Gladeclan

Located in the west of the Mirror Lake territory, Gladeclan make their home in a verdant forest close to the twolegplace. Their cats are known for being familial, spiritual and carefree,
=== Territory ===
Gladeclan is located in a dense oak forest west of Mirror Lake, with thick moss carpets and heavy brambles littering the forest floor. Ivy climbs the trunks of the trees and droops from branches, with clover padding the ground underfoot. At the centre of the territory is a large lake with clear, glittering waters and brimming with fish and waterfowl. Unfortunately, this lake is also occupied by a twoleg campsite and a fishing hut, where twolegs come year-round to spend their holidays. This makes the lake a dangerous area that the Gladeclan cats typically avoid if possible, though when searching for specific waterborne herbs and in times of prey scarcity, it is used as a last resort for resources.
To the far western edge of Gladeclan territory, the forest bleeds into a suburban village occupied by twolegs and their kittypets. As a result, there are a few walking paths throughout the territory that Gladeclan cats patrol regularly to watch for twolegs walking their dogs. Also, there is a greater population of ex-kittypets in Gladeclan, as it is more likely for them to become familiar with the kittypets from the village. 
There are a number of threats found in Gladeclan camp. Of course, the twolegs cause disruption and trouble to the clans with their curious children and even more curious dogs. However, the cats must also contend with a number of foxes and badgers that share the forest with them. Owls also sit patiently in the tree boughs, leading parents to guard their kittens ferociously. 
The main camp is situated away from the lake and the campsite and is instead in a clearing to the north. It is littered with wildflowers and beautiful grasses, with dens constructed from moss, twigs and rolled boulders. A patch has been dug into the earth and cleared of grass to make a dirt pit that is used for mossball matches with the kittens as well as some apprentice sparring training. The medicine cat’s den opens into the dense forest, with well-trodden pathways leading to where the best herbs grow. The leader calls their meetings from one of the lower branches of the largest oak tree, and makes their den in a cluster of roots and boulders to the right of it.
=== Customs ===
Gladeclan is relatively standard in its customs and hierarchy. Gladeclan is known for its strong family units, and it is tradition for a new warrior's first night to not be spent alone. Instead, a new warrior spends the night sleeping under the stars with their parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts and uncles. This is to signify the strength of their familial bond that does not end at childhood - a family is strong throughout a cat’s life. 
=== Traits ===
Gladeclan have a lot of variety in their appearances due to a lot of mixed heritage from the kittypets. They are typically very strong and muscular in their shoulders to assist with climbing the trees, and are large from their plentiful prey. Gladeclan cats are often generous and somewhat carefree, with some cats finding them frustrating to talk to as they are so fanciful with their views of life. They find it strange and difficult to understand that not all clans share the same strong bonds and will to protect each other. Other clans may jeer at Gladeclan for being such raw, sensitive cats, but Gladeclan find that their strength is often found in their love and trust in each other. 
=== Hierarchy ===
Currently, Gladeclan is lead by Ravenstar, with Silentbreeze as deputy, Asterheart as medic and Honeypaw as medic apprentice.
Ravenstar was preceded by Blazestar, Silentbreeze by Birdfeather and Asterheart by Flutteringshade.
