I'm thinking of remaking a clan a friend of mine started on the original forums. I remade it there when she was banned, as well as here when this forum first began. I unfortunately went MIA, and so it died. I wish to restart it. Is anyone interested?
Sweetclan is a clan that have destined mates. Originally, it was just a m x f match, but since times have changed, I was thinking of adding m x m and f x f. The matching is completely random. You have to have a minimum of two cats, one male and one female. You learn about your match once you're a senior apprentice.
I was also thinking that maybe, (if you want) the cats of the same gender can also have kits, as a gift from the stars. Just say who is giving birth to them, though xD. The number of kits in a litter will be randomly generated between 1 and 14. I will then randomly choose male or female, and then generate a random number from the amount of kits in the litter to determine how many of those kits are male and female.
Example: Number of kits in litter: 13 Generate (1 is male, 2 is female): 1 Number of males generated: 6 Number of females left over: 7

I remember sweetclan from back then, if the clan you speak of is one and the same. it would be amazing to be able to see it return and have more possible pairing options. though the thought that pairings of the same biology being able to have kits is honestly wonderful, not something i've seen on the forums, unless its been done in my absentance.

SweetclanIntroductionTrudging through the mountains, you can't see anything but snow. It's wet, slippery, and dangerous. You dispair, yet feel determined at the same time. One small mistep, and you plunge to your death. The sun is high in the sky, and you can tell you're nearly at the peak. Hours you walk, until you hit that peak.
You collapse at the top, you strength sapped now that you're safe. You pull yourself until you can see the other side of the mountain. Looking down, you see a large basin.
In the centre, there is a large lake. It's blue, and absolutely beautiful. On the opposite side to you, is a large waterfall, flowing down the mountain range, feeding into the lake.
To the left is a large green forest, full of lush life. To the right, is a rather rocky area, full of caves. It ends near the lake. You can see cats moving up and down, entering the caves.
Right below you, is a large field of flowers and grass, with a single tree in the middle. You've arrived. You've found Sweetclan. AboutWelcome to Sweetclan. This is a clan from the original forums, created by my friend Starspirit1. I had remade it on the original forums when she was banned, then again here. Unfortunately, I went MIA for a few years. I'm back now, and am remaking the clan.
Sweetclan, is a cat matcher. Each cat will have a destined mate that is randomly generated. On the joining form, you will be able to determine your cat's preferences (tom x she-cat {ts}, tom x tom {tt}, she-cat x she-cat {ss}). Randomly generating the matches will end up with a lot of drama due to personality clashes, but that's what makes things fun, right? These cats will know when they become senior apprentices.
Tom x tom matches and she-cat x she-cat matches will also be able to have kits if they successfully end up as mates, but this is only if they were destined mates to begin with. Rules for this will be in the rule section below.
I hope you have fun with this Rp. Rules#1 Follow the rules The forum rules and the rules of this Rp must be followed. If you break any of them, you will receive two warnings, before you're deleted.
#2 Listen to the Mods As well as the owner (Pearl ), I will appoint 2 moderators for this Rp. You must listen to them.
#3 Respect Please respect everyone in this thread. Don't be rude as an individual. If your character is mean, then go right ahead. But outside Rping, please don't be rude to the others. (G)
#4 No Spamming Any troll or spam on this thread will be ignored and reported immediately. You can say "can such and such please report to whatever rp", but don't annoy the individuals Rping on this thread.
For the individuals Rping, if you spot any troll or spam, please report it immediately.
#5 Activity You have a life outside this Rp. I understand, and I will be absent at times, but please do not post on other threads, and ignore this one. If I find that you haven't been on the forums for two weeks, that's fine. I will put you on the inactive list until you return, or until a month has passed.
If you haven't been on the forums for a month, then I will delete you due to inactivity.
If you have been posting on the forum over the two weeks you've been absent on this thread, I will delete you immediately.
If you have something on, and you won't be on for more than two weeks, please tell the owner or a mod. (R)
#6 Literacy You must be literate. This means grammar, spelling and punctuation. It means full sentences. Now, I won't limit the amount of sentences you can type, but the minimum is four per post.
#7 Godmodding Do not say things like "your cat is the best hunter". Show how good they are at hunting through your Rping, but do know, that even the best miss at times.
Also, don't overpower every opponent you fight. There is always a give and a take. When Rping battle scenes, add your character's thought process. Don't just say "such and such raked so and so in the face to distract him, then rammed into his shoulder. She presses him down, and aims for his throat". Give your opponent time to show their battle strategy.
Godmodding and spotlighting are boring and annoying in Rp's. Just don't do it. (A)
#8 Joining Please provide details when writing up your joining form. We want to be able to picture your cat. When joining, please check the list of prefixes. Only two cats can have the same prefix.
#9 The Books For the purposes of this Rp, the books don't exist. I don't mind what you name your cat, as long as it abides by the guidelines and terminology.
#10 Characters Please do not creat a Mary Sue / Gary Stue. It will not be accepted. Give your character some strengths, but also give it weaknesses. Give them some flaws. If you're having troubles, use this generator:
#11 Realism Please make your cat as realistic as possible. Now, I don't mind it if you, for example, provide a white cat with red dapples or stripes. That's totally fine. But please don't give your cat weird colourings, like a purple pelt.
Pale blue eyed cats tend to be deaf.
Red eyed cats are albino. Show it.
If your cat is blind, add red (has to be really red) in the tissues of your cat's eye, or turn your cat's eyes cloudy / milky. (P)
#12 LGBT + It is allowed in this Rp. You can allocate what preference your cat has, but please keep it simple (hetero or same sex).
Cats with a preference for the same sex will be able to have kits, but only with their destined mates. Same sex mates that are not destined mates will not have this luxury. They can have a surrogacy/donor if they wish, but you must ask first. (E)
#13 Clan Positions The Clan Leader will be Rped by the owner or mod. It will begin with the owner, and when this one dies, the next Clan Leader will belong to a Mod.
The Deputy position will also belong to the first Mod. When the Deputy becomes Clan Leader, the next Deputy will belong to the second Mod, then back to the owner.
There will only be 3 medicine cats and 3 medicine cat apprentices.
#14 Queens and Kits You can join as a kit, but the kit will need a parent / guardian. Please ask if you want to become the kit of a character. If you want to join as an external kit, please ask who Rp's the character you want as the surrogate mother.
Queens who wish to stay long-term in the Queen den must have had at least 2 litters. (A)
#15 Character Ratios You must join with 2 characters. One male and one female. Apart from that, if you want to Rp more, you must stick to the 50 / 50 ratio of males and females.
