Introduction
Your paws are aching and you feel like you can't travel any longer. The forest seems to never end, with the odd noises and mysterious fog. Why is an odd feeling of dread creeping into your pelt in the most queer way? Someone is here near you, but you don't know who it is. "Hello?" You mew loudly, hoping to find out if anyone was there. "Hello?" You repeat, this time more anxiously. Suddenly, something brushes your shoulder lightly. You turn around quickly, facing a tall and well-muscled orange tabby she-cat who is looking down her nose at you. She smiles sneakily. "Nice to meet you, traveler. I see you seek Hollyclan, the famous clan?" She asks, yawning. You nod, speechless. "Well then.. You've got brains to come here. I'm Flickerstar. If you dare, join Hollyclan, the sly and swift."

Hollyclan is situated in a dense, dark forest with a variety of trees including oak, pine, maple, and other common types. No one exactly knows where the forest begins or ends, so in reality Hollyclan is trapped in their own territory. Moss is easily found near trees or fallen logs, and in certain areas the forest can be very beautiful and calm. When someone looks up from the ground in the forest, the sky can barely be seen. The winters are often brutal, but the summer and spring seasons always make up for it. Many prey animals live in this forest, and they never seem to leave. Hollyclan has no bordering clans because of where they live.

Hollyclan's camp in is a little, snug clearing with a circle of caves around it. The large cave left from the entrance is the warrior den, and the smaller one beside it is the apprentice den. After the apprentice den, there is a huge fallen log which the elders sleep and tell stories in. Beside that fallen log, there is a tree that everyone fondly admires, and it is named Holly's Tree. Next to Holly's tree, there is two more caves that are very small. The leader's den is in one, and the deputy's private den is in the other. In one last cave that is probably third largest, it's the seers den. Tucked away in a corner, there is a small den made only of ferns and other plants as walls. The roof is made up of a kind-looking small tree. That den is the medicine cat's den, and all the herbs are stored in a hole in the ground. Also, many short trees with wide branches are scattered around the edge of camp, which cats like to rest or sun themselves on. They are called Sunning Trees.

