 INTROAs you pad through the rubble, you look all around, surveying the scene before you. Twoleg dens left and right, fallen to the ground. Junk clutters the path that you travel, and your paws ache from the hard thunderpaths you have trodden. Once in a while you will see another cat, but the encounters are never pleasant. All the creatures here are hostile, rooting through the trash, desperate for a scrap of food to eat. Just when you think you are alone, a creamy she-cat with orange tabby spots slinks out from behind a boulder. She jumps in surprise at the sight of you, her eyes wide.
"What are you doing out here in the Twolegplace?" she asks in a hushed tone, moving closer to you. "You know it's not safe here, right?" You shake your head, trying to explain that this is your first time here. "Is it now?" The she-cat seems surprised, her ears perked. "Well, traveller, would you like to come to our clan? We can't promise you'll be safe, but you won't be alone." She looks over her shoulder for a moment. "Living out here, a cat has to do what they can to survive, right?"HISTORY After the complete and assured destruction go the Twoleg world, the population of the warriors of the lake exploded. With more mouths to feed than there was prey, a brave ShadowClan deputy by the name of Raggedflight suggested that some of the warriors move into the old Twoleg territory. This was, by no cat’s surprise, passed as heresy. However, Raggedflight persisted, and ended in gathering a small but vocal following. It was not until a great famine that the four leaders allowed her to leave.
She was granted her leadership status and nine lives from StarClan, as well as a name for her following- HopeClan. The newly formed Clan set off soon afterward. What followed was later titled the Journey of Hope, which despite its name was filled with strife and death. None of the cats that made the journey remain alive, but their story was passed down in a small rhyme fashioned by some of the younger cats.
“Oh the Journey of Hope was a tragic tale indeed, t’was when our leader Raggedstar of all her lives was freed! First by flood, next by plague, third was by a dog- fourth by rouges, fifth by hawk, sixth a turn took wrong- seventh was poison, eighth was crushed, but ninth for sure the worst! She died delivering stillborn kits to be buried on this earth. It was in this that we saw, the name HopeClan was all wrong. RaggedClan! RaggedClan! In her name we stand strong!”
It was shortly after their leader’s death that the group settled in a small Twolegplace and established a weak territory wrought with dangers and trial. Today, their descendants face even greater hardships as their ragtag group grows among the remains of the Twoleg world.
RULES
1) No god modding please! You cannot decide what happens to another person's character. Describe your action and let them decide how it effects the character.
2) Keep your replies in sentence form and use proper grammar to the best of your ability. It would be preferred to keep your replies at least two to three sentences, but sometimes only one sentence is fine, situation permitting! Don't worry too much about trying to make your replies longer than they need to be.
3) Try to keep your character realistic. Stick to natural colorations and patterns, and don't make them super powerful and always the one to hit their mark. All characters have flaws and it's fine to exploit them! Being the winner all the time makes it less fun for everyone else.
4) Follow the general forum rules please! I really don't want this getting taken down.
5) Keep conversation outside of RP in parenthesis or brackets. I love talking to you guys about stuff other than the RP, but keeping it in parenthesis keeps things organized!
6) Try to be fairly active please! I understand that everyone has a life outside of the internet and that's great! It would be cool for you to RP at least once a week, and if you aren't active for a month I'll probably remove you unless you inform me otherwise.
7) HAVE FUN!! Roleplaying is super cool and I hope you all enjoy yourselves!

