wildclan -- the clan of the free and independent -- guide + sign ups -- semi-advanced

You are padding through a beautiful and luxiourious meadow full of all types of flowers big and small. The sound of the wind blowing across the field brings you joy, and you start walking faster and faster. Soon, you are running, and you feel like you could fly. Running for what felt like ages, you skid to a stop as a river suddenly popped up in front of you. Sinking your claws into the soft, muddy ground, you inhale and exhale, clearly tired. You look around for a place to rest, and you spot it across the river. Watching the fast current, you pause, thinking: 'Is this a good idea..?' Deciding not to, you walk away from it, only to trip over a rock. Stumbling to your right, you get to close to the water and fall in. Your scream is cut off as you go under, your paws moving quickly to bring you up to the surface. But the currents are too strong, and you start to drown. Squeezing your eyes shut, you think: 'Well, this is it. This is how I'm going to die.' But suddenly, teeth close around your scruff and you're pulled out of the water, even though you slip into unconsciousness...

Gasping awake, you see two figures standing over you, their expressions showing concern. "Oh, my, are they alright?" The one on the right asks, her voice like silk. She was a tan color, with hints of dark brown and white scattered in small stripes on her pelt here and there. Her eyes were unique, you had never seen a color like them before. They were a teal color, more on the green side than the blue. The other cat on the left cackled, on the other hand. "Hah! Of course they are, you imbecile, their eyes are open! Come on, Dewpetal, you should have left them to drown! They were almost dead anyways." The she-cat who had just spoke had a raspy, high-pitched voice, and it reminded you of the sound of something screeching. She wasn't as beautiful as the other one, but she still had a hint of someone that cleaned themselves. She had a brown pelt that consisted of light and dark browns, and black stripes along her back, neck, and face. She had scars everywhere, and it looked like she never lost a battle before. Her eyes were an amber color, much more common than the teal color on the other cat. Speaking of that cat, the one known as Dewpetal, she snorted. "Who are you calling an imbecile, Bloodstreak? You're the one with no brains!" When the cat known as Bloodstreak huffed and looked away, a new voice sounded in your ears. "Bloodstreak, Dewpetal, calm yourselves! This cat is obviously hurt, let us take them in to be fixed up." Turning your head slightly so you could see who was speaking, you spot a handsome tom standing farther away from you and the two she-cats. He was tall, and radiated authority. The tom had a strikingly white pelt, with black stripes all along his pelt. Like Bloodstreak, he had amber eyes, but they were more welcoming than hers. Hearing Bloodstreak mumble, Dewpetal dipped her head. "Of course, Ebonystar. But who are you to tell me, brother, what to do while I am the oldest one?" Hearing the tom known as Ebonystar chuckle, you find yourself laughing slightly, too. He turned his attention back to you, and your heart-rate quickened. "Well, stranger, it seems you have trespassed on our territory. But because you are injured, we will take you to our camp and get you better. But, be warned, if you try to escape: we will not hesitate to kill you. Now, come on, lighten up! I bet you won't do that now, will you? Good, let us go to camp then." He added the last statement when you nodded vigorously, you expression pure terror. Catching Dewpetal's eye, she just shrugged and helped you up. "You heard him, prisoner! We won't hesitate to kill you!" When you looked at her, she broke into the most evil grin you have ever seen. "Welcome to WildClan, the Clan of the free and independent."

"Hello, I'm Dewpetal! Ebonystar wanted me to tell you about our history and other things, and I must say, it is a pleasure to do so! Anyways, let us begin!"

HISTORY
"WildClan has been around as long as AdderClan, our bordering Clan, which is back in the ancient times of the world. We have never moved an inch from our territory, and we take pride in that. Because we've had so many leaders and important figures in our history, I'll give you a small list of the important ones:
- Wildstar was the first leader of WildClan, and the Clan was named after him.
- Tangleshatter was the first deputy of WildClan.
- Horsepool was the first medicine cat of WildClan, before we decided to have three instead of one.
- Heartfeather was the first leader's assistant, having developed the idea.
- Opalshine was the first deputy's assistant, being picked by Tangleshatter himself.
- Sunstorm and Goosewing were the first lead warriors.
- Mistystar was the fifth leader of WildClan, she died fighting AdderClan.
- Peachstar was the tenth leader of WildClan, she created the MoonFall with Molestar of AdderClan.
- Ebonystar is the twentieth and current leader of WildClan.
I know; it's a lot of leaders and important figures. I could go on, but we need to go onto wars now. And so far, we have only had one big war against AdderClan. It was over new territory, but neither of us won. We ended in a tie, and decided we would each get an even amount of territory. I don't think we'll be having another war anytime soon."

PREY & PREDATORS
"We live in the mountains, as you can tell. Prey is an important thing to know; but predators are even more important. Some prey we hunt are:
- Common rabbits
- Small birds
- Groundhogs
- Turkeys
- Squirrels
- Chipmunks
- Voles
- Fish
And there are even more! We never really go hungry until winter, but that's not coming anytime soon! Here are the predators we worry about:
- Wolves
- Bears
- Foxes
- Boars
- Bobcats
- Snakes
- Coyotes
- Cougars
And there are probably... Even more. But, don't fret! They stay away from us, unless we bother them, heh." [You hear her clear her throat.] "Well, uh, let us get onto our traditions and beliefs!"

TRADITIONS & BELIEFS
"We believe in StarClan, a Clan of heavenly cats in the stars who watch over us. The Dark Forest is the dark side of the world, and we stray away from them. They are believed to be vicious and haunt us in our dreams, that's why we have nightmares, hah! Um, they find our weakest point and try to make it weaker. But, StarClan finds our weakest point and makes it stronger, hooray!" [She coughs and clears her throat again, clearly embarrassed.] "Well, we don't have many traditions, but we do Gatherings once every Full Moon on an island in the middle of the lake. We get across by a small bridge we made out of oak bark. Our medicine cats meet with the other Clan's medicine cats every Half Moon at the MoonFall. Other than that, we don't really do much else."

"Well, I suppose I'm done. I hope your enjoy your stay here, and we hope you join! Again, I'm Dewpetal, and it was a pleasure to meet you!"

"Oh, StarClan, put me out of my misery. I have to do this?" [You hear a sigh.] "Fine. Only because I have to." [Someone pads over towards you, her expression utter hate.] "Hello, and welcome to WildClan, 'the Clan of the free and independent." [Her voice is monotone, and you hear a small mumble from her: "The 'free and independent,' by butt."] "Anyway, I am Bloodstreak, a warrior of WildClan. I have been given the 'pleasure' of showing you around our territory and camp. As you can clearly see, we are inside the camp right now. We live in a cave in the side of the mountain [x], and the front is covered by giant leaves. We live right by an oak forest [x] that is divided with AdderClan, but most of our territory is meadows [x, x, x]. But, we will get to the territory soon. The dens are carved into the sides of the camp [x], so that we are protected by wind, etc, etc. The Lead Rock [x] is where the leader and deputy make announcements or patrols."

[She sighs.] "Now onto the territory. Follow me outside." [You follow her outside, and she walks you around the whole area.] "We live in a place called Tennessee, whatever that means." [She huffed.] "And as you see, the forest is on the left, and the meadows are everything else. The whole place is surrounded by mountains [x], and the lake [x] is right in the center of the circle of mountains. Along the rock-cliff is where there is a rock-like structure of a playground [x] for the kits and apprentices to play on. We have a river [x] that goes to the lake, right by the oak forest."

"Well, I guess that's it now! Go on, shoo, I have to go take my nap now."
