...that I have yet to name! ^-^' I was going to go with Gorgeclan or Cliffclan but those sounded too generic. I wanted something kind of...unique but fitting UPDATE : WE HAVE DECIDED ON A NAME, GULLYCLAN (I made da map myself ) (And I know those little holes on the left side of the map, near the 12, look weird but they're mole holes and idk how to make those so *shrug*) 1 : Gullyclan camp : Very spacious and the dens, that are all caves except for the apprentices' den, are quite big as well. The leader conducts ceremonies and makes announcements from a pile of stones called the Highstone. 2 : The Moon Rock : A large flat rock situated on a small island between two waterfalls. Cats seeking to consult with Starclan come here on half moon nights and rest on the rock. There are two cherry blossom trees located nearby that tend to scatter petals around the area on windy days. It's also a good place to fish during the warmer seasons, but the water here is usually the first to freeze up when it begins to get cold. 3 : Stepping Stones : A series of stones jutting out from the cliffside that allows the clan to easily hop up or down them when leaving or returning to the cliffside they call home. 4 : Training Grounds : A spacious, mostly empty, clearing were apprentices are trained in hunting and fighting techniques. 5 : The Fields : A majority of the prey we hunt are located here. The hills house Hares year round (although they burrow a bit deeper into the ground when it gets cold) and birds and squirrels are usually found in the more forested areas of the fields. Deer can also be found her year round, but we don't hunt them unless given permission by the leader, deputy, and medicine cat to do so. Any cat who does is punished severely, for hunting deer without a large hunting group is extremely dangerous and can be fatal. 6 : Twoleg Camp Grounds : A small clearing were Twolegs usually camp out during the warmer seasons. It is advised to stay away from the area when Twolegs are present. 7 : The Bridge : A means of crossing the small stream, leads toward Twoleg Place. 8 : The Stone Path : The entrance to Twoleg Place. 9 : The River : Cuts through the valley, dividing it in two. Only experience fishers fish here for the water is deeper and moves a bit faster, but larger fish can be found here. 10 : Landslide Debris : A collection of trees, rocks, dirt, and stones that fell during the storm. Now serves as an entry and exit point for/to the mountains. (not present until after the storm) 11 : Abandoned Twoleg Nest : a house long abandoned by it's owners. A brilliant place to find many common herbs and mice but be cautious when inside; It's a two-story house and the floors are rotting, a heavy enough cat could easily fall through and hurt themselves. 12 : The Crater : A rather spacious crater with a few abandoned fox dens in it. The ground here is quite soft under paw and, miraculously, a cherry blossom tree managed to sprout in the middle of it. 13 : Dead Tree Forest : What used to be a luscious pine forest is now dead due to a fire that ravaged this side of the river long ago. While, elsewhere in the territory, some of the trees have grown back, the same cannot be said for this section here. Crows, ravens, and corvids can be found here, but so can the occasional vulture so be stay aware of your surroundings when traversing the area. 14 : The Old Farmland : An old, abandoned, overgrown farmland long since abandoned by it's owners. Now it serves as a great source of prey (birds, mice, rabbits, and the occasional wild pig). Because of this, however, quite a few predators frequent the area as well (large birds, foxes, coyotes, and snakes/adders). 15 : Abandoned Barn : The rarer herbs are found here as well as lots of mice and owls. 16 : The Mountains : Exactly as the name says. The clan cats never venture here, however due to the presence of wolves who are not afraid to let themselves be known. Thankfully, the wolves have no way to exit the mountains...right?
The name of the clan wasn't the only issue I've had either, unfortunately; ‣ One of the later plots with this clan involves a group of rogue cats, that will eventually become an official clan, moving into the territory. Would anyone like to lead that group/clan? You'll have full authority over/leadership of the clan (once it is officially established), the only thing I ask is that the leader's name is Storm (once again, for plot reasons)issue resolved, thanks again Jekyll! ‣ Layout. I have someone in mind that I'm going to ask for assistance/a few pointers but, if they understandably don't wanna help, or just can't, is there anyone who can help me with the layout?issue resolved, thanks so much Necro! aka the layout GOD everyone bow for we are not worthy
I have everything else mostly figured out. Once I get these last few details sorted, it'll be ready and I can post it ^-^ I'm so excited for this! I haven't been this excited about making a clan in a loooooooong time. Here's a little peeky peek of one of the plots hopefully it'll convince more people to join: The cats of Gullyclan have lived in the valley in peace and harmony since before the clan was established. But the air is changing, animals are fleeing the territory and every cat is on edge. With dreams of an incoming storm, one capable of tearing the forest apart, plaguing the medicine cat - and Starclan remaining oddly silent - what hope does this clan have of surviving the storm on the horizon?If anyone has any questions or inquiries about the plot, lore, or history of the clan, please feel free to ask!
Important plot roles that need to be filled ‣ Rogue Group Leader (Storm) Jekyll ‣ Current Deputy Moth's Wish ‣ Possible Future Deputy ‣ Current Deputy's Best Friend ‣ Medicine Cat Sunshine ‣ Medicine Cat Apprentice Rose
Joining Form Thank you Necro for letting me use it, you're an amazing human being, I promise I'll try to find some way to repay you >.<Character Image Name. Write a paragraph describing your cats looks, personality, etc. Try to make it at least 6 lines long. @screenname Rank Relationships Anything Else

