You are walking through a desert. All around you there is nothingness... just an endless
expanse of sand and rock and gravel.. without a single drop of water to drink. Sure, there's bushes and the occasional tree, but
other than the hum of bugs, the sound of your paws on the desert floor, and a distant coyote howl, there's no sign of life.
Mountains rise up in the distance and there are gorges and dips in the sandy earth before you. You're parched and starving, and
desperate for a place to rest. All hope seems to be lost...But suddenly.. you spot it, just up ahead. Could it be?
Yes, an oasis! Filled with a large lake of water in its center and groves of trees and parched underbrush! Suddenly a cat comes
racing towards you and hisses. He is a tomcat, long-legged and skinny, yet still fearsome, "Why are you on DesertClan territory,
outsider? What business do you have here?" He asks you with his eyes baleful green eyes narrowed to slits.
You back up, nervous around the hostile male. "I didn't know I was on your territory. What is DesertClan anyway?" you ask,
confused.
The sandy-colored, wiry tomcat sighs, suddenly letting his guard down and letting his aggression droop. "Come back to the Oasis
with me and I'll explain. By the way, my name's Scorchstar.. and you'll do well to remember it, if you'll be staying with us."

Welcome to DesertClan.. home of the hard-headed, strong-willed, and loyal. This band of
tough Clan cats was formed many moons ago by a loner named Desert. They been living here for countless moons, but these
survivors might just perish...
