Would I be allowed to choose which RPer can take place of deputy / leader during the journey or would it be a first come, first serve sort of deal? Additionally, to continue with that idea, would the RP creators be playing every leader up until the Moonpool equivalent is found?
I feel like starting right as the flood begins is a good place because we could probably get at least a couple good days' worth of roleplay before jumping right into things. This might give us a chance to form relationships with our members and give them a chance to share their own ideas as well. Personally, I feel like this might make everyone feel more integral to the plot -- especially since survival depends greatly on our basic warrior characters. And those are the characters that often get ignored or glossed over in most roleplays.

Yeah the idea was to start roughly when the flood was beginning and then go through the cats making their way out of the water, figuring out what happened, finding the others, regrouping, talking it over, probably having to move camp a few times, and eventually deciding to move. I figured there's no point in starting very far before the flood (maybe like the morning of, at the earliest), because as I said there's not really much of a point in struggling to introduce characters just to kill them off- essentially, every character that enters the rp will be a survivor of the flood (tho having StarClan characters that died during it for backstory impact and to guide the living wouldn't be bad). But as for actually roleplaying, I feel like you can kind of start where you're comfortable- if you want to start from the morning and narrating their activities until the flood that's fine. If you wanna start with the flood rushing in, that's fine. If you wanna start with them coming to their senses after the flood has mostly settled, that's fine. As long as we're all roughly in the some place (timeline wise) within a couple posts. Then, the cats will have to find up with the other survivors, eventually all meet up in one place (which might take a little while) and then it might take them a couple days to realize that the flood waters aren't going down any time soon and they might need to leave. And from there, it'll probably take them a little longer still (and quite possibly more deaths) to finally decide once and for all that they need to go (that, possibly coupled with signs from StarClan). So, even though we'll start with the flood/right after the flood, there will still be quite a bit of buildup before the Journey actually begins (giving us plenty of time to become acquainted with our characters, and make a plan for the Journey. And then the Journey will give us time to come up with the new territories).
As for leadership, you're certainly not required to play the leader for your Clan, at any point. As I said what with the dead leaders, you're not even required to HAVE a Clan leader. As for who takes the roles of leader, deputy, or medicine cat, it's up to you whether you want to take that role, let the first qualified person to join have it, or let those characters be selected in the roleplay. It's also up to you if you don't want to even have any of those roles filled from the get-go- since so many cats will have died, it's pretty likely that some Clans will be starting the roleplay off with no leader, no deputy, or no medicine cat, or even two or all three of those cats having been killed off (a Clan with no leader, deputy, or medicine cat would be in bad shape indeed....). And, of course, even if some of these important cats survive the flood, there will be plenty of hardships afterwards, and on the Journey, and in the new territories that could kill them off and leave the Clan in bad shape. I know WindClan certainly won't be starting off easy, that's for sure....

So, what would we still need then? We know we're gonna start the roleplay with one main page where all the Clans roleplay... so should we do allegiances by each person just claiming a spot for their Clan's allegiances? That seems like the best bet. In that case, how should we do StarClan? Should there be a separate page for deceased cats, or list them at the bottom of each Clan's allegiances, or have a separate post for StarClan cats? For that matter, we'll need to come up with a layout as well. I have some ideas, so I could provide a couple examples, but anyone else is welcome to submit ideas as well! We'll also need a set of rules, which anyone is welcome to draft out and we can vote to submit additional rules, or omit or rewrite ones we're not entirely satisfied with.
Another thing is the joining forms/info. Do we want to have longer descriptions that go into detail about appearance, explain personalities, include histories, etc? Or would we want to have a more concise appearance description (more like the books), perhaps with a short personality description or even just traits? Possibly supplemented with an image (though, we could include images for longer descriptions as well)? Also, do we want to require, or encourage, the use of roleplay profiles? Or do you guys prefer not to use them at all?
Personally, I'm in favor of using medium-length descriptions (a couple sentences for appearance, a couple for personality, and maybe some history, but not going into a crazy amount of detail) and requiring a picture as well, though I don't have a lot of preference over whether said image should be a photograph or art (probably from one of the warrior character creators out there). Photographs, obviously, force the cats to stay more realistic, since you have to find an image that can adequately reflect what you describe... but art allows people to make their characters a bit more creative and unique. Of course, I could also understand if you would prefer not to use images at all. Finally, I'm somewhat in favor of roleplay profiles, but I probably wouldn't require them, though I could understand if you would want to, for consistency. It would definitely limit the number of characters people could have and manage, but that's not necessarily a bad thing since the Clans are supposed to have very small populations after the flood (personally I'm thinking maybe a maximum of like, 10 cats per Clan after the flood. Apprentices, kits, and elders included).

