ThunderClan Deputy Interest Check
Hello ThunderClan! It's official, Emberstar will be joining StarClan, leaving Howling Wind to lead in her place. After she receives her nine lives and new name, she will be looking to name a deputy. If you would be interested in holding this position, please sign up here! However, before doing so, please read this entire post.
NEED TO KNOW
- Howling Wind will pick a deputy who she can trust and respect. Therefore, a lawful cat is most likely to be chosen over one who breaks rules/shows disrespect. She is very big on responsibility, honor, and loyalty to the clan.
- It is highly unlikely she will ever promote a brand new warrior; oftentimes, they'd need to be a warrior for at least one season (three moons) before being trusted to hold authority in the clan.
- Likewise, due to IC realism it is highly unlikely queens or cats currently staying in the medicine cat's den will be promoted due to the fact she is looking for a cat who can immediately perform their duties. Cats that fall under these categories are still able to show interest and will be considered, but that IC factor is working against them! Permaqueens will never be promoted as they never complete warrior tasks.
- Deputy is in charge of certain IC and OOC tasks. Please be sure to read the Rank Guide to know what is expected of this rank.
- I will be selecting a deputy based on multiple factors:
- Consistent IC activity. One month of ultra high activity is not enough to gauge whether you are capable of maintaining that activity - consistency is always more important than bursts of muse. You will be held to standards of high activity and are at risk of demotion of activity cannot be maintained. Of course, I'm very flexible and will be understanding if there is a reason for a time of inactivity - just let me know!
- Please note that activity taking place prior to this interest check is all that will be considered! I know deputy interest checks can boost activity in the moment, so activity taking place from this day on will not be taken into account.
- OOC activity and friendliness - someone who is present in the discord and is friendly and helpful with all of its members is a must. You will be required to be a familiar, friendly face in the discord. As you will essentially be my right-hand in the clan, I'll be looking to you as a trusted partner for help!
- IC realism - see above for details

- Please know that taking on the role of deputy means that you are signing up for the possibility to lead the clan someday, which is a large undertaking. Of course, it's not required to become leader, as deputies can retire from the role, step down, or even die. But you must know that signing up here does lead to the possibility in case Howling Wind's term ends early, even if I do not plan on it.
I will try to have deputy OOCly selected by the time Howling Wind gets her name and lives. They will be revealed ICly in a meeting. If you are not chosen, don't worry! I will always be on the lookout for lead warriors who follow the same above criteria!
