just some important information on the clan ranks and what they do and such.
leader- many would argue that the leader is what pulls the clan together. the leader orders the clan and forges their future through his/her ideas, and is usually the one calling the shots when they are sent to battle or gatherings. the leader takes a lot of stress and can feel pressured by having so much to worry about all the time. out of the entire clan they are the ones that may feel the most need to stick up for the clan and defend its honour against other leaders and clans. they are the light that have been granted nine lives to serve their clan beyond that of a regular warrior. they can die for their clan nine times, because they are the protector.
deputy- another very important position. the deputy assists the leader by giving out orders to the clan. the deputy is usually the one who organizes patrols and sends cats out to borders or to go hunting. they usually participate in many clan activities and it is they who inform the leader of important changes in the clan so the leader can announce it at a meeting. the deputy does not have nine lives, but they are every bit as fierce and proud of their clan as the leader. they would die for it, and if they survive long enough to be leader, they are blessed with nine lives for their service. the deputy is well known but not always respected; some say the deputy is just a leader's plaything.
medicine cat- the medicine cats usually aren't important until they're actually needed. usually unnoticed amongst the other clan cats unless they are giving speeches or healing the clan or sharing starclan's prophecies, they are typically empathetic, caring cats who take their clan mates health in to their responsibilities. to them it is usually all about saving their clan mates lives and trying to predict the future. the medicine cat is almost like a noble warrior with a lack of fighting and hunting skills. still, they can fight if they put their mind to it. medicine cats however, may not take a mate and may not have kits.
elders- the are very loved and taken care of. though sometimes cranky, they are wrapped in a nostalgic, melancholy sort of mind, thinking about the past and longing for their youth to come back while they wait for the day they are to pass on. they tell stories to the younger cats of the clans, and although they may get carried away, the stories are very important to the clan's survival and knowledge of their history. elders love apprentices who do their jobs well. elders are also the cats who carry dead clan mates outside the camp for their proper burial.
queens- queens are well taken care of as they hold the key to their clan's future. they take care of the kits and make sure they survive. the queens may always take their place back as a warrior.
kits- kits are both loved and taken care of. warriors will die to protect their kits as they are the future. innocent, bubbly, and ignorant, kits are the basis of clan life and although they sometimes cause more trouble than good, they are very wondrous.
warriors- warriors are the protectors of the clan and the first in line of duty when they are sent to protect the borders. although sometimes arrogant, warriors will do whatever it takes to protect their young and old, and never think about the end when they have to die. the only thing that matters is now.
apprentices- apprentices are in training to be warriors and are often sent to fight as well. they learn the basis of hunting and fighting and learn the principals of the clan, sometimes by harshness, sometimes by ridicule, and sometimes by practice.
questions and concerns should be sent to me
