[ Shadowclan Introduction ]
It was a quiet morning, typical in the average day of Shadowclan. Sunlight trickled its way through the pine trees, casting its rays of warmth through the areas below. Towards the back, a large oak tree loomed over the camp. Upon the roots sat two toms, both of similar appearances with their amber and copper eyes piercing through the shadows. The exceptions were that the one with copper eyes had a black pelt whereas the one with amber eyes had a smokey gray pelt. Otherwise they portrayed quite similar looks to be identified as brothers. Both toms were in the midst of a conversation. Perhaps a sincere one considering their tones were hushed and their head close together.
Whatever conversation they were having was cut short, as the sounds of voices approaching was getting particularly loud. The brothers turned their heads in unison over towards the bramble entrance. Through the small path emerged three cats: two she-cats and a tom. The two she-cats seemed to be supporting the tom, whom appeared to be limping awkwardly. The black furred tom rose and leaped from his spot on the oak's roots, swiftly making his way towards the group whereas his brother stayed behind. "I told you that you should have no chased after that bird. Danger lurked around where it was." "Oh shut it you old loon! Like you would have ever known this would happen." "Sparrowtuft! Don't be so rude to Shadeblossom! It's your own fault anyways that you weren't paying attention to anything in the first place." "Oh I see, so it's entirely my fault that—" The argument was cut short from the lash of the black tom's long tail. "Enough. You guys are squabbling like a bunch of crows." He meowed flatly, casting his gaze at the three cats. "Sorry 'bout that Eveningstar..." The tom mumbled, still a bit indignant from the little bicker with the two she-cats.
Eveningstar gave a curt nod and turned his attention to the silver tabby she-cat. "Orchidfrost, please explain what on earth happened to him." He meowed, sounding slightly exasperated. It was almost as if this wasn't the first time an occurrence like this happened. "Well we were out on our hunting patrol not too far off from Thunderpath," she explained. "Sparrowtuft had found a crow and went after it. When he went to chase it, he stepped on a sharp piece of glass. Shadeblossom and I went to go help him to return him back to him." When she was finished, Eveningstar went quiet for a moment. He finally replied, "Take him in so he doesn't end up getting an infection." The tom then turned and padded off, leaving it at that. The two she-cats took the injured tom over to the medicine cat's den.
Eveningstar bounded over towards a boulder on the edge of the clearing. Once on top of it, he made his call. "Cats of Shadowclan, please gather!" He yowled, his voice ringing clearly throughout the camp. Cats made their way out of the shadows, some already settled in having been in the area. A few were already passing concerned glances and mumbled conversations, having had seen one of the warriors escorted to the medicine cat's den. Others were keen to see what the leader had to say. "I have an announcement to make. Or rather, a reminder of sorts," Eveningstar began, scanning the crowd of cats below him. "It has come to my attention that there have been a few cats in the past while that have sustained injuries from broken shards of glass. I would like to advise any cats that happen to be by the Thunderpath to keep their distance from there area. I do not want any of my Clanmates getting any more injuries like these. That is all." With that the slender black tom briskly leaped off the boulder, leaving the cats to their own manners. Most went off to resume their duties while a few others lingered to chat among each other a bit longer.
The Shadowclan leader made his way back over to the roots that made up his den. His brother was there waiting for him, the smokey gray tom already seated on one of the roots. "Hey Smokeyhorizon." he greeted, as he stepped up on the root and sat himself next to his brother. He then rested his head on his paws and gave a sigh, mulling over his thoughts. "That's the third idiot that got glass stuck in their paws." Smokeyhorizon commented gruffly, lashing his tail. "I know, I can count you furball." Eveningstar huffed, half amused. He pushed himself up to a sitting position, his amber gaze drifting over to the medicine cat's den where Sparrowtuft was taken. "I know... It's just that, something like this never happened so frequently," he meowed aloud, speaking his thoughts to his littermate. "I mean yes we've had those rare instances where it would happen; twolegs throw their junk beside Thunderpath from time to time. But, it seems to be happening more and more. I can't help feel this may become a problem. Or... perhaps I'm just worrying too much...?"
Silence loomed over the two brothers, leaving them to their own thoughts for the meanwhile. After a bit, the spell finally broke when Smokeyhorizon gave his brother a small nudge. "You're just overthinking things Eveningstar. A lot of things happened over the past few moons. Trust me, I... understand you too..." The smokey gray tom drifted off, his tone catching slightly off edge for a moment, recollecting what appeared to seem a dismal memory. He blinked a few times, snapping back to reality. He gave a quick cough and continued. "Um, yes. Twolegs always leave their junk laying around, so there are just some times it happens more frequently. Don't stress out about it." He meowed, sounding genuine for once. Eveningstar turned his head to his brother, slightly taken aback. This was probably one of the rare occasions where he sounded this sincere. "Thanks, I needed that." He meowed, giving half a smile. The tom then averted his gaze to the sky and gave a sigh. Perhaps I am thinking about this too deeply, he thought. Though, I still just can't help have this feeling... That the future of Shadowclan is going to be grim. Here's my intro just in cast you need it ^^ Just made a few quick edits, but otherwise it's finished~ nvn

