Hello, and welcome to Ferretclan! 【 Territory 】 The terrain in Ferretclan is made out of plains, vast ones to be exact. You will barely ever find a tree, and so the cats of this clan will never know how to climb one. Bushes are scattered around, but infrequent. Moss blankets some deeper hollows, and there is a lake on the edge of the territory for those brave enough to venture away from the comfort of the territory. 【 Prey 】 Some prey you will find in these territories are mice, voles, fish from the lake, and rabbits. Cats in this clan are speedy, and use the wind to their advantage. They learn at a very young age how to tell wind direction and learn how to use it to their advantage during apprenticeship. When you are an apprentice, one of the first things your mentor will do is show you the lake, the source of water and fish. You will learn to fish and swim, vital skills. 【 Skills 】 Fishing: These cats are taught to fish almost immediately into apprenticeship, as it is a very quick way for them to get the prey they need. Swimming: A battle tactic learned exclusively by this clan, as Bearclan does not have a deep enough water source. They use this against predators and attackers to get to safety. Running: Young cats in this clan usually run around camp, their slender builds allowing them to speed through the territory like a rocket on paws. 【 Leadership System and Roles 】 This clan is run on a democracy. The deputy is called a "second", and does not have a guaranteed chance to become leader. The counsel is made up of the elders in the clan, and they choose the representatives. These three will then take turns telling why they should be the leader. The cats of the clan (excluding the counsel and the representatives) will then take a vote on who they think should lead. The winner of that will then become the leader, and choose their second. » Highranks Leader: Was elected by the clan, and leads the clan in anything they need help with. Have the suffix -scribe or the corresponding suffix to their power (Fire: blaze, Earth: leaf, Water: stream, Wind: breeze) Second: Basically a deputy, just without the succeeding the leader part. Counsel: The elders become the counsel, and choose the representatives. If they come to a mutual agreement they can also demote the current leader or second as they choose. Healer: This cat was trained as a warrior, but was blessed with healing abilities once their power ceremony came around. They hunt and patrol like regular warriors, but have no powers and heal cats on the side. » Regulars Warriors: Full members of the clan, hunt and patrol to keep it safe. Apprentices: Have the suffix -paw, and train under a warrior until 12 moons of age. Kits: cats under 6 moons, they play around with no real responsibilities. They are not allowed out of camp. 【 Q&A 】 TBA
