INTRODUCTION
before the dawn of the clan, there were three siblings: Mist, Night, and Shard. Mist was known for her compassion and fierce loyalty. When their parents died, she assumed the role of the protector, the guardian, the leader. Night was known for his wisdom, his spirit, and dedication. With Mist as the leader, he stood by her side, and learned herbs and their healing qualities. With stars in his eyes, and spirits close to his heart, he became a spiritual leader of sorts, meeting their ancestors and unraveling their history. He named their spiritual place, "The Place of Great Stars."
The last sibling, Shard, was known for his cunning, stealth, and ability to fight off any creature that came for his siblings. As siblings do, and with Shard being the youngest, a rivalry formed between he and his siblings. He wanted to be called leader. He wanted the great knowledge that came with The Place of Great Stars... and when he couldn't have it, he left his siblings to be on his own.
moons passed, and Mist and Night learned of the original Clans and Tribes, during their travels. finding they had more in common with the Clans, they decided to create their own. MistClan was born in the fog of a morning by a great lake - a lake so vast they had originally thought it the ocean. the physical incarnation of their ancestors, Cave of Stars, emerged in a dream, and they found it together. a drink from the stream running from the cave to the lake would fill the head with fuzziness and stars, and send one to StarClan, as they found it to be called.
Shard, hearing of the growing alliance, became enraged with jealousy. He entered the camp from above, bounding from a tree into the clearing, and launched an attack on Mist. With the Clan unaware of his entrance, he succeeded in killing her, and pondered what to do with the body. during this time, Night entered Mist's little swath of brambles she had used to create her den, and found the scene. He attacked and killed Shard, and lay with Mist's body.
"Night, do not be afraid," came a voice from the darkness. A spectral feline strode into the light, and touched her nose to his forehead. "Today, your name is Nightstorm." Thunder crashed behind them, as the sky opened and rain began falling. "I am giving your sister eight lives. Her ninth she lost today. From this day forward, she will be called Miststar, and she will rise to become the first leader, and a great one. Give her rest, she will be with us again..."

WELCOME
welcome to MistClan! this is a revamp of my former MistClan, circa 2010 when I had the screenname Tigerlily326. if you remember it GREAT! if not, EVEN BETTER. while it was a popular clan at the time, and reached hundreds of pages, it was quite embarrassing. it was originally like "the clan of love" or something. but no more! on to the rules!
***
RULES
- be respectful! follow the forum rules, and follow my rules! this is a family environment, and we like to have fun here. don't make me turn this car around!!! I WILL turn this car around... etc etc mom voice etc
- be active please, especially if we start a big plot. if you disappear for 3 days without warning I will delete you and you won't be allowed back. why join if you're not going to try? I promise I'm fun to rp with. that's why the first one was successful okaaaaaay
- if you're not a member, please don't spam or post on the thread.... it is pointless. idk if people still kit steal but if you come here to do that, that's fine. you can steal ONE kit at a time, but I roll the dice (literally) and make the final decision if you keep it. to add to that, don't get butthurt if your kit gets stolen. your queen can have more kits. its just a roleplay, and the drama is fun. itsnotthatdeeeeeeep
- be realistic, don't god mod, don't powerplay, don't spotlight. the spotlight cant be on you all the time
- make friends within the rp! come up with your own plots for the clan! you CAN rp stuff with me not here!! just update me on the clan news page okay??? get approval with me first if possible if its something crazy but I GOT U BOO
- keep everything appropriate and clean, if it wasn't described in the books, don't describe it here kthxbai
- okay you might think this is a stupid rule, but literally make your cat description 5 SENTENCES. it will make the page look prettier. and don't bother with a personality. characters develop over time, so develop them over time. this also makes for less "perfect" characters. put "5 sentences" in the other section of the form if you read this
- if you didn't read all the rules, I hate you (kidding) but if you did, UR AWESOME! congrats! here's a cookie *gives cookie*