SkyClan Intro :: "Time to wake up, it's morning" A sweet voice coos into the darkness. A kernel of light blinks into existence, far off from where you are. You pad towards it and more voices bounce in the shadows, "Silly, the sun is up so you should be too!" "Wakey wakey!" "GET UP! We have to move!" "Wake up, it's time for training." "–WAKE UP!" "Moon of my life, the sun is awake–" An endless sea of voices, rough and smooth, warm and cold, high pitched chirps and deep growls, all swarming the void around you like invisible smoke. Giggles and shouts twist in a tight, violent circle around your ears, closing in as your walk speeds up, anxious for something. For what? You're not sure. That first voice again, so loving that it fills your soul with a sort of giddy laughter and you start to run. "Wake up my sweet one, my baby. Time to open those beautiful eyes." You reach the light and blink into the bright world. "Good morning, my dearest love" Your mother purrs– and you wake up.
An odd dream, you think as you stretch lazily in your nest. Yawning, bleary eyes glance around an empty den. Wait a minute. An almost empty den. Almost, because there was a mountain of grey fur practically falling out of a nest closer to the center of the den. What was once bleary was now wide awake, wild with a frantic energy that all but shrieked, "I'm late!" Apprentice or Warrior, in SkyClan, the earlier the better. Sleep is for the weak, no matter what dreams may come. Well, unless you're Stormtrail. That cat was still snoring away in his nest– but you know better than to wake him. The subtle rumblings of the Clan say that if he's up before sun high, then something bad will happen. The evidence is substantial but honestly you don't put stock in rumors. Hurrying out of the den, you can just about hear the rantings and ravings of Branchstar as your eyes adjust to the influx of light filtering into camp. Of course, you aren't exactly paying attention when Briarfrost pads up to you, eyes bleary and clearly relieved to see you.
"Your turn to watch him." Her words made you freeze, the fur along your spine prickling. "Oh no" the groan slipped past your teeth, ears flattening in an expression of despondency. "Yup. You were the last one out of the den. I took the night shift and Gnarledtooth said he'd take the afternoon water. Which means– you get the morning shift." A whimper is lodged in your throat, Bramblestar is insufferable in the mornings. As the male got older and more... forgetful, he's all but forced the warriors of SkyClan to make sure he doesn't wander off. Last time he was unwatched, he wandered down to the Thunderpath and was nearly run over if it weren't for some ThunderClan cats who were on patrol. As a result, the once proud leader now has to be babysat, and it makes him very, very grumpy. "Right. Gotcha." This is what you get for sleeping in. "Wish me luck," your words made her snort with amusement. "He's in a better mood this morning, has some sort of crazy idea. Try to talk him out of it."
Oh joy... you think as you head towards your fate, already feeling your energy draining as you got closer and closer to the leaders den. "Branchstar? It's me–"

Oooh yes, I can't wait for Halloween again! We've been going to a campsite for the past few years where they hold this Halloween party and stuff, it's really cool. People bring in a lot of good appetizers, there's music also a costume contest. Also, since this campsite is mostly trailers, we get to go trick-or-treating by all these trailers and we get a heck ton of candy. It's amazing~ :'D You're never too old for candy hahaha

There were Doritos's in place of the stars and it had "Dank Warrior" I guess it got fixed because when i refreshed it it was fine. Thank goodness for that.

Well before it was "Dank Warrior" with the stars replaced with Doritos. xD Now it's fine. I believe I saw a post somewhere talking about it and it's just apparently something that happens when you get 420 posts?

Apparently it's a one-time thing for people who get to 420 posts? So I guess keep an eye on people who are close to that? xD

Post by Sand 🎃 on Aug 23, 2016 10:58:55 GMT -5
There's screenshots in OTD xD Roswell added a "rank" for when someone reaches 420 posts.

Why 420 though? Is there some reference I don't have a clue about? xD
