~Introduction~
TorrentClan is a clan that never permanently settles in one place. They are always on the move, and will do whatever it takes to find shelter at the end of the day. TorrentClan has traveled through forests, cities, blazing heat, and freezing snow. TorrentClan is strong, and their cats are extremely tough and adaptable. TorrentClan was named after the rivers, or more specifically, the river currents. A torrent is a strong and fast-moving stream of water or other liquid, which represents the clan's cats and their way of life very well.
TorrentClan has been travelling for moons. Many have perished along the way, but many have also survived. The only time TorrentClan really settles down is in dire situations, where there's no other option than to stay where they are. It is rumored by other cats that have come across this clan that the reason TorrentClan is always on the move is because they are running away from something that wishes to pounce on them as soon as they rest, so that it may destroy them once and for all. However, TorrentClan says they are constantly moving because they would never be satisfied in one place. Nobody knows which argument is true, but outsiders tend to believe in the former, while TorrentClan cats believe in the latter.
Nonetheless, TorrentClan is a clan despite their strange way of life, and now, you have the choice to step into it. Will you join them? Or will you sit and watch them go by?

~Joining Form~
Username: (not your screen name.) Cat Name: Age: Rank: Appearance: (You may use a picture to represent your cat, if you wish. This picture will be added alongside your character in the allegiances.) Personality: (To be seen's are allowed.) Skills: (Your character may have more skills than flaws, but don't overdo it.) Flaws: (Your character may have more flaws than skills.) Family: Mate/Crush: Kits: Backstory: Other:
[-X-]
~Rules~
1. Guests may be permitted to join if they provide a valid rp sample with their form.
2. Graphic descriptions of violence are allowed. If you are uncomfortable with the possibility of this, please do not join. Simple as that.
3. You are allowed to have your character involved with serious subjects (abusive relationships, your character has cancer, etc). Same as rule two, if you are uncomfortable with this, do not join.
4. Sexual activities are not permitted in rp. If your character is subject to something of the sort, such as r/pe, please do not roleplay it here. Take it to pm's if you wish to play it out as well as stating it happened.
5. Please skip birth scenes.
6. Your character is allowed to be in a same sex relationship, and they are allowed to have sexual orientations such as asexual, pansexual, etc. However, ****philic characters are not allowed, and if you make one or mention making one, I will block as well as report you.
7. I will not be responsible if you join the rp, and then are triggered/offended by graphic descriptions of violence, or something else. I have already given you a few warnings that these scenarios/events may happen in the rp.
8. TorrentClan has an extended vocabulary due to the fact they've traveled around a lot and have learned what many things are, so names like Glass-shard and Oceanclaw are allowed. However, I will tell you if your name goes beyond these limits. Also, names that start with Moon are allowed though. I made an exception for moon since TorrentClan has no direct way of contacting their "StarClan." Normally, I would not allow you to use this prefix/suffix based on the fact that in the books there are locations such as the Moonstone and Moonpool. I don't care if cats like Moonflower and Ambermoon exist.
9. Please try to stay as active as you can. If you are inactive for seven days (a week), then I'll have to administer a warning to you via pm, and I will put a symbol by your name in the allegiances. If you still fail to be active for at least two days afterwards, I will kick you from the rp. You may re-join later, but if I have to kick you again two more times, I will permanently ban you from the rp. However, if something comes up, please notify me of it, and I'll be glad to give you an exception. If you don't think you can keep up with the rp, either leave so you can take care of your life and responsibilities, or don't join the rp until you have time.
10. If you have any issues regarding people in the roleplay, the rules, or the roleplay itself, please contact me and I'll discuss it with you.
11. Most importantly, have fun. If for any reason you no longer wish to be in the roleplay, just say so.

