rules
please fill out everything on the form, including personality and history. do not "will roleplay out" or "normal life," they are there for a reason and ARE NOT optional.
---
that being said, when roleplaying, use grammar and complete sentences. it's fine if you speak in lowercase when in OOC (out of character) but please refrain when doing so in actual roleplay.
---
be reasonable. your oc can be silly, but not so silly that they dance around with a tutu.
---
don't cause unnecessary drama.
---
don't cause a huge event out of nowhere. furthermore, do not roleplay as something other than a cat. that means no mountain lions or anything else of the sort.
---
please post two or more sentences. for example:

Exampleface
The warrior yawned, blinking as he scanned the camp over. Lazily, he stood up, stretching. He had things he needed to do, of course. Maybe he'd go hunting?

this is okay. it's more than two sentences.

Exampleface
He padded through the forest, keeping his ears and eyes open for any prey that may cross his path. As he heard a slight shuffling, he unsheathed his claws, not sure what lurked behind the ferns, he called out, "Who's there?"

this is also acceptable.

Genericallyevil
"It's me."

not okay. it's small, not two sentences, and doesn't give them much to reply to. if i told the rp-er for Genericallyevil that they have to put more than a sentence, and they do this:

Genericallyevil
"It's me," she said. Padding through the bushes.

that's also not okay. you're simply breaking up a sentence, and that breaks rule two.
if they were to do this:

Genericallyevil
"It's me," she said, padding through the bushes. Twigs snapped underneath her paws as her amber eyes bored into Exampleface's. "Are you surprised?"

this breaks rule four, but, at the very least, it's something to reply to. just use good judgement, and we should be fine.

the camp
IvyClan is located deep in the forests, where little to no Twolegs go.
They have a large fallen tree that has since been hollowed out; this is the Leader's Den.
Beside this tree is a large tree. Branches poke out of it, which are used as steps for one to walk on. This is Talltree.
Underneath Talltree is the Medicine Cat's Den. It's protected by both trees, and is a burrow dug into the ground. There is the slim chance of a cave-in, however, they happen rarely. It was made underground so herbs found in one season will not freeze in another season when it's needed. It keeps a much more consistent temperature than the rest of the camp.
On the other side of camp is the Warrior's Den. It's made of brambles and stone, and, although it may be a bit sturdier than the medicine cat's den, it does get rather cold in Leafbare. The rock was from a boulder that has since succumbed to nature and weathering. It may split one day.
Beside the warriors' den is the Apprentices' Den. It's made of the same materials as the warriors' den, although much smaller. This can be rather uncomfortable when there are many apprentices.
Near the far end of camp is the Nursery. Burrowed underground, it's one of MagiClan's most treasured places, and definitely the best guarded.
Above the nursery is the Elder's Den. It's another tree that has fallen down, hollowed. It's somewhat colder in there, due to being in the shade.
---
other things
There is a creek that runs through the forest. Many cats wishing to confess their love to another cat come here, as there is a myth that states on a half-moon, a cat confessing their love underneath the glow of the moon will always be accepted. Of course, it's only a myth. Other than that, this is a popular fishing spot for those who like trying their luck.
There is a clearing in the forest where many mentors train their apprentices. The ground is soft and leafy so a reckless apprentice won't hurt themselves.

