I'm going to San Diego for a week and the hotel I'm staying in doesn't have Internet connection from my room...but there's a library nearby that has Wi-Fi so if I ever go there I'll be here.

Okay I said you should try not to have cats from different Clans, but ArrowClan and MountainClan don't share borders, so...

Name: Stonepaw
Gender: Male
Age: 9 moons
Physical Description: Small, dark gray tomcat with blue eyes
Personality: Quiet, bold, and tenacious, Stonepaw likes hunting by himself even though it's not safe on the jagged mountain slopes.
Bio: As young Stonekit, Stonepaw was nowhere near as quiet as he was when he was an apprentice. Stonekit was an excited, rambunctious little fellow, his blue eyes always lit with joy, his voice always quivering as he spoke. Stonekit was very popular as a kit.

When Stonekit was apprenticed, he was even more excited and rambunctious than ever. You see, Stonepaw loved to learn new things, and whenever his mentor sent him on a partner assignment, Stonepaw could not help but squeal. It seemed very unlikely that this young, energetic male would ever find a mate, until a young tortoiseshell female named Brownpaw caught his attention, and she was every bit as feisty and excitable as Stonepaw. What started out as a close friendship slowly turned into a growing relationship. The two made up warrior names for each other. Stonepaw had often thought of calling Brownpaw Brownfeather, while Brownpaw thought of calling Stonepaw Stonemask.
However, when he was seven moons old, just as Stonepaw's energy had reached its height, the only thing that could possibly bring it down happened: Stonepaw's beloved friend and possibly future mate Brownpaw died after she tumbled off the edge of a cliff, and her body was never recovered, for the cliff was too steep and there was no safe way down.
Immediately Stonepaw went into a period of deep mourning. It was if all the life had been sapped out of his body. Despite comforting words from his friends and family, Stonepaw never recovered from Brownpaw's loss. From that point on Stonepaw rarely spoke a word, and undertook all training missions for his lost friend. And even now Stonepaw remains silent and grave, constantly padding out of MountainClan's cave camp to the site where Brownpaw's body lies, to this day.

If you want to be a leader, deputy, or medicine cat, you must post your cat profile here and list at least 5 good reasons why that cat would be a good ________ (leader, deputy, or med. cat).

Can I have an OceanClan medicine cat, a ForestClan medicine cat, CoveClan deputy, and TunnelClan leader? If you say only 1 or two, then I choose OceanClan medicine cat and CoveClan deputy.

Don't know why I have a reusing center up? Don't see the point in a reusing center?!? Well I'll give you a few reasons why:

1. Can't think of any creative warrior names? Go to the Reuse section and you might find a profile you like!
2. If a Clan gets too big, I might close entries to that Clan. So if there are any bios in the Reuse section of cats that belong to that Clan (and you want to join that Clan) you can have them!
3. The site is too new for any big-ticket positioned cats to be in the Reuse section now, but when the site gets bigger there might be. Occasionally there might be a chance that a leader, deputy, or medicine cat has to leave the site for some reason or other. In the future, when all 36(!) available Top 3 spots have been taken, if one of them is put in the reusing center, you'll get your big chance to be leader, deputy, or medicine cat of a Clan!

Can I be the dep. of ArrowClan? Wait.. does it have to be a real Warriors name.. or can I use my nickname'Punk' and such?

You can have as many characters as you can MANAGE- hint hint hint, I wouldn't recommend having 100!
Here's the format for your cat profile(s):

Name: Here you put your cat's name. It MUST be a warrior name, like Spottedfur or Leafpelt, unless you're a loner. No kittypets in this RP. Don't use any Twoleg-ish names, like 'Bricktail' or 'Paperpelt'.

Age: Feel free to use years, weeks, and moons. Age must be reasonable!
Type in any age from Newborn to 14 years. Minimum queen age is 1 1/2 years. Anything like 9-14 tears is elder age. For those of you who don't know (or remember) apprentices must be 6 moons to 1 year (12 moons).

Position: Here you write which position your cat has: kit, apprentice, warrior, deputy, leader, medicine cat, queen, or elder. If you are a loner type, 'Loner'.
Clan: You must choose from one of the 12 Clans: MountainClan, DuneClan, CanyonClan, ArrowClan, PrairieClan, LakeClan, TangleCLan, ForestClan, MarshClan, TunnelClan, OceanClan, and CoveClan, or NoClan if you're a loner Very Happy

Physical Description: Describe what the cat looks like here. Example: dark brown tabby with green eyes

Personality: Here type how your cat acts around others. Example: (name) is quiet, shy, and peaceful, but she has wisdom beyond her age.

Bio: Write a biography (at least 8 sentences or a few VERY LONG sentences) about your cat's life. Be
descriptive!

Other: Include anything else you'd like to here.

These are the rules of The Twelve Clans:

1. You must abide by these rules at all times.

2. You must also abide by the warrior code at all times.

3. Respect all members.

4. No swearing. Try to stop yourself before typing in any bad words.

5. No controlling others' characters.
Wrong: "Nice day, isn't it?" Blackpaw meowed. "Yup." His mentor responded.
Right: "Nice day, isn't it?" Blackpaw meowed.

6. Don't post anything unnecessary and annoying, like, "today i rode my bike to the library!"

7. No violence above PG-13 in your RPs. This is a WARRIORS RP, however...so cats can die. However before you kill another person's character you must ask them if it is okay. If someone asks you to kill their character, that's a different story...Killing when not needed is against the warrior code anyway.

8. Try to allow for some failure in battle. I mean a battle scene gets boring if two people type continuously something like:

Player1: Thorntooth lunges at Nightfur.
Player2: Nightfur dodges and jumps onto Thorntooth's back.
Player1: Thorntooth easily manages to shake off Nightfur and pins her to the ground.

And on and on and on and nobody in that example above is going to admit being non-perfect. Also, try to toss in a couple of screams and say stuff to make the battle more real Very Happy

9. Cats can mate, but don't get graphic. And THIS IS NOT A DATING WEBSITE, PERIOD. FAILING TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE WILL LEAD TO YOUR ACCOUNT BEING DELETED IMMEDIATELY AND WITHOUT NOTICE.

10. Don't steal from ANYONE.

11. *loophole-proofer* NO FOLLOWING ANY LOOPHOLES THAT YOU MIGHT FIND IN THIS RULEBOOK! Twisted Evil

12. And...that's pretty much it for now. I'll probably add more later. Reply to this topic if you want to suggest a rule!

If you break one of these rules, you will get a number of warnings according to how bad the crime you committed.
Here is the warning system:

1st Warning: just a typed warning
2nd Warning: banned for a week
3rd Warning: banned for 2 weeks
4th Warning: banned for a month
5th Warning: BANNED FOREVER plus your RP characters are placed in the Reuse section.
