Roles
The roles of your cat are what dictate what your guild is capable of doing! Having certain types of cats will allow you to
participate in different aspects of the game. Do you want to participate in raids, explore the catacombs or make money off
of what you have foraged? It's important to select the roles for your cats wisely in order to participate in the ARPG to the fullest!
There are different types of roles: custom, civilian, combat and misc. You may distribute 10 cats among the different roles, however
you may only have certain numbers of cats that fall under a specific role. When adopting a cat, you must choose roles for them, so choose wisely!

FORAGER
Foragers are capable of finding necessary herbs and materials for creating certain concoctions to be used in combat. They can also find items for the merchant to sell and more.

Misc Roles
RETIRED
Retiring your cat removes all civilian, combat and custom roles and gives them the retired role. They may not participate in the activities of catelena anymore including prompts, foraging, blacksmith, crafting, exploring, the market and the library.
At any point in time, a cat from your guild may be retired to make space for a new cat. There may only be 10 active cats in your guild at once, cats who are retired DO NOT COUNT towards that number. Once you retire a cat, you may not un-retire them unless they are being given away to another guild. A cat must have been in your guild for at least 4 months from the point of being adopted / created before being retired. If you wish to retire your founder, you may make a new founder. You can retire your cat on the registration thread.
