... There was once, long ago before the world was as we know it now, a Spirit with a glorious light who spent her days running away from those who pursued her. The Lost were drawn to those who exuded such light and—once they became monsters beyond all hope of saving—they hunted it endlessly. To try and devour the pure and cleanse themselves of their madness.
... This Spirit hid on the mountain, stuck on the very peak by the Lost monsters circling below waiting for her to try and escape. She paced on the mountain for thirty days and tried to find her way to freedom. If she ran down the peak, she would be devoured. If she tried to jump off, she may get a head start, but, in the end, she would perish. There was no way for her to leave this mountain alive. With a wail of hopeless despair, the Spirit hung her head.
... It was then her eyes caught sight of the specks of light below the mountain. They streaked through the dark with monstrosities chasing them relentlessly, but none of them gave up. When one fell behind, others would turn back to distract the Lost monster while the weaker light ran ahead. They were working together...helping each other!
... How could these other spirits, so much smaller and weaker than her, face the monsters when she could not? How could they can fall to despair as she had?
... Their perseverance and hope gave her strength and she rose to her paws with a new determination to free herself. As she re-evaluated her situation, she came to a conclusion. If she could not move down, she would have to go up! With a mighty spring, she leapt upward and tried to snag her claws on the clouds. She fell to the ground with a mighty thud that shook the mountain. With a huff, she rose and leapt again. And again and again and again, each time making it just a little higher. Until, eventually, the Spirit grabbed onto a cloud and pulled herself into the sky. Her light illuminated the chaotic darkness below as she looked down upon the world. The corrupted Lost souls scattered and ran until the light could no longer reach them and the other spirits looked up to her in wonder.
... "My friends, we have spent our whole lives running in fear of those who lurked in the dark," she murmured in the awed silence. "I...I almost gave up and became one of them, but you all gave me hope. It was your strength and compassion for others that made me try, that helped me reach the sky. To repay you, I will weave you a safe place to live in peace out of the darkness we feared so. I will guide you to it when you cannot continue to run from the Lost anymore. I will watch after your families and guard them as best I can until they too join you. From now on, you can rely on my strength and my brilliance. You will never be alone again. I will always be with you." ......................................................................................................... ☽ ✩ ☾............ ★ R u l e s_
- Obey the forum rules, potential ghost rules, and my rules. Always listen to me. I have the right to change and add rules as I see fit. There will be no prophecies or major plot changers without consulting me. I will involve you in one if I think you earned it—they will be discussed amongst the clan as the opportunity comes. Since ideas are welcome, however, it's fine to suggest anything plausible—they just need to be approved beforehand. I don't mind smaller plots being done on your own, but nothing clan-changing without my consent.
- No God-Modding! No Power-Playing! No Spotlighting! No Flooding. No Giant Quotes.
- No advertising unless given permission. No spam (fetching someone back to another roleplay or to leave a friendly comment are excused). No kit-__ing or raiding clans are welcome.
- Please try to use proper grammar and a third person perspective when rping. This clan is semi-literate, so I would like to see at least a few sentences per post as well.
- Please be realistic; kits can't fight foxes, no character is without flaws, there are no time-traveling dinosaurs, and cats do not have wings.
- Please be active. Post a few times a week and let us know beforehand if you won't be here for a while. Important ranks like medicine cats and deputies need to be more active than a regular member. If a high-position's roleplayer is not present for something important, then the mods or admin of AstralClan have the right to rp as that character strictly to move things along.
- The first part of the password is the first letter of your username. (Second part found elsewhere.)
- Characters will age every two weeks when I update the news. Please keep track of this. When the rp skips sometimes, I will try to keep up with the aging as closley as it seems right to be. Only start by making six cats per person. Being able to make more characters will be rewarded if you do well enough at keeping up amazingly with the ones you already have. Also, an apprentice must be trained at least three times, at least once by their mentor, and complete the Trials before getting their ceremony. No exceptions.

...(Don’t be intimidated! I will answer any questions you have and will be sure to explain everything when needed.)
...-- Here in AstralClan, each leader rules during a time period called an Era. Each Era is named depending on how the leader wants to rule and will come with its own ideals. Clan members should try to live by these ideals. The current Era, its ideals, and how long it has been that Era will be listed below on this post. .........Example: The Era of Seeking; Ideals are honesty, curiosity, and logic.
...-- Instead of apprentice evaluations, AstralClan has three distinctly different tests to be passed called the Trials. There is the Body Trial, the Mind Trial, and the Heart Trial. They can be taken at any time towards the end of an apprenticeship and all three must be passed to the mentor's satisfaction. If any of the trials are failed, the ceremony will be delayed and apprentice will have to start over. .........The Body Trial: This is a basic test of hunting, tracking, and fighting skills necessary for the life of an AstralClan warrior. Any warrior other than the apprentices mentor can judge this trial and they can conduct it however they see fit. .........The Mind Trial: The apprentice must escape the labyrinth listed in the territory within two days time. This trial tests your reasoning and strategic skills and shows how the apprentice would act when faced with extreme duress. If the apprentice can not make it out in time or they give up, their mentor will guide them back to safety. .........The Heart Trial: This trial is a subtle one and is actually tested the entire length of the apprenticeship. It is how you work within the clan and how well you uphold the warrior code and the ideals of the current Era.
...-- There are two special secondary ranks some warriors and apprentices can take, a Lorekeeper or a Mystic. Lorekeepers are a few chosen cats who are taught the art of storytelling and are responsible for remembering all the past and recent history of the clan, along with their legends and mythology. A Mystic specializes in telling fortunes, whether it be by suggesting love matches, commenting on someone's personality, analyzing the dreams they are told, or by predicting an aspect of the future. They often take part at big gatherings or ceremonies but their skills can be called upon at any time. Each Lorekeeper and Mystic chooses their own apprentice when they feel they are ready to teach one but the admin has to approve them.
...-- StarClan and the Dark Forest do not exist here. Cats who are generally good are said to pass on to a world beyond this one that hides in the night sky. These cats are called the Risen. Medicine cats and leaders can sometimes talk to these cats in their dreams when the barrier between the two worlds is thinnest. Cats who have done terrible things in their lifetime are barred from entering this world and are trapped on the mortal plane. These cats are called the Lost. They sometimes try to terrorize the living and can cause nightmares or feelings of being watched in the darkness.
...-- Every so often, a cat will die a truly noble or heroic death or suffer one that came unfairly or before its time. In these special cases, this spirit may be reincarnated into the next kitten born into AstralClan and given a second chance to live. It is unlikely the kitten will remember anything specific about its previous life but they may retain something unspecific. Like, a cat who may have died from a snakebite might be reincarnated with a fear of snakes. This is extremely rare and the admin has to approve any requests for a character to be reincarnated. ................................................................................ ☽ ✩ ☾............ ★ E r a_ ...CURRENT ERA: Era of Growth, led by Nightweaver ..... Ideals: Hard work, exploration, and camaraderie..... Timeline: Ongoing 2 years and 11 months/ 35 moons...PREVIOUS ERA: Era of Peace, led by Ashweaver ..... Ideals: Forgiveness, inner strength, and new beginnings..... Timeline: Lasted 3 years/ 36 moons............ ★ S e a s o n , W e a t h e r_ ...SEASON: The Middle of Leaf-Bare....WEATHER: Snow seems to be coming. Be alert.......................................................................................................... ☽ ✩ ☾............ ★ N e w s_ ...- 5/14/17 RP Summary: Honeythroat has run away from the clan after failing to assist a patrol when they were attacked by raccoons, resulting in Raventail losing his sight. Duckpaw, Cloudpaw, Bearpaw, Drizzlepaw, Geistpaw,and Pearpaw have earned their warrior names; Duckthorn, Cloudchaser, Bearcharge, Drizzledance, Geistwisp, and Pearseed. Wildcreek and Raventail are growing close, as are Nightweaver and Mossfreckle. Said leader and deputy couple are even considering kits! Asterwing went to Owlcrest about her love life and the older tom sent her in the way of Oakstep. Frostpaw decided to step down from being the medicine cat apprentice and has joined the warrior apprentices. Harpyscreech has decided the pressure of being deputy si too much and has stepped down, making way for Mousepath to take over. The rogues that have been scented for a few moons have finally made their move. They ambushed a patrol and killed Pearseed and Coldfire. The leader left Bearcharge a message to send her message to the clan and their leader; that she has declared war on AstralClan.
