Tribe Of Whispers Ranking Order
Chiefess
The chief is the head of their Tribe. The word of this leader is law, proclaimed by years of tradition and all other tribe cats must obey them, even visitors. They have their own den, and are assisted by the Warden in their tasks. They are responsible for the whole Tribe, calling meetings, appointing cats to new ranks, and making the toughest decisions.
Warden
-
The Warden is the second in command of the tribe, chosen by the chief to be their successor. This cat is responsible for organizing daily patrols for the Tribe, such as hunting patrols and border patrols. If the chief is unable to lead temporarily due to sickness, being away from the territory, etc., then the warden would take over for that time. The warden will still keep their warrior name, at least until they become leader.
Shaman
-
These physical and spiritual healers are the few who treat diseases and injuries, and who receive directions and guidance from the spirits of those who have passed on. They have their own den in the cavern where they sleep, store herbs, and treat wounded or sick cats.
Elites
An Elite warrior is a warrior who is more experienced than the others, and handpicked by the Chief. These warriors are given respect, and are often asked for advice by the Tribe leader. Elites are also tasked with leading patrols.
Warriors
Warriors have been trained in the ways of fighting and hunting in addition to the ways of the tribe tradition. They are charged with the responsibility to feed and protect those cats who are elderly or unable to spend time out of camp.
Ancients
-
The elder individuals who have served their group well and now are under the tribe’s wing. Ancients are well-respected and play a big role in how the tribe functions today.
Trainees
-
Trainees are cats six moons or older, training to be a Warrior or Healer, and becomes one once their mentor or Clan leader thinks they have learned enough or proved they are worthy of becoming their successor. Tasks of apprentices include training with their mentors, going hunting, border patrol with other cats of their Clan, and looking after the elders, mostly taking ticks out of their pelts and collecting moss. This is different for Healer trainees.
The Expecting
-
A cat that is expecting or has recently given birth to a litter of kits. When cats become Expectings, they give up their title and duties as a warrior. However, they become a warrior again once their kits have been apprenticed. Some cats, though, prefer to stay in the nursery even after their kits have become apprentices. These cats are known as permanent Expecting, and take in foster kits when required.
Kits
-
A kit is a cat under the age of six moons who is still living in the nursery with their mother and littermates. Kits stay in the nursery together with their mother who nurses them and takes care of them for six moons.
