permission.
Make your characters realistic, no powers, wings, unrealistic fur and eye colors.
Since there is no such thing as a perfect character make sure any character you make has some flaws, but don't make them a complete failure either please.
Please ask me before doing major rp ideas, I'm okay with animal attacks out in the territory and other minor kinds of drama.
Rp rules are meant to be broken for drama and fun, just don't go too crazy with all the rule breaking.
No spotlighting, everyone will have their moments in the spotlight eventually.
I reserve the right to change the rules whenever I see fit.
The Warrior Code - Defend your Clan, even with your life.
- All relationships with cats outside the clan are forbidden.
- Elders, queens, and kits must be fed before apprentices and warriors. Unless they have permission, apprentices may not eat until they have hunted to feed the elders or trained with their mentors.

- Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to StarClan for its life.

- A warrior rejects the soft life of a kitty-pet.
Outsiders wishing to join must receive a warrior name, to reject this is disrespectful and will get the outsider kicked out again. Medicine cats cannot have mates or kits. Medicine cats can never, ever tell anyone else about the secret of Snake Bane. Take the secret with you to Starclan.

Though mostly black furred, he has white fur on his ear tips, muzzle, chest, stomach, front and back paws, and tail tip. He has narrowed, bright amber eyes. He has scars on his shoulders and bridge of his nose, missing half of his right ear and cuts on his left. He is young for a leader, being younger than most of the warriors he now leads. This has caused some cats to question if he should really be leader, however he has no problem proving to right to lead through fighting. Hollowstar is very short tempered and full of himself, ambitious and willing to do anything to make his clan strong. He is clan-born, his mother was a she-cat named Berryblossom. His only littermate was Oakpaw, who died mysteriously of a snake bite during training. Though he never truly knew his father, everyone said he was the spitting image of a tom named Whiteclaw who died a few days before he was born. ☢ Lives Left: 7 Left
Deputy ☢ Riverheart ☢ She-cat ☢ River ☢ ☢ She has a long ginger tabby coat. She has a medium-length, broad face and is fairly muscular. She's humorous and forthright.

She is rather sensitive and likes to win the affection of everyone around her, and often tries to socialize, but she tends to be awkward. Medicine Cat Apprentice ☢ Turtlepaw ☢ Tom ☢ Ohimesama ☢ ☢ A short, stout dark tabby tom. He has black stripes wrapping around his legs and fading along his body .

☢ Goldenbreeze ☢ She-cat ☢ forestpaw ☢ ☢ A medium sized, long furred she cat with blue hazel eyes. Her coat isn’t too long, and is neat and flowing.

Her stomach, legs, and face are fluffy white fur. Golden breeze has one scar on her right shoulder. she’s very elegant and graceful. She’s loving and patient. She’s also level headed and can think quickly under pressure. She does tend to bottle up her emotions from time to time. Her curiosity can get the best of her as well. ☢ Apprentice: ☢ Darkstorm ☢ Tom ☢ forestpaw ☢ ☢ a short haired tom with dark grey eyes. His pelt is almost all black with a few very dark brown and grey highlights. His coat is very glossy. He has long woeful legs that are built to run. he’s very quiet.

