JuniperClan: a clan known for their territory near Lake Superior, where they set up camp only a hop, skip, and a jump from the lake shore. These cats live in a grassy dip on the Minnesota-Canadian border, and are known for their tunnel-like dens and their long, fluffy coats that keep them warm against the chilly air that blows across the lake near their homeland. While these cats tend to be a peaceful group, it is no surprise that they are very protective of each other and the land they love. As the sun sets, you are given the option: do you join the clan of mist, or keep searching?

• Be polite, please. If you have an issue, please bring it
  up respectfully.
• I would appreciate you to make at least one of each
  gender before making whatever characters you want.
  You are not limited to one male-one female.
• Keep your forums as neat and tidy as you can.
• Post forums on the discussion thread.
• Make sure to include all basics in your forum.
• If you have a question, contact me, and I'll try
  to help you out.
• Keep oorp chat in the discussion thread.
• LGBT+ cats are accepted and can be made if you
  so choose.
• No making your own mate, and you won't get your
  own apprentice to mentor.
• Only one cat per prefix, more than one
  is too confusing.
• I expect at least 3 sentences to a reply. It's very
  hard to reply to anything lower than that, so at least
  do that much.
• To go along with that, you can not write in script. Do
  not try to get away with a sentence as '*walks over*
  *Eats prey* hey, how are you?'. If you are confused by what
  to write, please look to other posts for examples.
• If you are going to code your responses, try
  to code them so they are easy to read and don't clutter
  it too much. Otherwise it will take longer figuring them
  out than it will to read them.
• If you want a recap/have open cats, talk about
  it in the discussion thread.
• Try to read back, don't just ask for a recap every
  three posts.
• I haven't been on here in quite a while! this is
  mostly for my own sake, but if you have any suggestions,
  please message me!

JuniperClan lives in a flatland ditch-like area in northern Minnesota. As their territory edges into Lake Superior, they are very adept swimmers and hunters. However, their swimming is usually limited with the cold weather that blows through in the winter and their typically thick and long coats of fur. Much like WindClan, these cats live in a sandy pit, where most of their clan sleeps outside in the open air.

DENS
As stated earlier, most of the cats sleep outside. 'Most' being the warriors, leader, deputy, medicine cats, some of the elders, and the apprentices. They sleep together in the center of the camp and don't have assigned 'sleeping nests', as they just curl up together for warmth and leave it at that, with the occasional moss to make it a bit more comfortable. The queens and other elders take refuge in patch of creeping juniper and are kept rather warm and protected by the clan's namesake.


THE LAKE
The Lake, or Lake Superior, isn't too far from their camp, and cats usually catch fish from rivers that travel through clan's territory as they leave the Lake. This large body of water is known for being extremely cold, and even relatively cold during the warm season. However, these cats adore the lake and oftentimes take trips to wade around in the shallows and splash in the water to relax and occasionally cool off after a day of work.


HUNTING GROUNDS
JuniperClan's hunting grounds are mostly made up of shrubs and flatland, although there are a few small patches of forest growth scattered around. Most of the time during hunting trips they are able to catch small birds feasting on the juniper berries, or the voles and mice that are eating the leaves and berries underneath the shrubs. It should be noted, as well, that they also catch fish from the rivers (mentioned in The Lake.)

➳ Warrior cat code applies to the cats of JuniperClan.
➳ They must meet with border clans (if any) at the edge of The Lake between the territories once a moon to share information.
➳ A common way for someone to show their affection/romantic interest for another is to leave a river smoothed rock by where they sleep, or someplace only they usually go. Sometimes they leave something by the nest to let the cat know who left it, but most times it is anonymous unless they come forward and tell them.
➳ Medicine cats must go to the Caves, their form of the moonpool, every half moon to share their time with StarClan.
➳ Pregnant Queens, Kits, and young Apprentices are not allowed to journey down to The Lake for risk of the current pulling them away and to fend against the cold of the water.
➳ Although they are a very common plant, being given juniper berries by another cat is considered a sign of true friendship or the ending of a feud. These are sometimes given by a leader to a loner or rouge that is peaceful within their territory.
➳ New mates are typically rejoiced upon, and a small party is usually held, although it's not much more than cats congratulating them.
➳ Since the clan values mates and new love, medicine cats and mcas are not penalized for having romantic relationships (hence two medicine cats, in case one needs to join the queens in the nursery or care for their kits).

-----Lionsong sat quietly as he stared off into the distance. He had been the first to wake. Instead of sitting around and waiting for others to arise, he decided to pay the lake a visit. It was calm today, save for the occasional fish feasting on water bugs. He had fallen deep into thought, thinking about how different his life would have been if a bear hadn't killed his father. There were so many possibilities.
-----He had heard tales of his father. The only memory he had of the tom was a fuzzy face. After all, it had been 26 moons ago. It was a miracle that he even remembered the sound of his voice. He liked to believe his father looked down on him proudly from StarClan.
-----The call of a loon off in the distance made him jump, pulling Lionsong back to earth. He stood up and approached the rolling waves. A shiver ran up and down his spine as he padded into the shallow water. It was cold, but not unbearable. He looked down to see his murky reflection. His eyes shifted from his prideful lion-esque portrait to the tiny minnows approaching his paws curiously. Perhaps he should use this time to catch fish.

-----Oakleaf's eyes fluttered open slowly as he woke. Instead of getting up, he rolled on to his back, careful not to jostle anyone else awake, and stretched his legs up to the sky. He let a large yawn flow through him. Sleep still tugged down on his eyelids, but he fought to keep them open upon realizing the sun was just above the horizon.
-----With a quiet groan, Oakleaf rolled back on to his paws and stood up slowly. His stomach let out a few rumbles, and he could practically hear one of the fish on the fresh kill pile call out his name. A few more stretches later and he's stalking over to the fish he had in mind. It wasn't a big fish, but he wasn't a big cat either. Unlike Lionsong, he didn't need to eat that much.
