Hello! As you may have been able to tell, this formerly was a planning page for the Clans in the book. However, we decided to change gears and go for a new idea. Below is a more detailed explanation of the idea.

FawnClan was a Clan I created and ran on WCF. With the restrictions on the forums, I could not make it how I wanted. Since we have moved and the rules are slightly more open, it can be created how it was originally intended. Residing in a massive and lush forest, the cats of FawnClan differ greatly from other Clans on WCRP. While they still have StarClan, they worship five spirits. The first spirit and the one believed to have created the land is the Great Spirit. Not much is known about her besides that she sometimes comes to the Clans in the image of a fawn or doe. The other four spirits were created by her and are named after the four seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. FawnClan is broken up into five "families" of which are under the spirits. The fifth family is under the Great Spirit and are the leaders of the Clan. An heir is chosen from a litter and they are trained to be leader once their parents die. The heads of the other families are called generals and have specific tasks. There is a council made up of elders, the generals, the deputy, and the medicine cat. There is more to this Clan than what you may think. You are welcome to join us in developing the ideas further.

I understand that the majority of the tasks are completed. However, there are still tasks we all must help to complete. It would be a wise idea to join in our group discussions and actively contribute. This is not only to prevent deletion, but also so you are not left out. Your word is important. Contributing can also help build the community here. You will be informed, you can develop friendships with the others and create a nice atmosphere for yourself and future members. If I do not see you contribute, or actively contribute, I will not think you will be committed to the role-play when it is complete. I will also assume you will not be active. Personally, I want all the staff to get along and help make this last longer than a normal role-play does. I can understand if personal issues get in the way, just please let one of us know through private message, or on the page. Time and patience applies to many different things. Taking over the planning page because you want to get something out will not help us. It will only irritate me for sure and set us up for failure. I understand that planning for a while can get aggravating and you can lose interest, but rushing to complete things will only create a mess for the others. Planning takes time. As for ranks, helpers, please be patient. I understand you may want a high position, but we need more important tasks completed. We need to manage our time wisely, as the longer we are planning, the less chance we have to succeed. Again, we will not rush, but we will not hurry to the finish line. If no one is online or they are busy with something else, like just one of there posts and work on something like characters. Before I continue on, the "like" idea does not mean every single post nor every single time someone leaves. Give them time, be patient, do not annoy. Personally, it puts me off and pushes me away when someone likes every single one of my posts. You can like to agree, but summoning me makes me feel like a dog and I will feel the urge to ignore you. It is aggravating and this will be broken with my luck, but a fair warning. As for when we open, we will have the minimum of two days notice prior to opening. We will open without people if need be. You had a chance to check, you did not. Now if an admin or helper has not been on due to some emergency, we will wait, but if you give the all clear and do not show, too bad. Admins, your secondary leader will open for you if your helper does not want to. I have a way I am going to do the forms and Clans. Asking for a Clan will result in you losing your right as an admin or a chance to be. You fill out the form like anyone else, you wait, and when the time is right, the Clans will given. If someone asks, they are to be ignored or directed to the rules. I know it is mean, but it is rude on the person's part to not read the rules I have taken the time to type out. There is a chance someone will ask to do a task, most of the time it is layouts, again, they are to be directed to the rules or ignored. I will have everything clearly stated or easy to understand. I know this sounds mean, I know, but I have done a lot of planning pages. I have ran a lot of role-plays. When people ask for things without reading, it irritates me because it is a slap in the face. For those who would like to help, I am sorry, but I am only accepting five. When Clans are decided, you can select one to help run, but the admin must accept you. If not, an arrangement will be worked out. As long as things do not get out of hand, those who are interested in joining can chat with us. Characters can be discussed and potential side plots. Saves for characters can be made, but all character forms will need to be moved to the joining page. Chatters are not helpers, and I would prefer they not try to help with things. It will only complicate and possibly distract us. If the chatting gets to be too much, I will say something. Discussions about characters tend to sidetrack helpers and admins, so if you discuss characters, be cautious of how much you mention it because the other tasks need to be completed first. Ah, here we go. I am not wanting the most advanced role-players, but I do want to reply to someone who can write more than three sentences with horrible grammar