Newleaf Tears / Swept Away Plots Master Posts

We will need to create one board with two sub-boards: [must be done by seer or pika]

• The Southern Lake {board}
  
  
  This great lake is located several days' journey south of the forest territories. Many of the Clan cats were swept here in the Great Flood, managing to emerge on the West Shore - a narrow shore beside a sheer cliff face - or the East Shore - an evacuated lake-fishing town.
  
  
  
• The West Shore
  
  
  The West Shore consists of a narrow rocky shoreline alongside a steep rock cliff face. The shore gives way to steep walls at the south, whereas north leads upriver. If one were able to climb the rock walls, they would arrive atop a sparsely forested plain. The view is spectacular, but the climb is treacherous.
  
  
  
• The East Shore
  
  
  The East Shore is a lake-fishing town which was evacuated at the beginning of the Great Flood. Abandoned twoleg nests provide adequate but risky shelter, while beyond the town is a half-flooded forest. The East Shore is littered with debris, and most sources of water are contaminated.
  
  
  

Necessary Threads:

• East Shore (Evacuated Fishing Town)
  
  
  
  • Sticky/Announcement [done by suma]
    
    
    
    • contains: description of shore, who has been washed there, potential threats/dangers/ways to die, and sources of prey
      
    • will be updated with links to the Gathering, when it is posted
      
    
    
    
  • Shore Clan Cat Gathering
    
    
    
    • will take place 3-4 days after board opens
      
    • acting as a gathering, cats will all find each other; at southern end of lake, twolegs will use flare that Clan cats mistake for StarClan signal
      
    • all east shore cats meet in empty pasture where signal originated
      
    •  StarClan will give medicine cats sign to travel north to twoleg bridge to find missing clanmates and home
      
    
    
    
  • Shore Clan Cat Journey
    
    
    
    • clan cats must travel through twolegplace
      
    • they will encounter a twoleg and two dogs; they will have to fight
      
    • thread can end when enemies are chased away
      
    • Twoleg has a slingshot; will flee the battle after receiving three hits from Clan cats
      
    • Dogs will stay: one fights to half health, other fights to death
      
    • Clan cats continue on to bridge
      
    
    
    
  
  
  
• West Shore (Rocky Shore and Cliff Face)
  
  
  
  • Sticky/Announcement [done by suma]
    
    
    
    • contains: description of shore, who has been washed there, potential threats/dangers/ways to die, and sources of prey
      
    • will be updated with links to the Gathering, when it is posted
      
    
    
    
  • Shore Clan Cat Gathering
    
    
    
    • will take place 3-4 days after board opens
      
    • acting as a gathering, cats will all find each other; at southern end of lake, twolegs will use flare that Clan cats mistake for StarClan signal
      
    • all west shore cats will travel as far south as they can, being stopped when the shore ends and there is only cliff wall in front of them
      
    • StarClan will give medicine cats sign to travel north to twoleg bridge to find missing clanmates and home
      
    
    
    
  • Shore Clan Cat Journey
    
    
    
    • clan cats must climb the rock wall, skirt the shoreline, or swim along the shoreline to reach flat land
      
    • they will be ravaged by a sudden wind/rainstorm, losing a few more before making it to the bridge
      
    
    
    
  
  
  
• Twoleg Bridge (Large, Sturdy Wooden Bridge)
  
  
  
  • Reuniting of the Clans
    
    
    
    • acting as a gathering, the cats will all reunite
      
    • they will all, of course, return to the forest
      
    
    
    
  • Journey Back to the Forest
    
    
    
    • shortly after returning to forest, which is now a bit wet and littered with debris but recovering, receive another sign
      
    • dogs have trapped other survived Clanmates in mountains
      
    • Returned-Shore Cats go to the mountains to lure the dogs away
      
    • they meet Highstones/Mountain cats, who have run from a Sharptooth down the mountain
      
    • Dogs and Sharptooth fight to death
      
    • clan cats all escape together
      
    
    
    
  
  
  

TL;DR

In this time of dire need and uncertainty for the Clan cats, showing strength and faith in the warrior code and Clan heritage will prove invaluable to their survival. Setting aside Clan boundaries, [West: Leopardstar of ThunderClan, Mintwhisker of SkyClan, and Scorchclaw of RiverClan] [East: Scorchstar of ShadowClan and Amberdawn of SkyClan] may choose to carry out ceremonies for kits and apprentices in the stead of their own Clan's leadership. 

While there are five Clans, they all live under one sky and one code, and surviving as one Clan may mean the difference between returning home or causing the extinction of Clan life. Despite this, SkyClan cats may only receive their ceremony through the SkyClan leadership due to its tight-knit nature.

Apprentice Ceremony Request

Though a cat who may not be your leader might give you your ceremony, you will be given a mentor from your Clan who is also on your shore.

Moonstone Journey Fulfillment


Since the Clan cats at the lake do not have access to the Moonstone, this requirement will be resolved a different way: though they have been swept far from their territory, they have lost loved ones along the way. These newly-joined StarClan warriors have created something like a bridge from the hunting grounds of their ancestors to the survivors on the Southern Lake. 

StarClan has not forgotten their descendants and will visit young apprentices in their dreams to give them encouragement that the warrior way of life is still worth learning and protecting. 

This will not require a medicine cat, nor a great journey: Having faith during these trials is the ultimate test.

You will create a thread of your character going to sleep, and then you must have another roleplayer post with their StarClan cat [we recommend finding one on this list but many more have died since the flood]. This must be a minimum of four posts total - two per roleplayer - as it is still meant to be a requirement to fulfill!

Moonstone Journey Fulfillment


Since the Clan cats at the Tribe do not have access to the Moonstone, this requirement will be resolved a different way: though they have traveled far from their territory, StarClan warriors and the Tribe of Endless Skies have long held spiritual bridges between the skies.

This will not require a medicine cat, nor a great journey: Having faith during these trials is the ultimate test.