She has deep amber eyes that seem to be permanently set in a dispassionate, half closed state, and long, dramatic white whiskers. Her face is sharp and angular, and her ears seem slightly too large for her head. Blunt and to the point, to the extent of being cruel. Waspwing sees no point in softening her words or pulling any metaphorical punches. Slow to trust, but once you've earned it, she is loyal to a fault and will readily lay her life down for you. Waspwing wasn't born in VenomClan, but she simply rolled into the territory once day with a younger cat on her back, scratches on her face still fresh, and requested be given a chance. She refuses to share where it is she came from or how she knew of the Clan, though her general appearance and lack of Clan social skill does seem to suggest some kind of kittypet or at least urban origin. ☢ Apprentice:
☢ Cherrytuft ☢ She-cat ☢ Fae ☢ ☢ An average sized white she-cat with long-ish fur. She has one yellow eye and one blue eye, and it's hardly a secret that she cannot hear out of the ear closest to the blue one at all, and has some difficulty in the other. Cherrytuft has a soft, kind face, and a sweeping plume of a tail that always seems to have some kind of small collection of leaves caught in it. Compassionate and understanding, if it was possible to convince prey to be caught, she'd try it. Perhaps a bit too trusting of others, as she's always willing to see the best in another cat, even when it's simply not there. Determined and stubborn, as having to work twice as hard to learn things such as how to hunt with her difficulties. ☢ Apprentice:
Apprentices ☢ Snap-paw ☢ She-cat ☢ Videocassette ☢ ☢ A small calico she-cat covered in patches of ginger and black fur against her white coat. She is a munchkin cat, with short stubby legs, and she has hazel eyes. A tiny she-cat with a big attitude. She tends to be haughty and overstate her own abilities, and loves to dish out insults. Even so, with a little love she really just wants to be loved and valued. She tries to make others laugh, even if it turns out as an insult instead. She is prideful only to hide her insecurities. She has a lot to learn, but she has an immense loyalty to those who have the patience to teach her. She refuses to admit where she came from, but it's obvious she came from kittypet origins. She was discovered injured by the thunder path and was nursed back to health in Venomclan. She insisted on staying. ☢ Mentor: Tigerfrost ☢ Warrior Name: Snapfire ☢ Icepaw ☢ Tom ☢ forestpaw ☢ ☢ A small, short furred tom with ice blue eyes. He’s a grey tabby with darker grey tabby markings covering his whole body. He also has large, fluffy ears and feathery tail. He also has white paws, a white tail tip, and a white muzzle. He’s very energetic and social. He’s also patient and empathetic. He’s level headed and a quick thinker. ☢ Mentor: Reedtail ☢ Warrior Name: ☢ Echopaw ☢ She-cat ☢ User ☢ ☢ A fluffy she cat with one blue eye and one dark brown eye. Her pelt is a creamy white, and has grey and black splotches covering her body. She also has grey ears and tail. Her tail is very feathery.

She has a huge sense of humor, and is an all around social butterfly. She hopes to one day be a valued warrior and a useful asset to the clan. ☢ Mentor: Palemouse ☢ Warrior Name: ☢ Whisperpaw ☢ Tom ☢ Fae ☢ ☢ A short, stocky black tom, with notched ears and wide orange eyes. He also possesses a scar over his left eye, which, though it doesn't seem to have affected his vision much, still causes it to squint in bright light, and he relies heavily on the "good" eye. Timid and quick to second guess himself, Whisperpaw is a tom who never learned how to say no. His name may have been a cruel choice by whoever bore him, as he never seems to speak loudly, or much at all. But when he does speak his mind, he proves to be wise beyond his years, with a surprising amount of insight into other cats and how to best solve problems. Whisperpaw arrived with Waspwing. It took him a few days to speak, but he tells a story of being fished from a lake by the she-cat. How he got into the lake, or why she'd save him, is unclear. ☢ Mentor: Darkstorm ☢ Warrior Name: Whisperheart
Queens ☢ Dapplebreeze ☢ She-cat ☢ ❈ Soki ❈ ☢ ☢ Dapplebreeze is a small, lithe, tortoiseshell she-cat. She has a long feathery tail and big paws. She has beautiful green eyes.

