Rules
1. What I personally think is the most important rule, is following all of the rules that apply anywhere on this website. The last thing that I want is this clan to be deleted just because of comments that don’t follow this website’s rules.
2. Please be as active as you can once you join this RP. I understand that life gets in the way, but please notify me if you’re going to be gone for more than one week. You’ll get a warning if you have not RPed in one week, and your characters will be deleted if you do not return in two weeks. I do not count dropping in and posting once or twice a week as enough.
3.This is a semi-literate RP. I understand if the previous post was a bit difficult to post a good response to, but please try your best. Please no one-liners, and I expect reasonable grammar. Now, I do understand that we all make mistakes, as I do.
4. Nothing along the lines of godmodding, spotlighting, powerplaying, Gary Stues or Mary Sues are allowed.
5. Please realistic in your cat designs. If you give me a character with purple fur and rainbow eyes, it will be denied.
6. No spamming or advertising in my clan is allowed.
7. Please time-skip any moments including mating or kitting. I'll allow gore, just don't go over the top.
8. I allow LGBTQ+ in my clan, so if you think you'll be upset by that please think carefully when you join my clan.
9. Be respectful to the other members of this clan. I will not tolerate any fighting between the members of this clan.
10. Please keep the gender count as balanced as you can. Please don't make 5 She-Cats and 1 Tom, but more like 3 She-cats and 2 Toms.
11. No starting plots unless I've been informed about the plot.
12. Have fun!

Introduction You run through the forest, the fox near. You had disturbed its sleep unknowingly, and it was chasing you for doing so. Behind it, you could scent another. Smaller, perhaps, but still big enough to rip you to shreds. Your energy was decreasing, exhaustion overtaking you. Finally, you found a small cave. You darted for it, anxious for safety. You poked your head out of the entrance, making sure nothing was near. Finally, you fall asleep.
You awake to growling and hissing, and find that the fox was preparing to claw you. Quickly, you dodge out of the way. Suddenly, a light gray she-cat lunges at the fox, attacking it from behind. Not knowing what to do, the fox stumbled and fell. The she-cat quickly bit its neck, sinking her teeth in, leaving it to writhe on the ground. "Who are you?" you asked, shrinking back in terror.
"Relax, my name is Moondapple," the she-cat meowed. You stay silent. "Have you been spending your life alone?" You nod slowly.
"Y-yes, I have." Moondapple nodded after you spoke.
"Would you like to join EchoClan? I'm the deputy, and I'm sure our leader will let you in." You stay frozen, unsure what to do. "Well?" she asked.
Do you accept?

Territory
EchoClan's territory consists of large amount of trees, though Oaks dominate the others. Most of the land has thick undergrowth, but quite a few places have open ground.
The Crystal Pool- This is where the cats of EchoClan make their connection to StarClan. Resting underneath the Moon Hill in a small cave, the pool gets it's name from the crystals that have formed on the sides of the cave over the years.
The Echoing Pass- This place is a key part of the clan, though it's normally not spoken of. It's only known entrance being at the base of the Mossy Oak, the system of caves can be dangerous if you lose your path. If you listen carefully within the stone walls of the cave, the sound of whispers and calls from a cat's ancestors in StarClan can be heard.
The Mossy Oak- This tree is a immense oak, with large limbs that rest their weight against the ground. True to it's name, the tree has moss growing down the grooved bark of the ancient oak. It's considered sacred, and though hunting is rich here, it's frowned upon to climb through the limbs. The Mossy Oak is only a small trip away from the camp, and is often used as a place to relax.
Moon Hill- Often used by apprentices and young warriors to test their stamina as they run across the grassy hill, this is one of the only places that gives a clear view of the territory. The sides of the hill have a step incline, but the top is rather flat. It's been rumored that cat's used to live in the bushes on the top of the hill. The Crystal Pool is inside of the Moon Hill, which gives it another sense of importance.
Camp
EchoClan's camp is rather well hidden, with only two entrances. One is a small break in the bushes in the back of the camp, while the other is a small badger den that has an opening leading outside of the camp. Multiple Oak trees loom over the camp, offering good places to climb.
Elders' Den- Is in a hollowed fallen tree near the back of the camp, and keeps heat in quite well. Though it's on the smaller side, it offers good protection for the oldest members of EchoClan.
Nursery- Is by the far the safest place in the camp, though flooding could lead to disaster in this den. The Nursery is similar to the Medicine cat's den, which means it's a shallow cave on the right side of the nearly circular camp. It has low ceilings, but it has enough light flooding through the entrance for comfort. It's also can be easily guarded.
Medicine Cat Den- Near the Nursery of the right side of the camp, it's also a shallow cave underneath the camp. It's not very large, but it still has room for a number of herbs and a few patients, along with the two Medicine Cats of EchoClan. Along one wall of the cave, their is shallow dips on the ground, where herbs are stored.
Apprentices' Den- Near the left side of the camp, a collection of ferns form the Apprentice's den. It doesn't offer a lot of protection against the elements, but it's still appreciated by most of the Apprentices.
There's an Oak tree that leans over both the Apprentice Den and the Warrior Den, and occasionally cats of both ranks climb in these trees as a den in favorable weather.
Warriors' Den- Offering good protection, a group of bushes forms the Warrior's Den. Senior Warrior's and the Deputy always sleep towards the center, for extra warmth.
Leader's Den- Towards the center of the camp, The Great Boulder rests. Underneath is a cave of sorts, but this one has been formed by claws of many cats over many moons. The top of this boulder is used by the Clan leader and Deputy, for the many announcements and ceremonies they present.

History
The cats of EchoClan have been residents of their territory for as long as anyone can remember, though the members of StarClan know the truth.
As told from the ranks of StarClan, the cats of EchoClan used to be a group of Loners traveling place to place, struggling to face their problems. They had very little meat on their bones, often going to their nests without prey. Though they struggled, it wasn't until Twolegs found them that they were in complete disrepair. They were split in two groups, each running away frantically in attempt to avoid the Twolegs. A few members of the group of loners were caught, while the one band of cats were separated into two as they escaped the Twolegs. These two groups were unable to find each other again, and slowly developed into their own.
Forgetting of the other group that used to stand by them, they developed their own set of rules and leaders. It's said that these two groups did find each other once, 62 moons later, and the clashed. One of the groups was said to be slain, while the other formed into EchoClan.

