ORIGINS OF THE CLANS
I. CHAPTER
Long before there were Clans, a colony of feral cats resided within the marshes. They were united under one leader, a tomcat named Hare Whiskers who led his cats fairly and ensured the weak were protected and the hungry were fed. Hare Whiskers and his second-in-command, a she-cat named Briar, reigned over the marshes in peace for many moons. After he passed, Briar stepped up to lead the cats in his stead.
About a year before his passing, a tomcat named Rain led a colony of his own into the nearby pine forest. Rain himself had been a kittypet before his owners died and he’d learned to fend for himself. Rain took in those like himself — the lost, the desperate, the broken – and nurtured them, fostering loyalty through kindness. His cats began to share the hunting grounds Briar’s group had always had to themselves, and tensions began to spark between the two colonies.
The first attack came from a marsh group she-cat. Some of Rain’s cats had met their hunting patrol in the oak forest between their territories, and blood was shed over lost prey. Rain was disturbed over what he saw as an unprovoked attack and entered the marsh to meet with Briar. No agreements were reached, and anger began to fan the flames on both sides.
After weeks of hurling insults and drawing blood, Briar took things into her own paws and called her colony to war. Though there were those in the marsh group who balked at the idea of attacking the other cats, many were eager to rid themselves of Rain and his perceived ‘kittypet colony.’ Briar and her first wave of soldiers met cats from the pine forest while hunting and the battle began.
II. CHAPTER
Rain and his cats marched to Fourtrees to fight for their homes and their right to live peacefully in the forest. Cats died valiantly alongside their groupmates, and blood was shed on both sides. It wasn't until a marsh group cat named Distant Cicada killed Rain in the heat of battle that the fighting began to cease on both sides.
From the stiffening bodies of their fallen comrades, soundless spirits began to rise. Cats cried out to them, but they remained quiet until Rain himself, on starry paws, delivered a prophecy to the cats: “In order to keep the peace and survive, you must grow and spread like the leaves of the creeper vine.” He instructed all cats present to return on the evening of the full moon so they could decipher the prophecy together.
At Fourtrees on the night of the full moon, Cicada deciphered the prophecy: that two groups must become five in order to maintain peace and survive. One by one, five cats rose to appoint themselves leaders of their favored territories. Soot of the marsh group declared herself leader of WindClan; Distant Cicada of the marsh group staked his claim over RiverClan; Ember of the pine group spoke for ThunderClan, and a former kittypet named Blaise and Briar herself decided to remain in the pine forest and the marshes respectively as SkyClan and ShadowClan.
The groups returned to their homes – but only to regroup and discover where their loyalties lay. From there, history is written as the Clans themselves are born.

AVA
Hey, I'm Ava! I'm a moderator of Tabby Tales and a long time warrior cats roleplayer of 10+ years. My roots come from Animal Jam where I made my very first character, but I'd eventually discover forum roleplay in 2016. I fell in love and found a safe place in this community which has led me to being here today!
I have "needs to touch grass" syndrome so I'm almost always online. If you have any questions or are in need of a pal don't hesitate to shoot me a DM!
