 INTRODUCTION
Hi guys! I've got a few plots that I've been musing and I reckon they'll be pretty neat! Like most plots, I think it's a good basis, but there's still tons of context and information (and post-plot) details that we can add!
Please adhere to these few rules:
- I would prefer quality over quantity in terms of posts, so please keep your posts descriptive. I won't set a limit considering sometimes there's more to type out than others drama wise (we all know those slow paced but necessary talking moments lol). There is an expectation that my RP partner can type out an average of 2 or 3 paragraphs per post, sometimes more and sometimes less.
- As mentioned, I value quality over quantity. I would rather 1 meaningful post a week then 5 halfhearted ones. If you don't have the brainpower or time, please don't stress about forcing yourself to reply! Even if you duck in when you can, I'll be happy with a "hello, I can't post right now but I'm still interested!".
- Follow all forum rules!
- Only claim 1 plot.

 THE MISSING APPRENTICE -
CLAIMED
[--]paw and Windpaw are denmates and are rather... opposite. Windpaw's overly energetic attitude often leads them to making rash decisions in which [--]paw gets dragged in to clean up the mess. So, on a particularly drizzlely morning when Windpaw wakes [--]paw, eyes aglow with the promise of adventure, [--]paw declines to engage. Disheartened, Windpaw lays back down in their nest and [--]paw drifts back to sleep. When they wake, Windpaw is gone.
Knowing that Windpaw will get in trouble for taking off alone, [--]paw begins to silently search for their friend, although the poor weather makes it difficult to follow Windpaw's scent trail. [--]paw must attend to their own duties and so their search is halted, although they are not stressed. Even in the worst of Windpaw's rash decisions and foolish adventures, he always returned to his nest after a scolding from his mentor.
Yet when [--]paw sat to eat their evening meal Windpaw was no where to be seen. Even the warriors were arranging search parties for him, and his mother was starting to act frantic. Like many, [--]paw felt frustration at though of Windpaw causing so much trouble for the Clan. [--]paw fell asleep that night with a nagging sensation of dread.
In their dreams, [--]paw heard Windpaw's voice. [--]paw was stood in a wide open field with a heavy layer of fog looming just above their ear tips. Windpaw's voice called out desperately, breathlessly, with a hitch to his tone that [--]paw hadn't ever heard before. [--]paw, in a panic, called back and began racing through the grass to find their friend. [--]paw woke a shivering mess and jolts up, knowing one thing for sure: they must find Windpaw.
So for this plot I envisioned Windpaw having disappeared because:
A. he was taken by twoelgs
B. he is being held prisoner, perhaps in a rogue group (who may wish to start an uprising)
C. he was actually killed by another animal (like a mountain lion) and was lost from StarClan, hence the need to find him
Personally I am leaning more towards B as it has the most plot potential I think, but C would be cool too maybe. I was thinking that when [--]paw goes out to search for Windpaw after their dream, another apprentice joins them on the journey and so it's more of a bond that forms between the two journeying apprentices. I think it would create the best dynamic if the two journeying apprentices are rather so-so or dislike each other.

 THE LAST WARRIOR
Amidst the heart of a storm, Muse A is shocked to see the form of a lonesome cat from their barn window. It wasn't often a visitor stumbled by the barn and from the way the cat trod sullenly through the whipping winds and harsh rain, they clearly weren't in the best shape. Muse A braved the wet and the wind to approach the cat and with a small bit of coercing, Muse A convinced Muse B to join them in the barn until daybreak brought light and better weather.
Inside the warm barn filled mouse scents, Muse B feels fidgety and uncomfortable. After some inquiring from Muse A, Muse B shares their reason for being alone outside in the ferocious storm:
They are the last warrior from [--]Clan. A terrible illness has swept through not only their clan, but their rival clan too, leaving every cat at the mercy of death. Anyone who catches the illness perishes within a short amount of time and Muse B was lucky enough to have not fallen ill. When their medicine cat died two sunrises ago, Muse B was sure that they would all die. However, they were visited from StarClan and were told of a healing herb that was located some ways away. Although Muse B knows it is the only chance of survival, they are also wrecked with guilt knowing that they have left their clan behind to go on the journey.
In a spur of the moment decision, Muse A offers to join the quest with the point that they know this area better than anyone. So, the pair set out to find these unique herbs to bring back to the clan - but the difficult times have only just begun.
This plot is more straightforward, the premise is simply 'clans dying from illness, one cat goes to get the medicine and meets a stray along the way'. In order to add some spice I thought it would be cool if the last warrior cat comes back to the clan as his leader and dying, and because he brought the herbs back he is swiftly appointed as the clans deputy. So now they isn't only dealing with the grief of losing their clanmates but they are also thrown into a leadership role in what is the hardest ordeal the clan has faced.
I am trying to think of more ideas for Muse A and what hardships they may face (other than likely joining the clan during the same hard time). So we can juggle ideas when the time comes for that!

