DON'T FORGET TO READ THE RULEBOOK!
7.14.16 // Congratulations to Rabbitclaw for his promotion to ShadowClan deputy! Also, don't forget to post in the Activity Check!
6.15.16 // A bunch of lovely cosmetic updates to the site have been made (just look at those snazzy side-tables) and the WC has been lowered, for practical reasons, to 150. We also would love to welcome Stormhawk (void) as WindClan's new deputy!

5.25.16 // A big ol' CONGRATS to Cuckoopoppy, ShadowClan's medicine cat! He's a scruffy old fellow who sees a few more omens then normal (and perhaps a few curses) but I'm sure we'll all love him and his antics! Reminder that the SC and WC deputy positions are still available for audition!
5.15.16 // The May activity check has come to a close! A big thank you to everyone who participated! Unfortunately, the ShadowClan medicine cat rank is now open as well. The deadline for this rank, and the others available, is indefinite- so if you want it, go for it!

She didn't like the idea of replacing her past deputy. He'd been loyal to her for moons, following in her pawsteps and her beliefs. A deputy she could trust, lean on, and consult in times of trouble. But yet, Martin had disappeared moons ago. He'd gone for a walk, according to his mate, and simply hadn't returned. The thought of it made her skin crawl, the images of what could have happened to the tom plaguing her constantly. She liked to think some Twoleg picked him up, or he found happiness with a group outside of ShadowClan, but it was unlikely. Odds were, her loved deputy was dead. These thoughts were what plagued her as the leader sat on the rotted stump in the middle of her camp. She had to chose a new deputy, and now she had just the cat in mind. As much as her stomach flipped and her gut churned, she stood and cleared her throat. Guh, it would help if she just... knew, knew what had happened. What if he came back? What if, what if... "Let all cats old enough to chase frogs through the marsh, gather here to hear my words!"Her voice carried easily, and she knew from experience it would reach every den, past the entrance of camp. It was evening, the sun setting- silverpelt just beginning to appear overhead. She could have StarClan as her witness. MADE BY VEL OF GS

THE FLASH OF THE NEON LIGHT THAT SPLIT THE NIGHT
Mapleblaze's hulking form had been draped along the cool earth near the very edge of ShadowClan's home domain. Leafy ferns and sharp, stabbing thistles tangled over his head ad body, offering lovely shelter to the tom whose thick fur heated easily even in the leaffall sun. He'd been rasping his long, rough tongue over the smooth but knotted fur of one fore-leg when a familiar and aged voice reached his ears. He lifted his head, bleary eyes blinking to clear away the remnants of his lethargic late-day lounging nap and his ears pricked forward to net the sound. A meeting? What could it be for?
He pushed himself to massive paws and subserviently trotted forward, placing his form beneath the rotting stump that formed his clan's daily meeting place. He craned his head back, soft orbs of yellow color gazing up at the striped leader before him with a mix of curiosity and wonder.
Perhaps, he thought, an apprentice was soon to graduate? Though he did not believe Copperpaw was ready for such a step, it could explain the meeting. Perhaps she had concerns regarding their neighbors, or perhaps she was there to announce their next deputy. The thought of that captured and held his attention as the large, heavily framed tom sat and waited for his clan-mates to gather around him.

let all who chase frogs Moleshade, drowsing in his comfry nest, was disgusted to hear a meeting call. Why was it he was always interrupted right when he was about ready to sleep? One eye cracked open to stare blankly into space, followed by the second, and then his jaw as a monstrous yawn escaped him. Ugh.
Sluggishly the tom pushed himself to his paws. He didn't care about the moss and feathers sticking to his fur, the tom didn't give himself so much as a lick or a wiggle. Whatever this meeting was, he hoped it was quick, otherwise he wasn't sure if he could sit through it without nodding off. He'd been on patrols most of the day, missing the /best/ lounging hours, and he wasn't about to be kept up only to be woke up for dawn patrol. No no- and he suspected that was some sort of plan. Boarstar had planned this, definitely, just to inconvenience him.
Not really, but he liked to bitterly think so as he dragged himself over and plopped down near the very edge of the crowd, bleary eyes fixed upwards with little focus, ears swiveling. Then his eyes just drooped shut, and he decided to simply listen instead of watch. With everycat mumuring and coming to sit, he doubted he'd fall asleep just yet. He wasn't that exhausted.