The Cats
Joining Page here
Page for Photos of our cats
Leader
Miststar||She-cat||Clan Leader||39 moons||First thing that you’ll notice other than Miststar’s skinny frame and extremely puffy tail, is her striking amber eyes. Covering her small frame, is a coat of smokey gray fur that is about a medium length. Her coat normally thins out during Greenleaf, and thickens during Leafbare.||You never truly know when it comes to Miststar's personality. From day to day it changes wildly, though the base of Miststar is a rather kindhearted cat. She is one to worry quite a lot, trying to make sure that everything in her clan is right. She also worries that she'll make a fatal mistake that leads to the death of her clan, and with this she is a bit timid that lets cats push her around almost to often.||Want’s to find a mate, but is worried that a tom will only pretend to like her because of her rank. ||N/A||Miststar is a clanborn cat, and had always dreamed of being leader as a young cat. She made her fantasies happen, with lots of hard work and determination. || Miststar has lost two of her nine lives.|| Echo
Deputy (After the RP has progressed, I will choose a Deputy. You have to be an active RPer to get this rank.)
Medicine Cats
Twistedpath|| She cat|| Medicine cat|| 26 moons|| Twistedpath is about the size of a young apprentice, with the fur of one as well. She has long, fluffy black fur, and wide, owl like golden eyes. The only thing that breaks the illusion of her being an apprentice is a long scar that cuts right through her fluffy black fur, this scar goes from her back left hip down to her paw, rendering it completely useless. || Don't let her sweet looking appearance fool you, this medicine cat is a complete fireball. She is unsympathetic towards those who complain who aren't actually in pain, and isn't gentle if a warrior comes in wailing because of a thorn. That being said, she does have the medicine cats nature when she sees someone in true pain. Despite her rough exterior, she is a pretty big softie and a complete teddy bear, but she doesn't really show that to her.||N/A|| Open!|| Twistedpath was originally a warriors apprentice with the name of Batpaw. She was born and raised in Echoclan, and one day during her apprenticeship she was on a hunting assessment when she and a fellow apprentice, Frostpaw, where attacked by a fox, leaving Frostpaw dead and Batpaw incredibly injured. She was later renamed Twistedpaw, after how her leg looks twisted after the attack|| N/A || Sweetclover1
Mallowbloom || Male || Warrior || 50 moons || Mallowbloom is a thin tom, but frequently is mistaken as fat, because his fur is so thick. His mother was half-persian, after all. Underneath his fluffy coat, he has lackluster muscles from staying cooped up in the medicine den for half of his time. He's a poor hunter and a dreadful fighter, but at least he can run and gather herbs! His pelt is primarily a medium gray color, with mackerel tabby stripes. He has a flat face, and two bright yellow-green eyes. His ears are small and round, with a few scars marking them. || Mallowbloom takes his job very, very seriously. Usually, he gets so absorbed into sorting herbs or picking thorns out of warriors that he pretty much ignores everyone else. So, a word to describe him would be spacey. Even if he's have a conversation with someone, he might begin to drift off into his own thoughts and completely shut out his companion. Although, when he is paying attention, he is shown to be very wise and kind. He is eager to offer advice and support to those who seek it, so long he's not busy. || n/a || n/a || Born & raised in EchoClan. || Mallowbloom is homosexual. || joshua william dun
Medicine Cat Apprentices (This rank is closed for right now.)
Pansypaw|| Female|| Medicine cat apprentice|| 11 moons|| A thin she-cat with dark gray eyes. She is tiny and is often made fun of because of her size. She is a white tortoiseshell, so she often blends in with other environments. She has a pink nose, dark eyes, and a bushy tail.||Saying that she is anxious is an understatement. If you try to surprise her she'll squeak like a mouse and try to run. She is also sweet and motherly to kits and others.She is so used to wounds that she isn't afraid of them anymore. ||She can't have a mate!||She was fostered by Willowheart, a sweet queen who has passed away.|| She was sent a sign from Starclan as a kit, and she told the medicine cat. She then was assigned as a medicine cat apprentice.|| She is homosexual. || Pansyblossom. Warriors Lostsong||She-cat||Warrior||26 moons|| Lostsong has a very unique, creamy coat that is found quite pretty by some. Her coat mostly consists of a creamy off-white color, while she has many hints of chocolate brown throughout her fur. Her legs and tail is a chocolate brown, having a mask of the same color on his face that extends to her ears. Unlike most cats of her coloration, Lostsong has long downy fur, along with crystal blue eyes.||Lostsong is one to be shy and absolutely self-conscious, especially if you’re a stranger to her. Though, she does have a few cats that she’ll find herself warming up to. Being that she was abandoned by her mother, who she loved and trusted, she has a difficult time trusting any other cat a great deal. Though it’s very true that Lostsong is a very shy and reserved cat, she may become playful and overall a great tempered cat if she somehow gains your trust. ||Currently has no mate or crush, but is open to developing romance.|| No known kin||Lostsong was abandoned by her mother at a very young age, which turned her life upside down. Luckily she was found by EchoClan, and has since lived in their ranks.||Bisexual||Echo
Oakwind||Tom|| Warrior|| 30 moons||Being that Oakwind is a Bengal, he stands quite next to his clanmates. The base of his coat is a light shade of brown, while he has slightly uniform splotches of darker brown dotting his coat. All of these splashes of dark brown have a ring of black surrounding. Along with his circles of brown, Oakwind has stripes of black on his tail, legs, and faintly on his face. He also has golden, piercing eyes. ||Oakwind is fairly intelligent and friendly to his clanmates, and is rather playful on a day to day biases. But like all other cats, he has his times when he needs to be away from cat’s around him. Unlike most, Oakwind enjoys being in water, and doing anything to do with water. Because of his large frame, he is a very skilled fighter, but he often deems his fights unfair because of his obvious advantage. You would expect him to rather skilled at catching prey on solid ground, but because of his large paws he finds catching his prey often difficult.||Open to mate/crush||No known kin||Oakwind is clanborn, but he doesn’t always think he’s exactly one of the Clan.|| Echo
