News
This site has been recently made. In The Shadows is a advanced Warrior cat RPG, meaning please no newbies.
So, yes, it's about Warriors, but what else? Well, this site is called In The Shadows because recently the sun has been less bright, and more clouds have been in the sky. Gatherings have been hard because the full moon always gets covered. So, without the Clans knowing much on what the others have been doing, the cats have become restless. Clans have been attacked for no reason but suspition. Why is the weather being weird? No cat knows. Some think it's StarClan, and for some reason they're angry at the Clans. And now some leaders and medicine cats have received distressing dreams about suffering cats. What have they done wrong?
Here are the rules and info for In The Shadows.... Info is mostly for those not too familiar with Warriors, and rules, well, every forum needs a set of rules. Please read Moderator: `F.r.e.e.z.e|heart`

ThunderClan Camp (1 sub-board) The ThunderClan camp, where all ThunderClan cats come to sleep, and practically live. It is inside a dense woodland forest, where the trees are so tall they are un-climbable, and the sky is hardly seen. ThunderClan hunts mostly things like mice, thrushes, and squirrels. The leader sleeps under an ancient fallen log covered in long, stringy moss.
Towering Oak The tallest and oldest tree in ThunderClan's forest. It's truck is very smooth and hard to climb. It's branches seem to almost touch the sky and sweep the clouds. Many elders boast in their day, they climbed to the very top when they were a mere apprentice, which is, of coarse, not true at the slightest. However, if a cat does climb high, a fall can be fatal.

Crystal Stream A stream running through the ThunderClan forest into the river. It has a fresh blue tint, ensuring it's safe to drink. It is so shallow that a kit couldn't possibly drown in it. This is a problem in leafbare, for then the stream water evapourates, leaving less. Since there's not much as there is, this causes a lack of water in for ThunderClan. The other stream is close to ShadowClan territory.
0
0
Forest The famed place where ThunderClan lives. The great dense forest, full of little prey. This forest has much undergrowth, which is a good and bad thing. It helps by providing better stealth for catching prey. But, if you were to step on a twig, the prey would surely flee. Most trees aren't too climbable, but some with low branches are.
ShadowClan Camp (1 sub-board) The ShadowClan camp may be the truly only dry place in the marsh where ShadowClan lives. A island of dirt, surrounded by long grass and reeds, and some brambles for protection. The leader's den is a hollowed rock, dug into by a now dried up stream.

0
Mangled Willow A willow just on the edge of ShadowClan territory. It's large and ancient. Since it's a weeping willow, its leaves grow on vines and droop down. It gets its name because many apprentices get tangled in its many vines. It has no real use, except that prey sometimes gathers there. Every apprentice must learn to bite through willow vines before becomming warriors.
0
0
Swampy Creek A creek creating the border between ThunderClan and ShadowClan territory. It's not the most clean water; it usually carries swamp depris, such as twigs and moss, along with it and has a sickining green tint. ShadowClan relies on other water, since this water has been known to cause great stumach pains. Prey comes here, however.
0
0
Marsh The marsh where ShadowClan lives. The ground is very wet, and if not, it's muddy. A white mist hovers over the territory, and you can see deformed and bending trees scattered about. Because of this, most cats have problems invading ShadowClan territory because most cats (except RiverClan) can't manuver well in water.

{WindClan} The Moors
WindClan Camp (1 sub-board) The WindClan camp is possibly the only sheltered place in the moors. A lone tree, not very well grown, looms over the camp, and tall grass surrounds it. Over time, the cats have curved the grass, making it a shelter. Not much of one, but still well enough. The cats boast on how they can take any weather because of this.

Thunderpath WindClan is the only Clan haveing to deal with the roar of monsters on Thunderpath. Thankfully, it is not near the camp, so kits, elders and queens can sleep in peace. This is the most dangerous place in the WindClan territory, since monsters never watch for cats and often kill them. However, there is not much use to cross it, because there's nothing on the other side.

Twoleg Farm A Twoleg building on the edge of the territory. Some loners live there, but not many rouges. Sometimes the Twolegs release dogs at night, but they never go far into WindClan territory, but still, all apprentices can't patrol at night unless a warrior acumpanies them. The nest has a tempting smell of plump mice, but WindClan cats know better than to hunt there.
0
0
Moors Where WindClan lives. Rabbits are their main diet, so instead of building muscle on their chests, WindClan builds muscle in their legs to give them amazing speeds. This allows them to easily catch the rabbits that are speedy aswell. No cat can outrun a WindClan cat. The moors are basically a plain, not much to it. There is no place to hide behind, except long grass, so this makes it difficult to hunt.

