Welcome!
Hello there! I'm ❴ ғα∂ιηg ✦ яεαℓιтү ❵ , but please, call me Aaron! Thank you for stopping by my little roleplay and I really hope you join!
This has been an abstract idea I've had since 2013 to make a roleplay involving seasons and with the help of ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 I got a more concrete idea of what I wanted and actually made it!

About!
Horaeclan is ruled by the gods/goddesses of the seasons that are constantly battling for power.
Whichever season deity is winning, is which season it is, meaning spring can be followed by winter, or autumn by spring, etc. There are different ranks for cats with different specialties and depending on the season. They are:
Trackers (Spring)
Warriors (Summer)
Hunters (Autumn)
Guards (Winter)
Because of these different ranks tied to the deities there is sometimes internal conflict within the clan.
The season deities will act as Horaeclan's Starclan. There is no set place for communication, although the leader and medicine cat will travel outside of clan territory to try and clear their head to make for an easier connection.
The territory is large, almost as big as four regular clans' territories combined. There is a small mountain range to the north, a lake borders the south-east with a river flowing through the territory to the south-west; the rest of the territory is forest.
The camp is located in the northern part of the territory, it sits where a mountain cliff meets the forest.
Since there is no other clans, there is a meeting for every seven sunrises instead of every full moon.

Background!
Horae is the (greek) goddess of seasons, the clan is named after her due to the seasons being a large part of this roleplay.
There are four minor gods and goddesses under her that represent the four seasons. They are:
Eiar (Spring) - a short-haired pale gray tabby she-cat with light green eyes
Theros (Summer) - a hairless pink tom with large bat-like ears and bright blue eyes
Phthinoporon (Autumn) - a bobtailed calico she-cat with brown eyes
Cheimon (Winter) - a long-haired white tom with vibrant icy eyes

Ranks!
Leader:
Dappledstar - sleek, red tinted light brown tabby she-cat with green eyes who has a bad habit of worrying too much, especially about the fighting of the gods, she relies heavily on the medicine cat for assurance that all will be okay and to make sure nothing bad is upcoming; the job of being leader and stopping internal conflicts within the clan drains her, but it is also the only thing that brings her joy as she loves the clan dearly; she is on her sixth life
Deputy:
name -description
Medicine Cat:
Alderfly - a ruddy somali with dark eyes and gray fur lining her back, forehead, and tail; the gray has black accents near the tips of her fur. She's fairly young at 28 moons, with a lithe build beneath her longer fur; she stands at the average height for a she-cat, but has shorter legs than most
Trackers:
Ashwhisker - large, light gray tabby she-cat with dark whiskers and milky eyes; she is blind and so many of the clan steer away from her because they don't know what to say or how to interact with her despite all her wanting is a friend; her blindness was developed as an apprentice when she got a double eye infection that could not be treated at the time due to herb shortage; because she is blind her other senses are heightened which makes it easy to overhear things and makes her an excellent tracker; she is very anxious and shy at first, but once she feels comfortable with someone she can be quite snarky
Warriors:
Mightymouse - average sized white tom with amber eyes and gray patches, one is unevenly placed on his muzzle; he wobbles quite a bit when he walks but is still a fairly good fighter despite that; he also has issues with his eyes focusing properly, he can follow movement but it's delayed, he is better on the offensive than defensive because of this; it is hard to tell what he is thinking, much less know what to expect from him, his interactions are always very different than the ones before
Stonestreak - a silvery-gray she-cat with a black "dorsal stripe" running directly down her back, stopping at the tip of her tail; she is a lithe she-cat with short cropped fur close to her skin and could be considered attractive by some toms, though her bright greens eyes can be somewhat imposing; though it has healed, a scar is still visible on her chin which as an apprentice she claimed she got from a mountain lion, that is not true whatsoever, she tripped and a stick scratched her chin, eventually scarring; the she-cat can be quite clumsy, and for that reason she has one splayed paw which usually trips her up, it never healed properly as an apprentice; it isn't hard to see that she is quite accident prone, though she seems to be content as a warrior she is in truth very ambitious and wants to have more in her life than just being a warrior, and eventually a queen; she is a bit competitive and gets a bit upset when she loses, though she attempts to not show it;, and bantering with others is one of her favorite pastimes, she always enjoys teasing her fellow warriors; she can be slightly squeamish when it comes to fighting, though she does what she has to in order to survive
Hunters:
Swiftwind - small, sleek, cream colored tom with brown markings on his paws, tail, muzzle, and ears,he has light green eyes and strong but slender legs; he is highly energetic and considered to be the fastest in the clan; he got the name Swiftkit when he was born due to his sleek appearance and how his mother's delivery was very speedy, even for having two kits, (the other being his brother, Lightbuck) the medicine cat had remarked at the time that it was one of the most swift and lightest delivery she had assisted so his mother named him and his brother after those words; he got the full name Swiftwind for obvious reasons - he was astonishingly fast; he is a very easy going tom, he's always playing around and making jokes
Hazelfawn - a golden-brown tabby she-cat with a white muzzle; at twenty-four moons, she is still a fairly young she-cat, and the aura of youth she gives off is further heightened by her small stature and wide yellowish-green eyes
Guards:
Lightbuck - large, muscular, light brown tabby tom with a white speckled chest and blue eyes; his stature is very different than that of his brother's, where Swiftwind jokes around and makes things fun and light-hearted, he is quite the opposite, despite being given the name Lightkit as birth; he is anything but light, he is very solemn and serious and very well respected among the clan for his rationality skill and ability to make quick and effective decisions for the good of the clan
Mistheart - a jet black she-cat, except for her left ear which has one thin stripe of light gray running up the side. She has a very thick pelt, and sheds a lot; a small light pink scar runs down the top of her right leg, to her paw, she got it in a battle in as an apprentice, her first one; she's a petite she-cat, quite a bit smaller than normal with emerald colored eyes
Queens & kits:
Lithestream - very pretty, small, sleek silver she-cat with bright green eyes; she is very quiet unless she feels like an injustice has been done, whether to her or someone else; the most important thing to her is loyalty and she believes anything that goes against clan law of defies the wishes of the gods is treason; she hopes to raise er kits with these values on her own as the father is unknown (normally a tracker)
Apprentices:

Elders:

Loners & Rogues:
Juno - small, long furred black she-cat with bright amber eyes and a berry pink nose; she is a strange character who is rogue and does not disclose much about her past but small bits and pieces here and there; she acts very odd at times to say the least; one minute she will be buddy-buddy with you and the next she'll be at your throat
Hero - a long legged, hairless gray tom with large bat like ears and vivid blue eyes; despite being a loner, he is very faithful to the season gods, but especially worships the god of summer, Theros, who he believes himself to be descended from; while he himself does not have any direct ties to the clan, his mother's father was once a member and he is aware of this and the clan's existence; he desires to join the clan in hopes of getting closer to Theros
Dappledstar - sleek, red tinted light brown tabby she-cat with green eyes who has a bad habit of worrying too much, especially about the fighting of the gods, she relies heavily on the medicine cat for assurance that all will be okay and to make sure nothing bad is upcoming; the job of being leader and stopping internal conflicts within the clan drains her, but it is also the only thing that brings her joy as she loves the clan dearly; she is on her sixth life
