| Plot Name: Make Love, Not War Clans involved: Every Clan, but starts in WindClan and RiverClan Characters Directly Involved: Woolykit (Snickerdoodle), Willowkit (Kari), Sandykit (Lapis), Sagekit (Cait), Grebepaw (Oryx), Hickorypaw (KittyKatz), Nightpaw (Holly), Peach (KittyKatz)
Will there be code-breaking?: There won't be any code breaking off the bat, there may be FRs later down the line stemming from LoveClan but these aren't an inherent part of the plot itself. Explain your Plot: (The plot starts after all kits involved are apprenticed) Woolypaw and Willowpaw, at their first ever Gathering and having little knowledge of StarClan, become friends and discuss what they think about the afterlife, spirituality and all the normal things children talk about. By the end of the gathering, they both have the impression that their version of things is a lot better than some dusty old cats in the sky. They return to their Clans and spread the word, unwittingly generating a lot of interest among the younger cats who haven't experienced or heard much of StarClan due to the previous sitewide. By the next gathering, quite a lot of apprentices hold these beliefs of universal love and giving. They proceed to tell even more cats from other Clans about it and it develops into something of a religious movement(read: cult). They hold meetings reminiscent of Gatherings (albeit a lot less official); they develop rituals, words and rules of their own; and give each other code names to be used when talking about LoveClan(as they decide to call it).
How will this impact the characters/clans involved?: A whole generation of cats grew up without StarClan, this will give them something much more 'concrete' to believe in and will change a lot of cats' beliefs about the afterlife. There may be weird looks and rumors around the Clans as a rather large number of cats start acting weird and sneaking out to go to LoveClan 'gettogetherings'. LoveClan cats will most likely raise their kits on their beliefs, further establishing the group in the Clans. LoveClan will accept non-Clan cats, which may cause tension for the Clans as well.
Provide links to relevant topics*: N/A, all plotting thus far has been done on the Discord server. If the plot is approved, a proper sign up page will be made.
Why should this plot be approved?: The religious beliefs of many cats on WCC are in tatters at the moment because of the sitewide. LoveClan is a seemingly harmless alternative and a natural progression for cats who have lost all hope in StarClan. This plot will be great fun for rp'ers with younger cats, which includes newer people who may appreciate a big welcoming group for their characters to take part in. It'll offer lots of roleplay opportunities, for example how LoveClanners will react to their Moonstone Journey and other StarClan-based rituals. People will be encouraged to keep their characters alive and active for longer because they'll have something new to do outside of gatherings and reqs. It will improve Clan relations for future generations, resulting in a higher likelihood for an era of peace among the Clans. Although LoveClan may not last that long, bonds will be made within it that will change cross-Clan dynamics for a long time to come especially if LoveClan members have kits (or impressionable apprentices). |
