see that nifty news sidebar? well, the newest bit of news goes there (sometimes just a short summary there if our news is long) and the older news is posted here in threads for discussion.

got an interesting forum game? post it here or play one of the games another member has posted for us to pass the time between posts with!

your bio has been accepted? great! it's been moved here for future reference. y'know, for when some pretty she-cat is looking for that handsome tom of yours (or vice versa, haha). bios are arranged by clan / group.

so you want to know who's who in your clan? maybe you want to know the cat count per clan before you make your cat? each clan has a thread here that tells the latest news, the important threads going on, and mentor / apprentice lists.

so your cat has a long lost sister that they supposedly killed? great aunt bertha that secretly gave birth to your lover (woah, incest!)? if you need someone to play a cat essential to your cat's life, post it here! i'm sure someone will come and help you out.

astralclan cats made their beautiful home in a peaceful, vibrantly veridian, secluded meadow. a tiny stream runs through the corner of the camp, setting aside the medicine cat's den from all the rest of camp. these cats have dens inside large hollow trees, except for the medicine cat, who resides in an abnormally badger den. squirrels, voles, and mice are the main source of nutrition for the clan, but the occasional frog is common. queens must be cautious with their kits around the stream.

cosmicclan lives higher than the other clans, and closer to the glittering cave that the clans use to contact celestialclan in the mountains. their camp is colder than the rest, and you can find their dens in a series of fissures in the ground. the abysses are not too deep, and tend to mainly be quite shallow and easy to navigate. the cats chose this location for their camp for the simple reason that the area is out of the terribly chilly mountainous wind. hares and large mice can be found close to camp for food.

astralclan territory begins where sunburstclan's leaves off and continues all the way to the mountains and the edge of the four clan's entire territory together. various sizes of marshes and bogs decorate this clan's lush green land full of all kinds of trees, bushes, and plant life. wildflowers can be found throughout the territory in all kinds of odd places. birds somehow manage to fly across the darkened skies as they pour out the rains that drench the territory nearly every day. according to astralclan lore, a day of good weather is considered a bad omen and a warning of things to come. all types of fish hide away in even the smallest of the puddles waiting to feed even the tiniest of the apprentices, as most are trained in the spots near the bogs that has mud causing their feet to stick down and teach them to use this to their advantage.

cosmicclan territory is obviously quite cold. snow covers the land year round except for a short while in early spring which is why these cats are only allowed to breed in late winter. any births during another time of year could end deadly for all the kits and the mother. these snobby cats seem far away from the rest, but cosmicclan is actually quite close to astralclan and sunburstclan. each of these clans are just a careful climb away. apprentices are taught in an area with deep snow drifts perfect for careful hiding. falcons, low-flying birds, and thickly furred rodents are this clans prey and can be found all across their mountainous territory. a very, very small stream runs up from sunburstclan and supplies these cold weather resistant cats with fresh water.

eclipseclan territory is packed full of tall trees fueled by the fertile soil from ashfall during a volcanic eruption hundreds of years ago. from this eruption, large igneous rock deposits and patches of hard, dried lava can be found throughout the territory amonst all of the trees. plant life is quite abundant throughout the land, but there is a small stream running off from the river in sunburstclan which feeds into the small pool that supplies the cats with water in camp. prey of all kinds can be found in the heavily wooded areas here. mice, voles, birds, squirrels, snakes, and pretty much every small animal that can possibly be consumed by cats. usually the tall trees block out the sun, supporting the clan's name by eclipsing light from the ground level living creatures.
