CrimsonclanIntroduction "If you were born here then welcome small one to our humble home... if you are an outsider who has proven their strength and loyalty then welcome to your new home. May your life be filled with adventure and may you die with honor. Oh, who am I? I am Maggotstar, leader of Crimsonclan."
History Our history is shrouded in lies and rumors, buried by the elders to keep the past hidden in secret. All we may know is we originated from the mountains and came down to the forest because we were chased out by two-legs. Sometimes the elders will mumble that history repeated itself, but it's unknown what they mean.
Territory General Landscape: Temperate Coniferous Forest is the biome, home to trees like cedar, cypress, fir, pine, spruce, redwood, and yew. Has a large lake near dead center of the territory. The area will usually have a normal season system of humid green leafs and cold leaf bares. Can experience different weather such as sunny and warm to freezing rain, to blizzards.
Crimsonclan Camp- A large clearing surrounded with tall and thick trees as well as fallen logs. The clan makes most of their dens out of branches, leaves, fallen logs, or old tree stumps from old trees that have been cleared out seasons before the clan settled here. Sometimes the cats can find shiny things or old rusty objects used by the two-legs many moons ago.
Crystal Lake- A beautiful lake near the center of the territory and north of camp. The rivers that feed into and from the lake divide the territory into two halves. The lake is surround with soft dirt and sand, making it a comfortable place to fish or swim during the warmer months.
Mother River- West of the lake is Mother River. A big river with a strong current that feeds into the lake from no one knows where. A decent place to fish, but due to the strong current most cats are advised to stay away.
Southern River- Never given an official name, the river here feeds from the lake and travels south east. Its stopped abruptly by a pile of logs that the clan call the Log Bridge. This river has a slower current, making it safer to fish from.
Log Bridge- A stack of cut down trees and branches that were left behind by two-legs long ago. It acts as a dam and has caused the Southern River to split into two, smaller streams which are called the Twin Streams.
Twin Streams- Two streams that run parallel to each other heading south. It has a very soothing and peaceful sound as the water trickles down the rocky hills.
Murky Pool- West of camp and south of the lake is a small pool that stands on its own, its unknown where the water continues to come from but some think its comes from under the ground somewhere. The only think that most cats can see in the water are the stars and moon at night. The area is surrounded with stones and rocks, sometimes slippery after a good rain.
Rabbit Hills- Across the Southern River and in the other side of the territory is a bunch of open hills that is home to many rabbits and hares. A good place for hunting, but is off limits during leaf bare.
Jagged Peaks- A large mountain range in the north east on the other side of the territory, tales state that the clan original came from the mountains but other time the history became muddy and filled with gossip or rumors.
Camp Camp Entrance- A tunnel surrounded and protected with brambles and thorns. Located in the east of camp, near the leader's den.
Leader's den- A old tree stump that's been hollowed out in the middle. The leader will usually stand on top of the stump to announce clan news or meetings.
Warrior's Den- A den made of branches, leaves, and bracken. All nests are made of moss or feathers.
Apprentice's Den- Similar to the warriors den but slightly smaller, made of the same materials.
Nursery- Three large bushes with bracken, brambles, and and branches used to cover to the top of them and the spaces in between the bushes to keep it dry and safe. The ground underneath is very soft, almost like fine sand.
Elder's den- A long hollowed out spruce log, strong and sturdy despite seasons of use. A few patch jobs on the top to prevent leaks, but its comfortable enough for the elders. |

Rp Rules
Follow all forum rules and guidelines, no exceptions as well as clan rules. Let's keep things civil as we can please so everyone can have fun.
Under no circumstances will bullying or harassment will be tolerated. You'll have two strikes and then I will have to ask you to leave.
No godmodding or killing characters without permission.
Try to be as detailed as you can in rp, I would like there to be at least three sentences per character being role played. Makes it easier for people to reply to your posts.
If you have one important role, leader, deputy, or medicine cat please don't be greedy and go for the other two important roles. Thank you.
Try to keep fur and eyes colors natural, I am willing to let eye colors be slightly unnatural in certain cases. Also no wings or powers or anything like that.
If you're going to be inactive for a while please let me know, i know everyone is busy with their own stuff but I'd later everyone to be on and rp here at least once a week. Put 'tbd' in the other section of your joining form. I will make exceptions for some people, but if you have an important role then I need you to be on here at least once or twice a week. People who are inactive for three weeks without giving me a heads up first will be removed from the front page, you are free to join up again when you can be more active.
Try to keep genders even as well at the apprentice to warrior ratio, so if you make an apprentice also make a warrior as well. It'll really help.
Please don't try to rp as your own mate, that being said you can still join with a queen who has a dead or simply unknown mate.
I will age cats by one moon every two weeks, helps to keep everything move smoothly.
As the creator of the thread I reserve the rights to change or add the rules whenever I see it's needed. Any suggestions are also welcome if I'm missing a rule or two
Warrior Code
Defend your Clan, even with your life.
The other side of the territory, across the Lake and Rivers is forbidden during Leaf-bare.
Elders, queens, and kits must be fed before apprentices and warriors. Unless they have permission, apprentices may not eat until they have hunted to feed the elders. If any warrior or apprentice is sick or injured, they may eat while the elders, queens, and kits are eating.
Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to StarClan for its life.
A kit must be at least six moons old to become an apprentice.
Newly appointed warriors will keep a silent vigil for one night after receiving their warrior name.
A cat cannot be made deputy without having mentored at least one apprentice.
The deputy will become Clan leader when the leader dies, retires, or is exiled.
After the death, retirement, promotion (to a leader status), or exile of the deputy, the new deputy must be chosen before moonhigh.
Boundaries must be checked and marked daily. Challenge all trespassing cats.
No warrior can neglect a kit in pain or danger, even if the kit is from outside the clan.
The word of the Clan leader is the warrior code.