 THE STEADFAST RIVALS - CLAIMED
CatA is a warrior from ClanA who has always had a rivalry with CatB from ClanB. The two were born within sunrises of each other and apprenticed at the same time, so each milestone is reached at the same time. Whether it is because they have differing personalities, or whether it's due to their close age, or maybe because their mentors also seemed to have something to prove when they were apprentices; the two are rivals.
For a few days the weather had been smelling of rain and dark with storm clouds, and so when it finally broke, the typhoon hit hard. ClanA sits at the bottom of a slope and their territory was swiftly engulfed in floodwater, leaving the clan to flee up to the slope towards ClanB. Luckily, ClanB allows ClanA to stay in their territory as long as the floodwaters are still causing their territory to be unlivable.
Comedically, CatA and CatB seem to always be paired for hunts, patrols, or chores. Initially they argue and fight, but as time progresses they seem to be forming a bond. When it is time for CatA to return home, they feel conflicted with their feelings.
Typically forbidden romance plot with rivalry details; you know the drill! xD

Okie dokie! I'm going to go to bed because I'm sleepy and I'll finish the 3rd plot in the morning. I think the first two are done though so people can claim those and we can discuss them more C:

hello! I haven't RPed om this forum in a long time (I've moved onto more "adult" forums not based on Warriors), but I've been RPing for about 10 years. my interest in Warriors has been renewed and I'm looking to get back into RPing here. I'm interested in The Last Warrior, but I'd also like to see what you have for Steadfast Rivals!

โญ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐-๐๐๐๐๐ ;; thanks for your interest! ^-^ Honestly I've been away from RPing for half the year due to life being busy, but now that my university semester has ended I'm feeling free and full of muse xD I'll type up the rival plot now, but essentially the basis is that two cats from different clans are rivals for some reason (perhaps they just have difficult personalities or maybe their mentors had been rivals when they were both apprentices). Unfortunately a natural disaster strikes and ClanA is abandon their territory due to extreme flooding. Because ClanB lives on a higher slope they are mostly safe so ClanA ends up staying with ClanB. The rivals now end up (almost comedically) stuck doing patrols and chores together often, leading them to initially peeve each other to no end. However, as these things always do, it ends up in the pair garnering feelings but the clans separating back to their own territories.

โญ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐-๐๐๐๐๐ ;; oh yay, freedom soon for you too! what a wild ride this year has been haha.
I'm totally down to do the rivals plot! I love a good rivalry-turned-romance plot lol. For this plot there are the two clans so I usually will opt for both of us to create a clan each and as we RP we can have moments of interactions with the side characters. It also means that when the plot gets stale between the MCs we can create another plot with other characters involved! Does that sound good?

Feathertalon ;; neat! C: based on the potential options for what happens to Windpaw, was there one that you liked most? Or feel free to throw out your own ideas too! I mostly had the concept for that one down but wasn't exactly sure the best 'ending' for it lol!

aether I'll be CatB. would you prefer to play a tom or she-cat? i'm also completely fine with mxm, fxf, or other relationships.
second question, what type of setting are the clans going to be in? just a regular forest setting like at Four Trees, a lake setting, or something else?
last thing, lol. do you want to make a thread for the rp or do you want me to?

I really do like the rogue option! I feel like it has a lot of potential and we could do a lot with it ^^

โญ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐-๐๐๐๐๐ ;; I don't really have any experience with mxm/fxf/etc so I prefer mxf! I feel as though I'm better at RPing a tom, if that's okay with you?
Also I was just thinking myself. I think it would make sense if ClanA lived in an area where it WOULD flood right? So near a river or maybe they have a marshy area in their territory where water does not escape efficiently. I figure that ClanB will have a more stereotypical territory like ThunderClan from the OG territories? What are your thoughts?
I am happy to make a thread, I'll do that in like ~15 mins! ^U^
Feathertalon ;; awesome! yeah I think it has plenty of plot potential too! For this plot I have already made it so that I am Windpaw, you are [--]paw, and I'll also RP another apprentice who tags along with [--]paw on their quest to find Windpaw. We can make a clan and fill it ourselves with side characters as well as plan some ideas around this rogue group! I will make a thread for this plot shortly, I'm just not at my PC right now Cx

parisiansteve actually here's a thought! We can either do the plot I've written up here, or if you wanted, we can do the plot to the RP Roots I made a lil while ago?
I don't want to make a group RP again since I find it hard to maintain when things get busy IRL however I really liked the plot and doing it 1x1 means we can really get to build every character and have endless plots, I reckon.
If you would rather do the The Last Warrior plot that's cool, I like that one too! But just wanted to put the option out there!

aether wait yes! I'm so down to continue Roots. I think it would work really well, and I'm interested to see where the Robinflight and Ashwhisker dynamic ends up, as well as the Olive x Ashwhisker, if that's still a thing. oh, and Rookpelt and Bur! I miss all of these characters. I think we could take it really far.
How would you feel about incorporating some sort of prophecy into it later on? Something I've been thinking of lately - could be fun if we wanna throw something in the mix later, once things are fleshed out.

Post by aether on Dec 29, 2021 20:58:24 GMT -5
parisiansteve yesss okay this will be great! There was a bunch of good characters and plots that we never got to flesh out in that RP so I'm keen for it! I'll get that page up.
100%! It would be awesome to do something like that. I actually can't remember the last time I did a prophecy plot so that'll be awesome.

aether woohoo! grand c:
Do you wanna pop back into the Roots original thread, or do you wanna make a new one? I'm fine either way! once I review some of our characters - and maybe we make a few new ones? - I can start brainstorming prophecy idea. Maybe something with apprentices, to foreshadow a new plot while we're working through the original stuff? Open to any ideas!

Post by aether on Dec 29, 2021 21:13:56 GMT -5
parisiansteve Was gonna make a new thread, Roots is locked Cx but I'm bringing all off the info from the old thread across, luckily i saved it in my drafts so it's super easy lol!
yeah, i'mma gonna be making some other characters, but we don't need a huge group to start since more characters will be added and introduced as the plot progresses
