"Peace and chivalry
A warrior's code,
Courage and kindness
never get old.

Intelligence and bravery
are well-known,
Honesty and thoughtfulness
set the tone.

Patience and power
always shown,
Selflessness and gratitude
traits to own.

With loyalty and happiness
in our bones,
The best and the brightest
Are derived from stone."

StoneClan has always been a peaceful clan. With no clan even remotely close to them and the power of numbers to keep any others away, StoneClan hasn't had any real conflicts with other cats. In fact, the only known conflicts have been with cats within the clan causing trouble, but even then there is nothing very special about the history of StoneClan. Many, many generations ago they were a few cats scattered throughout the mountains that came together to form a clan. A few generations later they were forced to move to the forest at the base of the mountain. Really, it's quite boring.

However, peace might not be an option for StoneClan anymore. The first prophecy StoneClan has ever heard has been delivered, and from the sounds of it...
Well, things might not be so boring in StoneClan history anymore.
Will you join them on their journey to solve the prophecy and save the clan?

Ｐｒｏｐｈｅｃｙ

"Past the night of StarClan's fall,
You will hear nothing at all.
Not a whisper, not a sound;
Not a hint of what's gone down.

The Tiger and his honored guard
Brave the mountains, getting scarred;
They must go and find High Peak,
For only then is when we speak."

_____________________________

A meteor shower will happen one night, a phenomenon the clan cats have never encountered. Panicked, they believe that something is wrong with StarClan, especially after they go completely silent on all occasions. There is a long-lost holy spot in the mountains from the old territory that is the only place left where StarClan can be reached in their time of crisis. However, the whereabouts of this mysterious legend have been long since forgotten, High Peak itself just a story passed from medicine cat to medicine cat. It certainly won't be easy, but Tigerstep and a guard of several warriors must brave the mountains to find High Peak if StoneClan has any hope of saving their warrior ancestors...
But little do they know, it does not end here.

1. The same member's cats may NOT:
Mentor each other,
have crushes on each other,
or be mates with each other.
2. Cats may only have up to four kits.
Any more than that overcrowds the role play.
3. No complaining if you don't get an apprentice.
The pairings are completely random.
4. Any graphic mating scenes should fade to black.
'Cause that's just gross...
5. Have fun with it!
Relationships make great, long-lasting role plays.
6. Remember to ask all members before including their
cats in relationship drama unless it is a simple crush.
Nobody wants to just suddenly find out their cat is a lying
cheater! Nobody in this role play has done this so far, but it
is still a good thing to keep in mind.

Ｔｈｅ Ｈｉｓｔｏｒｙ



StoneClan is a rather old clan. Its original ties can be traced to the mountains, where the first tentative formation of a clan started. Cats from all over the mountains came to join the group on rumors that it would be a much easier way to survive, which can obviously vary from time to time. However, in this case, the young group thrived like no cats in the mountains had before; a leader was named, then a second-in-command called a deputy, then two medicats, then the body of warriors. Young cats at that time were just immediately considered warriors, since the group wasn't quite seen as a working family-type group yet. Most cats still didn't really trust each other, and any kits born were jealously protected and ended up being taught everything they knew through their own parents and experience.

The group didn't really stay together in one general area, either; every cat had its own little place to go back to after clan functions, and most days, the whole body of cats didn't show. Only once a moon- on the full moon -did every single cat show up, and even then, they tended to keep to themselves and listen as the leader and deputy dealt out duties. This is really what costed the clan so many lives when the Great Fall happened.

One day, an avalanche of snow and rocks came crashing down the mountainside, engulfing the entire area StoneClan inhabited. Most were forced to run, and those that saw each other banded together. Pretty soon, the whole remainder of the clan was running together until they reached the base of the mountain.

StoneClan had easily been reduced to half their previous number, not nearly enough for a full clan. However, they stuck together for about another moon; they were all wounded, and luckily, one of the medicats had survived and had instructed them all on basic care. Bleeding = cobwebs. Unbearable pain or sleeplessness = poppyseeds. The clan became closer than ever. One day, however, they discovered a group of forest cats. These forest cats came in strange colors; there were black cats, cats with sunset fur that they called 'orange,' and tricolor cats that could either have tabby patterns or no tabby patterns. The forest cats seemed very open and welcoming, but StoneClan was suspicious. Why would these cats just open their home up to them?

