Lost Princes and Princesses, Children of the Mountain.
Far away in the mountains, there lies a wilderness untamed and untouched by man and his vile contraptions. Snowy forests, soaring peaks and rocky slopes. This is the setting for which our story is told.There was once a colony of cats who were ruled by a king and queen. The king, known as Hail, ruled with an iron paw beside his chosen queen, Snow Blossom. He was a strict ruler, who did not tolerate dissent. If you wanted to leave the territory, you had to get past his guards who were stationed at the borders.
Hail's brother, Downpour, didn't agree with the strict and often times cruel laws his brother ruled by. He believed he was too quick to kill and punish. This won him the heart of the queen, who held no love for Hail. They would visit each other every night, until things reached a breaking point.
Hail had ordered the execution of a dissenting soldier, who refused to follow orders to beat a smaller colony in their territory into submission.
Downpour, outraged, single handedly started a rebellion against his brother and with those who followed him, began his own kingdom. The two kingdoms bordered each other, making it easier for Snow Blossom to visit Downpour.
Her outings went unnoticed for a while, before she became noticeably pregnant. Outraged, Hail declared war on his brother, and ordered Snow Blossom and her kits killed. Snow Blossom was forced to flee while heavy with kits and with help from a kind stranger, deliver them.
But she couldn't care for them for long. She was easily recognizable. A wanted woman. With a heavy heart, she and the stranger dispersed the kits to families outside the kingdoms borders, woefully unable to reach Downpour's territory. She now roams the land, alone and broken.
These children grew and eventually left their homes to end up in the Marsh colony, and eventually stayed in Shadowclan. To this day they have had the feeling that they are familiar to each other, but not all of them have made the connection.

1. These characters may or may not know their background depending on who they were left with and if they were willing to tell them the truth. They only know the name of their mother and that she was as white as snow, one of their earliest memories. Snow Blossom spread them across the mountain, but she may have chosen to go lower to the foothills too. She tried to pick kind families, but she didn't have the luxury of time to make sure. More than one kit could have been left with the same parent, so it is possible for them to already know each other if you want to plot with each other.
2. The siblings are 47 moons old now, aging on the 9th of each month.
3. Their activity is at least 10 posts a month! I reserve the right to rehome them if you are inactive for too long!
