Reigning from outside the Clans is a small loner group, infamous to passerby's for its strict rules and harsher punishments. A particular feline falls victim to their penalties, saved only by their timely pregnancy - they are granted a grace period until their kits may eat their first prey. Through the grapevine, they hear rumors of nearby groups called 'Clan's, and, as the clock ticks closer to the family's exile, the Queen finds themself banking on these legends for shelter, lest they all fall victim to starvation.

Through word of mouth and directions from strangers, the small family soon finds themselves on SkyClan's doorstep; a thin Queen with three hungry, mewling kittens.. and stars blessed, they are granted a new chapter in their lives.

This story is but a vague outline! It is highly encouraged, but not required, for applicants for the queen to expand on the story by filling in blanks, such as but not limited to:
— The reason for the queen's exile. What kind of crime did they commit? Did they attack another, steal, or perhaps fall in love with an outsider or cat from a rival group? Were they framed, or truly guilty? There are no limits! Feel free to explore the queen's morality as well, and their adjustment to the Clan's codes.
— The rules, customs and traditions of this loner group, and what you would like your character to pass down to their kittens, or perhaps share with curious SkyClanners!
— And more! Go wild, as long as the outline is followed!

GENERAL RULES:
— These slots are not FCFS. There is no set form, but I will ask that basics and family dynamics are included. Choosing dates are subject to change based on demand and the status of the applications closer to the choosing date. I will keep you all updated if this needs to change!
— There are no activity requirements and I will not rehome the slots. I ask that the queen stays in SkyClan until the kittens are at least apprenticed, and that the kits stay alive and in SkyClan until they are apprentices; beyond that, plots such as death, exile, leaving, etc. are allowed and do not need my permission.
— Please follow the genetics listed. Disabilities and birth defects are allowed if they are thoroughly researched and played realistically.
— The loner group is for backstory purposes only and will not appear in roleplay or interact with the Clan. It is assumed that they would not have followed them after their exile, and they may not be used in any Clan related plots. I will allow the queen to adopt out relations from this loner group for the intentions of them joining the Clans, at the risk that they may not be taken in due to their outsider status depending on the leader's policies.

QUEEN RULES:
— The choosing date for the queen will be on (date here).
— There are set genetics for the queen in order to keep the kitten genetics linear. Their appearance (color placement, pattern etc) is up to you as long as it follows the genetics! The queen must be AFAB but there are no restrictions on gender identity, pronouns and sexuality.
— Please include what sort of dynamic you would like with the kittens so that they may adjust their applications accordingly! While there is plenty of room for angst and trauma given their backstory, I'm looking for positive-leaning relationships. Please keep in mind that the queen, despite being forced out of their home, went to great lengths to ensure the safety of their kittens and should not abandon them or treat them intentionally maliciously.

KIT RULES:
— The choosing date for the kits will be one week after the queen's choosing date, on (date here). There are two slots for kits with one reserved for myself, with a slim potential for more if I can't decide between two.
— It is encouraged that you reference the chosen queen's bio for ideas! If more time is needed to adjust bios for multiple people, I may bump back the choosing date.

RELATIONS; ADOPTABLE QUEEN (GEN 1) x NPC FATHER (GEN 1); KITS WILL BE GEN 2

NAMING THEME & IDEAS
The naming theme is loose; you are free to pick a name that is not listed below so long as it is a forest-dwelling creature or plant. Cats from this group named their kits after naturally occurring items in their biome soon after birth, rather than descriptor words (color, size, personality, etc.)
Names may be changed upon joining SkyClan, or later, if you wish. Suffixes may be added at Orangestar's descretion.
— DECIDUOUS PLANTLIFE: oak, maple, beech, elm, hickory, chestnut, magnolia, shrub, moss, laurel, azalea, fern, aster, lily, holly, etc.
— DECIDUOUS ANIMALS: squirrel, rabbit, skunk, wolf, coyote, fox, bear, deer/doe, beaver, racoon, snake, turtle, frog, hawk, cardinal, jay, owl, crow, raven, etc.

• LONERBORN SKYCLAN LITTER
  

  From beyond the Clans, past SkyClan's Twolegplace, resides a rogue group led by an iron-fist tom.. this is where our story begins. Huge and special thank you to Rae for collaborating with me for this as the queen, and for writing the backstory below!

  
  

  ---

  
  Lovage was born to two loving parents insignificantly. Her upbringing had lent her all she knew of the world - a sheltered view, no doubt, but one of starlit wonders and hopes. Her parents lived to an old age and as Lovage grew in her little colony, she never wanted for more than she had.
  
  At some point early into her adulthood, she fell for a tom. Laurel, he was named, and their love flourished beneath open skies. Those in their colony knew of their courtship, and yet still Lovage found herself confronting the fact of her betrothal. Nightshade, the leader of their rogue group, confessed to her in front of all present. And fearing for her life, she reciprocated. She told Laurel that she cannot see him any further, breaking his heart in the meanwhile.
  
  Moons passed and Lovage rekindled her friendship with Laurel, all whilst enjoying her life as Nightshade's mate. She slipped away at night to see her former lover, however unfortunately it seems that she did not do so carefully. Lovage learned of her pregnancy and shortly after did her fellow rogues expose her escapades. Nightshade did not react well.
  
  The rogue leader had Laurel killed in front of the entire colony, Lovage included. Turning on her, he hooked his claws into her eye, marring the flesh around it. He then told Lovage that she would be kept alive until their children are weaned - and only then will she be “set free.” Lovage in all of her moons living in beside Nightshade knew what this meant - a death was coming her way. And there was nothing she could do.
  
  In the interim, Lovage gave birth to a healthy litter and through word of mouth learned of the Clans - large, colony-like groups that fostered love and care for one another. They were just beyond the twoleggedplace - they only had to follow the stars… Lovage made her decision then that in the dead of night, she would escape. She would take her young and leave.
  
  And leave she did. Regretfully Lovage killed her guard and guided young, crying kittens out of their lot of land as quickly as she could. Now, days later she arrives at SkyClan's border, tired and hungry with her children, hoping for some sort of asylum.
  
  

• This is not FCFS. Choosing date is July 20th. This may be extended depending on how many forms are finished closer to the date. Kits will be intro'd at two moons aging realistically every 20th. There is no post quota and casual characters are welcome, but I reserve the right to rehome slots if kits are not played for two consecutive months without notice from the player. Disabilities and birth defects are allowed with adequate research and must be played out appropriately and realistically. Being a casual litter, kits are expected to stay alive and in SkyClan until at least ~mid apprenticehood (9 moons give or take), at which point they may leave, die, etc. if a plot calls for it. Please stick to the naming theme and genetics! The theme is woodland plants and trees; animals and descriptor names (color, size) are not in the loner group's custom. Names not on the list are allowed as long as they follow the theme and are found in TT's regions! Kits may be giving the -kit suffix by their mother after joining SkyClan, and will be expected to have traditional apprentice and warrior names from thereon out. Kittens will know where they came from, and know of their father and the situation they were born into. To combat this, they are taught a sort of dreamy way to perceive the world - that being said, there is room for both angst and positive dynamics (or any other) based on how each kitten grows to perceive their background and their new home! There is no form, but please include the basics and what kind of dynamics you're planning your kit to have with the queen and their siblings!