and spelling. I will accept people who are very advanced, but I will not force members to write two paragraphs. As for the form, write or offer what you would normally do. I will go back and check, so be honest with me because if you give this detailed and amazing post, but I see you averaging much less, I will deny you. I am also looking for people who are on at the minimum of five days. I know it sounds like a lot, but I get on everyday and manage to balance everything. I also ask that it is not just one hour per day because there is not enough time to get through things properly. It just will not work out. If you can code, or you have an idea of navigating through coding, that would be great. I say this because I have had people have trouble with the layouts in the past no matter the difficulty. It would be easier in general so if someone accidentally makes a mistake, they can fix it on their own. Of course, I can fix things that seem like it just will not work anymore, but the small things. Running a Clan is also something I would hope a potential admin and helper has done before. This is so I will not feel like I have to go out of my way to make sure you are doing alright. I plan for the role-play to open and the admins do their thing with their helper and secondary leaders and it be all fine. All staff must be on at least six days a week. You are allowed to be "just checking" the pages, but if you role-play somewhere, you also need to role-play here. Life can get in the way, but if you have time to role-play at another place, you can make a short post here. A simple greeting will not suffice, meaning it needs to be something kind of important. As for legitimately role-playing, you need to at least five days a week. This Clan cannot and will not survive if everyone is inactive. Since this is a somewhat fresh idea, you need to help contribute to it. Since the idea changed, there will now only be one admin. Apologies to the other admins, but if you are still interested, you can help and possibly be a mod. However, mod positions will only be given to those who have not only contributed the most, but have actively been on and showed a great interest in the idea. If you fall behind, you will not get a high rank, period. It is harsh, but we cannot just give out positions to people who did barely any work. Secondary leaders also serve another purpose. They are to monitor the work of the admin they have been assigned to and make sure they are upholding the rules and doing what they are meant to do. If the staff member is caught doing something they should not be doing, a penalty will be issued. Before anyone questions this, it will be delivered in the private chat for the staff. Evidence must also be provided. It will be discussed and if the staff being issued the penalty is innocent, as something may have been missed, then the penalty will be taken away. The first penalty is a warning. The second results in temporary loss of their administrative or moderating rights (except for updating the page if the person is admin). Their main or high rank character will fall ill or injured and be unable to do their duties. If they have a character that is one of the leaders, the leader will lose a life. The next in command will handle the administrative or moderating rights and the deputy will perform the leader's duties. The third penalty results in the demotion of the administrator or moderator to a regular member and the page will be remade. Their leader character will retire or step down and the deputy will become leader. Their main or high rank character will either die or step down. Five strikes equal a penalty unless it is a severe case. To prevent issues constantly coming up, the staff will meet twice a week and discuss issues with the Clan. Strikes may be discussed here. Admins and staff are restricted in the roles they may take. If the admin chooses to have the leader position in their Clan, they can not take the deputy, medicine cat, or the medicine cat position. Deputies and heirs will be chosen by the admin. While regular members do have the chance to be deputy, they will not always be promoted to mod status because their character being deputy, leader, or heir. Mods and trusted members will be looked at first for the position. There will be a rotation for deputy and heir in place. Because their can be two leaders, two members of the staff can be leader, with one being deputy, and another being heir. It is preferred two members of the staff have one of the ranks, but if it is deemed alright, the rotation may not always take place. Medicine cats and their apprentices will not be chosen. However, the medicine cat must be alright with getting an apprentice. As for plots, we will be doing something called "Chance Charts." These are to help push a plot forward and cause conflict within the Clan, as well as create a sense of realism. Staff members must be fair with these. If there is a member you do not like, you cannot rig the chances against them. You also cannot rig the chances to where the majority of your characters live or the majority of them die. ➤ ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 Rainleaf completely did the coding, drawings, and wrote the chance generators. She also typed up the rules for the planning page. The idea of FawnClan, the naming system, spirits, rank system, general territory, general ceremony ideas are also Rainleaf's. Chibi and Cyn are currently assisting with detailing these ideas.
➤ Warriors Wiki The herbs, battle moves, warrior code, illnesses and treatments, as well as some of the ceremonies on the special pages are located on the wiki. This information also comes Erin Hunter as well.

