I am so late oh my gosh.
I'll be making my first post soon, but did anything important happen?

[greatwoman]

@Spidr_; Nothing really important has happened yet, everyone is just getting used to each other's characters and getting on with the first day. Only important thing is that the Ashclan medicine cat (Tragican) trespassed on Rippleclan territory, and the Rippleclan border patrol (me , C a s, and Windy0cloud) is currently confronting her. Tragican has been away for a few days, so that part of the story has been slow going xD

[C a s]

@spidr - Not much has happened! I went ahead and tagged Duckflight in a post so that you wouldn't have to worry about both of your characters not having interactions right away, since it seems most have tags. c:

I still have Tawnystrike open in AshClan's camp and Rosethunder out hunting in the forest that are both open! I can send them where they need to go to tag cats if anyone is waiting for interactions. c:

@stormy - I'll add her to the front today or tomorrow, she's good.

@Tragician - no worries, take all the time you need! c:

@Cas; thanks ^^
And would it be okay if somebody did make their kit? I know apprentices are technically closed along with the rest of the clan. They would be 11 moons btw. But if not it's fine, just figured I would ask since she is a belated add-on character.
Or if someone that has a 11/10 moon old cat in Ashclan (other than Nightingalepaw who's her adopted-son) needs a mother that works too

I know I've been away for quite a while, but I should have a post up this week if I'm not feeling like absolute trash
With being in the hospital, that's been taking a lot of my time away from here, but a post is in the making

Hey @C a s or anyone who knows the answer... What's on the other side of Rippleclan's territory? The description says there's a stream along the Ashclan/Rippleclan border, but what about the rest of the territory? Does it open into nothing? Is there a twoleg place or anything? Are there any twoleg landmarks on either territory (like the tree-cut place in the books), or is it completely devoid of twoleg things? What about natural landmarks, like the owl tree or sunningrocks? I guess I'd like a little more info on the territories than what's there so I can build a better mental picture of the landscape

[Animals65]

@greatwoman That is a good question! Imagine if the answer was, "I honestly never thought about it so I pretty much left it anonymous!" LOL!

Great question! I didn't feel the need to write it out and include it on the front, but here's the mental image that I've constructed in my head:

-The marsh is bordered by a road, picture a pretty major highway with guardrails on the side of the swamp. Since MarshClan's old territory is essentially useless, it isn't a big deal for either Clan.
-LeafClan's old territory used to border a Twolegplace, but that - along with quite a bit of the forest - burned to the ground during the fire, so where it is is just ashen rubble. That will be important later on. It's outside of LeafClan's old territory and AshClan's territory is marked where the more damaged part of the forest begins, so cats would have to wonder through quite a bit of burned forest to arrive there.
-The moor kind of just keeps going, if that makes sense! Their territory is marked in a way that it's not covering the entire moor as, well, that would be pretty impossible to patrol and maintain, as the moor is expansive beyond StormClan's old boundaries.

-One of RippleClan's borders is the mountain range. It's steep and craggy, making it nearly impossible to climb - the same crags that make up RippleClan's camp in their little mountain hollow. Birds of prey nest there as well, making it not ideal for any cats to try and scale.
-As you mentioned, the border between the two is the stream, with the fallen log for crossing, which is usually heavily guarded and marked, since it's the main way for cats to cross into the territory, especially if the water is up.
-As a winding stream flows through the territory, a long curve of that makes up the final border! Nothing especially notable lies beyond it, that the cats know of...yet.

Hope that clears things up, not just for you but for everyone! If you couldn't tell, the outside of the territory is widely uninteresting, though there are some points that will become important when the plot really begins. c:

Speaking of, I'm working on this roleplay's omen from StarClan! The main plot is pretty clear - cat tries to dominate the forest, cat is opposed, it will either end good or bad for the cat, in this case being Snowstar!
But, of course - what's a Warriors roleplay without a little intervention from the ancestors? The Clans have already been advised to work together and clearly that hasn't been followed, save RippleClan's brief alliance with LeafClan. Things are about to get interesting!

Thankfully, I'm moved and getting settled, so my activity is about to increase again. Today and tomorrow I'll be replying to roleplays, and will probably be PMing some people as I get the details ironed out for prophecy reasons. I haven't chosen exactly how I want to do roles (first come first serve, picking cats that match the role's needs best, etc) but I will let you guys know as soon as possible.

And @stormy, I promise I'll get your new character on the front soon, I've had very low motivation this week due to packing and finishing out at work. Sorry about that and I'll get to it after I get replies up! And yes, that's fine if somebody wants to make it. c:

I haven't read the roleplay thread yet so I'm sorry if I haven't addressed anything I'll come back and do it if I need to oops

Also - soon we'll be accepting outsiders, so if you have ideas for outsider characters, be cooking them up! Please don't post forms for them yet, though, as I have to get the front ready to handle it lol. Outsider allegiances will probably end up under their own segment of the history/territory post, as I'll be listing them alongside a more detailed version of what I've listed out above.

[greatwoman]

@C a s; Thank you! That is awesome! I have a great picture of the territories in my head now I'm even drawing a physical map, just to keep it straight in my head lol.

Are outsider characters going to be limited in numbers? If so, how are we going to choose who gets to play them? Just first come first served (and can people reserve spots ahead of time?) or are you going to choose some people to play them? Just want to know, cause I'd love to play one, even if it's a minor character haha.

[C a s]

Everyone can make outsiders - I would prefer no one make more than one, though! I definitely encourage everyone to make one, though! Especially since they're important for the prophecy!

Speaking of, I've ironed out the details! There are a total of six roles. Three of them will be hand-picked RippleClan cats for very specific roles, and those users have already been PMd. However, there are three roles left!
Those roles are:
Cat 1 = A kittypet whose home burned in the fire/outsider of some description,
Cat 2 = A kittypet whose home burned in the fire/outsider of some description,
Cat 3 = A Warrior of AshClan formerly from either LeafClan or MarshClan

These three roles will be chosen by poll! Since outsiders must be made, we can start from the bottom and go ahead and poll for the third cat! If no one has any objections, I will go ahead and make a poll of LeafClan and MarshClan cats for the third role, including all of them except for characters owned by those participating via the RippleClan roles.

Please PM me if you plan to make one of the top roles! All outsider characters of those interested will be listed on both polls, so if your character doesn't win the first one, you get a second chance! Obviously, this again excludes cats created by those that already have a role.

I will use this post to track prophecy polls!
Outsider 1 = Auberon
Outsider 2 = Chip
Former Leaf/Marsh Cat = Lavenderrain
Ripple Cat 1 = Cinderdream
Ripple Cat 2 = Foxstrike
Ripple Cat 3 = Willowpaw

After this, I'll make the poll, but please PM me if you do not want your former Marsh/Leaf cat on the poll and would rather wait to try for the outsider roles! And don't feel bad - all outsiders will be relatively important to the prophecy, so don't feel bad if you don't snatch a role! Since there are six, a lot of people will get one this go around - and after we finish phase two of this plotline, there will be another one, and those roles will primarily go to anyone who hasn't participated actively in the prophecy this time around.

I'm gonna wait to make my outsider until I've seen some forms for them, so that I can make someone's kin - please PM me if you plan on making a character that needs kin, I definitely will be making a former kittypet character!