#16 Role Playing I will provide an Rp post layout. You can customise it, but please stick to the general layout. When using colours, please use colours where you can read the text. (R)
#17 Rp Times Everyone will Rp on the same days at the same times. One day can last a week, but in that day, all apprentices must have had at least 1 battle session or 1 hunting session. Each cat must also interact with at least 5 cats. That's when a day will end.
There will not be any time-skips for certain cats. If a time-skip is to happen, it will be for the whole clan, and will not go less than 1 moon.
You must keep watch of your own cat's age. If it's time for the cat to become a senior apprentice, warrior, senior warrior or elder, please tell the owner or the mods.
#18 Plots Now, there was a plot for Sweetclan, but it didn't go so well. Therefore, there will not be any plots. If you have an idea for a plot though, talk it through with everyone. If all members agree, then we can go ahead with it. Do make it detailed though. (L)
#19 Code To make sure you've read the rules, you will have noticed letters in brackets at the end of certain rules. This is the code. Please type the code in the other section of the joining form.News & Events General Events ❀ [dd/mm/yyyy] Event

TerritoryThe territory is within a large basin, mountain ranges on all sides. Apart from entering through the mountains, there is a small passage leading out of the basin where the forest lay. In the centre of the basin, is a large lake. To the North is a large waterfall. To the South is a field with one tree standing in the centre. To the East is the forest. To the West is where the camp is located, in the caves in the mountain.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spring Lake Spring Lake is in the centre of the basin. It is a stunning blue, filled with the clean mountain water flowing from the waterfall. The lake is full of wildlife. The lake will freeze during leaf-bare, and flood during greenleaf.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Snowy Waterfall The Snowy Waterfall is to the North of the basin. Flowing down the waterfall, is the snow that has melted. It will freeze over in leaf-bare, and flood the lake during greenleaf.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tall Forest
The Tall Forest is to the East of the basin. The trees are extremely tall, and very few cats can climb them. The forest is green most times of year (even leaf-bare), though the leaves do sometimes change colour. There is a path to the far East of the forest, leading outside the basin. The Tall Forest is teeming with life, but also predators. Beware.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Love Fields The Love Fields are to the South of the Basin. This is an area where predators and visitors can come down from the mountain range. It is a field full of flowers and grass. In the centre of the field, is a large tree.
The Matching Tree The Matching Tree is in the centre of the Love Fields. Here is where The Matching is held.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Camp The Camp is to the West of the basin. In the West, there is a rather steep incline, before slowly filling out towards the bottom. This area is much closer to Spring Lake. It is very rocky. There are pathways up and down the incline, only reaching half-way, and caves.
Leader's Cave The Leader's Cave is where the Clan Leader resides. It is in the top-most cave that the pathways can reach. There is a relatively generous ledge where the Clan Leader can watch the members from. The cave has a bed made of moss, bracken and ferns in the innermost part.
Deputy Cave The Deputy Cave is where the Deputy resides. As the Clan Leader's second-in-command, the Deputy Cave sits to the right of the Leader's Cave and down a little. There is a small ledge, just large enough for the deputy to move around on. The cave is not as bit as the Leader's Cave. There is a bed in the innermost part of the cave.
Warrior Cave There are six Warrior Caves. They surround the other caves: three on both sides. They sit right under each other, and don't have a ledge. These caves are bigger than the Leader's Cave, and bedding lines the walls. About 12 warriors can fit in each cave. The caves don't have ledges because the warriors only sleep in them. Otherwise, they're elsewhere.
Nursery The Nursery is in the centre of all the caves. It is the largest cave with the largest ledge. The whole floor is lined with bedding, so the Queens are comfortable, and the kits don't get hurt. The ledge is for the Queens to lay around, taking care of their kits and basking in the sun.
Apprentice Cave There are six Apprentice Caves, much like the Warrior Caves. These Apprentice Caves are smaller, and have no ledge. The caves are lined under the nursery, all in a neat row. The walls are lined with bedding. 6 apprentices can fit in one cave.
Medicine Cat Cave The Medicine Cat Cave is on the ground, and prone to flooding during greenleaf. It's on the ground because the medicine cats are always moving. They have a very large cave, full of herbs they collect. There are indents in the cave walls where the herbs are kept. Each medicine cat has an area. The cave is split into three: North, East and West. There are three areas with indents, and a bed by each wall.
Medicine Cat Apprentice Cave The Medicine Cat Apprentice Cave is also on the ground. Much like the Medicine Cat Cave, the walls also have indents for herbs. Each medicine cat apprentice have their own section and stash. It is basically a mirror image of the Medicine Cat Cave.
Elder's Cave The Elder's Cave is on the ground. It is prone to flooding in greenleaf, but it is located on the ground because the elders are too old to move up and down the pathways. Here, they can sunbathe and move around as they please. The walls are lined with bedding. 24 elders can live comfortably in this cave.
Illness Cave The Illness Cave is right between the Medicine Cat Cave and Medicine Cat Apprentics Cave. This is where all the sick cats stay. It is between the two caves so that it's isolated from the others, and far enough away from the Elder's Cave so the elders won't be affected. The walls are lined with bedding.

Clan History The Beginning Juniper was the very first leader of Sweetclan. She was a loner, when she was contacted by the Stars. She had a precious gift; a gift where she could find a cat's destined mate. She had to meet them, however. And so, the Stars told her that she had to become leader of a clan; a clan where cats can find their destined mates.
To create this clan though, Juniper had to travel. She travelled long distances, meeting many different cats, and bringing many more into her fold. She brought them all the way to the mountains, where they found this basin. Here, the Stars told her that she could live happily with the clan, and train them. She sent out her cats to the different places she'd travelled, telling any and all cats, that they were always welcome to visit her clan if they wanted to find a match.'
During her travels, she met a tom names Tigerblade. They became good friends, and travelled together. This tom fell in love with Juniper, but as he wasn't her destined mate, she refused him. Tigerblade became angry, since the other cats agreed with Juniper's decision, and threatened to destroy them all. Seeing him as a threat to the clan, Juniper killed him.