Mkay here's what I'm thinking. We should start on the morning before the flood so we can stall for new joiners. Like I said, people are less likely to join if they feel an rp has had important plot bits because fitting new characters in becomes clunky and awkward. For RiverClan, I was planning on it loosing both it's deputy and medicine cat as well as Minnowstar loosing one of his lives.
I know that Jas was interested in doing coding and she's more experienced than me, so I'm fine if she handles it. I can, however, whip up a quick joining form if you wanted, just give me a minute or two. I could add a faceclaim section too, if you were leaning towards it, but again, I wouldn't require anyone to have one.
Please don't require to profiles. Just no. I hate them with a burning passion. I'd rather use post layouts. Like don't ban them or anything, just please, please don't require them.
I am also strongly against throwing a limit on how many cats a clan can have. Like yes, I get what you're trying to do, but it's just not a smart move. People are 10x less likely to join because of a limit. They don't like taking away options for others, and you'd better bet no one will ever claim the last place in the clan. Plus it's really unfair to those who take longer writing forms. Like again, I get that this is going to affect these clans badly, but if you really want the rp to last a long time you need a lot of joiners. I just don't see that happening with a limit.

Well, the idea of starting with the flood is that it would be less awkward to have new cats showing up. Because instead of them having to fit themselves into the everyday workings of the Clan, they can show up at any point after the flood and fit in neatly as "hey guys I'm actually alive." But I can understand wanting to start shortly before, for build up. Like I had said, I think that's more of a preference on how far before you really want to build up/narrate, as long as everyone's in the same place before very long.
As far as faceclaims/images go, I typically prefer all or none (for consistency). So if we were to include images, it might not be best to strictly require someone to have them, but to very much encourage it. As for the roleplay profiles, noted. I wasn't really in favor of requiring them anyhow, just saying that I was okay with it if that's what everyone else really wanted to do. But, evidently it's not, so we won't.
As for the limit, that wouldn't really so much be a hard limit (so it's not like each Clan just has 10 slots and that's it, period), but overall I would say ~10 cats would be about the max, give or take a few- whatever seems realistic, and whatever number we reach before the Clans start their journey. But, even if we only had 10 cats in each Clan, that's still 50 characters across all five Clans, not to mention cats outside the Clan (and I'm sure the cats will meet plenty on their journey, and likely adopt a few). So even if every person has like ~5 different characters, that's still like 10+ different roleplayers. And, obviously, the Clans' populations will grow as the roleplay does, accommodating for new joiners. But, after the Clans leave the territories, new joiners would have to mostly join as cats outside the Clan, or as new kits, anyways, to prevent that weird "now we have to pretend this new character has always existed and didn't just randomly appear out of nowhere" situation, because that just starts to become more and more awkward the longer the roleplay goes on and the more involved and tight-knit the Clans become.

Well there's a quick form if you want to use it. The faceclaim should auto cut pictures into the frame, but they should be square if you want perfect circles. It's monochrome right now, but colors can change to better fit the coding later on.
Alright then, low-key was thinking about making two cats per clan but I should proably limit that to one now. At least it'll be quicker to draw up all the character referances.

