  This is a troll.
  There will never be a brief summary as you are required to freakin read the responses since you've last posted so that you know what's going on. Don't be lazy :') You're to blame for being absent, silly. And if you don't like reading, why are you here?? I'm hella confused rn. ;w;

  I am currently on the look out for limited staff, since this is becoming a role-play that's too stressful for me to deal with all on my own.

  I'm looking for a max of three people, but in reality two would be just fine. Currently, just moderators would be nice. They would be required to make sure everyone is following the rules, if that wasn't obvious, and that everyone is up to date when posting. A few other details can be worked out in terms of the job, but the catch is that I will come to you if I think you'd be a good addition to staff. One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone randomly begs me for a position.
  I will be more likely to choose someone who is active, reasonably literate and detailed in their posts, with critical thinking skills. Whomever has the skill set I'm looking for, I will ask them if they are interested.

I personally have no problem with you coding up your own character form for your cats~
these are what things that you need to include in your form.


• Ranked Name [Unless you are an Outsider] Ex) Firepaw, Firekit, Firefeather..etc.
  
• A biological gender (Your characters may choose to identify different,
  but due to the 'assigned mates' issue, you must choose a biological gender for them, please.)
• A Rank (PM me if you would like to reserve)
• A form of Appearance for each cat (Can be written or an image)
• A Personality; Some Strengths & Weaknesses
• An Age
• Assigned Mate [I will be announcing those, so for now you should just have an "N/A" or "TBA" in that section]
• Kin - (Kits? Relatives?)
• A History
Optional Info.

• Crush (Optional) Up to you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
• Orientation (Optional) Straight? Bi? We're curious~

I'm having a friend draft up a code for anyone who isn't familiar with forum coding!

► Isis's Tribute
Ancient traditions dictate that the queen must leave an offering for Isis in the temple every new moon to keep the darkness of the night from swallowing up the light of Sunclan. This symbolism is said to keep very ancient spirits away from the clan that were so ancient it is said that they are what plagued the original four clans with such chaos.

► The Assignment of a Mate in holy matrimony
By the will of the gods, to keep order and pure-blood in Sunclan flowing, assigned mates are to be put into place to ensure the reproduction and a secure future for new generations. It is purely to ensure that Sunclan never dies out.

► Customary Normalcy

► Customary Normalcy

• None may look directly upon a Royal's face.
  It is considered to be disrespectful, unless during a called gathering or a social event.
  
• Proper use of formal language is required at a formal event, such as a gathering.
  
• Commoners may not directly speak to a Royal unless given special permission.
  
• It is customary to bow to your peers and elders; higher ranking officials and superiors.
• None may set foot in the temple unless the High Priest or Priestess allows you.
• Priestesses are to never come into physical contact with anyone. They are holy vessels of the gods they've been chosen to serve, and therefore shan't be tainted by any paws- not even a Pharaoh's.
• Do not formally address one's name unless they give you permission.
  
  -Will probably be adding to this list. Ideas are welcome.

➳When the Pharaoh is too old to be fit to rule, he will initiate the Trial of Longknives. The Trial of Longknives is named thus because each trial is a challenge for each of the royal male cats to compete to ultimately win the hand of Isis's Chosen priestess and become the new Pharaoh. The term "Longknives" came from the utterly brutal decisions and gruesome challenges that face the contestants.

xxxxxxRules of the Trial of Longknives:
xxxxxxxxx➳ To compete, you must be a male at the age of 22 to 38 Moons old. Royal blooded males are primly chosen to compete.
xxxxxxxxx➳ There may only be Seven Contestants.
If there are not enough royal bloods competing, then by ancient tradition, then any cat, no matter the rank (depending on how many open slots there are) are given the opportunity to compete.
xxxxxxxxx➳ Isis's Chosen must be a Priestess
xxxxxxxxx➳ If you have failed one challenge, you only have 2 more chances to compete. After failing in a total of three trials, you are eliminated from the competition.
xxxxxxxxx➳ Contestants are not allowed outside combat with each other outside the Trials. If a fight breaks out, they are likely to be disqualified- bringing shame to their houses.
xxxxxxxxx➳ There can only be up to two Victors of each challenge, depending on the trial given. Each loser is released into a bonus challenge. The bonus challenge is a mini-trial chosen by each of the Victors of the Trial that happened previously. The winners of the previous trial are not required to compete in the mini trial they have chosen for the other contestants. Winner of the Mini Trial is given immunity from a strike of failing the previous Trial.