- 5/14/17: Gonna try to keep up on our bi-weekly updates now that Im home! The old news has been stored in a doc, if anyone wants to look at it. The next update will be 5/28/17. Everyone has been aged up 1 moon.

astralclan -- woven from stars✦ ................................................................. ☽ ✩ ☾............ ★ T e r r i t o r y_ ... AstralClan resides on the largest mountain in what seems to be a never-ending mountain range somewhere in the American Northeast. Everything is covered in greenery and prey is bountiful in the warm months, but there are predators as well and many dangers. The weather may change suddenly and harshly. The cold seasons bring death and disease, yet AstralClan has survived many years in their lush, rocky home and take pride in their resilience.
...The Echo Tunnel –- This was once the temporary camp for strange creature the clan calls Two-Legs, which are tall and hairless creatures that walk on their back paws. They haven't been seen around the mountain in many eras and some cats don't believe they actually existed. These Two-Legs carved large tunnels into the mountain side that lead further than any other cavern. It is a dangerous place with sudden drops, falling rocks, and an abundance of rats, but it does hold one good thing—an unusual skylight tunnel that seems to go on forever called the Silvertrail. When moonlight shines into the tunnel leading down, the embedded stones in the side of the tunnel seem to glow. If you follow the markings left by leaders long before, you can find it. Sleeping there allows one to speak with the Risen. Unfortunately, for the same reason, many of the Lost haunt the other misleading tunnels and often try to lure weak-willed cats astray. This is a an abandoned mine shaft* ...The Black Path –- A cliff side trail full of strange black stones. The Clan call the shining ones coal, and the dull, sharp ones shale. It's easy for cats to be injured on the sharp, slippery rocks and warriors have fallen clear off the mountain in times past. It has little to no cover from birds of prey and is a common nesting ground for snakes. However, many rare herbs not found in the rest of the territory grow in the rich soil under the stones. ...The Falls -- The Falls are a large, clear series of waterfalls that cascade down the mountain into a large pool full of fish. The pool tapers off to form a quick moving river that is difficult to cross. The banks are full of soft, sandy dirt, vibrant moss and vegetation, and smooth stones. Most battle training and practice takes place here to minimize injury. This is also the best fishing hole in the territory. Bears tend to lurk around here in the warmer seasons. ...The Shrouded Forest -- The Shrouded Forest takes up most of the mountain. It is mostly full of pines with a mix of deciduous trees. The trunks grow so tall and close together that the land below is always in shadow. A few stray beams of light can breach the foliage, but the forest is predominantly dark. This is the main hunting spot on the mountain and it also hides the most predators. ...The Prism Pool -- There is rumored to be a tiny, warm pool of water hidden somewhere on the mountains that was blessed by the spirit of the first ever medicine cat. It is said to be nearly perfectly round and incredibly hard to find. The bottom is full of colorful shining stones and the water reflects the stars on a clear night. Legends say that is has healing properties and that the spirits will save a mortally wound cat who enters the pool.
...Camp -- Because AstralClan believe that the Risen look after them when the night sky is present, they tend to sleep in the open air under the stars. The clan lives on a series of natural steps carved into the mountain with the cliff edges blocked by boulders and large logs to keep kits away. Dens are formed between boulders and overhangs, covered in dense woven brambles and vines to keep out the cold. The medicine cat's den and the nursery are the only dens the clan will sleep inside of year round. There is a small, trickling water source outside the medicine cat's den. The highest step is where the leader sleeps and holds clan meetings. It overlooks the Stone Labyrinth. ...Stone Labyrinth -- Far below the camp, there is a dark reminder of bloody Eras past. A large, treacherous labyrinth full of pitfalls and dangers is visible from the highest step in camp. Its walls are made by tall, heavy stones and mud-and-branch enforced walls that are difficult to scale. In days long ago, the Clan would watch prisoners, traitors, and trespassers get tossed into the labyrinth with little hope of making it out alive. In recent history, it has been used to test apprentices during the Mind Trials. With careful supervision from along the walls, of course. ................................................................................ ☽ ✩ ☾............ ★ P r e y_ ...- Mice, Voles ( Common )

astralclan -- woven from stars✦ ................................................................. ☽ ✩ ☾............ ★ A l l e g i a n c e s_
...Leader: Nightweaver | Tom | 63 Moons -- Nightweaver is a sleek and muscular silvery and black tabby tom with swirling patterns across his pelt. His shoulders are very broad and strong. He has a long muzzle that ends in a black nose and uneven whiskers. His eyes are bright green and long, talon-like claws. Nightweaver can be a bit...paranoid and pessimist, panicking when things go wrong. He can be a little high strung but he is a very hard worker who wants to lead the clan well. He has a very nurturing soul and takes pride in the success of others. (xfogpathx)
...Deputies: Mossfreckle | She-Cat | 53 Moons -- Mossfreckle is a medium-haired, orange-ginger tabby and white she-cat with a chubby but strong build. Her fur is especially fluffy at her chest, throat, belly, and white-tipped plumy tail and curls at her legs. Her eyes are mossy-green color with yellow rings around the irises. Her muzzle is flatter than usual with ginger speckles, a red nose, and similar paw pads. Mossfreckle makes for an excellent warrior and a good deputy when you see how invested she is in her clan and the loyalty she has towards the code. She can be a little too trusting even to those who shouldn't deserve it. Her clever wits and eye for strategy make her a great planner and organizes very fitting patrols, but she hardly joins any of the patrols she creates–be it border or hunting. The white-and-orange cat has a bit of a lazy streak but makes up for it in every other aspect. Some still adore her while others resent how somebody in a high position can get away with being so unproductive. Yet she is kind and considerate and does enjoy mentoring and helps others teach their apprentices often and does surprisingly well in physical fights. (Darkηesque) Mousepath | Tom | 37 moons Mousepath fits his name surprisingly well. He's quite small in stature, being the smallest out of his two other littermates, and it was surprising that he was the one who ended up being the strongest and healthiest. He has thick, soft pale grey fur that makes him look bigger than he actually is, if he was shaved (Risen forbid), he'd look more like a six moon old apprentice in his size. He has a dark grey mask over his eyes, and dark grey ears, paws, and tailtip. His eyes are a pale green color that is flecked with gold. Few scars scatter the toms body, the only one that is prominent is his left ear is shredded at the top, the result of a battle training session gone horribly wrong. Mousepath is a typically quiet tom, one who thinks its better to use reason than force, one who thinks before he acts. He's a decent fighter, although he tries everything else before he resorts to using his claws. (sweetclover1)
...Medicine Cats: Batrain | She-Cat | 44 Moons -- Batrain is the dark color of midnight blue that looks black from afar. Her legs are very long, and her ears are also bigger than a normal cat's (almost bat-like). Her eyes are a kind, aqua-blue, and her pelt is silky and long-haired, but not thick. This medicine cat has wanted to be one since she was a kit, but did not have knack for the profession. Even now she struggles more than a normal medicine cat should. She often forgets remedies or what herb is which, but she still tries her hardest because it is her passion. Batrain is indeed a passionate she-cat who is normally calm and kind. She loves rain and storms. Though she loves her job, she hates that she can never love someone else or kits of her own. She greatly respects the rules, however, and would never dream of going against them. She is very full of life and would do anything for her duty to be fulfilled. She is usually very cheerful and optimistic, even in the darkest times, but can become quite serious. She is a peaceful soul that is a kind mother spirit to her clan. She and her mother Bluelily were accepted into the clan after running away from her cruel rogue father. (Eris Alva)
...Medicine Cat Apprentice: None