Poisonfox || Male || Warrior || 26 moons || A mostly black tabby, has a white spot of fur that covers his under belly. He has ocean-blue eyes and he has no injuries. || Poisonfox had a pretty kit-hood he had green cough while young so he spent all of his time in the medicine den. Because of this he became very weak and scared of pretty much everything. When he was an apprentice he was incapable of hunting and fighting, but after a fight with a fox that he won. he changed and he became a warrior that is known for being scary, other clans say he has no emotion. However for his friends he is very kind and compassionate. || No mate / Crush || Kin will be added later || As a kit he was often sick so he spent most of his time in the medicine den. Because of this he became weak and afraid. He got his name when the medicine cat caught him hoarding deathberries in his nest. He claimed that they make him feel powerful. Of course the whole clan was horrified and it delayed his apprenticeship for a few moons. While he was an apprentice he was hard working but he often failed, it took him more than a moon to catch his first fresh-kill. One day he noticed a fox den, he didn't tell anyone because he wanted to be he one to kill the fox. For about a moon he stalked it trying to find the perfect moment. Eventually he decided to get a rabbit and put death berries into it. The fox are the food and was very weakened enough for him to kill the fox earning him the name Poisonfox. || Poisonpaw Apprentice: Furzepaw
Pebbleskip|| Male|| Warrior|| 31 moons|| Pebbleskip is a grey cat mottled with white spotting, with a white chest. He has green eyes. His fur is long and thick and kept well-groomed. || (Hard Worker, Open-Minded) Pebbleskip doesn't like to judge others. It reminds him too much of his own kithood, where he felt he was scrutinized over everything he ever did. Also a takeaway from his upbringing, he works hard and tries to do his best, even if his best is subpar. (Flirty, Competitive) Pebbleskip is a very competitive cat, and though he's never the first to suggest a race or a fight(as he's pretty certain he'll lose), when he does get involved in something along those lines, he will never give it up. Flirting is another competition he's undertaken. It provides him with a goal(wrapping everyone around his tail), and gives him the constant validation he needs. (Inferiority Complex, Pessimistic, Fake) Despite his relatively lighthearted demeanor, Pebbleskip is actually a fairly dreary and pessimistic cat. There's not a lot he truly enjoys. And he requires a lot of attention and validation from those in authority. He craves it, he needs it. He hides this behind layers of fakeness though. He likes being independent. || Everyone || Dewfur(brother, deceased) || Pebbleskip was never the strongest or fastest kit or apprentice. He always wound up in second place. Especially when going against his brother, Dewfur. More like DOOFur. He was so proud of that nickname when he can up with it. When they were apprentices, Pebblepaw perceived Dewpaw's success and the praise he received as favoritism, and Pebblepaw did his best to keep up, but failed at every turn. Dewpaw even became a warrior before him, despite them being the same age. So yeah. Pebbleskip was more than a little salty about that. Overshadowed by his brother at every turn, Pebbleskip started drawing into himself, but put on a fake-confident facade and started flirting with other cats in order to receive the approval he so craved. Moons later, Dewfur became deputy, and Pebbleskip grew jealous. He drew away from his brother and rarely talked to him any more. Then Dewfur became sick with greencough, and slowly wasted away. Pebbleskip never reconciled with Dewfur before he died, and feels a little guilty. But he tries not to think about that. || ANGSTANGSTANGSTANGST || Sherk Apprentice: Sandpaw
Hazelclaw || Female || Warrior || 28 moons || Hazelclaw is a petite young thing, the runt of her litter. She looks as if a light gust of wind would send her blowing away like a leaf! She's more of a glass cannon, if you would. Thanks to her shorter size and lithe frame, she is quite speedy and is able to deliver harsh, accurate blows if the opponent isn't prepared. But she's glass—if she takes a hit, she's done. She has short, light brown tabby fur, with three white paws, a white chest, and a white tail tip. Her eyes are honey yellow. Scars mark her face. || If you don't know Hazeltail, you'll probably think she's rude. She doesn't really think before she speaks, like, ever, and often accidentally offends others with her bluntness. But she does mean well! Unless she really hates the cat, she'll always apologize if she says the wrong thing. She behaves in a chipper manner, keeping smiles on her face even when all hell breaks loose. Unless you make an unkind comment towards her friends—then she'll crush you. Cliché? Yes, probably. || n/a, open || n/a || Born & raised in EchoClan. || Hazelclaw is bisexual. || joshua william dun
Sageheart || Female || Warrior || 24 moons || Sageheart is a black she-cat with large, pale-ish orange eyes. She's a fairly lanky cat, and in no way is she beautiful. She is skinny with an oddly long tail. She also has rather big ears, a very long neck, and a long snout. She has a small tick in one of her ears. Her coat is short and wiry, and it also has several specks of white in it. She has rather large paws compared to the rest of her body. Despite her thinness, she doesn't lack muscle very much at all. It's often noted that she looks exactly like her mother. || Sageheart is an idealistic pacifist whose only goal in life is to have kits. She dislikes killing and prefers to allow every cat to survive. She wishes that she could help cat live- like a medicine cat. She has no interest in becoming a medicine cat, however. She normally spends her days helping out in the nursery, medicine den, or elders' den. Despite this kindness, Sageheart is rather self-oriented at times. Sageheart doesn't usually share her prey, unless with a close friend or she knows she can't eat all of it. If Sageheart has something to do, she might try to manipulate anyone that bothers her into leaving her alone. If one asks her to do something that would cause her to be uncomfortable, she may not do it. Or she'll procrastinate on it. Her dislike of killing comes from her anxiety. She has a fear of death, a strong one. She doesn't want to die, and she doesn't want anyone else to either. In general, she's a very curious cat. She's always questioning, always doubting. She may go out of her way to figure something out. Almost everything she desires is a question that could be answered. The one thing she does desire is kits. She wants kits. She's never felt attraction to any other cat, but there has been cats who crushed on her. She worries that she may not ever have kits. I'd like to note(for all who are interested) that is is intended to be an ENFP. There's probably more I could say, but I prefer not to. || Nope || Her half-brother is Juniperfang. || She was born in EchoClan and raised in EchoClan. Her mother had more than one litter, with more than one tom. Sageheart was the last born of her kits. || She's asexual, aromantic. I know there's a term for someone who wants attraction, but they don't experience it. Well, that's her. || Juniper Bush (Juniper Bush) Apprentice: Acornpaw
Hummingflight|| Male|| Warrior|| 41 moons|| He is not a big cat but by no means is he a small cat. He has large eyes as if designed to survey and sweep broadly followed closely by his ears which are full of fluff. His fur is a bright white which goes with his blue eyes.|| A fairly bouncy character. Usually jolly with plenty of energy. He is relaxed and loves to let kits be kits and go off, sometimes even encouraging it. He might be grumpy if he doesn't sleep.||Nope|| None|| Clan born and raised. He remained in the background, simply doing what needed to be done.|| Soft