WORLD MAP Clan Camp- The home base of RaggedClan. A good part of the camp dwells in the basement of an old Twoleg den, while a few other components are above on the ground. The only way into the depression is through a slope of soil that collapsed down in the corner. Field Home- The remains of an old Twoleg den. Only a few pieces of the foundation remain, and they are overgrown with moss and weeds. It is a safe place for hiding as well as training apprentices. Flood Home- Bits and pieces of a Twoleg den that have been flooded. The water that has pooled up around the rubble is the cleanest water in the area, and is the clan’s main source of drinking water. There is no animal life in the area, but it will sometimes attract unwanted visitors like dogs and foxes.The Gully- A steep dropoff created by water erosion. At the bottom of the dropoff is a pool of water that is not considered very clean. The water runs through the rocky field to the north, and it is advised not to drink from it. Frogs and insects can be found in the pool, but the only way to get to the banks safely is to cross over the thunderpath and move around to the side.Wild Wood- A huge patch of woods that spans across the entire south end of the map. The woods are infested with wild creatures, the most well known being a huge pack of dogs. The dogs usually never leave the wood, but if they are hungry enough they will venture out into the open to hunt. Mother Mouth- A huge opening in the ground that leads to the Moonstone. The warriors of old times used to travel here to talk to StarClan. Ravaged Plain- A wide expanse of land that used to be a forest. There are tree stumps and upturned dirt as far as the eye can see. Bits of undergrowth have begun to shoot up, but nothing significant will be growing there for a while. To reach the plain you must cross a field of high stones. Twoleg Place- A large area covered in the ruin of what used to be the home of the Twolegs. It is now a mixture of rubble and wild plants that have begun to overgrow the old structures. It is full of feral cats and dogs. It is advised not to travel there alone, if at all.Mountains- A tall mountain range that looms in the distance. The clans of old crossed these mountains to reach their new home at the lake.CLAN CAMP
1)Leader’s Den / Calling Rock- A pile of rubble beside an old Twoleg den. The stones are angled in such a way that a small cavern has been created beneath them, only large enough for two cats at most. The largest rock is used to call clan meetings.
2)Warrior’s Den- A huge bush that grows low to the ground. A few branches have been pulled out so that cats can enter. Its location allows the warriors to see the entire camp from their den site.
3)Apprentice’s Den- A smaller bush that has prickly thorns on its branches. The thorns inside have been smoothed away, and around the edges thick weeds grow, sealing off the inside. It is small, but functions well to protect apprentices.
4)Medicine Cat’s Den- A large tree that towers over everything in the camp. The roots of the tree are exposed and gnarled, and it is easy to store herbs in the holes beneath them. There is a burrow beneath the tree, most likely created by a fox long ago. The burrow is small, but it has room for several cats to sleep inside. Many of the clan cats will rest in the shade beneath the tree.
5)Nursery- The nursery can be found beneath a huge beam of concrete that fell into the camp at an angle. Weeds grow along the edges inside, and the clan has built up bits of rubble along the open side, leaving only a small entrance. The den is dark but it is the most well protected area in the camp.
6)Elder’s Den- A bush whose lower branches have been buried in soil, creating a cozy cavern between the branches that continually grow upward in search of light. Very little light comes through the thick boughs. |

CATS OF THE CLANLEADER
Hollowstar / Male / 17 Moons
freezyrat
Hollowstar is a solid black tom with a thin overlay of silvery hairs on his short pelt. The fur on his face has thinned away, revealing his pinkish skin. His form is slight and fragile, his limbs thin. His eyes are a deep orange. Hollowstar is very reckless and young. He was thrust into the position of leader when his sister, the current leader of the Clan, went missing in the Wild Wood, never to return. Because of his carefree attitude he has lost several lives, despite being leader for only a short amount of time. Many cats do not believe he should have become leader, as he has little experience in a position of power.
Family: Rapidstar (Deceased)
Lives left: 6
Deaths: Rouge attack, falling debris, food poisoningDEPUTY(Will be determined after a short while when more active members become obvious)MEDICINE CATS
WARRIORS
Plumdrop / Female / 12 Moons
FANATTIC (Blackpuddle)
Plumdrop is pretty much albino and has poor eyesight as pretty poor eye sight, but it's well enough for her to still become a warrior. Her fur is a faded white and her eyes look something close to this but more pink. Generally pretty happy but also very quiet. She likes to hunt and groom herself.
Her parents died when she was very young. She has little-to-no memory of them, but it doesn't seem to bother her much. If it does, she never admits it.
Talonsong / Female / 23 Moons
freezyrat
Talonsong is a creamy white she-cat with orange tabby spots on her head, back, back right leg, and tail. Her nose and paw pads are pink with darker pink splotches. The bottoms of her paw pads are heavily scarred. Her eyes are a deep green. Talonsong is very careful and deliberate in her actions, always looking over her shoulder for possible danger. She prefers not to openly communicate her feelings to others, even when she is in pain. Her paws are very sensitive because of their scars, and she is very self-conscious about her handicap. She does everything she can to prove to her clanmates that she can still be of use despite her injury.
When she was younger she was part of an exploration of the Twolegplace, where she walked on broken glass and was confined to the Medicine Den for a good while before the cuts healed, though the scars will never be gone.