Generally, I don't include many rules, but with how this roleplay is meant to be a tight-knit plot... It might require some more in-depth stuff. We're definitely wanting a rule about literacy, correct? So... how are we defining it? Amount of paragraphs? Amount of lines? Word count? And how strict will that be?
I'm fine with a character limit because honestly I always get myself into trouble. I was already figuring I would only be able to handle the cats in my own Clan. Maybe one other Clan. But one cat in each Clan might be more manageable. I do, however, see what Penguin is talking about. A lot of people generally prefer to be allowed at least 2 per Clan. That's mainly for the sake of being able to make one of each gender. Because... we might end up with a million she-cats or a million toms, with few of the other gender. I think it'd be reasonable to say "two cats per Clan."
I kind of like the idea of ShadowClan being left with no major roles filled. That way it's kind of chaotic and gives me time to choose who I'd like to lead during the journey.
I'm fine with Roleplay profiles, but I don't prefer them. So if people want to use them, cool, that's fine by me. But I think post layouts, as Penguin suggested, looks much better overall. But that may just be because it's similar to how we had to code things on the original WCF cx I think the profiles are a good idea in theory, but I wish there wasn't a limit.
I'm totally cool with creating a layout if that's what everyone prefers. Just give me an idea of what we're wanting this roleplay to look like? Like color scheme and such? Or an image I could pull a color palette from. I may change around the character sheet's appearance / layout a little bit. It'll mostly depend on the alignment chosen for the text / how smaller descriptions look with a face claim.
Personally, I'm fine cropping and editing my joiners' pictures to fit into the circle if need be. Sometimes things can appear stretched or cut off and I'd like to avoid that personally. Additionally, I would be fine searching for pictures that represent what someone has described. That wouldn't be as cohesive as using a warrior cat generator, however. So honestly, that final decision is up to Gargoyle in my opinion.