Clan News July 2nd - Clan is now open!
Herb List - Borage Leaves - To be chewed and eaten. This plant can be distinguished by its small blue or pink star-shaped flowers and hairy leaves. Great for nursing queens as it helps increase their supply of milk. Also brings down fevers.
- Burdock Root - A tall-stemmed, sharp smelling thistle with dark leaves. A medicine cat must dig up the roots, wash off the dirt, and chew them into a pulp, which can be applied to rat bites. Cures infections.
- Catmint - A delicious-smelling leafy plant that's hard to find in the wild, often found growing in Twoleg gardens. The best remedy for greencough.
- Chervil - A sweet-smelling plant with large, spreading fern-like leaves and small white flowers. The juice of the leaves can be used for infected wounds and chewing the root helps with bellyache.
- Cobweb - Spiderwebs can be found all over the forest; be careful not to bring along the spider when you take the web! Medicine cats wrap it around an injury to soak up blood and keep the wound clean.
- Coltsfoot - A flowering plant, a bit like a dandelion, with yellow or white flowers. The leaves can be chewed into a pulp, which is eaten to help shortness of breath.
- Comfrey - Identifiable by its large leaves and small bell-shaped flowers, which can be pink, white, or purple. The fat black roots of this plant can be chewed into a poultice to mend broken bones or soothe wounds.
- Dock - A plant similar to sorrel. The leaf can be chewed up and applied to soothe scratches.
- Dried Oak Leaf - Collected in leaf-fall and stored in a dry place. Stops infections.
- Feverfew - A small bush with flowers like daisies. The leaves can be eaten to cool down body temperature, particularly for cats with fever or chills.
- Goldenrod - A tall plant, with bright yellow flowers. A poultice of this is terrific for healing wounds.
- Honey - A sweet, golden liquid created by bees. Difficult to collect without getting stung, but great for soothing infections or the throats of cats who have breathed smoke.
- Horsetail - A tall plant with bristly stems that grows in marshy areas. The leaves can be used to treat infected wounds. Usually chewed up and applied as a poultice.
- Juniper Berries - A bush with spiky dark green leaves and purple berries. The berries soothe bellyaches and help cats who are having trouble breathing.
- Lavender - A small purple flowering plant that cures fever.
- Marigold - A bright orange or yellow flower that grows low to the ground. The petals or leaves can be chewed into a pulp and applied as a poultice to wounds. Stops infection.
- Mouse Bile - A bad-smelling liquid that is the only remedy for ticks. Dab a little moss soaked in bile on a tick and it'll fall right off. Wash paws thoroughly in running water afterward.
- Poppy Seeds - Small black seeds shaken from a dried poppy flower, these are fed to cats to help them sleep. Soothes cats suffering from shock or distress. Not recommended for nursing queens.
- Stinging Nettle - The spiny green seeds can be administered to a cat who's swallowed poison, while the leaves can be applied to a wound to bring down swelling. Soak thoroughly first to take away the sting.
- Tansy - A strong-smelling plant with round yellow flowers. Good for curing coughs, but must only be eaten in small doses.
- Thyme - This herb can be eaten to calm anxiety and frayed nerves.
- Watermint - A leafy green plant found in streams or damp earth. Usually chewed into a pulp and then fed to a cat suffering bellyache.
- Wild Garlic - Rolling in a patch of wild garlic can help prevent infection, especially for dangerous wounds like rat bites.
- Yarrow - A flowering plant whose leaves can be made into a poultice and applied to wounds or scratches. Also eaten to cause vomiting in order to expel poison.
- Deathberries - Red berries that can be fatally poisonous to kits and elders. They are NOT a medicine. Only used to mercifully kill a cat who will die a slow, painful death with no possible cure.
- Snake Bane- Unknown mixture of herbs gifted to the medicine cats by Starclan, normal clan cats don't know the process or herbs/flowers used to make it. Medicine cats are sworn to keep it a secret.
Battle Moves - Back Kick - Explosive surprise move to catch opponent from behind. Judge opponent's distance from you carefully, then lash out with your back legs, taking all weight on your front paws.
- Belly Rake - A fight-stopper. Slice with unsheathed claws against the soft flesh of the opponent's belly. If you're pinned down, the belly rake quickly puts you back in control.
- Front Paw Blow - Frontal attack. Bring your front paw down hard on your opponent's head. Claws sheathed.
- Front Paw Strike/Forepaw Slash - Frontal attack. Slice downward with your front paw at the face or body of your opponent, claws unsheathed.
- Killing Bite - A death blow to the back of the neck. Quick and silent, and sometimes considered dishonorable. Used only as a last resort.
- Leap-and-Hold - Ideal for a small cat facing a larger opponent. Spring onto opponent's back and grip with unsheathed claws. Now you are beyond the range of the opponent's paws and in a good position to inflict severe body wounds. A group of apprentices can defeat a large and dangerous warrior in this way. Watch for the drop-and-roll counter move, and try to jump free before you get squashed.
- Partner Fighting - Warriors who have trained or fought together will often fall instinctively into a defensive position, each protecting each other's back while fending off an opponent on either side. Slashing, clawing, and leaping together, battle pairs can be a whirlwind of danger for attackers.
- Play Dead - Effective in a tight situation, such as when you are pinned. Stop struggling and go limp. When your opponent relaxes their grip, thinking you are defeated, push yourself up explosively. This will throw off an unwary opponent and put you in attacking position.
- Scruff Shake - Secure a strong teeth grip in the scruff of your opponent's neck, then shake violently until they are too rattled to fight back. Most effective against rats, who are small enough to throw. A strong throw will stun or kill them.
- Tail Yank - Grab your opponent's tail and yank it with such force your opponent is thrown off balance.
- Teeth Grip - Target your opponent's extremities - the legs, tail, scruff, or ears - and sink in your teeth and hold. This move is similar to the leap-and-hold, except your claws remain free to fight.
- Upright Lock - Final, crushing move on already weakened opponent. Rear up on back legs and bring weight down on opponent. If opponent does the same, wrestle and flip them under you. This makes you vulnerable to the belly rake, so it takes great strength and speed.
- Half-Turn Belly Rake - Turn onto your side, slip under the opponent's belly, rake it with your claws, then swiftly turn back onto all fours out from under your opponent.
- Badger Defense - Leap over opponent, turn on your back, and bite opponent's leg. Only used when fighting badgers.
- Duck and Twist - Simple defensive move. The cat ducks then twists around, rolling onto their back, and then springs to their paws.
- Jump and Pin - Complicated move used in enclosed spaces. Leap backwards, bounce off the wall. With precise accuracy, land on the opponent.

