Plot Name: ...
Seeds of Resentment? Seeds of Suspicion?Clans involved: ShadowClan
Characters Directly Involved: Shypaw (isla), Cicadapaw (MediocreCrisis), Burningwing (Tara), Murkystrike (Mosspelt)
(shypaw's mentor)Will there be code-breaking?: yes, the #1 rule: defend your clan
Explain your Plot: Burningwing and Cicadapaw almost let a new apprentice with outsider origins, Shypaw, die to a predator.
topic 1 (closed) Shypaw accompanies Burningwing and Cicadapaw for hunting training while her mentor is occupied elsewhere. Shypaw’s bright white fur is spotted by a predator bird and she is attacked. She doesn’t make a sound. Burningwing watches from the shadows without lifting a claw to help because of her outsider origins and convinces Cicadapaw not to help her either. Shypaw is losing the fight until a raven swoops in to fight off the predator, which is close to the raven’s nest. Shypaw has a throat wound and it looks like she’s dying, but Burningwing and Cicadapaw have second thoughts and they rush her back to camp.
topic 2 (open) This topic will be open to all of ShadowClan. Burningwing and Cicadapaw come back to camp with a heavily wounded new apprentice and no wounds on themselves. Murkystrike will be Very Angry with Cicadapaw and Burningwing, mostly Burningwing.
NEW IDEA topic 3 (open) Burningwing's trial The consequences are of course determined by ShadowClan's leadership, Flintstar (Honey Badger) and/or Murkystrike (Mosspelt). But as suspicion and anger grow within ShadowClan, it feels only right to hold a trial for Burningwing maybe not for Cicadapaw because he's still a child? This topic will be open to all of ShadowClan. As Shypaw recovers, she begins to speak and is asked to testify before the Clan with Flintstar and Murkystrike as judges and the
(adult) members of the Clan as the jury. Shypaw does not think Burningwing and Cicadapaw were there when the predator attacked her. She didn't make a sound, which explains their lateness to the scene. She knows that eventually, after the raven swooped in and caused a louder commotion, Cicadapaw and Burningwing stepped in as she was bleeding out. Asked if she believes Burningwing and Cicadapaw defended her, their clanmate, she will say YES... potentially saving Burningwing from exile.
How will this impact the characters/clans involved?: It will be development for the characters directly involved. It will also impact and involve all of ShadowClan. It could cause a moral divide in the Clan between those who trust Burningwing and Cicadapaw and those who don't, those who suspect clan members with outsider blood are in danger and want to protect them and those who agree with blood purity.
...how will ShadowClan survive if we are divided?