While TorrentClan does not have a way of directly contacting StarClan, StarClan can still directly contact them when needed via dream, to deliver a prophecy, important advice, etc.
TorrentClan however does have a slightly altered warrior and medicine cat code. Their StarClan is different too. The altered codes and StarClan rules are listed below.
[-X-]
~Warrior Code~
Defend your Clan, even with your life. You may have friendships with cats from outside your clan, but your loyalty must remain to your Clan, as one day you may meet them in battle.
Queens and Kits are to eat first, while apprentices and warriors go second. The deputy and leader go last. Elders are to eat last, as they are the least use to the clan. (It sounds cruel, but look back to the information on elders in the allegiances.)
Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to StarClan for its life.
A kit must be at least six moons old to become an apprentice, and a kit must be at least 2 moons old to travel. If there are kits below that age, the clan may temporarily stop until they are of age.
Newly appointed warriors must keep a silent vigil after being appointed. They are to make sure nobody harms the clan while it is asleep.
A cat cannot be made deputy without having mentored at least one apprentice, and having traveled through at least one major area. (Major areas include entire cities, forests, etc.)
The deputy will become Clan leader when the leader dies, retires or is exiled.
After the death or retirement of the deputy, the new deputy must be chosen before the next day.
No warrior can neglect a kit in pain or danger, even if the kit is not from their clan.
The word of the Clan Leader is the warrior code.
An honorable warrior does not need to kill other cats to win his/her battles, unless they are outside the warrior code or if it is necessary for self-defense.
Don't kill cats from your own Clan.
[-X-]
~Medicine Cat Code~
A medicine cat may fall in love or take a mate.
A medicine cat may have kits under certain conditions. If the medicine cat is female, she must have an apprentice who has earned their full medicine cat name before she may have kits. If the medicine cat is male, he must not focus more on his kits than his duties.
A medicine cat may only retire when their apprentice is ready to take their place.
A medicine cat shares dreams with only StarClan.
A medicine cat may only discuss dreams, prophecies, etc. with their leader; dreams of an otherwise prophetic nature should not be disclosed to any outside parties, or any other cats in the Clan.
[-X-]
~StarClan~
TorrentClan's StarClan is different from the one in the books.
In TorrentClan's StarClan, there is no Dark Forest alternative. All cats are sent to StarClan, however, all cats have one distinctive feature to set them apart. Good cats have five-pronged star-shaped pupils, and they stay in the same form they died in. If they died a warrior, they stay a warrior in the afterlife. However, bad cats have four-pronged pupils, and when they die, they are reduced to the size and strength of kits.
Prophecies are different too. StarClan cats do not choose to send prophecies, and instead, they are forced to deliver prophecies when the stars themselves deem it necessary. When delivering a prophecy, the StarClan cat chosen's eyes will glow a solid colour according to their eye colour, and their star-shaped pupils will be absent. Their body will also be surrounded by a faint aura of their eye colour.

[-X-] ~Allegiances~ -TorrentClan- Leader - Open Deputy - Open Medicine Cat - Open Medicine Cat's Apprentice - Open +Warriors+ Coyotetooth - 20 Moons - Coyotetooth is a large brown-and-cream she-cat with long, matted fur. She has yellow-orange eyes that shine with enthusiasm. She has a large patch of cream colored fur from under her chin down to her stomach, as well as some other small cream markings. She has a large gap in her top lip from a hunting accident scar which extends over a mostly blind, shut left eye and all the way up to a ripped left ear. The scar exposes large snaggle tooth canines and her tongue, which is almost always sticking out slightly. - Ever the optimist, she loves to share encouragement and help others. She can be very stubborn, however, and has a tough time accepting a less positive outlook on any given situation even when it is the more realistic assessment. She is a very good communicator with a naturally persuasive nature, though not to an unrealistic extent. She is reluctant to open up about her personal life to anyone she doesn’t know very well. She struggles with a quiet, fluctuating existential dread underneath her otherwise joyful exterior. She does not prefer any one gender over another. - Played by rubygreen Dawnleap - 31 Moons - Dawnleap is a white, long-furred she-cat with cream-colored rings around her tail, legs, and muzzle, and golden eyes. She has a narrow, weasel-like face, large ears, a long, sweeping tail, and long legs. She has especially thick fur around her neck and tail and broad shoulders - Dawnleap can be a bit of a ditz at times, and is somewhat forgetful and always in a hurry. She often bites off more than she can chew and has trouble thinking ahead before doing something, but she is still a surprisingly skilled fighter with plenty of experience. She dislikes bragging and arrogance, and is very loyal to those she has befriended. She has trouble putting her clan before her friends at times. Despite being a bit of an airhead, and a little slow to react, she is quite physically strong, favoring brute force over agility. - Played by @nettles +Apprentices+ None at the moment +Queens and Kits+ None at the moment. +Elders+ None at the moment. By the way, here's a quick note. Due to the fact that TorrentClan travels around a lot, the clan doesn't really have many elders. Most elders normally leave the clan and then find a place to settle down since they've grown old and have a hard time getting places. -Outsiders- Rogue - 27 Moons - Rouge is a cream she-cat with chocolate classic tabby stripes and a white muzzle. She has narrow green eyes, a narrow face, large ears, thick, fluffy fur, and long legs. She usually decorates herself with shiny twoleg trinkets that she collects. - Rouge comes off as flirty and harmless, but can be rather manipulative. She rather greedy, and she is willing to fight for anything she deems as her own, even if it has no value. She collects shiny trinkets and flowers she likes, and guards them jealously. She can be hard to get along with, often making rude remarks and jabbing at insecurities, but she can play nice if she needs something. She prefers to travel in groups for her own protection. - Played by @nettles Outsiders includes rogues, loners, kittypets, and TorrentClan exiles. These cats may tag along with TorrentClan on their journeys for a while, and they may join TorrentClan altogether. If you make an outsider, please make sure that they don't only interact with the clan once and are then forgotten forever. Please keep them in the main rp. Also, I will permit cats that decide not to follow the clan, but then later try to track them down. It makes for an interesting storyline. Also, you may make one-time characters that appear once and then never appear again, however, when what they were made to do is done, tell me that you're done with the character and I will remove them from the main allegiances, and then put them in the past encountered cats section. -Past Encountered Cats- This section includes cats that TorrentClan has encountered in the past. This section also include cats who helped TorrentClan along their way, or did something else significant that involved TorrentClan. -StarClan- ☆Good Cats☆ ☆ Thornstar - Former leader of TorrentClan - Played by 86 ☆ ☆ Halfeye - Former deputy of TorrentClan - Formerly played by anawarrior ☆ ☆ Crystalcloud - Former medicine cat of TorrentClan - Formerly played by Rainblowz ☆ ☆ Rabbitfall - Former warrior of TorrentClan - Formerly played by ⚔️ToothShard⚔️ ☆ ☆ Thistlefrost - Former warrior of TorrentClan - Played by 86 ☆ ☆ Rosefeather - Former warrior of TorrentClan - Formerly played by Streamrose ☆ ☆ Flameclaw - Former warrior of TorrentClan - Formerly played by Streamrose ☆ ☆ Crowclaw - Former warrior of TorrentClan - Formerly played by Rainblowz ☆ ☆ Rainpaw - Former apprentice of TorrentClan - Formerly played by Scarletteblake ☆ ✦Bad Cats✦ ✦ Copperclaw - Former warrior of TorrentClan - Played by 86 ✦ [-X-]

