IntroductionMany, many seasons ago, a she-cat called Dawn decided to leave her comfortable life as a kittypet with a few other like-minded cats. The stories say they traveled for four whole moons, until they reached a river. A storm raged around the cats as they wondered where to go next. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck a tree before them, knocking it over the river and making a bridge. Taking it as a sign, the group kept going and eventually found the place that would become DawnClan's camp. Dawn became the first leader of DawnClan, with her mate Fly as first deputy, and their friend Rocky as the first medicine cat. Now, DawnClan is a strong, proud clan living happily next to the lake.TerritoryCamp: DawnClan's camp is situated in a clearing to the northwest of the lake. The edges are covered with thick brambles, as is the camp entrance. Training Clearing: A smaller clearing where apprentices are taught battle moves and hunting techniques. Ancient Oak: An elderly, long dead oak tree situated next to the river. It is a popular hangout spot for the clan cats. The River: A long, winding stretch of water that separates the forest from the hills. Crossing Rocks: A small stretch of rocks that rise from the water. They are used to cross over to the Rabbit Hills. An even smaller set allows for crossing to Fox Tail Island. Rabbit Hills: Hilly plains that lie adjacent to the forest. It is named for the many rabbits that occupy it during greenleaf. Fox Tail Island: A small, triangular stretch of land that lies in the middle of the river. It is the clan's primary fishing spot. The Tree Bridge: Used as crossing for medicine cats heading to the Starpool. It is the same tree that fell and lead Dawn's group to their camp. The forest on the other side is considered non-clan territory and warriors are forbidden from hunting there. The Starpool: A small pool of water that is fed by the river. It is in a small dip in the ground. This is where medicine cats share with StarClan.
(Map Below) CampLeader's Den: The leader's den is located in the old beech tree situated just inside the camp walls, in what was likely once an owl's nest. It is just above the lowest branch of the tree. Medicine Cat's Den: At the bottom of the beech tree which houses the leader's den is another hollow, which was most likely a rabbit's den at some point long ago, is the medicine cat's den. The entrance is covered with a layer of hanging moss, allowing for a bit of privacy. Warrior's Den: It is situated near the camp entrance, in a cleared out shrub. Strands of hanging moss along with small branches and twigs are used to keep the rain out. Apprentice's Den: Opposite the warriors den, next to the beech tree. It is located in a hollow dome comprised of brambles and twigs. Nursery: The nursery is located in a cave formed between two large rocks next to the warriors den. The back is sealed with thick branches and the entrance is closed off by hanging moss. The Elder's Den: The elder's den sits in the opening between a couple of heather bushes. The branches naturally dome over the opening, though the clan reinforced the branches the keep out water and wind. Fresh-Kill Pile: The clan's caught prey sits in a small dip in the center of camp. Camp Entrance: The camp's entrance is a tunnel surrounded by carefully woven brambles.About the ClanDawnClan cats are renowned as brilliant hunters and strategists. They vary largely in size and appearance due to their history of allowing cats from all walks of life into their clan. Despite their differences in appearance, most are known to be welcoming of newcomers. After all, their founders were kittypets. Who are they to judge? Although they have a wide range of prey around them, they are primarily fishers. PreyFish (very common)Mice (very common)Voles (very common)Shrews (common)Squirrels (common)Small Birds (common)Rabbits (common)Large Birds (uncommon)Large Fish (rare)Predators Badgers (uncommon) Foxes (uncommon) Bobcats (rare) Coyotes (extremely rare)
Rules- Be active: I'd like for this clan to be as active as possible. If you're going to be away for a while, please let me know. Characters will be removed after two weeks of inactivity unless I know you're going to be gone. This rule especially applies to anyone wanting to RP medicine cat or deputy!- Keep it PG: PG-13 at most. Keep gore to a minimum and don't go too into detail with kitting. Definitely don't go into detail with mating! There are kids here. - Add something to the conversation with your posts: I understand that some posts are going to be starters, but when you do reply to someone, make sure you give them something to work with. - No kit stealing/killing: Anyone who comes in and tries to do this will be ignored. - Keep characters realistic: This means no unnatural colors, cats with wings, or perfect characters. It's okay to have a character that's exceptional at something, but make sure to keep it balanced. If they're really good at fishing, maybe they're not great at stalking land prey. In other words, NO GODMODDING. You'll get 2 warnings, and if you do it again, you will be deleted. - This is a fully literate RP: This means I expect 4+ sentences per post with proper grammar and spelling. If you read all the rules, put dawn after your RP example. - Ask before starting major plots: If you have something you think would make for an interesting plot, DM me or @ me. I'm always interested in people's ideas and if I reject it, I promise it's not because it's bad, it just might not fit or it might not be the right time. - Try to keep things even: If you make a she-cat, please also make a tom to keep things even and vice versa. If there's a couple more of one than the other, that's alright, but we should try to avoid having an overwhelming amount of one gender.
