(Some have asked me for a greater explanation of how the power usage in the Rp works. So here's some...details, I guess.
Think of a 10 point scale. In this context use least tired, most energy, can use full power as a 10. Use no power, very tired, so low in power the cat is near death as 0.
Most cats, at complete rest and having not used their power for several days, with no harm having come to them have an energy level of 10. Each tiny use of their power may use 1 energy. For example, a speed cat sprints for ten minutes with their power, or a telepathic cat sends a small message to another telepathic car. They've used 1 energy and are down to level 9. This will build back up to 20 very quickly, probably in just a few hours. With food. Water, and rest, they will feel completely recharged. Think of a battery, if you will.
Now they can continue using their power. The more difficult tasks they attempt, the higher the ability level (such as using advanced abilities, if they can do so) will zap energy from them very quickly. With the very strongest cats, they may only be able to continuously use their powers for a few hours at most before they are so drained they pass out, or even die. This is if it is a strong, experienced cat. A younger, not quite as strong cat could only use weaker abilities (beginner and possibly intermediate) for a little over an hour before they are sufficiently drained of power to energy level 2 or less, and have no more energy to use their powers and may not even be able to run, walk, or stand. This would include most apprentices and young warriors, less than 20 moons or so.
Now what happens if a cat is using really strong abilities, like advanced, or have a rare power like shifting or dream walking? They use these energy points rapidly. An advanced ability for something like fire or ice would drain someone from a 10 to a 5-7 with just one action, depending on their age. Either way, they are getting tired very quickly drained of power. For this reason, of a cat is going to be fighting for say, more than 15 minutes, they stick with intermediate and beginning abilities. If it is slide or death and they are able, they may use an advanced ability, once possibly twice, to evade danger. Just this will not last long at all, or the cat will face death. And remember, while most warriors around 30 moons and Up may start being able to perform advanced abilities only some young warriors and strong apprentices fan and this had to be discussed with me before it happens. So, yeah. Any questions?)

(Nope, sounds good :3) (Would you think Cougarstripe would get advanced/master abilities? I don't mind if he just sticks to intermediate though...)

(Then he would very likely be able to perform many of the advanced abilities, if not all. But I would take energy out of him, of course. So he wouldn't do it all that often, only to practice on occasion and to use it when it was really needed to defend his clan. He would need ample food, water, and rest after it though.)

(While I'm not planning to do it any time soon, I'm considering having Thornwillow try and work towards master abilities, only to die from the attempt, feels like a fitting end to her)

(Yes Soulpaw is already because it's part of the plot. And Crowflowrr secretly resents him for it, is guilty. Just ya know. To add that in lol. Yes almost anyone at that age could do advanced abilities, save for a handful of weak cats. Almost all will be able to perform advanced abilities eventually, so long as they practice. So 25% of the cats in the clan will be able to perform some master abilities when they get older, if they are strong enough and practice. So everyone can pick anywhere from 1 to a few of their characters that will one day be able to have master abilities, and roleplay them as being strong. It is up to you who you want, Lost. As you have more characters, you can have 2 or 3. I have a handful myself, along with Sum, Cress, etc. because they have SO many cats. If anyone wants to request their cat to be able to have master abilities and has yet to do so, make sure you message me

(Okay :3 I think I would want to have both Cougarstripe and Flintpaw to get master abilities in the future. Do I need to message you lol XD Cougarstripe would probably be working towards Master abilities soon)

(Arcshatter's mostly a weaker cat, so he probably wouldn't be able to handle doing much of any advanced abilities, Dog is...Dog. Dunno about Diamond yet, Swancall mostly hovers in the intermediate area, and Palewhisper's starting to improve after taking time training)

I know I want celestial to have master abilities, and I think icicle is working towards it as well))

(No you don't that's fine Diamond is a cat that hovers on Advanced- she's not as powerful as she portrays, or wishes to be. That's something she's bitter about. But she's very smart and clever and manipulatilative and knows how to get what she wants)

{Wrenpaw} Apprentice she-cat | 7 moons | siren Wrenpaw is a pretty light brown spotted tabby she-cat. Her fur is medium in length and her figure is lithe, yet muscular. Her eyes are bright green. She has dark brown paws and tailtip and "mask" around her eyes. The she-cat is kind and gentle. It is in her nature to watch over everyone and make sure her loved ones are safe. She is feisty however, and an inner fire burns so strong within that it threatens to burn anyone who crosses her. The female has a silver tongue and is a diplomat with words, and all physic cats know her aura speaks true. She is noble and refuses to kill or hurt others in cold blood, saying it is without honor. The female is sweet and brings presents to cats she loves as a way to say thanks for loving me too. The she-cat can be sensitive and her mood swings back and forth. She is loyal to a fault and if anyone betrays her it feels like clawmarks inside of her that leave deep scars. She often has her head in the clouds imagining a better life and a better future for herself. The war has been taking a toll on her and everything she's seen under Darkstar's reign has left scars in her mind. She can't unsee the death and destruction and cries at night. The she-cat tries to think positively as much as she can but she can't shake the worry and fear for her future. She loves to sing songs and often does to cheer herself up. DARKSTAR'S CAMP (UPPER) OTHER: Please don't edit this.

(Sorry was at early dinner/ late lunch. Abywaysi was waiting for Tundraclaw to reply, so did u all wanna Rp something else in the meantime? We could do a select group still in the Upper Camp, or some lower camp cats on a hunt? Something we don't usually do, like maybe...idk maybe fishing in the ocean? )

( also, somethings will be edited. I always start with he/she for example, also I have to add in what form of tabby. There is no such thing as a plain tabby cat. There's only stripped spotted, marbled, or ticked. These are just some things I always change.)
