    HawkClan is a clan that soars and glides the skies -- a clan known for their fondness for hunting birds and tree-dwelling rodents. They have a long-standing rivalry with BloodClan, but are otherwise laid-back cats with a love for beauty. HawkClan is an accepting clan with a multitude of unique members. This one and only clan is a pro-clan and one that is a great and friendly clan, and unless you mess with us we are rather peaceful. A tightly-knit clan, HawkClan is a place where most cats are familiar with each other, and most of the clan members are friends with one another. HawkClan is a clan that is proud of its members and its history, and continues to grow and advance every day.    [/fancypost]

    While HawkClan used to live solely within a forest, they now live within an eroded cavern that sits alongside a small beach; behind this beach can be found a densely wooded forest, filled with the types of prey that HawkClan had adapted to and grown accustomed to over the years.


    HawkClan's camp is situated within a water-front cavern that is situated atop the shore beside the territory's beach, the inside a rocky creation that has been made navigable due to erosion that has occurred over the years.


    Within the cave there are rocks lined up in a sort of staircase manner, making it possible to exit and enter the hole at will. The sand was a brilliant white, softer than many cats have ever before felt. On the left, there is a massive cave with thick vine-like ivies draping down that is used a warriors den, and right to the left of it lay another smaller cave for the apprentices. On the right there can be found four more dens -- one is quaint, a medium sized cave that had small purple flowers growing out of the sand. This is the den of the Clan's leader. The other, a slightly larger cave, had moss surrounding the mouth, indicating that a source of fresh water was nearby -- this den is occupied by the Medicine Cats. The next cave is the smallest, only a few tail-lengths long, but still large enough to house come cats; this den is used for elders, as there aren't very many within HawkClan's ranks. Finally there is the Nursery, a medium-sized cave, much like the leader's den, that has ivy tendrils hanging down before the entrance.


    One of the more well-known pieces of land in HawkClan's territory is the beach, the area in which the Clan has their camp. The camp, however, is located underground -- in a large series of caves that have eroded their way into existence over time.


    The beach, itself, isn't anything particularly big; the lake does provide a source of fish, for those who choose to hunt there, though. Some of the HawkClan cats enjoy the beach because of the sun's warmth, though there are others who tend to avoid it due to the sand.


    As for the rest of the territory, it is made up of both densely wooded forest and open plains. The forest is home to HawkClan's primary source of food, as it is squirrels and birds that they most commonly hunt, though some have adapted to begin hunting rabbits that can be found among the plains, as well.

    Unlike some Clans, HawkClan has a devout belief in StarClan, being a Pro-Clan. Despite this, they are not particularly religion-crazy, and do allow the freedom of religion to all of their members. It is most common, though, for HawkClanners to hold faith in StarClan.[/fancypost]


    [fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px solid #000000; width: 275px; height: 150px; overflow: auto][size=8][font=arial]
    HawkClan is a Pro-Clan and therefore has many of the expected enemies, though their allies are a bit varied.


    If you would like for your Clan to become an ally or an enemy of HawkClan, PM Moonaloo.

    MONARCH - A monarch is a warrior who is highest in the clan ranking system. This leader is responsible for everything that goes on in the Clan.
    Noirstar (RPed by moonaloo) and Copperstar (RPed by icarus)


    GENERAL - A general is a warrior who is second in command to the leader, usually replacing them immediately after their death or retirement. They also help for ceremonies.
    Tumultdusk (RPed by [u]Sleenky)


    SHAMAN(S) - A shaman is a clan member who treats diseases and injuries; they also receive and interprets omens from StarClan. The apprentice has to gather herbs, get water, or do other useful things.
    Akhenaten (RPed by [u]Saskia)


    SHAMAN TRAINEE(S) - Shaman in-training.
    Stickypaw (RPed by [u]Oh Snap    ) and Salixpaw (RPed by Switchy)


    ARISTOCRATS - The members of this "squad" are cats who have proven themselves loyal to HawkClan and their leader, as are they regarded with respect by the warriors of the clan. These cats can accept new members into the Clan, as well as serving as masters of warfare within the Clan.
    Dacnomaniacalpaw (RPed by Seaglass), Skyscraper (RPed by [u]Ebonydoa).