Juniperfang || Male || Warrior || 48 moons || Juniperfang is a gray ticked tabby tom with hazel eyes. He's a smaller cat that has his half-sister's thinness. He has smaller paws and a long tail. His ears are large, but his face isn't as pointy. His eyes aren't very large either. His fur is very short and silky, but only when well-groomed. He isn't very muscular, despite him thinking he is. Juniperfang is more of a skeleton wrapped in a pelt. || Juniperfang is normally rude, insensitive, and very grounded. He doesn't have much consideration for other's feelings, but he does understand them. He likes to tease others for their traits, and, because he's an arrogant snot, he likes to extol his own virtues(or make things up). He's not very patient at all too. Juniperfang is very practical and resourceful as well. He can easily come up to a solution to a problem, but it's a challenge for him to answer things that seem off-the-wall. He does not daydream very often. Why is Juniperfang so mean? He wants to look like this cold, brash, brave cat to others. For those interested, he is intended to be an ESTP. || He'll probably get one later on. || Sageheart is his half-sister. || He doesn't have much going for him in the past. To put it as a basis, he was part of his mother's first litter. He was born and raised in EchoClan. || He's very straight and very cis. You can also consider him for deputy, though he probably isn't a very good choice. || Juniper Bush (Juniper Bush )
Applewhisper|| She-cat|| Warrior|| 13 moons|| Applewhisper has a short, light ginger pelt. She has a scar across her right eye, from a rogue, and she has difficulty seeing with it at times. Her eyes are a gold hue. She has long legs and is a bit more lean than some of the more broad-shouldered warriors.|| Applewhisper is generally a kind and friendly feline. She would befriend any cat, no matter what they've done wrong. Applewhisper is slightly, well, very, gullible. She can be secretive and quiet, hence her suffix.||N/A|| I guess someone can make her a sibling if they want|| Applewhisper, as a kit, was a strict rule follower. She seriously never snuck out of camp once, but it was almost difficult to believe her when her littermates had twigs and leaves in their fur, and Applekit never left. When apprenticed, Applepaw was slightly more rebellious, and did sneak past the border into Twolegplace, and did build a short friendship with a kittypet. She was just recently made a warrior|| Possible for deputy? || bluemist
Blazedash|| Female|| Warrior|| 26 moons|| Blazedash is almost completely white and has brown spots all over. Her tail is black at the end. Her eyes are a combination of green and brown. She, unlike Turtlepaw, has a very thick coat. || Blazedash is very intense and has a fiery personality. She almost ignites with anger whenever something bad happens and has a very hard time calming down. She cares a lot for Turtlepaw and may be obsessive over Turtlepaw's sucess a lot. Like, all the time.||None|| Turtlepaw|| After Turtlepaw was taken from her, pure guilt about not doing anything about it sent her on a quest to find Turtlepaw, and resulted in her entering Echoclan.|| None || TheRealKeldeo
Stormfrost || Tom || Warrior || 21 moons || He is a broad-shouldered, grey cat with a dark grey head, legs, and tail-tip with long fur. He has a spot of white in an upside triangle-like shape, and he has stormy grey eyes that look almost white. || He is a stand-offish kind of cat. He doesn’t really enjoy conversing with other cats, but he can stand it if it is needed. He has a guard around his heart that makes it hard for any cat to see him emote much kindness or vent his problems and some cats even say that his heart is frosty. He keeps his problems and emotions bottled up inside of him and doesn’t speak much if at all about them to any cat. Since he doesn’t converse much, he is focused on any task he does. He doesn’t give up or quit until a higher ranking cat says he’s done, or he thinks he’s done. || No mate or crush. || His siblings had died at birth, and his parents had died a few moons after, so he’s the only living cat of his family. || He was born and raised in Echo Clan. || ツ5 รєς๏ภ๔ร ๏Ŧ รย๓๓єгツ
Nightshadow || She-cat || Warrior || 16 moons || She is a small, lithe, black cat with a white spot on her chest and crystal blue eyes. || She is a shy she-cat, always hesitant about starting up conversations with cats, which may be caused by her being born outside of the Clan. She is very unsure of herself and lacks confidence as she is still quite a new warrior. She is always nervous about going out on patrol with other, more experienced cats. She is very kind and likes to keep the kits busy when she isn’t going on patrol or doing something for the Clan. She is very trusting, maybe too trusting according to some cats. She often goes out on her own to hunt or just go for a walk on her own, away from the bustle of camp. She tends to like solidarity over starting conversations, so she’s often found on the edge of camp in the shadows. || No mate or crush. || Her family is unknown to her. || She was born to outsiders of the Clan, but when she was old enough to be left alone, her parents left her, and she managed to find Echo Clan before she could die of starvation. || ツ5 รєς๏ภ๔ร ๏Ŧ รย๓๓єгツ
Foxscar|| Tom|| Warrior|| 27 moons|| Foxscar is a large, intimidating reddish-brown tom with white paws and a white-tipped bushy tail, making him look similar to his namesake. Due to a dog attack, he is missing his left eye, and the left half of his face is heavily scarred. His right eye is yellow.|| Foxscar is short-tempered and easily annoyed, and it doesn't take much provocation to cause him to lash out at others. While he can come off just as mean as he looks, around the cats that he trusts he is actually genuinely friendly and fiercely loyal albeit sarcastic. He is also very protective of his adopted younger sister, Flashpaw. While they are not related by blood, Foxscar found her abandoned as a kit and they quickly developed a brother-sister dynamic. || Open|| Adopted older brother of Flashpaw|| Ex-rogue.|| glistenfang
Silverstep||Female||Warrior||22 moons||She's a silver, dainty cat, with a black speckled back. Her ears are black, and spots dot her forehead. Her paws and underbelly are a white, and her left ear has a single nick. Her eyes are a dazzeling green.||She's very kind and honest, but can be a little of a push over. Often, she overworks herself because she just can't say no- which some cats find annoying and irritating, while others think it's cute. She moves silently and can often scare othes with her ability to seemingly not be heard at all. She doesn't get sick as often as other cats, but she does get white cough rather easily if it's spreading around the camp.||She's open.||Her brother is Frostpaw.||Past rogue, and she took Frostpaw under her wing.||Other|| Karkitty21
