Ignisclan IntroductionTrudging on the hot rocks, you have no idea where you are. All you see before you is a tall mountain-like shape that was extremely hot to the touch. You can barely keep still from excitement. You can feel the fire element surrounding you. All of a sudden, you're surrounded by a fiery wall of flame. Jumping back in shock, you look around, only to see your path blocked.
"Who are you?" you ask, astonished. You had no idea the cats were there.
"We're the cats of Ignisclan. Why are you trespassing on our land?" a slender ginger tom asks.
"I'm just looking for a home," you say softly.
"Why did you come here, outsider?" the tom asks.
"I can feel the heat, the element of fire."
The tom looks at you curiously. "You have an affinity for fire. Follow us." He walks away and the wall of fire disappears. The other cats surround you, and they escort you to a tunnel.
"Follow," the ginger tom says shortly before entering the tunnel. You follow with the cats right behind. The ginger tom takes you to a large underground pool that glows. "Drink from the pool."
You hesitantly step forward and lap a little of the glowing water.
"Lie down, close your eyes and place a paw in the pool," the ginger tom orders. You do as he says. Soon you fall into a deep sleep. You see nothing but darkness at first. Slowly, you begin to see many small red lights. You hear a quiet buzzing in your ear, but you have no idea what it is.
"You can see us, can't you?" a small voice asks.
"Who are you?" you call out.
"We're the red lights. We're fire elementals," the voice says softly.
"Welcome to our home," another says closer to your ear.
"If you can see us, then you're a fire user."
"Welcome to Ignisclan!" You wake to the sound of the clan's name.
"What was that?" you gasp in surprise, jolting to your feet.
"That was the fire elementals welcoming you," the ginger tom meows, looking at the pool. "That means you can join us since you have the ability to manipulate the element of fire. What you just drank from was the Elemental Pool. It connects us with the fire elementals that were once our ancestors. When we die, we become something pure. We're reborn into the clan after 50 moons as a fire elemental. After 50 moons in that pure state, we return to the Earth to be born once more into Ignisclan."
He turns to you. "I'll repeat their welcome. Although you'll be given a trial run, welcome to Ignisclan." AboutThis is an 8 clan Rp. Ignisclan is the clan of fire. Cats of this clan can manipulate fire and its sub-elements. The other clans are Hydroclan, Aeroclan, Geoclan, Xyloclan, Luxclan, Umbraclan, and Astralclan. These 7 clans make up the elements of water, wind, earth, wood, light, dark and spirit.
These sub-elements of fire are only a guide. If you think of something new, please tell us, and it'll be added to the list. Each clan has a specific elemental bloodline. For Ignisclan, it's fire. When you have kits of two different clans, sometimes the kit will have aspects of one parent and not the other. And sometimes there is a fusion of both parents abilities. Here is the list.
Fire: This is basic fire manipulation and creation. It is common. (2 / unlimited)
Lava: This ability is for those with a Fire/Earth bloodline. It is lava manipulation. It is common. (0 / unlimited)
Lightning: This is lightning manipulation and creation. It is uncommon. (2 / 10)
Plasma: This ability is for those with Fire/Wind bloodline. It is super rare. Plasma is super heated matter that is found in nuclear weapons. (0 / 1)
Thermal: This ability is for those with Fire/Water bloodline. It is the ability to utilise the temperature, warming or cooling. It is uncommon. (1 / 10)
Solar: This ability is for those with Fire/Light bloodline. It is the ability to use both heat and light elements together. It is rare. (1 / 5)
Weather: This ablity is for those with Fire/Water/Wind bloodline. It is the ability to change the weather with the fusion of three bloodlines. This is rare. (1 / 5)
Attribute Imbuement: This ability is for those with a Fire/Wood bloodline. This allows a cat to imbue an element into a plant to help it grow in a different environment. It is super rare. (1 / 1)
Glass: This ability is for those with Fire/Earth bloodline. This ability is to manipulate and create glass. It is rare. (0 / 5)
Laser: This ability is for those with Fire/Light bloodline. It is the use of lasers. It is uncommon. (1 / 10)
Apart from the cats who have an affinity for fire. There is also one cat who can live in any territory. It is a very rare cat that is only born twice in a lifetime. The second is born near the end of the first's lifespan.
Fate: These cats have power over prophecy and destiny. They know everything about another cat's fate, though they never really speak of it. Only when a prophecy comes, do they speak about their abilities. Otherwise, they're probably the most normal. They will have dreams sometimes of another cat's future. Other times, they can walk in the dreams of others.
Ignisclan also has two abilities that all fire users have.
Heat Resistance
Fire Resistance
I hope you have fun with the fiery Ignisclan.
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.
If you haven't been on the forums for half a year to a year, you will be deleted.
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:
Flaw Generator (Y)
#11 Realism
This is an elemental Rp. You can have weird colours as long as it suits your cat's power. An example would be a purple pelt for a lightning elemental cat. The same goes for eye colour. (P)
#12 LGBT +
It is allowed in this Rp. You can allocate what preference your cat has, but please keep it simple (hetero, homo or bi).
Cats with a preference for the same sex will be able to have kits, through a surrogacy/donor if they wish, but you must ask first. (E)
#13 Clan Positions
The Clan Leader will be Rped by the owner at first. The rper of the deputy will be the next leader.
There are two Diviners, but the second will only be born when the first is 156 moons old.
There will only be 3 Healers and 3 Healer 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 or a disability. (A)
#15 Character Ratios
You can join with one character, but please try to keep the ratio between males and females as 50/ 50 as possible.
#16 Powers
The cats cannot be overpowering. They must have some flaw in their ability, like they can't control it or their they can only control if after something happens. (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 3 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 more 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 is no plot for Ignisclan, but if you have an idea for a plot, talk it through with everyone. If all members agree, then we can go ahead with it. Do make it detailed though. (L)
#19 Warrior Name
The warrior name of all apprentices will be decided by me.
#20 Elementals / Dark Elementals
When a cat dies and becomes an Elemental or Dark Elemental, that Elemental will become an NPC.
#21 Code