...Warriors: Crookedstorm | She-cat | 73 Moons Crookedstorm is a tall, lithely built but muscular she cat. Her pelt is of a medium length and very dark grey with a few lighter hairs dotting her muzzle with age, and her eyes are a light, penetrating silver that seem to command even the unruliest kit's attention and respect. The bottom third of her tail is missing, and her right ear is severely shredded. A grisly scar runs from the corner of her mouth through/above her right eye (miraculously unwounded and fully functional), drawing it up in a permanent half smirk. Her claws and canine teeth are quite long, protruding slightly from the tips of her paws and from beneath her upper lip, only just visible. Fiercely loyal, she is known to be a formidable opponent and commands a natural sort of authority. Crookedstorm is quite serious and does not tolerate tomfoolery well, but has a soft-spot for kits and the capacity to be quite gentle and kind. (requiem) Harpyscreech| She-Cat | 59 Moons -- Harpyscreech is a long-legged jet-black she-cat with amber eyes with the black from her stomach to her paws fade down to a gray color. In addition she has slightly larger ears and long whiskers. Feisty, headstrong, determined, those are a few words to describe this she-cat. She is a strong-willed cat who never backs down from a challenge. She is a bit impatient and easily irritated however, and can become very snappy in an instant. Doesn't help she has quite the sharp tongue. Despite her more fiery attitude, she is extremely committed and loyal. (ƑαƖƖєη Sтαяѕ) Cardinalflight | She-cat | 49 Moons Cardinalflight has an uncommon and interesting pelt that she is very fond of. It is a russet color, with darker russet, almost black, color on the upper side of her body including her back, forehead, and topside of her tail, almost in a tabby-like pattern. Her underside, including her belly, chin, and underside of her tail, however, is snow white. As stated, she takes very good care of her pelt and never let's it look even slightly rustled. She has dark green eyes. Cardinalflight is a cat who takes great pride in her looks, yet gets offended when her clanmates deem her useless. She's a very skilled hunter, but when it comes to fighting, she's almost no use. It won't take much for her to surrender, as she has a very low pain tolerance. Cardinalflight is more of a mother-like she-cat than anything else. She's pretty friendly, and great to come to for advice. (Snake) Owlcrest | Tom | 47 Moons -- Mystic -- Owlcrest is a thick-furred, brown Bengal tom with darker spotted and striped markings on his big-boned, broad figure. His nose, ear tips, and the underside of his tail are more sandy-colored than the rest of his coat. His tail tip, the fur under his feet, and a splotch on the back of his head are black. He has large ears on his round, flattened face with a drippy black-spotted nose, and has bright yellow-green eyes. It's safe to assume that Owlcrest is a clever fellow, given his name and the gifts he possesses as a Mystic. He's mostly silent and reserved, but will wholeheartedly speak when giving his fortunes. Some say that his gaze is unsettling and always watching others. Perhaps he is so quiet because he's busy simply observing everyone very closely in the clan. That would definitely make his predictions more accurate, yet it probably isn't comforting to know that Owlcrest is aware of everyone's secrets. Even describing him as all-knowing would still be an understatement. (Darkηesque) Chilledgaze | Tom | 46 Moons Chilledgaze is a very quiet tom, barely speaking unless spoken to. Some may think it's because he's stuck up who thinks he's too good for anyone, as he can give off that type of vibe, but he's actually a very sweet cat once you actually talk to him. He may be a little awkward when first meeting others, but he eventually warms up to them and will be a little more confident. And although he tends to think lowly of himself, he's a pretty good fighter and an okay hunter. But he gets frightened easily, and can be a bit of a klutz. His fur is a dark silver with black tabby markings, and he gets his suffix -gaze from his chilling blue eyes. He has a larger build, and is quite muscular. Just from his build, he can be intimidating to those who don't know him. (Snake) Adderfang | Tom | 45 Moons -- Adderfang is a lithe, long-limbed black and white tom. He sports a white chest, muzzle, belly, and legs as well as a striking pair of green eyes. As an apprentice, the small tom often felt like he was no match for larger cats in battle. However, as his training continued, he learned to use his size to his advantage by becoming increasingly agile in order to avoid an enemy's blows. Adderfang is not much of a fighter, though, and would much rather prefer to be chasing mice through the undergrowth or leaping into the trees after a sparrow. He is always eager to volunteer for hunting patrols. His Clanmates know him to be kind and approachable, if a bit soft-spoken. (Whitefang) Leopardbite | She-cat | 43 Moons Leopardbite's name is just like her personality; Not the most pleasant. She is a sharp-tongued she-cat who isn't afraid to use her teeth and claws, although her scathing words usually get the job done. She's known as a cat who is "full of hate," as some of her clan mates say. And although she has very little friends, no cat can argue she is an excellent fighter, arguable one of the best in the clan. In battle, she's very determined, and never gives up unless she is forced to. She is very independent, and doesn't like when others offer their help. It's not often she's seen being polite to her clan mates, but some days it's easier to get on her good side than others. Leopardbite does have a softer side, although she refuses to admit it. When she cares for someone, she cares deeply and will never let anything bad happen to them. But it will take a lot to break her outershell and reach her softer, kinder side. Leopardbite is also very ambitious, and will do almost anything to come into some position of power, as she truly believes she is destined to lead. And, despite her rough exterior, this she-cat looks very feminine. Her coat is a shiny golden with leopard-like spots covering her whole body. Her eyes are a pretty golden yellow. (Snake) Acornfall | Tom | 43 Moons This peculiar tom, with his lack of a tail, is a marbled dark brown with white paws and neck, bright orange eyes, and a slender build accompanied by a narrow face. Having lost his tail in an accident when he explored all too close to abandoned twoleg machines and messing with them. He's adventurous and hearty, loving to be around his clan and be with them, as well as help to train apprentices with none of his own. He can be a bit weird at times, not knowing when to hold his tongue always, but his intentions are pure and noble. Acornfall takes learning seriously in all matters and is a bit of a jack of all trades. A bit of this and a bit of that goes for him. He also secretly loves to swim, and is actually terribly afraid of heights. (Catinthebag) Galerush | Tom | 43 Moons -- Galerush is a lithe, pitch black tom with a narrow muzzle and short ears. His upper fangs stick out a little and the toes on his left back paw are white. His legs and tail are longer than most. He has sharp amber eyes. He is known for his swiftness and precision. Galerush is a bold tom, unafraid to take action or say what needs to be said, but it can make him reckless. He often acts without thinking. He is charismatic and others seem drawn to him but he has a mean jealousy streak that reveals itself at the worst of times. (xfogathx) Copperslash | Tom | 41 Moons -- Copperslash is a chocolate brown tom with black, <i>almost</i> classic-tabby stripes whose extra-long tail highly resembles a snake. His haunting gaze is pale green. The white of his eyes are effected by a genetic inflammatory disease that causes them to be pink—almost red. Much more like a snake than his serpentine-named sister, Copper has a silver tongue and a heart filled with dangerous ambition. He silently plays the loyal, strong warrior, but secretly he wishes to rule the clan with iron claws. He is patient and calculated and, if it takes that much precision, will take the rest of his life gaining power slowly if that was what it took to sneakily gain the throne. (Eris Alva) Snakefang | She-Cat | 41 Moons -- This little she-cat is small, fluffy, and plump gray with slight dark gray tabby stripes. Her emerald green eyes hold a fire that is quashed and contained by her protective and controlling sibling, Copperslash. When she was an apprentice, an encounter with a (thankfully non-venomous) snake gave her two dark-pink fang scars on her back-left thigh. She has a noticeable limp on that side because of it. Her name then changed from Silverpaw to Snakepaw and the warrior name, of course, became -fang later. Snakefang was once very independent, head-strong, and loud-mouthed. After the snake attack, however, she became disclosed, mousey, and over-careful of everything she does. She almost never leaves Copperslash’s side, and looks to him before saying something, as if asking for approval. He has his tail wrapped around her neck—so to speak—and his hold on her doesn’t appear to be ending any time soon. (Eris Alva) Feathersneeze | She-Cat | 40 Moons -- Feathersneeze is a small, fluffy brown tabby she-cat with green eyes. She has white front paws as well as white 'socks' on her back legs. This she-cat is certainly the little bundle of joy, seeming to constantly have a huge supply of energy. She is certainly a bubbly one, seeming to have a kit-like personality still; especially considering she loves to cuddle, but at least her twin brother Leaftumble is fine with it. She is rather vibrant with optimism, always seeing the bright side of things and the good in everyone. Not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed, but is a cat who will always be there to brighten your day. Now -sneeze is a rather odd suffix, but there is a valid reason for it. Feathersneeze has a rather sensitive nose and she tends to