Juniper, now Juniperstar lived a peaceful life with her clan, and she died of old age. Nearly all 9 of her lives were used up from illnesses that killed her in her elderly age. When she finally died her last life, Juniperstar became one of the Stars; a new star shining brightly over her clan.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Second LeaderSugarstar was the Clan Leader after Juniperstar. When Juniperstar died, she felt at peace, because her mentor and friend died of old age. Unlike Juniperstar's reign though, Sugarstar's reign was full of danger.This came from a prophecy given by the Stars to her sister, the lead Medicine Cat Joylight.The ProphecyThe breaking of the shadowed hawk and the passionate red song, will turn the streams to blood and bring about the death of many.With the help of the dark ripple, the red song of passion will hurt those closest to her, bringing about a battle that will allow the black shade and leafy jasmine to be reuinited with the quartet, only to sacrifice their life.The spilt blood will not be in vain, if the dark ripple is destroyed by the sweet sugar of life.It is not until then, that the whispering wind can gentle the red song of passion, ending the feud and bring about life.Cats of the Prophecy Redsong & HawkshadeAfter hearing the prophecy, Sugarstar was shocked. The clan hadn't participated in a battle before. She had to prepare. The very next day, two cats by the names of Hawkshade and Redsong arrived at the clan. It happened, that that night was a full moon, and the night of a matcher gathering.Redsong and Hawkshade came to the gathering, because they wanted to know if they were destined mates. Unfortunately, Sugarstar told the two that they had different destined mates. Hawkshade's just happened to be Whiteflower, a she-cat in the clan that Hawkshade had already felt attraction to.Hawkshade told Redsong that he felt attraction to Whiteflower, and wanted to try with her. Redsong was furious, and told Hawkshade that if he wanted to try with Whiteflower, then she will never take him back. Hawkshade apologised to Redsong, and walked away.Sugarstar watched the whole commotion, and felt uneasy. Redsong watched with fury for the next week, as Hawkshade and Whiteflower become closer. Finally unable to take it anymore, Redsong decided to turn rogue. She told the clan that she would be back for vengeance.Jasmineleaf & Shade Jasmineleaf was a cat that travelled with Juniper. Jasmineleaf was young when she fell in love with Shade. They were destined mates, and so settled down together in the clan. She was happy, and had four kits with him: Ash, Aspen, Blackshadow and Shadowtalon. After giving birth though, Shade disappeared with her two daughters, Ash and Aspen. Depressed and angry, Jasmineleaf never took another mate, and instead, adopted four other kits: Springpetal, Fireblaze, Dustbreeze and Whiteblizzard.Shade had a dark history. He used to be a part of a terrible group of rogues and loners. They killed and destroyed anything in their path. That was, until he met Jasmineleaf. He finally knew what love was. He left the group, and joined her. Unfortunately, just before Jasmineleaf gave birth to their four kits, Shade was found by that group once more. He was the strongest cat they had, and so they went after him. They threatened him with his mate and kits lives. Unable to bring them any harm, Shade gave in, and took his two daughters like they told him to. Shade protected Ash and Aspen as much as he could, until he destroyed every one of the rogues and loners. He knew, however, that Jasmineleaf would never forgive him, and so, when Redsong looked for cats to recruit, Shade joined her, bringing his two daughters along, hoping to protect the clan his mate loved so much. He was still strong, despite being an elder.RippleRipple was a dangerous tom. He never understood love, and so he killed his mother and siblings. He craved blood and death. Ripple, understanding that Redsong wanted to destroy a clan, became excited, and joined her crusade. He was unhappy with how Shade became the second-in-command, and looked for ways to kill the elderlly tom. He never succeeded. What he did succeed in, though, was becoming the whisper in Redsong's ear. He manipulated her, making suggestions on how to destroy the clan, and feeding her rage and anger.Windwhisper Windwhisper is a clan cat that came after Redsong and Sweetclan had had various skirmishes. When Sugarstar met the tom at the matching gathering, she found that he was the tom she was waiting for. He was Redsong's destined mate. She tried to talk to Redsong the next time they battled, but Redsong woudn't hear of it. Even Windwhisper tried to talk to her. He had spoken to Hawkshade before, and had an understanding of the she-cat. He even liked what he was hearing. Unfortunately, Redsong was too deep in Ripple's grasp, and wouldn't hear of anything but the extermination of Sweetclan.The Great Battle During the battle, Jasmineleaf found out that her mate Shade, and her two daughters Ash and Aspen were with Redsong. She personally heads over to see them. She at first didn't want to talk to Shade. She only wanted to see her two daughters, but eventually, her two daughters succeeded in getting her to talk to Shade properly. She was then told why he left in such a manner, and she forgave him.As the battle was raging on, Ripple spotted Jasmineleaf and Shade. Still salty about not being second-in-command, Ripple aims for the two elders. He attacks Jasmineleaf. She was able to claw his face, before dying. Stunned by the sudden attack, Shade was unable to do anything but watch his mate die before him. Full of grief, he attacks Ripple, and severely injures the tom, but also dies under Ripple's claws.Sugarstar is able to make her way to Redsong with Windwhisper. She tells Windwhisper to push Redsong away from the battle, so only the two were around, before heading off to where she saw Jasmineleaf die. Sugarstar attacks Ripple as the tom kills Shade, and snaps the tom's neck. Standing on the battlefield, Sugarstar feels the cruelty of war.The Aftermath By the end of the battle, Sugarstar had died twice, leaving her with 6 lives left. Sweetclan grieved for their losses, and eventually forgave the cats that attacked. Redsong, however, was unable to be forgiven.Windwhisper was finally able to get through to Redsong, and because of the grief she had caused, the two cats left the clan to live a peaceful life together.Hawkshade and Whiteflower had no more litters after their first, but lived happily.Sugarstar finally died of old age, much like Juniperstar. She passed on with her sister Joylight, and both she-cats became Stars.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Third LeaderThe third Clan Leader of Sweetclan is Songstar. This is her generation. Clan Traditions The Matching Ability The Matching Ability is what the cats of the clan call the ability given to each Clan Leader by the Stars. It's what allows each Clan Leader to match the cats they've met. It only works on a full moon though.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Clan Gathering The Clan has a gathering every new moon. All the members of the clan sit at the base of their camp, and look up at their leader sitting on the ledge of the nursery. The Clan Leader then discusses any changes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Matching Gathering The Matching Gathering occurs every full moon. All the unmatched cats gather at the Matching Tree, and listen to the Clan Leader who sits in the tree. Every full moon, the red flowers bloom that night. The cats sit in a sea of red.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Apprentice Ceremony The Apprentice Ceremony occurs on the first crescent moon. All kits above 6 moons have their ceremony at this time. This includes Medicine Cat Apprentices. Warrior Apprentices must complete basic guard and hunting techniques, before specialising. They will have to complete the basic assessment to become a senior apprentice, and then the specialised assessment to become a warrior. Medicine Cat Apprentices will follow the normal apprentices until they become senior apprentices, when the Medicine Cat Mentor will impart the knowledge of a Medicine Cat. Medicine Cat Apprentices will have to complete the basic assessment, then the herb and illness assessment to become a complete Medicine Cat. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Warriors / Medicine Cat Ceremony The Warriors Ceremony occurs on the second crescent moon. All apprentices who have completed their training will be given their warrior name at this time.