Territory
Ignisclan territory is quite large. The camp is located in the active volcano on the eastern side of the territory. On the western side is a pool made of fresh water surrounded by palm trees. Ignisclan territory continues until the moat that surrounds the Gathering Island. Ignisclan borders Luxclan (North), Xyloclan (South) and Geoclan (South-West).
Calor Volcano The camp is located in this volcano that's found to the east of Ignisclan's territory. Everything surrounding this volcano is terribly hot.
Palma Forest Palma Forest fills the remainder of Ignisclan territory, made of palm trees. to the west There are open areas where the lava surfaces. Inside Palma Forest is a pool of warm water.
Calidum Pool Calidum Pool is found within Palma Forest. It is a warm pool of fresh water and located in the north-west part of the Palma Forest.
Patet Moat Patet Moat is to the west of the Palma Forest. It's a cold fresh water body that leads to the Gathering Island.
Elemental Pool Entrance This is the entrance to the Elemental Pool where cats are blessed with their elemental affinity.
Camp
Caves and tunnels inside Calor volcano is where the camp is located. There is only one entrance and exit to the camp at the base of the volcano. Due to the fire elemental nature of the volcano, the prey in Ignisclan have a tendancy towards controlling fire.

No cat really knows how the 8 Clans came to be, nor do they know why cats were chosen as the preferred animal to be reborn into. All the cats knew, was that they were elemental beings that were born as cats in a cycle. They could go long spans without being reborn, but each rebirth was a clean slate unless they turned dark. Usually, an elemental was beautiful. In addition to the colour of its element, an elemental would look like a galaxy of stars. When they turn dark or evil, however, those lights in the elemental dim and a hazy mist leaks from the elemental. Although dark elementals are reborn too, they tend to be born with disabilities until that hazy mist disappears and their light shines once more.
Ignisclan Ignisclan is the clan where the fire elementals gather. Ignisclan is known for their fights since their powers are best for attacking. Their history begins with Ignisstar who was the very first leader of Ignisclan. They don't know much on how they started. but they do know key figures.

Important InformationPermanent Queens
To apply to become a permanent Queen, your character must have had two litters or have a permanent disability.
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. For same sex mates, they can have surrogacy or adopt a kit.
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. Because cats are fertile all their lives, cats can end up pregnant even as elders, so be careful.
Every 3 moons, there will be a random generation to determine whether a mated cat will end up pregnant. #1 Not Pregnant #2 Pregnant
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.

