beyond the jagged peaks of the mountain formations, a group of cats
has settled down enough to call the harsh weathers and treacherous
environment their home. yes, for just like their surroundings, they are
tough enough to withstand the piercing cold and protect themselves
from the dangerous predators of the mountain. For these cats aren't
just a group, they're a working unit, a brigade of fierce soldiers.

They're Duskclan.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

the territory of duskclan is both rugged and beautiful, a mix a harshness
and grace. The meek do not survive these parts, where the eagles tower
over the skies and the badgers and foxes stalk the ground. the eldest
pine trees stick out through the rocky grounds, priding themselves to the
northern air that flows crisply. the duskclan territory is untouched by man,
a living example of just how stunning and captivating it truly is when it's
given the freedom to bloom and grow, to let it touch every boulder and
crevice of the mountain. a waterfall reaches at one point in the clan
territory, just bordering the north borders. Around there is most dangerous,
for there is sharp drops and jagged rocks that are easy to slip on. Cats
aren't allowed there unless stated otherwise by the leader themself.

ＴＹＰＩＣＡＬ ＬＯＯＫＳ
typically, cats of duskclan are of black, grey and white pelts. though it isn't a standard,
it is better when trying to hide from a predator in the rocks or even in the snow when
it's winter. nonetheless, cats of different colours like calico aren't as common, yet most
certainly not unheard of. when it comes to pelt markings, bengal rosettes, ticked, mackerel
and tabby markings are common aswell as black smoke cats. Markings in general are quite
common, aswell as longhair in the cats. An unusual thing about the clan cats is that they
are all webbed-footed.

ＡＰＰＲＥＮＴＩＣＥ ＴＲＡＩＮＩＮＧ

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

since the clan was made by a fierce former rouge, it seems fitting that the necessary training skills are fighting and defence. The clan main trait is their fierce training for battling, and even the cats that are timid and kind have deadly fighting talents. Other training features are popular in the clan, like fishing and climbing.

[ fighting. ]
fighting is something duskclan as a whole excels in. They're trained
to attack like a military force and as powerful as a army. The cats
know how to fight well, and fight ruthlessly at that.

[ defence. ]
defence seems to go hand in hand with fighting, as it takes more
than just hissing and sharpened claws to win a battle. Defence
is also necessary to become a warrior.

[ fishing. ]
since a large portion of the clan's prey pile is some type of fish,
it seems fitting that they learn how to. It's pretty common, though
not all apprentices will learn it.

[ climbing. ]
climbing is something used for clambering up steep rocks and trees
when hunting after the pesky hawks and their chicks. Climbing
is dangerous since there is always a possibility of cats falling, but
it is also a good one to learn.

[ tracking. ]
tracking is good for cats with excellent sniffing and, well, tracking.
These cats can find other cats or prey, which is helpful in times of
starvation or attack.

[ hunting. ]
this one is rather obvious, though it doesn't necessarily have to be
taught, as some cats have a natural knack for it and don't really
need tons and tons of sessions training for it.

* these are only some that the cats may have *