A general note!: Myself and my mods reserve the right to reject your form if we believe you won't be able to keep up in the RP. Rejection is not based on any bias! We simply do not want less experienced roleplayers to get left behind.
Another note: There will be a one moon time skip every other Monday!JoiningName | Age in moons | Gender | Sexuality | Username | RankDescription (appearance, personality, history, family, etc.) RP ExampleSeasonNewleaf (X) Greenleaf ( ) Leaf-fall ( ) Leaf-bare ( )

AllegiancesLeader Leopardstar | 51 moons | Tom | Heterosexual | smokey A spotted silver tom with rings on his tail and golden eyes. He is muscular, favoring fighting over hunting. He tends to always appear serious, although that's not the case. While he has his serious moments, he's generally gentle and very approachable. He always starts his day by checking on his clanmates and will not eat until every other cat has. He always puts his clan first in all situations. Leopardstar was born and raised in DawnClan. He excelled greatly at battle, although he was never the best strategist. He was young when he became deputy, after the passing of both Sleekstar, their former leader, and Kestrelwing, their former deputy. The tom had to learn quick how to run the clan and he's mostly gotten the hang of things, thanks to the help of his deputy. **(Open to family! @ me if interested!) Lives remaining: 5
Deputy Palethrush | 38 moons | She-cat | Bisexual | ☾ѕησσzє☽ She is a short haired diluted she-cat with light green eyes. Her fur is usually kept soft and neatly groomed, it's a pride of hers. She has a scar on her left shoulder from a scuffle she had as an apprentice, she got a little too rough and learned her lesson. She used to be overly hot headed but now as seemed to mellow out a bit more, tending to think about her words now. This changed seemed to happen around the time her younger sibling, Jaggedpaw was born. She tries to be a good role model for him since their mother, Willowleaf, passed. She does have her moments though where her old side shows up, where she snaps and her anger takes over. She looks up their leader a lot, as though he's a second mentor for her.
Medicine Cat Sweetberry | 39 moons | Female | Bisexual | owlspots Sweetberry is a petite creamy-coloured she-cat with ginger points. She has long, fluffy fur, and due to her small stature this makes her appear littler than she is. Her eyes are bright, sky blue and she has a small white blaze on her nose. She is a soft-spoken, gentle cat, and has near endless patience; it would take a once-in-a-lifetime event to anger Sweetberry, although riling her up to frustration might not require as much. She is responsible, pragmatic and practical, and her strengths lie in her diplomacy and her knowledge of herbs as expected of a medicine cat. She trained as a warrior apprentice first, but after watching her brother Brackentuft get hurt badly during a training session quickly changed her mind and made her realise she wanted to heal wounds instead of causing them, and she asked to be made the medicine cat apprentice instead. Brackentuft is her littermate, any other relations open!
Medicine Cat Apprentice Shadepaw | 9 moons | Tom | Bisexual | ✨ nissabug ✨ Shadepaw is a gray tabby tom with lighter paws and chest. His markings are very dark compared to the rest of him and line his face nicely. His fur is long and tends to stick up, especially on his back and hind legs. He has a stocky build, with short legs and rounded ears and muzzle. He has big, bright amber eyes. Shadepaw gets excited about everything, even if it's insignificant, and puts his best into everything he does. He tends to forget things if he isn't focused but is always working harder on it. He could talk for days on end if given the chance and wants to be friends with all his Clanmates. He is Cedarpaw's brother.
Senior Warriors (50+ moons) Flamestep | 69 moons | Tom | Bisexual | smokey Flamestep is a ginger tom with darker colored paws and emerald green eyes. He is long-legged, with muscular hind legs favoring leaping and climbing. Although he appears broody and irritated, he's actually very friendly. To an outsider, he would seem intimidating and unapproachable, though his clan knows his true nature. Like his leader, he's deeply invested in the well-being of his clan. Flamestep was born in DawnClan, but his mother was not. He grew up without a father, but that never bothered him. His mother was enough parent for him. Due to his parental situation, he's always been especially close with the kits and queens of the clan. **(Open to family, mate/crush, etc.! @ me if interested!)
Hollybranch | 53 moons | Tom | Gay | ✨ nissabug ✨ Hollybranch is very small and hasn't grown since he became an apprentice. He still has plenty of muscle, however, and a few scars littered across his pelt. The most noticeable one goes from his left cheek to above his right eye. He has short brown fur with faint tabby stripes only visible in the light, and round yellow eyes. Hollybranch is aloof and has a hard time creating strong friendships with other cats. He's rather stoic and doesn't take any nonsense, especially from warriors who should know better. He isn't very social, but somewhere inside him is a passionate, kind cat that needs some help coming out of his shell.
