You're more than welcome to help out Jekyll
Powers for exorcising might be something to look into, I've been trying to think of a way that didn't include too many religious connotations because I don't want to upset people!

Welcome Jekyll :3
I think that as long as we avoid the prayer aspect of exorcism we should probably be good??? Like, silver weapons and maybe some sort of magic would be safe?

I have one more clan to reply to and I am ready to get to work today. Seriously.
I feel like I've been slacking. lol.
So I am going to finish those creature descriptions, to the best of my ability.
Then we can start working on finalizing territory, if you guys want to start writing up some little blurbs for certain things
or coming up with names for landmarks, that would be amazing! <3

I loved most, if not all of the ideas we came up with and if in the end one of them doesn't work out, we can all make those decisions when we come together to finalize them!

Sorry for the wait. I got distracted watching Tiktok compilations lmao) I honestly suck at names, so they either don't have one or something simple lol
Hemlock Lake: A expansive lake created by surrounding boulders and covered by a heavy fog that never seems to clear. It feeds the many rivers snaking throughout the forest territory. Cats who visit the lake at night when the fog is at it's worst will swear they hear the water lapping against something huge cutting through the dark waves. No matter what is causing these noises, it would be wise to be careful when nearing the waters edge.
Name: Full of dolls hanging from trees and dead undergrowth covered in cobwebs it's said that cats wandering into this part of the forest will never return. Cats who wander too close to this small area of the forest will hear the crying of a kit begging for you to come closer, begging for help. It's advised that you never wander close and never bend to the voices will.
Upwalkers Den: A rundown twoleg place at the end of an old and overgrown trail coming from (The main town). Within the fence sits a garden housing hard to find herbs. Apprentices will often dare each other to climb the ivy covered fence and return with herbs to prove their courage. Unfortunately not all return. It's unclear what resides within the building, but even skilled warriors have fallen to it.
Desert Ruins: Ruins found far within the desert. During nights with a bright moon you can see the shambling shapes of skeletal creatures doomed to wander there. Any animal that has died on the desert sands will eventually end up there, even clan cats can be forced to wander aimlessly if their body is not brought back. If provoked the skeletal animals will attack.
Name: A cat lost in the desert may come across huge, almost spectral cats. They appear without warning and leave no scent nor trail. These cats can offer guidance for those lost, acting as guardians in a seemingly endless desert. However, they can appear as something more malicious and cats may disappear with them. Almost no one has run into these creatures and many clan cats no longer believe in their existence.

