❝ when the rains cease to exist so shall the clan's might fall ❞

for generations dewclan has prevailed as one of the strongest cl
ans, their ferocity and determination matched by none within th
is forest. they were admired both for their strength and for thei
r willingness to help whatever cat, whether kittypet or rogue, w
ho stumbled upon their territory. it was true, throughout this gr
eat land they were loved. as seasons passed the clan only grew s
tronger and with each rainy season their numbers grew in size un
til more than fifty cats occupied the clan. but as the clan grew i
n size they drifted further from the warrior code and spoke less
with starclan that had bestowed upon them such prosperity. the
great ancestors were angered. one fatal morning twenty moons a
go a prophecy awoke the medicine cat, Marshclaw, from his slum
ber; the prophecy foretold of dewclan's demise. the rains they re
lied so heavily on after the dry season would one day stop and a t
errible sickness would descend upon the clan and diminish their n
umbers greatly. now the rainy season draws ever nearer and with
no signs of the rain for miles around the clan fears for their safet
y now more than ever. will this be the end to the mighty clan ??

❝ when you seek answers starclan shall remain silent ❞

dewclan lives in a dense forest that experiences drastic changes
during the seasons. through the late fall towards mid spring ther
e are heavy rainfalls that fill up rivers and bring the plant life ba
ck to its green state; however during the summer the high tempe
ratures and lack of rain turn the forest brown and rivers dry up q
uickly, leaving nothing but trickles and fallen leaves on the groun
d. during this time prey can become scarce and many cats who a
ren't strong enough perish. the forest covers miles and miles of l
and so the threat of twolegs is very low, however this also means
that big cats inhabit the area and can cause a major threat to th
e clan. for the most part the clan survives off rodents in the fore
st as well as fish they catch in the river that runs through the ter
ritory. the clan's camp is situated in a small ring of trees, each r
ank has its own den that is dug underneath the trees with the wa
rriors having several to choose from.

leader • tom • forty-two moons
interested in no one • with no one

Eight moons. That was how long, how long it'd been since Starclan last spoke with any cat within
the clan, even Mangepelt had heard nothing in that time. The oh so great ancestors seemed to b
e abandoning them and with that the leader's faith in the holy clan was faltering even further th
an what it once had been. Due to this the prophecy that still continued striking fear into others
did not bother the leader; at this point he ignored it and attributed the lack of rainy season sign
s to occurrences in nature. The rains would return soon and the clan would continue on with life
as scheduled. Such was his thought that the bright rays of the sun finally drifted into the den an
d casted golden lines across the tom's face. His eyes blinked open slowly and he rolled from his s
ide to his belly and stared blankly head as he attempted to let the sleepiness leave him. When it
finally broke away and he felt capable of standing on four paws he walked out of the den and w
as greeted by normal clan activity, cats everywhere. Some appeared to be leaving in small groups
for a hunt while another two were returning with a rabbit between them, somewhere to the side
he could hear the sounds of kits playing with each other and an elder coughing. He stopped som
ewhere towards the center of their encampment where they day's activities were visible to him a
nd sat down to observe.

warrior • molly • thirty moons
interested in no one • with no one

The silver cat had been up since before the sun rose, sleep had not come to her easily and she had
spent so much time tossing and turning that finally she'd just stayed awake and when her belly star
ted to growl she'd gotten up to venture out on a quick hunt. Now she was deep into the trees with
her belly pressed firmly against the ground; her brightly colored coat had made hunting difficult at
times but the molly was learning to adjust and work with it better than she had before. Still, there
were many times were she moved wrong and the flash of grey sent prey scurrying into the brush be
fore she could even pounce. She was determined for this to not be the case as plump mouse sat so
me tail lengths in front of her. The feline's breathing was slow as not to make noise and every step
closer she took was taken with extreme care and caution - nothing would be cracking beneath her
paws this day. Finally she felt close enough that she'd be able to make her move. Shifting her weig
ht to her back paws she suddenly leapt forward.. without realizing her tail had become ensnared b
y a loose string of brush. As her tail pulled free it was enough to not only slow her leap but cause h
er to briefly yowl in shock; this of course alerted her prey who without hesitation disappeared into
a hole not far from where he sat. Silverclaw scarcely managed to land on all four feet and looked a
t the hole with shocked disappointment. She'd been so close to catching her breakfast.

warrior ;; tom cat ;; thirty one moons ;; central camp ;; thornstar

No one ever accused Riverdust of being a morning cat. Usually dubbed as 'lazy' for his tendency to lounge, he admittedly, did not enjoy the prospect of getting up.
But the sun was filtering into his den and causing splinters in his eyes, because apparently in his slumber, he wished to face the morning dead on and face the opening. Like a fool. Alas it could not be helped, so much for a lie in. But with the morning sun and the birds flitting nervous and loud in the trees, Riverdust - reluctantly - stretched out with a yawn and slinked out of his nest. Feeling his fur instantly warm, black and insulating, he sought out breakfast in the fresh-kill pile. Grabbing a small rodent - he suspects a mouse - and padding over to Thornstar. Who, much like himself, looked like he was struggling to come to terms with being awake. Lay next to him on his belly and began his meal, with a quiet "Morning."

blackfern ✦ she-cat ✦ twenty-seven moons ✦ warrior ✦ sleepy; bored

xxxxopening her eyes as other warriors began to slowly exit the den, blackfern reached for a stick that found its way into the hut, stuck it into the ground and lazily used it to pull herself from the position she was originally resting in with great difficulty. observing that there was only one cat remaining in the den, which was her, she strode past the entrance into the sunlight. feeling hungry, she headed towards the pile with little fresh-kill left for a late breakfast. observing the last tiny piece of rabbit left, she ate it hesitantly, thinking about taking a short hunt in the process. blackfern got up again and headed towards the 'exit' of the camp.
xxxxblackfern considered herself a 'truthfully good warrior', although she lost prey on occasion, which typically lowered her motivation in trying. she headed deeper into the forest and noticed the trees towering over her, almost blocking out the available sunlight. not really focusing on what her primary objective was, instead thinking about what she would do when she got back to camp, blackfern travelled in circles before realising what she was doing and heading back towards the camp.
xxxxit was like she lost total concentration and started daydreaming. daydreaming about the prophecy.

➸ featherpaw
⇸ apprentice / nine months / tags open

as she let out a dejected yawn, barely audible to one’s ear, featherpaw rose to her paws. throwing a pitiful glance towards the mess that once resembled her moss bed, the apprentice shook her head to rid herself of the sadness that plagued her heart. she had spent yet another night calling to starclan and her absent kin, seeking answers and comfort but to no avail. cautiously featherpaw navigated around her sleeping clanmates and scrambled through the den entrance. a gentle smile spread across her features as the white furred molly took in her surroundings. sunlight filtered through the treetops and streamed down onto her awakened clanmates. bounding through the forest camp, featherpaw flashed smiles towards those nearby as she searched for apprentices to chat to.