Leader: Flickerstar: A tall, well-muscled light ginger tabby she-cat with long legs and strikingly amber eyes. Her physique is sturdy and built well for fighting and hunting. Her tail is long and feathery, with faint orange stripes on it. / 59 moons / Leader / No kin, crush, or mate. / Born in Hollyclan/ BrambleIsBack
Deputy
Fallenwish / Fallenwish is a white and silver tabby tom with amber eyes. He has a muscular built body, and also long legs. Fallenwish has long fur along with a bushy tail. He has multiple scars lacing his pelt, but none that look very deep or severe. / 52 moons / Warrior / None / Born in HollyClan / ☾ ﹣﹣ Aɴɢᴇʟɪᴄ Dʀᴇᴀᴍs
Warriors
Kestrelclaw: A young light brown tom with darker brown splotches scattered across his pelt. His
eyes are a solemn, dark blue. / 14 moons / Warrior/ No kin, crush or mate. / originally a kittypet / BrambleIsBack
Lightfern: A pure white she-cat with very light blonde ticks in her fur. Her tail is a bob tail and she has a condition called heterochromia in which one of her eyes is blue and the other is brown. / 22 moons / Warrior / No kin, crush, or mate. / Born in Hollyclan / BrambleIsBack
Fallendusk / A sleek, usually well-groomed, and short-furred black tom. He is 15 mouselengths long, not including his tail, and, therefore, is rather large for his age of 30 moons. His chest is 15 mouselengths in circumference, and he weighs 15 pounds. Dark grey tabby stripes decorate his pelt, covering the majority of his thin tail but the tail tip remains the original pelt color of black. His paws are also a dark grey, yet his toe tips are also black. His eyes are a brilliant sky blue. He is a quiet cat, preferring to silently observe others instead of being where the actions is. However, he can slowly open up and be sociable to his fellow clanmates, but, to enemies, he is very unfriendly, cold, and hostile. To his leader and clan, he is very loyal and will not hesitate in fighting for his clan’s sake. Although this type of loyalty can make him be very stubborn. He was born into this clan by his mother Leaffoot and fathered by Darksplash. Both were killed by greencough when he was 6 moons old. / 30 Moons / Warrior / No littermates, parents are deceased. No crush, yet./ Born in Hollyclan. / 🍁Autumn🍂
Hareleap / A long-furred white she-cat who weighs 7 pounds. She is 14 mouselengths in length, not including her tail, and her chest is 15 mouselengths in circumference. Therefore, she is rather small for her age of 30 moons. Silvery-grey tabby stripes decorate her pelt. Her chin is the same silvery color. She has brilliant sky blue eyes. Hareleap is considered to be very realistic, and does not really believe in StarClan even though she tries to believe that her parents are up in their ranks, enjoying themselves. Seeking to do the right thing, she is very conscientious. She gets carried away easily, however, when she has her mind set on a certain task she can be quite diligent. Therefore, it would only make sense that she is principled and has a sensitive nose for what is right and what is wrong. She would not hesitate in ratting someone out if they are doing something unjust. In many ways, she also has high ideals. She was born into this clan by her mother Fallentail and fathered by Blackpelt. Both were killed by greencough when she was 6 moons old. / 30 Moons / Warrior / No littermates, parents deceased. No crush, yet. / Born in Hollyclan. / 🍁Autumn
Snowstep / Snowstep is a fluffy, dark cream she-cat with seal point. She has bright green eyes. She is usually bigger than the average she-cat due to her Maine Coon blood. She has some small scars but they are mostly hidden under her fur. The only obvious scars are the three nicks in her left ear. / 25 moons / warrior / No kin and no crush / She was born in HollyClan / zero
Sootclaw / Sootclaw is a dark gray tom with a fluffy pelt that adds to his size. Black patches dapple his shoulders and back, and his eyes are a soft brown color. / 31 moons / Warrior / None yet / Born in Hollyclan / shade
Rowanfoot / A dark red tabby cat. Her eyes are bright yellow. She was born with an underdeveloped hind leg. To this day, it's much skinnier than the others and bends a little unevenly.
Rowanfoot's lame leg has prevented her from enjoying her life thoroughly. Bouts of crippling pain occur randomly, and she has to be careful not to stray too far from camp on her own. / 29 moons / warrior / open / Born in Hollyclan / littleleap
Cinderspeck / A fluffy cream colored she-cat. Cinderspeck could be considered lazy. She does the bare minimum for her clan. She dislikes hunting, and while she's a surprisingly talented fighter, she would rather stay out of battles. She grooms her fur frequently and keeps her nest tidy. Cinderspeck is not very keen on clan life, and is very interested by rogue and loner life. Under the pretense of hunting, she frequently searches the forest for a way out, or an escape from clan life. / 34 moons / warrior / none / Born in Hollyclan / littleleap
Medicine cat(s) and seer(s)
Medicine cat: Runninghare: Grey, long-furred she-cat with brown paws and a brown marking on her forehead. She seven toes on one paw, but nobody notices. / 37 moons / Medicine cat / No kin, crush, or mate. / Born in Hollyclan / BrambleIsBack
Medicine cat apprentice:
Robinpaw / Robinpaw is a relatively small tom with a short, russet pelt. Slightly darker tabby stripes mark his fur along with a white patch that stretches from his muzzle down to the bottom of his chest. His eyes are dark, and he is partially blind out of his left eye. / 11 moons / Medicine Cat Apprentice / None / Born in Hollyclan / shade
Seer:
Seer apprentice:
Queens and kits
Apprentices
Gingerpaw / A light ginger tom with dark caramel colored, classic tabby stripes. Gingerpaw looks pretty average for a American shorthaired. He doesn't have any odd proportions, though he is slightly small for his age but that could be due to hid poor diet while he was a loner. His eyes are a pale blue. / 11 moons / apprentice / All his kin are dead and no crush / He was an outsider but then became lost in a storm. He was knocked out by a branch and woke up with no memories. / zero
Elders
Starclan
Dark Forest
Rogues and loners
Daryl / A dark brown tom with black paws and blue-green eyes though his eyes are narrow and has a scar over it from fights. Daryl is thin, tall, and quite muscular. He has a torn ear that can't hear well. Daryl has long claws and a fluffy tail. He has a berry pink nose and a scar over his muzzle. Daryl is independent, rude, sometimes ignoramus at situations. Daryl is from the southern part, so he kind of has that kind of southern redneck accent. Daryl is fierce and looks tough, but is really just an emotional tom that may become unstable at times. He sometimes looks like he doesn't care of other cats by his attitude, but really does. Daryl was born to Will and Lily that were both rouges. He had an older brother named Merle that died of being struck by a monster. Their father abused the two and neglected them, while their mother did the same. Daryl was once gone for nine days all alone and his father didn't notice his absence at all. He looked up to his older brother , but didn't share the same views of clan cats. The nine days all alone in the woods helped him learn how to survive and become dependent of himself to this day. / Tom / Rouge / Daryl's mother was Lily. Daryl's father was Will and his brother was Merle. He is open to have a crush on. / Daryl wasn't born in HollyClan / Daryl Dixon