Finchwhisker | 79 moons | Tom | Pansexual | SmugGull Finchwhisker is a brown tabby tom with a white muzzle, throat, and chest, as well as one white paw. His eyes are a sharp, bright green and rarely miss anything. He is a stern, capable, no-nonsense warrior with a cutting sense of humor that often leaves victims in its wake. As an apprentice, he was popular for his cutting tongue - as a warrior, he earned respect for his prowess as a hunter. However, he has few actual friends - most of those he grew up with are either retired or dead - and often finds himself feeling deeply lonely. He has two much younger siblings, Wasptail and Ternsong.
Warriors Cherrytail | 27 moons | She-cat | Bisexual | smokey A lithe calico with an orange tail tip and amber eyes. Her figure makes her more fit for sprinting after rabbits than anything else. She's an extremely friendly cat and a bit of a hopeless romantic. She's known to talk about wanting a mate and kits, and frequently visits the nursery to talk to the queens. Cherrytail was born a kittypet. When she was 5 moons old, she strayed far from her home and found DawnClan. The patrol, lead by Flamestep, took her back to camp and offered her a place to stay. She ended up staying with the clan and Flamestep became like a father to her. **(Open to adoptive mother, crush, etc.!)
Ashstorm | 31 moons | She-cat | Pansexual | smokey Ashstorm is a fluffy gray she-cat with green eyes. Her fur is glossier than most and she is an excellent swimmer and fisher. However, she's hopeless with climbing. Ashstorm is shy, usually keeping to herself to avoid embarrassment. She does enjoy spending time with her friends, though, even if she's never sure what to say. Despite her best efforts, it's obvious when she has a crush since she can barely piece a sentence together around whoever she likes. Ashstorm was born in the clan and lead a normal life. She was still fairly young when she became mates with Rowansplash and had Cedarpaw. She was terribly torn up when Rowansplash left and has since spent most of her time looking out for her kits.
Brackentuft | 39 moons | Tom | Heterosexual | owlspots Brackentuft is a stocky pale ginger tom with darker points and green eyes. His fur is long and thick, but his broad shoulders and the muscle definition in his body prevents him from looking soft. He has a rather large scar down one side of his face from a training session that got more than a little out of hand when he was an apprentice, and another scar across his shoulder blades. While not the strong, silent type, Brackentuft isn't the most talkative cat you'd ever come across. He prefers his own company, or the company of few others, to large crowds, simply because he likes being able to hear himself think. He is a loyal warrior, and has devoted his entire life to DawnClan. He was upset that his sister chose to become a medicine cat instead of a warrior with him, but he's proud of her nonetheless and is very protective of her. Sweetberry is his littermate, any other relations open.
Bloomingtail | 35 moons | She-Cat | Bisexual | ✨ nissabug ✨ Bloomingtail is quite large for a she-cat, and her fluffy fur doesn't help it. She has black and orange tortoiseshell fur, with a few spots of white on her chest and face. Her tail is very plumy, and the tip always curls from how long it is. She has sharp features and narrow yellow eyes. Bloomingtail is both sassy and sweet; if you ask for honesty she will gladly give it to you, and also enjoys giving unwarranted opinions. She's very aggressive in her love for others and will get frustrated if someone isn't taking care of themselves. However, she's still very sweet and her love is unwavering. Her kits came from a fling with an unknown tom.
Stagleap | 22 moons | male | pansexual | owlspots Stagleap is built on the larger side of the scale, stood at a rather impressive height, but he is more lean than muscular. His thick fur is a dusty shade of brown with faint, slightly darker tabby markings, and he has bright green eyes. He has a white stomach, chest, tail-tip and hind legs, but only the toes on his front paws are white. He's mostly of the 'glass-half-full' mindset, being a cheery and optimistic young warrior who is by no means a stranger to conversation. He is extroverted and sociable and often runs away with himself when he's talking, frequently rambling off on a tangent. As a considerably handsome tom, he can be quite the flirt when talking to others, and this sometimes leads a lot of cats to think that he is fond of stringing others along as he behaves like this with practically everybody. He also has a rather silly sense of humour, but he has a good heart.
Riverfrost | 27 moons | Tom | Homosexual | SmugGull A small, slender blue ticked tabby tom with wide-set yellow eyes. Born to Moorclaw and Stormtail in a litter of one and orphaned after a severe outbreak of greencough, Riverfrost is driven to make the parents he never knew proud of him. However, he shows no great skill for either hunting or fighting. He is, however, very intelligent and has a natural inclination towards leadership and teaching. He enjoys spending time with the kits and apprentices and is always happy to answer their questions.
Larchclaw | 41 moons | She-cat | Bisexual | SmugGull Larchclaw is a lilac she-cat with a thick, luxurious pelt, a triangular face, and yellow eyes. She is quite proud of both her appearance and her prowess as a fighter and is quite temperamental, ready to answer insult with insult. Age has not tempered her in the slightest - if anything, its made her sharper. Larchclaw is the type to have many acquaintances and few friends, preferring to take her meals alone and win her battles by her own merits.