Peachblossom|| Female|| Warrior|| 27 Moons||Peachblossom is equipped by light golden cream fur and dark golden tabby marks, although her tabby markes are more golden orange and more prominent on her face, ear tips, and tail tip. They are much fainter on her legs and body, and medium length fur with a sleek feather like tail. Under her thick fur are lean, long limbs with well muscled legs. She has clear crystal blue eyes and pointed cheek fur. She has a posture of elegance and sweetness, which isn't too far from her personality. Peachblossom is graceful with a elegant sleek body which is of average size. She has small paws which make her swift of her feet and a sassy look to her face. || Peachblossom is elegant in posture and personality, she also has a different kind of sweetness almost a shy-sweet but she is still confident as very and loves a challenge, she is very teasing and sassy. You could say she is flirt in a way, Peachblossom is very mysterious and enchanting in that way. She has an effect of wanting to no more, not letting anyone in too close.||Crush on Oakwind|| Goldendawn, Silverdust, Cinnamonflame, Newtpaw, and Whisperkit || Her mother died after giving birth to Newtpaw, a few months ago; Whisperkit died a few moons after her birth, right before she was going to become an apprentice. father was killed by a monster a couple days after her warrior ceremony.|| Up for deputy.|| ~Spiriteddeacy~
Pigeonflight || Female || Warrior || 27 moons || Pigeon is a very small pure black she-cat with a bob tail. She's got dark amber, almost brown eyes. || Pigeon is a bit of a ditz, and has an extremely short attention span. She doesn't understand anything. How does everything work what is that what. What. She tends to dive into things headfirst even though she doesn't understand them. She's all about action, action, action! She's loud and commanding and confident, and most things she says are at a shout. Subtly is not this cat's strong suit. || None || None|| Born+raised in Echoclan || Other || Sherk
Treepad || Tom || Warrior || 30 moons || This tom is certainly unique in terms of appearance. The majority of his small, fluffy body is covered in a pale, creamy off-white color. His face and ears are a rusty brown with darker stripes slashing at his face and ears asymmetrically. He has one large rusty brown splotch on his back that is also covered in ragged stripes. His tail is fluffy and is not long enough to make him an adequate climber, thus his fear of heights. He often neglects the cleaning of his pelt, so his fur gets messy, tangled and dirty more often than not. He has tough black paw pads and a large, wide black nose. His eyes are pulled up at the corners and are a small almond shape and they are a dull blue with faint grey flecks in them. He is slender and smaller than is average. He has a long face that makes him appear oriental-like || Despite his slightly awkward appearance, this tom is a charmer to she-cats and toms alike. Because of this behavior, it makes his strange look seem attractive in a very special way. When he isn't charming other cats, he is stoic and tough and mysterious. ||Open || He has 3 littermates from another Clan that he does not talk about. || No one knows very much about his original clan or why he left, but what he says is that his father was killed in an attack, and grief caused him to run away. || Can be considered for deputy || kismet
Cedarfrost || Tom|| Warrior || Around 20 moons|| Cedarfrost has a unique, warm ginger coat with a thick underlayer. The tufts of fur around his ears and chest are longer than the rest, giving him the illusion of a larger build. White, dappled spots litter his belly, paws, tail and eyes, contrasting against the cedar - like base colour of his fur. He has sharp, icy blue eyes that are slightly glazed on the left side due to a blindness he had since birth. He has a rather muscular build, with elongated features, like his tail, torso and ears. || Cedarfrost is known for his care-free, sarcastic behaviour, often avoiding heated arguments easily || None | None|| None || None || Ravenskies
Apprentices
Furzepaw|| Tom || Apprentice|| 12 moons|| Furzetail is a long legged tom with pale, scruffy grey fur. He has slightly darker markings that are akin to tabby markings, but they are broken up in spots instead of solid tabby markings, the only ones that are solid are his leg markings. He has a shredded ear and wide green eyes, and has a scar in between his eyes and on the bridge of his nose the shape of an "X"|| Furzepaw is an energetic tom, one who can be a bit of a know it all and a bit bossy, but he means well. He is a sweet guy, one who wants to help and protect everyone who he can, whether they are in Echoclan or not.||Nope!|| Open|| Furzepaw is a former loner, one that was found on the borders when he was around seven moons old. He grew up in the two leg place, in a group of rogues, but one moon he wandered out of the twolegplace, leaving the group of rogues for he didn't quite agree with their ideas, and traveled deep into the forest when he accidentally trespassed onto Echoclans territory when he was 7 moons old, starving since he didn't know how to hunt in the forest, but refused to join in fear that Echoclan was like the rogue group. One day he got into a fight with a pair of rogues outside of the territory, and an Echoclan patrol found him and saved him from the rogues, which was when he joined. ||N/A || Sweetclover1 Mentor: Poisonfox
Sandpaw|| Male|Apprentice||11 moons|| Starting with a skinny, tall frame, Sandpaw has striking green eyes. Though most of his coat is a sandy brown, darker brown specks are scattered. He has no scars marking his body just yet, but due to his clumsiness it shouldn’t be soon until he does. ||Sandpaw is a good humored tom, who takes whatever chance he has to make a joke. He’s clumsy on his feet, and doesn’t always use the best of his senses, he always seems to find himself in some sort of trouble. But he always seems to get out of most punishments, using an extreme cuteness and charm to get out of it. He also seems to be a bit flirty, but he’s a young tom. Hopefully he’ll grow out of it… But other then that, he’s rather kind, though sometimes he can’t resist talking back. ||Open!||Open for kin!||Sandpaw doesn’t have much of a history, as he’s lived a normal life in the clan, at least as normal as a apprentice’s life can be.|| Bisexual|| Echo Mentor: Pebbleskip
Acornpaw|| Tom|| Apprentice|| 7 moons|| Acornpaw has a long, light golden brown pelt. He has a long scar that stretches across his flank from when he snuck out of camp as a kit and was attacked by a fox. His eyes are a copper hue, and he is extremely small for a cat his age.|| Acornpaw is a naive feline, showing lack of proper judgement; his scar is clear proof of this. The young cat is outgoing, and he would even go and befriend rogues. Acornpaw also is full of curiosity. This isn't always a good thing, however, because we know that satisfaction did kill the cat, even if satisfaction did bring it back.||Open for developing crushes|| N/A|| || Acornpaw, as a kit, snuck out of camp several times. He was attacked by a fox and received his scar, but was recently apprenticed. || bluemist Mentor: Sageheart
Frostpaw||Tom||Apprentice||11 moons||His pelt is a dusty white, and his fur is quite short. Small gray dots litter his pelt all over, and his eyes are an icy blue. He has a scar along his back, and his paws are completely gray.|| He's assertive, entering conversations without permission and often embarrasing cats younger than him. He stands proudly, but in a moment of defeat he's more stoic than upset. He can lie for just the sake of lying, but one couldn't exactly say he's deceptive as his lies are normally harmless and unnecessary.||He's open.||His sister is Silverstep.||Past rogue.||Other||Karkitty21
