Based off the Classic Story about four clans that live together in the forest under Starclan's paws, these four clans: Rockclan, Leafclan, Cloudclan, and Willowclan had been peaceful for centuries, following the Warriorcode and fighting any threats in their territory but alas, nothing serious. Nothing serious until a leader from (Clan name) was shown a prophecy where a Fox was holding a branch in it's mouth, with his shadow stretching beyond the star, fighting multiply cats which their identity was hidden in the darkness. The leader believes that there is someone coming into the clans that will someday save them from a powerful enemy, along with these words from Starclan: "Three will come. A Fox, a Branch, and a Shadow. With a purpose to save our clans, and our wellbeing."
Three Cats: two are Kittypets and one a Rogue, they have been best friends for who knows how long. Shadow has been a motherfigure to Nate and Brandy. Shadow is 4 moons older than Nate, and 11 moons than brandy. Ever since Brandy's Mother passed away, she has been looking after them since. But when she saves a kit from being a Hawk's meal, the three of them will take it back to the 'forest cats' and soon discover a new life before them. Being skeptic about these 'clan's' lifestyle, she joins just to make sure her two friends will be alright. But their presence will not only bring their old past that will leave (Clan Name) to a brink of extinction. They will also discover their true purpose, and Shadow will discover that she is not 'truly' alone in this world.

WillowClan
They are elegant, regal almost, and very noble and brave, but not always realistic. They tend to think beyond the mortal bounds. But, at least, they can be rather fun to be around; they often have great stories to tell, and can make up lies for/exaggerate just about anything to make it quite believable. They are quite easy-going cats, with smart remarks/jokes, and witty comments. Don't let their friendly nature fool you! They can be quite devious when they have to be.
CloudClan
Unlike what their name suggests, these cats aren't all soft and lovey-dovey. They are often harsh or firm, but very sophisticated. They work well in special groups (such as; someone who is fast and smart would be paird with someone who is very strong and stupid, to balence it out), and are good with battle strategies. This Clan tends to be detached from other Clans, never really communicated. When they do speak to a cat from another Clan, they seem aloof, disinterested and such...As if they'd rather be taking a nap than listening to you babble. They are often very proud, to the point where they would die rather then tell you they have a problem.
RockClan
They are sturdy, strong, loyal, and logical. Like CloudClan, they won't listen to senseless blabber, and aren't as mushy or blithe as WillowClan; but will lend a helpful paw. They may not show it, but they tend to be big softies on the inside. They know compassion, but show it in different ways. Little is known about them, because they generally aren't very talkative. Maybe within their own Clan they are vivid and vibrant, but during Clan gatherings, they don't say more than they have to. As in, if someone asked how their Clan was doing and they were in a little pinch (or very well off), they'd say; "It could be better, but it could also be worse." These sturdy cats do not break under pressure; it would be very difficult to interrogate one from this Clan. They can easily shoulder problems on their own, and do not generally ask for help unless they seriously need it. They are not too proud to ask for help, but are not too keen on letting others know about their distress either.
LeafClan
They are intelligent, and creative. They adapt easily to their surroundings, and learn very quickly. It is said that they begin training at three moons, instead of six...Which can sometimes result in some obvious problems. While they are creative, they are still logical. They know where to draw the line, and they know how they'd feel about almost any topic you wish to discuss with them. Also, they seem to have the most varied species of cats; some really tall, some very short, some long and skinny, and some fat...Some are red, some are blue, there are so many colors, I can't name them all to you!

Exceptions■Cats on their way to the Half-moon pond or the Stone Falls are allowed to cross other Clans' territories to get to their destination so long as they keep within a certain, agreed length of the borders. Additional RulesThe following rules are not specifically stated in the Warrior Code, but are expected to be followed: ■Medicine cats may not have a mate or kits. ■Kits must stay in camp until they are apprenticed, and are not allowed to hunt. ■The safety of the Clan is more important than the safety of one cat. ■Clans must not unite together to drive out another Clan. ■Clans must not force another Clan to share territory. ■Enemy patrols must not attack cats if they are returning from a mission all four Clans agree on.

Need help on ages?
This is in moons. Moons = months.0--5 moons = kit.6--11 or 13 (depending on how long their training is needed) = apprentice.12--89 moons= warriors/leaders/deputies/etc. (leaders tend to live a lot longer than regular cats, aging very slowly, due to their nine lives). 90--120 = seinor warriors. (tend to be a lead warrior that aids the deputy in many things, sometimes even advises the leader in rough/hard situations/decisions. A lead warrior will often take the role of deputy if the leader is absent, dead, or if the deputy is absent or dead). 144--194+ = elders.WHEN IT COMES TO KITS:I get things like this mixed up all the time, so here is some helpful information, most of it will be in weeks so you don't get confused: 0 moons, when they are just born: ~Eyes and ear canals are closed. ~Kittens are born with blue eyes! They change as they age. ~The umbilical cord falls off around day 2. ~Kittens are born without teeth. ~Kitten gender can be determined. 2 weeks old:~Eyes and ears begin to open. ~The suckling reflex becomes stronger. ~Deciduous (baby) teeth emerge. 4 weeks old= roughly 1 moon old:~Crawling begins. ~Play becomes a central activity. ~Self-grooming begins. ~Weaning to solid food can take place. ~Kittens can eliminate (make dirt) on their own. 6 weeks old:~Kittens gain the ability to stand ~Reactions to sights and sounds begin ~Litter box training can commence ((If a kittypet)) ~Human socialization is critical at this point ((If a kittypet)) 8 weeks old= roughly 2 moons old:~Deciduous (baby) teeth fully emerge ~Spaying or neutering takes place ((If a kittypet)) 10 weeks old:~Kittens begin to lose their mother cat's immunity (less motherly instinct for them, usually). ~Susceptibility to respiratory and intestinal infection increases (must be careful!) 12 weeks old = roughly 3 moons:~Adult eye color emerges in most breeds ~Best time to adopt a kitten ((When kittens might be taken away from their mothers: if kittypets!)) ~Neurological development reaches adult levels ((They can think like adult cats. I don't want genious kittens, alright? Be realistic.)) 20 weeks, roughly 5 moons:~Suckling reflex begins to subside ((No more urges to drink milk!)) 24 weeks, roughly 6 moons when they can begin training as apprentices:~Kittens begin to experience a decrease in growth rate ((Don't grow as quickly)) 32 weeks, roughly 8 moons. They should be in training to become apprentices as this point unless there is a problem (Like there was with Crookedstar):~Full adult size; depending upon the breed 36 weeks; roughly 9 moons ~Sexual maturity reached; depending upon the breed ((They can mate, maybe have kits in another moon)) 52 weeks, roughly 13 moons, should be a warrior by now:Full adult. (YAY; they survived ^.^ biggrin ) Not understanding the time--don't remember the names of the seasons? Look no further~! Time/Seasons Leaf-bare - the season of winter Newleaf - the season of spring Greenleaf - the season of summer Leaf-fall - the season of autumn Quarter-moon - a week Moon - a 28-day period (one full moon to another), a month Moonhigh - 12 o'clock a.m. (midnight) Sunhigh - 12 o'clock p.m. (noon)