Ceremonies
Apprentice CeremonyThe Clan Leader calls a Clan meeting at the half moon to appoint a new apprentice and assign a mentor to them.
Leader: (Kit), you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as ___paw. Your mentor will be (Warrior) . I hope (Warrior) will pass down all he/she knows on to you.
The leader calls up the warrior he/she has chosen as a mentor.
Leader: (Warrior), you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from (Warrior's Mentor), and you have shown yourself to be (quality) and (quality). You will be the mentor of (Apprentice), and I expect you to pass on all you know to (Apprentice).
The mentor touches noses with the apprentice, and the Clan greets the new apprentice by calling out their name before the mentor takes the apprentice to the Elemental Pool.
Healer Apprentice CeremonyThe Leader calls a Clan meeting at the half moon. The Clan's Healer announces that they wish to mentor an apprentice.
Healer: Cats of Ignisclan, as you know, I will not be around forever. So it's time I took an apprentice. I have chosen a cat who has shown the virtues of a Healer. Your next Healer will be (Kit).
Leader: (Kit), do you accept the post of apprentice to (Healer)?
Kit: I do.
Leader: The from this moment on, you will be known as ___paw.
Healer: Tonight you must come with me to the Elemental Pool to receive your blessed ability as an apprentice. Then, on the night of the new moon, you must come with me to be accepted formally by the Elementals before the other Healers.
The mentor touches noses with the apprentice, and the Clan greets the new apprentice.
Night of the new moon, the Healer goes with the Apprentice to the Elemental Pool to present them to the Elementals, where the Apprentice confirms their wish to be a Healer.
Healer: (Apprentice), is it your wish to enter the mysteries of the Elementals as a Healer?
Apprentice: It is.
Healer: Then come forward.
Healer: Elementals, I present you with this Apprentice. (He/she) has been chosen to pursue path of a Healer. Grant (him/her) your wisdom and insight so that (he/she) may understand your ways and heal (his/her) Clan in accordance with your will.
The Healer Apprentice touches his/her nose to the Elemental Pool. Then the Healer and the Apprentice lay down and share a dream with the Elementals. Warrior CeremonyThe Clan Leader calls a Clan Meeting and call the apprentice.
Leader: I, Glowstar, Leader of Ignisclan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. (He/she) has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend (him/her) to you as a warrior in (his/her) turn.
Leader: (Apprentice), do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?
Apprentice: I do.
Leader: Then by the powers of the Elementals, I give you your warrior name. (Apprentice), from this moment you will be known as (new warrior name). The Elementals honour your (virtues), and we welcome you as a full warrior of Ignisclan.
The leader rests their muzzle on the apprentice's head, and the apprentice licks the leader's shoulder. The rest of the Clan then greets the new warrior by calling them by their new name. The warrior will sit a silent vigil guarding the camp that night, except if that is not possible. Dying Warrior CeremonyLeader: I ask my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. (He/She) has learned the warrior code and given up (his/her) life in the service of (his/her) Clan. Let the Elementals receive (him/her) as a warrior. (He/She) will be known as (new name).
Healer CeremonyOnce the Clan's Healer is satisfied with the apprentice's knowledge, they go to the Elemental Pool at the new moon. This is the only ceremony that is not performed by the Leader.
Healer: I, (name), Healer of Ignisclan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. (He/she) has trained hard to understand the ways of a Healer, and with your help (he/she) will serve (his/her) Clan for many moons.
Healer: (Apprentice), do you promise to uphold the ways of a Healer, to stand apart from rivalry between Clan and Clan and to protect all cats equally, even at the cost of your life?
Apprentice: I do.
Healer: Then by the powers of the Elementals I give you your true name as a Healer. (Apprentice), from this moment you will be known as (new name). The Elementals honor your (virtues), and we welcome you as a full Healer of Ignisclan.
The Healer rests their muzzle on the apprentice's head, and they lick the mentor's shoulder. The other Healers greet them by their new name. Leader: I say these words before the Elementals, so that the spirits of our warrior ancestors (or former deputy) may hear and approve of my choice. The new deputy of Ignisclan is (warrior's name). Leader CeremonyThe new Leader goes to the Elemental Pool with the Clan's Healers. After touching the Pool, 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, the Elementals come down from the sky. Nine Elementals, 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 Elementals grant you the guardianship of Ignisclan. 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 CeremonyThe leader calls a Clan meeting, and performs the change.
Leader: Elementals, 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). 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 Elementals 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 Do not hunt or trespass on another Clan's territory.
#3 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.
#4 Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to the Stars for its life.
#5 A kit must be at least six moons old to become an apprentice.
#6 Newly appointed warriors will keep a silent vigil for one night after receiving their warrior name.
#7 A cat cannot be made deputy without having mentored at least one apprentice.
#8 The deputy will become Clan leader when the leader dies or retires.
#9 After the death or retirement of the deputy, the new deputy must be chosen before moonhigh.
#10 A Gathering of all eight Clans is held at the full moon during a truce that lasts for the night. There shall be no fighting among Clans at this time.
#11 Boundaries must be checked and marked daily. Challenge all trespassing cats.
#12 No warrior may neglect a kit in pain or in danger, even if that kit is from outside the Clan.
#13 The word of the Clan leader is the warrior code.
#14 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.
#15 A warrior rejects the soft life of a kittypet.
#16 Each Clan has the right to be proud and independent, but in times of trouble they must forget their boundaries and fight side by side to protect the four. Each Clan must help the others so that no Clan will fall. |