Rain's Form: ➤ ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 | Rain, Rainers, Rainy ● Admin ● ThunderClan, ShadowClan, SkyClan ● I have ran various role-plays on the original WCF. A friend of mine and I ran an original five Clans role-play similar to this. I have also ran a few successful Clans one being called FawnClan. ● Everyday. ● Central. ● Role-play Sample: Sparrowpaw | Elm Woods | Mid-Morning The young tabby tom had sneaked out of the camp to avoid training with his mentor. While he liked Turtlemist, the apprentice grew tired of the same daily routine. Training, then gathering moss and taking care of the elder, more training, and catching something on the way back to camp fatigued the apprentice. He wanted to do something different for a change, something that wasn't a clone of the previous day. Sparrowpaw had hoped his mentor wouldn't mind, nor notice, if he took a day to hunt. It was a far better alternative compared to falling asleep as Turtlemist went on and on about how his crouch was lopsided. Despite this, the tom scolded himself in the back of his mind for ditching important training and attempted to prepare himself for a possible tongue-lashing by Turtlemist herself. As he walked along the undergrowth, lost in his thoughts and jokes he thought to himself, something caught his eye. He stopped, assessing the area. In the distance, he spotted a glimpse of a doe and her precious fawn. Sparrowpaw gawked, unable to believe he had gotten a view, although short, so early in his apprenticeship. The tom hadn't been apprenticed long and therefore had not seen many gorgeous sights. Luckily, he had time with his youth and the curiosity he held would certainly guarantee spectacular sights. Sparrowpaw snapped from his trance when he caught something moving among the undergrowth. He prepared to leap at the creature before realizing it was his father. The small tom quietly made his way towards his father, carefully placing his tiny paws where only grass grew. However, he was still quite new to stalking and neglected to pay attention to his surroundings. A sharp pain in his side forced a small hiss of pain from his throat. He turned to see a large thorn bush growing and a tiny tuft of his fur attached. It wasn't enough to make anyone notice until they searched for it. Sparrowpaw swiveled his ears, listening for his father in the case he had heard him. ● Do you have any ideas for rules and the plot? Yeah, we'll get to that.

➤ [Chibiterasu] | Most call me Chibi, but feel free to call me whatever you want ● Helper please ● Skyclan, Riverclan, and Shadowclan ● I have never ran one, but I have helped out with many roleplays in the past both from WCF and here. At least on here, I have help out with one of your planning pages before called Into the Wild. The current one I am helping out with is called Cliffclan. ● I will say at least 8/10. The reason for this is due to college, which can take up some of my time. ● Eastern Standard Time ● Role-play Sample: Morningpaw||Camp||Late Morning
As the day drifted on, it made one realize this; time had a weird sense of humor. At first, it felt like the things were rushing towards the older apprentice. Earlier, all she wanted to do was fall into a deep slumber. She was normally a morning cat, but this time she felt exhausted and wanted nothing to do with waking up. Yesterday had been a long day for her as her mentor, and the clan had found a billion things for her to do. It made her wonder what her brother, Deerstride must have felt being a warrior, but at the same time, she felt grateful. One day, she would be just as capable as he was maybe stronger and she wanted to be prepared for anything that the life of warrior had in store for her.
However, now that she was up and about things had slow down. Her mentor seemed to unavailable for one, and it made this one request of hers seem unbearable to hold within. Lately, there was another training method that the clan had, but did not prioritize as much. She wanted to learn and hopefully have another aspect that would be useful to her and her clan. Not only that, but she could collect some shells or something near the river. She had no other reason for it other than they seem shiny and attractive to her. Another problem came with the fact that the clan didn't seem to have anything in store for her. It looked like they had given those jobs to other cats and now she wondered if she had jinx herself yesterday when she thought about just wanting to sit around and sleep. It was possible that they had drag Deerstride into a patrol or something too since she had no idea where that tom went, and she would love to speak to him or do something together. In the end, it was genuinely funny how time can make things frustrating regardless if you desire or dread something.
Letting out a sigh, Morningpaw decided to groom her pelt once more. As her tongue licks over the already flatten and clean parts, she attempted to reason with herself that at least she was taking extra care of her appearance—not that she didn’t do that already. As she tried to reach behind her, something caught her attention. Someone who was much younger than she was, but still an apprentice was sitting by an oak tree. She noticed how their tail seems to lash about and she was sure that it might just fling itself off and go rogue at this rate. Morningpaw squinted her eyes as she tried to recall the face, but the only thought that came was how she had seen this apprentice before. Either way, this was someone, and it didn’t seem like they had much to do. Ignoring her task, she started approaching the cat with a bright smile. She appears to sing out the words “Hey there! What a releaf it is to see someone is still around. What’s up?”
● Do you have any ideas for rules and the plot? No ideas for the plot yet, but I do have one for the rules. Over the years, I have notice (and yes I have been guilty of this in the past) that when it comes to some medicine cats, the herbs seem to be easily located in their respective territories. Not only that, but seasons can sometimes be ignored as well making certain herbs that shouldn't be available seem to be in supply. In the books, not every herb will be found in one's territory and sometimes they will have to travel to other territories to get it. The same goes with seasons. Maybe something that addresses this so we don't have those problems in the future.