sneeze a lot. Very strong aromas can make her lightheaded and dizzy, and on very rare occasions she may actually pass out. Silly as the name may sound, it makes sense. (ƑαƖƖєη Sтαяѕ) Leaftumble | Tom | 40 Moons -- Leaftumble is a small, fluffy brown tabby tom with green eyes. He has white front paws as well as white 'socks' on his back legs. This tom is a rather shy fellow with a low self-esteem. Not very confident around others, or even himself, he's one to rarely engage in socialization. He doesn't like to be the center of attention, and feels rather embarrassed and awkward rather quickly when in a group. The only one he's really comfortable hanging around with his twin sister Feathersneeze. She's the only cat who seems to help him a lot to deal with his anxiety. If you were able to break from his timid barrier, you can see Leaftumble is a rather sweet and compassionate cat as well as a good listener. Also, he has keen hearing and smelling which makers him a surprisingly skilled hunter and tracker. (ƑαƖƖєη Sтαяѕ) Ferretleap | Tom | 38 Moons Ferretleap is a well-liked cat in his clan. He has a very bubbly and interesting personality. His fur, to start, is very fascinating. His base coat is pure white, however not much of his base coat is seen because it is covered with a darker cream. His eyes go very well with his coat, being a bright and sparkly blue. This tom is very playful, but knows when to be serious, although he always tries to see the good in any situation. He can annoy his clan mates easily with his all around good moods, but once in a while he will have his bad days, and on these days, he can be just as angry and sharp-tongued as any other cat. Ferretleap does tend to be bossy, and has a big ego. He always claims to be the best at everything, most of the time not jokingly. He is a very bold cat, and not afraid of what others think or say about him. This can be a good trait, as well as an awful flaw. He's also bad at reading others' emotions, so when someones annoyed with him, he won't know unless it is directly said to him. However, he's delightful cat to be around, for the most part, and everyone needs someone to help them see the good in life, and Ferretleap is that cat. (Snake) Raventail | Tom | 36 Moons -- Lorekeeper -- Raventail is an energetic, long-legged jet black tom with a long, skinny tail. His fur is thick and fluffy, almost kit-like to the toms constant displeasure. It always seems to be in an unruly mess- his fur sticking out in every which way, and is impossible to make it look neat. He's tried. On many occasions. He has wide gold eyes, and looks a little young for his age. This tom is a people-pleaser, always trying to make others happy, to make their lives easier. A busy body, he won't stop until his paws fall off and he's asleep while walking. He tries to be everyones friend, even if they don't want to be his, and, unfortunately the tom is a little blind to the fact that everyone won't want to be his friend. He just won't take the hint. He's a bit stubborn, and persistent, and easily distracted and rather naive, believing that there is always good in the world, and has a hard time grappling with the fact that sometimes theres evil in this world, too. He is a little bit too invested in what others think of him, so when he does realize that someone doesn't like him, it actually drives him insane, and has tried in the past to change himself so others would like him more. He's still trying to get over this flaw, but struggles with it more often than not. Blind.(Sweetclover) Webtangle | Tom | 35 Moons -- Webtangle is a languid and average-built, good-postured, and short-haired tom with a bit of a muscle-tone. He has a white coat but a large area of it is covered in light, ash-brown fur. There are small splotches of a darker brown dotting his legs, a few of his toes, ear tips, and tail tip. There is a streak of black on the bridge of his nose and part of his muzzle, but it helps with making his blue eyes stand out. His voice is very matter-of-fact with a ringing tone spoken with an intelligent vocabulary. Webtangle is responsible and sympathetic with a habit of being a little cynical and easily jealous. He is critical of himself although he's only a sincere and sensitive tom with a knack for being affectionate and appropriately romantic. He is an overly-helpful individual, who seeks out to use his logical mind and articulate way with words to assist others. (Darkηesque) Wolfgaze | She-Cat | 34 Moons -- Wolfgaze is a muscular dark gray she-cat with bright amber eyes. Her fur is thick and forms a ruff around her neck as well as adding a considerable amount of weight to her tail. She has faint tabby markings running down her sides, as well as a nick in her right ear. Wolfgaze is hard-headed, always wanting to believe she is right. She has earned a reputation for being stubborn and got into a bit of trouble during her apprenticeship. Despite this, she remains loyal to her Clan, as it is her home. She strives to become a better warrior each day, even if it means having a few disagreements with her Clanmates. (Whitefang) Wildcreek | She-Cat | 29 Moons -- Wildcreek is a large she-cat with long, white fur with dark brown points. Her ears are wide-set and she has a short muzzle with a pink nose. She has a short, feathery tail and stout legs with big paws. Her eyes are round and owl-like, light blue in color. She has a notch in her left ear. Wildcreek is a sarcastic cat who wants to her the acceptance and respect of her peers and always tries to impress others. However, she is easily flustered and sticks to the warrior code blindly to try and make others forget her rogue blood. Despite her sometimes bristly exterior, she does show she care in her own way by trying to make others the best they can be. Her inner kindness is seen more through little, unseen actions than grand gestures.(xfogathx) Pineconebristle | Tom | 28 Moons -- Pineconebristle is a dark brown, speckled tabby tom with dark green eyes. His fur tends to spike out at odd angles a lot, most likely where he got his name. Trying to describe this tom, it's like trying to describe something you can't really put into words. Well, there is one word that describes this tom well: odd. You would really just have to have a conversation with this cat to really understand. The way Pineconebristle talks, it's like as if here's there but he isn't. Definitely a daydreamer at times, but he holds enough sense and respect not to wander off in the middle of a conversation. Also there could be moments where he doesn't make a lot of sense. Those who have talked with him a lot would probably understand a bit better; although the way he sometimes speaks in metaphors and riddles can be confusing even to them. Quite the interesting fellow. (ƑαƖƖєη Sтαяѕ) Lightningclaw | Tom | 27 Moons Lightningclaw is a long-legged and wiry-haired gray and black tom with bright golden eyes that sometimes seem to flash like lightning, hence his name as he was the first to have opened his eyes out of the litter. He's maintained a kittenish personality and a nose for adventure and curiosity. He's an over-the-top eccentric kind of cat who enjoys being and staying active. More of a talker than a fighter, and not all the lights on upstairs, he frequently makes a fool of himself much to the amusement and enjoyment of the others. even when he knows he's being made fun of however, he doesn't take it to heart and tends to be rather good natured. He loves to go on any sort of odd or extra missions that require exploring in or outside of the territory and is actually very good for such tasks, having an eye for tracking and recognizing other animal tracks. (Catinthebag) Asterwing | She-Cat | 25 Moons -- Asterwing is a slender and willowy, long-furred silver-tabby she-cat. She has very light guard-hairs even where her swirled-tabby markings are a near-black color. Her long, feathery tail fans out with every flick. Below the curls of her forehead fur, she has flower-like, bright-blue eyes. Asterwing half-heartedly tries to be a fantastic, rule-abiding warrior, yet at the same time can't stand the attention of the role. Even when she wasn't trying very hard, she managed to grow into a peak example of great fighting and hunting skills wrapped up into one. However, there is a lot of weight on her shoulders to continue the lifestyle that she doesn't want anymore. She'd much rather flow under the radar, but she is innocent and somewhat clueless to any other actions. Pair that with wanting to be known for something else and it makes her gullible and vulnerable enough to do what anyone wants of her. (Darknesque) Cloudchaser | Tom | 21 Moons -- Cloudpaw is a long-haired and very fluffy, stout tom-cat with mostly white fur and some pale orange-and-blonde tabby markings at his face, tail, and paws. He has a firm, steady figure with larger paws and ears. His coat is very plumy all over and it is a thick struggle to keep unmatted–not having the same constant need to groom as his mother does. He has blue-green eyes with bright yellow irises. As a very airy individual, he's got a bit of a dual personality. There's the goofy genius that he is in general, and then the bit of snark he gains whenever he's around his rotten brother, Duckpaw. He just wants to be deemed 'cool' by his closest kin and plays an arse in his presence, when in reality he's just fun and full of life. As good as he is at being playful and telling jokes, he's actually pretty smart–though his intelligence can get away from his unfocused mindset