Hi! I would love to help and claim the spot of the leader of the second clan. I am totally fine with naming them Storm, I already have an idea for their design and everything too.
I also have several other cats I wanna add, one being a queen. Do you have any cats who could be her mate?
What do you need help with for the clan?
Name wise, if you really want unique, it could be: Gullyclan Chasmclan Abyssclan Couloirclan

I'm certainly interested! Mind you, of course @jekyll has like a thousand characters to add in every clan, so thats great! (no offense Jekyll, you legit do lmao)
If it's alright, I have a warrior and an apprentice character in mind, unsure of age, breed, gender, sexuality etc.
Also, @jekyll, I had an idea that the Queen could bear a litter during the search for refuge, making it significantly harder, especially with a new mouth to feed? And maybe the Queen's mate could be the mentor character that i have my mind on? Idm if otherwise.
ACK this clan idea is amazing! Yes, it's hard coming up with the name for such a complex, beautiful-looking territory!
(I like the twoleg camp made of teepees lol)
QUESTION: How does this storm affect the cats? Obviously it will, but how and how severely just so I get an idea of RP.

Hi @jekyll! Thanks so much for the help ^_^ I'd have replied sooner but I had a terrible headache. Of course you can claim Storm! and thanks for being ok with the name. I haven't worked out the exact words of the prophecy juuust yet but Storm's name will definitely be in it. All of the names for the clan are definitely interesting. I think I quite like Gullyclan, it has a certain ring to it that I'm liking. sunshine the storm, due to the river flooding and danger of landslides, will cause the clan cats to be inable to leave the cliff their camp is situated on for several days, making it significantly difficult to find enough food to feed the whole clan. When they are able to leave, the river will still be very flooded, and they won't be able to cross it for a while which gives the rogue group enough time to enter the territory, due to a rockslide giving providing them with a way to leave the mountains they've traveled through, to the right of the river and settle in before the clan discovers them. So, i guess to simplify my answer, the storm will basically starve them for a few days, give the rogue group a way to enter the territory, and be the reason why they don't immediately discover their new guests. The prophecy the clan receives will be worded so that the cats think an actual storm is what they were being warned about. In reality, it's the rogue cat Storm and his group that the prophecy was really warning them of. Which is why Storm's name is a crucial part of the overall plot.

I'm still trying to figure out the joining form, and I wanna ask Necro for help with the layout when I work up the courage to ask (cuz omg all her layouts are godly) but other than that I have every thing else figured out
And, after saying it a bunch of times, I think I will go with Gullyclan for the name (thanks Jekyll!)
Buuuut, yeah, once the joining form is sorted, you guys can make and reserve your characters here and I'll just copy and paste them when I post the official clan page.
I'll also go and make a list of characters crucial to the plot and future plots (when I get to a computer cuz doing all this on mobile is hard) in case anyone wants to claim them. I'll post that somewhere here when I finish it.

Moth's Wish brilliant, thanks! ^.^
I might claim two characters that take a particular shine to me, still unsure about the characters I came up with.
GullyClan sounds like a great name @jekyll.
Don't be afraid to ask Necro and yes, their joining pages are absolute god.
aaaaa so exciteddd!

Its nice to see someone other than myself excited for this! (and dangit I was hoping people would just think the teepees were just tents xD )For the joining form I think I'm gonna have everyone find a picture for their cat, a lot of rps seem to be doing that lately and I am living for it. But there is an Idea I wanted to run past you guys. For like a little side plot, I was gonna have the leader of the clan be pretty much on her deathbed and the clan is gonna try to save her by sending like a small group to get this herb that they need to cure her of whatever sickness she has. On the way to get the herb the storm happens and the group have to find shelter somewhere for a few days and end up with the Rogue group until they can cross the river and get back home. This would also kinda lead into another major plot I have planned; a forbidden romance (and forbidden kits) between a clan cat and a rogue group cat. Maybe, while the clan group is staying with the rogue group, one of the clan cats fall for one of the rogues and that will eventually become this big thing when the kits are born and the clan wants to keep them but so does the rogues. I also like the idea of a council; like a small group that speaks up for each rank or help guide the leader when they're lost on something. I was thinking the council could be made up of the oldest apprentice, the oldest warrior, Medicine cat, deputy and a elder. Or it could just be all elders since they'd be considered the wisest...idk honestly at this point I'm just spouting out new stuff that pops into mind, I'm just so excited for this!

sunshine for those two roles specifically I'd like to ask that you pick on or the other, just so that all the important roles for the clan aren't taken up by the same few people. But you can pick, like, deputy and medicine cat apprentice, or medicine cat and deputy's best friend.

Sure rose! When I get the joining form up, you can make your cat here and I'll just copy and paste it to the official thread. (Claiming another medi cat role, I see. Hm maybe I should bring Cloudpaw over from Ridgeclan so she can hate another one of your characters xD jk)

Ello, so sorry! I fell asleep. ᵇ ʳ ⁱ ᵍ ʰ ᵗ, I can't help it! I love making new kitties.... I think the idea of her having the kits while the clan is stuck in camp is a great idea since it adds more stress and drama. And I'd be just fine with the character you had in mind being her mate! rose, of course you can claim one of the kits!

Do you make up new charries for every rp you're in Jekyll or do you repeat a few of your favorites?

Post by Jekyll on Aug 2, 2019 18:57:17 GMT -5
I repeat some of my favorites but I do have a LOT of characters: Example A ---> My DenI haven't even added my newest cats (which is most likely about 20 or so more cats to add to the den)
