BlizzardClan

## Territory

BlizzardClan has moved from their old lands and up into the sky with their new **FLOATING ISLANDS**. Although we still own that old territory, our new one is considered the main one now. To get up to the Islands, you need to take a stone staircase upwards. There are many different territories on the Isles, which means that there is a variety of prey and never usually a shortage of food. These different biomes include forest, snow, marsh and even mountainous ones - all within the utopia. There are barriers around the place so animals don't fall off.

The Main Island ( which is themed almost like an enchanted forest ) is where the majority of dens are located, although members are free to sleep wherever they want. Stone huts have been made for members to reside in, the most prominent ones being those for the High Positions - which are usually decorated with flowering vines to signify importance. Overall, the camp is rather decorated, but compared to the rest of the territory it still doesn't stick out so much. They have kept their old territory, which is below the floating islands.

## History

BlizzardClan started as SnowClan back in 2007. It was made at a time when FanClans couldn't earn official status. The original SnowClan was led by Snowstar, roleplayed by wildkitty. When first created, it was a peaceful Clan that allowed free joinings. They only fought when they needed to, and like any Clan, had activity struggles. In September 2012, ViridianClan was created. They merged with ForestClan in February 2013 and then began to take over other Clans. ViridianClan won Favorite FanClan in October 2013, and then merged with SnowClan to make BlizzardClan in order to secure a board.

The Clan is now led by Tama Xerses, roleplayed by TOHSAKA. History before that has not been kept track of and is still being gathered and recollected.

FrostClan largely contributed to their history because they were sworn enemies who constantly fought, contributing to the post count. There was also once a tradition to hunt foxes, though not many remember it.

It started from September 2012, first starting out as any other ordinary FanClan. Its members never went past 20, but they were always active and found plots within their lives. As we hit official status, then sapphire, then ruby, we continued to make a name and attract more members.

Sometimes we hit rocky spots where there were a day without replies, but we always managed to get up again and burn lively. Around February 2013, we merged with ForestClan and hit our 50,000 post mark. There, we changed our name into ViridianClan and began to become more powerful by taking over other Clans.

Our first successful take over was DawnClan, then PantherClan, then WhiteWaterClan, and so on. We hit our 100,000th post mark about October 2013, and successfully won 1st place in the Favorite FanClan contest as well. The prize of having it stickied helped in our member gaining process, and then squipy and I saw a chance to merge SnowClan and ViridianClan together because of our need for a board, and their need for increasing activity.

SnowClan was founded in 2007 by Snowstar, roleplayed by wildkitty. This was a time in the site when there was no such thing as a FanClan earning official status, and it was considered, along with SunClan, to be an outer clan.

It was an open clan that allowed loners to join freely, and mostly peaceful. They entered battles as needed, though they have been attacked numerous times. It's had its share of activity struggles, which in part prompted the merge with ViridianClan, but it has a long history and will continue to be around for a long time to come.

Feliks was promoted to leader in late March 2015 by Star Council. He added the vice-leader position, and led the clan through several wars, human invasion and political struggles. He held his position until December 2015 where he was forced to step down after complications with major injuries he had suffered.

Tama, roleplayed by TOHSAKA, took up leadership in early December 2015 after Feliks stepped down. During her time as a leader, she has split the Paladin rank into Paladin and Combatant, as well as Head Paladin and Head Combatant, and declared official-war with the Exiles. She also created the positions 'Assistant-deputy', 'Auxiliary-Combatant', and 'Auxiliary-Paladin'. Whilst fighting several personal battles, protecting friends, and family, she made sure to be there for the sake of multiple people, also. She helped to end the war between Solsticeclan and the Skulls, exiled Bill Cipher, and multiple other threats, alongside setting up multiple political affairs and strengthening important alliances.