Goldengaze | 15 moons | She-cat | Lesbian | grasslands Goldengaze and her brother Ivycloud are freshly-graduated apprentices, still very young and inexperienced as warriors. However, that doesn't stop Goldengaze from having a fiery personality! She tends to start quarrels and get very defensive very easily, with her brother being the one it falls on to hold her back from spitting insults. However, she doesn't hold a grudge and knows when to apologize. She tends to lose her composure in frustrating or daunting situations, and is prone to anger and panic very easily. But she is surprisingly good at talk and can weasel her way out of any situation required. Goldengaze knows how to bring out the fun in life and could be considered overly playful. She is a dark brown tabby with black stripes and darkened markings, and her toes and chest are white. She has bright golden eyes and large ears. Her fur is fluffy and tufts out in several areas.
Ivycloud | 15 moons | Tom | Bisexual | grasslands Ivycloud is small and fluffy, still yet to grow out of the scrawny size of an apprentice. However, he acts much more mature than one, being very naturally observant and even shy. He's overly polite around others but can also be curt and a smart aleck. He's kind of awkward in the sense that he tries to be nice a lot of the time but has difficulty talking. He is an excellent strategist but less so on communicating with his clanmates, and will often stray off in the middle of a patrol to do his own thing, much to the exasperation of others. Ivycloud is a dark lilac-colored tabby, with brown markings and a white underbelly. He has black around his eyes and on the tip of his tufted tail, and his belly and paws are white. His eyes are bright and gold just like his sisters.
Briarheart | 36 moons | male | heterosexual | owlspots Briarheart is a large dusty-brown tom with a paler tan undercoat and yellow eyes. He is, by every definition of the term, a gentle giant; he rarely raises his voice and goes out of his way to be kind to everybody. While rather sensitive and soft-spoken, he would fight tooth and claw to defend those he loves. He adores his mate Cloudstep with every fiber of his being and considers himself the luckiest tom in the world. Briarheart was born and raised in the Clan; while he was not close to his mother or father, within a few days of his apprenticeship he grew close to Cloudstep (then Cloudpaw) and quickly formed a massive crush on the slightly older she-cat. Cloudstep is his mate, and he is about to be a father of three.
Smokewatcher | 31 Moons | Tom | Gay | aprilflowers Smokewatcher is a very large dark grey cat with long fur and pale green eyes, he's quiet and soft spoken and is considered to be a voice of reason in stressful times although he can sometimes come off as apathetic, he's a good fighter because of his size and a poor runner for the same reason. He is the son of a wandering rogue by the name of Dust and a Dawnclan she-cat by the name of Creamfeather, He was very close to his mother since he had no siblings and Dust didn't stick around but one day Creamfeather drowned in an accident when Smokewatcher was just a apprentice so he has a terrible fear of water.
Apprentices Cedarpaw | 9 Moons | Tom | Heterosexual | ayylien Cedarpaw is larger than the average tom of his age with a less stocky build compared to his father's. He has long fur that is quite glossy and fluffy which is great for the leaf-bare snow and swimming. His fur is a bright red-brown with dark red-brown classic mackerel tabby markings and a ring-like pattern on his tail. The fur around his neck and chest is particularly dense and long giving him an almost mane while his tail's fur is also quite long and fluffy. He has oversized paws and ears that he hasn't quite grown into yet. His paws are particularly suited to swimming and walking in the snow with extra fur on them. His ears have tufts of fur sticking straight up from them serving to make them look even larger. Cedarpaw is an energetic young tom who often seeks praise from those around him. This occasionally leads to him doing something risky which more often than not leads him to be scolded and not praised. He quite often brags about his successes no matter how small which can be annoying or endearing depending how one looks at it. Cedarpaw can be quite brave and courageous at times though he may just have no sense of danger or caution. He often prefers battle training over hunting or tracking training due to him often having trouble doing multiple things at once. He can often be found swimming near the Ancient Oak since he can quite easily overheat during newleaf and greenleaf if he isn't careful. Cedarpaw knows that his father left the clan and his biggest ambition in life is to someday meet him. He is the son of Ashstorm and Rowan. (Open to siblings/crushes)
Flowerpaw | 11 moons | She-cat | Heterosexual | owlspots Flowerpaw is a pretty dilute tortoiseshell and white she-cat with soft yellow eyes. She is quite tall, but is very slender with long legs and large ears and appears almost frail due to her slim, leggy build; however, she has simply yet to grow into her body. Her coat is a beautiful array of colors: grey, ginger, cream and white. Flowerpaw is a jovial, cheerful little cat who tends to look at the world in a glass half full manner - she always sees the positive aspects of everything, and is always keen to give others the benefit of the doubt. She's not a very skilled fighter due to her build, but is a very able hunter due to her soft step and her speed which goes relatively unmatched. She was born into the Clan, open to any littermates and parents!
