STORMCLAN
AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE OF NATURE
What is Stormclan?
Stormclan is a place to start over. Home to unjustified exiles, the lost and abandoned, and those just looking for a bit of purpose or safety in an otherwise dangerous world, it's a clan that welcomes anyone whose willing to live by it's rules. The cats here are considered clever and tough, highly resourceful and fiercely loyal to one another. They don't care where you've come from as long as you know the value of respect and comradery- even kittypets are permitted to join, so long as they're willing to leave behind their soft life.
How do they work?
Stormclan functions very similar to your traditional clan; they go on patrols to keep their territory free from predators and trespassers, they hunt together to make sure every mouth gets fed, and they pass down the skills necessary to survive to their young. Stormclan cats reject the soft life of a kittypet and they protect what they consider 'theirs' with undisputable ferocity.
More on the territory and camp setup?
Stormclan can be found a short distance away from twoleg place, out in the Loner lands. They reside in a long forgotten cemetery whose gravestones are worn with time, covered in moss and often cracking or tipped over. It sounds rather glum at first, but the grassy meadows and sparsely dotted trees make for an ideal, charming landscape with a great view of the sky, and the graves make excellent climbing gear for playful kits. Their camp is within an old stone church on the center of the property.
Rabbits, mice, birds, voles, and squirrels are common prey items here. Predators include foxes, coyotes, hawks, owls. Non predatory animals include deer, porcupine, groundhog, and skunks.
What about the Ranking system?
Stormclan will mostly follow the same ranking system as the trad clans. There will be kits, elders, queens, warriors, and senior warriors, but when it comes to the leadership role that's when things switch up a bit. Coldsnaps seen too many things go wrong by allowing a single cat to rule a group. Therefor, Stormclan does not technically have a leader. Instead, what they have is a Council. Three cats that are trusted and respected by the community are voted into the role, and they're in charge of managing the group- handling patrols, voting on decisions, and essentially sharing the role of leader without assigning any one cat the power. The clan has the power to vito decisions if the majority disagrees with what the Council decides, otherwise their decisions are final. When a council member dies or retires then Stormclan casts votes on the cat to take their place.
OOC INFO AND CLARIFICATIONS
Okay! So this is essentially going to be a clan that's formed by my character, Coldsnap, in an attempt to bring some familiarity back to his life. He's an ex-windclan cat who was exiled alongside his future mate, Coalfoot, for helping Dandelionwish escape execution. Unable to join any of the current clans and finding that his morals don't align with those of the current loner groups, he's going to set out to basically create a clan that gives lost/abaoned/exiled cats like himself a second chance at leading a normal life.
To clarify, Stormclan is not an official group, and therefor it and it's members will not be involved with the main five clans in any way. We will not be partaking in their plots, we will not be attending gatherings, and your cat may not know what Starclan is unless they were told about it by a member of the clans. We will be able to plot with the other fanclans though (with staffs approval), and are allowed to host smaller, unnoficial events and plots that are contained to our groups. Fanclans are considered 'background' rps, sort of like sidestorys that aren't associated with the main roleplay or it's plots, despite sharing the same world/universe.