    VICEROYS - Members of this rank are in charge of two duties; they plan events within the Clan -- approval for which can be found in the leader or deputy. Viceroys are also given the task of assisting the newer members of the Clan, whether it be showing them around or explaining to them the system. Though they differ in function, Viceroys have the same amount of power as Aristocrats and are able to accept members, if need be.

    May I join HawkClan?
    Of course! Everyone is welcome in HawkClan! You are welcome to play whatever regular ranked character you wish, whether it be a warrior, apprentice, elder, queen, or kit. To join, you may either jump right in with a character that has already joined, or you may make a joining thread and await the acceptance of a high position.


    Is HawkClan a Pro-Clan or an Anti-Clan?
    HawkClan is a Pro-Clan.


    How do I get promoted to a high position?
    You can become a high positioned rank when you show that you deserve the rank. You must be active with the character you want to get promoted and must be very loyal to the Clan. If the member who plays the leader or deputy of the clan thinks that you're right for a high position, they'll promote you.


    How do I become a Tidal?
    The answer is the same as the question above, really. If the Monarch thinks that you're good for the position, they'll promote you. Tidal try-outs are also held every once in a while, so participating in these is also a good way to boost your chances.


    I want to make a major plot with HawkClan. How can I do this?
    PM the Monarch or General of HawkClan. Don't be shy, we're always open to hearing your suggestions!


    You can also come to the plotting thread here.[/spoiler]


    What is the HawkClan Hoe-down?
    An event created by Paintedpaw, Louvreart, and Wildstreak, this is an extravaganza. During the HawkClan Hoe-down, the Clan celebrates a great year of health and happiness and has a 'hoedown'. There are many events that are open for any mammal to join and there are prizes given to the winners made by the older kits and apprentices. After the competitions, a party is held with food and decorations. This is held once in summer and everyone joins in on the fun.

    What is marriage and how can I get my cats married?
    When two mammals love each other, instead of just being mates, they can become more than that by getting married. To get married, the proposer (traditionally the male) will ask one or both of the parents of the mammal they wish to propose to for their permission. If the parents give the permission, then the proposer will ask their love to marry them, usually presenting an object of value, traditionally a tail feather from a hawk, but it may also be a precious stone, trinket, or anything else that carries a symbolic value. To become officially married, the couple can ask for the Monarch, General, Shamans, Aristocrats, or Viceroy to marry them. If you need someone to marry your cat, you may post [u]here accordingly. Thanks to Nuka for letting us use this idea of marriage in HawkClan!


    Have any other questions, comments, or concerns regarding HawkClan? Feel free to message any of the Clan's high positions -- we'll be more than happy to help you out!

    HAWKCLAN
    [/fancypost]
    [fancypost borderwidth=0px][justify][size=8]HawkClan is a shoreline kingdom named after none but the mighty avian predator; though they are a Pro-Clan, when it comes to their enemies they are just as vicious as their namesake. The Clan has a great diversity of personalities and species, and as such cats are no longer the apex predators... all sorts of creatures run amok along the sands, because HawkClan is an open community where faces come and go with the tides.

    TERRITORY
    [/fancypost]

On the right there can be found four more dens -- one is quaint, a medium sized cave that had small purple flowers growing out of the sand. This is the den of the Clan's leader, the Monarch. The other, a slightly larger cave, has moss surrounding the mouth, indicating that a source of fresh water was nearby -- this den is occupied by the Clan's medicine team, the Shamans and their apprentices. The next cave is the smallest, only a few tail-lengths long, but still large enough to house come cats; this den is used for elders, as there aren't very many within HawkClan's ranks. Then, there is the Nursery, a medium-sized cave, much like the leader's den, that has ivy tendrils hanging down before the entrance.


    A newer addition to HawkClan camp is the prison; it is used to store captured enemy soldiers, and is an extension of the tunnel system. Its entrance is made of dried mud walls, with twigs and branches for support, extending only a few feet until this mud-and-wood creation melts into full-blown tunnels, harsh gravel coating the ground and with no natural light. For cats not used to the environment, the darkness can deceive even the most intelligent of beasts; for some, even the lack of light is maddening. There are always at the very least two guards at the entrance to ensure no breakouts, though it is common for an entire patrol of Knights to stand watch.


