Plot
Mothglow has been ShadowClan's only medicine cat for a long time now. She took up the position because there wasn't anyone else at the time, and she's been the only cat in the medicine den other than the sick and injured. This has meant she's had to keep her trips out of camp to mostly what's necessary, gathering herbs that grow nearby and relying on her fellow medicine cats for the things that can't be found in ShadowClan's territory; not venturing much farther than Moonstone trips and Gatherings.
Until now. She's finally settled on an apprentice, and once Eveningkit/paw has started learning the herbs, that frees up her mentor to take more trips outside of the territory to fetch more of them. Namely, back to a place she's been once before: the Twolegplace. A dangerous place, but where she first made friends, and a place that she now recognizes as a haven of valuable herbs. It was too risky before, to venture out on a trip that would have to take multiple days, but with Eveningpaw to take care of the Clan in her absence she can replenish what she needs - in particular, catmint is in short supply; and with whitecough and greencough making their annual appearances something has to be done to restock the herb stores.
This will be a short plot, with just three topics and a few potential roles to fill. None of them are strictly necessary, and they can be filled by NPCs if they have to, but I thought it would be fun to give other roleplayers a chance to join in here. Plots are more fun when there's more of us, right?
Roles
Warrior: A ShadowClan warrior, accompanying Mothglow due to the risk of the journey (likely to her mild annoyance, as she's been there before and they likely haven't) and to help carry back more herbs than she could on her own. Can be any cat, so long as they're a ShadowClan warrior. (KittyKatz, as Shadestrike)
Kittypet: A kittypet living in the Twolegplace, who will have the chance to interact with Clan cats first-paw! And maybe wonder why they're taking flowers from the neighboring gardens. (Yoshachu, as Angel (?))
Twolegplace Rogue (Optional): A rogue living in the Twolegplace. Can be hostile or not - if hostile, could attack Mothglow and the warrior as they travel. (DaisyCurl, as Pebble)
Topics
(These aren't necessarily actual topic titles, they're just meant to get across the vague idea of what this part of the plot is and are subject to change.)
A Dangerous Expedition
Mothglow sets out on her expedition to the Twolegplace, accompanied by the warrior. They make their way across and through the streets and alleyways of Twolegplace, bonding some along the way.
Flower Frenzy
Mothglow and the warrior have arrived at a row of Twoleg gardens, some of which are the dwelling-places of kittypets as well as the home of the rare herbs they've come to collect. Presumably, some of the kittypets aren't necessarily happy to see the plants taken right from their Twolegs' gardens.
Triumphant Return
Mothglow and the warrior return home with the rare herbs, and life in ShadowClan resumes as usual; with Mothglow resuming her place as Eveningpaw's mentor.
Effects of this Plot
In-character, these three topics will take place over a span of about three or four days. This means that for a brief time, both Mothglow and the warrior that accompanies her will be absent from ShadowClan; Eveningpaw will take over medicine cat duties within the Clan while Mothglow is absent, giving ShadowClan a chance to bond with their medicine cat apprentice in the meantime. Out-of-character, the plot shouldn't last long at all - just enough to get through all three topics.