Those are great descriptions, Spark!
We can definitely brainstorm some names together!
I didn't get quite as far as I would want with the creatures but I did get a little further. The High Demons are giving me some trouble.
I can't imagine what kind of powers they would have but I'm sure they'd have more ~
Angels ; These monsters are very ironically named, for there is nothing pure or comforting about them. Though from first glance they appear like normal felines, their fur is always the palest white with eyes the color of pure gold. Their wings are mainly pale grays or soft blondes and made up of feathers. There is nothing evil about their appearance, until one gets a closer look at their pupil-less eyes. Angels, as the clan has named these monsters - due to their ethereal beauty and wings - are actually in close relation to sirens. Instead of singing however, they use their silver tongues to infect their prey with a sort of mind-numbing need to serve. They use their puppets until they lose their usefulness, then they destroy their souls permanently, so that no necromancer could even hope to bring back even their ghost. These creatures are physically weak though, so if one can get past their allure, they are not much of a fight.
Lower Demons ; These are the main villains of (name)Clan. Hunters mainly train to fight lower demons, which are unable to possess creatures but take on their own forms. In this form demons are distinctly cat-like, though much bigger. They have clear distinctions from regular felines however, like their eyes, which are a pitch black without whites. They also have a pair of horns atop their head, though how they're shaped depends on the demon. While in this form, the demon can use shadows to teleport short distances (about four fox-lengths) and have enhanced strength. They are very skilled in battle and can be tricky foes, though they can't really use much magic. They are weak to water blessed by StarClan and silver.
High Demons ; These are an extremely rare type of demon, which can't be exercised by merely one exorcist or even killed by two hunters. They are the demons responsible for possessions. Much like their lower counterparts, High Demons have a pair of horns and are larger than the average cat. Their claws are abnormally thick and long, protruding from their paws at all times. Instead of their eyes being pitch black, they gave glowing red rings right around where the outside of their pupil would be. They also have wings, thick and leathery. High Demons are much more dangerous than Lower Demons, as they are skilled both physically and magically. They can use shadows to teleport much farther (more like ten fox-lengths) and they have the ability to manipulate blood and make weapons/armor out of it. So the more blood they spill or the more they bleed the more varied the ability becomes. They are weak to water blessed by StarClan, silver, and the powers medicine cats are given.
Strigoi ; These bloodsuckers don't sparkle in the sunlight. Legend goes that they are the evil spirits who can't make it StarClan because of some crime they committed in their life, so their spirit possesses the forms of different types of animals and seeks out the blood of the living to sustain itself. Cats who are not given proper burials are said to become strigoi and it is the clan's job to hunt them down. One can tell a strigoi by their stone gray, lifeless eyes and the faded, gray color of their fur/feathers/skin/scales. They are completely colorless creatures which makes them blend in with the fog but stand out in heavy forested areas. They are unnaturally quick and have a mouth full of fangs(if possessing a bird their beaks become incredibly sharp) in order to easily extract blood from their prey. They are weak to sunlight and silver.
Vampires ; A more tamer version of strigoi. Vampires are always feline, they cannot possess other forms like their darker cousins. Their fur can be any color or pattern but they usually take on duller colors, like grays, whites, light shades of brown and ginger. Their eyes are always red, there are never any exceptions unless they are a Master. They can drink blood from prey but this isn't filling and they need to feed at least once every two moons on another feline, but only with consent. If there is no consent, the vampire grows ill and vomits up the stolen blood. These creatures can walk in the sunlight, though young ones will often sleep in later naturally and be more sensitive to sunlight hitting their eyes. While not immortal, they do live longer than the average cat by quite a bit. If bonded to a Master vampire they answer to them even before their leader. Vampires are still very sensitive to silver.
Master Vampires ; Not much is truly known about the Master Vampire, as there is only one the clan knows about and he tends to keep to himself. What is known is that he's a pure blood vampire, born a bloodsucker, not a half breed like regular vampires. He has abnormally long fangs, though only on top and his eyes are a deep violet - which turn red when he feeds. He is faster and stronger than even his half-bred counterparts. He is the only type of vampire that can turn another cat into a vampire, which bonds them to his will and makes him their Sire. This is an incredibly rare occurrence and more of a legend amongst the clan. He is more sensitive to the sunlight and can only come out during the night. It is unknown whether silver would cause him harm, no one has tried. The clan allows him to live on the edge of their territory and he leaves them in peace and sometimes aids them when hunting down violent creatures.
Ghosts ; These are certainly the most common entities around (name)Clan. These are transparent cats that float lightly above the ground instead of walking. The reason for their deaths are sometimes clear or they can appear as a younger version of themselves, it all depends on the will of the creature. Ghosts are mainly benevolent and the clan sees them mostly as companions, chatting with them and sharing stories. Some ghosts will go as far as to warn them when danger is coming or to help them find lost cats or particular herbs. Malevolent ghosts are the ones to look out for, though luckily it's easy to tell the difference. All ghosts have a small pulsing, glowing orb where their heart used to be. It can clearly be seen through their translucent skin and is normally a bright red. It turns inky black when ghosts turn violent or threatening. These entities have to be exorcised by the medicine cats. Water blessed by StarClan is a great weakness of theirs and iron.
Wendigo ; These are rare, truly monstrous creatures. In life, they were starved for so long that they were driven into madness, which caused them to turn on their own kind. These cats are grotesquely tall, with long limbs and an extremely skinny body, where their ribs are clearly visible beneath their thin pelts. Their ears are long and drooping, often falling over their solid white eyes. Their mouth is full of fangs and another row of teeth just behind them. They are slow moving and completely blind, but their hearing is heightened to unique levels. Wendigos can also use their voices to mimic others, so that they can lure their prey into their waiting jaws. They are weak to fire and iron.
Zombies ; The living dead are quite harmless, as they usually can only be raised by our very own necromancers. They are not rotting corpses either, instead they appear as they did in life, though they carry the scent of death on them and their eyes are a sickly yellow. It takes a strong, well practiced necromancer to raise a zombie that can speak, most can only raise non-verbal types. Zombies cannot get too far from their necromancer, about seven fox-lengths, before they sink back into the ground. Their bite is incredibly deadly, while it won’t turn you into a zombie, they do have a poison that infects. The sickness takes two days to set in and another three to kill a full grown cat but can be combated with (insert herb here).
Molly ; Our Molly of the Lake, is quite the mystery among the clan. There is great debate, especially amongst the youth about whether she actually exists or not. Legend tells of a giant serpent with delicate blue fins and giant, glimmering eyes and even bigger teeth. Around Molly’s Lake it is normal to see a large shadow beneath the water and many believe that this is Molly herself. Some say seeing her is a true sign of good luck.
Warlocks ; These cats make up a majority of the clan. They are fairly average, aside from the amulets they wear around their necks which indicate the animal spirit they believe in. Each warlock also has a Patron, one of the first warlocks, who gifts them with certain gifts depending on their beliefs and ideals. A warlock relies heavily on their magic and is otherwise an average cat by all means.
Hybrids ; (WIP)

