Moonclan

Dwellers of the Ruins

The Elusive, intelligent

"Now, Witheredstar, we both know that's not true. We've scented your cats within our borders far too many times for our liking. Perhaps if you'd stop lying we could get an arrangement worked out."
Witheredstar snarled, lashing his tail. "Sandstar, is that an accusation I hear?" His emerald gaze was aflame with fury, and the warning tone in his mew was sinister. Unfazed, Sandstar gazed serenely at the leader, the corner of her mouth turned up in the hint of a smirk.
"Witheredstar, surely you have the common sense to differentiate accusation and common speech, do you not? Clearly what you are hearing is an accusation, now how does Treeclan plea?"
With a roar of fury, Witheredstar lunged toward Sandstar. "Treeclan, attack!" Calmly sidestepping the enraged tom's assault, Sandstar crooked her tail and Moonclan's first patrol rushed into battle, meeting Treeclan with a clash of claw and fang.
A sly smirk on her face, Sandstar watched as the first patrol maneuvered the Treeclan cats to the ideal location for the plan. Once they were in the perfect place, Sandstar looked to the river, where the second patrol was lying in wait.
Administering the signal for them to emerge, Sandstar watched as the Treeclan felines were entrapped within a circle of Moonclan cats. Entering the circle, Sandstar serenely grinned.
"Witheredstar, I expect no further traces of Treeclan scent on our territory. Is this understood?"
The tom, upon hearing Sandstar's mew, propelled himself toward her. With an aggravated hiss, Sandstar ducked, sliding beneath the tom by utilizing the slippery terrain and raking her claws down the tom's entire stomach.
Emerging on the other side, Sandstar clamped her jaws around her adversary's tail, yanking harshly downwards. Standing up once more, Sandstar glared coldly at the sprawled and bleeding leader.
Motioning for Moonclan to move from their circle formation, she turned to Witheredstar's deputy Redwater. "You may take him and leave. If you get him to your medicine cat soon, he may not even lose a life."
"Two of my warriors will escort you to the border." She finished, motioning for two warriors to do so. "Moonclan, let's get back to camp." Smiles were on the Moonclan cats' faces, and as they reached camp they broke out into cheerful caterwauls.
"All hail Moonclan!"

Felines within Moonclan can have a huge variety of attributes, however, there are a few regulations one must follow to adhere to a fairly realistic character.

* Felines within our ranks must be feral felines. No big cats such as a snow leopard, lion, tiger, or any other large feline may not be in my, or the original, book series. Though they can be mentioned as ancient clans such as Lionclan and Tigerclan from the Erin Hunter series.

* Characters must have realistic coloration. Colors that are permitted for pelts are what you would see on any regular cat.  Exceptions are only permitted if your character's breed has an eccentric pelt color, and in that scenario, an IRL picture must be shown. As for eye color, as I said before, must be what you would see a feral or domestic cat with is permitted.

* Characters cannot be outrageously large or small. While of course height and size varies from breed to breed, please have your character have a size realistic for their breed.

D I S P O S I T I O N
Felines within Moonclan have a massive variety of personalities and dispositions, however, there are some rules one must follow when creating their character.

* Your character's personality must be explained in-depth. Characters aren't just two-dimensional; if done correctly they're just as complicated as their creator's. If your OC's personality revolves around a single trait or two, you will be asked to provide a more in-depth explanation for their motivations and behavior. Use Google if you must.
* Characters need positive, negative and neutral attributes. Nobody's perfect, and the same holds true for your character. A character whose attributes and personality aren't balanced is known as either a Mary Sue or Gary Stu. Either way, this terminology refers to overly perfect characters with a severe imbalance of traits. This also applies vice versa, to a blatantly villainous character with no motivation and an imbalance of traits toward the negative side. Think of Firestar, the Erins made his personality way to perfect and I grew to dislike the character. I myself need to work on giving my characters' flaws.
* In addition to the previous rule, a character's personality traits shouldn't be contradictory. A stubborn but easily swayed character doesn't make sense. Should your character's personality be like this, you will be asked to alter them, but only slightly.