Brief summary: The leader ( Or maybe medicine cats ) receive a prophecy and the clan thinks it involves something to do with 'storm'. They realize that there is a nearby rogue group who had lived alongside them forever without being noticed called the Storms. Now, Hollyclan thinks it's about the rogues but it's actually about a natural disaster about to happen.

Fallendusk stretched his forelegs before himself as he slowly opened his eyes, rather lazily for he opened his right before his left. This routine had become custom for the tom since the pace had slowed, and he enjoyed the leisure of it, as well. However, knowing better than to remain in his nest for the day, he forced himself to rise and exited the warriors' den as he continued to stretch and yawn.
Hareleap allowed her tense muscles to relax as she slowly re-entered the camp. Upon finding it difficult to sleep after being rudely woken up once already, she had opted to do a small, quick patrol instead. While the action had been rash, it had managed to cool her temper and level her thoughts. Therefore, with a clearer head, she was able to finally sit down and begin to groom her ruffled pelt.

Lightfern, as always, was outside of the warriors' den and doing something. This time, she was resting on a particularly large Sunning Tree and soaking up the sunshine. She saw Fallendusk emerge from the warriors' den and sat up, ready to get into a conversation like she always anticipated. "Hello Fallendusk! Are you excited for the deputy being chosen today? I sure am... It would be so wonderful if I got chosen! But, that would never happen because I'm sure Flickerstar doesn't like me. It's a pity, isn't it? I think I would make a wonderful deputy!? She exclaimed, pausing to take a breath.
Flickerstar sat in her den, lost in her thoughts. She really needed to chose a deputy by this sun-high or the clan would be in disarray. She went over the possible options. Lightfern, that talkative little thing... Nope. Hareleap, possibly... Maybe Fallendusk or Kestrelclaw? No, Kestrelclaw might be too young. Fallenwish? Perhaps.

Fallendusk was jolted rudely out of his leisurely routine, yet, despite some of his fur standing on end near his hindquarters, he did not allow his surprise or slight irritation to manifest. Stretching his body once more, he turned his attention fully onto the she-cat beside him. "Good morning, Lightfern," he replied politely with a small, respectful nod. "I do not find the idea of a deputy being chosen, but the thought of a new generation beginning from today on, is. Also, I do not think Flickerstar 'hates' you, per say. You two just have very different personality types, that is all."

Lightfern thought about what Fallendusk said for a moment. "Flickerstar definitely has a different personality type than me! I don't think she appreciates me talking so much. Oh well, I can't really help it. I'm not exactly sure about who might become deputy. The thought nags me all the time! Some cat really needs to be chosen. Patrols should be organized by this new deputy... Flickerstar has to choose someone truly responsible!" She remarked, looking at the blue sky above and then back at Fallendusk. She casually licker her paw and drew it over her long whiskers, feeling a bit tired.

While the she-cat did speak a lot, and confuse him at times with her sudden shifts in conversation, Fallendusk found himself enjoying this particular discussion. There were few times he could actually feel at ease, and the light conversation brought that ease along. "Yes, he or she will need to," he replied with a small nod. "I think any of the warriors here will fill the position easily. It probably isn't an easy choice for Flickerstar, but I'm sure any cat she chooses will get the job done."

Flickerstar exited her den quickly without anyone noticing. She slipped quietly to the front of the camp, where she could address everyone. A row of fur on her spine bristled as she wondered how everyone would take her descision. Taking a deep breath, she held her head high and called to Hollyclan. "All cats old enough to brave our forests in Hollyclan, join for an important meeting." She announced loudly, sounding more confident than ever.
Lightfern's bright eyes widened with surprise. "Now already? I wonder... Oh my Starclan, I should get there quickly! It's so exciting, don't you think?" She asked hurriedly, not waiting for an answer and turning her back on Fallendusk to quickly move towards Flickerstar with excitement.
Kestrelclaw headed over to where Lightfern was going.
Runninghare yawned, not really paying attention to what was going on. She peeked outside of the medicine den and watched what was going on carefully but not exactly listening too well. She managed to let another yawn slip out of her mouth and began grooming herself without a care in the world.