Let all who chase frogs
The familiar voice called Sableface from her guard-duty near the entrance of the camp, the molly's attention grudgingly pulling from the shadowed tunnel entrance towards the jutting, rotted center of camp. Already she could see some distasteful figures gathering there, and her nose wrinkled back. What was it now? A warrior ceremony? Maybe Moleshade was finally retiring.
With a huff she rose to her paws and shook herself out, scattering bits of moss and dirt from her lovely, silky pelt. She padded forward towards the rotted stump and settled down on the opposite end of the crowd. She tried to avoid the bulky tom completely, side-eyeing him as her hackles raised, but Sableface wasn't about to pick a fight. Not under her leader's eyes, during a speech.
Instead she turned her lovely eyes upwards, towards Boarstar's star-silhouetted form, curiosity tinting her gaze and causing her whiskers to quiver. Perhaps some kitten was ready, or an apprentice could be transferred to her care. She was excited at the thought.

Dapplecrow had returned from a dusk hunting patrol only moments earlier. She stood a few fox-lengths from the fresh kill pile, having been heading for the warrior's den, but Boarstar's voice stopped her in her tracks. The stout calico peered back towards the rotted log, her eyes finally settling on the burly she-cat's body, then lowered to the gathering cats below the trunk. She spotted Sableface sitting amongst them, Moleshade as well. Well, she knew where she was sitting. Hopping over she placed herself firmly at her ex-mentor's side, gazing up with wide eyes at her leader. She assumed the others were thinking the same thing she was, wondering what the meeting could be for. It was a curious thing, that was for sure! For a moment she broke her eyes away from the leader to eye her other friend, she couldn't help but notice the tuxedo's fluffed long fur. It wasn't too hard to guess the reason why, honestly- but she didn't linger on it and quickly looked up at Boarstar again. MADE BY VEL OF GS

After their little… scuffle in the ferns with Mapleblaze she had been stuck on elder duty for a full sun. It wasn’t fair in the least, in her opinion but she suspected that the big badger-face had embellished his story to Boarstar. She wasn’t willing to admit her own fault, not yet at least. By now her paws ached from clawing away moss, fetching them food, and helping with their ticks. Gross! If she had to itch one more dirty, moldy butt she’d go absolutely bonkers. Thankfully, Boarstar’s clear voice rang through the clearing and, essentially, relieved her of her punishment –at least for a moment. She made an extra effort to walk far around Mapleblaze, avoiding him like the plague, before settling down near Sableface and her crew. Copperpaw had a point to make, and just about everyone in ShadowClan knew that there was some sort of ugly rift between him and the pretty she-cat. If he was going to act like a mange-pelt he should be quarantined to his own side of camp. It was petty, but the young she-cat loved to antagonize those who got under her fur. @everyoneever x 211 words x poor me [attr="class","cred"]MADE BY VEL OF WW + GS[newclass=.bsmain]width:400px;background-color:#fbfbfb;padding:20px;border:solid 1px #eee;[/newclass] [newclass=.bsimg]width:400px;background:url('http://i.imgur.com/q9YGMzU.png');height:200px;border-bottom:solid #333 10px;[/newclass] [newclass=.bslyric]font-size:20px;color:#333;font-family:georgia;text-transform:uppercase;text-align:left;padding:10px;line-height:30px;[/newclass] [newclass=.bslmarg]margin-top:71px;[/newclass] [newclass=.bslmarg span]font-size:38px;[/newclass] [newclass=.bsltmarg]margin-top:-5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.bsbody]font-size:10px;color:#333;font-family:verdana;text-align:justify;padding:20px;line-height:20px;[/newclass] [newclass=.bsbody span]font-size:9px;text-align:center;line-height:20px;opacity:0.9;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred]text-align:center;font-size:6pt;color:rgb(132, 132, 132);letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;margin-top:5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred a]color:rgb(132, 132, 132);font-size:6pt;letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass]

