You are starving, you’re desperate for prey and shelter and your paws are aching as they tread across the rocky landscape. The ground has been getting warmer and warmer and it burns your weary paws.
 
Suddenly, you part your jaws to scent the air, head tilted up, and your ears swivel forward as you smell your first whiff of prey in two days. You immediately sink into a crouch, narrowing your eyes as you stalk forward, pinpointing its location.
 
You lightly step over the ground, placing each paw carefully over the barren landscape until - you spot it. A small mouse snuffling through the dirt, as desperate for food as you are. Your mouth floods with water but you wait, wanting to time it perfectly. A second too soon, you explode into action, chasing after the prey. At last, you sink your claws into it and take a bite of the freshkill. Just as the juicy flavors explode in your mouth, you hear a low hiss from behind you.
 
You spin around to face the enemy cat, but it’s too late. She’s already leapt and pinned you to the ground, wicked sharp claws digging into your shoulders. Her bright golden eyes hold you in place beneath her, fear forcing you still. “What do you think you’re doing on my territory?” she snarls, still holding you in place. You swallow your fear as the large soot-colored she-cat tenses above you, ready to send you running.
 
“I was hungry and I didn’t know this was your territory,” you reply steadily, fighting to keep your voice from trembling. You force yourself to stare straight into her intense eyes, meeting her gaze. You’re not about to just give in; you’ve been traveling forever.
 
Suddenly, a spark flares in her eyes and she steps off of you, sizing you up. “All right. Leave the mouse and go. Next time you’ll get more than a warning,” she promises, the gleam in her eyes showing you she isn’t kidding. Your tail droops slightly in disappointment and you start to walk away without the mouse, but her voice halts you.
 
“Unless of course… you want to follow me and become a brave, agile, unbreakable member of my clan,” she adds, sincerity clear in every word. “But it isn’t for the weak. You got the guts for it?” She turns and heads deeper within her territory, not waiting for an answer.
 
Now it’s up to you: Will you follow? Or not?

Hello and welcome to EmberClan! The clan is owned and run by two best friends - practically sisters - in real life, Silv and Rambo (~ѕΙℓΝєямΙѕт~ and ~PhoenixFeather~. "Rambo" is...a long story). We're both in high school: Rambo's a junior, Silv's a sophomore. We've been friends since early elementary school, and while Rambo's been on the forums for over 4 years now, Silv got started earlier this year and is passionate about roleplaying and clans. Thus, EmberClan was born!
 
EmberClan is a semi-literate roleplay that's a bit different from others; it's not your typical setting and we're starting right off with an exciting, suspenseful plotline, the details, twists and turns, and depth of which unravel as the roleplay goes on. We're leaving much of the plot and end results of said plot up to you guys; we plant a few plot twists and guide it a little, but even we don't know how things will turn out.
 
We hope you like our clan, and we're both very excited to meet you and roleplay with you if you decide to join!