Dewpaw | 7 moons | Tom | Uncertain | owlspots Dewpaw is a rather alarmingly small mostly-white tom with grey ears and some grey and black splotching around his head and the tip of his tail. He has round blue eyes that give him the appearance of a scared kit, and ears just slightly too large for his body. He is a nervous little cat by default, and is jumpy and skittish almost all the time. He's startled very easily by loud noises and is distressed by hostile environments. He's very insecure of his size, and really wants to make up for what he lacks in height and weight, but is having a lot of trouble adjusting to the life of an apprentice. His mother was old for a queen when she gave birth to him - a lot older than she should have been - and this resulted in Dewpaw being the only kit of hers to survive, as his two littermates were stillborn. His mother, Doeblossom, became destitute and distant and refused to take care of Dewpaw as she believed that he too was dead, and that the medicine cats were just lying to her. Doeblossom sank into what was presumed to be madness and eventually died under mysterious circumstances after leaving camp unaccompanied, and her body was recovered by a patrol the next day. Dewpaw was raised by another queen (open) and has always been smaller than the other kits his age and even younger. Open to any foster littermates and the queen who raised him!
Cloverpaw | 10 moons | She-Cat | Lesbian | ✨ nissabug ✨ Cloverpaw is of average height, but her spindly legs make her look taller. She has short brown tabby-and-white fur, with big splotches on her back and covering most of her face. Her tail is dark brown and cuts off at a bob; she was born with it, but sometimes she likes to make up stories about how it came off. She has tufts of fur on her tall ears, and a chest fluffier than the rest of her fur. Her eyes are a soft green. Cloverpaw is laid-back and doesn't like to cause or involve herself in drama, but is still very social. She's good at listening and giving advice, and radiates a big sisterly vibe. She's chill and confident in her skills as a warrior, but doesn't want to show off. She's pretty chill, and won't tattle or tell a secret if it's important to someone.
Jaggedpaw | 8 moons | Tom | Heterosexual | ☾ѕησσzє☽ Jaggedpaw is a calico tom with green eyes much like his sisters. Unlike her, he doesn't keep his short fur as neatly groomed. He is also more happy-go-lucky type of guy. He also likes to just go with the flow of things. He rarely gets angry and tends to try and find solutions besides fighting with others. He tends to get lost in his own mind a lot, trailing off or getting distracted by whatever is nearest to him. He's been like this since he was a tiny kit and it seems like he isn't growing out of it any time soon despite the pleas of the cats around him. He does, however, try his hardest when it comes to the task given to him. He doesn't know why he can't focus very well.
Queens & Kits Kestrelwind | 35 moons | She-cat | Bisexual | ☾ѕησσzє☽ She is a light brown Somali she-cat with dark yellow eyes. She has soft, motherly features to her which suits her well. She loves to take care of the younger kits of the clan, always offering a helping paw for the newer queens. She is soft spoken on most topics unless it comes to the kits, then her voice comes out loud and clear. She tends to stick near the nursery by herself, not wanting to stray too far in case she is needed. The only other place she can be found is near the medicine cat's den because she is interested in the herbs that are surrounded around helping with queens kit. She is the mother to Thistlekit, her only kit to survive from her own litter but she refuses to tell who the father is.
Thistlekit | 4 moons | Tom | Unknown | ☾ѕησσzє☽ Thistlekit is a silver Somali tom kit with dark yellow eyes much like his mother's. His fur is constantly sticking up, hence the name. He is a very curious kit but also a bit of a coward, he doesn't like the idea of the outside of camp and would prefer the idea of staying in the nursery with his mother. He can't imagine himself being as a warrior any day soon despite her claims. He does, however, like to go out and ask the warriors about their day. He is a bit of an attachment to a few warriors around the camp, loving the stories they tell him.
Cloudstep | 38 moons | She-cat | Bisexual | grasslands Cloudstep is very skittish by nature; despite being a seasoned warrior, she's always only been good at hunting, often losing her composure and having to rely on others to save her tail. In fact, her graduation from apprentice to warrior was delayed by three moons due to her failing the mock battle on her assessment. However, Cloudstep has a very warm and kind heart, and a naturally reassuring presence that is sure to soothe even the most uptight of warriors. She excels at talking to cats and giving her clanmates advice, even if her reputation as a coward proceeds her. She is a white cat with thick, fluffy fur and a long, sweeping tail. Her paws and one of her ears are black, and her eyes are green. She is expecting three kits, and they are due soon!
Elders
Outsiders Rowan (formerly Rowansplash) | 35 Moons | Tom | Bisexual | ayylien Rowan is a large tom with a stocky and slightly chubby build and has notably large and flat paws. He had long glossy brown fur with thick dark brown tabby markings and a ring-like pattern on his tail. The fur on his underbelly and chest is light brown with his paws being the same color. His eyes are a pale yellow. Rowan is an easygoing cat who can often be seen sunbathing on his housefolk's stone fence. He enjoys walking around his neighborhood and meeting new cats often quickly becoming friends with them. He has a tendency to avoid conflict and that occasionally leads to other cats to take advantage of him in one way or another. He can often be found staring into the forest from his housefolk's fence and will sometimes even venture into it in order to hunt. Rowan was formerly a warrior in Dawnclan but left after becoming disillusioned with clan life. He attempted to convince his mate Ashstorm to leave with him and bring their kits to live as a kittypet but ultimately left alone. He is the father of Cedarpaw.