Allegiance
Leader:
Maggotstar- A completely white she-cat with long fur and long claws. Her eyes are pink-like color making her an albino. Maggotclaw is stubborn and headstrong, she's a young leader with much to learn but she does show promise. This lack of experience does make some cats doubt her, but she will rise up to any challenge that she is given. In her mind failure is never an option, she has to succeed in everything she does. The pressure to be perfect stems from her father Hollowclaw who expects a lot from her. 32 moons. (~Maggotclaw~)
Deputy:
Examplecat-description Medicine cat:
Examplecat-description Medicine cat Apprentice:
Examplecat-description
Warriors:Lavenderfrost- White, fluffy she-cat with silver spotted tabby markings and a dark silver streak going down her back. Has blue-ish silver points on her face, ears, paws, and tail. She has a scar on her left shoulder from a training accident. She has ice blue eyes. Lavenderfrost is a very sweet and loving she-cat, more than anything she wants a mate to grow old with and kits to care for and watch grow up. She will fight when she needs to, but is seen more as a mouse-heart among the clan. 42 moons. (~Maggotclaw~)
Whiteflame- A large, broad shoulder tom with messy white fur and littered with scars on his face, neck, and hind legs. His is missing half of his right ear and has cuts in the left. His eyes are bright amber. Whiteflame is a serious and stern tom, he takes everything seriously and always seems tense. Some cats think he has now real emotions due to his stoic expression but he's a very loyal and honest tom. 42 moons. (~Maggotclaw~)
Leopardclaw- A long haired Bengal mix she-cat, has a golden pelt with black and orange spots across her body. Has black patches over her eyes, black ear tips, and black tail tip. Her muzzle, chest, stomach, under tail, and paws are white. She has one dark green eye, having lost the other in a swimming accident. Leopardclaw is very tomboyish, having a strong urge to prove she's just as strong as any other cat. Her attitude towards other cats depends on their gender, she's usually kind and helpful with she-cats but with toms she can be standoffish and rude. She's a very loyal clanmate and is courageous to a fault of it being reckless. 30 moons. (~Maggotclaw~)
Troutscale- Sleek, blue furred tom with dark blue spotted tabby markings. Has a white muzzle, chest/stomach, hind paws, and tail tip. Has amber eyes. A very vain tom, Troutscale cares more about his appearance then he does battling or hunting. He despises getting his fur dirty and fears that idea of ever getting a permanent scar on his face. He's very charming and a flirt with other she-cats but isn't sure about ever wanting kits, he doesn't feel he could handle the responsibility. 20 Moons. (~Maggotclaw~)
Apprentices: Redpaw-A lanky, long limb tom with short, reddish brown fur. His eyes are slanted like a Siamese and they are a vibrant green color. He has tufts of fur at the tops of his ears, and he has a very narrow face. Redpaw is a snarky and overly confident, he has a short temper and will snap very easily. His temper often gets him in trouble as well as his attitude in general. He's like to play it off with an 'I don't care' attitude but deep down he does care, he just doesn't know how to control his own emotions. 9 moons. (~Maggotclaw~)
Queens/Kits:
Examplecat-description
Elders:
Braveheart-A skinny calico she-cat, littered with scars and old wounds. Leaf green eyes, blind in her right eye with a nasty scar across it. Claw marks across the bridge of her nose and across her neck. Small cuts and bite marks on her ears. Braveheart was originally named Coontail, but was given her new name when she became a elder due to her physical and mental injuries. She received her wounds from defending the nursery from a hawk attack. She has a sweet and optimistic attitude most days, although she does suffer from night terrors and panic attacks from the attack. 142 moons. (~Maggotclaw~)
Hollowclaw- A large, black and white tom with long fur. Has a white muzzle, chest/stomach, paws, and tail tip. His eyes are a burning amber color. He has many cuts and scars along his ears and face, and long claws on each paw. Hollowclaw is a grumpy and angry tom, he has a short temper and will snap at anyone who gets on his nerves. He hates being an elder and would rather die as a true wild warrior in battle or defending his clan. 152 moons. (~Maggotclaw~)

Customs
*The other side of the territory across the rivers and lake is forbidden during leaf bare, the reason is unknown as the elders of the clan swore themselves to take the knowledge to their graves. Everyone else in the clan is either two young to remember or were outsiders that joined the clan later on.
*To turn down a challenge is a sign of weakness, most cats in the clan relish the opportunity to prove their strength and cunning in battle or hunting.
*The medicine cat will travel to the Murky Pool to speak to Starclan on full moons when the pool is at it's clearest.
*Challenges in battle will usually end when one cat submits or it is to the death, this is common practice to decide who should be deputy.
*Warrior apprentices will become warriors by passing a battle test with their mentor as their opponent. Some warriors go easier on their apprentices, fighting with or without claws is up to the apprentice.
*Medicine cat and Medicine cat apprentice are taught to fight like the warriors, it is everyone's duty to protect the clan.