Fiddles / Male / 18 Moons
FANATTIC (Blackpuddle)
Pretty much like this but with grey eyes. He also wears a ragged, torn up light blue collar with small black music notes on it.
Generally doesn't trust others, pretty full of himself and seemingly doesn't care what happens to himself. He's a bit of a daredevil but also super lazy. He likes to eat and explore and scare others.
He lives pretty close to Twoleg place. He likes to explore and be on his own, which is why he is a loner. He lives in his own small shack-hut thing and sleeps up high in the rafters.
FORMER KITTYPETS
Connie / Female / 37 Moons
freezyrat
Connie is a Japanese Bobtail with longer fur. The base color of her coat is white, and she has black and orange splotches over her body. She has pale blue eyes and a fancy red collar with a bell. Connie is very friendly towards everyone she meets, and trusts others far too readily. She misses her Twoleg companions and wishes they would return more than anything in the world. She still lives in her Twoleg nest, which lies to the north. She goes in and out through a hole in the crumbling walls. She has difficulty hunting and fending for herself, having been a house cat before everything happened.
CATS OF STARCLAN
Raggedstar / Female / Age Unknown
freezyrat
Raggedstar is a she-cat on the smaller side with unkempt dark grey fur. She has several huge scars around her throat. Her eyes shine a pale amber. Raggedstar is outspoken and blunt, packing a strong personality for her small size. After her death she became detached from her living clanmates, feeling guilty that she was unable to lead them to their new home. She hardly ever appears to dreaming cats.
Deaths: Drowning, plague, dog attack, rouge attack, hawk attack, heavy fall, food poisoning, body crushed by fallen rubble, death during stillborn kit birth
Rapidstar / Female / 38 moons at death
freezyrat
Rapidstar is a sold black she-cat with silver tips on her ears and tail. The fur on her face is thin, but not completely gone, giving her the appearance of a silver point. She sports a medium build, but her bones still show from malnutrition. Rapidstar is ambitious and unafraid, carelessly putting the lives of others before her own. She is passionate about creating a better environment for her clanmates. This leader's philosophy on lives is that they should be given, not preserved. Each one of her lives was given to aid others.
Family: Hollowstar
Deaths: Swarmed by rats, fox attack, dog attack, starved, sickness, dog attack, rouge attack, final two unknown

(Everything's all set so we can RP whenever!)
Talonsong emerged from the warrior's den, looking up at the late evening sky. It was about time for her to go on patrol, but she still hadn't found another cat to bring with her. She glanced around the camp, trying to find a cat who was free.

Plumdrop was sitting at the far corner of the camp, idly licking her paw and gently rubbing it over her face. Her ears perked up when Talonsong wandered out of the warriors den, but she didn't lift her gaze.

Talonsong noticed the younger warrior and padded over to her, clearing her throat. "Plumdrop?" she asked in an authoritative tone. "I need you to come on border patrol with me." She paused for a moment, her expression blank. "I mean, if you want to.."

"Great!" The warrior started forward, making her way toward the thunderpath at the edge of camp. "We need to check the Flood Home tonight and make sure there's nothing suspicious." She puffed out her chest, trying to make herself look like what she believed was a powerful and capable warrior.

Plumdrop nodded and fell into step beside her. "Sounds good to me." She responded, keeping her eyes focused mostly on the ground in front of her as she walked.

Talonsong led the way, taking awkward sideways glances at the other warrior. She had never really spent any time with Plumdrop before, and didn't know the she-cat very well. "S-SO!" she blurted out, clambering over a smashed piece of concrete. "Any..... toms in your life??" She immediately regretted letting those words leave her mouth, and she cringed as she awaited the reply.

Plumdrop shook her head. "No, I think I keep to myself too much." She responded and flicked her tail. "I don't really have an interest in any of them, and I dont think any of the toms have much of an interest in me either." She leaped a short ways over a small hole in the ground. "What about you?"

Talonsong seemed pleased that she was making conversation. Her gaze shifted to a grasshopper buzzing past for a moment, and she nervously looked back over her shoulder. Just in case. "Uh.. no. I don't have anybody," she replied shortly. "Don't really have that much time, being such a busy warrior and all. Huh!" At this point she was talking herself up for her own personal reassurance.

Plumdrop just slowly nodded her head again. "Understandable." She replied in a quiet tone. Her ear flicked when a rock shifted down from a small pile but she kept walking.

Soon the Flood Home came into view, and Talonsong trotted forward eagerly, climbing onto a large boulder to get a better look. "Hey, there it is!" she called, looking back.

The warrior jumped down, speeding toward the water. Suddenly she skidded to a stop, her jaw parted. "Wait wait-" she stuttered. "I smell something..."

Over by the water was an opossum, drinking from the running water quietly.
Talonsong felt herself relax a bit. "It's just a possum," she said. "It won't bother us if we don't bother it."

"Right." Plumdrop responded. "Let's head in more slowly though, just in case there's something else more dangerous around here." She suggested, taking a step forward.

Talonsong was embarrassed for not thinking of that herself. "R-right! Of course!" She veered closer to Plumdrop as they continued moving.

Plumdrop ventured further towards the Flood Home, trying to keep her footsteps quiet and sniffing at the air every few moments, just to be completely sure there wasn't anything dangerous waiting for them as they got closer.

Another scent washed over Talonsong's jaws and she paused, ears perked. "Plumdrop, there's something else." Her tail was raised with caution as she looked around in alarm, trying to find where it was coming from.

Plumdrop stood close to Talonsong. "I smell it too." She replied in a hushed tone. She crept forward slowly, pressing her belly to the earth as she tried to get closer to where she thought the scent was coming from without being noticed.
