For as long as any can remember, clans of wild cats have existed, and for as long as they have existed, there have always been loners, rogues, and kittypets looking to join them, hoping to find fellowship and safety in numbers.
However, many clans proved to be very selective when it came to who was allowed to join their ranks. Some cats were turned away based on their backgrounds, unusual appearances, identities, and beliefs. Others were accepted, but only if they agreed to conform to the clan's ways in whatever way they could.
Those who were rejected and didn't want to conform eventually decided that they'd had enough, and formed their own clan: WildClan, where all were welcome and could be wild and free.
Discussion thread
WildClan are very lax compared to other clans...almost too much so. They have been known to bend parts of the warrior code to their liking and will generally accept anyone into their clan, so long as they don't pose a threat. However, because there are so many cats in WildClan from different backgrounds with differing beliefs, it's not uncommon for disagreements to arise between clanmates. While WildClan was founded on the principle of accepting others as they are and not imposing customs and beliefs onto them or forcing them to conform, this principle itself is often the cause of tension within the clan. Some cats, especially clan-born ones, believe that WildClan is too lax now and that clan values have been lost over time. Others, typically former non-clan cats, think that WildClan is just fine the way it is. Rumors spread that WildClan is on the brink of a civil war, but whether or not that's true, only time will tell.

Rules:
1. Just like the clan itself, this roleplay is meant to be a fairly lax one, similar to clan roleplays from the late 2000s to mid 2010s. This means that characters don't have to be 100% realistic. Cats with semi-unrealistic pelt colors, eye colors, names, different beliefs and backgrounds and other traits are allowed and encouraged! However please don't go crazy. No OP/Mary-Sue characters, pink cats with wings or former BloodClan members with emo bangs. This roleplay is still meant to be taken seriously at the end of the day, just a bit more relaxed, so please do not create ridiculously over-the-top/joke characters.
2. This roleplay is intended to be a pretty active and fast-moving one, so keep that in mind when joining. I prefer if you post at least once weekly, and if you have a high-ranking character this is required. With that said, your posts don't have to be very long. You can keep them simple, short and sweet, or you can write several paragraphs if you want! Just make sure you write enough to give others something to work with and respond to.
3. No reservations, high-ranking positions are first come, first served. If you want a high rank, better get in there quick! Only one high rank per person.
4. No two living cats may have the same prefix, and no cat may have the Wild- prefix. Additionally try to keep your characters original, if part of yours is too similar to someone else's, it may have to be changed. This clan is meant to be full of different, unique cats after all.
5. Proper grammar and spelling please.
6. You can't be your own mate/crush or mentor/apprentice.
7. Please keep all forms and ooc conversation to the discussion thread.
8. You can make your own form, but it must include appearance, name, age, gender, rank, and any other additional info about your cat such as personality or history if it is relevant.
9. No NPC characters.
10. Although it may go against the spirit of the clan, I reserve the right to ask you to change anything about your character if I deem it to be too unrealistic, inappropriate, or otherwise unfit for the roleplay, and to add or make changes to these rules at any time as I see fit.

Territory:
WildClan lives in the Forest Territories that were once inhabited by ThunderClan, RiverClan, WindClan, and ShadowClan. In a turn of events, the twolegs' destruction of the forest, which caused the other clans to leave, inexplicably ceased one day and was never completed. The forest and wildlife were allowed to recover and grow back, and many moons later, WildClan settled there, guided by StarClan. They now reside in what was once ThunderClan's old camp, and while they know all of the landmarks of the territory by their original names--presumably told them by StarClan--they know not of the clans that once lived there. As such, they simply refer to the former clans' territories as the Moorland, the Marshland, and the Island, respectively. All of the Forest Territories are now WildClan territory, making their claim on the land quite expansive, and many different flora and fauna can be found there, far more than there was moons ago when the original four clans lived there.
However, many clans proved to be very selective when it came to who was allowed to join their ranks. Some cats were turned away based on their backgrounds, unusual appearances, identities, and beliefs. Others were accepted, but only if they agreed to conform to the clan's ways in whatever way they could.