Flashpaw|| She-cat|| Apprentice|| 11 moons|| Flashpaw is a small she-cat with silky, sleek light brown fur with darker brown fur along her spine, a white chin, and green eyes. She has spots all over body except for her face, which has more tabby-ish markings. She has a relatively long tail.|| Flashpaw is a friendly, energetic she-cat who enjoys being around others. She doesn't like to stay in one spot for long and and gets antsy if made to sit still. As such, she prefers hunting over fighting and is quite good at it. She is also quite mischievous, teasing and messing with Foxscar most of all because she knows that she can get away with it. ||Open.|| Adopted younger sister of Foxscar.|| Flashpaw was abandoned by her parents at a young age, only survivng because Foxscar found and protected her. While originally put off by his appearance, they quickly became close and she can usually be found by his side when not running around or hunting.|| glistenfang
Turtlepaw|| Female|| Apprentice|| 10 moons|| Turtlepaw has a beige main coat with a soft underbelly of white fur. Her claws are especially short and there is occasional spots of brown. She has blue eyes and a thin coat.|| With a almost natural urge to hide whenever danger in any shape or form came, Turtlepaw gets her name from her personality. However, that doesn't mean she's not brave at times, it's just harder to be brave at certain times. She likes annoying others for personal good. Hiding away from the scene taught her a valuable skill in life: how to hide and sneak up on others. However, she is very mischievous so don't let the usual fears she has distract you from that! ||Crush is Furzepaw|| Daughter of Echodash|| Turtlepaw was found abandoned as a kit and slowly nursed back to health, abandoned by a rouge group of cats. || None! || NateisRuler Skypaw || She-cat || Apprentice || 7 moons || She is a lean, grey she-cat with dark grey tabby stripes. She has a white spot on her chest, white ankle high socks, and a white tail-tip. She also has bright, light blue eyes. || She is outgoing and loud. She is a very perky and cheery cat, always excited about something. She can be annoying to some cats because she’s always perky and sometimes loud. She loves to learn something new whenever she can, and she asks a lot of questions if she doesn’t understand something. She is almost never serious, so cats can’t always have a serious conversation with her. However, there are exceptions to when she is serious. If some cat is upset, she’ll try to cheer them up however she can, even if she has to be quiet and talk about their problems. The other exception is when the Clan is in a serious time like a meeting, for example, or preparing for a battle; something like that. When she’s out training with her mentor, she is a good listener and a fast learner. She is focused on her training and, not to mention, dedicated. || No mate or crush as of yet. || Her mother was Daycloud and her father was a rogue named Howl. Her mother is dead, and she doesn’t know about her father. Her siblings are also dead. They were stillborn. || She was born of an Echo Clan mother and a rogue father. She was raised in the Clan with her mother, not having any knowledge who her father was. || ツ5 รєς๏ภ๔ร ๏Ŧ รย๓๓єгツ
Adderpaw || Tom || Apprentice || 8 moons || He is a light brown tabby cat with dark brown tabby stripes on his legs, chest, and head only. The rest of his body is a mix of shades of brown. He has a spot of white on his mouth and that’s it, and he has amber eyes. || He is a cat who is antisocial. He isn’t cold or harsh(most of the time), but he just doesn’t enjoy conversation. Granted, he will put up with conversations, but only because he’s in a Clan and needs to talk sometimes. He’s not much of a conversation starter, and sometimes, if he doesn’t enjoy how the conversation is going, he’s not much of a conversation continuer, either. He is kind once a cat gets past his antisocialness, and he is capable of having friends despite what some cats may think. He just doesn’t have many. He is concerned about his training because he wants to be a very good warrior when he becomes of age, so when training is mentioned, he jumps on the opportunity, and he’s focused and dedicated. He actually gets annoyed if training digresses into something else. || No mate or crush as of yet. || He was born of rogues, which may explain his antisocial attitude, and he doesn’t know of any siblings. || He was born outside of the Clan, and he only stumbled into Echo Clan territory when he was chased by a fox at the age of 5 moons. He had somehow gotten separated from his family and stumbled upon a fox den, awaking the fox. He didn’t know how to climb trees, so he just ran until he was saved by some Echo Clan warriors who jumped in and chased the fox away. He is forever grateful for that. || ツ5 รєς๏ภ๔ร ๏Ŧ รย๓๓єгツ
Queens
Kits
Cotton || Male || Kit || 2 moons || Cottonkit is a fluffy black tomcat with mottled white markings. His eyes are hazel. He's small compared to his siblings, and a little bit salty about his size. || (Brave, Inquisitive, Charming) When he's got something to investigate, Cottonkit won't quail at anything that stands in his way. Cottonkit is pretty good at flattering others and presenting himself as a likable figure. He tries to make friends with everyone he can. (Zealous, Peaceful) Cottonkit values life in all its forms, and gets anxious during combat. He will always tackle any problem(except for fighting) with as much passion as can fit in his tiny body, no matter how small and insignificant it may be. (Dense, Obsessive, All Bark, No Bite) When Cottonkit sets his mind on something, he won't let it go. He'll forget all about sleeping or eating or anything in favor of working on whatever's got his attention. Cottonkit is painfully, painfully dense he doesn't understand anyone or anything. || None || Cherrykit, Lilykit, other kit || These kits were raised by their mother, until recently she dumped the 4 kits inside of EchoClan territory. Later found by a patrol, the kits have been raised as part of the Clan ever since. || Sherk
Minnow|| She kit || Kit || 2 moons|| Minnow takes a lot after her name sake- she's the runt of the litter, and only slightly bigger than her brother, cotton. She is primarily black, with a long, skinny tail that is tipped with white at the end. She also has white toes and a splash of white over her left eye. She also has a white splash on her chest,'and a white sock on her left paw.Her eyes are a pale green that have a ring of gold around them.)|| Minnow is a bit of a ball of energy- she can never sit still, usually. She lets her curiousity get in the way of her own safety. As she gets older her clanmates will discover she has no speech filter- she will call anyone out if she sees fit.|| N/A|| Cotton, Cherry, and X| She and her siblings where found on a border patrol, in an area where they where left abandoned by their mother.|| she is incredibly prone to getting sick, being the runt, and the last time she got sick she lost the hearing of her left ear and cannot see out of her left eye. || Sweetclover1 Elders

Wailing, Yowling - If the cat does not have a sore throat, it keeps lungs and chest clear.