Moonclan has had a long history of Leaders, Lionstar only being the latest.
**1. Moonstar**The founder of Moonclan, Moonstar is said to have been an extremely brave and curious feline, often regarded as a tad shy as well. Her bravery started an entire empire, and her tale is still told today, kept alive by the Elders.
**2. Sycamorestar**The second leader of Moonclan, Sycamorestar was said to be an incredible battle strategist, leading Moonclan to victory against the forces of Treeclan and Stormclan. His Moonclan was victorious over Treeclan and Stormclan, two rivalries still perpetuated to this day.
**3. Drizzlestar**An avid spiritualist, the Moon Stone was discovered during her reign. She was also the one who claimed the river for Moonclan.
**4. Gladestar**
A wily and eccentric leader, Gladestar has become notorious for her brilliant battle strategy and numerous victories against the forces of Treeclan and Stormclan.
**4. Lionstar**
While Lionstar may express her vain personality while talking to cats rather well, she still is an honorable cat and protects her clan with all her strength and courage.
T A L E S & L O R E
The felines of Moonclan have rich and complex lore, passed down in the tales Elders tell to KoiClan kits. Their rivalry with both Stormclan and Treeclan is as old as Moonclanlan itself and is ingrained into their history.
**How Moonclan was made**
"Long ago, little ones, before Moonclan was around, there was a beautiful, strong, smart, curious and brave she-cat, this feline belonged to Bloodclan. Now, Bloodclan wasn't accepting of this feline's talents. This young she-cat was known as Moon, and she was discontented with her life within Bloodclan.
She had always felt that there was more to being a warrior than fighting and killing practically everyone, but when he approached Scourge, he wouldn't hear of it. 'Strength and killing your adversaries is the sign of a truly great warrior, Moon.' He rumbled, glaring critically at Moon's limber frame with little muscle. 'You need to train harder, that should teach you how to respect your leader.'
Moon was even more despondent now, she was forced to train for battle, but when she used trickery to win she was denounced. 'True warriors don't resort to petty trickery, Moon.' Her mentor said, glaring critically at the Warrior.
Finally, Moon had enough. Sneaking out late at night while everyone was sound asleep, she set out to build a Clan of like-minded individuals, more accepting and kind-hearted than Bloodclan. Eventually settling on the other side of the river from Bloodclan, she recruited all manner of like-minded rogues, kittypets, and abandoned clan and tribe cats.
Soon, they built a thriving and prosperous Clan. After their leader, Moonstar, they named it Moonclan, and they lived in this very camp. We all have to be grateful to Moonstar for her bravery and creative thinking, or we wouldn't be here today. And, little ones, that's how Moonclan was made!"
**How Moonstar First Beat Stormclan**
"Gather 'round young ones. Today I shall tell you the tale of how Moonstar first met, and beat Stormclan. Long ago, a warrior named Sycamorebranch was leading the Dawn Patrol when all of a sudden the cats scented a rancid odor, that they thought had been perhaps a rotting skunk, but when they heard menacing caterwauls, they pelted back to camp and alerted Moonstar. Moonstar told all of the kits queens and elders to hide in the old abandoned fox sets they had previously used during a dangerous storm. Every one of the warriors hid in the darkness waiting for these cats to arrive. Few stayed out with Moonstar and Sycamorebranch to confront these warriors. When almost an entire clan arrived the others slid out from hiding their muscles tense, claws unsheathed, and teeth bared in snarls. Moonstar and Sycamorebranch stepped forward, and two cats came from the middle of the circle their adversaries created. Moonstar recognized one cat, who she knew as Storm. At this Moonstar meowed, her ears pinned to the back of her head, ' Uncle, what are you doing here? I thought you were still in Bloodclan. ' The tom spat prowling forth a small bit, ' I no longer work as a Bloodclan slave! Scourge exiled all of our kin after your disappearance! Everyone but me died. Now you will pay for our kins' death Moon! ' Flames of fury blazed brightly in Moonstar's amber eyes, but before she could speak, Storm went on once more, ' Also, with much thanks to Firestar, Scourge has died, a much-deserved death. Also, my name is now Stormstar, and by the looks of it, you are Moonstar. ' Moonstar nodded and meowed, ' It is. But I would like to know, how is it my fault entirely that you and our kin were exiled from Bloodclan? ' Stormstar yowled angrily, ' Stormclan attack! ' Moonstar signaled for Moonclan to attack and the two clans fought fiercely but with the help of Starclan, and the cats' quick and creative thinking, Moonclan won the battle. ' You have won the battle Moonstar! But you have not yet won the war! ' Were Stormstar's words as he fled from these very ruins.  "

Moonclan, like most clans, believes in Starclan. But not all of the felines within the group believe in Starclan. Since Moonclan is mixed with many clans and tribes, they also have mixed beliefs. Some put their trust in Starclan and others believe in The Tribe of Endless Hunting, occasionally you will meet some cats that believe in both, or even neither.

1/2 C L A N  C H A R A C T E RCurious and strong, Moonclan cats are often quite peaceful. Although they are generally predisposed to diplomacy instead of war, they understand the need for warfare and respect their Leader's decisions when it comes to blows. Moonclan felines are normally introverted yet when their intelligence is insulted they become enraged; furiously prideful when it comes to their Clan and heritage.

*Moonclan is not currently accepting Medicine Cats all other ranks are open besides leader and deputy of course.*