➤ a diamond's pearl | Silver/Spirit are just fine ● Administrator ● RiverClan, ShadowClan, WindClan ● I am currently helping out with a Tribe roleplay, but most of the roleplays I've made were back on the WCF. ● How I'm on pretty often after at least 4 on weekdays. And it depends on weekends. But otherwise, I consider myself pretty active. ● Central time USA ● Role-play Sample:
Morningdusk xx Forestxx Early morning
Right. Left. One foot after the other. Was the the technique he kept repeating in his mind as he made his way through the forest. The ground underneath his pink pawpads was still wet with dew, and the sun had barely risen yet. And he had to fluff his thick, cream colored pelt to block out the morning chill. His chocolate tabby ears were pricked, alert in case anything was lurking, and his little pink nose twitched as he sniffed the air. His pale blue eyes flickering from side to side. Scanning his surroundings. The masculine froze once he heard a rustling nearby. The nervousness in his blue eyes quickly turning to fear. A drop of water fell on his nose and it set him off. Taking a tremendous leap into the air, a yowl escaping his predominately cream maw. Once he regained his balance once again on the moss forest floor, the tom glared up above him at a very tall tree. How embarrassing that would have been if someone had been with me! Come on Morningdusk, get yourself together. My mission is more important than being silly, letting water falling on your nose. He mentally scolded himself, setting off once more. More prepared for any dew that was dripping from above. But no matter how hard he tried, Morningdusk would never stop being so jumpy. But his trip would be coming to an end soon, or at least this first one did, since he had many other places to stop. As a still pool came into view. Farther ahead a small waterfall, fell into the pool. Clearly the source of what had created it. And large gray rocks shielded it from the left and right sides of it. But all was still this morning. Not even the wildlife had begun to stir at this time of day. Not even any prey sat bathing in the sunlight atop of the rocks as they usually did during the evening time. It was then when the cat realized how hungry he was. I should have eaten while I was still in camp. Then I wouldn't even be worrying about this right now. But Morningdusk was perfectly capable for hunting. He wasn't completely helpless all the time. As the thick-furred tom neared the edge of the pool. He made a hard left turn towards a patch of growing plants. Little blue flowers sprouted from the ground. They were the shapes of stars, and little spiky looking leaves poked out from behind the petals. But Morningdusk wasn't interested in the buds, he was more interested in the leaves that sprouted out along the stems of the plants. They were borage leaves. Very good for nursing queens and for fevers. Though no one was pregnant or sick at the moment, it was still wise to collect more just in case. I never know what kind of sicknesses or pregnancies were just waiting to come. Delicately as he could, the tom reached out a furry dark brown paw and tested how old the leaves were. Majority were ready to be picked but some were still a little fuzzy. Slowly, he reached his neck forward and nipped a few of the leaves away from the stem until he was sure he had enough. "Excellent. Just perfect." He murmured, collecting all of the leaves in his wide jaws before trotting away. Feathery tail kinked over his back as he ventured through the forest to collect his next set of herbs. ● Not as of right now. But I'll be thinking about it :3

