Many, many years ago, an old leader named Oakstar brought his Clan to the forest.
This Clan was called StormClan.
They were looking for their lost deputy, Firestone, and settled in the middle of WindClan's territory. (Needless to say, WindClan weren't happy with this.) The StormClan of old were nowhere near what they are like today. Their warriors acted like rogues, although they maintained a sense of nobility.
Such behavior back then led to the creation of DawnClan, a combination of three Clans. StormClan combined its forces with the second incarnation of BloodClan (led by Cloudstar, Scourge's great-granddaughter) and SunClan (led by Ravenstar, who had been exiled from RiverClan after killing a cat in a bout of insanity). And while the ThunderClan, RiverClan, WindClan, ShadowClan, and DarkClan fought, DawnClan grew stronger.
Presumably due to their affiliation with DawnClan, plus the living-on-WindClan's-territory dilemma, they were almost wiped out by ShadowClan. Dragonstar, the leader at the time, joined RiverClan and became their deputy by the new name of Dragonclaw. Others who weren't killed in battle followed him to RiverClan. They would interbreed and produce descendants, and StormClan would gradually be forgotten. This all happened in June-July 2006.
Seasons later, when Cougarstar was RiverClan's leader, he created a police force. And, by order of StarClan, he started enforcing the warrior code more strictly. However, when a rebellion in RiverClan's camp forced Cougarstar to repeal the actions, several cats, including Newdesires (the reincarnation of Dragonstar), Taintedstorm, Planetarygo, Revival, Whippoorwill, and Clayfoot, plus other cats, broke off from RiverClan to restart StormClan. Cougarstar had received a prophecy of the return of StormClan, which went as follows:
"StormClan lives in them.
Remember, the one who sees through the eyes of the Dragon will split the river into weak streams, tainted of red."
This time, they would follow StarClan and the traditional warrior code, a practice that has continued today through several leaders—Newstar and Taintedstar, Planetarystar, and Revivalstar and Whipstar. The name was changed from StormClan to The Covenant, a word that reflects the pact made between StarClan and its believers in the Clan.
After Revivalstar's death succeeding a battle with PhantomClan, Whipstar became the sole leader of the Covenant. He eventually brought on a co-leader, Repeatingstar, but she has presumably disappeared. Fangstar became his next co-leader. Divisions to further enrich and build upon the skill set of the Clan's warriors have been created.
Fangstar died, however, leaving Whipstar as the lone leader again. He organized an expedition to find their very original territory, under StarClan's words that by discovering their past, he can learn how to navigate the future. However, events causing the Dominion and DarkClan to declare war on them has brought his party back home.
Upon his return, Whipstar immediately recovered the Covenant's neutral status with the Dominion and DarkClan, removed the divisions, and enacted other various changes.
Whipstar died along with Gixx, a respected master warrior and Freespirit, a respected warrior. Minx then became the leader.
When Minx fell inactive, the Council of the Stars demoted her, and promoted Masked in her place.
Masked stepped down to deal with family members, and Dragoondawn stepped up as the next leader.
Dragoonstar, as he got his lives, was told "The Stars will fall and a new dawn will come as the guilds assemble". Troubled by these words, he went home to think on them. His birthname had been Dragoon that Assembles at Dawn, so the message must pertain to him. He decided that they must have meant for him to set up guilds, but to do this, he knew that they’d have to drift even more than they had from Starclan.
So Dragoonstar set up a meeting to announce the new guilds, a change from proclan to neutral status, along with the announcement of his deputies.
Dragoonstar was killed, and Littlestar was the next to step up to the position of leader.
Shortly into her leadership, Littlestar abolished the Guild System and changed the rank names to what they are now, and changed the Clan's name from The Covenant back to Stormclan. During her reign, the Clan was also taken over by The Noblelands for a short while, however afterwards the two Clans became allies and are currently working together to improve Stormclan as a whole. While the Clan has changed dramatically from their roots, they are still the same fierce, formidable Clan.
Q:How do I join?
A: You can make a thread that features your character joining, or you can simply hop in as if your character had been in StormClan the whole time. Up to you!
Q: Do I have to join as a cat?
A: Not at all! You can play any animal in the Extended RP section!
Q: Can I have a high position?
A: Not immediately. High positions are played by members of the clan who have contributed significantly through activity, ideas, and friendliness. Keep working hard!
Q: Does my character have to follow the Warrior Code?
A: The warrior code will be more or less enforced, so it is a good idea to follow it if you don't want an IC punishment, there will be no OOC consequences.
Q: StormClan isn't from the books. Don't you mean ThunderClan?
A: On FeralFront, all the events from the books haven't occurred. Every leader and character is an original, and it's not based off of the canonical universe of Erin Hunter's Warriors.
Q: My character is being ignored/someone is being rude to my character! What should I do?
A: If your character is ignored, don't despair! It was probably an accident, or there wasn't a lot to reply to. State your desire politely in the thread. If a character is being rude to your character, this is an example of in-character opinions (IC Opinions). However, if a roleplayer is being rude to your character or to you, report it to staff. DO NOT TRY AND HANDLE THIS YOURSELF.