Sylvester | 17 moons | Tom | Heterosexual | smokey Sylvester is a small white tom with black splotches and green eyes. He's curious and enjoys exploring, which often leads to trouble. He is friendly towards strangers and tends to be oblivious to hostility. Sylvester was born and raised a kittypet. He never knew his parents, but that never bothered him. He had a lot of friends in his neighborhood, but he found the easy life boring. Eventually he wandered off and met up with a couple of kittypets like him who had decided to live in the forest north of them, next to a lake. Some of them claimed that a group of wild cats lived on the other side of the lake, but Sylvester never believed them. He likes to cross the tree bridge at night and explore the opposite riverbank.
Otto | 12 moons | Tom | Pansexual | smokey Otto is a slender brown tom with a lighter colored muzzle, a black tail tip, and green eyes. He has big ears and long legs, making him excellent at hunting rabbits and tracking, but not the best at fighting. He's a nervous cat who scares easy, which is something he's trying to fix. He's generally not very adventurous due to his timid nature. Growing up, Otto heard stories from former kittypets about the cruelty of twolegs. He never believed them until his twolegs tried to put him in their monster. The lithe tom managed to wriggle free and fled to the forest, where he found a couple of cats heading to live in the forest. He joined them and has been learning the basics of hunting and fighting from them.
Freyja | 72 moons | She-cat | Heterosexual | smokey Freyja is a massive dark brown tabby with piercing green eyes. She has long, thick fur with lighter colored rings around her neck and front legs. She has a very intense presence, bringing a daunting atmosphere into every conversation she has. She's distrustful of outsiders, although she will gladly treat them like old friends once they have proven their loyalty. Freyja was a kittypet for a long time before she became curious about living in the forest. She left her comfortable life behind in favor of absolute freedom, taking with her a few other kittypets from the area. She became like a leader to the group, making most of the important decisions, although she's never claimed to be in control. Freyja encourages the other cats in the group to live their own lives, but to still look out for their own.
Alice | 32 moons | Female | Heterosexual | owlspots Alice is an elegant, mostly-white she-cat with soft, downy fur and bright amber eyes. Her fur is almost entirely white with the exception of a couple of orange and black patches on her ears and head as well as the very tip of her tail. She has a slim build with very little muscle definition, as she has been a mostly indoor housecat all her life. Her tail is long and plume-like and her ears are slightly rounded. She is gentle and motherly, and is very much a pacifist: she has no stomach for violence and is appalled by the mere thought of cats hurting other cats. She is quite clueless as to the brutality of the world outside her nest and although she has heard of the cats who live in the forest, she does not understand that the way they live is not exactly the most comfortable and pleasant. She was bred by her twolegs and mated to a tom she did not know; she has already had one litter, and they were all taken from her, so she is determined to not let this happen again. She is expecting her second litter, and took the first chance she got to escape her housefolks' nest and flee into the forest. She is currently in search of the cats she knows live in the forest.
Callie | 14 Moons | She-Cat | Heterosexual | ayylien Callie is a lean she-cat with short calico fur and dull amber eyes. She has particularly strong legs and is at home in trees as much as she is on the ground. Callie has grown fond of the little group she now finds herself in and would go out if her way to help them out. She's also become antagonistic towards outside the group very quickly. She often acts haughtily and brags about her accomplishments a little too much. This is partly done to impress Freyja whom she greatly admires. It's also done in part to get the attention of her crush Sylvester. Callie found her way to the group in much the same way of the others.
StarClan [Cats open for claiming: Dawn, Fly, Rocky, Sleekstar, and Kestrelwing]
Dark Forest Russetclaw | 63 Moons at Death | Tom | Heterosexual | ayylien Russetclaw is an absolutely massive cat twice the size of most other cats with a stocky build. His muscles ripple under his long and dull reddish-brown pelt. His eyes are a striking amber. He has large flat paws that were perfect for the leaf-bare snow. Russetclaw is a very narcissistic and merciless cat though very courageous and loving of his family. Russetclaw was once the ideal warrior, having even been made into DawnClan's Deputy. This all changed when one of his kits was killed by a Rouge just after they became an Apprentice. In a fury, he searched through the forest until he found the rogue and discovered they were nursing kits. He showed no mercy and killed both the Rogue and their kits. He was confronted by the Finchstar, which eventually resulted in a battle that ended in Russetclaw's death. Sleekstar was appointed deputy in his place. He keeps a close eye on his ancestor Cedarpaw as he sees himself in the young tom.
[Please ask before making dark forest cats!]

