 Sand Mistleheart (on medicine cat patrol with Stormmask) Even though the leaf-bare hasn't been nearly as bad as the last one, Mistleheart is relieved when Newleaf arrived and the prey were running back in the forest again. No one died, thank StarClan thought Mistleheart, as she padded through YewClan's camp. One sunrise, Mistleheart was asked to go on a medicine cat patrol with Stormmask to visit the Clan's graveyard to collect rosemary. She was dreading this patrol, as she didn't want to go where her deceased Clanmates are buried; Icepath was called to StarClan too soon, and she missed the warmth of the former medicine cat. She was also told of the former cats of YewClan, Bramblespots, Mudspeckle, Beesong, and Frostfleck who died before Mistleheart joined YewClan as a kit. When Stormmask asked Mistleheart to join her, she followed the dark gray tabby she-cat, paws trembling and spine shivering at the thought of more cats in YewClan tragicallly dying. " Why are we getting more rosemary? Mewed Mistleheart uneasely. " It's not like someone in YewClan will die soon!" The scenery around the two cats were showing the opposite of death. New shoots were pushing through the soil, trees were growing back their leaves, and a mother deer was walking nearby Mistleheart and Stormmask, with a fawn following her. It seems to suggest that more life is approaching YewClan. " Is YewClan getting new kits? It's long overdue! I don't want more cats to die!" Thought the young warrior. Mistleheart gulped when they arrived at the graveyard. The white and gray warrior weaved around Bramblespots and Beesong's graves, following the dark gray medicine cat. Mistleheart froze at Icepath's grave, and broke into tears. " ICEPATH!!!" Cried Mistleheart, tears streaming down her face " I’M SO SORRY YOU DIED! I REALLY MISS YOU!!! I WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!!!" Around Icepath's grave, green plants were growing. Mistleheart bent to sniff them. They smelt delicious! Mistleheart stopped crying and turned to the young medicine cat. " Stormmask, is this rosemary? It smells good! I don't believe something that smell good would hide the scent of death!"
OOC: I'm sorry I didn't post anything yesterday evening like I said I would do!  I was working on writing for my main character in the ClanGen mod, LifeGen. I haven't finished it yet, since it is so sad, so I finished the evening playing Stardew Valley 1.6, because I didn't want to write anymore. Please forgive me! |

Heavy »
plans to visit stormmask
has a meal with spottedfur - Sand
& brightleaf - Dew
Leaf-bare had finally loosened its grip on the land. Mornings were still chilly, and evenings turned crisp, but the days were steadily growing longer and warmer. Not only that, but prey was beginning to show itself more and more frequently. Hunting patrols were finally returning with jawfuls of mice, birds, and even fish, and while the prey wasn’t greenleaf plump, it was certainly fatter than it had been in the harsher moons of leaf-bare.
Not only was prey abundant once more, but Brightleaf had finally recovered from her yellowcough. When Heavy had heard the news she had been ecstatic, nuzzling into her daughter and covering her face with licks until she was sure Brightleaf was annoyed at her mother. Stormmask had gone out to collect herbs right after discharging Brightleaf from the medicine cat’s den, and Heavy had yet to thank the gray tabby for all her hardwork and dedication. Without Stormmask then Brightleaf would have surely died, and Heavy wasn’t sure what she would do if her daughter, or any of her kits, lost their lives. She knew that the warrior life was harsh and unforgiving, but that didn’t dull any of the pain she felt at the thought of losing any of her kits. But she didn’t have to worry about that thought becoming a reality thanks to Stormmask; Heavy would have to thank the medicine cat later. Perhaps she’d bring Stormmask a mouse or shrew later and have a nice chat with her for a bit. A small smile pulled at the calico’s lips at the thought - spending time with Stormmask always made Heavy feel better.
At the current moment, though, she was gathering herself into a comfortable sitting position as she took a seat beside both Brightleaf and Spottedfur. While none of them were currently on any patrols, the three had decided to share a meal. With prey showing up once more, warriors no longer felt guilty for eating a meal. Heavy purred as she watched Spottedfur and Brightleaf get settled in as well, and once the two other warriors had eased themselves into a comfortable position, Heavy glanced between the two and asked, ”What prey would the two of you like? I’m starving, so anything sounds good to me!”

