ⓜⓘⓢⓣⓒⓛⓐⓝ - the mountains will prosper

[.mischief managed.]

Your paws are sore. You long to stop walking. All you want, is to lie down, fall asleep, maybe give up. Everything around you seems like an obstacle- the smallest branch trips you, makes you stumble. You're exhausted.
And then you smell it. The scent catches you off guard, but it makes you realize, you are not alone in these woods.
Before you know it, you are knocked onto your side, and your fatigue doesn't allow you to get up again. You look up to see a tom looming over you, his lips parted in a snarl.
"What's your business here, kittypet?" He hisses.
As you explain yourself, your past, and where you come from, his snarl transforms into a smile.
"So you want to join us? Very well. Mistclan always welcomes new Warriors." He waves his tail for you to follow him.
"But first, you will speak with our leader. Come with me." And disappears into the brush the way he came.

Story

Here in the mountains, lives a strong, thriving band of cats, who's pads are rough from scraping over the rocks, and muscles ripple under their pelts as they bound from ledge to ledge.
Once known as The Tribe of Rushing water, these cats faced great divisions amongst their ranks. Some of the tribe began to believe that the way of the clan cats was a much better path. Once the initial opinion was voiced, it sparked many others to agree.
After moons of quarreling with one another, one bold tom known as Owl That Hunts At Night gathered his followers, and parted from the tribe once and for all. The group traveled far to the other side of the mountains, where trees grew taller, mist crept along the rocky ground, and foliage was much more abundant.
There they stayed, where they found Starclan's guidance, and Owl That Hunts At Night became Owlstar. With his new name and granted nine lives, he lead his new clan to bloom and succeed in the path of new ancestors, the Tribe of Endless Hunting behind them.
Hence, Mistclan was born for generations to come.
But will they remain peaceful, with the Tribe of Rushing Water's resentful cats just around the corner? Only time will tell.
Note: Tigerstar is now the current and third ever leader of Mistclan.

!! This Roleplay was in the Semi-Lit board, but I do not expect paragraphs per post. It wasn't receiving much attention there, because of the lower writing requirement I have set up, so I asked it to be moved here. Still, it is designed for players who are too advanced for the regular role-play forum, but not quite ready for Semi-Lit+/Lit/Lit+. EX: an inbetweener, if you will . Please do not sign up if you can not write three sentences (with good grammar) per post. !!



Rules
-Tess's Rules

-At LEAST three good bloody sentences per post. Always. That is literally all I ask. ( That means no writing "Lilytail smiled." as your whole post for that cat.)

-This clan is not as traditional as the Lake Clans. They do some things a bit different, and they do have two sets of Medicine Cats/Apprentices.

- Don't worry about joining late. I will see to it that you receive a full recap and are not left out. I have four cats and will find away to interact with you myself, if no one else can.

-Please try to keep genders even. (: I prefer if everyone had 2 characters, but not required.

-You can be descended from a canon character, (A cat from the books) but you can not be them, their sister, brother, parent, etc. Unless they are seen in a dream/deliver a prophecy/in a flashback. The era of this RP is about the time of the Final Battle, so no clan/tribe contact has been made for seasons. The only exception is if your cat is a grumpy old Elder or Senior Warrior, who has been alive since the Great Journey, such as Mousefur or Greystripe. (Poor Mousefur, we miss her ) Whatever, just make it realistic/believable. Ok? Ok.

-Drama is VEEEERY encouraged, but please consult me about larger events.

-Only one higher rank character per person

-Use your own form please, and make it nice and detailed. If you really can't make one, or even borrow one from somewhere else, PM me.

-Your form is an example of your writing skills. It doesn't have to be long by all means, but even a few sentences tells me whether your grammar is good enough to be accepted. Unfortunately - or fortunately - depending on your viewpoint, I have the right to turn away people that I don't think will thrive in this RP. This is not a personal offense, and there are plenty of other RP's out there for you to be a part of.

-NO chatspeak in your posts. OOC Chatspeak is fine, though.