sometimes. His crude persona is mostly a front, but even when he's just teasing he isn't the nicest cat anyway. Gaining a creative aspect from his mother, he wants to be innovative and inventive. (Darkηesque) Duckthorn | Tom | 21 Moons -- Duckpaw is a short-to-medium-furred orange-ginger tabby tom with a developing muscular form, but a small and slightly stocky build. He has many tufts of brown and darker splotches in his coat and white fur at his chest, jowls, and striping across his legs. He has a bit long of a thin muzzle with warm amber eyes. His tail lacks the plume that the rest of his family possesses. Nobody wants to believe that such a determined and ambitious individual has bad intentions, so a lot of Duckpaw's antics are blamed on young rebellion because otherwise he's so obedient in his training and to his mentor; he just doesn't listen so much to anyone else. Duckpaw bleeds sarcasm and a constantly unamused tone that's mostly shown to be making fun of others and criticizing their mistakes. He's picky in general, very scowly in appearance, and just overall not very pleasant to be around. At least he prefers to be alone anyway–only trusting Cloudpaw and Copperslash to deal with his bad mouth. He is undeniably skilled in chase and combat. (Darkηesque) Bearcharge | Tom | 21 Moons -- Heavy-set, barrel-chested tom with thick, dark-brown fur. He has heavy lidded blue eyes. Bearpaw is loud and passionate, sometimes a bit slow-minded. That is not to say he is dumb, but his common sense can be lacking in certain situations and he has a glow of innocence about him. Though ‘innocent’ might not be the correct word, as Bearpaw can have a very dirty mind. His heavy build makes his attacks slow and heavy as well, so speed is never his strong suit. He gets winded easily as well. Despite this, he can take many hits and pain is actually not much of an issue at all to him; he takes any and all damage like a trooper with little bat of an eye. Overall, he is simply a gentle giant who loves to laugh and cheer others up. (Eris Alva) Blazewing | Female | 21 moons -- Blazewing is a very outgoing she-cat with ginger fur and pale blue eyes. She has faint stripes and a set of white paws to match. While she can be a bit overbearing at times, Blazewing has an unquestionable loyalty to her clan. She holds herself to very high standards and will do anything to make sure those standards are kept. Her confidence and pride can be a problem if she does not keep them in check however, giving her a false sense of invincibility. She loves adventure and gets rather antsy when confined to a small space. One thing that she doesn't tell others however, is her crippling fear of water. This can lead to her going to extreme lengths to get out of the rain or away from any body of water. (Corax) Oakstep | Male | 21 moons -- Oakstep was named after his distinct brown pelt and dark chin, paws and ears. He has darker stripes running down his spine and bright green eyes. Oakstep is rather shy when it comes to other cats. He is far more introverted and is defiantly not a fighter, he is awkward around others and has issues conveying his feelings. He becomes embarrassed when he starts to trip over his words. When push comes to shove however, he is very kind and holds his morals very highly. If faced with a difficult situation, he will do what is right according to his moral code. This can present conflict with the warrior code. He still holds loyalty to his clan in high regard, but places a few things above it. He can fight if pushed enough, but would prefer more diplomatic solutions. (Corax) Drizzledance | Tom | 20 Moons -- Drizzlepaw is a pale gray tom with a round face and a dark gray nose. He has long, droopy whiskers and dark green eyes. He has faint dark gray spots and stripes on his legs and spine, up his tail, and on his face. His chest and front paws are white. Drizzlepaw is kind of spacey and tends to wander off a lot and get into trouble. What he lacks in focus, he makes up by having a good heart. He is compassionate and open-minded, always trying to make friends. Others can sometimes find him clingy and odd. He becomes awkward around she-cats he thinks are pretty.(xfogpathx) Cedarbranch | She-cat | 20 Moons Cedarbranch is a she-cat who is lithe and agile, yet still has a considerable amount of muscle to her. She has a powerful, yet regal, air about her, and it almost seems like she's a sweet she-cat when you first meet her. But cross her, and she isn't afraid to use her teeth and claws. She has a fiery ambition that everyone recognizes, and she refuses to let others tell her she will be anything but great. Not many cats get along with her other than her brother, but this doesn't faze her. She is an excellent fighter, but lacks in most other skills. Cedarbranch knows how to get what she wants for the most part, using words like silver and what little charm she can muster. But this is all an act, and by now, most cats can call her bluffs. She's pretty serious compared to her brother, and is rarely seen joking around. Some say she's just mature for her age, others say she is just grumpy all the time. It's not easy to make friends with this she-cat, as she will often cut conversations short if the other cat doesn't before her due to her lack of manners and friendliness. The first color you see when looking at this young she-cat is a medium-dark rusty reddish-brown color, which isn't the most pleasing to the eye. On top of that, is an even darker plethora of stripes, covering her entire body, in a tabby pattern. Her eyes are a dark amber, adding to her rather intimidating appearance. (Snake) Antwhisker | Tom | 20 Moons It's not hard to pity Antwhisker, the cat who wants to be the greatest warrior the clan has seen, but is held back just by his mere size. He was the runt of his litter, and shorter and smaller than most of his fellow apprentices despite being older than many of them. Antwhisker refuses to let this hold him back, however. He trains extra hard to keep his skills sharp and be the best he can be. Antwhisker makes up for any lack of skills he has with his intelligence; He's one that warriors, although being older than him, recognize his smart ideas when it comes to battle tactics, or even advice. He can be a little short-tempered and sharp tongued if you get on his bad side. He can also be very curious and daring, which in turn leads to him causing a lot of trouble, and getting his den mates in trouble as well. As he ages, this trait of him is slowly starting to fade, but he will always have a thirst for adventure that will never be quenched. Being a pretty outgoing cat, he's quite the opposite of his sister. His fur is short, black, and soft, while his eyes are a sharp, firm green. (Snake) Geistwisp | She-Cat | 19 Moons -- Geist is not unlike her lost twin Northkit in size and color, and is large and mostly white. Her pelt is long and silky. She is very fluffy around the chest and belly. There is a patch of brownish black on and around her left ear, on her right flank, and a band of brownish-black on her shoulders almost like a shawl. Her eyes are bright yellow and almost always look like they are surprised or way too widely opened. Geistpaw is a cat of paranoia. She worries about almost everything. She is not completely nervous though, and has actually gotten better with age, becoming rather quiet and judging from afar. She is kind but easily defensive when spoken to. (Eris Alva)
...Apprentices:
Hollowpaw | Tom | 18 Moons -- Hollowpaw is a very well constructed dark brown tabby tom with mackerel stripes, long claws, a tan underbelly and broad shoulders. His eyes are a luminescent green that shimmer when he gets excited or upset. For his age, Hollowpaw is very mature. He knows exactly what he wants and how he wants to get there. He has a deep compassion for his sister and his clanmates, fueling his loyalty. He has his ideals and morals, but is very patient and observant with others. He understands that he is the only thing in life he can control and that everything happens for a reason. Hollowpaw has a deathly fear of being forgotten and while it takes him a while to get angry, once he is, things can escalate quickly. He is very calculating and waits for the perfect opportunity, which may never arrive. He wants to be remembered, but in a good way and though he thinks he knows what he's doing, he really doesn't. (Corax) Frostpaw | She-Cat | 18 Moons -- Frostpaw is a very pretty, long furred silver tabby she-cat. She has dark blue eyes that shine like sapphires and ashen gray paws along with a white under belly. There is a scar on the back of her neck from an incident she would rather not talk about. Frostpaw is a very quick thinking and is good at thinking on her feet. She is very kind-hearted and puts her morals above anything else. She lives to help other cats and will selflessly put everyone else before herself. Frostpaw is always keenly aware that life will go on with out her, and so she works non-stop, not allowing any time for herself and instead finding new ways to treat wounds and use herbs. This can lead her to work herself to exhaustion or it impedes her judgement. She wants to be a wonderful medicine cat and help in anyway she can, but is sometimes unsure of how to do that. (Corax) Shimmerpaw | She-Cat | 8 moons A tortoiseshell with amber eyes that shimmer when she's excited. She's known for climbing everything and their mom. She's lovable, outgoing, and passionate about everything she does. She can be brash, with a fiery temper, and impatient. Her paws are all white, along with her tail-tip. She's confident in herself, and willing to do anything to help the Clan. She's easily overexcited. (Shimmerfire) Soulpaw | She-Cat | 7 moons Soulpaw is a small, but independent kit with a sassy attitude . She always tries to get into trouble and start fights with other cats and loves to adventure and explore. She has slate grey fur with black paws and tail tip with bright blue eyes. She often tries to sneak away and explore. She doesn't remember much of her family, but tries to make friends despite her obnoxious and angry attitude. Her goal is to be like all the other strong warriors in her clan and be the best warrior. As she get older, she matures into a kind of shy but loving cat. (BlackWolf5471)
