The story: Humans are extinct. The cats they left behind have formed a society, living together in tribes or "Claws." You play as a cat from any Claw, and you decided who your companions are.

Rules:
1. Choose your Claw. For now it's limited to Sky and Sable.
Sky: they live on the plains. Their warriors are fast and merciless.
Sable: live in an abandoned barn. They pride themselves on being the best at camoflauge.

2. You start out as a hunter or warrior. After that you can work your way up to captain. But each Claw has only four captains. All four can be players.

3. Playing as other creatures:
*you can play as a fox or dog, hawk or even a snake.
*Players can interact with other species. But the foxes will tend to be hostile towards cats.

4. Main Characters: You can request to play as Raul, Cyla, Path or Teo.

Raul: Hunter in Sable. He can also track well and is a fierce fighter.

Cyla: (say Sila) Captain in Sable. She is the youngest-ever captain. Loyal, dependable and observant. Won't tolerate bullying.

Path: Unaligned. He belonged to Sky but broke away. Free to travel between Claws, he knows are there is to know about survival.

Teo: A young Sky warrior. He is a little shy, but fierce and loyal. Best trait is his speed.

Character Profile:

Name:
Claw:
Appearance: (include special marks, general coat color and eye color)
Traits:
Rank:

That's all.

So, there isn't much explanation, is the cats like house cats, wild cats (tigers and such), or what, it is kinda an odd SB too. Not to be rude at all. I'll join, but i need more info.

This sounds interesting, I like it. Can I be Path? Also, what's the general storyline?

Name: Bellatrix (Bella)
Claw: Sky
Appearance: An all black cat. She has green eyes.
Traits: She is outgoing and fun, though she has a hard time making friends in her claw because of her appearance. She is a strong Hunter and enjoys toying with the kill. She never draws it out too much though. She has been known to attack cats from other claws without warning or reason (known to them).
Rank: Hunter

Okay. I will approve both requests. Also, I'd like to play as Teo. Thanks, and here's his profile.

Teo
Sky Claw
Appearance: Black fur and green eyes. Very thin and agile.
Traits: Shy, but loyal. He is very fast and excels at catching rabbits.

Other: He's related to Raul. I won't say more; that will come out in the story.

Name: Midna
Gender: Female
Claw: Sky
Appearance:

Traits: One of the longest runners in her claw due to her abnormally large heart and lungs. Agile hunter but horrible fighter. She's been learning a few fighting moves every once and a while so she can stay safe. Very friendly to everyone except when she hates you. Then she tries to be minimally civil and keeps her distance.
Rank: Hunter

Good. Okay, I'll try this.

Path slunk along the old Man wall. He could smell cats, lots of them. "Well, I just need to see one." he thought.

A hunter crossed his trail. "Me-al, stranger," she said. "Are you perhaps looking for a captain?"

"You're a hunter, right? Can you help me find Raul?"

"That I can. It'll cost you three mice," she teased.

"Done deal," said Path absently.

"He's in the south corner, stalking. Tell him to send those mice my way."

"And who should I say asked for them?"

"Tell him it's Cika. He'll know who I mean." She grinned and added, "Keep the tails."

Path huffed and went his way.

Name: Path
Claw: none (a drifter)
Appearance: Has light brown fur, apart from a few small black spots, and black paws.
Traits: Is a good hunter, and a fierce fighter. Knows a lot of general survival knowledge.
Rank: none

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Path walked down the wall, toward the south corner. His paws made a nearly unnoticable pat as they landed on the soft ground. He caught the three mice he owed Cika as he walked on, and didn't stop until he caught the scent of another cat. Raul was nearby.


***I hope this was ok; sorry it's so short***

Hey, I was getting the story started. Sorry, but that's the way.

PS. Here's a tip: if the "Spirit Cat," or Alissa, appears in your cat's dreams, you're blessed.

Would that I had solid paws! Alisa thought. Raul, where are you?

Take it easy, Spirit-Sister, said Old Barley.

I must warn Rual! she protested in the whispery, ethereal voice of a spirit.

Then come, fly with me!

Alisa shook her head and bounded away. She had to warn Raul, alone.

"Raul, old friend," Path greeted the Sable hunter with the respect expected between two such wonderful friends.

"Ah, Path. I thought I smelled you."

"Of course, you always know when I'm coming." Path sat down the two mice. "I was told that you would deliver those to Cika for me?"

"Yes, I certainly will. Come, talk with me. What brings you to the Sable Claw?" Raul asked, curling up on the soft grass and looking up at Path.


***Out of curiousity, is this story supposed to have a certain plot of some sort?***

Midna trotted through the field on the border of Sable territory. The best rabbits ran through here and she wanted to get some while they were out. She pricked her ears, listening for the kill. Nothing. She sighed and crouched, ready to wait for her next meal.

*Sorry, I got nothing. I'm going to wait for someone to find me or something to happen*
