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.
Topic 3 (open)This topic will be open to all of ShadowClan. 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. 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?
Provide links to relevant topics*: The plot topics will be linked as they are started. Topic 1: The Seeds of Resentment Topic 2:What's Been Sown Topic 3: Burningwing's trial Topics that provide additional context and development towards the plot will be linked here too: ・FoundlingBurningwing and Cicadapaw oppose Shykit joining shadowClan ・Mending Broken EgosCicadapaw bullies Shypaw ・For Crimes UnansweredBurningwing is warned of more series consequences
Why should this plot be approved?: This plot is well thought out and has the excited cooperation of four members, whose characters will develop through the plot. It could also be fun for any member with a character in ShadowClan.