╔═════════════════╗
Windstar
Tom|56 moons|Heterosexual
╚═════════════════╝
---
the basics
name.] Windstar
age.] 56 moons
gender.] Tom
appearance.] dark grey tabby tom with amber eyes
rank.] Leader
---
on the inside
personality.] Windstar, upon first glance, appears to be a very stoic, no-nonsense tom. He is very stern, and speaks rather bluntly. He rejects all signs of friendship or love. It appears that all he wants to do is be left alone, but, in reality, he just keeps the facade to try and seem strong for his clan.
strengths.] He is loyal, level-headed, and calm.
flaws.] He rejects all signs of affection and often speaks before he thinks.
fear.] Not being good enough.
---
digging deep
history.] Windstar, as a kit, was the runt of the litter. He was overshadowed by his older brother, Badgerkit. His father, the leader, at the time, told him he'd never be good enough, that he was useless, and other things of that caliber. Windstar, then Windkit, pretended not to care. He pushed through it all, keeping up the stony facade in hopes that, maybe, one day he'd wake up and he truly wouldn't care. Alas, it didn't work that way. As an apprentice, Windstar fell head-over-heels for a pretty she-at by the name of Amberpaw. However, Amberpaw had a crush on Badgerpaw. As a warrior by the name of Windstripe, he could only watch as Ambershade and Badgercry became mates, and, soon, kits. One day, Badgercry didn't return from the border patrol. It was the day before his kits were due. Ambershade was distraught, knowing her kits wouldn't grow up with a father. She soon turned to Windstripe to help her raise them. Knowing this was the closest he would ever get to kits of his own, he agreed. Sandkit was the only kit in the litter. Windstripe spoiled her, as he didn't want the closest thing to his own kit growing up without a father figure. As Poppypetal retired from deputy, Shardstar decided to give Windstripe one chance as deputy. He wouldn't regret it. As Shardstar fell to greencough, Windstripe became Windstar. He knew he had to be the best. He had to.
crush.] N/A
sexuality.] Heterosexual
kin.] Badgercry (brother, deceased)
father.] Shardstar (deceased)
mother.] Fernblaze (deceased)
mate.] N/A
kits.] Sandbreeze (adopted daughter)

Sandbreeze
She-cat|24 moons|Bisexual
╚═════════════════╝
---
the basics
name.] Sandbreeze
age.] 24 moons
gender.] She-cat
appearance.] pale ginger she-cat with soft green eyes
rank.] Warrior
---
on the inside
personality.] Much like her father, Sandbreeze is quite cocky and arrogant. She enjoys rubbing her success in the faces of others, much to their annoyance. However, she can be somewhat reserved at times, but only when she sees fit, which is almost never. She loves teasing people, sometimes using it to hide the hole her mother's death left in her.
strengths.] She is sneaky and somewhat intelligent.
flaws.] She is very, very arrogant and has a big mouth.
fear.] Losing everyone she loves.
---
digging deep
history.] She was Ambershade's only kit, and was raised by Ambershade and Windstar. She isn't aware that Windstar isn't her real father. There was one day that her mother and Windstar went out hunting as she slept. When she awoke, Windstar had lost a life in a tree fall, while her mother... Didn't make it. She became much more sly and cocky after that to mask her pain, as she had picked up a trait from her uncle; never show weakness.
crush.] N/A (PM me)
sexuality.] Bisexual
father.] Badgercry (deceased)
mother.] Ambershade (deceased)
mate.] N/A
kits.] N/A

Echopaw
She-cat|8 moons|She-cat
╚═════════════════╝
---
the basics
name.] Echopaw
age.] 8 moons
gender.] She-cat
appearance.] pale silver tabby she-cat with bright blue eyes
rank.] Apprentice
---
on the inside
personality.] If one sees Echopaw, they see a blank slate of cat who shows nothing. They see what appears to be a husk, a shell. Echopaw tends to do this, as she's very, very nervous and she is quite hard on herself. She speaks very little, but, when she does, it's always quiet. Echopaw may just want a friend to confide everything into, but, alas, she hasn't found one yet. It's quite hard for her to make friends, being so quiet and shy.
strengths.] Thoughtful, thinks before she speaks.
flaws.] Shy and jumpy, very hard on herself herself.
fear.] Being replaced.
---
digging deep
history.] Echopaw was born to a rogue and a clan cat, but was raised by the rogue. She knew nothing of her clan-cat descent, all she knew of was the strange name she was given. Echokit. It seemed strange, foreign. As she grew up on the streets, she knew that there wasn't much to trust. That there weren't many to know. She had to kill or end up being killed herself. She couldn't bring herself to do it. Her mother, who knew of this, decided to bring her back to her father in the clans. It was for the best, she told herself. Since the age of four moons, she's lived in this clan. She might actually adjust to it all, but, even then, the horrific sights she saw may stick with her forever.
crush.] N/A (PM me)
sexuality.] Homosexual
father.] Creekgaze (deceased)
mother.] Fang
mate.] N/A
kits.] N/A
