The city belongs to cats. Four Clans roam this town, each with their own unique territories. They face their own unique issues based on where they live, and yet there are the mutual problems: twolegs, lack of prey, etc. They are all proud of their own Clans, of course, and though they may seem wildly different from the Clans of the forests and other such places, these four city Clans will fight just as fiercely as any other Clan cat.
Four Clans in one city, where the seasons' weather are much how you'd expect. Newleaf is somewhat warm and quite rainy, greenleaf is hot and somewhat dry, leaf-fall is cool and windy, and leaf-bare is cold and gets a decent amount of snow.
Towards the center of the four territories, there is a building that's low enough for the cats to easily access, but high enough to get a clear view of the full moon. This is where the Clans have their Gatherings. There happen to be boxes where the four leaders leap on top of during the meeting. This building is abandoned, and on the inside there is a room where the cats meet with their ancestors in StarClan. Though they now know the name of the material, they still call it a Moonstone. It is a rectangular box with a smooth, reflective side that catches the moon from an open window. It is hard and cold, but big enough for quite a few cats to gather towards.
These cats have many words most traditional Clan cats would not, due to their influence by twolegs and kittypets. They are also generally more accepting of kittypets, and often try to persuade loners to join them.

BoxClan
Territory and Camp
This Clan's territory lies primarily in the suburbs, as their current camp is located inside an abandoned twoleg nest on the highest level (the attic). It used to be under a shed, but twolegs destroyed it before even the oldest of the elders was can remember. They are named for their unique dens, though the boxes serve quite a few purposes. Clan meetings are held from the tallest pile of boxes in the camp, which the leader (and any other cats) can climb up using the series of boxes that lead to the top. There are a few boxes that make a sort of cliff a bit under the highest box, and cats often stand there when they are involved in a ceremony or anything of the kind.
All of the dens are made of boxes - some of which were open already, others of which the cats have torn through. They are generally lined with whatever the cats can find, which are often blankets and clothing from whichever twolegs used to live in the nest. The warriors' dens in particular are a series of stacked boxes, so that there is always extra sleeping space. Most other dens are ground level. These cats are very sneaky, and often find themselves on twoleg territory looking for prey. They have even been known to sneak in to twoleg dens while following prey.
There is also an elementary school they frequent, due to it being near a thicket. The cats know this as the twoleg nursery, and have the schedule mostly memorized to avoid run ins with twolegs for the most part. Many apprentices enjoy the playground as an interesting way to train, and some empty boxes in the camp are considered very entertaining.
Afterlife: BoxClan believes in StarClan much like the traditional Clans of the forest, however, they do not believe in The Dark Forest. Rather, they believe in an alternate plane of the sewers - which is generally unvisited by the cats to begin with - and is known as ColdClan. ColdClan is where terrible cats go, and it's debated if they fight amongst themselves or plot some sort of revenge. It is also believed that it is possible for cats to be in some sort of in between, but generally that it is of their own choice.
Kits: Once a queen discovers they're going to have kits, it's customary to visit the medicine cat(s) and share tongues. This helps the medicine cats get a vision of what may lie in the kits' future. After the kits are born, no one outside of the nursery other than the queen's mate, the medicine cat(s), and the medicine cat apprentice(s) if there are any, are allowed to see the kits the first day.
The first night, the parents of the kits and a medicine cat (and one apprentice if there is one) all sleep curled around the kits in the nursery. It's believed this way, the good traits of the kits' parents will be more likely to be passed on, and the medicine cat's presence makes it more likely for the kits to survive the first night. In the morning following the kits' birth, the leader enters the nursery and is told the name of the kits. The leader relays this information in a Clan meeting, and cats can now go congratulate the parents. Congratulations are often accompanied by whatever soft things for bedding the cats can find, or prey.
Deaths: After a cat dies, their wounds are cleaned up by the medicine cat(s) if need be, and those closest to them, along with the medicine cat(s), leader, and deputy, share tongues for the last time. Once this is done, they are taken out of the camp, via the stairs rather than the tree by the window, and the elders and/or apprentices if no elders are capable of it, and buried so that flies are not attracted to the body.
Names: Nothing is particularly unique about BoxClan names, but more so the sort of names cats are granted. They are much more affected by twolegs than traditional Clans, and so they have names of materials that other Clans may not have.
More may be added sometime.
1. Follow FF rules
2. Don't be afraid to initiate some sort of drama to make the story interesting (the leader may be challenged and/or killed)
3. That being said, no killing or seriously injuring a character without the role player's permission! Plan it out first (and preferably let me know it's been planned so that I don't worry you're breaking the rules)
4. Please don't fight each other out of character or start any in character fights just because you don't like another player!