wants to spend more time with stemriver & sneaks into his nest - @ --
It had been some time since Heavy had enjoyed the company of Stemriver; sure, they had been on a few patrols here and there together throughout the last moon, but spending some actual one-on-one quality time had not been in the picture.
Night was falling swiftly as Heavy eased her way into the warriors’ den. Blue eyes scanned the darkening nests, searching for the familiar gray and white pelt of Stemriver. The calico had half a mind to ask Stemriver if he wanted to take a stroll out into the territory under the light of the moon, but for as much as that sounded like an exciting adventure, the night was chilly despite the season and Heavy could feel tiredness dragging at her paws. She wasn’t as young as she once was, and getting adequate rest was a must in her growing age. Heavy wasn’t an elder by any means, but the calico was well aware of just how quickly the moons were passing by.
Spotting Stemriver, Heavy eased her way over to his nest, leaning downward and gently nuzzle the half asleep tomcat. He roused awake for a brief moment, bleary eyes blinking up at Heavy as she smiled warmly down at him. ”Mind if I sleep here as well?” She asked quietly, heart swelling with happiness as Stemriver shifted around to give Heavy some room inside his nest. With a loud purr the calico slipped into the nest beside him, easing into a comfortable slumber beside the tomcat.

Slatefoot »
needs time alone & saw scarletdrift - @ --
It wasn’t every day that Slatefoot didn’t feel like socializing with her Clanmates. Usually she was interactive and eager to speak with any cat that she saw, but today she just…felt tired. Not physically tired, but mentally tired. The dark-furred warrior had a lot to be excited about with the coming of new-leaf and the fact that her sister was finally free of yellowcough, but Slatefoot still just wasn’t in the mood to celebrate or do much of anything. She had done her patrols for the morning, but now that she was back at camp, the warrior wanted to sit alone and be by herself or perhaps even head back outside and just enjoy the sounds of nature by herself.
A sigh slipped from the young warrior’s jaws. Lowering herself down into a laying position, the molly flicked her tail off to her side, eyes half-lidding themselves as she silently observed camp in her own little bubble. A flash of familiar orange and white grabbed her attention briefly, ears perking forward. Scarletdrift was busing himself with something, rushing out of camp before Slatefoot could even get a chance to call out a greeting to him - not that she wanted to give away her solitude, but not saying anything felt wrong to her. And she really liked Scarletdrift. He was a fine warrior and a good friend, but she didn’t have to worry about not saying hello to him. The tomcat seemed to be in a hurry and Slatefoot just wanted time to herself. Perhaps later she’d be feeling like her normal self again and would spend some time with Scarletdrift once he returned, but for now, she was simply content with being alone.
Slatefoot »
border patrol with dappleswipe- lazzylake stemriver & heavy
Head and tail held high, Slatefoot marched through the thickening undergrowth of YewClan territory. She remained a few pawsteps ahead of the rest of her Clanmates despite not being the leader of the patrol, but Slatefoot was too eager for this border patrol that she didn’t care whether or not she was the leader of this patrol. And, she had very much noticed from the start of this patrol, Dappleswipe was here, and Slatefoot wanted to do nothing more than to impress the deputy. If she were to become leader one day she needed to stay on the good side of the cats who were in power right now. With Bubblingstar as her former mentor and still a good friend, Slatefoot didn’t think her friendship with him would ever be strained. Dappleswipe, on the other paw… They had a good relationship, but it could be stronger, and that’s what Slatefoot wanted to accomplish. If she could impress the deputy then surely the tortoiseshell would want to spend more and more time with Slatefoot.
A familiar scent washed over Slatefoot’s mouth, causing her to stop dead in her tracks. Ears standing straight, Slatefoot’s jaws parted and her whiskers quivered frantically as she drew in the smells that were coming from nearby.
Rabbit!
Before she even had time to think Slatefoot was off on the trail. She recognized she was on a border patrol, but after so many moons of little to no prey, the rosette-splashed warrior wasn’t about to pass up the chance to snag a plump piece of prey for the Clan. Dappleswipe would surely be impressed with Slatefoot’s skills if she managed to catch the creature.
Dashing through the verdant undergrowth, Slatefoot neared the creek bed that made up the border of YewClan and PlumClan, and just beyond that was the rabbit, nibbling on tufts of grass just inside PlumClan territory. Slatefoot took a quick glance around to make sure the coast was clear before bunching her muscles and pushing off the ground, claws unsheathing in mid air. The obvious movement in the air caught the rabbit’s attention, and with a startled thump, the rabbit dashed off into the undergrowth while Slatefoot fell short and landed in the middle of the creek bed, fortunately unscathed and on all four paws.
Frustration brought a curse slipping off her tongue, tail lashing in annoyance. Why was it that every time she tried to catch prey she always failed? There had only been a few times in which she had been successful with hunting, and even more times where she had missed the prey altogether. She didn’t want to admit that she was a poor hunter, but every time something like this happened it was getting harder and harder to deny what was right in front of her.
”Slatefoot!” Stemriver’s voice broke the young molly out of her thoughts.
Turning, the gray and white warrior watched as the nearby ferns rustled and Stemriver and Heavy poked their heads out. ”Are you okay? We saw you run off toward the border,” Heavy mewed with a frantic gaze toward PlumClan territory as if expecting a patrol any moment to see them over the border.
Slatefoot rolled her shoulders as she padded out of the creek bed, brushing past Heavy to rub her cheek alongside her mother’s own and then brushing past Stemriver, purring deeply to comfort her father’s obvious worry about her latest mishap. ”I’m fine,” she told them both, though she was rather discontent at the fact that she had missed the rabbit.

