So this idea is basically going to boil down to "Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock."

Love triangles are fun and all, but why not take it a step further? We'll be playing the original four Clans in the Old Forest territories, partly to make it somewhat more simple and partly because I don't care to make up more Clans right now. I hope there will be a plot besides the romance? Maybe it can just be some smaller plots/battles that involve two Clans rather than all four. Possibilities are open to us. If you have ideas I would definitely love to hear them!

I won't be accepting more than 5 players besides myself. Maybe in the future, but don't get your hopes up.

As I'm a pretty literate roleplayer myself, I'm really looking for other literate people to write with. The minimums I expect from you during roleplay:
At least 1 paragraph (5 sentences) per character. Please don't flesh things out with purple prose. Your character doesn't have to interact with another every single post, but they if they're not they should be off doing something that could further a larger plot.
Multiple characters! Really, at least 2 would be ideal. One character would be involved in the polygon and the other(s) would be members of different Clans (or the same Clan if that's your thing) to really flesh out the world and give everything more depth. This allows for many plotting opportunities outside of the polygon.
Proper grammar. This is should be a given. Keep wolfspeak at a minimum if have to use it at all. I can find a link for appropriate Clan terms if needed.
Don't godmode. Again, kinda already implied. Don't make your cat dodge every attack in a fight, or land a hit every single time. This goes for the polygon as well: your cat can't be an uber god of love. They can certainly be flirty, but not everyone is going to appreciate that aspect of them.

Speaking of characters, here's the form! Pretty straight forward:
Name:
Age: at least 20 moons preferred
Sex: Male or Female. You can add in a preferred Sexuality here as well, but if not defined assume straight.
Clan: ThunderClan, RiverClan, WindClan, or ShadowClan. Add Rank here or right after if something other than a warrior.
Appearance: You don't have to have a picture, but you must be able to find a non-edited image with markings similar to your cat's appearance, and link to it as an example (even if it's not the exact coloration). A simple face shot can work for a facial marking, but otherwise it has to be full body. Scars, torn ears, short tails, cataracts, and things of that nature are excluded, but I reserve the right to pick over oddly/specifically shaped scars. ie: a lightning bold on the forehead. Near the end of this post will be some notes and rules regarding naming breeds of cat and tortie toms.
Personality: You can fill this out either in paragraph form or a list. If list, please name at most 3 strengths and at least 3 weaknesses. Explaining the items in said list is preferred but not necessary.
History/Relations: Not strictly required, but enjoyed. Please keep in mind your character's age and their potential accomplishments. ie: a 20 moon old warrior isn't going to have an apprentice more than about 6 moons old, if they do at all.

At this point in time, you only need to post a form for your main character. AKA, the cat that will be involved in the polygon.

On cat breeds: Cats in the warriors world are feral. They are totally wild-bred, with no human interaction. This means that unless they just jumped over their Twoleg's fence, there is not a chance in hell that cat can be called any one specific breed. And a Twoleg is not going to just let their very expensive pure-bred ragdoll roam around in their yard unsupervised. If your cat has Siamese-like markings they are not a Siamese cat. "Siamese" is the name of a specific breed. This pattern is called colorpoint, and it comes in lots of variations. It is a recessive trait, which means it is not likely to pass down to their children, but it's certainly possible. Also be aware that colorpoint cats are all born 100% white. This means that they'll usually have names regarding those white coats. A colorpoint cat's markings darken as they get older, meaning a seal point elder (what you probably think of when someone says "Siamese") will have very, very dark points and a creamy brown body. All colorpoint cats will have blue eyes even as adults.
Please, please, please message me if you are having any difficulties! I am more than happy to help with appearances, personalities, and traditional names!

On tortie toms: I could go into a mile-long spiel about how tortoiseshells, calicos, and torbies are determined genetically, but I'll save you the headache. It boils down to any male kitten that is born with both red and black colors has a genetic anomaly. This mix up in their chromosomes means they are VERY liable to become ill, deathly so. Without human intervention, such a kitten often won't live past the first few months. If it does, it will continue to be sickly and weak for the rest of its life. I'm not sure of the exact odds, but such a cat is very unlikely to be fertile. Because of all the reasons listed, I am not likely to accept a red and black tom cat. You can try and convince me though. I would prefer it if you PMed me before posting said character's application.