-If you disappear for 2 weeks without notice, I will Remove your cats. Please be active. People don't like waiting a week for a reply.

-If you skipped here because you were too lazy to read all the rules, and are looking for a 'codeword', leave the page, and do not join. This RP will involve a lot of reading.

Mistclan's camp and dens are in the overgrown ruins of some abandoned mountain village. The Leader makes announcements from those stairs, and the Leader's den is at the top of the stairs. The other dens are within the rocky out-coves along the bottom. The Medicine den is the hole on the far right. The inside looks like this. The picture doesn't show, but the clearing is surrounded by thorns and thistle to keep out intruders. behind the ruins that all the dens are in (The other side of this house looking structure,) there is a drop, and the stream in the medicine den goes through to the other side like a tunnel. That area looks like this, the camp is at the very back, where that high spot is. That overhanging tree is covering where the old village ruin would be standing.
The Mooncave is a large cave at the top of a ridge. It is accessed by going to the gorge, and climbing up a rocky path to get to it's entrance.

◤.................................◥
Tigerstar
Half blind tortoiseshell she-cat
◣.................................◢

name ] "It's Tigerstar," she sniffs.
age ] "48 Moons."
rank ] Leader
gender ] "Female, or couldn't you tell?"
--
eye color ] Tigerstar's eyes are a pale green. Depending on the lighting, they can seem almost grey, or, on brighter days may seem to have yellow undertones. They are, however, cold looking, and sometimes seem to stare right through you- which is half accurate. This she-cat is in fact blind on her right side, but you would only ever guess she was if you caught her cocking her head at an awkward angle to get a better look at you.
pelt color ] A very pretty pale grey and ginger tortoiseshell she-cat, with faded, messy tabby stripes along her back. Her colors seem faded compared to other tortoiseshells and she is quite unique.
markings ] There's no hiding the ugly, array of scars along one of her back paws. It serves as a reminder of a fox trap incident, and makes Tigerstar's paw look mangled. Her ears are battered from scrapping with rogues and dogs, and there is a pink slash mark across her muzzle.
body ] No matter how much you feed her, Tigerstar stays quite thin. She was a runt when she was a kit, which would explain her small frame, but the she-cat still puts up an arguably decent fight with cats exceeding her size. Some could mistake her for an apprentice, but looking closely you can see that she has the muscular build of a fully grown Warrior.
--
traits ] Tigerstar has a bit of a sharp tongued and rude disposition. She tends to snap at newcomers easily, and doesn't trust just anyone. Once you befriend her, though, she grows on you, and once you have her trust, it'd be wise not to betray it.
Tigerstar is as wise as her experiences allow it. Her opinions are always honest and she has the best intentions to fix problems in the best way possible. Those who have known her long know that she is quite nice under her 'security blanket' of seeming snappy. If you really get her in a good mood, it's like night and day. Her eyes may even sparkle with content, if you're lucky.
She is reliable and trustworthy, and will always stay loyal to her Clan.
Voice: Vitani(Kovu's sister) From The Lion King
history ] Born to, and raised by the Rogue, and former Clan cat (exiled for reasons unknown) Ravencall. After her mother's disappearance when she was a little over 9 moons, Tigerstar learned quickly to fend for herself, fighting off rival cats and hunting for her own prey. When she was found by a hunting party at apprentice age, she was taken in and trained as a Warrior.




◤.................................◥
Ravenclaw
Ambitious Maine Coon tom
◣.................................◢

