I don't have many ideas, but maybe the clan-giving ceremony for the kits was a bit of a superstition and parents of the good clan could choose not to make their kits change clans, but it often results in the parents getting booted out of the Clan? - minnowsplash
Cube ideas: - 2 sections, made up of different clans. A side that is less cruel, and a side that's more cruel. Doesn't mean they're evil. > each side is made of 2-4 clans. That can be up to 8 clans, but i suppose it won't be that hard to manage, since we have 8 managers. > the cruel side uses the system that separates kits as soon as they're weaned. > the light side uses the system that separates them at 6 moons. > the sides believe in different selections of gods, but they agree on one god. That one god is the reason they gather once a moon and do not fight. > each clan worships specific gods, but all agree that each god exists, and should be worshipped. But the light and cruel sides do not agree. > each side has a council, who reside at the middle, in the gathering place. They make decisions for their sides and come to agreements. They serve as advisors, and are more respected than leaders, but they cannot control their leaders. They are forbidden from fighting. > the council chooses which kits go to which clans. - on the occasion that there are magical power cats, > few select cats are born with the powers to do magic, but not certain powers. Based on their temperment and personality, the council will separate them to a certain clan with cats who have similar personalities. These cats will teach them the powers they know. > all magic cats do not have the power to do all magic, since certain types require different personalities. If i have sent this to you, that means that I want you to spill ALL of your ideas. We will organize it in one rp in the end, by cutting some ideas and merging some. -- Apple's ideas: What if each god had a theme of some sort? (The main god could be the sun god, maybe one could be the moon, another could be water, etc.) The leaders of each clan would get the suffix that matches their respective god. (Moon god suffix would be moon, water god could be river or storm or smthn, fire god could be flame. Maybe council members could have the sun suffix because they serve the sun god? We can work out specifics later!) As for those who have magic; maybe cats who have the right personality type are 'blessed' by a certain god! Not necessarily the god of the clan they were born in, but whichever one their personality most fits. And then their power would likely be related to the kind of god they were chosen by? Fire god= fire power, water god= water related power, etc. Connecting to that, maybe council members have to be chosen/blessed by the main god, the sun god I was also thinking that there could be gods outside of the main pantheon? Or spirits at the very least. They’d be minor gods, not very well known~ but maybe they could sometimes choose rogues to represent them? As for the main gods! Some suggestions for their themes aka what they’re the god of: Light god and water god are already a thing ig; Main god could be a sun god like i said. In addition we could have a fire god, plant god, earth god, sky god, moon god, and a god of beasts/animals (More minor gods, if we have them, could be subsets of the bigger gods~ ie a snake god or a flower god) Syrup: because the religion is greek mythology-esque, i think there should be a mount olympus-ish place (maybe located at the bottom of a deep ravine, or up a mountain, or on an unreachable island? just somewhere that cats shouldn't be able to get to. or maybe each god could live in a different area? idk), and they believe that the gods live there, and sometimes cats are, like, "i think i'm cool enough to get over there" and it's seen as like, a really brave and cool thing to do and only the most worthy cats can get over there and if you can reach it you're really cool and maybe you win a prize but obviously everyone either dies or turns back because it's not physically possible okay next idea: in the warriors' series it's kind of like "ehhhh you can have friends in other clans but don't get too close to them :/"? it should be like that for the clans within the sides (i.e. cats from clans on the light side can be friends with cats also on the light side - forbidden love is still forbidden though, this part is just for friendship), but being friends (or mates) with someone on the other side is like,,, treason and terrible and the worst crime in existence Sunclaw: Relating to what Apple said, if we're going with the idea that magic cats are cats with the correct personality "blessed" by certain gods, maybe they become the representative of the god in the real world, receiving signs and such from their god? They can have exalted positions and be respected, which could be the base for some really interesting politics (a representative could use their power to influence events, cats that don't like the representative and try and attack them, etc.)