I know the rules will probably be a bit long no matter how we write it, so I think we should just split it up into general sections. We'll probably get a few repeats, but as long as it applies to the certain section, it should be fine. I think we should a warning or an advisory before the rules began stating that "anything" can happen to someone's cat referring to the chance charts, as well as all the admins have the right to amend or add a rule.
The sections I think we could have are: ● General Rules - We could even put the advisory to save some place, but just the general things like follow all rules and behave. ● Activity - A run down of what we expect and what will happen if these rules are broken, obviously. ● Literacy - Pretty self-explanatory, it's what we'd expect for grammar, spelling, and how much we would like in responses. ● Role-playing - Obviously we'd put what not to do, but I don't think we need to go into detail. If someone has a question of what something is, the admin of that Clan can explain. One thing I want to put in here is that maybe the admins/leaders could be choosing names for warriors, but take a suggestion from the owner of the characters. I know it takes some freedom away, but I feel like it'll bring some nostalgia from the books. ● Realism - Chibi mentioned earlier about how the herbs aren't always found in each Clan, but in different Clans as well. I think if we make this a rule, it can bring more drama. I personally like her idea. Besides that, we can also put limits on what cats can do. I've seen someone role-play a queen and have them attack a fox and almost die and stuff and that went way too far for it to be real. So after a certain point, a queen would be confined to camp and just general stuff like that. ● Characters & Joining - This has been the rule that has been broken the most when I've ran a Clan. Unrealistic patterns and colors, typical stereotypes like anti-sues, you name it. I think that kits shouldn't be an option to join with unless a queen has just given birth and a person has permission to role-play one of the kits. I do think that queens should be allowed, but someone needs to be the queen's mate. Adding onto that, I think the potential couple needs to get along without someone changing their character. So if someone offers a sharp-tongued tom with a bad attitude and they turn into a mush-bucket, then that should be a warning sign. Somewhat even genders would be nice, but warriors have become less popular compared to apprentices from what I've seen. I tend to have issues with assigning mentors when there are a ton of apprentices. I personally like to cap off the apprentices in general at ten, but I'd like everyone's input. If it becomes a plot where there are so many young warriors and apprentices, I think that's cool, but not on a daily basis. Obviously prefixes should make sense. If someone joins with Monkeypaw or Mangopaw, it seems really out of place. ● Plots & Ranks - If someone goes overboard with hinting at being deputy, I think that should automatically disqualify them. It's annoying and they wouldn't act like that if the position wasn't open. I also think that deputies should be decided on the person's behavior first, but we may not need to have that exactly as one of the helpers may be deputy or leader. (Not promising anything right now.) An explanation of the line of seniority (or what we would call it) would be helpful as well. I like to plan little events out so it isn't so random and so we have something to look forward to. So we can plan a major plot event and have a date set, or an assessment, or a kitting. As for plot continuation, I think we should have a system to where if someone vanishes, we can continue on without deleting them entirely. It makes any character development odd, as if someone was in love with a cat and then that cat is gone because of a deleted member, it is back to square one. We can have a replacement or have them killed off. Killing them off would be easier depending on the season and if greencough is about. It also creates drama. ● Consequences - Obviously, we need consequences for people who break the rules. I want to see what you guys think on how we punish someone for it.
It seems I rambled a bit. I'm sorry about that. xD

Ah, thank you <3 and welcome aboard Spirit! I am fine with that being under the realism selection if we have one. As for plots, I have been brainstorming on that a couple of times. Here is one of the ideas I had. If we decided to do a virus plot with at least some of the clans, I was attempting to figure out what twist we could place on it. One idea was what if a leader decides to utilize the virus turning it into their greatest weapon, or at least they hope against the other clans. Their goal is that they want to increase their clan’s survival and having weakened foes would make it easier to achieve certain things without worry such as expanding territory and accessing food. It is possible they are the only ones that know about the cure and the source of where the virus came from giving the leader a possible reason for being so okay with this.
Another idea was to have a clan take things too far. Similar to how the medicine cat was in Into the Wild when they were strict to the warrior code and even willing to kill, someone mistakes Starclan’s intentions to mean something else. I am not sure what this could be, but maybe Starclan has been silent for a while, a prophecy or a dispute at a gathering causes the moon to cover up. They believe that Starclan is angry with them because they have not stayed faithful to their roots to the warrior code. Cats are willing to break it, which seems like a slap to Starclan. The clan could eventually start enforcing these laws to a T and punish anyone that breaks it. This attitude could even start leading to attempting to cleanse the other clans of their unfaithful warriors, which could result in some murder mystery or something.
This idea is a bit of a weird one, but something seems amiss with the clans. Cats start to behave differently as at first some look like they are distracted, stress, etc. The one that was noted was that they all spoke about these strange lights in their dreams and that they must help them. Eventually, these cats’ personalities start to change almost as if their bodies have been swapped. As the others attempt to figure out what is going on eventually something cues them in about ghosts that are not from Starclan or the Dark Forest. Whether the others believe it is up to them, but it is true that these cats are being possessed and these spirits have their own agenda for the clans.
These are just a few ideas I had that are still rough around the edges. Feel free to use any of these or to do something else to improve or use a different plot.

I like the first two. We could may mix them together if it doesn't get too complicated.

I can accept mashing the first two up. Any idea on how that would work smoothly though?

Well, we can state that since we made the role-play, it will be ran out we want. If they think it isn't the role-play for them, it won't offend us if they don't join.