 Scarletdrift - Hunting Patrol with ThushfleckScarletdrift lead Thrushfleck out of camp, it had been the younger warriors idea to go hunting to dusk, and Scaretdrift had agreed. The sun was setting, and most of the other cats were in camp, sharing fresh-kill or sharing tongues. But the two of them were going out, and if they found anything it would be fresh for the cats that had to get up for the dawn patrol the next morning. Scarletdrift guided the other tomcat towards the eastern part of the territory, where he knew that his clan hadn't hunted in a few days.
Once the pair had gotten there, it was almost fully dark. Scarletdrift squinted into the darkness, his vision was... not the best. He could see the clearing, but, its features were not very defined. Scarletdrift opened his mouth, instantly pinpointing a mouse. Scarletdrift crouched down, following the scent trail until he saw the twitching of the tiny creature. He tensed his legs and leaped! Then promptly fell into the bush.
"Scarletdrift! Are you okay?!" Thrushfleck said, bounding over to him. "Yeah, I'm fine, just over jumped the prey a little bit" Scarletdrift answered. But the second he put his paw down Scarletdrift knew something was wrong. The second he put his paw down, a searing pain hit him, and he stumbled slightly. "You don't seem okay. Let me help you back to camp" Thrushfleck instsited, and Scarletdrift obliged.
(I'll get Brightleaf up later) |