As it turns out, the forest cats had been recruiting all sorts of new members; they'd taken in several rogues and kittypets so far, but they were far more interested in StoneClan. They loved the idea of the '-Clan' name; in fact, they loved many of the ideas that StoneClan introduced, such as a deputy and a medicat. StoneClan, in turn, was fascinated with the order of these forest cats; they had something they called a warrior code, they assigned their young cats to be trained by one cat other than their parents and called them apprentices, and they assigned different cats to different dens to sleep together by rank.

In the end, StoneClan agreed to come together as one, morphing their traditions into one and thus creating a traditional clan. Nobody really knows when medicat was changed to medicine cat, but they kept it as only one medicine cat because only one of the StoneClan medicats had made it.

I keep on running
I’m building bridges that I know you never wanted
Look for my heart
You stole it away
Now on every single road that I could take
I want you to burn my bridges down
Set me on fire
You set me on fire
You can burn my bridges down

"I've made my decision." The tortoiseshell she-cat did her best to sound confident and sure, but her voice still shook. Of course she was nervous, but she could not stay in the middle of nowhere knowing she would have kits. It hurt her that Maggie did not wish to join her. She could not seem to get her to understand the urgency of safety. She supposed it was partly her fault, being so secretive. Perhaps if she just admitted that was where their father was, Maggie would be more willing to accept that they were good cats? Though she understood the hesitancy, knowing they had both had experiences with groups that were not friendly. That was part of the reason Bounce was nervous to continue on, but she knew it was the right thing.

"It's not safe out here," she continued, knowing it to be the truth. Heart pounding, she pushed on, shoving past Maggie or walking around her when she tried to get in her way. She was not even sure where she would find the group, but their scent was strong and she knew where the territory began. It was a start, at the very least. She just hoped she would be accepted once she arrived.

Standing upright, Otterfrost examined the busyness of the clan, however not many cats were up at the moment he was. Flicking a leaf from his paw, he breathed in the fresh smells of the camp, little leaves scattered the terrain as if it gave warning about leaf-fall. Studying the camp from the warrior's den, probably made him somewhat look secretive, although he wouldn't mind getting a few weird looks. Otterfrost, a bit disappointed by the lack of presence, he yawned letting out all his weariness with a single breath. Blinking to see more clearly, his morning tired eyes scanned across the camp, soon he stood up, stretching against the rays of sunshine that awoke him completely from his snooze.

Padding his way to the fresh-kill pile, he noticed a slight drop of prey, however he didn't wish to hunt when he was the only one doing so. Besides, he never liked hunting at all, the waiting for prey, stalking until you get the chance. He would rather just strike in a lively, timed manner. Looking up at the sun, he lied down on his back, letting his cold belly collect warmth from the sun's heat. He yawned again, relaxing his tense muscles.

Snoring quietly with a content dream, Honeycloud twitched her nose, feeling a presence slowly waddle it's way out of the den, giving her the impression it was already morning. Her eyes, blinked open with a dramatic sigh she turned over to see Otterfrost had left, and some of the warriors were seemingly to awake as well. Not wanting to be get up with a crowd, Honeycloud waited until everybody was out of the den, purring as she stretched lightly in her continuous slumber. Last night made her very groggy in the morning, she had gone on a patrol later in the night, came back tired, since usually she would be asleep by then. Yawning, her tail fluffed up from the heat that began to lightly shine in the den, making her squint her eyes from the brightness.

Sighing, she knew she couldn't continue sleeping in plain daylight, getting up she gave a look to some of the warriors. Nodding, she happily said "Goodmorning!" Sitting down to lick down her fur, she purred seeing the presence of another warrior. Her eyes rested on the warriors who began getting up, smiling she waved goodbye to whoever was listening, and padded outside into the daylight.

