GLOOMCLAN
It is likely that you are not from here. Nobody seems to be willing to be here-- They've all been kidnapped when they were kits from their mothers, or perhaps kidnapped at a weak state and forced to become a member. GloomClan hasn't been a righteous, pureblooded Clan for a very long time, or at least, as long as it was formed. The history of GloomClan is dark and full of ill intentions, but one thing is for certain: If you stumble upon it, you are here to stay.
HISTORY
A long time ago, there lived the four Clans that now only exist in the legends. They were being wiped out by a strange sickness that swept through the territories, and the cats of the Clans were desperate. If you weren't picked off by the disease, cats had been driven insane and ended up killing others. StarClan had collapsed, or perhaps simply blocked themselves off from the Clans in this time of turmoil-- Nobody could speak with them. In ThunderClan, there lived a medicine cat by the name of Shortfur. Once kind and warm to others, his heart had turned to black when he watched his parents and younger siblings slaughtered by ThunderClan's deputy, Icestrike, in an act of pure rage. Similar things were happening in all of the Clans, and almost as quickly as it had begun, almost everybody was dead.
Shortfur had long since turned to evil. He rounded up any survivors from any of the Clans, and named himself Shortstar. He founded a group called GloomClan, named for the terrible gloom and doom that seemed to hang over everybody. He moved them into a new territory away from the lake in an effort to be away from the sick-infested lands, and threw everything they had ever known out.
Members are directed to steal any kittens they can find and bring them back to GloomClan to be raised into warriors. Whether this be from going into the twolegplace and taking them, or perhaps killing a rogue mother and taking her kits, any method will do. If they find an injured or weakened rogue or any other cat near their territory, they will offer them a choice-- GloomClan or death.
And now, Shortstar continues to lead with a firm grip laced with darkness. Rebel against him, and it may cost your life. Obey him, and you may be rewarded. What will you do?
TERRITORY
GloomClan resides in a thick forest full of red-leaved trees. The sunlight is constantly obstructed, making it very dark beneath the branches, and a mist constantly flows over the territory. A flowing river winds near camp, providing access to clean and safe water to drink and fish. Reference.
CAMP
Camp rests in a clearing in the forest, where tree trunks don't spring up, but the long branches and leaves still block out the sun. There is one large tree smack dab in the middle of the clearing, however, and it's within the hollow that the leader's den is. The medicine cat's den is a large hole nestled underneath the roots of the tree, and the other dens are in the bushes lining the clearing.
RULES
1. This is a moderate to advanced roleplay-- Try to have at least a paragraph or two that have something to work off of so we can reply.
2. You may have as many characters as you like, but if you already have deputy, you can't have a medicine cat or medicine cat apprentice, and vice versa.
3. Speaking of which, please only take as many characters you will be active with. I wanna see 'em around.
4. LGBT+ cats are welcome here, there will be no discrimination against them ICly or OOCly.
5. Keep things realistic to the books (or as much as you can with this plot), though.
6. Remember the golden rule here guys.
7. Drama is encouraged, as long as it's IC and not OOC! Acts of violence is also encouraged, and especially having your character bring in a kit or something. Wanna play that kit yourself? Or maybe somebody else will play it? Doesn't matter! Remember, this is not a good Clan by any means.
8. Put "Shortstar rules" in the other section of the form if you've read all these.

Name: Shortstar.
Gender: Male.
Age: 32 moons.
Orientation: Biromantic bisexual, prefers males.
Rank: Leader.
Appearance: Shortstar has very short fur that clings to his body and is very sleek. He's a very light cream color with dark brown, almost black, points like a Siamese cat. He has pale blue eyes, and he has a torn right ear. Small scars litter his front legs from walking through thorns when he was a medicine cat of ThunderClan.
Personality: Once kind and warm, Shortstar, after the sickness and murder that wiped out the original four Clans, turned to a life of villainy. He is commanding and absolutely demands respect, and has no soft spot for those he thinks of as weak links in the Clan. He sees no problems in his actions, and has been known to lash out at others. Despite this, he's got a surprising amount of patience, and due to the fact he thinks that what he's doing is best for his Clan's survival, he holds his Clanmates that have not done anything to wrong him in high regard. He wishes that the others would understand why he's doing this.
History: Shortstar was born to Rainpebble and Birchstorm of ThunderClan, and was the only surviving kit of his litter. As an apprentice, he was mentored under Goldenberry, the medicine cat of ThunderClan at that time. Things were peaceful, and he soon became Shortfur, and stepped up to medicine cat when Goldenberry retired to the elder's den. Things were uneventful until the sickness and murder plagued the Clans, where he watched Icestrike kill off his parents and his younger siblings, Brackenpaw and Sootpaw. After all this, he rounded up any survivors and implemented GloomClan.
Relationships: All direct family is dead. Open to anything else except mates right away.
Other: Shortstar rules.
Name: Blossomleaf.
Gender: Female.
Age: 26 moons.
Orientation: Bicurious, thinks of herself as straight but it is possible for her to love a female.
Rank: Warrior.
Appearance: Blossomleaf is very stocky-built with thick, long fur. She has calico-patterned fur, and her eyes are a
bright green in coloration. Scars litter her pelt, a notable one being two claw marks over the top of her muzzle.
Personality: Blossomleaf is a gentle giant. While she may seem scary from all of her battle scars and just how big she is, she is actually very sweet. She loves to help out her Clanmates, and though she will do whatever Shortstar asks of her in terms of beating outsiders up and then kidnapping them, she doesn't particularly like doing it. She can be timid at times, though she knows how to be assertive.
History: Blossomleaf was born in WindClan, her parents being Rabbitstar and Runningwater. She was the littermate to Eagleflight and Nightpaw. During her apprenticeship, her brother Nightpaw was killed during a fox attack, and her mother, Runningwater, soon became distant to the rest of her kits out of grief. After a while, despite her young age she was promoted to deputy under her father. She never stepped up as leader even when everybody was dying off, as by the time Rabbitstar lost his last life, WindClan was mostly wiped out and Shortfur (later Shortstar) had come to take her and the rest of the survivors to GloomClan.
Relationships: Direct family is dead, though she is open to half-siblings as Rabbitstar had a mate before Runningwater. Open to anything else except mates right away.
Other: Shortstar rules.