Heavy »
a kittypet with mistleheart - Sapphirejas
& stemriver - @ -
It had been a while since Heavy had had a patrol with Mistleheart. It wasn’t often that she got to spend some time with the young molly she had practically raised while stuck in camp due to her broken bone and then expecting her own litter of kits. It was nice to see how well Mistleheart had grown into her role as warrior, a purr rumbling in the back of Heavy’s throat. The white and gray molly had become a fine warrior for YewClan, and Heavy couldn’t be prouder.
These thoughts were pushed to the side when a strong aroma caught her off guard. Heavy took a step back, nose wrinkled and fur instinctively bristling. ”What is that?” She hissed mostly to herself, needing a second to take in the smell before realizing what it was - the calico had smelled scents like this before, back when she had been a loner and traveled around. She had met many a cat with this particular scent before, cats who had never lived out in the wilderness but would sometimes venture out into it just to see what it was like for a day before returning to their housefolk at night.
Kittypet!
As if on cue a flash of brown emerged from the nearby bushes and the soft-furred head of a kittypet burst through, wide blue eyes frantic and yearning. Heavy had never been hostile toward kittypets before - she saw no need in it since a kittypet wouldn’t be able to hurt her even if one tried - and that wasn’t about to change. She cocked her head to the side in question and slowly approached the brown tabby, curious as to why the kittypet was out here in the first place. She silently signaled with her tail for Stemriver and Mistleheart to follow alongside her, but to remain calm. ”What’s a kittypet like you doing in YewClan territory?” Heavy asked softly, no signs of anger or threat in her words. She was simply curious, eager to know what this cat was doing so far away from a twoleg’s den.
Slatefoot »
hunting patrol with dappleswipe- lazzylake & hazelpelt
Slatefoot blamed the dreary weather for her running nose. The dark-furred warrior had been fine the night before, curling up happily into her nest that she had made beside Mistleheart some moons ago, and when she had woken up, not only was it raining outside, but her nose was oozing with its own drizzle. While it was certainly annoying, it wasn’t anything to run to Stormmask about. The medicine cat was surely busy enough without having to deal with a minor runny nose, and unless it turned into something else, Slatefoot was going to just deal with it on her own - she wasn’t happy about it, but she just had to get on with her duties as per usual.
She had to admit though, it felt great being able to go on a patrol still. Despite the weather and the inconvenience of a runny nose, Slatefoot proudly stalked through the rain-washed forest of YewClan just a few paces behind Dappleswipe and Hazelpelt, the newest member of YewClan. Slatefoot was glad to see a new face being welcomed into the Clan, but she was curious to see how a kittypet could adapt to Clan life. Slatefoot had never heard of a kittypet becoming part of a Clan, but she supposed if a loner like Heavy could join a Clan, then why not a kittypet? It was true that kittypets had twolegs to feed them and take care of them - which sounded odd to Slatefoot, but who was she to judge? - but maybe Hazelpelt could prove that she could fend for herself just fine. Perhaps that was why Dappleswipe had placed her on this particular patrol, so that both deputy and YewClan’s obvious future leader could both assess the former kittypet and decide whether or not she was worthy of being a warrior.
So far, though, Slatefoot was rather unimpressed. The brown tabby was prancing about like a carefree deer, having not stopped once to even scent the air and check for any prey that could be around. Slatefoot silently glanced toward Dappleswipe, wondering if the deputy was feeling the same spark of annoyance that Slatefoot was at Hazelpelt’s ignorance. |

Stormmask & Spottedfur — lungwort patrol
Stormmask was on patrol with her father, Spottedfur, who had offered to help her gather some lungwort. Since the marigold had gone bad and Bubblingstar still had a broken bone, she hoped to find some today. However, lungwort seemed more important to the medicine cat. It was a crucial herb to have when fighting yellowcough epidemics which YewClan was quite familiar with.
As they padded through the forest, it began to drizzle. Spottedfur shook out his speckled pelt with a grumble and Stormmask snorted in amusement at the tom's reaction. He had never been fond of rain, but at least mid-newleaf was finally here. It was a relief for both cats. They neared a wide, vivid green clearing. Plenty of plants were beginning to bloom. "Let's split up, Spottedfur. You can head a bit towards the east and I'll head west. Do you remember what lungwort looks like?" Stormmask meowed, glancing at the old tom.
Spottedfur turned towards the grey tabby she-cat before nodding, ”Lungwort has dark green leaves? Isn't there something else on them? A flower maybe?"
Stormmask paused, grinning at her father. "Grey speckles just like your pelt," she told him. "If you find any, you better tell me!"
The duo split up, both cats headed in their respective direction. Stormmask kept her nose close to the plants, sniffing around for lungwort. She was finding everything but lungwort which hit her chest with a deep pang. She desperately needed lungwort, even though her clanmates weren't sick right now. The medicine cat’s copper eyes grew wide as she noticed green leaves with dark speckles. Could that be lungwort? She investigated further and let out a sigh— it wasn’t lungwort.
In the meantime, Spottedfur was having troubles of his own. He couldn’t find any lungwort, but the tom came across plenty of wildflowers. Their presence was almost distracting to him. Still, he forced himself to continue on and scour the clearing for lungwort.
It was almost dusk when Stormmask and Spottedfur had ended up near each other. They had scoured the entire clearing for lungwort and yet none was to be found. The senior warrior was visibly frustrated whereas Stormmask was holding onto a sliver of hope. Suddenly, the grey tabby molly saw a patch of lungwort not far from her paws. ”Come help! I found lungwort,” she exclaimed as relief washed over her.
The pair began harvesting the herb carefully and leaving its roots in the ground. They only needed the leaves and if Stormmask needed a spot to find lungwort, this would be the place.
Once they finished gathering the herb, the medicine cat carried it in her jaws. Both cats were exhausted and stayed silent in their return to camp.