I really like what you've done so far ^^ And feel free to change up anything that i've written. I'm not always the best haha.
For demons we could always have them be able to shift into a half demonic entity or something. Not exactly magic tho. As for magic, they could have the ability to manipulate blood and make weapons/armor out of it. So the more blood they spill or the more they bleed the more varied the ability becomes? Idk, just spit balling haha

Hmmmmm I don't have anything concrete tbh. I think ghosts should be easy enough, and until we come up with more monster ideas we prolly won't have much to do with that. As for werecats, we could always just go the "cats whose abilities are enhanced in the moonlight" route? They're a bit hard to figure out cause it's normally werewolves, but since they're cats its like??? what we gonna give them?
Maybe instead of werecats we could do like, a warlock type cat that can channel the ability of another creature?

A warlock creature could be really cool! ^^
So they would just be able to use animal abilities to enhance their own?
Like if one was an owl type warlock, would they be able to sharpen their eyesight or something like that?

Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking? Like, they could have some sort of Patron animal and whatever they chose they'd inherit an ability from it? It might give some options to the 'normal' clan cats lol. Of course it's just an idea so feel free to shoot it down!

( Also, I'm thinking about how Master Vampires are pretty powerful and I wondered at ways to limit them somewhat.
I was thinking maybe they can't leave camp? Like their is a boundary around camp that they can't leave? )

Maybe there's only one Master Vampire the cats know of and they're kinda an outcast? Like, they don't interact or help the clan cats at all? But they also wouldn't do anything to harm the cats? They could also be unable to enter the sun due to them being a pure vampire breed and not a halfbreed?

I'm so excited to almost be done with these descriptions, it feels like progress!

Ooo the ghost description is very fun!! I think we've made plenty of progress and I'm excited to see what else is gonna happen :0 For the monsters, we could always decide on two or three common ones, and then as more are interacted with as the plot progresses we add them to the front page?
Speaking of monsters, a job for a clan cat could be a bestiary holder? A cat that's main job is to know about monsters and their weaknesses and keep track of records passed down from past cats? Just a random idea I had!

That's a pretty good idea! So we have a wendigo...
Dang, did we figure out any others?
Also that might have some thing to it, maybe instead of it being it's own rank it's an added job for the elders?

Yeah, sounds good to me. And uhhhh I don't think we have anything else figured out. But we could come up with a water monster for the lake, maybe some sort of snake or something? And something that would live in the mansion to. Idk what we'd do, but the first thing that came to mind was a three headed dog or something. Maybe the spirit of a dog who lived there but became malevolent when it's humans left or smthn.

Okay yall, I've called you all here because I have finished the main bestiary for now. It's been decided that it will be added to over time as they discover new monsters. Right now what we got is what we got. I need help with the Warlocks a bit, but I was thinking they'd have amulets in the shape of the animal they chose and then in the color of a specific Patron?
Also, I just realized I forgot a monster for the house. I'll get one up in a bit.
We can work on the hybrids and how they'll work now as well.