The Medicine Cat Ceremony will be held at the same time. That very night, the Medicine Cats and the Apprentice will go to the Matching Tree and rest a paw on one of the six roots. Here, the Medicine Cats will dream with the Stars, and the Apprentice will become a fully fledged Medicine Cat.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Medicine Cat Choosing Ceremony Not all cats have it in them to become Medicine Cats. All Medicine Cats are chosen by the Stars. At every half-moon, all the kits born in this period are placed on the Matching Tree. There, it will be decided if they become a Medicine Cat. The sign of a Medicine Cat is if the kit's fur lights up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Death Ceremony With every death, comes a ceremony. Cats who have the clan in their hearts become Stars. Cats who have turned to the dark side, become Black Holes. The Death Ceremony for these two types of cats is different.
The Stars Death Ceremony The Death Ceremony for Stars is simple. The Medicine Cats and apprentices surround the dead, and touch a part of the cat. Surrounding the Medicine Cats are the rest of the clan in rings. Each cat touches the cat in front of them, until there's a web-like pattern. The Medicine Cats pray to the stars, and the body slowly disintegrates into tiny light orbs. These orbs float into each cat, becoming a part of each cat. The cats have a poem:
When I am gone, release me, let me go.
I have so many things to see and do, You mustn't tie yourself to me with too many tears, But be thankful we had so many good years.
I gave you my love, and you can only guess How much you've given me in happiness.
I thank you for the love that you have shown, But now it is time I traveled on alone.
So grieve for me a while, if grieve you must Then let your grief be comforted by trust That it is only for a while that we must part, So treasure the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away for life goes on.
And if you need me, call and I will come.
Though you can't see or touch me, I will be near And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear All my love around you soft and clear And then, when you come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and a "Welcome Home". The Black Hole Death CeremonyThe cats who turned to the dark side are not acknowledged by the cats of Sweetclan. Therefore, the cats ignore these dead, and throw them outside the territory. There, the cats will turn into black orbs, and float away.

Allegiances Clan Leader Pearl
Songstar ❀ 72 Moons ❀ ♀ ❀ ts Sneak / Night Attacks ❀ Songstar is a lithe black she-cat with steel grey eyes. She is rather small, and looks more like an apprentice, than a warrior. Her eyes are larger than usual, but it makes her look cute. Her pelt is short, and she has some white flecks on her underbelly. Her tail is of a medium size in ratio with her small build, and her whiskers are quite short. ❀ Songstar is a very calm and collected she-cat. She is bright and intelligent, but she can also be rather selfish. There will be times where Songstar just ignores her duties for her own pleasure. Songstar is also sometimes very lazy. She loves to just bask in the sun, and sleep the day away. She will, however, put herself together, and complete her duty when she's needed most. The clan comes first to her, which is why, despite her flaws, she is now Clan Leader. ❀ Songstar grew up in the clan. It's all she knows. She grew up to a single mother. her father died before she was born. She always heard from her mother that her father was very selfish, arrogant and rather mean, but her mother fell in love with him anyway. Her mother died when she became an apprentice. She worked hard due to her smaller stature, and that hard work paid off in the form of her rank. Now that she's at the top, she'd rather relax than complete most of her duties. ❀ No Relationships Deputy ...Medicine Cat 1 ... Open Medicine Cat 2 ... Open Medicine Cat 3 ... Open Medicine Cat Apprentice 1 Pearl Cloudpaw (Cloudfall) ❀ 13 Moons ❀ ♂ ❀ tt Herbs
❀ Cloudpaw is a moderately sized white tom with clean green eyes. His pelt is extremely fluffy, hence his name 'Cloud'. His green eyes are a lighter shade of green with darker flecks in the centre. He has rather long whiskers, and a long, fluffy tail. ❀ Cloudpaw is extremely naive and innocent. His eyes are what gives his nature away. He has no idea about anything but herbs, and doesn't understand anything outside being a Medicine Cat. If a cat tells a joke, this joke goes right over Cloudpaw's head. Cloudpaw has a highly retentive mind. He can remember information instantly. This means that Cloudpaw doesn't have very good social skills. ❀ When Cloudpaw learnt that he was to be a Medicine Cat as a kit, he was ecstatic. The moment he learned about Medicine Cats, he wanted to be one. He always felt it was his calling, and so Cloudpaw would be seen trying to get down to the Medicine Cat Cave nearly every day. ❀ Cloudpaw has a littermate named Fawnpaw. His mother is Clearleaf, and his father is Dustleap. Medicine Cat Apprentice 2 ... Open Medicine Cat Apprentice 3 ... Open

Allegiances EldersNPC Whitefeather ❀ 169 Moons ❀ ♀ ❀ ss Hunting Birds
❀ Whitefeather is a small framed, fluffy white she-cat with black tipped ears and midnight blue eyes. She has daintily tiny paws and a long, extraordinarily fluffy tail that is almost as large as she is. ❀ She is gentle, sweet, cute, mischievous and innocent looking. She is kind and genuine as well. She loves her siblings and parents, cherishing every moment with them. She loves to complain, but always does it with a good nature. She loves to joke about, but when it comes down to the crunch, she is one of the most reliable cats you could ever have. She is incredibly loyal and bright, sometimes understanding things better than her sister Owlsong. ❀ Whitefeather found out about about the story of her parents and Redsong when she was a senior apprentice. She was so shocked because she'd never have thought that her father had a mate before her mother. She was closest to her mother. She had a slow and peaceful life. ❀ Her mother is Whiteflower. Her father is Hawkshade. Her littermates are Stormheart and Owlsong. NPC Stormheart ❀ 169 Moons ❀ ♂ ❀ ts Forest Attacks
❀ Stormheart is a huge plain grey tom with white paws and tail-tip, black tabby stripes and amber eyes. He is very strong and big, and everything about him screams that he is a great fighter. ❀ Stormheart has a strong sense of justice and right and wrong. He thinks his Clan is the coolest Clan ever and loves his parents and siblings incredibly much. He is the one in the litter that was born first, and takes most responsibility. Of the three siblings he is also the one that is closest with their father and Hawkshade is his absolute idol. ❀ Stormheart never knew about what happened between his parents and Redsong until he was a warrior. He had heard rumours about the fight as a kit, but never really took notice of it. He had a slow and peaceful life. ❀ His mother is Whiteflower. His father is Hawkshade. His littermates are Whitefeather and Owlsong. NPC Owlsong ❀ 169 Moons ❀ ♀ ❀ ts Water Combat