He knows how to talk to other animals (Foxes, Dogs *He taught Shadow & Brandy how to talk with them*, Badgers, etc.). He seems to be a little wise (A good start) and also doesn't seem to show much anger. He seems to be always calm and will always offer a helping hand. He is ambitious and a diligient friend.

She can be naive, and can ask the wrong question at an appropriate time. But she is the 'purest' cat and will do anything to help out even if she feels a bit too weak to fight.

Besides being the MOST stubborn and angry cat, she is somewhat of a mother figure and always loves kits and would even tell a story to them ('specially Brandy, which she sort of raised when the mother died). Shadow always loves to challenge any cat that dares talk rude, and any human who wants to even touch her. Yes she is a Rogue, the other ones are Kittypets. She gets the feeling she has red eyes for a reason, but she can't figure out why. she is loyal and puts others ahead of her indirectly and even though she rarely shows concern in her face, she will do anything to help others.

Um...this area of the guild's only for the advertisement and 1x1s. If this is going to be a group rp, you should probably put it in the series-based section. That said, I'm interested in the rp. I'll send you my profile soon.

~~Brandy, Nate, and Shadow ~~   It was a bright sunny morning for the three as the sun seemed to blaze it's rays down on the grass that was recently watered by the upwalkers...well.. Nate's and Brandy's that is. Shadow kept a far distance from humans ever since what had happened in the past that she never really wanted to talk about. After all...humans don't understand what and how a cat feels. When she sees Nate coming out through the door, Shadow leapt down from the wooden box all the way to the cold, smooth ground. She trotted over to Nate, mewing a 'hello' to him. "I see your doing fine as always...how's Brandy?" Ever since Brandy's mother died from some sort of disease, she became a motherfigure to them without the upwalkers knowing she was here. She can't say 'Upwalkers' to Nate and Brandy since they usually call them 'Housefolks'. She twitched her tail waiting for Nate's response: "Brandy's fine I guess, she seems to be getting better as time goes by. Right now she's sleeping so it's better to just leave her alone for now." He responded to Shadow with a quiet tone. He was somewhat shy, but when you become friends with him that is when his true self came by: "Besides, I had that dream again! This time I saw many cats running in the forest, they looked desperate! Most were screeching like they were trying to get away from something....." His ears flattened as he thought more about that dream which seemed to be...disturbing. Shadow tipped her head wondering why he couldn't finish the story. She then looks up to see a big bird that flew over the trees, but it was flying lower than most birds do. She glared up to see that it was carrying something......someone?! A kit! "Woah! Hold it Nate." Before Nate could retort, Shadow jumped up onto the wooden box and got on top to some slanted ground (roof) as she sped toward the bird.
As soon as she was a short distance from the bird, she jumped on the edge and with her claws on it's wing damaging the bird someway. All three fell down to something soft, the scent was full of upwalkers but Shadow ignored it as she wrestled with the bird. The kit seemed to have fled from the scene but watched closely when Shadow got to it;s neck and snapped it. The bird's body now went limp. Shadow took a breather since the bird gave her a real fight which had her ended up in a small scar on the nose...but it looked like it'll heal. She heard Nate and Brandy's voice calling for her as she see the two coming toward them and the kit. The kit was small...somewhere around 1-2 moons old. The kit was standing and it's reaction to sounds had truly emerged. The kit's pelt was all white and it's eyes were blue. It looked at them harshly at the three and for some reason Shadow knew who the kit was: "Your a...'Forest Cat' aren't you?" She asked in some sort of shock as the kit held it's head up high like some snob. Shadow hissed lightly not liking the cat's attitude. "Yes I am! I am from Rockclan! I am gonna be a warrior and tear out the fur of any enemy and intruder that gets in the way! Like you and the Kittypets." Shadow's eye twitched! What a spoiled brat! "Your welcome..." She hissed as she picks up the kit with her mouth by it's scruff. Even though the kit wailed, she went out and decided to take a trip to the forest. Nate pleaded to Shadow to wait up, and Brandy scurried after them not even knowing what is going on.
The three are now going to the forest to find this.... 'clan' or whatever to bring the brat home and hopefully never see them again. Well...Shadow hoped to never see them again.