Ailments
Chest InfectionsWhitecough 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. PoisoningPoisoning 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 PerceptionA 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 AchesA 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. ToothachesA toothache is caused by a cracked tooth, cavities, or an infection in the mouth.Treatment Alder bark is used to soothe the pain. 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. ChillsChills 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. WoundsWounds 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 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 DislocationJoint 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 PadsThe 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 BonesA 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. 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. ㊋ 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.
㊋ 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.
㊋ Voles / Shrews: Voles and shrews are alike. Hunt them in a crouching position. Kill them quickly because they're known to squeal when caught. |

Dovesplash lay in the heat of her den, bored. The deputy's den sat across from the leader's den. The leader being Glowstar and her deputy, Dovesplash, herself. Dovesplash prided herself in becoming deputy. It was an achievement after all. Dovesplash was one step closer to leadership. Unfortunately for her, Glowstar still had many lives left. Dovesplash wasn't the nicest, she knew that, but she was going to be a good deputy, and good deputies don't attempt to kill their leaders just so they can become the leader themselves. She could settle for being deputy if it meant helping out her Clan, that's what Dovesplash truly cared about.
(got a post for Dovesplash now)

Glowstar looks around for her apprentice. Kestrelpaw only had four more moons before he was eligible to become a warrior, though she didn't know if he was ready. She had experience mentoring, but Kestrelpaw was constantly late and a little cowardly. She had no idea how to get rid of that cowardly side of his. He was kind though, and that meant she felt he was still coachable, even when he is currently 20 moons. Her first stop is the apprentice den.

Pearl (This took me so long sorry)
Kestrelpaw saw Glowstar at the entrance of the apprentice den and turned his head over towards his mentor. "Hello, Glowstar," he said, trying not to sound nervous. He didn't know why he was given the leader as a mentor, it was something that terrified him, the idea of being mentored by the cat that ran the whole Clan. "What's up?" He asked, as if it were a normal conversation.

Glowstar blinks, before nodding. At least he was trying to pretend to be okay. "We're going hunting. You have around 4 moons before you become a warrior, and I want to make sure you're proficient in everything," she meows calmly. The she-cat didn't care if Kestrelpaw was scared of her or not. It didn't matter to her. As long as he could handle himself, her job was done. She just wanted him to survive, and that meant getting rid of his cowardly side. She just didn't know how to.

"Ah, I-I see," Kestrelpaw stammered, trying to make his words seem as smooth as possible. He wanted to become a warrior. He was determined. "Well, I guess we should get going," Kestrelpaw meowed, getting to his paws. "L-let's go- I g-guess."
Kestrelpaw didn't think he would ever be ready for the life of a warrior, no matter how hard he tried.

(Sorry about the late reply. Work increased, so I've needed time to adjust.)
To Glowstar, Kestrelpaw seemed scared of everything, and that wasn't what made a good warrior. Yes, caution was necessary at certain moments, but being too cautious was also detrimental. She looks down at her apprentice, not quite frowning, but not quite smiling either. "Kestrelpaw, what prey do you think you need to work on catching?" she asks. She wanted to find out more about her apprentice's mind. That way, she'd be able to formulate better plans when teaching the poor apprentice. He's the first cat she's come across that's been so nervous all the time. If this kept going, there's no way he'd pass the final test.