Hmmm. Well, if we assume that each Clan originally had, let's say, about 30-35 cats (that seems normal for when the Clans are doing well, according to a quick glance at a few books' allegiances). So that leaves 20-25 adult cats. And if we assume the flood kills off (for good measure) about half of the Clan, but lean towards it mostly killing off "weaker" cats (young or very old) then you lose ~10 kits/young apprentices/elders, and about 5-10 warriors. So, I guess it would still make sense to have around 15 cats per Clan, and still have the flood have been absolutely devastating, especially if most of the characters are adult cats (warriors or older apprentices), and very few kits, young apprentices, or elders survived (though, people rarely play kits or elders from the get-go anyhow). So, if many people do two cats per Clan, that could probably be manageable with ~15 characters per Clan (for a total of 75+). Is that a bit more satisfactory for you, penguin? I want to keep the populations pretty low from the start, but I wouldn't want to limit anyone too much. And if we assume the Clans were thriving beforehand, then 15 characters is still a pretty big reduction from a Clan's presumed "original" number. As for the character sheet and the layout, I like them both! I might make some small adjustments when I get the chance, but any changes I make we don't have to use. (edit: nvm I can't make any adjustments to the layout because it's an image and not coding in this case lol) As for color scheme, since it will be a page initially dedicated to all five Clans, I feel as though the base color scheme should probably be something more neutral which wouldn't be associated in particular with any Clan. So, grays, browns, or possibly dark, murky blues (to associate with the flood waters). Though, we could also change the text color for the allegiances, so that the main layout color scheme stays the same but you can sort of tell which Clan you're looking at, in which case the base color would probably be best as a grayish color, since that goes with anything. So like, for example, the main color scheme would be gray, but then ThunderClan could have its accent color be green instead of a different shade of gray, while RiverClan's could be blue, and so on. If that makes sense lol. I'll try to give a short example of what I mean when I mess with the layouts. Also, if you want to see any of the layouts I've done, you can find them here. Just in case there's any little tricks or elements of any of them you'd want to possibly merge with Cas's design. To answer Cas's other questions: As for the rules, yeah, I agree that less is more. For the most part I think it would be pretty basic, straight-forward stuff. You know, no powerplaying, be polite, try to be somewhat active, ask before major plots, etc. etc. On any roleplay I've made I typically always include some kind of stance on literacy, but I tend not to be too strict on it except in special cases. Personally, I'm not real picky about post length as long as a person uses pretty good grammar/writing skills, portrays their character well, and can actually contribute to the action/plot/interaction in some way. If someone can manage to get out a couple of well-written paragraphs that are nice to read and give a lot, nice, but I also don't like reading 2-3 paragraphs of rambling narration just for the character's only actual action to be, like, taking 2 steps or saying "yes." So I tend not to put, like, a strict limit and instead it's like, an average of around 1-3 paragraphs, but more or less depending on the situation. In the end, it matters more that the plot moves along than making sure it takes at exactly 2 paragraphs per post to do that. Which is kind of why I put this at "semi-lit/lit" because like. I would err on the side of slightly longer posts, but I wouldn't require them, and only insofar as they're still concise enough to not feel like you're wading through meaningless walls of text. If that makes sense lmao. As for a character limit, I'm again reluctant to strictly give a hard "limit" as to the number of characters you can have. However, if we go with ~2 cats per Clan, we could always give a soft limit of 10 cats- so, you could distribute that evenly and have ~2 per Clan, or you could have fewer/none in one Clan and have more in another. Which doesn't seem unreasonable. Also, if people have to sort of, limit how many characters they can use, I feel as though they'll mostly focus on characters they really do want to play and put effort into, and thus the Clans won't become flooded with half-forgotten side characters that don't really have plots or get played much, like they do a lot of the time. Essentially, it's much easier to make sure all characters can get some screen time when each person has a finite number of prominent characters who are important to their own stories, than tons of minor characters that are there more or less only for the convenience of other characters. But, as I said, it would certainly be a soft limit. So it's not like, you can only have 10 cats period, and if you want, for example, to claim a kit that's gonna be born you have to kill off another character, or if you wanna make a rogue you have to get rid of a Clan cat. As for the last few points. So, definitely no encouragement or requirement for roleplay profiles. Sounds fine to me. I may use them, I may not. We'll see. As for images, it seems we're mostly in favor of using them. In that case, should we use photographs or generators? I would say we should opt for one or the other, not a mixture, for consistency. Because it's just kind of... jarring... to be going back and forth between photos and art from one character to the next, I feel like. I don't really have a preference as to which one, though, because both have their advantages. And as far as shape goes, it would be easy to make either into a square- for the generators, when you screenshot the image, you just make it a square, and for photos, you just find a photo that's mostly square (Bing images even has a filter for it). I suppose the one main disadvantage of the generator, however, is that some people either don't know how to screenshot or can't on whatever device they're using, but pretty much anyone can access photos and copy the image location. So idk.

I'm fine with either choice of pictures. It honestly doesn't matter much to me. I would like to have everyone either use circular pictures or square pictures. I think a mixture of the two would look strange.
Those color palettes seem like a good enough idea to me. I'll see about getting an example up some time tonight that everyone can mess around with. I'm sure we can all come up with something we agree on~
And ah, that wasn't meant to be for this roleplay. That's why I just took a picture cx It was just an example of something I'm currently trying out.