❀ Owlsong is an intelligent little she-cat with dusky brown tabby fur, grey tabby stripes, one huge amber eye, and one huge midnight-blue eye that looks very wise. ❀ Owlsong is, as mentioned before, very smart and that's her strongest side. But she also has a roaring lion inside her, just waiting to come out and claw anyone who threatens her clan or family. The fact that she's so smart can help in training, where she takes new moves very quickly. She can be both headstrong and stubborn and these are her worst sides that often get her in trouble. She is surprisingly enough a little rebel, and her intelligence doesn't stop her from being adventurous. In fact, she's one of the most adventurous cats in the clan. She already believes in the warrior code, and is full of pride for her clan. This can be both a strength and a weakness. ❀ Owlsong was the first to find out the reason for the battle when she was a kit. Her high intelligence helped her figure it out. She had a peaceful and slow life. ❀ Her mother is Whiteflower. Her father is Hawkshade. Her littermates are Whitefeather and Stormheart. Pearl Doesong ❀ 133 Moons ❀ ♀ ❀ ts Mammal Hunter
❀ Doesong is a light brown she-cat. She is small and looks rather delicate. She has an amazing sense of smell, and can smell even the most hidden prey. Her pelt is short, and her eyes are a beautiful green with darker green flecks in the centre. Her tail is a little shorter compared to the ratio of her body. Her whiskers are also short. ❀ Doesong is a fierce she-cat with a rather severe tongue. She will call you out if you're rude or doing something wrong. She will scold anyone, regardless of rank. ❀ Doesong has had a rather peaceful life, and is always scolding everyone, even her mate. She is never not scolding another cat. ❀ Her mate is Darkblaze. Her kits are Dustleap, Tawnywave and Mottlebreeze. Pearl Darkblaze ❀ 145 Moons ❀ ♂ ❀ ts Bear Hunter
❀ Darkblaze is a lithe and muscular tom with blue eyes. His pelt is short and dark brown with black stripes. His tail is long, as are his whiskers. ❀ Darkblaze is a little sadistic, and is a bit of a masochist. He loves listening to Doesong scold him. The more severe, the better, since he believes it's how she tells him she loves him. He gains gratification every time he watches his mate scold others. He is an exceptionally good listener. ❀ Darkblaze is a guard, but rather than battle techniques, what Darkblaze is known for is his ability to kill bears. No matter how big they are, no matter how injured he ends up, Darkblaze will kill them. ❀ His mate is Doesong. His kits are Tawnywave, Mottlebreeze and Dustleap. ... Open ... Open ... Open ...

She led the rest of her life in peace, and died of old age. ❀ Her littermate is Joylight.
NPC Joylight ❀ ♀ ❀
❀ Joylight is a beautiful jet black she-cat with silver paws and bright green eyes. She has long whiskers like her sister that makes her look kind and wise. ❀ She is exactly like Sugarstar, except she hates fighting and hunting.

Joylight was the cat the Stars gave the prophecy to. She was horrified, and told Sugarstar immediately. She saved many cats during the battle, and died of old age with her sister. ❀ Her littermate is Sugarstar. ... Open ... Open ... Open ... Open ... Open

Important InformationPermanent Queens
To apply to become a permanent Queen, your character must have had a litter already. It doesn't matter which gender, whether male or female. As long as they've had a litter of kits, they can become a permanent Queen.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Litters Litters will be determined by random generation. There can only be at most, 14 kits in a litter, so the number will be randomly generated from 1 - 14. Both males and females can give birth to a litter of kits, but for males, they have to be together with their destined mate. These kits will be a gift from the Stars. After the number of kits has been determined, I will randomly generate between 1 (male) and 2 (female). I will then randomly generate a number from the amount of kits in that litter. That will determine the number of toms and she-kits in the litter. Here's an example: Generated number of kits in litter: 13 Generate gender (1 is male, 2 is female): 1 Number of males (generated from 0 - 13): 6 Number of females left over: 7 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PregnancyIn reality, cats are pregnant for around 58 - 67 days. For the purposes of this Rp, a cat's pregnancy will be 2 moons. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Illness During Leaf-Fall and Leaf-Bare, the temperature drops. That means the cats fall ill. The kits and elders will fall ill in Leaf-Fall and Leaf-Bare, whereas all cats will fall ill in Leaf-Bare. This will be randomly generated. There are four illnesses: #0 ~ No Illness #1 ~ Whitecough #2 ~ Greencough #3 ~ Fever #4 ~ Chills There will be random generation between 0 and 4 to determine whether a cat is sick. If a cat is sick, it'll go through a second random generation to determine the severity of the illness: #1 ~ Weak #2 ~ Mild #3 ~ Severe #4 ~ Extremely Severe Weak means the cat will get better within a week. Mild means the cat will get better within a moon. Severe means the cat will have a chance to get better or die. This will take it to another random generation between 1 (survive) and 2 (death). Extremely severe means the cat will die. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wounds With every battle means wounds. All cats participating in the battle will be randomly generated to determine the type of wound they receive and its severity. The types of wounds are: #0 ~ No Wound #1 ~ Bleeding #2 ~ Internal Damage #3 ~ Sprain #4 ~ Joint Dislocation #5 ~ Broken Bones Then comes the severity of the situation: #1 ~ Weak #2 ~ Mild #3 ~ Severe #4 ~ Extremely Severe Weak wounds means wounds that will quickly heal. Mild means it'll take at least a few moons to heal. Severe is a random generation between 1 (survive) and 2 (death). If survival is chosen, then it's a choice between 1 (no infection) and 2 (infection). If infection is chosen, then it'll go back to life and death. Extremely Severe means the cat will die. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Travel & Accidents Travelling, cats normally get cracked pads, but this will be randomly generated. Each day, the cats in question will undergo random generation between 1 (no cracked pads) and 2 (cracked pads). They will also go through an accident generation between 1 (no accident) and 2 (accident). Of course, a cat can also have accidents around camp. The results of an accident are as follows: #0 ~ No Damage #1 ~ Internal Damage #2 ~ Sprain #3 ~ Joint Dislocation #4 ~ Broken Bones This is again followed by severity. #1 ~ Weak #2 ~ Mild #3 ~ Severe #4 ~ Extremely Severe These will follow the rules of wounds.