Cat's name: Hazelpelt Description: Hazelpelt is an small cat by typical Warrior standards, no doubt due to her to kittypet heritage. Her long fur is silky, with a cinnamon base and darker brown classic tabby markings; which make her pale blue eyes pop in contrast! Having lost her way from her Two-legs home, she's still not sure if clan life is for her. And she keeps her collar in the secret hope she might be able to still find her way back. - jaybun!
I understand that my cats will eventually die during the course of the game. I understand that while I may influence my character's actions and relationships, the game's random events will ultimately decide my cat's fate. |

HAZELPELT - Found by Heavy, Stemriver, Mistleheart
To say Hazel was scared would be an understatement.
The forest around her loomed, casting long, dark shadows across every step she took. She'd thought she'd been just a few tail-lengths away from her Nestfolk- but minutes had turned to hours to days; and Hazel eventually had to admit she'd likely never find her way back. If she'd known how terrifying everything out here would be, she would've stayed put in that little bag; no matter how scary the car was!
She'd seen other cats from her nest's windows, occasionally, and she had always wondered what the outside was like. Now that she knew though, Hazel wondered if they were really just stupid. There was no food to be found, none that should could find. It was freezing at night, and hot during the day; with no beds to curl up in. Earlier she'd even been chased by a giant bird!
Hazel was scared, and miserable, and tired, and hungry. And just as it seemed it maybe would stay that way until she fell asleep forever; a voice carried over the air. A spike of energy pricked her pelt at the sound, and she bounded through the undergrowth till she popped! into a small clearing. Relief flooding her overworked body at the sight of other cats, no matter how big and scary they seemed.
What's a kittypet like you doing in Yewclan territory? the pretty calico asked, and Hazel nearly teared up in joy. She didn't know what a kittypet was, or what a You-clan was, but she could talk to someone- at last!
"I'm lost," the words left her in a panicked slurry, "I'm lost, and I can't find my home, please?"
HAZELPELT - Hunting with Dappleswipe, Slatefoot Yewclan's territory was a dizzying array of colors and scents for Hazel's underused senses. She had never seen so much before, and she was incredibly glad to the two cats guiding her. It felt like she could take a step in any direction and get lost again, maybe forever! They were apparently hunting, something Hazel had never done before, and she wondered how in the world they were supposed to start. The two clan warriors were nearly completely silent, and no matter how hard she tried to mimic them; Hazel could never get her pawsteps to match. Ah, and she kept forgetting her new name! She wasn't sure how 'pelt' added to her...warriorness? But everyone had seemed very excited about it, so she'd happily accepted. After all, she owed Yewclan a lot for taking her in! |

 jaybun!, FeathertalonMistleheart (Finding Hazelpelt, the kittypet, with Heavy and Stemriver while on a border patrol) Mistleheart purred against the back of the cat who raised her, Heavy. Alongside her and Stemriver, the three cats were out on a border patrol. She, alongside Heavy picked up the strong scent of an unknown cat in the distance. Mistleheart and the rest of the patrol walked to where the cat is. The bush was rustling in front her. The white and gray warrior poked her head inside the bush, to see a frightened golden brown she-cat with a red collar. " A kittypet..." Thought Mistleheart. She rolled her eyes. This cat does not show any loyality to any Clans. In fact, she must've been loyal to her Twolegs. What is she doing out there, all alone?! Heavy padded towards the kittypet, now exposed. " What is a kittypet like you doing in YewClan's territory?" " I'm lost" mewed the kittypet, terrified " I'm lost and I can't find my home, please?" Mistleheart sat down and stared at the kittypet very intensely. " Stemriver, Heavy, this is the first cat we have found out in the wilderness in many moons! YewClan is low on warriors, I say, we bring this kittypet into the Clan and ask Bubblingstar to see if she can join YewClan! That way, she can be become loyal to a Clan, rather than Twolegs. What is your name, kittypet?" Stemriver's ears twitched. " I don't think it is a good idea, Mistleheart. This is a kittypet! She doesn't know Clan life! But the final word is Bubblingstar of course! We might as well take her back to camp to hear what our leader has to say with this kittypet!" Mistleheart purred, happy that Stemriver agreed to take the kittypet back to camp. She awaited Heavy's response and for the kittypet to tell her what her name is. ____ OOC: Sorry for the lack of relationship pips! I've been busy at university and I've hadn't had much time to write replies.  |

