A B O U T - - Known for their tracking skills, the cats of MothClan are hushed and stealthy as they move among the shadows in their environment. Some say they are "silent but deadly," though that's only if you get caught in their web. It's hard to figure a MothClan feline out, especially when they are talented at concealing themselves, no matter if it is day or night.
Despite the harsh, freezing leaf-bares, the pleasantly warm greenleafs keep them moving. It may grow cold too quickly, but at least the heat is kept at bay. It's normally partly cloudy on a daily basis, but there are those rare days when the sun brightens the woods.
The cats of MothClan have darker coats, those coming in shades of brown and grey. A common sight of the clan is a tortoiseshell and patched tabbies. Solid black pelts are just as common. Rarely are light colored coats seen among the wave of the dusky pelts, but if they are spotted, they are assumed to be an off-spring of an outsider. With lithe builds, these felines are graceful and light on their paws. The dominant trait of a warrior in MothClan is to have thick, dark colored paw pads to sustain the chill of the mountains and freezing winds of the woods.
Not many members of the clan believe in StarClan as their past with their ancestors is rocky. The medicine cats are usually the ones to carry more belief than the others, but does not exclude others of following a religious path. Over the many moons without StarClan residing in their view, MothClan has led an oddly peaceful life with rare occurences here and there.
But of course, what would a clan be without a little havoc? T E R R I T O R Y - - Bordered by two mountain ranges known as Mare Tail's Mountains and Falcon's Peak, it is swallowed by a marble valley, MothClan's home is ladled by the Earth. It is to no surprise that its inhabitants are mesmerized by the tremendously vast territory.
Mare Tail's Mountains & Falcon's Peak | There's not much to tell about Mare Tail's Mountains and Falcon's Peak. They are apart of the surrounding mountain range to MothClan, leaving most of the land to what's below. With a low yet sharp cut, Mare Tail's Mountains is the strongest range around. Surprisingly, it's not all that hard to ascend. As for the summit, Falcon's Peak is quite narrow and steep which makes climbing difficult for felines. It's best to be avoided unless an emergency takes place. However, these landmarks hold ancestry value for the clan. Their stories aren't too prominent, but the elders love telling the kits about them.
Vervain Valley | The ladle to their home, Vervain Valley is full of color, including the foliage. Dark greens, bright blues, sandy yellows, and umber paths cover the territory from east to west. Mountains rest above the valley while Broad Grove and the Snakeroot River rest below. Besides the river is the Broken Bridge, Fallow Trail, and MothClan's camp. West of the camp is Moth Willow while the Bear Den is in the east.
Snakeroot River | Running from southeast to northwest, the Snakeroot River has several forks that pour out into small creeks or ponds. These are found throughout MothClan's territory, but the main channel is the most visited. The Snakeroot River has created a small gully which is the clan's camp, along with a tiny pond. This river has a stony bottom meaning that it's rough on paw pads and swimming in it isn't ideal. Rapids in this river aren't as strong as expected and it's normally calm.
Broad Grove | Broad Grove is very distinctive by its various trees, especially those that are western to the Bear Den. These trees consist of pines, spruces, cedars and hemlocks which leave the forest dreary and dim. Undergrowth stems from side to side, crawling throughout the land and into the deciduous part. Crossing the bridge, one will find aspen, yew, larch, walnut and hickory trees towering over the berry bushes and dark ferns. This side of Broad Grove isn't as dim, but it holds the same eerie feeling as usual. Most of the songbirds live here whereas rodents find the conifers more pleasing. Nevertheless, the grove is abundant with prey and likely predators too.
Broken Bridge | An old, rocky bridge, the Broken Bridge is made out of large jagged slats of rock. Time has worn it out as cracks are found throughout the supposed everlasting foundation. A hole rests near the middle of the bridge as old debris protrudes from the river below. Thankfully, this does not pollute the clan's main water source. It is noted that climbing on the Broken Bridge will either end in serious injuries or fatalty.
Bear Den | The talent of a bear is clear as day when one nears the Bear Den as one can see the intricate work they've done digging such a large, well hidden hole. A mound of soil and caked mud create the base of the den. Tree roots rise out of the soil, lifting up the ground and its surrounding plants. One is to assume that inside the bear's home is an entrance tunnel with two other dens dug out; one for their cubs and another for themself. Though the building of their home may be intriguing, felines are not allowed to approach the bear den without permission from the clan's leader.
Moth Willow | The Moth Willow may be rarely visited and barren, but somehow this weeping willow keeps growing back each year. Surrounding the one thriving tree are two others of the same kind yet all is left is their skeletons. Like bones, only the strong limbs of the trees remain and pest holes of all kinds have destroyed its body. Though this landmark is rarely visited, the medicine cats are said to have received prophecies and visions here. However, MothClan is not a clan of faith so it is a skeptical claim.
Fallow Trail | Dividing Broad Grove and camp from the Moth Willow, Fallow Trail is a well known footpath used by Twolegs though they only travel through in greenleaf. The regulars on this path are the fallow deer who call it their home. They usually spend their time nibbling on the various plants that are scattered across the trail, including flowers and bushes. Nevertheless, the deer are no harm to the clan but they can be a harm to the medicine cat's herb storage. It's best to leave them alone in case a buck gets irate and decides to attack.
The Camp | Buried into a dry gully, MothClan's camp is concealed by high walls and sparse trees. The floor escalates and rises at random intervals, most leading towards different levels of their dens. Dens are niches in the walls of the gully which protude out. The entrance to the camp is a small dip that brings the felines down to the clearing where a lone, sharp eroded rock rests. The leader of the clan usually makes announces here. On the east side of camp, there are three dens. Two for the warriors which are split into two, one for the seasoned members and the other for those that are at a stand still. Besides these two dens is the leader's den. Across camp are another set of dens, also done in threes. The first den belongs to the apprentices, the second being the nursery & the third for the elder's. Diagonally across from the nursery rests the medicine cat's den. With lots of space, this den has two parts to it; one for the herb storage & the medicine cat's nest and the other for ill / injured patients.