I feel like the limit of 2 cats per clan for a person works pretty well, although we might want to say a limit of 5 per clan? I'm not saying someone's going to have 10 cats in a clan, but if you wanted to keep numbers lower I don't want one person rping the whole clan if you get me. As for an actual clan cat limit, I feel like the best thing to do is be tentative. A tentative limit of ~10 warriors per clan is much better than only having 10 warriors. That way, if more people want to join, we can either a. easily let them in without killing someone else or b. kill someone else in the flood. I don't want people to join with characters just to watch them die, but like... maybe we should have some? Like just to maybe pad out the ranks a bit before the flood so the actual deaths hit harder. Maybe if people want some of their cat's family members to die in the flood, they could make them but like with a shorter joining form? Also, if people aren't really roleplaying a character a lot and aren't as interested in them anymore we could kill those characters then too. I know I might have some of my characters die, especially because I tend to make a lot of characters and then only rp a few. So like, then to free up spaces I could kill off the ones I'm not using as much, Or something, I don't want people to feel like their characters have to die but like, I want someone to die tho
I like the idea of new joiners on the journey being rouges/kittypets the clans run into, it's a really inventive way to deal with the issue of having random new cats pop up who've been there all along. Just be sure to mention that, because otherwise people will probably just join with clan members! We might also want to say no rouges/kittypets before the journey, seeing as the clans would probably just leave them behind when they moved.
I'm weird, because for people I like drawings better but for animals I like photos more. So if we have to choose, I'd say photos of cats. I enjoy the generators as much as everyone else, but a lot of the time they have large watermarks or just a lot of blank white space, as opposed to a picture which is more full. Also those generators really aren't any better in terms of accuracy than pictures. You're limited by whatever features the creator put in, as opposed to finding a single picture in the vast sea of cat photos on the internet. It doesn't have to be 100% accurate, just as long as it's close. The image thing in the layout penguin made requires square images to make a perfect circle, if that wasn't clear. So they'd all be circles.
So for my leader, I'm thinking I want her to survive the flood simply because she'd totally be the one to start abducting kits? Like from other clans, kittypet families, everyone. She's basically "ThunderClan is the best clan so screw all the others our survival is most important." So she might lose a life in the floods, but I'd like her to survive.
I'm actually looking up some forest preserves near me(because we have a lot) and found one that might actually work really well for clan territories? Like a gigantic prairie/moore with thick grasses, a swampy area full of little lakes and rivers, lots of different forests... I know we were saying we wanted to base it off of a real place maybe, and I was totally down for that. Obviously not our first priority, but I was going to go out walking the trails through there with my sister this weekend, getting a bunch of pictures/probably a trail map, and uploading them if you guys were interested. We could probably edit some things too, maybe adding a little more civilization to it because it is actually pretty remote. So let me know if you guys are interested and I can try that.

I'm at work so I can't stalk you at this second appzy but since Cas is vouching for you I'll give a tentative yes on that. As for the rest, I like the layout but I'm on mobile so we'll see for sure when I get home lol. I guess we're probably leaning towards using photographs for characters. As for the territory, sure, I'd definitely like the see the place you're talking about. We wouldn't use it exactly, most likely, but as a template it sounds promising!
And yeah, that's why I had said a soft limit. Like, so, depending on the characters and the situation, having a couple more than the limit is fine. And that limit only applies to cats joining at the beginning- there's no specific limit to, for example, how many rogues can join or how many kits can be born. It's just an approximate limit to how many cats of a Clan would have survived the flood. People are more than welcome to make "dead" characters that don't survive the flood, with the understanding that they'll only be roleplayed for a VERY short time, though having them appear from StarClan at times later would be possible. It definitely adds more impact to the deaths when you have names and relationships with dead characters.

I tried to simplify the coding some as well, but it could end up just as confusing ;-; Where it says "Black" you can change the colors Also, it looks big on a normal post, but will fit into the Clan's layout better without the extra padding. But I suppose that only matters if you're wanting to be able to copy and paste people's forms Cat name | gender | age[ clan x rank x orientation ] 》appearance & personality

Both look great to me! I would probably adjust the green slightly to make it a bit more foresty (it's very vivid right now) but that's just a matter of personal opinion, it's really up to drea what exact shade they want to use.

Exactly; I was expecting everyone to choose their own color

I'm actually really digging that green though lol. Maybe a bit more minty green like baf196?

I changed it but it honestly looks almost exactly the same on mobile loool I've noticed that my laptop has better screen colors, as in, they show up much nicer. So maybe I would see the difference if I were on there. I'll check in the morning~ and try out any other options that are posted

I made a few slight changes to the layout, and made a sort of "example" allegiances, just to see kind of what it would look like with cats in it... what do you think?