Deleted Character Archive
Gorseflower |40 moons | She-cat | Heterosexual| Firedance
A lithe yellow tabby she-cat with deep green eyes; clever, honest, perceptive, loyal, fierce, persistent, selfless
Gorseflower’s mother, Silversplash, fell in love with and secretly mated a loner named Tanner. When she became pregnant, she had no choice but to reveal all to her Clanmates. Though the leader of DawnClan forgave her, her Clanmates fostered a distrust of her and heavily shunned her. This, coupled with Tanner abandoning her for a high-strung kittypet, made her go into deep depression, which was quite unhealthy for her and her kits.
When it came time for her to give birth, her first kit, Gorsekit, was almost miraculously whole and healthy, though her other daughter, Featherkit, was born with deformities so horrible that she was unable to survive and died a few heartbeats after being born. Silversplash, weakened by the kitting, also died. Gorsekit was left to be raised by a sympathetic queen called Flowerpetal who had also lost her only son.
It was evident from an early age that Gorsekit, later Gorsepaw, was a shrewd cat who possessed a sharp mind. At her warrior ceremony she asked to be named Gorseflower after her adopted mother, who had passed on due to greencough a few moons prior. Gorseflower continued to make a name for herself as she grew older, growing in Clan popularity despite her “tainted” blood, a notion which she worked hard to drive out of the minds of her Clanmates. She was known for her wit, intelligence, selflessness, and fierce loyalty, all of which managed to draw away from the fact that she was hopelessly and sometimes annoyingly tenacious. These qualities led to her being chosen as deputy for DawnClan.
Duskrose | 36 moons| She-cat | Heterosexual | Firedance
Sleek black she-cat with medium-length fur, long, feathery whiskers and blue eyes; Loyal, soft-spoken, withdrawn, reflective
Her parents, Scarface and Grasspelt, died of old age when she was 30 moons old, Nothing (else) noteworthy.
Lightningshadow | 17 moons | She-cat | Heterosexual | Blueflame123
Jet black with dark ginger ear tips. Ice blue eyes, she has longer fluffy fur and tail. Very energetic and likes to explore, she isn't a very serious cat unless she needs to be, but she is very stubborn. She is very fast and is a great hunter, but she isn't too good at fighting. She was found in the forest after her family was killed by foxes when she was just a kit. She was raised as a warrior. She would eventually like to have kits once she finds a good mate.
Gingerpaw | 7 moons | She-cat | Heterosexual | Blueflame123
She has short, sleek dusty brown fur with light ginger underbelly, chest, paws, ear tips and tail tip. She has bright green eyes. Gingerpaw is very laid back, she has a strong build so it makes her a good fighter, she is quick thinking. She enjoys tree climbing and swimming and spends as much time as she can helping her clan ever since she was a kit. She was born into the clan, even when her mother died and her father left the clan. She has no littermates.

Gorseflower padded into camp, a vole clamped in her jaws. There was nothing quite like hunting in the freshness of an early newleaf morning as the sun ascended the sky in a wash of pale pastel hues. She had enjoyed the sight and smell of green newleaf growing things, and was anxious for her Clan to get their bellies full again after a long, hard leaf-bare. Depositing her plump catch on the fresh-kill pile, she nodded to Leopardstar and stood expectantly, waiting for the Clan warriors to come to her so she could distribute the day’s duties among them. Duskrose slunk out of the warriors’ den, jaws gaping in a yawn as she stretched luxuriously, feeling the warm new-leaf sunshine pool on her sleek black pelt. Leaning over to lap at her chest fur, she let her gaze roam the camp, wondering what the day had in store.

Gorseflower dipped her head in acknowledgement of Flamestep’s greeting. “Good morning, Flamestep, Cherrytail. Yes, it seems that the prey is finally coming back after a difficult leaf-bare. DawnClan deserves to have their bellies filled, and I want to stock the fresh-kill pile as soon as possible. I think you can lead a hunting patrol. See what you can find on your way to the Ancient Oak. Take Cherrytail and-” Gorseflower paused and scanned the clearing. Ashstorm was standing outside the apprentices’ den, while Leopardstar had headed over to talk to Duskrose. Gorseflower had noticed the longing glances Leopardstar sneaked at the pretty sable-furred warrior, and had secretly been waiting for the moment the Clan leader got the courage to approach her. It looked like that time was now. It would have to be Ashstorm. “-Ashstorm. You can take Ashstorm as well,” Gorseflower finished, turning her attention back to Flamestep.
Duskrose was startled when Leopardstar approached her, even more so with his comment about her looks. She was a cat that generally wasn’t noticed much. What a surprise that Leopardstar of all cats came to strike up a conversation with her. “Thank you, Leopardstar.” she dipped her head respectfully. She shuffled her paws awkwardly, searching for something to say next. “Er, it’s a lovely morning, isn’t it?” she eventually mewed hesitantly.