poppystar › accompanied by n/a He was sick, terribly sick; Poppystar knew something was wrong with him but refused to seek treatment for it. It seemed like an isolated incident at first, but waking up in a cold sweat and bleary eyed proved otherwise. He couldn't keep his lives lost a secret from the medicine cat anymore. It would tear him apart and that was the last thing he wanted.
He shook violently as he dragged himself out of his den, making his way to the medicine den. His stomach growled due to hunger, but he hardly had the strength to move let alone eat. Once he found himself at the medicine cat's den, he forced himself inside before quickly looking over his shoulder. He didn't want anyone to see this but the one cat who should have the most concern for it.
"Can we talk?" he meowed raspily, collapsing onto the den's floor. The air had been knocked out of his lungs as he began to wheeze, eyes leaking profusely. The black feline knew explaining his predicament would be grim but there was nothing else he could do. He knew nothing of herbs, nothing of diseases or illnesses; he couldn't take care of this problem on his own. Poppystar needed assistance, from someone who he could trust and promise to not let anyone know of his dilemma. Surely it was an easy thing to agree to, or so he thought in his mind. [ will work on thistle & fisher's asap ]

Wrencrest [ open ] Wrencrest gave a stubborn tuft of fur a fierce lick before huffing. 'Eat me,' she thought as her gaze flickered around the den. She twitched her whiskers, figuring it was probably time to leave the warrior den and see if there was any patrols to volunteer for. Her fur was sleek and she knew it would gleam when the sunshine hit it.
The cream feline pushed herself to her paws with a small sigh, stretching out as she moved out of the den. Her honey amber eyes flickered around camp. She raised an eyebrow at Poppystar's staggering form heading towards the medicine cat. "Hm," she mused before shaking her head, deciding it was better to mind her own business.
Mudpaw [ open ]
Mudpaw shifted on his haunches. The young tom was sitting outside of camp on top of the curve of the gully. His amber eyes watching the forest in the distance. He knew he should probably find Badgerleap and see if his mentor had any plans but it felt nice to sit out here in quiet.
"Wow," he whispered as he felt a swift, cold breeze come across the horizon. Mudpaw's fur fluffed up to protect him from the cold. He made a face and wrinkled his nose. He didn't remember it ever being this cold but then again, he didn't know much about the coming leafbare. 'Maybe this coldness is normal,' he mused and closed his eyes as another harsh wind cut through his fur and dryed out his eyes. 'Maybe I should go back into camp,' he reasoned with himself, being out in the open wasn't keeping him very cozy. It was either that option or go hide in a bush.