{RiverClan} The Water
RiverClan Camp (1 sub-board) The RiverClan camp is surrounded by water. It is not sumerged in water, however, it's actually quite dry. Especially the nersery, so kits don't get a sickness. RiverClan is really the only Clan that truly loves water, some cats can't stand the roar of the river, but these cats enjoy it.

Reedbeds Reeds are everywhere in RiverClan. They help to cover the cats if they're hunting land prey, which isn't usually the case, since fish is a number one. But the reeds give home to water voles and other small aquatic animals, providing good food if the fish start to run scarce. Some queens use the reeds for lining their nests for their kits.
The Pond A small pond, created by a runoff of the river. Fish don't come here, but many cats do. Why? This is where apprentices learn to swim. Swimming is key to RiverClan, it's what it's known for, so every apprentice must learn to swim. The pond has three levels of depth, and the deepest part a apprentice cannot touch the ground with their paws.

River Why RiverClan is named what it is. The river carries fish most of the year, leafbare is doesn't have much at all. That's when RiverClan struggles. The river is deep, and pretty fast. Another cat could drown, but never a RiverClan cat. The river often freezes in leafbare and sometimes leaf-fall, making it a good crossing into RiverClan for an attack. But they'll be ready.

{StarClan} The Stars
StarClan Cats StarClan is home to fallen warriors, leaders, apprentices, elders, every Clan cat who has died. Now they live in Silverpelt, a cluster of stars in the sky. Cats of StarClan often visit leader's and medicine cat's dreams, giving them prophecies and warnings.

Memorial This is where Clan cats can remember and mourn for dead cats now a part of StarClan. It is a rock pointing upwards to the sky, usually facing Silverpelt. Cats sometimes stay there all night and gaze at the stars, missing their loved one, or friend, or whomever had died.

The Moontree A black and dead tree atop a hill next to WindClan. The Moontree really just looks like a ugly tree, but in fact, it is how StarClan comunicates to other Clans. If a leader or medicine cat put their nose on its roots, they imediatly go into slumber. Then, in their dreams, StarClan speaks. The tree has always been dead, yet never fallen or decomposed, possibly the work of StarClan.

The Dark Forest Deep below StarClan in Silverpelt looms the chilling Dark Forest, where cats who never met the warrior code were sent to when they died. It is a lonely place, and there is no light. StarClan tried to stop Dark Forest cats from entering living cats' dreams, but it hasn't worked. Beware when you dream: it could be a Dark Forest cat.

{SkyClan} The Forgotten
The Camp Not offcially the SkyClan camp, since SkyClan has too few to call itself a full Clan. The camp is in a gorge, surrounded by towering walls of rock. But since SkyClan has great leaping abilities, they can easily get out. SkyClan is far away from the other Clans, so it has no fear of attack. But they do fear that they'll never be a Clan again.
0
0
The Shining Cave A cave in the SkyClan gorge filled with glowing moss. It is where SkyClan comunicates with StarClan, since they are so far away from the Moontree. The cave has some water in it, and drinking it will put you to sleep as you dream with StarClan. It's hardly visited, however, since currently SkyClan has no leader/medicine cat.

Gorge Where SkyClan now lives. Once they lived with the other Clans, but Twolegs invaded their territory and drove them out. They could not return. Some loyal cats decided to find a new place to live, while others, angry that the Clans didn't care that they left, decided that the Clan life wasn't for them, and became rouges or kittypets.

{Other Areas}
Four Stones Four Stones is an area in the center of all the Clan territories. It is where the Clans hold their Gathering. There are four huge boulders surrounded by a bunch of sycamores. The leaders and deputies go on the boulders while the rest of the Clans go underneath. Four Stones has been around for uncountless years for the Clans. Even StarClan doesn't know when they weren't there.

Twoleg Place This is where Twolegs like to built their nests. No Clan cats go near, for Twolegs either don't like forest cats around, or have dogs in their gardens. Kittypets are really the only cats there, and no warrior is allowed to be tempted to become one, for it's against the warrior code. Rogues sometimes are around there aswell.
