SHADOWCLAN MENTOR & APPRENTICE TRACKER -
Welcome to ShadowClan's base of operations for mentors and apprentices! Here, characters will be paired together based on activity level and skill sets, both for backwritten pairings and upcoming ones with each meeting. Once your character has been added to the tracker, you can head over to the Discord to plot things out, or you can wait to be assigned one ICly.
The list below includes all active character pairings, including NPC mentorships. This list will be updated as often as possible, in order to keep things up-to-date.
Make sure to read through all the rules before filling out a form, but otherwise have fun!

RULES
✷ Your character must be on the census before signing up. Falling off and becoming inactive will likely result in your character getting removed from this list — we will always ask however, before reassigning inactive pairings!
✷ IC expectations apply. Newly made warriors must wait one month IRL before being assigned an apprentice, and Ternstar will not double-up unless either extremely low on mentors or she feels a mentor to be experienced enough to handle two apprentices at once. Some mentors may be blacklisted from apprentices (temporarily or permanently) following IC consequences — this will always be something discussed, but please bear in mind Ternstar's leadership rules and expectations!
✷ Please only apply for a played mentorship if you intend to see it through to the end! Short-term plots are allowed but please disclose this somewhere in your form, or with the mentor/apprentice you're assigned to!

MENTORS
SNOWLARK | active (15+)
✷ Snowlark is on the more sterner side of things and will make sure his apprentice stays dutiful while also teaching them respect and hunting as well as ambushing skills
— first time mentor
— currently mentoring Frozenpaw; available to double up
SNEEZEDUCK | casual (10-20)
✷ A careful and calculated mentor, struggling to strike a balance between empathy and tough-love. Like his mentor before him, he will emphasize survival as a priority, using it as a motivation for his apprentice to learn to hunt and fight. Views the relationship between mentor-apprentice as something deep and valuable that nothing else comes close to, and will seek to form a bond with his apprentice, though his love is ultimately conditional; if the apprentice doesn't meet his standards, reminds him a little too much of himself, or behaves irresponsibly, they will quickly earn his ire and a cold shoulder.
— first time mentor
— currently mentoring icypaw; available to double up
SHARPSHADOW | active (15+)
✷ Her first mentor instilled her with a lot of high-pressure, high-expectation trad skewing beliefs that she hasn't shaken off to this day. At times they're a bit at odds with what she'd like to believe, but generally, Shadowclan's environment has reinforced many of these for her over the years. Prioritizes giving his apprentices the tools to survive in what he essentially sees as a death trap of a territory. Makes some amount of effort to be emotionally available to mostly middling levels of success. Expresses his care through actions more than he ever will words.
— experienced mentor
— any apprentices must graduate on or before June 2025
SINGEGLARE | moderate
✷ Singeglare will take to his first apprentice with unbridled enthusiasm! His goal is to mold another little fighter out of the tyke and encourage them to be the best of the best! Still, being a first-time trainer, Singeglare will undeniably trip over himself trying to teach a curriculum he only ever half paid attention to. It doesn't help that he's not the greatest people person and may occasionally butt heads with a youth he isn't prepared to hear talk back or question his motives. Still, Singeglare is never one to back down from a challenge and will do his best to learn alongside his apprentice. For all Singeglare's faults, he'll bestow a powerful sense of loyalty and honor in his apprentice and encourage them through all their shortcomings.
— first time mentor
SHALESTORM | moderate (10-15)
✷ Shalestorm has a very friendly and nurturing approach to mentoring, she isn't overly tough on apprentices and she enjoys teaching through play, especially with brand new apprentices, as younger cats seem more inclined to respond positively to play. She wants her apprentice to view her not only as a mentor, but as a friend, someone who they can come to if they find themselves in trouble or if they've done something wrong.
✷ Though not the strictest mentor, Shalestorm isn't against a tough lesson or two, though she prefers to do double training if something might require a 'bad cop' to her 'good cop'. She's soft, but not a pushover, and quite stubborn! You don't want to do this hunting lesson? That's fine, but we're gonna sit here until you catch something even if it takes three days. Or you can go ahead and check all the elders for ticks, your choice!
— has trained one apprentice
— open to doubling up only as a last resort
✷ STONESTRIKE | casual
✷ Strict and militaristic. He's not going to be mean necessarily but to a new apprentice he may come off that way. He wants to give his apprentice the mentoring he craved, whether that is the correct choice I suppose is up to whoever becomes his apprentice. He will obviously teach hunting and tracking etc, but will be highly focused on battle training, as that is his specialty.
— first time mentor
— currently unavailable due to illness
APPRENTICES
SILENTKIT | active
✷ Depending on who mentors him will determine his outcome. Someone patient and kind would help him come out of his shell and actually start to trust shadowclan. If he's given someone strict or mean he would turn more inside and be more sure of his belief that shadowclan plans on killing the pack. I am down for either option and can be discussed. I have 0 preference for either and am just here for the ride! He's going to be a difficult apprentice, especially starting out because he does not trust shadowclan right now and he is not really speaking either. So whoever he's paired with OOC should probably know about that and be willing to put up with him/me :' )
— high activity mentor preferred
— apprenticed at May meeting
-
BONEPAW | temporary ban
— Stripped of warrior name and duties for losing Mercykit. Likely on probation for 2+ moons after being allowed to return to warrior duties.
SWALLOWFLUTTER | temporary ban
— Generally untrustworthy, has shown a penchant for violence towards her age mates and rebelion towards HP's. May be revised based on future behavior.