-Current Events-
TorrentClan has begun moving for the day. They will be taking a rocky route that leads higher into the mountains.

TorrentClan is currently making their way through some rocky mountains. They have already made their way halfway across them, and are continuing to move. As of the rp starting, they will be waking up from sheltering in a small cave found the previous day, with a large, dead tree that has taken root on top of it that can be viewed from the outside.
The mountains themselves are mostly bare, with a few patches of grass and snow here and there. There are also a few coniferous trees scattered about. Predators that live on these mountains include mountain lions, foxes, eagles, hawks, and snakes. Nuetral animals include mule deer, and bighorn sheep. Prey animals include squirrels, chipmunks, and small birds.

[-X-] ~Extra Notes~ I would like to add coding to the rp page to make it look more appealing. If anyone would like to help me with that, please dm me. Also, this rp did not originate from here. It came from cattailsgame.proboards.com. [-x-]

Username: whenwolves (Same as my screen name) Cat Name: Coyotetooth Age: 20 moons Rank: Warrior (unless you’re in desperate need of a deputy?) Appearance: Coyotetooth is a large brown-and-cream she-cat with long, matted fur. She has yellow-orange eyes that shine with enthusiasm. She has a large patch of cream colored fur from under her chin down to her stomach, as well as some other small cream markings. She has a large gap in her top lip from a hunting accident scar which extends over a mostly blind, shut left eye and all the way up to a ripped left ear. The scar exposes large snaggle tooth canines and her tongue, which is almost always sticking out slightly. (Sorry for the long description! Here’s a VERY quick reference I drew up if it doesn’t get the point across. sta.sh/027tgs47gj3m ) Personality: Ever the optimist, she loves to share encouragement and help others. She can be very stubborn, however, and has a tough time accepting a less positive outlook on any given situation even when it is the more realistic assessment. She is a very good communicator with a naturally persuasive nature, though not to an unrealistic extent. She is reluctant to open up about her personal life to anyone she doesn’t know very well. She struggles with a quiet, fluctuating existential dread underneath her otherwise joyful exterior. She does not prefer any one gender over another (so hi ladies!) Skills: Pretty good hunter, all depth perception issues considered. Natural communicator, good at defusing arguments. Friendly, comforting presence, often an unwitting flirt. Flaws: Stubborn, stuck in her own line of thinking without considering more realistic points of view. Has a hard time taking a loss. Gets in her head about death and morality at inopportune moments during fights, making her less useful on the battlefield than she could be. Too hard on herself when she messes up, too forgiving when others do. Family: Mother, father, and sister (Rissa, Lark, and Bee) (loners, not in clan). Mate/Crush: N/A (yet!) Kits: N/A Backstory: Coming from a small but very loving family of stray cats, Coyotetooth had set out to find a clan for a sense of belonging at a fairly young age. By the time she left, her parents had taught her most of what she needed to know to survive, but she was still a bit rusty in the self-defense department. She was out hunting for small prey when she got in a fight with a raccoon that left her disfigured and mostly blind in one eye. Completely unequipped to deal with this sort of injury, she wandered the forest for a couple of days crying for help until TorrentClan passed by. They graciously patched her up, she followed along when they kept moving, and the rest is history! Other: Nothing I can think of! Thank you for taking the time to read this, sorry it’s unbelievably long!

Accepted! Also I don't mind the long form.
Also, extra note, I'm just gonna remove everyone's characters, including my own. It gives us a fresh start, and also, I didn't really like my old characters too much. However, I will not be removing them completley. I will be adding them to a StarClan part of the allegiances, since the people from the old forum still deserve a mention here, since they're the people who helped kick off the rp at first.

(By "guests" do you mean people who want to join who weren't in the original roleplay on the other forum? I'm fairly interested, but I do have some reading comprehension issues and I can't quite figure the first rule out. Hope I'm not being a bother!)

Rouge was their only a kit, and she lived the life of a kittypet for 4 moons, before the stories her father told ignited enough curiosity that she left home without telling her family. A loner named Gloss took her in, essentially saving her life and teaching her how to survive on her own. She lived with Gloss until she was 13 moons, at which point Gloss went out hunting and never returned.