Heavy shifted her gaze between Mistleheart and Stemriver. Both sides sounded like valid arguments - YewClan was low on warriors, sadly so. No kits had been born since Heavy’s litter, and the last time a newcomer had joined the Clan he had quickly passed away from the yellowcough outbreak two leaf-bares ago. An ache still lingered in the former loner’s heart as she recalled Deerleaf. He had not been in the Clan long, but while he had been he had been a well-rounded warrior who served well. Heavy had hoped to form a relationship with the tomcat, eager to befriend another outsider, but alas, StarClan - or whatever ancestors there were - had twisted a cruel fate upon him and allowed the yellowcough to eat him up from inside in. Heavy stifled a scoff at the thought. Why Clan cats were so devoted to a dead Clan of cats that appeared more evil than good was beyond her.
Stemriver’s argument made sense as well - Heavy had not been part of a Clan when she had first stumbled upon YewClan. Before her life here she had lived the wandering life of a loner, free to do and go as she pleased. It had been her whole life, and the life she would have kept up had it not been for her terrible injury that kept her stuck in YewClan for seasons upon seasons; over time she had grown to care about the cats who had taken her in - namely Stemriver at first, then Stormmask and Mistleheart - and now she knew her life belonged in YewClan. Yet even before she joined the Clan she had lived a life outside. Heavy understood how hard it could be to catch prey for herself, how hard it could be to survive out in the wilderness. A kittypet…not so much. And judging by this kittypet’s sleek fur, Heavy doubted the brown tabby had ever lived a day outside.
Her ears twitched in thought, a tight expression pulling at her lips. Eventually she loosened and nodded toward the kittypet, offering a gentle smile. ”I say we bring you back with us to our camp. Our leader, Bubblingstar, can speak with you and decide if you can stay or not.” Knowing how that sounded, Heavy quickly added, ”He’s a fair-minded tom. The worst that’ll happen is you’ll have a nest to sleep in tonight.” Turning to her Clanmates, Heavy flicked her tail in a silent signal to tell them to start heading for camp. Before following suit she glanced back to the kittypet and mewed, ”I’m Heavy, by the way. What’s your name?” This was sure to be nerve-wracking for the kittypet. Finding a way to ease the other molly’s anxiety would make this whole ordeal a lot easier on her and even the Clan cats involved. |

We have a war, folks! So far, no injuries, but if yall want to have a rather bloodless border skirmish to kick things off, feel free to plan that scene among yourselves~ It might help and make more drama later if someone wants to volunteer their cat to "start" the war with an argument or prey stealing or something!!
Also I'm LIVING for the Heavy and Hazelpelt training patrol <3 I've never seen the interaction of specifically a pair of insecure warriors and it was super cute <3
I think instead of patrol modifiers and numbers and all that, I might just... use my own discretion when making patrol choices (based on the circumstances, the cats' personalities, and what would be the most interesting outcomes to rp). I have a good feel for what outcomes are possible to roll for each event in the forest territory. ]]

(Oh goodness, okay! I really need to get something in this moon since Dappleswipe is technically in charge with Bubblingstar injured. Dew Do you think Dappleswipe and Scarletdrift can have an interaction with each other to discuss war preparations? I think that would tie in with their pips nicely. Sorry I haven’t been active lately. Life has been throwing tons of curveballs. Not to mention my birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks. On a moon day, no less! I’m crossing my fingers for new kits on that day so I can claim one hehe- I DIDN’T NOTICE BUBBLINGSTAR’S INJURY WAS INFECTED. Oh no we’re off to a bad start-) |

(That would be really interesting!! For Dappleswipe’s patrol, I was planning for Stemriver and Thrushfleck to feel guilty about the war, so that could fit since they all have FlowerClan ancestry. I’ll probably get that up tonight or early tomorrow. Dew would you mind doing the starter? I could get something up for Dappleswipe and Brightleaf’s chat after I write the patrol.) |

I was working on writing for my main character in the ClanGen mod, LifeGen. I haven't finished it yet, since it is so sad, so I finished the evening playing Stardew Valley 1.6, because I didn't want to write anymore. Please forgive me!