Herb Care:
If herbs are wet, leave them out in the sun to dry. Gather fresh herbs when stock gets short. Leave enough of the herb on its plant so it can reproduce when in season. Check herb store often, and throw out old or weak herbs. Wrap honey in dock leaves, with rhubarb to keep fresh. Use bark strips to finish the leaf wrap, or keep the herbs together so they can be fresh.
Hunting and Fighting Techniques
Hunter's Crouch - Keep your body low with your tail sticking straight ahead. Hind legs must be ready to leap and front paws must be ready to pounce. Is also a good fighting technique.
Fishing Catch - When fishing in a lake or river.keep your reflection away from the water. When the fish comes, quickly hook your paw into the water and scoop the fish onto the surface. Finish it off with a quick killing bit.
Squirrel Race - When the squirrel runs up a tree to escape, you quickly run up the trunk beside the squirrel until your fast enough to block it to the top of the tree. You chase it down next and hopefully catch it. Very complicated technique.
Bird Leap - When the bird is aware that it is being hunted and begins to fly up, you leap as high as you can and bat the bird back down. Recommended for older apprentices to learn.
Mouse Stalker - Keep your pawsteps light on the ground and try to slide them so the mouse won't feel your pawsteps.
Rabbit Fishing - A techinique when you are desperate for prey. Find a rabbit hole and make sure a rabbit's in there. Then, wait silently until rabbit's head pops out. Scoop it out like you are fishing, and hopefully catch it.
Battle Moves:
Back kick - Explosive surprise more to catch opponent from Behind. Judge opponents distances from you carefully, then lash out with you back legs, taking the weight on your front paws.
Back rake - A bit like Belly rake, if your a SkyClan cat this move works best. If your fighting a cat from the front, jump over the cats head and score your claws down their back.
Belly rake - A fight stopper. Slice with unsheathed claws across soft flesh of opponents belly. If your pinned down, the belly rake quickly puts you back in control.
Double death bite - Seems dishonorable and is only used against very evil cats. A partner and you take on one cat. Once you've got a hold of your opponent, your partner helps hold down enemy cat, and you both bite hard down on enemy cat's throat. Two pairs of jaws will cut off airway and cat will choke to death. Like I said, it's considered dishonorable and would only be used against evil cats like Tigerstar.
Dizzy dance - Only can be preformed by a extremely small and quick cat against a larger and at least somewhat slower cat. The cat charges head on then swiftly leaped sideways, ducking under the cat then as soon as the cat preforming this attack is out from under the other cat it spins and leaps over it. Then once More spins but rams the side then jumps over/goes under the cat and rams the other side then land one final blow by leaping onto the cat's back and grabbing the scruff with teeth and using your free paws to batter the cat's head. This attack should in the end result in a dizzy or confused enemy.
Dizzy tackle - A great move for swift young warriors facing older, larger warriors. You run in circles around them at top speed until their to dizzy or tired (if the were chasing you) to keep up. Then you tackle them. While they are down, attack. Caution, standing directly over them makes you vulnerable to the Belly Rake. This is a One-on-one move and is not recommended in a place with many foes.
Front paw blow - Frontal Attack. Bring your front paws down hard on you opponents head, claws unsheathed.
Front paw strike - Frontal attack. Slice downward with your front paw at the body or face 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 large opponent. Spring onto the opponents back and grip with unsheathed claws. Now you are beyond the range of your opponent paws and in the position to inflict severe body wounds. A group of apprentices can defeat a large and dangerous warrior in this way.
Leap-and-cover - Ideal for making your opponent feel much pain, leap onto your opponent's back and put your paws over their eyes. For the moment the opponent is blinded, sink your claws into the soft skin around their eyes. If your opponent doesn't run away, take advantage of their temporary blindness and perform leap-and-hold move.
Making sure - You never know if a opponent is actually dead. When an opponent goes limp, they become vunerable, so make sure they are really dead. Bite and slash. Claws unsheathed. When you think they have gone to StarClan, pray and leave.
Partner fighting - Warriors who have trained and fought together will often instinctively fall into a paired defensive position, each protecting the others back while fending off an opponent o either side. Slashing, clawing, and leaping together, battle pairs can be 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 relaxed his grip, thinking you are defeated, push yourself up explosively. This will throw off an unwary opponent and you are in the attacking position.
Scruff shake - Secure a strong teeth grip in the scuff of your opponents neck, then shake violently until he or she is to rattled to fight back. Most effective against rats, which are small enough to throw. A strong throw will stun or kill them.
Tail trip - The opponent moves to you and at the right moment, trip them with your tail.
Teeth grip - Target your opponents extremists- the legs, tail, scuff, or ears- ans sink in your teeth and hold. This move is similar to the leap and hold, except your claws remain free to fight.
Unbalancing act - If a cat is going to bring down all its weight on you while rearing on its back legs, role towards your opponents hind legs to unbalance him.