Thistlebrook - w/ Wrencrest . Thistlebrook was hardly brothered by the unusual cold air that swept through MothClan's camp. She was well equipped for the weather and she didn't mind a little cold every now and then. The tortoiseshell shook out her coat, dark tufts of fur poking out immediately. She sat up in her nest, her tail flicking across the cool rock. Her bright colored eyes noticed a familiar silhouette, that of Wrencrest's, leaving the den. At least someone else is awake, she thought, getting to her paws slowly. Her back ached from helping one of the apprentices out yesterday with a grueling task; organizing the fresh kill pile. Never again.
She carefully padded past the filled nests of those whose tails were sticking out and others whose were folded neatly. The senior warrior soon reached the den's opening where Wrencrest sat. "Everyone else asleep, Wrencrest?" she asked, likely too loud for as early as it was. But of course Thistlebrook didn't think of that.
Fisherpaw . open . Sleep was precious to Fisherpaw. He had always been a light sleeper, the kind that tossed and turned all night since he was a kit. Unfortunately, apprenticehood hadn't changed that. Dawn was the worst patrol to be on as far as he knew and dusk was more appropriate for him. He wasn't sure that his mentor agreed with him, but at the least he hoped his littermate would. Maybe his new siblings would too? That would be great! The dark brown tom twisted in his soft nest, grimacing when his tail touched the cold crevices of the floor. Who thought that building a camp in a gully was a good idea? he mused, grunting in frustration. He refused to open his eyes in fear that the sun would soon be beaming off of the den's wall. The young apprentice could only hope for dusk to arrive sooner, otherwise he was stuck with wandering around the territory with his mentor, maybe a warrior or two, and a denmate.

Wrencrest with Thistlebrook
She plopped down heavily outside of the warrior den, hitting the ground with a oof. Wrencrest stretched out her jaws in a wide yawn as she rested for a moment. She figured someone come along with a good idea of what to do today. She absently flickered her tail at a loose rock, Movement caught the corner of Wrencrest's gaze and the cream feline instinctively straightened her shoulders, as she watched Thistlebrook slip out of the warrior den behind her. "It appears so," she meowed with a small huff, "Look at us, we are overachievers," she couldn't help but joke.

FINALLY - despite watching Stranger Things in the background - GOT MY STARTERS UP S u n f l o w e r p a waccompanied by: Brightspots [ ʙᴜᴍʙʟᴇʙᴇᴇ » ] The morning sun had woken her up many days before, but today, the medicine cat apprentice was up earlier that she had expected to be. The sun hadn't risen over the gully yet. The ginger and white molly yawned as she sat outside the medicine cats den, cleaning her fur. She watched as Poppystar made his way past her, a small frown on her maw. She knew the leader wouldn't exactly confide in a medicine cat apprentice, but she would've at least expected a greeting.
Shrugging it off, Sunflowerpaw noticed Badgerleap stalking his way out of the warriors den and towards the apprentice den, most likely to search for Mudpaw. She twitched her whiskers and shrugged slightly, continuing on to clean her pelt. She was trying her hardest to steer clear of eavesdropping in on Poppystar and Doespring's conversation.
Sunflowerpaw carefully got up to her paws and trotted towards the camp exit, twitching her tail. She figured she'd get started by bringing some water drenched moss to Brightspots while she was up. The queen must be thirsty, and it would give the medicine cat apprentice something to do while she waited for her mentor to assess her on her herb knowledge.
The ginger and white tabby carefully treaded towards the river, a ball of moss in her jaw. She carefully dunked it into the water and purred. Brightspots will definitely enjoy this water, I'm sure! I can't wait for her kits to come, it's so exciting! Sunflowerpaw purred as she quickly carried the dripping mossball back to camp. She limped straight towards the nursery, peering inside. "Brightspots?" She mumbled around the moss, though it sounded more like "brispos" than anything. She carefully slipped over to the queen and set the watered moss in front of her. "I brought you some water. I was hoping you'd let me check your belly over and she give you a check up. Doespring is talking to Poppystar, so I wasn't exactly assigned this, but I just thought you'd appreciate the company!" Sunflowerpaw rambled. B a d g e r l e a paccompanied by: Mudpaw [ Blaze ♡ ] Badgerleap was not a morning cat. He was typically grumpy and annoyed when he got up early, even if it was for duties like dawn patrol. The black and white tom twitched his ear irritably before looking around carefully for Mudpaw. He eventually spotted the young apprentice and carefully made his way over. He twitched his tail and yawned. "Morning, kid. I hope you're up for some hunting today, because thats what I have planned for this morning so far. We can probably do battle practice later in the afternoon if you are up for it." He stated quickly, twitching his tail.
Typically, snappy Badgerleap would have a gruff tone and sound grumpy. But today, for some reason, as angry as usual. He wanted to have a successful training today with Mudpaw, and possibly develop one of those mentor-apprentice bonds he usually sees with other cats. Such as Doespring with Sunflowerpaw and so on.
[ sorry this isn't as long as Sunflower's starter was uwu ] H o n e y s h a d eaccompanied by: character [ tag ] The young molly had a rough night, unable to sleep. She had been tossing and turning all night, and couldn't even sleep. She had gotten up right before dawn broke through the gully, and made her way out of the camp and towards Snakeroot River. She was up for some hunting and possibly being alone so she could think. There she sat, sitting by the river, casting her shadow behind her so she could think. Her own gaze caught the small ripples, and she sighed under her breath. She carefully stood up and twitched her ears before turning and tasting the air.
The scent of finch filled her scent glands, and she purred, finally getting a taste into finding something to feed the clan with. Crouching down, she spotted the fluttering of the brown birds wings. Carefully stalking foreword, the molly twitched her tail behind her, grunting softly before launching herself at the bird. It startled it, and she almost missed it. But she managed to drag it down with her claws, killing it swiftly. I should've waited until it went back to pecking at the ground. She grunted, picking up the finch.
Carrying it back to camp, Honeyshade watched as the clouds rolled over head and dawn finally sprouted. The sun was visible, but it wasn't the warmest time of year. The brown tabby slipped into camp and looked for a particular tom, hoping to ask and share the catch she made. Sure, she was nervous, but she could hope. If he didn't show soon, she'd probably end up putting it in the freshkill pile and heading back out.

