About Us
Ravenclan cats are known for being swift. Lots of birds live near the territory, so food is plentiful. They can jump high, which is part of how they catch prey. The founder is Crow, or Crowstar. Ravenclan cats are used to being out in the open, so they're also really stealthy. The apprentices love to have races to determine who is swifter. The kits love to play-fight with each other. We are loyal to our clanmates and value our kits and elders. When a leader dies, the deputy makes the journey to the Shining Pool and receives his/her nine lives.

History
WIP
Introduction
A white paw waves in front of your face. "Hi! I'm Snowstar! Me and Yellowbee found you unconscious on the ground." A male voice says. "Who's Yellowbee, and who are you?" You ask. "You know my name, and I'm leader of Ravenclan. And before you ask, Ravenclan has been destroyed by a wolf attack. The only survivors, me, Yellowbee, and Jaggedpaw were forced to find another territory. I would love to build my beautiful Ravenclan back up again, but three cats cannot do that alone.. We need you to help us." Snowstar said. You awaken, and see a white cat with scars on his back, a small brown tabby, and a yellow cat. "This is Yellowbee and Jaggedpaw." "So, do you wish to join?" Yellowbee said.

The Warrior Code
Defend your clan, even with your life. You may have friendships with cats from other clans, but remain loyal to yours, as one day you may meet them in battle.

Do not hunt or trespass on other clans' territory. You may report something or ask for help.

Elders, queens and kits must be fed before apprentices or warriors. If an apprentice or warrior is sick, they may eat with the elders, queens and kits.

Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to Starclan for its life.

A kit must be at least 6 moons old to become an apprentice.

Newly appointed warriors must sit vigil for one night after receiving their warrior name.

A cat cannot be made deputy without mentoring at least one apprentice.

The deputy will become leader when the leader dies, retires, or is exiled.

After the deputy is exiled, dead or retired, the new deputy must be appointed before moonhigh.

A gathering of all four clans shall be held every full moon during a truce that lasts the whole night. The clans should not fight.

Boundaries must be checked and marked daily. Challenge all trespassing cats.

No cat can neglect a kit in pain or danger, even if the kit is from a different clan.

The word of the Clan leader is the warrior code.

An honorable warrior does not need to kill cats to win his or her battles unless they are outside the warriors or it is necessary.

A warrior rejects the soft life of a kittypet.

RP Rules
Characters~~
~No kits unless there is a queen is expecting kits and they're roleplayer has allowed you to roleplay one of them, or, if your kit was a loner/kittypet/etc, me/sandy and the foster mother's roleplayer agrees.
~All form fields must be filled out except Other.
~You must fill out a form or make your own to join. Do not spam. E.g "I want to join!" "This roleplay sounds cool!" or "Can I join?".
~No Mary Sue/Gary Sue's, or otherwise perfect characters. You can't have 'He is so nice everybody loves him' or 'She is so beautiful all the toms love her' in looks and personality. It is okay to have a very sweet and nice character or a beautiful character, but don't imply that everybody loves him/her because of it.
Violence~~
~You may not brutally injure or kill a cat without they're roleplayer's permission. This includes having a predator attacking someone else's character.
~Do not go into deep detail about brutal injuries. Keep in mind that lots of younger children view this.
~If a fox attacks a kit, the kit dies. If a monster runs over a warrior, the warrior dies. Do not make your character invincible.
Kid Safety~~
~As I said before, many young children view this. Keep this roleplay PG.
~Watch your language. Things like heck, stupid, crap, dumb, etc, are okay. Warrior swears (mouse dung, fox dung) are okay too.
~Any harsh language is not tolerated and will earn you a temporary or even permenant (if severe) ban.
Romance~~
~Romance is fine, but there is a few rules.
~Fade to black when mating or kitting. And do not take details to PM. If you go into detail, congratulations, you earned a ban.
~Don't elevate too quickly. I won't add the cats to the mate list. But if they have a special connection, like one saved another's life, they can fall in love quickly, like a Graystripe and Silverstream thing.
~If your she-cat is too young to have kits, she and/or some of the kits die. If the queen has three kits, 2 of the kits would probably die, and the queen can stay alive if the roleplayer wishes.
~Maximum of 4 kits per litter, and sometimes 5 with my permission. If the roleplay is not accepting because of too many characters, a queen may only have one or 2 kits.
~Be realistic. Your queen can't have the kits right after she finds out she is pregnant, and a queen cannot magically become pregnant. You can make characters starting off pregnant or with kits, but these characters can only have 1 or 2 kits, and you cannot roleplay they're mate or ask someone else to.
Other~~
~Make your posts understandable. I'm not asking for perfect grammar, but really. 'leafclaw jumped off the tree "hi..." she said shyly and looking at the cat' is understandable. 'jmpz 0f tre "h!" s@z shy' is not.
~Be nice! Nobody likes a rude person.
~Please take any fighting to PM with me, sandy, or one of the mods to work it out. Fighting is spam on this thread.
~Speaking of spam, don't do it. This is spam: "Oooh can I join!" "Cool RP." "I'm making my first character!" Marking is fine.
-Don't talk completely OOC (out of character) This is not okay: (I got a new phone) (Cool!) (What kind) This is okay: (I have finals today, wish me luck) *rp post* (Good luck) *rp post* Then the conversation ends and we move on. This is also okay: (My cats are open.) (How about Mossfall and Bunnynose?) (Alright I love forbidden love!) And they start roleplaying.
~Be active. We can't have the kit who's always sleeping or the leader who never comes out of his/her den.
~You can have canon names as long as the characters are not major characters. These characters would be Ferncloud, Dustpelt, etc. Major characters would be Tigerclaw, Fireheart, Bluefur, etc. You can have kit, apprentice, or leader names with the same prefix of major characters, though. (Firestar, Bluestar, etc.)