[attr="class","unstoppable"] [attr="class","unstoplyrics"]I am the ugly in every man And I am a victim of circumstance And I am another animal When I'm locked and loaded I'm Unstoppable [attr="class","unstopbody"]The light of a thousand suns shimmered in the recesses of the ebon-hued masculine apprentice's orbs. Ravenpaw was resplendent in his shadow cloak and would only grow more as the summers passed beneath his handsome paws. But more importantly the devout son's visit whit his diseased and estranged mother had gone smoothly. Bathed in the dying light of the sun's last moments the dark-tinted tom-cat removed himself from the healer's sanctuary, where his mother resided in her incurable illness, and withdrew into the camp's main clearing. There his sister had taken rest upon a precariously chosen side of apparently warring clanmates. He had no quarrel with the respectable Mapleblaze. But the call of kinship was far greater and so by her side did he choose to reside. "Sister, what may I ask is unfolding before us?" The black cat snaked his tail to tap the maiden's shoulder and then point at their glorious leader. Had it come time to announce their new deputy? For long they had without sign of their previous. Their rivals would surely see thus a frail image of Shadowclan as an undesirable result.

Post by rabbitclaw on Jul 1, 2016 21:32:07 GMT -6
let all who chase frogs Rabbitclaw had been settled by himself, alone under a patch of thorns, one of the many spiny plants that ringed the camp. His eyes had latched onto the burly form of their leader when she first made her appearance, the sparrow between his paws mostly just picked at. He couldn't imagine it was very easy on her, but as he watched the she-cat make her way up onto the rotted stump, his mind swirled with questions.
Was this about Copperpaw? Had Mapleblaze made more of a fuss? Was he in trouble? Was there trouble with the other clans? With the gathering news? The Alliance?
His whiskers gave an anxious quiver as he slowly stood. As he made his way across the shadowed clearing, his eyes flicked up for a moment, catching a glimpse of the very first stars of silverpelt making their way into the sky. He nearly bumped into the massive tom-cat, sucking in a breath as he lightly hopped to the side.
Crisis averted.
Instead he found Copperpaw and her brother seated amongst Moleshade's clique. He turned his paws their way and quickly took a seat on his apprentice's free side, uttering a hushed chirp as he loafed over his paws. His broad ears were focused ahead, awaiting his leader's announcement.

Slowly her cats gathered, a river of pelts dripping and flowing from their dens and patrols- all pooling in the hollow before her. The familiar and welcomed sense of humility, of self-awareness, flooded the leader and joined her mixed grief and exhaustion as she looked out over the cats. Each one was familiar, a warrior she'd watched grow, or grow alongside. These meetings would never stop being eventful. At least, not for her. Deep breath, chin up, she was ni the spotlight now. "I say these words before StarClan, so the spirits of our warrior ancestors may hear and approve of my choice."Pause, exhale- her eyes drifted upwards towards the glittering silverpelt, then down at ShadowClan. Apprehension, uncertainty, hesitance- they gnawed at her gut like hungry rats at crowfood, trying to claw up her throat to hold her tongue, but the aged leader swallowed them down as she continued. "The new deputy of ShadowClan is Rabbitclaw."If this was up to debate, Boarstar gave no sign of it. She dipped her head towards the silken-brown tom in a form of respect, and turned to hobble down off the stump. Her tail twitched and the leader made a quick getaway back to her den.

THE FLASH OF THE NEON LIGHT THAT SPLIT THE NIGHT
As he sat there, his brutish shape hunched over in a muscular arch, awaiting the arrival of his brethren from the vegetation around him, Mapleblaze couldn't help but notice that the majority of his clanmates were flowing around him, choosing to sit as far from him as possible. He felt a pang of disappointment, not that they wouldn't gift him their company, but rather at the chest-tightening disrespect shown by his own comrades and companions. You'd think they'd all have more then just blatant dislike for such a senior warrior.
His burning gaze returned to the aged and burly form of his respected leader as her voice rang out again, and a chilling shiver ran down his spine when he realized what this ceremony was about. This was followed by an electric jolt of excitement that put his shaggy, forest-hued pelt on end. Finally the next deputy would be announced, and the chain of command would be linked again.
But this excitement turned to shock and dismay when the cat was announced. His broad head snapped to the side and his eyes narrowed to hateful slits at the tom named. Him?! Him?? Some uneducated, inexperienced, disrespectful cat, with kittypet descent, no less?! He scoffed and stood with a stomp of his massive paws.
"I, for one, won't stand for this." Mapleblaze announced to the gathered cats with a touch of a snarl dripping from his animosity laced tone. His tail gave a couple quick jerks and he turned to stalk off, thick legs carrying him quickly towards the warrior's den.