I am fine with combining the first two ideas. I can start thinking of a possible way to do that. As for the rules, I am still thinking of some more, but I think that list gives us a good idea of what our goals should be. I do have some comments from some of the statements you made, Rain.
As for the naming ceremonies, I am fine with that. I think it balances out with the fact that the owner can mention suggestions on what they prefer their cat to be named. For whatever reason, if the person fails to inform their leaders about what potential name(s) they would prefer then it will be up to the leader to decide. Now I am not saying this happens with every roleplay, but when it comes to apprentices if someone chooses to be a mentor then they will need to train the apprentice and preferably more than once. Once their training is completed, it'd be wonderful to see a test just like you do in the books. It could bring some inherent drama too if an apprentice does indeed fail their warrior assignment. I agree with the other limitations. I feel there should be some consequences if someone chooses to do something risky that could result in the death of their characters such as a warrior attempting to chase out a fox or a kit wandering off from the camp. If someone doesn’t come to the warrior’s rescue or finds a kit, then there is a good chance they will die.
As for kits, I think orphan kits are still fine if there is a good reason for it. If a queen is willing to adopt then if the reason is acceptable, I feel it should still be allowed. Of course, there shouldn't be too many. I doubt that mothers are abandoning their kits left and right. I am also curious to know how you all feel about half-clanners and outsiders joining the clan. I feel there should be a limited amount of them since we don’t want an influx of them. As for apprentices, I agree with that. Maybe a possible suggestion is as the number of warriors rises to a good amount, and the max number of apprentices is full, we could increase it a bit to open more apprentice spots. I agree with the rest of what you said.
Yes, I agree that deputy begging should get you automatically disqualified. As for the choosing, I find that reasonable. I think the idea of killing off the characters if the person fails to be active is a good idea. It would help continue to the roleplay without being stuck and of course, could cause some drama. Replacements make me a bit iffy as it could cause confusion (at least from what I have seen) especially if the roleplayer returns. It depends on how we will do that and I am curious about the possible system that could go with this. Usually what I end up thinking is something along these lines: Let say that Wolfleap’s roleplayer vanishes due to inactivity and this cat has contributed a lot to the roleplay. So, it is decided to replace the cat with someone else called Hawkleap and have them be the ones that did all of those contributions and relationships.

For apprentices, I think three training sessions and the assessment is good enough. That way people can get the first one out of the way and do two others so it's not one and done. The assessment would be fun to role-play out, as the deputy and/or leader would watch them.
Yep, that's how it'd go, Chibi. We could have the admin or mod message the person that was deleted, explaining the situation and the options. They can come back and we can make up something to excuse their character's absences, or they will be replaced. The character could be a close copy of the original, but there would be enough so it isn't a rip off. Of course other things like personality and history can change a bit, but appearance and name would be similar. If the person doesn't want a replacement, then the characters will be announced dead. I don't think every character should have a replacement, though. Only if we feel they need one or if they had some kind of plot going. We can think of illnesses that happen in different seasons that wouldn't be too uncommon to help with random deaths.

➤ @silvey | Cyn ● Helper ● Windclan, Skyclan, and Shadowclan ● I have lead WindClan on here, working on AriaClan, and lead a few Clans on the WCF ● Starting to get on every day, but I usually get off around 8:00 or 9:00 in the evening, if I wake up late or had a late dinner I will stay on until 12:00 in the morning. ● Central ● Role-play Sample:
Wrenwhisker was looking around the camp trying to avoid others. He wasn't in the mood to talk to others, nothing really bad happened. Although he rather stays out of conversations as best as he can. The lithe tom went to his favorite spot in the camp it was quiet and serene and he wouldn't be bothered. As he was padding up to it, although there was a tom. He sighed mentally it seems like he couldn't get away from his Clanmates. He didn't know Leaftumble all that well but noticed he wasn't in the best of mood. "Afternoon Leaftumble," he said, his voice was deep but calm like an undisturbed pond. He stood where he was not daring to get too close to the tom. "Is something troubling you? You don't have to talk to me of course, just concerned."
{I have problems with dyslexia, I have trouble with spelling and grammar. }
● Do you have any ideas for rules and the plot? I have nothing more to add to it but I do like the idea of possibly mashing up the idea's and seeing how it will turn out. I also have nothing for rules at the moment. Also if I randomly poof it's because my computer has been acting really funny.

Glad to have you Cinder! As for the replacements, I see well I am willing to see how it all goes. We can't kill off every single character.

Hmm, I have a rule idea.
If someone joins as a rogue, loner, or a kitty pet they can't be all over the place. Like they can't be in two territories at one time. For example, They can't be in Thunderclan's territory and then be in Shadowclan's at the same time. If they want to have their character move they will have to ask the admin of both clan's to see if it's okay, but at the same time not have their character move around a whole lot.
Sorry if this is a bit confusing I'm a bit tired.