TERRITORYThe Clan territory is in a nook of wild in the forest around Lake Norman, North Carolina. Into the Clan territory itself, not many twolegs venture - however, if you know Lake Norman, you know that there are trails and twoleg paths. Most of the land within the Clan's borders is a swath of trees; there are some natural and twoleg-made creeks/streams running through it, and most dump out into the lake itself.
The Training Hollow
In a sandy patch of land by the lake, at the edge of the territory, there is a dip where warriors take their apprentices to train. Queens often bring their kits of four moons or older here as well, to watch, and sun on the beach. There are trees surrounding both sides of the dip, but the dip itself is a bare, sandy patch of ground.
Twolegplace
Most of the homes are on the other side of the lake; however, there are some campgrounds, visitors' areas, etc. outside of Clan territory. There are also a few homes, but they are a few miles away. There are two twoleg hiking paths running through the Clan territory, and they connect at the Visitor's Center outside of Clan territory.
Cave of Stars
The Cave of Stars is actually outside of Clan territory and almost on the other side of the lake. It is in the side of a hill by the edge of the lake. About a day's journey from camp, cats who travel to speak with StarClan must cross a Thunderpath, one twoleg hiking trail, and an "abandoned" black bear cave.
Camp
Between two trees; one fallen, and one split in half by lightning, is the entrance to the camp. Moss and lichen now grow around these two dead trees, sheltering the camp from view. The camp itself lies in a dried up stream.
- The leader's den is a hollowed out tree stump, big enough for one or two cats to sleep in. The outside is called the High Trunk, and at the top is where the leader makes announcements.
- The warriors' den is a large bush that sprouts white flowers in Newleaf, and can fit up to 10 cats in the middle, and 20 cats around the edges. The middle, is of course reserved for senior warriors.
- The apprentices' den is another, smaller bush, with swaths of brambles around it. It can fit up to 15 cats.
- The nursery, or queens' den, was warrior-made. Enforced with branches, brambles, and leaves for extra warmth, you can not see into the nursery, and the cats inside can not see outside of the nursery. It is the closest den to the leader's den, and is between it and the warriors' den for extra protection.
- The medicine cat's den is a small crack in the wall of the dried up stream. The "shelves" inside were made by Nightstorm himself. The medicine den has two passages and a middle; one passage for the medicine cat's den, one passage for the apprentice's den, and the middle has room for around 3 patients.
- The elders' den is a large, hollowed out body of a tree, laying horizontal on the ground. One side is filled with leaves, twigs, and brambles to fortify and keep the elders warm in leaf-bare. The other side is the entrance. The elders' den can fit about 8 cats, 10 if they all slept packed in for warmth.

Strands of yellow, pink, and orange exploded into the sky as the sun began its journey upward. The new day was hot, the humidity causing everything to feel even warmer than a usual Greenleaf day... and stickier.
Miststar flicked her ear, and twitched her whiskers in disgust. What a muggy day. I feel like my fur is all stuck together. She sighed, and rose from her nest, stretching her limbs and bristling her pelt to feel less like a sponge. Padding out of the entrance in the back of her den, she peeked around the corner to see if any of her warriors were awake yet. Her eyes scanned the clearing, and she sat by the High Trunk, wrapping her tail around her paws.
---
Sandeyes bounded into camp, carrying two mice from his jaws. His eyes were bloodshot, and his fur was rumpled, as if he hadn't gotten a good night's rest. He sauntered over to the fresh kill pile - which these days was never empty - and dropped the mice, blinking furiously for a moment. I'm so tired. I didn't sleep a heartbeat last night.

Hearing the word "patrol," Sandeyes nodded at Pearpaw. "Pearpaw and I would love to join a dawn patrol," he meowed, beckoning at the apprentice with his tail to follow him. He padded up beside of Ashlight, and also dipped his head to the leader. If I go on dawn patrol, I can rest after.
Miststar purred a greeting, blinking warmly at the waking cats. "Good morning Ashlight, good morning Sandeyes. I would love to actually lead this patrol myself, if I may. I need to stretch my legs!" She paused. "It would do well to show Pearpaw the borders again, yes?" She looked at the small she cat.

[ sorry I disappeared! I miss him a lot. he's in japan and i'm in the us ]
Sandeyes purred in amusement, and watched as Miststar's whiskers quivered.
"Come now, child. Just Miststar will do." She smiled at the apprentice, and flicked her tail. "Alright everyone, let's take a trip down to the training hollow. I want to see if the foxes we found there have moved on." She stood, and bounded to the camp entrance, turning to tilt her head at the other cats to follow.
Sandeyes looked to Pearpaw. "Stay close. We haven't seen foxes at the training hollow in almost a moon, but a cat your size could easily be overpowered by a fox." He padded after the leader, and dipped his head as he passed Ashlight.