...Queens: Willowcurl | She-Cat | 34 Moons -- Willowcurl is a lithe, long-bodied she-cat with silky long fur. Her tall, thin legs end in small paws. Her pelt is snow white with faint silver tabby markings on her tail and a large silver splotch over her chest and just over her shoulders. She has long whiskers that curl at the ends and short, wide set ears with tufts of fur curling at the base. Her eyes are alarmingly heterochromatic with the right being entirely amber and the left being blue with amber bleeding into it. Willowcurl has high standards for herself and others and while it might make her seem pushy, she only wants the best for everyone. She takes pride in her friends and makes sure to tell them so, excessively. She loves to tease and joke around and isn't above getting above getting her paws dirty despite her prissy exterior. (xfogpathx)
...Kits: Nettlekit | She-Cat | 4 Moons -- For a she-cat, she has a more sturdy and muscular build; although, this is usually hidden with her long fur. Instead, it gives her a more taller appearance overall. Nettlekit is a mostly white cat, with patches of brown and splotches of cream dappling her body. She has dark green eyes that portray a steady wave of calmness. Speaking of her personality, she is a surprisingly mellow and gentle cat for her large appearance. She is a listener than a talker, a quiet cat who only really speaks when she feels the need to. At the beginning, it was questioned whether or not she was a mute because she wouldn't talk at all. It was even questioned of she was deaf, but that was quickly declined seeing that she understood perfectly well and was able to give replies with a nod of a head and such. Any worries were put aside when she reassured them that she could indeed speak. Being the observational type, she acquired much knowledge of surroundings and portrays an aura of wisdom. (ƑαƖƖєη Sтαяѕ) Falconkit | Tom | 4 Moons -- Falconkit is a brawny tom with a large-set, barrel-chested body. His thick coat doesn't help him look any smaller and is a mixture of cream and pale-brown with darker brown markings at his forehead, tail-tip, and all four of his legs. There is a white splash at his chest and a white streak down his nose. His head his wide with a muzzle that slants downwards and ears that tilt forwards at the tip. His eyes are round with one amber eye and one blue eye. Falconkit has a habit of being very vigorously competitive and has a tendency to become reckless when he's bored. He is always eager to seek challenges over others to prove his might. He has a habit of speaking in an overly theatrical fashion. (Darknesque) Mockingkit | She-Cat | 4 Moons -- Mockingkit is the runt of the litter- a tiny she cat that is barely at the shoulder of her littermates. She has long, fluffy fur that is constantly in a mess, even when she attempts to groom it. She has tufts of white fur in between her paw pads and tufts of grey fur on her ears. Her coat is primarily white, with a pale grey striped tail and grey ears, along with a patch of grey over her blue eye. She has mismatched eyes, one is blue and one is green. Her blue eye is slightly clouded, she can barely see out of it and it gets worse as she ages. She's a constant ball of fluff and energy, not letting her stature get in the way of being a warrior. She is competitive with her siblings and never seems to tire, is always ready to tussle in the dirt, not fearing anything but birds. (Sweetclover1) Graykit | Tom | 4 Moons -- Graykit is an almost entirely gray tabby tom with mostly white legs and belly. He has a particularly thick strip from his nose to his all gray tail. Long, silky fur covers his long and lithe body and slightly broad shoulders. His charming face holds large blueish-green eyes and a crooked smile topped with long whiskers that curl on the ends. Much more shy and uncertain than his siblings, Graykit constantly feels like he needs to improve to keep up with them. He can sometimes be envious of his siblings or cats with any above average talent. He desperately wants to be remembered by AstralClan when he eventually dies. Despite these less savory traits, he is much more gentle and curious than many give him credit for and will become a great warrior with more confidence. (xfogpathx)
...Elders: Elmbranch | She-Cat | 104 Moons -- Elmbranch is a large mackerel tabby she-cat with yellow green. She has gone blind due to old age and a potentially some family history dealing with blindness. You would think as a typical elder she would be very snappy and impatient; you're wrong actually. In fact, she's quite the opposite. Patient and humble, she's the cat who you'd want to hang out with if your having a bad day. With her old age comes wisdom, and Elmbranch's warm personality is certainly comforting. Definitely can get emotional on when it comes to very touching things. She considers herself, "A silly old she-cat who gets emotional too much." (ƑαƖƖєη Sтαяѕ)
...The Outsiders: Dollie | She-Cat | 67 Moons -- Dollie is a large she-cat with long, white fur with dark brown points. Her ears are wide-set and she has a short muzzle with a pink nose. She has a short, feathery tail and stout legs with big paws. Her eyes are round and owl-like, light blue in color. Dollie is a sly she-cat who values self-preservation over honor. She would rather run away than lose and tends to lie a lot, especially to save her own skin. She is friendly but fears trusting others too much. She claims to have had Wildcreek with a clan tom but wont say who. (xfogpathx) Honeythroat | She-Cat | 53 Moons -- Honeythroat is a long-haired, pale orange-and-blonde tabby she-cat with a lithe, flexible figure. Her fur is scruffy so it takes a long time grooming to make it as sleek and shiny as she likes it. There is a ring of white around her throat and up the mouth and bridge of her muzzle. Her nose and paw-pads are pink and she has yellow, caramel-and-honey eyes. Like her sister, she's not very up for hunting, and unlike her sister she's not very up for fighting. However, she is careful to take care of her physique, keeping her lean, healthy, and agile form ready for...being pretty. Honeythroat's best trait is probably taking care of others—making her a perfect lover and Queen—but she fails at most anything else. She purposefully projects her voice annoyingly high and sing-song like. What she does enjoy is being creative, like drawing in dirt and carving on trees, because she thinks one of the best things a cat can be is well-cultured and talented in some area. Probably can't hold down a mate because she's such a restless sleeper and has a habit of gossiping and talking too much. (Darkηesque) Sicilian | Tom | 49 Moons -- Sicilian is an agile, black and white tom with golden colored eyes. Oh this tom, certainly having a way with words. A smooth talker he is, knowing the true power of it. He doesn't abuse this however, unless you count his consistent flirting with she-cats. Well in his defense, he doesn't call it flirting. Really he just holds a high respect for she-cat and merely just wants to compliment them. Unfortunately for him, it really just comes out as flirty. Another thing though, is that Sicilian can be considered rather lazy. It's not as much as that's he's a slacker who doesn't want to do things. More or less, he's a free spirit whom doesn't prefer to follow a certain set of rules and guidelines in life. "Go with the flow" would definitely be his motto. (ƑαƖƖєη Sтαяѕ) Ellie | She-cat | 26 Moons To describe Ellie in one word would be impossible. To start, her coat mainly consists of a medium shade of silver, almost with a blue tint, and it's quite dull. She has dark tabby markings along with white splotches on her muzzle and chest. There is also a hint of white just above her eyes. Her fur is a tad bit longer than normal, which tends to irritate her more often than not, and often looks ragged and unkempt due to her laziness in taking care of it. Her eyes are almost a mix of orange and amber. Ellie is an extremely independent cat, as her father, Blitz, died when she was considerably young. Ellie is a sneaky, sly cat who knows how to manipulate a cat. She knows how to fake her emotions, and well, fake just about anything. Her father taught her how to do this when she was young, and so she has become very good at what she does. However, this is the only way she survives. Her survival skills are lacking, which means she depends on others around her to do the dirty work for her. Ellie does her best to block out all her emotions, as her fathers death made a huge impact on her character. (Snake) Searing | Tom | ? Moons -- will be added when he is introduced

astralclan -- woven from stars✦ ................................................................. ☽ ✩ ☾............