(hello! welcome! i'll add your characters now! feel free to rp)
"Yes, it is." Leopardstar mentally clawed himself for making the she-cat uncomfortable. Come on, Leopardstar! You lead an entire clan! Surely you can talk to one cat. But to him, Duskrose wasn't just any cat. He'd had his eye on her for the past few moons, though he could never find the courage to be direct with her and he often found himself just asking her about the weather or how her hunts went. If leading the clan was like catching a minnow, talking to Duskrose was like fighting ten badgers on his own. Granted, he loved being near her, and he was sure he would like it more if he actually knew what to say. Finally getting a hold of himself, Leopardstar straightened his back. "Would you like to visit the lake with me?" he asked slowly, his meow sounding a lot meeker than he meant it to.
Flamestep nodded and headed in Ashstorm's direction, leaving Cherrytail behind with Gorseflower. "She's been quieter than usual since... well, you know," the she-cat commented, looking across the clearing at Ashstorm. The gray warrior looked about ready to jump out of her pelt every time another cat approached her ever since her mate left. Cherrytail felt awful for her and often tried to cheer her up, though she could tell the only thing keeping Ashstorm grounded was Cedarpaw.

Lightningshadow padded along the river as she searched for prey. Ever since she twisted her paw she wasn't out much and it was eating her up. She felt much better now, especially after a run for the first time in a moon. She twitched her tail happily as she scented somewhat fresh rabbit from across the river. She hadn't been able to hunt a rabbit in what seemed like forever! She quickly crossed the river at the rock path and headed up the moor. Excitement prickled her pelt as she alerted herself for whatever prey she could scent.
Gingerpaw yawned as she stretched out in her nest. She decided on a nap earlier when she came back from a hunting patrol, catching a vole and a sparrow. It was still new and exciting for her to leave the camp, being an apprentice for only a moon and all. She sat up and started grooming her pelt carefully.

Leopardstar flinched slightly at her words. "It's nothing serious or-- Well, I guess it could be considered serious, but--" He stumbled over his words like an apprentice in his first training session. Finally, he took a breath and looked Duskrose in the eye, his gaze soft and sincere. "I'd just really like to spend time with you," he admitted, his pelt prickling with embarrassment.
"I'm okay!" Cherrytail responded cheerfully. "Flamestep has been watching out for me, as usual." She watched her father with admiration as he coaxed Ashstorm away from the apprentice's den. The two approached and Cherrytail stood, dipping her head towards Gorseflower. "I guess we'll be taking our leave," she said, waving her tail as she followed Flamestep and Ashstorm towards the camp entrance.

Duskrose could hardly conceal her amazement. Leopardstar wanted to spend time alone-with her? The black she-cat’s mind was torn with indecision. She knew that she would probably make such a big fool of herself if she went out with him that he wouldn’t even want to look at her again. On the other paw, she didn’t feel like she could refuse him. She just didn’t know! StarClan, help me! She wailed silently. “Er...um, that’s very nice of you to ask, Leopardstar, but um, well, you see...I think I’m needed on a patrol. I can’t enjoy myself without having done something for the Clan first. You know, warrior code and all!” she chuckled nervously.
Gorseflower waved her tail back at the retreating patrol, then glanced around. Leopardstar was still talking with Duskrose. Then, she remembered Fernpaw. Was the apprentice still in her nest? “Fernpaw?” she called, heading over to the apprentices’ den. “Are you in there?”

Gingerpaw, but close XD Wildbriar)) Gingerpaw yawned as she emerged from the den, her mentor standing in front of her. "Yes Gorseflower?" She said cheerfully as she shook her pelt. Glancing around the clearing quickly before flicking her ears and sitting in front of her mentor. She was excited to be an apprentice, she felt so grown up.

Lol its fine!! I agree, its a late night XD))
Gingerpaw nodded, "want me to go collect some moss?" She asked, jumping to her paws excitedly. She liked decorating the camp. She did it as a kit too. She glanced around as she looked for places that needed to be thickened some more, focusing on a spot beside the nursery.

Blueflame123 we could start them off as having crushes maybe though I don't think Cedarpaw quite understands romance right now. Also sorry for poofing. My internet just wasn't cooperating.)) Cedarpaw began to stir as he heard someone call into the apprentices den. He opened his eyes and spotted Gingerpaw talking to Gorseflower and listened. He chimed in on their conversation "I could help if you'd like." He stood up and stretched trying to get rid of the rest of his sleepiness. Specklepool walked out into the camp and noticed was a bit empty. A patrol must have gone out she thought as she spotted Leopardstar talking to Duskrose. Curious as to what was happening she walked up to them. Speaking cheerily she greeted "Good morning Duskrose, Leopardstar. Is something going on?"

Gingerpaw flicked her ears for a moment before ducking back into the apprentice den. She saw Cedarpaw waking up. "Do you want to come collect moss with me?" She asked him excitedly. She knew he was a little older than her but surely he liked helping too? She didn't give it much thought, "Meet me outside if you do." She said, not giving him time to respond. She flicked his ear with her tail and went back to her mentor outside the den.