Thistlebrook accompanied by Wrencrest | outside the warriors den | [Blaze ♡]
Thistlebrook couldn't help but chuckle in amusement when Wrencrest straightened her shoulders once she slipped out of the warrior's den. The cream she-cat was definitely intuitive compared to herself and most warriors she knew over the moons. It was nice to see a younger feline have some instinct. "Oh, more than overachievers; we're perfect in the eyes of the clan," she quipped. "Did you sleep well, Wrencrest? Hopefully Raggedfinch wasn't snoring too loud. I can only imagine what it's like to sleep near a snorer."
The tortoiseshell didn't mind the younger or senior warriors. She was a heavy sleeper, but the cold made that different. It left her shivering in her nest and eyes open. It was only a matter of time until she woke up and had to follow her apprentice around or join a patrol anyways. Why bother fighting the expected?

{{ alright, I was going through the mentors & apprentice section of the clan; I feel like I messed up a lot of them, so I'm thinking I might redo them from scratch. You guys can either pick your mentor or apprentice, or I can assign them again. I don't want someone ending up with 3 apprentices, another with 1 and then someone without any-- it's not fair in my opinion.
Is everyone okay with this? }}

[ If blaze is okay with it, i'm fine with Badger being the mentor for Mudpaw still.
If Honeyshade has an apprentice, then you're welcome to reassign the apprentice she has to someone else c: But im pretty sure she has no apprentice. ]

[ last I checked, Honeyshade doesn't have an apprentice-- so we're good there! Doespring has Sunflowerpaw Badgerleap has Mudpaw (as of right now) Deputy contender 1 has Fisherpaw (as of beginning of rp, so late August) Sagewhisker will have Grasspaw.
If Rose finishes her characters, her deputy contender will have Fisherpaw. If she doesn't get around to it, I'll pawn him off on someone else. ]

Sagewhisker & Grasspaw (mentions Thistlebrook, Wrencrest, Honeyshade, Badgerleap and Mudpaw) The white and gray tabby tom stretched his back legs out behind him as he exited the warriors den. Sagewhisker was looking forward to starting the day and was in a relatively good mood. He shook his pelt, freeing any stray bits of bedding that remained, gave one last good yawn, and was off. He passed by Thistlebrook and Wrencrest, flicking his ears in acknowledgement without interrupting their conversation. He locked eyes with Honeyshade and waved his tail in greeting but carried on to the apprentice's den. Finally he nodded good morning to Badgerleap and Mudpaw before stopping just outside the entrance to the small cave. Sagewhisker was a cat of few words, especially in the morning. "Grasspaw," he called in, hoping not to disturb the other apprentices, "are you ready? The prey aren't going to catch themselves". As he waited he wondered where they might go. Maybe Vervain Valley, unless of course Cypresswhisker had something else in mind for them today. ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁(Hollowfeather would still probably be sleeping until more cats got up.)

[ finally done with editing things and making sure it's all correct. minus 1 thing that needs to be flopped around.
Updated mentors & apprentices! Doespring mentors Sunflowerpaw Sagewhisker mentors Grasspaw Thistlebrook mentors Mistpaw Wrencrest mentors Maskpaw [!!] Warrior H [Silvercreek's character] mentors Brackenpaw Badgerleap mentors Mudpaw Cypresswhisker mentors Fisherpaw
[!!] until Silvercreek has their characters up, Brackenpaw can tag along with any warrior he likes, that way he gets some time in.Please remind me if I forgot anyone's characters or if I screwed up. Also, I'm going to be traveling tomorrow by car for 10 hrs, so I'm hoping I'll have service along the way & be able to rp a bit on my trip. If I'm inactive, it's because I'm out of town. You're free to rp while I'm offline or inactive. Also also, I updated the allegiances. I added more warriors to balance things out. If we get to a point where we all want a 3rd/4th character, we'll work it out. Let me know if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas! ]]