@brambleisback
Fallendusk shot to his paws once Lightfern had left his side. His curiosity had gotten the better of him, and it was visible on his expression. With his tail held a tad bit higher than usual, the black-furred tom headed toward his leader before, a few heartbeats later, settling down a few mouselengths behind the rest of the cats that were gathered.
Hareleap had been grooming one of her hindlegs when the meeting was called. With a leg lifted awkwardly in the air, she paused before slowly rising to her paws and heading toward the crowd. Gracefully and carefully, the she-cat settled down in the middle of the cats gathered.

"Attention cats of Hollyclan! I say these words before Starclan, that the spirits of our warrior ancestors may hear and approve of my choice. The new deputy of Hollyclan is Fallenwish!" Flickerstar announced proudly, beckoning for the warrior to come up.
( By the way, not Fallendusk, but Fallenwish. )

Fallendusk felt a smile make its way onto his lips at the proclamation, for he felt that the she-cat would be an excellent deputy. While he had not spoken to her many times, the times he had seen her and her attitude towards her clanmates and clan in general had been positive. He felt he could relax with her as the deputy.
There as a bit of disappointment lingering the far recesses of Hareleap's mind, yet she shook her head to clear that feeling. Deciding it would be best to look friendly and approachable, she let her tense body relax. She remained uncertain if the choice was good or bad, and would remain vigilant. After all, respect was earned for work done, not promise unkempt.

Lightfern looked up excitedly at Flickerstar. "Really? Oh wow, of course not me! Ha ha... Fallenwish will be such a good deputy! Why, probably better than me. Is it before moonhigh? We must follow tradition, after all. I'm sure everyone is satisfied with this new deputy. So exciting!" She rambled on and on, finally pausing for a moment to catch her breath and stay still for a while.
Kestrelclaw's pelt felt hot underneath as it was all being announced, but he didn't know why and ignored it plainly. He looked at Fallenwish and felt a twinge of envy as the scarred tom stepped up to accept his position. Why not me as deputy instead of that annoying tom? I would be so much better. I was the best as an apprentice, and , well, I would be so responsible! His thoughts distracted him from everything that was going on.

❈ -- Fallenwish blinked in surprise at Flickerstar. He was speechless for a few heartbeats, before responding. "I-It's an honor, Flickerstar. I'll do my best to serve this clan," he vowed. I hope I can keep that promise. He was slightly doubtful, but didn't say anymore, just padded up and sat there, still in surprise. I don't know how I'll do this. But somehow, I will.

Flickerstar smiled warmly at the tom. "I made a good choice choosing you, I'm sure of that." She mewed, nudging him to stand up . "Behold, the new deputy of Hollyclan!" She announced, realizing that Kestrelclaw's eyes were blazing with anger and giving him a glare. "Now, this clan meeting is dismissed." Flickerstar added calmly, facing Fallenwish. "You better get comtable in the new cave you'll be moving into. It's all to yourself!" She purred with amusement, padding away. "By the way, I hope you'll organize patrols tomorrow!!"

❈ -- Fallenwish dipped his head respectfully. "Thank you Flickerstar," he said. Oh StarClan, I can't do this! Why am I deputy? Why not some other cat? He padded towards his new den, feeling slightly overwhelmed and isolated. I'm doing this for my clan... I must be strong. StarClan will guide me. Sighing, he laid down, resting his chin on his paws. I might as well get ready for whatever comes next.

Runninghare watched Fallenwish and rolled her eyes, padding to him. "It shouldn't be that hard. It'll be a lot easier once you actually know what's going on." She mewed, spinning around again without waiting for a response and slipping back inside the medicine cat's den.

Runninghare sat in her den, getting back to the sorting of her herbs. She smiled at the thought of Fallenwish getting used to being deputy and just wondered if he would ever get the hang of it. Tossing a pile of dried marigold away, she thought of how much a waste it was to throw away dried and shriveled herbs. If only there was a better use for them....

❈ -- Fallenwish wanted to get up and ask some cat older than him for advice. Perhaps they knew a thing or two about taking control. Although... there weren't many that were really older than him. She chose me for a reason. Suppose I was stronger and wiser than most other cats. Most. Not all. He still didn't get why he had to take on such a great responsibility. Life was so much easier before this...