"This is our hunting grounds in newleaf. Our main prey is birds, but we get mice running around every now and then, along with squirrels living in the trees where we find the birds."


"This is the nursery. It is also a trap for enemies. All Ravenclan cats, especially the kits, are taught how to enter and leave the nursery. If an enemy steps on what looks like just grass, they will fall into the prisoner's burrow, which I'll show you later. The entrance is also made so two kits, 4 small kits, or one adult cat could come in. It is a little hard for adult cats to get in, we value our kits highly."


"This is the elders den. We also value our elders highly because they have once served our clan. They also help take care of our kits by telling stories and watching them. But we don't keep them because of watching the kits. It is well-hidden. All Ravenclan cats know where it is. What the elders need to do is stand on top of the dead tree and leap down. From some places, a cat can see who is on top of the fallen tree, which provides a little protection for the elders."



"This is the warrior's den. It's nothing that special since the warriors can defend themselves. If a warrior sits on top of the den, they can watch some of the clan."



"This is the apprentice's den. It looks really small on the outside, but it is really an underground den. Sometimes enemies think it's just a pile of leaves."


"This is the medicine cat's den. It is slightly hidden because there are sick and injured cats in there, and only two or three cats to fight. The medicine cat and his or her apprentices sleep here. Parsley and dock grows a lot behind this den. We try to plant herbs there, but for most of the herbs we do not know the seeds. Plus, a little poppy can also be found, which produces poppy seeds."


"This is my den. Come here if you need to talk to me. Some catmint grows here."



"Finally, the prisoner's burrow. It's a large underground den, that's how we do the nursery trap. We dug to where the nursery entrance was, and it was not easy. It is dark inside, so I advise not to go in there."

"So you've decided to join? Or do you want to be a loner, rogue, or kittypet? Either way, tell me a bit about yourself!" Snowstar said.

[#Spirit]

"What's your name?"
Honeypaw
"She-cat or tom?"
She-cat
"What is your rank and desired rank?"
His rank is a medicine cat apprentice and he wishes to be a full medicine cat one day
"What do you look like? Yellowbee, stop covering my eyes!"

A very slender cat with a fluffy tail and long, flowing honey-colored fur with amber eyes
"What do you usually act like?"
Very sweet and lovable with a 'big heart,' and she is most always kind to others but if they are from her clan. She doesn't like being offended and is mentally hurt easily. She is playful and good with kits but can get cranky if bothered too much, she loves to hang out around older cats and make new friends. She loves her mentor and looks up to the cats ranking higher than herself most often and always obeys them and listens to Yellowbee. She tends to be very energetic and outgoing but can be considered childish.
"Clan or residence?"
RavenClan
"What's your past like?"
She was born into RavenClan with no siblings, just her mother Swantail and her father Starlingfoot, normal clan life other than the rest: Her parents got into an argument and were no longer mates after a huge fight, Honeypaw's mother continued to care for her as a kit. Her father, Starlingfoot, caught greencough when she was a young apprentice and that turned to blackcough, which couldn't be treated, and he had died by the time Honeypaw had become a medicine cat apprentice. Swantail recently died of poisoning and her daughter is devastated but will move on
"Anything else?"
Nope, not much
