**BarnClan** is a group of barn cats who came together. The founder was Blacksun, he saw that he didn’t fit the role of leader, so he asked Maplestar. The Clan was named for the barn cats and The Barn at The Horse Place.

BarnClan cats are known for being laid back, while they are not lazy, they do spend most of their time sleeping in the sun. You should not attack them thought, they have the sharpest claws of all the Clans, they use this skill to dig deep dens to stay cool in the dessert heat.

BarnClan cats have strongly built hind legs which allow them to jump great heights or distances inherited from their ancestor, barn cats. They have rough, hard gray pads which help them to jump and walk long distances on hard, rough surfaces without breaking skin, which makes them infected. This feature allows them to climb and live on the hard, sandy ravine. They are very powerful cats, who are a bit like StormClan, eating mainly squirrels, ducks, rabbits, mice, voles, and many kinds of birds. They are known to often take loners and kittypets into their Clan to either swell their ranks or because the cat is in need of help or shelter, although this did not happen much until Chloe was taken into the Clan. For this, they are at times looked down upon by other Clans and thought of as weak.

## Description

BarnClan cats don’t have one common pelt color, since they have taken in kittypets and loners from all over.

Blacksun had gotten banished from BreezeClan and set a path to The Horse Place. When he got there he found that there where a lot of sick and hungry cats. He decided they would benefit from a Clan, so he got all the cats together and made one. They live just behind The Barn on a steep hill. The hill has one dead tree, the vantage point of the camp, called Tall Tree. There is a path going down the hill. On the ledges of the path are rabbit dens that the cats have widened. The hill flattens at the bottom creating a place to share tongues and eat.

## Territories

#### In the forest territories

BarnClan is located at the bottom right of The Territories Map. Their borders are shared with DarkClan to the left and LakeClan above them. Their camp is made up of-

* **Camp** - The camp is located in a steep hill, covered by dead trees and bushes. Making it hard to be attacked and hidden from Twolegs.
* **Tall Tree** - The topmost part of the hill is where a dead tree is located. This is where BarnClan gatherings are held. The leader would sit on the tree while the Clan cats sat below.

Outside the Camp-

* **Flatrock Planes** - This is the hunting area of BarnClan, located in front of The Horse Place. You can usually find rabbits and prairie dogs in burrows here.
* **Small Trees** - Small Trees is another hunting area located to the side of Flatrock Planes. It is a small, open forest. You can find ducks, squirrels, racoons, and sometimes foxes and badgers, apprentices are usually not allowed to go here unless a warrior is with them.

* **Sandy Bay** - (This place is shared by LakeClan) Sandy Bay is a great place to train new apprentices. The bay is filled with soft sand to land on so they don't hurt themselves.

## Eras

#### Maplestar

Maplestar is the first leader of BarnClan. She is smart and devoted to the Clan. After her first kit was taken by the two legs and her second kit fell into the icy river and died, she settled down at The Horse Place and met Falconheart, her most trusted friend. She believes that Clans don't need to fight, so BarnClan and LakeClan have become allies now, sharing news at the border every week