aaa thank you both for considering my little concept of a clan! <3
i'll reserve med cat app. for you legend c:
-
I LOVE ALL OF YOUR GUYS' CHARACTERS SO MUCH!! i'll add 'em up now!
also cough cough copperstorm shortstar could end up developing a crush back on stormheart after a while ;3i'll make a chatting and plotting thread, and the roleplay thread once one more person joins in!
-
i'll add them up!!
however, i just wanted to ask, are you set on her being taffy or would you like a clan name for your med. cat? gloomclanners tend to force a clan name on their stolen or "sheltered", but shortstar wouldn't put up too much of a fight if she had wished to keep her name.
-
i put her down as taffy for now, if you think of a clan name just let me know!
making the chatting/plotting and roleplay thread now!

Welcome to GloomClan's plotting and chatting thread! Here we can chat about things going on in the roleplay, or plot things out. This first post will also be updated with current plots and any plot ideas if anybody has any!
You can sign up here!
Leafbare has declined into an end, newleaf just around the corner. With Shortstar having formed GloomClan, he struggles to reign control over some cats who find what they're all doing to be despicable, and perhaps some are dismayed at StarClan's dormancy. A conflict is surely brewing, but can Shortstar keep things in control or will GloomClan fall to a rebellion?
Suggestions are open!

SHORTSTAR.
Male. | Leader. | 32 moons. | No apprentice. | Interacting with: Open.
The sun was just rising over the horizon when Shortstar emerged from his den within the large tree that lay in the middle of their camp. His stern pale blue gaze scanned the area in front of him, watching as his valued warriors began to stir from their slumber. He wondered, idly, if any of them had received word from StarClan-- Nobody had heard anything from their starry-pelted ancestors since the middle of the era in which sickness had swept over the four Clans. As the former ThunderClan medicine cat, it almost irked him, but... Did they really need StarClan? He had joined everybody together, even though he had but one life. StarClan hadn't stopped everybody from being wiped out. And would StarClan still accept them? They were kit-stealers. Murderers.
He shook his head, clearing his thoughts. No, it wouldn't do to have all this in his head. They were thriving. Though he could sense trouble brewing on the horizon for a few of his more, erm, rebellious Clanmates, he had faith that if anything happened, he could subdue them. He had to. He sat down, a very light smile on his face as he watched more of his Clanmates emerge from their dens.
BLOSSOMLEAF.
Female. | Warrior. | 26 moons. | No apprentice. | Interacting with: Open.
Blossomleaf stretched within her nest, her long fur bushing up and her claws unsheathing involuntarily as she did so. For a second there, she almost believed she was back in WindClan-- Back in her den, surrounded by her fellow warriors on the moors, next in line to take over as leader after her father, Rabbitstar, lost his final life. But that was no longer, and it quickly came crashing back down when she opened her emerald eyes. She was in the warrior's den of GloomClan. Eugh. The disdain she held for Shortstar was unreal, but what choice did she have?
Shaking out her calico fur, she headed to the fresh-kill pile, not keen on meeting the night kidnapping patrol that was surely back with another kit. She hoped that nobody was killed this time, but she doubted it.

double post buuuuut here's the roleplay thread :~)

SHORTSTAR.
Male. | Leader. | 32 moons. | No apprentice. | Interacting with: Chivepaw.
The sleek tom watched Chivepaw as she emerged from the medicine cat's den nestled under the roots of the tree, having no objection of her keeping him company for a while. He knew she must miss RiverClan, and he could understand that-- He often times found himself wishing he was in ThunderClan again, with his parents and younger siblings. His mind flashed back to when Icestrike had murdered them before his very eyes, and he fought back snarling, just in case Chivepaw thought it was directed towards her. But this was home now, away from the disease and the troubles of the lake. And though they were not abiding by the warrior code now, he liked to reassure himself that he'd stop having his warriors steal kits when they were strong enough.
"Good morning," He mewed back in a neutral tone, then shook his head. "I haven't. StarClan remains quiet to me. Yourself?" His voice went quieter when he mentioned their ancestors by name, though his pale blue eyes drifted towards Stormheart. Ah, so he had been successful. He offered the large warrior an approving nod.
BLOSSOMLEAF.
Female. | Warrior. | 26 moons. | No apprentice. | Interacting with: Falconstrike, Adderpaw.
The stocky she-cat felt her fur stand on edge when Falconstrike called out her mistake. Sometimes she really wanted to claw that she-cat's face. She knew that if she did get too violent, though, Shortstar would surely order an attack on her-- And she very much valued living, thank you very much. She heaved a heavy sigh, rolling her eyes a bit. "Forgive me for forgetting, I forgot we even valued the warrior code nowadays." She retorted shortly, dropping her piece of prey back on the pile, not willing to get into a fight over it.
She startled when the form of Adderpaw bumped into her, but she didn't pay it much mind. She knew that he remembered his mother being slaughtered by GloomClanners-- She hadn't been on the patrol herself, as she tended to avoid going on them as much as possible, but it still must have been traumatizing for the apprentice. "It's alright. You can have my piece, if you like."
