Plot Name: where stars tread
Clans involved: ShadowClan, starclan ig lol
Characters Directly Involved: Frostpaw (myself), anyone with a StarClanner who wants to sign up :D
Will there be code-breaking?: no
Explain your Plot: Frostpaw has been sickly from a young age, and, having rolled the highest severity sickness possible, has been hit hard. Hovering on the edge between life and death, occasionally she wakes only to find herself in starry fields. cue talking to some starclanners and learning a lot about the history of the forest. eventually, when the cure is discovered, she starts to recover and no longer starwalks.
How will this impact the characters/clans involved?:
ShadowClan will be worried about one of their apprentices, thus adding further weight to the sitewide sickness plot.
Frostpaw will learn a lot about the history of the forest and events that may have been forgotten (eg the Mist, Newleaf Tears, etc).
She will not get any prophecies or anything like that unless staff would like her to; this is mostly for her to learn more about the Clans’ history (which should be fun so she can tell other cats about past events that have been forgotten)
Frost will also start to have a weird perspective on life and death from spending so much time in the stars as an apprentice. The plan is for her to start using disabled stats after this, the combo sickness+dreamwalking? having taken too much of a toll on her health.
Provide links to relevant topics*: none yet, will have a signup for people who want to have her talk to their StarClanners
Why should this plot be approved?:
1. This is an opportunity for some old history to be brought back into the light! Past sitewides and events can be easily forgotten, both OOC and IC, but this would allow Frost to slowly share what she’s learned; maybe not in dedicated history lessons, but rather in passing observations, comparisons, and such. Maybe in the future her learning can have a more direct impact, but for now, it’s just to bring it back into the light.
2. Having one of their apprentices linger on the edge between life and death would definitely spur ShadowClan to take the sickness very seriously.
3. People get to play their StarClanners! Apart from Moonstones, there isn’t much one can do with one’s StarClanners. This would give people an opportunity to bring back their old characters for one last topic, just to tell the stories of their lives (and deaths). The signup would be open for anyone, and I feel that people would probably appreciate the chance to play their characters for a little longer than a Moonstone allows.
4. It’d be fun?
Open to any readjustments that would be deemed necessary by staff!