❃ Ｓｔｙｌｅ Ａｎｄ Ｔｏｏｌｓ ❃
Yes, you just read right. I just said style. And just to make sure that you're not tripping over yourself with a billion questions, I'm going to clarify by confirming your suspicions. These cats wear headdresses, necklaces, rings, earrings, and some even bandanas around their necks. To begin with, priestesses wear colored silk scarf veils on their faces to symbolize Isis's beauty and simplicity in humbleness of their looks since half of their features are covered by the silk. They are welcome to wear any jewelry they wish except the catch is that it must match their color of scarf veil. The scarf veil is the color of their house they represent [Ra = Red, Anubis = Purple, Horus = Blue, Osiris = Black, Sekhmet = Orange, Isis = Yellow/Gold/or Green]. The Pharaoh wears the usual crown every Pharaoh does, while the Queen also wears a similar crown if she wishes. The Royal Adviser is traditionally given a jeweled amulet that has been passed down from Royal Adviser to their successors for countless years. The High Priest is given a jeweled collar necklace and as well as a gold ruby ring. The Guards wear gold armored tunics/vests and matching gold wristbands. The captain of the guard wears a slightly more portrayed tunic that is specially fitted to suit his unique style of fighting; he wears gold gauntlets rather than wristbands as well. Fighters wear silver tunics that are similar to the guard's designs as well with matching silver wristbands. High borns wear whatever they wish-
which is usually gold. Semi-high/Respected ranks are usually not so fortunate with gold, but often wear silver. Commoners never usually are able to wear gold, but some are fortunate to have silver belongings. Servants are often reduced to iron or copper belongings.

As for tools, I mean by parchment (for writing) and ink, building tools [for things like sculpting], weaving stations, instruments for Squires to play (or Builders), And I'll come up with a few more things to list as well. I'm going to only list old fashioned things due to the era of the RP, but long story short, they are pretty "modern" in terms of a humanoid sense.
However, I'm not going to add things that a cat couldn't reach;
i.g.) A spinning wheel because that requires to sit like a human and functions that a cat cannot even imaginatively really do/function.

► Common Tools

• Parchment and ink
  
• Clay pottery
  
• Sculpting tools
• Tanning racks (For leather crafting)
• Feather fans (i.g. - fanning a Royal)
• Small amounts of fire (i.g. - Torches; small fires to light the temple)
• Jewelry (of course)
• Silk items
• Frame Loom (For weaving)
• Basic Instruments (within reason, people. No violins...we all know how that'd look..)
  
  - Hmu if I'm missing something obvious.

Mark for later

[Fortune's Fool]

Mmm alright I'm definitely here but I fell asleep last night. This thread can consider itself marked by me, though.
Might end up with a third cat, bc I have an idea for a rogue. Haven't decided yet.

[LucidDreary]

@everyone - As stated, all are welcome to mark. Welcome; I hope you enjoy what I'm about to link (aka the official thread)
It's practically done so I think it's safe to post sooner than I anticipated; but we're still working on quite a few things. I have yet to post the actual thread.

But for now, here's the Test Thread. You are welcome to merk- just no posting on there please!

@Fortune's Fool - I was so lowkey irritated last night tho. Like I get it was gravedigging, but she didn't need to lock it. She could've just posted a warning. but oh well. Now we can be giggly fangirls about our ship cx

Mmmmm, a rouge? No one really seemed interested in any outside cats... so this should be interesting.

[Fortune's Fool]

It was understandable, I suppose, but having the conversation cut off like that was just a bit annoying.

My idea was basically a half-blooded clan cat who ran from the stigma left by his mother, who had a kit with a loner, around apprentice age and was taken in by a rogue who lives not far from the clan's border - she's dead now but he took over her territory.
My main problem is just the idea of not wanting to have to basically roleplay with myself during the possibly common times of there being no way for him to interact with others.

The test thread looks good! {As far as I can tell on mobile anyway, pfft.} Is the jewelry aspect still going to be a thing? :3

[LucidDreary]

@Fortune's Fool - True. It was understandable ig~ It just drives me nuts though because I needed some of the coding from that thread and now I can't grab it ;-; Now I gotta start from scratch. And copy-paste important parts. And die slowly.

I think I'd be pretty fun to be an outside cat curiously hanging around the territory; perhaps he could interact with the scouts that often travel beyond the borders? I'm glad you like the thread! I'm currently working on the territory post, and lastly going to do the Customs post. Gonna be some new things around here but..... H e C k Y e A h - Of course they're still stylin!

[Fortune's Fool]

Ah right the coding. Oh man, good, uh, luck with that friend.

I might toss him in, my poor undersized half-blind baby... Which, probably did not help the stigma he ran from, father a loner and the kit ends up half-blind and a runt. And also sterile as a male calico, but I don't know if the clan would have knowledge of that lil fact. Yike. {He can still kick butt thanks to his adoptive rogue mother working hard to train him to be able to survive on his own though, he's adapted to relying on hearing to cover his blind side.} His name would be Viper, which he inherited from the rogue when she died, with his previous clan name having been Blindpaw.

Aw yes, bling cats. So glad Faded can still have his tragic keepsake.
