Ranks:
Stormclan has ranks unique from the traditional ranks of other clans, with fixed suffixes for many of them.
Here are the basic ranks based on chronological order:
Kit - Suffix: cloud - Just a kit
Apprentice - Suffix: bolt or boom - are trained by lightning or thunder warriors respectively. Bolts or booms are chosen from birth
Lightning Warrior - Suffix: chosen - lightning warriors are lithe and agile, usually in charge of day-to-day hunting and secret services
Thunder Warrior - Suffix: chosen - thunder warriors are strong and muscled, usually in charge of battle, guarding the camp and border patrols
Elder - Suffix: from their warrior - Have retired at the age of 100 moons, are cared for by the apprentices and low-lies
Here are the special ranks based on chronological order:
Medicine Apprentice - Suffix: drop - are trained by the medicine cat
Medicine Cat - Suffix: rain - in charge of healing the clan
Queen - Suffix: lake - are mothers to kits, warriors become queens when they are 1 moon into pregnancy and leave after their kits are apprentices
Low-Lie - Suffix: none, they are just called by a prefix of 'mud', 'puddle', 'dust', etc. - low-lies are those who have committed crimes against the clan. They must obey all orders, even from kits. They are seen as nothing more than servants and are often used as battle training for apprentices. Low-lies have no value to the clan, they only keep them to punish them after their crime. They must scavenge to eat (they are not given food from the clan) and usually die of wounds or hunger a few moons after they are stripped of their rank. If low-lies prove themselves worthy, they may return to a permanent drizzle cat rank.
Drizzle Cat - Drizzle cats are low-ranking warriors, who clean out moss and perform all the mundane clan tasks.
Deputy - Suffix: blast - Pretty much deputy. They organize the patrols and are in charge of low-lies, will be leader after leader dies
Leader - Suffix: storm - Have 9 lives, and are in charge of the clan. They have ultimate power over how much food each cat receives and are able to sentence cats to banishment or execution. They become leader after becoming deputy.