...The Risen: Coldfire | She-Cat | 35 Moons -- Coldfire is a rather small she cat with pale grey with pale grey fur. She has the siamese cat markings- the darker "points" that color her fur with dark grey, having dark grey ears, paws, and a "mask" on her face. She has faint ghost markings on her tail that used to be prominent, but now are quickly fading the older she gets. She has pale green eyes, and a scar on her shoulder from a training accident that went horribly wrong. Coldfire is a rather quiet, reserved she cat who prefers to be a follower instead of a leader. She was made into a warrior rather late due to her having trouble assimilating into the clan. Its not as if others where mean to her, or that she was mean to others. It's simply that she is incredibly shy, and at times could be seen sitting alone, away from the hoard of apprentices. Once you get to know her, you will quickly find that she has a pretty wry sense of humor, and is quite talkative when she wants to be. She is loyal to her friends, despite her usually being left in the dust by them, but she doesn't mind. The she cat actually prefers to be on her own at times, despite the loneliness and her constant want of belonging. She is better now, has a few select friends that she truly trusts, helping her feel like she's a part of the clan, along with her littermate, as well. (Cause of Death: Killed by rouges) (SweetClover1) Pearseed | She-Cat | 19 Moons -- Pearpaw is a milky cream colored she-cat with a round face and all brown ears. She has honey gold eyes and a ruddy colored nose. She has faint brown spots and stripes on her legs and spine, up her tail, and on her face. Pearpaw is a studious and proud she-cat, which can make her seem like a know-it-all. Especially because she tends to be overbearing. She needs to feel needed. She likes to teach others what she knows but she panics under pressure despite her bravado. (Cause of Death: Killed by rogues) (xfogathx) Fernrustle | Tom | Died at 50 Moons -- Fernrustle was a long-haired pale brown and cream tom with darker brown tabby stripes. He had a long, billowy tail that often got caught on things and a thick pelt that made him overheat often in the warmer seasons. He had dark green eyes and a white chin. Fernrustle was a jolly tom who often liked to fool around and tease his friends. However, he was an innovative cat who used his wits to improve life for those around him. He was also known to never stay with the same mate for more than a few moons and may have fathered a few more litters than expected. He was once very charming. He was the predecessor of Harpyscreech. (Cause of Death: Carried off by a Hawk) Ashweaver | She-Cat | Died at 96 Moons -- Ashweaver was a dark gray tabby and white she-cat with a shiny, sleek pelt. Her nose was gray and she had very long whiskers that curled at the ends. Her eyes were an icy blue and she had a long, delicate muzzle. She was known to be very stealthy. Ashweaver was a very noble soul who had a very clear sense of justice that wasn't being upheld by her aunt, Iceweaver. Her quick thinking, precision, and skill at being unseen aided her in the rebellion against Iceweaver and later into her seasons as leader. Nothing escaped this suspicious she-cat. Her high strung nature seemed to pass on to Nightweaver. Led the Era of Peace, predecessor of Nightweaver and successor of Iceweaver. (Cause of Death: Rock slide) Oakweaver | Tom | Died at 98 Moons -- Oakweaver was a long-bodied, solid dark brown tom with almost black points on his legs, face, ears, and tail. He had dark amber eyes and a stubby muzzle with uneven whiskers. His right ear was shredded to a nub and his right eye was hazy. Oakweaver was a very open-minded and laid back tom who always put his faith in others. This of course led to his death. He was a curious and quizzical cat. He liked to discover and make others question the world. Led the Era of Seeking, predecessor of Redweaver and successor of unknown. (Cause of Death: Poisoned by Redweaver)
...The Lost: Iceweaver | She-Cat | Died at 77 Moons -- Iceweaver was an all white she-cat with long, silky fur and perfectly shaped ears that she was justly proud about. Her round, icy blue gaze may same innocent but they can pierce through a cat. Her long, delicate whiskers curl at the ends. She had a solid, sturdy build under all that fluff. While Iceweaver may have looked like a beautiful she-cat, she was cruel and cold. Her ruthless nature and cunning tactics made her a powerful warrior and leader. She was a brute in battle and so skilled, she never received any visible scars. Led the Era of Will, predecessor of Ashweaver and successor of Redweaver. (Cause of Death: Killed by Ashweaver) Redweaver | Tom | Died at 120 Moons -- Redweaver was a lithe, agile tom with a bright ginger pelt. He had a single, thick streak of dark ginger running down his spine to his tail. His legs and belly were white and he had a gnarled scar over both of his shoulders. His golden gaze was warm but oddly empty. Redweaver had an air of trustworthiness and confidence about him unlike that of other cats. He was charismatic and intelligent and ambitious. He knew how to manipulate others and seem like a good cat, until he got what he wanted. Led the Era of Blood, predecessor of Iceweaver and successor of Oakweaver. (Cause of Death: Old Age)
...Sloane's Rogues: Sloane| She-Cat | Leader Sloane is a lithe, long-legged she-cat with a narrow muzzle and tall ears. Her pelt is a warm dark gray with faint stripes and is very thin and sleek. Her eyes are golden with what seems to be dark reddish-black bleeding into them. Her son is Frizz but she doesn't seem to care about him much. (xfogpath) Quartz | Tom Quartz is a huge, solid tom with small ears and icy, blue eyes. His has massive paws and talon-like claws. His pelt is very thin and mostly white with a few pale gray patches. He has a thing for Sloane and will do anything to try and impress her. (xfogpathx) Carver | Tom Carver is a long-bodied bright ginger tabby tom with a stubby tail. His ears are shredded from scars and his pelt is covered in thick scar tissue. His dark amber eyes seem completely empty. (xfogpathx) Kichi | She-Cat Kichi is a large she-cat with muscular legs. Her pelt is a pretty blue-gray and cream brindle but she doesnt groom it often so it is covered in dirt and blood. She has a scar over her muzzle and pale blue eyes. (xfogpathx) Barker | Tom Barker is a broad, strong tom with a flat, mean looking face. His pelt is long and straggly and entirely black. He has small, hard green eyes and and underbite that make his bottom teeth stick out. (xfogpath)x Frizz | Tom Frizz is a small, brown tabby tom with long, frizzy fur. His eyes are the same golden color as his mother. He seems to be one of the weaker cats in the group and gets roughed up a lot by the others, so he is often covered in minor wounds. (xfogpathx) Wix| She-cat Wix is a small, long-haired, fluffy orange, brown, ginger, and white tortoiseshell she-cat with honey-brown flecks on her pelt that appear 'gold'. She has dainty white paws with one black-toe distinctly seen on her front-left paw. Her tail towers over her figure with it's long strands that fan out with each flick. Her wild-amber eyes with orange flecks are rather large and round. (Darknesque) Jay | Tom Jay is a spindly and gangly, long-bodied tom with a gaunt, narrow head and a flat muzzle. His coat is dark-gray with black spotted-tabby markings. There are areas of blended pale-ginger (especially on his ears) in his pelt and his face is a lighter-gray than the rest of his fur. His eyes are a sullen silver, tinted with a somewhat eerie blue hue. (Darknesque) Grim | Tom Grim is a brooding, slender dark gray tom with dark brownish green eyes.( Eris Alva)

The mid-day sun made the cliff side camp warm and hazy, the stone beneath their paws calling them to laze and slumber while the days were still hot. Nightweaver couldn't help but feel drawn to the lure of lazing about as well. The tabby draped himself over the Cliff Rock so he could watch the whole clan mill about and glance out towards the territory at the same time to try and spot the outgoing patrols. It was rare that he had the time to just relax but this green-leaf was calmer than most and, for that, he was most grateful.
