Confused about how RP-ing works on this site? Not sure what to do after you've signed up? This page will answer all your doubts! If the FAQ here doesn't answer YOUR question, then post in this chatbox and I will give you an answer A.S.A.P.
What is a third person?/How do I RP?
Where are the places I shouldn't chat?
How long does a gathering/medicine cats meeting last?
When is the gathering/medicine cats meeting?
Can parents mentor their own kits?
How long does a kit have to wait to become an apprentice?
How long does an apprentice train until he/she is a warrior?
Am I allowed to chat at the RP pages?
I want to mentor an apprentice! How do I get to be a mentor?
You may have seen me yelling at people who don't speak in third person. A third person is like a character in a book; for example: Applepaw sprang up and scampered off, glancing nervously at Hawktail.
The RP pages are at the Starpool, the Hunting page, the Patrols page and the Forest (Role-play). You can RP anywhere else, but it will not be taken seriously.
Don't chat at the mates page, the rating box at the home page and the Updates box at the guestbook! You can chat at the RP pages but use parenthesis/brackets (like this) or I will kill you!!!
The gathering/medicine cats meeting last until it is over, this can take one week or more.
Just above the guestbook, after the sign-up runthrough, there is a paragraph on the gatherings and medicine cats meeting for the year. Look for the date closest to when you are look at it. For example, it is on the 13th May that I am looking at the paragraph, and the closest gathering to the 13th May is on 25th May. The next gathering I should take note of is on 25th May.
No, unless there are no other cats in the Clan to mentor their kits. Ever heard the word 'biased'?
A kit has to wait for two months in real time to become an apprentice. However, when that one month is up, and that kit is not adopted by anyone, it will not become an apprentice. If the kit's brothers and sisters have been adopted, then all the kits except for that particular one will become apprentices. The parents will then have to think of a reason for why the kit was not apprenticed (for example, breaking a limb, sick with greencough etc.). If only one kit in the same litter was adopted, then that kit will have to wait until majority of the other kits have been adopted.
Apprentices can only be made warriors after being assessed on hunting and patrolling. However, apprentices must have gone to the gathering at least once, trained battle skills at least once, hunted for fresh-kill and patrolled the border at least twice. The apprentice's mentor will have the final say on whether the apprentice is ready to become a warrior.
You aren't actually allowed to chat there, but if you have something that you HAVE to post there, use brackets or parenthesis.

If you are a warrior and you want to mentor an apprentice, you have to meet the following requirements:
- been a warrior on the site for two months
- be active (come on at least thrice a week)
If there are other warriors older than you and have met the two requirements above, you will have to wait for the next apprentice.