Medicine Cat: Then by the powers of the Stars I give you your true name as a medicine cat. (Apprentice), from this moment you will be known as (new name). StarClan honors your (virtues), and we welcome you as a full medicine cat of Sweetclan.
The medicine cat rests their muzzle on the apprentice's head, and they lick the mentor's shoulder. The other medicine cats greet them by their new name. Deputy Ceremony Leader: I say these words before the Stars, so that the spirits of our warrior ancestors (or former deputy) may hear and approve of my choice. The new deputy of Sweetclan is (warrior's name). Leader Ceremony The new leader goes to the Matching Tree with the Clan's medicine cat. After touching the stone, the new leader cannot move for a short period of time, because their old life is being ripped away so they can receive nine new ones. Upon awakening, cats of the Stars come down from the sky. Nine cats, normally ones who were significant during the new leader's life, although this is not always the case, give them their nine lives.
Life-Giver: (Touches nose to the top of the new leader's head) With this life I give you (gift). Use it well (to, in, as, for, etc.) (use of gift).
When all of the lives have been given, the first leader speaks.
First Leader: I hail you by your new name, _____star. Your old life is no more. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and the Stars grant you the guardianship of Sweetclan. Defend it well; care for young and old; honor your ancestors and the traditions of the warrior code; live each life with pride and dignity. Name Changing Ceremony The leader calls a Clan meeting at the second crescent moon, and performs the change.
Leader: Spirits of the Stars, you know every cat by name. I ask you now to take away the name from the cat you see before you, for it no longer stands for what he/she is. By my authority as Clan Leader, and with the approval of our warrior ancestors, I give this cat a new name. From this moment on he/she will be known as (new name), for (description of the reason). Elder Ceremony Leader: (Warrior), is it your wish to give up the name of a warrior and go to join the elders?
Warrior: It is.
Leader: Your Clan honors you and all the service you have given to us. I call upon the Stars to give you many moons of rest.
The Clan will call out the retired warrior's name and then they will go to the elder's den. An elder may receive a completely different name, with a different ceremony, than keeping their warrior name. Usually, an elder ceremony is held only when a cat retires due to old age. If they are forced to retire because of a severe injury, there is no ceremony. Warrior Code #1 Defend your Clan, even with your life. You may have friendships with cats from outside the Clan, but your loyalty must remain to your Clan, as one day you may meet them in battle.
#2 Elders 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.
#3 Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to the Stars for its life.
#4 A kit must be at least six moons old to become an apprentice.
#5 Newly appointed warriors will keep a silent vigil for one night after receiving their warrior name.
#6 A cat cannot be made deputy without having mentored at least one apprentice.
#7 The deputy will become Clan leader when the leader dies or retires.
#8 After the death or retirement of the deputy, the new deputy must be chosen before moonhigh.
#9 Boundaries must be checked and marked daily. Challenge all trespassing cats.
#10 No warrior may neglect a kit in pain or in danger, even if that kit is from outside the Clan.
#11 The word of the Clan leader is the warrior code.
#12 An honorable warrior does not need to kill other cats to win his battles, unless they are outside the warrior code or it is necessary for self-defense.
#13 A warrior rejects the soft life of a kittypet.

Ailments Chest Infections
Whitecough and greencough are the most common chest infections known to the Clan cats.
Whitecough is the milder form, but if untreated, it can develop into the much more severe greencough. Cats usually catch it during leaf-fall and leaf-bare, and sometimes it develops into large-scale epidemics. It can be fatal for elders and kits, and it has claimed the lives of several cats. It spreads quickly and is highly contagious.
Yellowcough causes fever, loss of appetite, diffculty breathing, delirium and sore throats.
Treatment Medicine cats treat it using catmint. If fevers accompany the cough, tansy or borage is used as well.
Yellowcough can be treated with lungwort. Poisoning
Poisoning is the ingestion of a substance that causes harm to the body. If only a small quantity of poison is ingested, the cat usually just receives a bellyache, but larger amounts can cause death. If a cat has been severely poisoned they may become unconscious for a length of time.
Treatment Medicine cats treat these bellyaches with yarrow or nettle leaves, while mild bellyaches can be treated with juniper or watermint. To make a cat potentially vomit the poison, immediately give them yarrow.
Loss of Sensory Perception A cat may lose their eyesight or hearing due to old age. Or from accidents and infections, or birth defects. These conditions usually end their career as a warrior, as they cannot hunt or fight efficiently, and must retire as elders. Kits born with defects usually die young, unless they have special skills compensating it. Kits that are white with blue eyes have a higher chance of being born deaf. Joint Aches A condition usually associated with elders, the joints gradually degenerating with age, causing pain and difficulty to move. Damp environments can cause the appearance of this condition.
Treatment Apprentices must make sure that the moss they gather for bedding is completely dry. It is usually treated using daisy or ragwort poultices. Toothaches A toothache is caused by a cracked tooth, cavities, or an infection in the mouth.
Treatment Alder bark is used to soothe the pain. Fever Fever is an abnormally high temperature of the body. It is not a disease in itself, but it usually signs the presence of an infection, such as greencough or an infected wound.
Treatment If needed, it can be treated with feverfew, borage, or lavender. Chills Chills are mostly associated with cold weather or being submerged in cold water for a long period of time. Although this condition is mild and is not a disease, it has claimed lives. Kits and elders are more at risk of dying when they get a chill.
Treatment Licking a cat's fur the wrong way gets the blood flowing again. A poultice of lavender, catmint and feverfew is also a good remedy. Wounds Wounds are injuries when the skin and the muscles beneath are torn, cut, or punctured. They may put a cat's life in danger due to blood loss, infections, or the damage of the organs. Wounds are the most common injuries, due to the cats always fighting enemy Clans, badgers, or foxes. Minor wounds heal on their own in no time, but severe wounds must be treated by a medicine cat.
Treatment This treatment includes cleaning it thoroughly with the tongue, stopping the bleeding by pressing cobwebs on it, and applying poultices to prevent infection and help it to heal. Herbs used in the poultices include goldenrod, marigold, burdock root or wild garlic. If the wound becomes infected, chervil or horsetail is used as well. The pain can be eased with poppy seeds or willow bark. Sprains Sprains are injuries to ligaments of a joint, caused by being stretched beyond their normal capacity and possibly torn. It causes severe pain and decreased ability to move the joint.
Treatment The cat must rest for several days. Joint Dislocation Joint dislocation is the displacement of a bone from its normal joint.
Treatment Medicine cats treat this condition by first feeding the patient poppy seeds to make them sleepy so they don't feel it as much, and then forcing the limb back into the joint. Cracked Pads The paw pads may crack while walking long distances on hard surfaces, or due to cold weather. Elders are especially prone to this condition.