(Oh dang. No worries! I’m in no rush so enjoy talking to him  ) Pearpaw felt a small wave of embarrassment wash over her as Miststar spoke. She gave a small nod. “Oh ok.” She said giving her fur a quick, flustered lick. She followed alongside her mentor and looked up at him as he spoke about the foxes. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a fox before...” She admitted with a thoughtful look. “What are they like?” Ashlight nodded to Sandeyes and let him go first with Pearpaw. He fell to the back of the small patrol. He listened as the two spoke about foxes and he lashed his tail. “They’re nasty creatures....” He muttered but didn’t go into further detail. |

Miststar purred, and swiveled her ears back to listen to her clanmates.
Sandeyes looked down at his apprentice and bristled slightly, remembering all the times foxes had ruined lives and destroyed clan territory. "They bark and look like dogs.. but think like cats. Sneaky buggers. One of the meanest animals we have in our territory - and they do it for fun, it seems." He sighed. "Hopefully they've moved on. Last time we sprayed that area pretty good and left our scent everywhere. It smelled like Miststar for a week!"
Miststar chuckled. "I wouldn't quite say a week, Sandeyes." She paused. "Pearpaw, young one, what do you smell?" She stopped in her tracks, and smiled over at the apprentice. They were deep into MistClan territory, and still had quite a ways to go before reaching the edge of the lake.

"Yes, you definitely don't," said Sandeyes. He opened his jaws to taste the air. The warm scent of small bodies greeted his scent glands, and he could taste the scent of the old squirrel as well. The salty lake smell left a bitter taste in his throat, and he closed his jaws quickly.
"What else, Pearpaw?" he pressed gently, tilting his head in the direction of a small bush a number of tail-lengths away. The leaves rustled as a small animal scurried underneath.
Miststar, distracted, whipped her tail playfully at Ashlight. "It was about three days," she insisted with a wry grin.

Sandeyes's gaze lit up with pride, and he nodded, fluffing up his dusty brown fur. "Breakfast," he replied. "Are you hungry? If you catch it, you might as well eat it since we're on border patrol. Remember your crouch? Light pawsteps for a mouse, right?"
Miststar bristled. "If we have to take down a fox to send a message to the rest..." she paused. "Well, I would do anything to keep my Clan safe." she sighed, turning her attention back to Pearpaw and watching her carefully.

Miststar nodded gently, approval bright in her eyes. "Good job, my dear."
Sandeyes looked at Miststar, the tip of his tail twitching. "Yes, well done," he grunted, slightly grudgingly. "But what did you do wrong?" He looked down at the apprentice and her mouse, and sat, curling his tail around his paws and giving her his best 'teacher' look. It probably wasn't extremely convincing, given his bloodshot eyes and the yawn he had to stifle quickly.

Sandeyes grunted. "As long as you realize," he meowed gently. "We will work on that some later. Either today after some rest, or tomorrow."
Miststar twitched her whiskers at the tom, but said nothing to him. "Ashlight," she began, licking her paw and drawing it over her ear, "After Pearpaw has her breakfast, would you care to lead the patrol? I'm going to take the back side on the last half of the journey." She looked over at the gray tom, and tilted her head in question.
[ should there be a fox attack? I feel like Miststar needs to lose another life cx ]

Pearpaw nodded to Sandeyes. “Alright.” She agreed before relaxing to eat her mouse. She didn’t realize how hungry she had been until taking the first bite. She licked her chops and continued to eat up the mouse. Ashlight turned his head to face Miststar as she addressed him. “Sure, if you don’t want to.” He agreed calmly but there was a small gleam of eagerness in his eyes. The gray tabby wasn’t ambitious but he did like to take charge of small things like patrols from time to time, especially since joining the clan. Once Pearpaw finished her prey, Ashlight moved to the front of the patrol. “Let’s go. We’re almost there.” He meowed before beginning to walk onwards towards the training hallow. (Oh dear xD I’m good with having a fox attack. Plus it’ll add a little bit of action c; ) [ I enjoy killing off my characters for some reason cx ] Sandeyes fell in step behind Ashlight, beckoning with his tail for Pearpaw to follow. He sniffed the air. It was a calm Greenleaf day, and this let him fall into a sense of ease... peace. Although he was tired, he was glad he agreed to come on patrol - and couldn't wait for an afternoon nap. The sunlight streamed between the dense canopy of tree leaves, and the patches of warmth made him smile a very, very small smile. Miststar purred as Ashlight agreed, and waited behind for a moment so she could take up the rear. They were very close to the training hollow; she could smell the stale scents of excitement, and also the smells of little warm bodies rustling through the undergrowth. The scent of lakewater overpowered all of this, however, and it brought her joy. Swimming was a task she quite enjoyed, and there were a few islands close to the shore where one could lounge about all day. Of course, with leadership duties, she rarely had time to do so, especially as the Clan grew. She found herself falling farther behind as she daydreamed, and missed the snapping of twigs behind her entirely. |

And that’s fine with me xD)