I actually really dig it Gargoyle , especially the colors.
If you guys wanted I could pull the wiki descriptions of the territories, and we could work on refining those? Just so there's something for people who haven't read the books in a while.
For clan colors too, I like WindClan in orange and ThunderClan in green. Maybe a purple for ShadowClan? Blue is obviously the go to for RiverClan. For SkyClan we could do a red or yellow maybe? Or pink. Pink would be pretty fresh.

From the wiki:
The region is far northwest from the forest and north of the sun-drown-place. It consists of varied landscape surrounding a lake. The northern half is covered by woodland and it gives home to ShadowClan and ThunderClan. The southern half is moorland, giving home to RiverClan and WindClan. Two smaller streams flow into the lake from the north, and a river, named River Alba flows out of it.
There is noticeable Twoleg activity in the region. Twolegs come here mostly in greenleaf and there are two Greenleaf Twolegplaces in the region, and several halfbridges (boat docks) around the lake. The ShadowClan territory contains a Twoleg nest called Sanctuary Cottage by Twolegs.
ThunderClan ThunderClan claims the northeastern part; their territory is mainly deciduous woodland. Their camp is an abandoned Twoleg quarry, called the stone hollow by the cats. Landmarks in the ThunderClan territory: The Sky Oak, a large tree near the shore. A mossy clearing where apprentices train. North of the camp is an abandoned Twoleg nest, a location rich in prey and herbs. A network of tunnels running below ThunderClan and WindClan grounds, connecting them. A clearing near the ShadowClan border where Twolegs camp in greenleaf. An abandoned, unpaved road (named The Old Thunderpath by the cats) starting from the hollow and heading north.
ShadowClan ShadowClan claims the northwestern part; their territory is mostly coniferous forest with not much undergrowth and damp ground. The ShadowClan camp is in a dip surrounded by brambles. Landmarks in the ShadowClan territory: A Twoleg nest (Sanctuary Cottage) is where two aggressive kittypets live. Twoleg paths where Twolegs roam during greenleaf. Greenleaf Twolegplaces, both on the ThunderClan and RiverClan borders.
RiverClan RiverClan lives in the southwestern part, around the rivers. The RiverClan Lake Camp is on a triangle of land between two streams. The Gathering Island can be reached from RiverClan territory. Landmarks in the RiverClan territory: During greenleaf, Twolegs come to the Greenleaf Twolegplace to swim. It is noted that some can swim like fish, but a lot more noisily. The halfbridge is peculiar bridge that ends halfway in the water. Twoleg boats are anchored to it. RiverClan owns claim to the lake shore, having the south to the western part of the lake shore.
WindClan WindClan territory is open moor in the southeastern part of the territory. The WindClan Camp is a shallow scoop in the ground, protected from the weather and enemies. Landmarks in the WindClan territory: A network of tunnels running below ThunderClan and WindClan grounds, connecting them. The Horseplace that forms their southern border.
And then SkyClan doesn't have anything because literally nobody updates this page. But yeah, I think we can work with this need be. I like the shorter descriptions and then just having a list of landmarks as a temporary stand in. That way it wouldn't really clutter the page. I'm also going to attach a picture of the territories with SkyClan so we can work out what landmarks would transfer over and whatnot.

Welcome, brokennose! Not sure how much there is left to really help with at this point, since I think we're at the stage of mostly just finalizing some things, but you're welcome to give your opinion on plots and such and to join once we're ready.
Pink would be fun for SkyClan. I was kind of thinking a darker blue for RiverClan and a lighter blue for SkyClan, but pink would certainly set it more apart. Yellow might also be good.
Thanks for the territory stuff, penguin!
Also, I don't know if it's really too early, but I think I'm gonna start working out a few of my characters. At the very least, like, my WindClan leader and stuff. And he's definitely not gonna be a reskinned Tallstar