Treatment It is treated with a poultice of coltsfoot or yarrow. Dock leaf poultices are also used to cool cracked pads. Broken Bones A broken bone is usually the result of an accident, such as falling down from a high place, or being hit by a monster. Cats most often break their legs, and while medicine cats try to bind the bone with cobwebs, the injury usually results in the cat remaining crippled for the rest of their life. A more severe injury is when a cat breaks their backbone. This results in the cat being unable to feel or move parts of their body. If the break is bad enough the cat will be killed on or shortly after impact.
Treatment It is best to possibly make the patient swim in shallow water in hopes of exercising the injured limb or coming up with exercises to fit the patient's need.

Battle Moves Basic
❀ Back Kick: Explosive surprise move to catch opponent from behind. Judge opponent's distance from you carefully, then lash out with your back legs, taking all weight on your front paws.
❀ Belly Rake: A fight-stopper. Slice with unsheathed claws against the soft flesh of the opponent's belly. If you're pinned down, the belly rake quickly puts you back into control.
❀ Front Paw Blow: Frontal attack. Bring your front paw down hard on your opponent's head. Claws sheathed.
❀ Front Paw Strike / Forepaw Slash: Frontal attack. Slice downward with your front paw at the face or body of your opponent.
❀ Killing Bite: A death blow to the back of the neck. Quick and silent and sometimes considered dishonorable. Used only as a last resort.
❀ Leap-and-hold: Ideal for a small cat facing a larger opponent. Spring onto opponent's back and grip with unsheathed claws. Now you are beyond the range of the opponent's paws and in position to inflict severe body wounds. A group of apprentices can defeat a large and dangerous warrior in this way. Watch for the drop-and-roll counter move, and try to jump free before you get squashed.
❀ Partner Fighting: Warriors who have trained and fought together will often fall instinctively into a defensive position, each protecting each other's back while fending off an opponent on either side. Slashing, clawing, and leaping together, battle pairs can be a whirlwind of danger for attackers.
❀ Play Dead: Effective in a tight situation, such as when you are pinned. Stop struggling and go limp. When your opponent relaxes their grip, thinking you are defeated, push yourself up explosively. This will throw off an unwary opponent and put you in attacking position.
❀ Scruff Shake: Secure a strong teeth grip in the scruff of your opponent's neck; then shake violently until they are too rattled to fight back. Most effective against rats, who are small enough to throw. A strong throw will stun or kill them.
❀ Tail Yank: Grab your opponent's tail and yank it with such force that your opponent is thrown off balance.
❀ Teeth Grip: Target your opponent's extremities – the legs, tail, scruff or ears – and sink in your teeth and hold. This move is similar to the leap-and-hold except your claws remain free to fight.
❀ Upright Lock: Final, crushing move on already weakened opponent. Rear up on back legs and bring weight down on opponent. If opponent does the same, wrestle and flip them under you. This makes you vulnerable to the belly rake, so it takes great strength and speed.
❀ Half-Turn Belly Rake: Turn onto your side, slip under the opponent's belly, rake it with your claws, then swiftly turn back onto all fours out from under your opponent.
❀ Badger Defense: Leap over opponent, turn on your back legs and bite opponent's leg. Used only when fighting badgers.
❀ Duck and Twist: Simple defensive move. The cat ducks then twists around, rolling over onto their back, and then springs to their paws.
❀ Jump and pin: Complicated move. Leap backwards, and bounce off the wall. With precise accuracy, land on the cat..
Specialised Advanced
❀ Rear-up to Slash: To hurt opponents coming from the air, this move can be used to rear up on the hind legs and slashing at the enemy.
❀ Attack Crouch: Crouching down to leap out onto your enemy.
❀ Tucking in the Tail: The less you give your enemy to hold on to, the better. This technique takes practice, as balancing with a tucked-in tail is tricky.
❀ Arched Back: Used to intimidate the opponent or to vent out anger.
❀ Shoulder Drop: This move is performed by grabbing the opponent's shoulders and then locking them against the ground. From here, the cat can do anything such as churning their hind paws against their spine.
❀ Roll Over: Used by rolling over to avoid an enemy's swipes or grip. Used to crush an opponent that is on your back. Badgers can crush cats this way.
❀ Duck and Headbutt: Used by ducking an opponent's blow and headbutting them in the chest, bowling them over. Dark ❀ Underbelly Slash: Dart under your enemy's underbelly, slashing at the back of their forepaws. When they twist, expecting you to emerge on the other side, back quickly out of the way you came. Hook your claws into your enemies fur, and drag them to the ground.
❀ Badger Defense ("Advanced"): An "advanced" Badger Defense. Leap over opponent, turn on your back legs, and, while turning, rake your claws on opponent's back. Then sink teeth into opponent's leg. Used only when fighting badgers.
❀ Spin Hind Kick: Flick your hind legs into the air while spinning around on your forepaws, then rear up rake at the enemy with your claws before tucking your head down and perform a forward roll.
❀ Hold And Enemy Collapse: Leap onto an enemy's back, and hold their head with your forepaws and use your hindpaws to knock their hindlegs out from under them, thus making them collapse to the ground. Forest Attack ❀ Move quietly and communicate with signals. Cracking twigs, startled birds, and rustling bracken will tell the enemy exactly where you are.
❀ Keep downwind of the trespassers so that your scent doesn't give you away.
❀ Look for freshly broken twigs, overturned leaves on the forest floor, remains of prey, or a clump of fur caught on a bramble. Any animal that moves through the forest leaves behind signs that its passed by-and signs like this could lead you straight to the invaders.
❀ Keep your mouth open to search for unfamiliar scents. Be careful: if there is scent when there is no breeze to carry it through the forest, it could mean that your enemy is very close by.
❀ Light-colored pelts are easily seen against brown and green foliage, so stay in the thickest cover. Keep low- the enemy will be looking for movement at normal head height, not close to the ground.
❀ Never miss an opportunity to perfect your tracking ability. In the nursery, kits sneak up on their mothers and pounce with their moss-soft paws. Apprentices leap out on one another from behind bushes and tree stumps. These are more than just games. One day, these skills could save your life and defend your Clan. Lightning Strike ❀ Crouch behind the enemy with your patrol unseen.
❀ Wait for the leader of the patrol to give the Attack Tail Signal.
❀ Spring squarely on top of the enemy, aiming for the ears, as they will bleed easily; caught by surprise, they should be easy targets.
❀ As fast as you attack, retreat back into the undergrowth.