Her feelings flushed out with rising anger, gazing up at the she-cat with boiling emotions. Maggie stepped a few tail-lengths closer to Bounce, who was obviously startled by her sudden anger against her decision. "Bounce! We can take care of them, I swear! We don't know what these cats are like. If we take care of them, we can ensure their safety. Please, you can't go!"Her voice cracked carrying sadness, and worry for her closest friend. Maggie's eyes were sizzled into more than anger, it simmered down into sorrow. "I will regret letting you go...I-I mean we have come so far, we can live on our own like we have always wanted! We can have our own rules, our own family. You can't go there, not when I am not welcome..." Soon enough, she remembered Bounce's lover who had gotten her pregnant. "You... you want to go back to him don't you..?" She looked the other way, never wanting anybody to see her words making her sound so fragile, and weak.

redstrike padded back into camp, muscles rippling underneath his fiery ginger pelt. the tom had a small squirrel dangling from his jaws, which he carefully placed on the fresh kill pile. following behind him was the rest of the patrol, each with their own pieces of prey to add to the pile. duskpaw, his apprentice, had also joined them for the hunt, and redstrike had managed to keep an eye on him while doing his own hunting. duskpaw was very close to becoming a warrior, and redstrike had to make sure he was ready. "duskpaw," the ginger warrior's deep voice was aimed at the apprentice. "you're still putting your tail too close to the ground. keep it higher next time, and stop twitching it before you pounce. the last thing you want is to lose a piece of prey because of your own tail." with that, the burly tom padded away. redstrike wasn't exactly the best at giving compliments; to him, compliments were petty, and didn't help the receiver get any better. constructive criticism would let the cat know of their mistakes, and how to improve them. in the corner of his leafy green eyes, redstrike spotted his sister, fawndapple, enjoying the warm sun on a rock. he padded over to her, a small purr escaping him.

"didn't you sleep enough last night?" a voice caused the she-cat's eyes to flicker open, only to see her brother standing over her, now blocking out the sun that was just before warming her pelt. "and didn't you know it is rude to wake a sleeping cat?" fawndapple purred, rolling over so she could stand up. the she-cat stretched, allowing herself to yawn. "i haven't been sleeping for long, don't worry," she reassured her brother. "everyone was out on patrols, so i simply took advantage of the sun." the tall she-cat rubbed her pelt along redstrike's, beginning to groom his ginger fur. the tom did the same, running his raspy tongue over her chest fur. "you don't have to be so hard on him," fawndapple mewed between licks, referring to redstrike's apprentice.
"i thought you said you were sleeping," redstrike replied calmly.
fawndapple ignored his comment, shaking her head. "he's a good apprentice, redstrike. all you're doing is bringing down his confidence by constantly pointing out his flaws."
"but if i don't, then how will he know what to improve on?"
fawndapple did not reply. neither cat spoke for a while. they simply continued to groom each other in silence, listening to the rest of the clan as the camp began to fill up with cats once again.

fernpaw followed closely behind crookedtail, her mentor, as they came back into camp. the grey she-cat had shown fernpaw a few more hunting techniques, which she planned to excessively practice so she could show them off to her brother, foxpaw. "crookedtail," she mewed softly, padding faster until she walked alongside her mentor. "thank you for training me today. before you know it, i'll be the best hunter in the forest!" the young she-cat giggled, racing ahead of her mentor to bound into camp. she saw her father, redstrike, criticising his apprentice at the fresh kill pile. "poor duskpaw," fernpaw mumbled to herself. her father was quite a grumpy cat, a trait which luckily had not passed on to herself or her brothers. turning around to crookedtail once again, her warm yellow eyes shone like two tiny suns. the she-cat opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by the loud growl of her stomach. fernpaw hadn't eaten yet, and now, her stomach was letting her know it was time to do so. "would you like to share a squirrel?" fernpaw mewed politely, tail twitching slightly. she wasn't sure if her mentor was comfortable eating with her apprentice, but since the words had already left her mouth, she couldn't take them back.

Bounce barged on, doing her best to keep her emotions away; something she had never been terribly good at in the first place. She knew the moment she had crossed the border. Her chest tightened and her fur began to prickle, but she took a deep breath and reeled around to face Maggie. "I know what they are like!" she insisted, hoping her instincts were right.

Suddenly, her frustration simmered down and her expression softened, her ears pricking back up and her fur smoothing once more. Sadness overcame her dark eyes. "You mean what you always wanted," she said quietly and desperation began to fill her voice the more she spoke. "I want the family I never had. Don't you understand?" a humorless smile reached her face. Her ears suddenly shot back again. "This is not about him, this is about my kits," she snapped. She took a deep breath and her voice softened. "You would be welcome, I know it," she insisted helplessly. Her eyes glanced down at the ground before her- a clear border. "Make your decision." She nearly choked on her own words. "Come with me or let me go." She hoped beyond reason that Maggie would choose to go with her, but she knew it was a futile thought.