Birds: Sparrows- Common prey. Hummingbirds- Can be eaten, but very fast and not a lot of meat on them. Blackbirds- Common prey. Gulls- Not usually eaten. Rails- Common prey. Terns- Common prey. Swallows- Common prey. Kingfishers- Fast and agile prey, difficult to catch. Woodpeckers- Uncommon prey. Normally found high in trees. Owls- Nocturnal birds. Catching an adult is hard and dangerous at times, but some cats have managed to steal a few owlets from their nests. Be careful trying that though, the parent owls won't be happy. Geese- Big birds, not prey. Best to keep distance from them, get too close to them or their nests and they'll attack. Ducks- Medium birds, uncommon prey. They can attack like Geese though. Egrets- Large birds, rare prey and hard to take down. Herons- Large birds, rare prey and hard to take down. Swans- Big birds, uncommon prey. They can attack like Geese though.
Reptiles & Amphibians: Snakes(big and small)- smaller snakes make for good prey, all Venomclan cats know are trained to safely catch small snakes. Large snakes and poisonous snakes are to be avoided by unskilled apprentices and new warriors. Lizards- Common prey. Salamanders- Uncommon prey, sometimes found under rocks by the ponds and streams. Frogs- Slimy, common prey. Toads- Common prey. Alligators- Big predator, usually only found in Shadow Shore. If encountered, run far away. Turtles- Turtles are hunted and eaten, sometimes the medicine cats keep the shells to store their herbs and flowers. Watch out for Snapping Turtles, stay away from those. Tortoises- Same as turtles, though they have tough skin so it can be hard to actually kill one.
Others: Hermit Crabs- Small little crabs hidden up small shells, watch out for their pincers Dragonflies- Quick little bug, kits like to try and chase them. Beetles- Most beetles are harmless, but the ones with large pincers are to be avoided. Grasshoppers- Green or brown bugs that can hop and maybe even glide a bit. Kits love to use them for pouncing practice. Bees & Wasps- Buzzing little pests that live in hives high in the trees or in wood piles. Bee and Wasp stings are painful, some cats are allergic to bee stings and need to be treated for it quickly or it will be fatal. Snails- Slow moving and very slimy, most cats don't eat these unless as punishment or a dare. Eggs- Some cats like to steal and eat eggs from birds and reptiles. This can be dangerous since most nests are guarded by the parent or parents.

Shadowflame padded into camp, her fur soaked and sticking to her body. She had just returned from a small hunting patrol with Sandwhisker. She carried two water voles in her mouth and set them in the fresh kill pile. She tried shaking out her fur but with the constant rain fall it wouldn't really matter, she had an annoyed look on her face as she headed into the warriors den to get dry and groom herself.
Sandwhisker walked in a tail length behind Shadowflame, his head raised high with pride as he set a plump swallow on the fresh kill pile. He wasn't bothered by the rain, it actually helped to cool him down from the usual heat of their territory. Plus his short tan fur made it easier to deal with being wet. He sat by the prey pile and tried to decide on something to eat, drips of water falling off his long, white whiskers.
Cold Breeze had crossed the thunderpath into Venomclan territory, with the rain his scent was sure to be masked for a while. The white and black tom looked around, checking for any patrols nearby. Not hearing or seeing any other cats around he pressed on further into the territory. His main goal was to find himself a decent meal, but if he got to stir up some trouble with the clan cats well that would just be a bonus.