Upright lock - Finial, crushing more on already weakened opponent. Rear up on your back legs and bring full weight on your opponent. If opponent does the same, wrestle and flip him under you. This move makes you vulnerable to the belly rake, so requires great strength and speed.
Battle Tactics:
Approach from behind your enemy - The advantage is gaining the higher ground is that you can charge at greater speed at the enemy, who will be weakened by having to fight uphill.
Use the light from the sun - The sun should be behind you to dazzle your Use the light from the sun enemy. In green leaf, the midday sun is especially bright and cruel to cats who are used to sulking under the cover of the trees. In leaf bare, the low sun hovers around the eye line like a troublesome bee, keep your enemy from facing it, and they'll have trouble seeing an attacker from any direction.
Know were the wind is coming from - If there is a strong wind, it should be blow from behind you toward the enemy, blinding them with dust and holding them back like a current of a river. If you wish to preserve the element of surprise, the wind should blow from the enemy position toward you so your scent is carried away from them.
Conceal the size of your force - The number of cats in your battle patrols can be hidden to confuse the enemy from a distance. Cats packed tightly together will appear as a small attacking force, encouraging the enemy to be over confidant and make poor strategic decisions. Alternatively, is cats are spread out in signal file, they will look like a solid border of warriors, which will seem impenetrable to an advancing enemy.
Attack from both ends of the Enemy first - If both ends of the enemy line are defeated, the cats in the center of the line will have to fight the two fronts. Even if they are outnumbered, the will be out flanked, vulnerable, and in disarray.
Keep fresh warriors in reserve - Always have adequate reserves of fresh, fit warriors behind the battle line. They will be able to replace injured warriors, launch a separate attack if the enemy tries to encircle your forces, or fend off a surprise enemy from the rear. If the battle is in your favor, finish it by sending your reserve warriors behind the enemy line to surround them and demand surrender.
Feigned retreat and ambush - A group of strong cats charges at the enemy, screeching, then turns and withdraws. Repeat this until the infuriated enemy finally breaks it's line and gives chase. Then the trap is sprung. Other warriors positioned in rabbit holes and other dips in the ground-out of enemy eyes line- attack as soon as your opponents have gone past. The enemy will be forced to stop and turn around to fight the unexpected threat, as they do the retreating cats must turn and charge back at them with full speed. The enemy is caught between two bodies of attacking cats and will quickly surrender.
Water Combat:
Double-Front-Paw - Splashes water into the face of the enemy.
Underwater Leg Sweep (Front of Hind) - The opponent will not see it coming under the water so won’t have a chance to brace himself before losing his balance.
Push-Down and Release - Almost all non-XeoClan cats panic if they are submerged, while XeoClan cats know how to hold their breath underwater. This move can be used to secure a decisive victory, because it’s most likely to make the opponent surrender.
Underwater Clinch - Uses warrior’s weight to hold the opponent below the surface, with a firm grip that enables the warrior to bring his enemy spluttering back to the surface before forcing him under again.
Tail Splash - Temporarily blinds opponent by flicking water in his eyes.
Underwater Push-Off - Crouching and erupting out of the water into opponents, using surprise and impact to knock him off balance.
Sandpaw Splash - Using noise of water splashed at a distance to create a decoy, leaving opportunity for a surprise attack.
Above-Ground Combat:
The Sky-Crusher - Landing with all four feet on top of an opponent, flattening him like a leaf.
The Flick-Over - Landing with front paws outstretched to sweep the opponent off his feet and roll him onto his back.
The Kick - Kicking down hard as the warrior nears the ground, then using momentum from landing to spring away before the opponent can retaliate.
The Slice - Dropping down with claws unsheathed for maximum injury.
The Branch Swing - Holding on to the branch with front claws and swinging hind legs into the opponent’s face.
The Reverse Branch Swing - Holding on to the branch with back claws and striking with front legs through the swing.
The Trunk Swing - Sliding down the trunk and springing off at head height, using hind legs to push off and clear opponents. (Good if tree is surrounded.)
The Reverse Climb - Climbing backward up the trunk as the opponent advances to gain advantage of height; often followed by Trunk Swing.

(Yah, we can! I'm honestly surprised I got a member other then Animefreak so quickly (They had already said they might come.)
Which character of mine do you want to RP with? I can post a starter, unless you want to.)

(Aw, thanks. I've put a lot of work into it! Okay! I'll use Oakwind.)
Oakwind scanned the camp bellow him, high in the branches of a ancient Oak tree. The wind was strong, so he had to dig his claws into the bark, but he still found it enjoyable. After swimming in water, climbing high in the branches of trees was his favorite thing to do. The tom heard the sound of bark ripping behind him, but he identified the sound as a cat walking across the limbs, and paid no attention.

(Well let the RP begin)
-Poisonfox-
Poisonfox lazily walked into the center of camp. He had just finished bossing some apprentices around and he realizes how tiring it can be. " I mean how does a cat have that much energy" he said under his breath and he laid down waiting for someone to talk to him.

Poisonfox
After hearing a very loud noise poisonfox looked up only to see furzepaw on top of Oakland, both were covered in sticks, "Furzepaw!!!! I don't even want to know what you where doing climbing over a senior Warrior. You are really lucky that I am not your mentor or you would be dealing with ticks until you would be old enough to be considered an elder!!" Sighing he turned to Oakland " Are you ok?" He asked in a friendly voice,the apprentice look in disbelief he had never heard Poisonfox not talking in an angry tone.

( Sorry guys, turns out my family is going out for Lunch, and I probably won't be back on for a while. I don't want to seem mean, but could we pause the RP until I get back? Thanks.)

Oakwind let out a large grunt, the weight of Furzepaw on top of his chest. He didn't want to knock the young tom off, in fear of him tumbling to the ground. Instead he gave Poisonfox a slight nod, squirming under Furzepaw, trying to slowly crawl away. At this point he was covered with bark and twigs, but he couldn't care less.

(Ahh I want to make another female. Guess I'll just have make some more toms later. Okay, so Lostsong, Haselclaw, Pebbleskip, and who ever else who wants to come will go on a patrol of sorts, and stumble upon some kits. Maybe they'll be caught in a stream? I know I'm making one, but do one of you want to make one?)
