Note: Stories involving StormClan will be uploaded soon!

## Description

### Personality

StormClan cats are patient and calm cats who’d do absolutely anything for their Clanmates or kin, even if it means risking their lives. It’s not uncommon for cats to have friendships with outsiders, but they will attack if it’s necessary to protect their Clan.

### Appearance

StormClan cats commonly have pale ginger, golden-brown or tortoiseshell pelts. This is to blend in with their forest surroundings, as these colours tend to provide more camouflage.

## Habitat

### Territory

#### In the Forest Territories

The StormClan forest territory was a thick forest flooded with dense undergrowth. Landmarks in the territory included:

##### Landmarks

Camp–A large hollow in the centre of StormClan territory. The entrance was enclosed with ferns and brambles, and the camp was well hidden so that only cats who knew the territory well could find their way inside.

Birch Rocks–Flat rocks that rest against each other, beside a collection of tall birch trees. Cats came here to sunbathe

Twolegplace–Not technically part of StormClan territory, but it was quite close to their border with PineClan. Adventurous kittypets often used to stray into the territory, and mostly these were kittypets who’d been abandoned by their Twolegs. This was the reason why, back when the Clans lived in the forest, StormClan had a reputation for taking in lost kittypets to their Clan.

##### Borders

FrostClan Border–The great river separated StormClan from FrostClan.

PineClan Border–A bigger-than-usual Thunderpath that separated StormClan and PineClan.

#### In the Mountain Territories

The StormClan mountain territory is a forest – smaller than the other forest in the old territories – filled with oak, birch and alder trees. In the lake territories, StormClan has the smallest territory out of all four Clans. This is also their current territory. Landmarks in this territory include:

##### Landmarks

Camp–A clearing in the forest, not quite so protected as the other camp. Ferns and holly bushes surround this camp, but it’s not that hard to find.

Hawk Ledge–Ledge near their border with CloudClan where a mother hawk makes her nest during newleaf. Extremely dangerous when the hawk is living there in newleaf, as cats have been picked up and carried away by the hawk in the past. Kits, apprentices, and younger warriors are forbidden to go near, and even the senior warriors try their best to avoid this place.

##### Borders

PineClan Border–A Twolegplace. To get into the opposing Clan’s territory, the cats need to get through the maze of Twoleg nests.

CloudClan Border–Cliff that towers above the StormClan territory and hunting grounds. Hanging off the side is the Hawk Ledge. This is the border that separates StormClan and CloudClan.

### Camp

#### In the Forest Territories

##### Dens and Meeting Place

Storm Tree–Tall tree that apprentices often used for climbing practice. The old StormClan meeting place. The leader scrambled up and called meetings from on top of the tree.

Leader’s Den–The entrance to this den was a small tunnel. The tunnel then led around the corner slightly and into the actual leader’s den, where there was a small moss bed inside. It was said that there used to be a river there, but when the drought happened, the river didn’t come back after, so StormClan moved their leader’s den there as they thought it was better-fitted.

Medicine Cat’s Den– A cave dug into the side of the StormClan camp where the medicine cat and their apprentice sleep together. Another section of this den flows off from the main area, and this is where the sick or injured cats make their nests [temporarily, while they recover]

Warrior’s Den–A thick, bramble-enclosed den where the warriors sleep.

Apprentice’s Den–Beside the warrior’s den, a large space under a holly bush where the apprentices sleep.

Nursery–A smaller, fern-enclosed den where the queens sleep with their kits.

Elder’s Den–Den under the shelter of a large oak tree. The elders sleep there, nestled among the ferns and brambles.

#### In the Mountain Territories

##### Dens and Meeting Place

Storm Rocks–Two big rocks that lean up against each other. Another boulder rests on top. The StormClan meeting place. The leader calls meetings from balanced on top of them.

Leader’s Den–The space under the two rocks. The tunnel continues for a fox-length, then opens up into the main leader’s den.

Medicine Cat’s Den–A little corner in the camp which is enclosed and sheltered by ferns, brambles and other bushes. There’s a hollow log in the middle where the medicine cat stores herbs. Off to one side of the den is where the patient’s den is, and where the sick or injured cats rest until they heal.

Warrior’s Den–A fern-enclosed den where the warriors sleep.

Apprentice’s Den–Massive, hollow tree stump that opens up on the inside to the apprentice’s den.

Nursery–Large-ish den beside the medicine cat’s den where the queens and kits nestle up among the ferns to sleep.

Elder’s Den–Bramble-covered den with a large log laid across the top to provide some shelter for the elders.