Name: Opalshine Gender: Female Appearance: A lithe, very thin she-cat that has no trouble slipping in and out of tight spaces. She is a tortoiseshell, with ginger fur heavily mottling her black fur. She has a narrow face, and she has large ears and green eyes. Personality: Certainly not lacking in any enthusiasm, Opalshine is, and always has been, obsessed with medicine. She has a deep pride in what she does and has a strong sense of duty to it. That being said, she is highly neurotic about medicine and tends to get nitpicky and irritable if things don't go the way she would like. She is rather sensitive and likes to win the affection of everyone around her, and often tries to socialize, but she tends to be awkward. Family: Open to family members Rank: Medicine cat Other: snake bane Username: videocassette
Name: Reedtail Gender: Male Appearance: A relatively handsome tom with an average build. He has bicolor markings, being white with reddish brown patches. Particularly notable is his reddish brown tail and back end, from which he gets his name. His eyes are a cheerful blue. Personality: A even-tempered tom with a flair for being in the spotlight. He tries to put on a dramatic and charming persona to make others laugh, and he loves to make sassy remarks. He is really quite heartfelt and is a good peacemaker when push comes to shove. He dotes upon she-cats who he is fond of. Family: Open to family members. Rank: Warrior Other: Snake bane Username: videocassette
Name: Snap-paw Gender: Female Appearance: A small calico she-cat covered in patches of ginger and black fur against her white coat. She is a munchkin cat, with short stubby legs, and she has hazel eyes. Personality: A tiny she-cat with a big attitude. She tends to be haughty and overstate her own abilities, and loves to dish out insults. Even so, with a little love she really just wants to be loved and valued. She tries to make others laugh, even if it turns out as an insult instead. She is prideful only to hide her insecurities. She has a lot to learn, but she has an immense loyalty to those who have the patience to teach her. History: She refuses to admit where she came from, but it's obvious she came from kittypet origins. She was discovered injured by the thunder path and was nursed back to health in Venomclan. She insisted on staying. Rank: Apprentice Other: Snake bane. Warrior name is Snapfire. Username: videocassette

Stormclaw had just left the warriors den, he looked up and saw it was still raining. Letting out a heavy sigh, the grumpy tom walked around camp looking for something to do. The blueish gray tom's fur was already starting to stick to him, he was used to it sure but that didn't change the fact it felt uncomfortable.
Hollowstar was settled in his nest in the leader's den, rolling and playing with a small bird skull from an earlier meal. Things seemed quiet so he figured he didn't need to go out yet, besides he was comfy in his nest. He glanced at the den entrance and saw some cats walking around, he huffed quietly to himself "Better them than me." he chuckled dryly.
Cold Breeze was out in the Venomclan territory, stalking a water vole out near Lily Ponds. Since it was raining he figured none of those clan cats would be able to smell him from afar, so he was free to hunt a little bit in peace. He dropped into a hunters crouch and unsheathed his claws, ready to pounce on the small creature.

Reedtail was resting in the warrior's den after going on the morning patrol earlier that day, and he didn't really want to go outside in the rain again. His fur was still damp. Even so, that didn't stop him from making a little fun out of it when he saw Shadowflame come in looking soaked and irritated. "Nice day for a walk, isn't it?" He quipped.
Opalshine sat under the lip of the medicine den, watching the warm drizzle come down. She needed to collect herbs soon, but she didn't want to let the warriors see her undignify herself by stepping out in the rain. She would sneak out to collect herbs when they were all drying off. She considered herself very fortunate to not need to hunt and patrol like her clanmates.
Snap-paw greeted the incoming warriors by bounding through the murky puddles on small legs, waving her tail in a hello while she boasted, "I don't mind the rain!" In a loud mew, "I think it feels GOOD!"

Shadowflame looked Reedtail and laughed, "Sure is, if you don't mind looking like a soaked rat!" She sat in her nest which wasn't far from Reedtail's, starting to groom and dry her fur. Her facial expression began to soften once she started to feel only damp instead of soaked. "I hope this rain end soon, at least for a little bit." She said between licks of her tortoiseshell fur.