    One of the more well-known pieces of land in HawkClan's territory is the beach, the area in which the Clan has their camp. The camp, however, is located underground -- in a large series of caves that have eroded their way into existence over time. The beach, itself, isn't anything particularly big; the ocean does provide a source of fish, for those who choose to hunt there, though. Some of the HawkClan cats enjoy the beach because of the sun's warmth, though there are others who tend to avoid it due to the sand.

The forest is home to HawkClan's primary source of food, as it is squirrels and birds that they most commonly hunt, though some have adapted to begin hunting rabbits that can be found among the plains, as well.

    RELIGION & TRADITION
    [/fancypost]
    [fancypost borderwidth=0px][justify][size=8]HawkClan's main religion is StarClan. Despite this, they are not particularly religion-crazy, and do allow the freedom of religion to all of their members. It is most common, though, for HawkClanners to hold faith in StarClan or a similar set of beliefs.


    It is common for couples to unite in matrimony within HawkClan. Most often the Shaman, or Monarch will act as a priest of sorts, and marry the two with the blessings of the desired religion. Following marriages, HawkClan may have feasts and/or parties to celebrate the new couple.

    [align=center]TERRITORY[justify]
    MAIN CAMP
    HawkClan lives in a series of caves that they have been eroded into the rock, and that reside alongside a beach (out of the way of even the highest waves of the high tide). They have a beautiful view of the ocean and the shore, as well as the lush, green forest that resides a couple hundred yards to the right of the ocean. The high rock is a large stone that protrudes out of the ground, where the leader (or anyone else) will hold meetings. It slops upwards, yet is flat at the top so that you can get a decent grip on it once you've climbed it's slopes.


    INSIDE THE CAVES
    Inside of the caves, or dens, where they sleep- there is PLENTY of space for a good amount of cats to sleep. The kittens and queens have their own dens, as do apprentice, warriors, elders, shamans, and the leader. The shaman's den has grooves eroded into the wall where they can store their herbs. The leader's den is quite roomy, and under Castor's rule it has been decorated with many prized pelts. (e.g; tigers, jaguars, squirrels, badgers, raccoons, etc.) It has vines hanging in front of it. At the mouth of the den, there is a badger-skin welcome mat, which you must wipe your paws on before entering. Castor also has a giant dog bed inside of his den- which he found had been accidentally left behind by some humans when their ship crashed, and he lines that with pelts and that is where he sleeps. The [color=white]nursery     is the smallest cave, on the outside anyways. The entrance is big enough for a tiger to fit through, but it is also very large and spacious on the inside (somewhat like an igloo). The [color=white]rest of the den's     (warrior, elders, etc) are just large caves where plenty of light gets in, and big enough for all the cats to sleep in.


    THE OCEAN
    The ocean is beautifully clear and you can see the different fish, rocks, and corals that reside in it's depths. HawkClan hunts fish here, though they should stick to the shallows because lurking sharks and venomous sea-snakes are always a possible threat.


    THE FOREST
    The forest is a large, green pasture with plenty of thick trees and is it practically bustling with all sorts of year-round prey. Birds, mice, other rodents, deer for the larger cats, all that good stuff. Occasionally, a large predator will find it's way into the forest. (wip)
    [hr][align=center]RELIGION & TRADITION[justify]
    HawkClan takes on a simplistic, almost tribal-like lifestyle. They believe in spirits, not just the stars in the sky; it's completely optional to follow these beliefs, of course. Hawks, after which the Clan is named after, take on a sacred nature and are regarded as the guardians of the Clan's realm.


    Berries and human paint are used by HawkClanners frequently to create designs on fur and feathers; the more decorative, the better. Goody baskets are given to other Clans when they want to begin or strengthen relationships with allies.


    It is common for couples to unite in matrimony within HawkClan. Most often, the shaman or chief will act as a priest of sorts and marry the two with the blessings of the desired religion. Following marriages, HawkClan may have feasts and/or parties to celebrate the new couple.