Name]
Ravenclaw
Rank]
Warrior
Gender]
Tom
Desired Rank]
"Deputy.... But, don't let the others know that. I don't want to seem too ambitious..." He glances around uneasily.
Personality]
As a kit/apprentice, Ravenpaw would always be trailing behind the Senior Warrior's paws. He was always focused on being the best Warrior he could be. Occasionally he can come off as bossy, cocky, and annoying, but is truly a kind respectable young tom.
He's a great fighter, but lacks in hunting skills. Ravenclaw does not enjoy being criticized on his fighting moves. He believes he is ready for an apprentice and is excited for the day he is assigned one.
History]
There have always been whisperings that Ravenclaw came from a kittypet home. He was found by a hunting party when he was no more than a moon old, down by the thunderpath that winds through the Clan's territory. He was fat, clean, and well fed, but no scent of two-legs was found on him. Ravencall is larger than most cats and clearly a purebred Maine Coon; something that is uncommon to any Loner or Clan cat.
Pelt]
His fur's patterns swirl around with golden and brown colors, making him look like a bobcat. He has Bobcat-like tufts of fur on the tips of his ears, and a long, wispy haired tail.
Body Type]
Ravenclaw is quite huge, and does not look his age. He is broad shouldered and very muscular, and could easily be mistaken for a full grown Senior Warrior.
Eyes]
Bright Yellow-Green
Age]
37 Moons
Other]
Voice: Tramp, From Lady and the Tramp

↭ Otterpaw was born to a lone rogue, who's name was Goldenflower. She died giving birth to her, but thank-fully, Otterpaw was born in Mistclan territory. Several days later, a patrol found her and took her back to camp. They gave her mother a proper burial; one a warrior would be proud of. Otterpaw was raised by many foster queens, and soon decided to become a medicine cat. She hated seeing others being hurt around her and not being able to do anything. She didn't want to use tooth and claw to fight, but instead she wanted the wisdom of walking a medicine cat's path.

xxxxxThe reason for Foxfrost's name becomes extremely obvious when you first look at her. Short, russet red fur covers her body and bright icy eyes draw attention to her face. While her body looks as if it's more skin and bones than anything else, but in fact she's covered in lean, almost unnoticeable muscle. This comes in handy for her, as she's skilled in using speed, swiftness, and intelligence and prefers to use it over brute strength. Due to her petite stature she's very graceful, and holds an important air about her unintentionally.

xxxxxFoxfrost is often described in one of two ways; the nicest she-cat you could ever meet, or the most sarcastic, biting she-cat to ever walk the earth. To people whom she cares for and respects, she has a heart of gold. She always makes herself available to talk to her clanmates and give them advice, and prides herself on being trustworthy and personable. But once you cross the line and violate her respect for you by not showing it in return, the she-cat turns cold and brisk. Sarcastic comments and cruel truths spew whenever she gets the chance, and the frost in her tone is quite apparent. Being on her black list isn't fun, and once you're there it's hard to get off of it; it would take a true act of valor to make her trust you again.

xxxxxHer past isn't something she likes to talk about; she's been betrayed by her family and friends one too many times, and has now learned her lesson. Her past maltreatment is the reason for her quick temper, and the reason she worked so hard to reach her position.

xxxxxThis tom's appearance is one that can look intimidating or comforting depending on how he feels towards you. With a lot of well-defined muscles and broad frame, it's easy for him to look like he could inflict some serious damage onto an unlucky cat, and his strength is obvious. But his long, fluffy fur gives him a very cuddly look when he's in a good mood, and lends him a tendency to be popular with the kits. His dark, earthy coloring makes it easy for him to blend into his surroundings, often going unnoticed when he wants to.

xxxxxHawkshadow is your typical 'nice guy'. He prefers to listen more than he talks, opting to stay out of other cat's business, and so he's earned a mysterious air about him. He would much rather be useful than gossip, but he doesn't judge others for doing so. Training and hunting take up whatever time isn't being used to aid his clan, and he rarely makes enemies with anyone because he knows they're all allies, and should be treated like family no matter what. The fact that he's so calm and so kind make him a very well-liked tom among she-cats, whether romantically or in a platonic manner. He often checks in on the queens and kits, as they're the future of the clan, and doesn't realize how he comes off. Hawkshadow's just trying to be the best clan member he can.

xxxxxBeing born and raised in the clan, he has a strong sense of pride in it. His father and mother were both highly respected warriors up until they're passing, and strives to follow in their footsteps.