❀ As the enemy lets its guard down, attack from an opposite angle; do this over and over until the enemy, thinking they are outnumbered, retreats. Night Ambush ❀ Hide in the shadows of the night with your patrol and your enemy spotted.
❀ Make sure your scent isn't drifting toward the attackers.
❀ Wait for the leader of the patrol to give the Attack Tail Signal.
❀ Strike your enemy fast and hard; the enemy will be caught off-guard with a battle at night.
❀ Cut off all your enemy's escape routes, encircling them with your patrol.
❀ If they try to attack, battle again. If they do not, let them through with a warning. Water Combat ❀ Double-Front-Paw Slap-Down: Splash water into the enemy's face with your front paws, temporarily blinding them.
❀ Underwater Leg Sweep (Front or Hind): Crouch under water, holding your breath. Sweep the legs from under your enemy as their head is raised above water-level; they struggle for breath, as other cats naturally panic underwater.
❀ Push-Down and Release: Wrestle your enemy under water. Keep their head below water-level until they surrender, as other cats don't know to hold their breath underwater.
❀ Underwater Clinch: Use your enemy's weight to hold them underwater. With a firm grip, raise them to the air so they can breathe, then send them under again. Do this repeatedly until the enemy gives up.
❀ Tail Splash: Similar to the Double Front-Paw Slap-Down, splash the water into your opponent's eyes with your tail, temporarily blinding them.
❀ Underwater Push-Off: Holding your breath, crouch below the water's surface. Aim an accurate pounce to the warrior on the water's edge, knocking them off-balance; the element of surprise should win you this battle.
❀ Rushpaw Splash: Flick a splash of water at a distance to create a decoy for the enemy, leaving room for a surprise attack. Speed & Agility ❀ Approach from Above Your Enemy: Gain high-ground. Wait for the leader of the patrol to give the Attack Tail Signal. Charge down your high ground; your enemy will be weakened by having to fight uphill.
❀ Use the Light from the Sun: Attack your enemy with the sun behind you, which should dazzle the enemy and block their view.
❀ Know Where the Wind is Coming From: If there is a strong wind, it should blow from behind you; that should hold them back and blur their vision with dust. However, if stalking, make sure the wind is blowing toward you, as it could give away your scent if blowing toward your enemy.
❀ Conceal the Size of Your Force: Have your attackers in sight from a distance. There are two options: either you can group your warriors together tightly, making you seem like a small attacking force. Your enemy may become overconfident, which is likely to lead to them making poor strategic decisions. Or, if your warriors spread out single-file, it will seem impossible to pass to advancing enemy warriors and may intimidate them. Attack the enemy.
❀ Attack Both Ends of the Enemy Line First: Attack both ends of your enemy's line, leaving the middle cats to fend on two fronts; this will leave them outflanked, vulnerable, and in disarray. Attack the rest of the enemies until they run.
❀ Keep Fresh Warriors in Reserve: Always keep strong, fit warriors to replace injured ones.
❀ Feigned Retreat and Ambush: A group of strong cats screech and attack the enemy line. The group of fit cats retreat; repeat this until the enemy line breaks. Other warriors, usually tunnelers, jump out of rabbit holes and dips in the ground on the other side of the attackers. Attack from both fronts until the enemy surrenders. Aboveground Combat ❀ The Sky-Crusher: Balance on a thin branch; make no sound. Land squarely on the enemy, claws unsheathed.
❀ The Flick-Over: Balance on a thin branch; make no sound. Land with all four paws outstretched on your enemy. Knock the opponent's feet from under him. Flip the enemy over to their belly; pin them to the ground until they surrender.
❀ The Kick: Balance on a thin branch; make no sound. Kick the enemy as you near the ground. Use the momentum of the fall to spring backward before the enemy has time to attack.
❀ The Slice: Balance on a thin branch; make no sound. Drop with claws unsheathed for maximum injury.
❀ The Branch Swing: Hold on to a branch with front claws as your back paws rake your enemy's face.
❀ The Reverse Branch Swing: Hold on to a branch with back claws as your front paws rake your enemy's face.
❀ The Trunk Spring: Balance on a thin branch; make no sound.
Slide down the trunk of your tree. Spring off the trunk with your back legs at head height to clear an enemy (good if tree is surrounded).
❀ The Reverse Climb: Pace backward as the enemy advances. Climb backward up the trunk to escape enemy; often followed by the Trunk Spring. Hunting Techniques ❀ General Rule: Keep upwind from your prey!
❀ Hunter's Crouch: Keep your body low with your tail sticking out straight ahead. Hind legs must be ready to leap and front paws must be ready to pounce.
❀ Fishing: When fishing, keep your reflection away from the water to avoid alerting the fish of your presence. When a fish comes, quickly hook your paw into the water and scoop the fish onto the bank. Kill it with one bite. Fish can still jump back into the water.
❀ Deep Water Fishing: To catch fish living deeper, dive into the river and swim above the shoal of fish. Pick them off from above.
❀ Squirrel Race: Speed is key for catching squirrels. You may start slow, but you must strike quickly. They will scamper up trees. They can be pursued into the branches, but you may end up injured. If the squirrel does end up in a tree, make sure when you try to catch it, you're running up the tree with the squirrel. Try to surpass it and chase it back down.
❀ Bird Leap: When a bird is aware it's being hunted, it'll fly up. You must leap as high as possible to drag it back down. When a bird is unaware, you must hunt it in short bursts of stalking to get close. Make sure to be ready for a leap to hook your kill, because as soon as you emerge, the bird will fly up.
❀ Bird of Prey: These types of birds must be hunted in groups. One cat is not enough. When stalking a mouse, birds of prey may also be eyeing it. A cat can initiate the attack by jumping on the bird's back. Others grab its wings, preventing flight, and the last will kill it.
❀ Mouse Stalker: Keep your paws light on the ground. Try to slide them without making a sound. The mouse will feel the vibrations of your feet before it sees or hears you.
❀ Rabbit Fishing: If you can't find rabbits, find the rabbit hole. Make sure there's a rabbit inside. Wait for it to come out. When it does, scoop it out like when fishing. If there are rabbits out in the open, chase the rabbit if you're fast enough. For slower cats, stalk it very slowly and very, very quietly. A misplaced paw will give you away instantly.
❀ Frogs: Frogs are tricky. A big jump into the frog will catch it. If you miss, give chase.
❀ Voles / Shrews: Voles and shrews are alike. Hunt them in a crouching position. Kill them quickly because they're known to squeal when caught.

Yes you can. The joining page is in the clan subpages, and the actual main rp is in the fan clans.