A commotion near the medicine cat den made his ears swivel towards the sound but the spike of panic he felt melted into amusement when he heard shrill yelling and the sound of water. Apprentices, no doubt.
--
"Drizzlepaw! I am going to tear your fur off for that!" the spotted apprentice sputtered as her head emerged from the drinking pool. Water dripped off her whiskers as her golden glare locked onto her sheepishly grinning brother. He looked between Pearpaw and the cats around him before streaking off and away from the potential threat to his pelt. "You cant run from me!" Pearpaw yowled as she sloshed out of the water. Droplets flew from her fur as she ran, soaking any cat in around the area without mercy.
--
Galerush dodged out of the way as the two apprentices barreled past him, kicking up dust and spraying water onto his dark pelt as they went. "Hey! Watch it!" he yelled after them as he shook out his pelt with an irritated huff. It was bad enough that the air was so hot and heavy, he didn't need to be wet and breathing in dust as well. The young warrior made his way to his intended destination and crouched in the shadows of the bramble and grass barrier that closed off the camp from the rest of the cliffs. He glanced around with a confused frown. It was rare that he was the first one to arrive for a hunting patrol. Galerush sat stiffly, alone, as he waited for the rest to arrive and awkwardly licked his chest fur.
--
Wildcreek stood on a stone, waiting patiently preached above the slow moving water on the edge of the Falls. She could see a fish swimming closer and closer with every bated breath and it took all her will power not to leap in and try to snag it between her teeth. She knew it wouldn't work but the heat was roasting her alive under her thick fur. As soon as she caught some prey she was going to go for a swim. Maybe that would help relieve her discomfort although she would never act so worn down around any of her clan mates. She had been with the clan for seasons now but she still didn't feel comfortable showing any sign of weakness around them. She needed to show that she was just as good as they were, better even, despite her diluted bloodline. Her pride would accept nothing less.

The heavy form of Bearpaw was splayed out not far from Pearpaw and Drizzlepaw. His belly was heaving in giggles as he watched the two. He'd join in on the fun, but he'd just tire out easily and his thick fur would trap way too much water, making him heavier. The humidity didn't help his thick pelt, which looked and felt like it was wet regardless.
"Don't be such a stick in the mud, Galerush." Batrain grumbled past some herbs as she peered to see what was going on. It was nice to take a break from the counting and once again attempting to memorize what her herbs actually were. The system that seemed to work the most was putting the herbs in alphabetical order from left to right. We'll see how long that lasts...

"Funny to hear that from a medicine cat." Galerush scoffed with an exaggerated scowl, his voice free of venom, as he crouched in the shadows. His amber eyes glowed from the relative darkness like small suns against his black pelt. But in his opinion it was true. They weren't even allowed to leave the camp alone. As a warrior, that kind of restriction was horrifying. He loved the thrill of the hunt and the rush of wind in his whiskers. Nothing could replace the pride of chasing something off of AstralClan territory and keeping the others safe. Medicine cats stayed in camp unless they had to visit the Silvertrail or gather herbs. They had to deal with the sick. Galerush would find it dreadfully boring. But Batrain seemed to deal with it well enough. "They shouldn't be running around like that anyway."

Bags began to set in around exhausted green eyes puffy with lack of sleep. The zombie-like form of Snakefang was, of course, lingering near her brother Copperslash. The tom was sitting tall, his tail heavily on the smaller cat's shoulders. To most, he probably looked very protective. To the she-cat, however, he was a constricting python. She would never tell him that, of course. He... he loved her. She was his sister. Her tired gaze blinked up at him before trying to follow his line of sight to whom he was staring at... but she couldn't quite tell.

... ↪ "They're acting like kits," Duckpaw meowed dryly a few paw lengths away from his brother as they nestled in the sun on the cliff above the medicine dens that over-looked the pool where Drizzlepaw and Pearpaw ran. While the disgusted tom rolled his eyes, the fluffier sibling wouldn't mind being involved in the water and the chase if his coat weren't so fluffy. However he stayed in place to impress his brother who looked to be observing something else now.
It was watching the apprentices get under Galerush's paws that really had Duckpaw rolling his eyes, but eventually the warrior made it to the bottom of the hill without anymore obstacles and looked expectant. "Oh, right. Aunt Mossfreckle set me on a hunting patrol with Galerush and Copperslash... See ya, Cloudpaw," he grumbled quietly and cast his eyes across camp where he saw Copperslash emerging into view from a couple overhangs down.
It wasn't like Duckpaw wasn't fully aware of the ongoing feud that his mentor had with Galerush. The aforementioned was just so short with Copperslash and he didn't respect him. Listening to the rivals argue during this hunt was going to drive him crazy, and for a moment Duckpaw thought about hiding away in the Stone Labyrinth before just huffing and climbing down the side of the mountain for joining the patrol. The deputy–his own kin–really must not have been thinking when she set this one up.
With Duckpaw gone, Cloudpaw fumbled down an overhang to join Bearpaw by the waters. "He surprisingly wasn't in a bad mood this morning," he started meowing, referring to Duckpaw, "but after spending the day with Galerush and Copperslash... I'm not going to hear the end of it from him tonight." Cloudpaw clacked the air against the roof of his mouth with his tongue prior to sighing and settled next to the belly-up apprentice that was giggling to himself.

"That wasn't a bad mood?" Bearpaw mumbled to Cloudpaw as he crossed over to him. He flipped over to lay on his stomach now and shrugged. He was glad his own mentor wasn't in a war with another cat. However, Galerush seemed to him to be just what Batrain called him: a stick in the mud. Duckpaw was more suited to be his apprentice than Copperslash's. But that was just his opinion. "Well, you wanna spar or somethin' today?"

((Also, just so everyone is aware, on Wednesday I will be making a poll to help decide on the second deputy. Any cat who has an apprentice and meets the age requirement will be eligible but only one character a person, so if you have more than one I will pm you and ask who you want in the poll.))
