PILGRIMAGE
A Literate-Advanced Warriors Roleplay

Mod: InsertCleverNameHere

A kind old molly stands at the head of a group of apprentices and kits, a gleaming look of wonder and curiosity in each of their eyes. "Have I told you of our brethren? A rather silly question, I know, but have you heard of the cats who live in the sky, their paws rarely touching dry ground? The cats who do not fear the heavy rain but instead cherish its gifts? The cats who commute so easily across treetops that their empire spans across the entirety of the forest with very little competition? No? Perhaps it is time to learn. Besides, we may soon forget the toughness and grime of the earth ourselves."

Mysterious and elusive, Dewclan has, over years, proven to be a rather interesting troupe of cats. Several generations of dwelling almost exclusively in trees has transformed the previously humble clan into a race of agile, intelligent beings with long legs and a graceful appearance. Living off of the ground has turned them almost wild, their claws never fully retracting and their pelts especially colored to best help them blend into the mottled shadows and highlights made by an overhead canopy of foliage. They make their nests in deep holes carved over generations in the thickest trees, hunt in the branches, and chew leaves for hydration. They have become what many would consider an advanced race of feline, but, oddly enough, have kept a more liberal version of their humble roots as an integral part of their society and continue to use the traditional naming and belief system, aside from a few tweaks.

Apart in nearly every way, Dewclan and Dryclan have rarely communicated with each other, let alone met for any purpose. Thus, in clan conversation, the other clan is almost never mentioned. The clans' ritual solidarity has newly been broken with a tragedy in what was previously Dryclan. Overnight, the canyon territory had become flooded, killing much of Dryclan's proud population. Now, a haggard red molly named Redfern has sparked a pilgrimage to the far-off neighbor, Dewclan, in search of a new home. Will you make it to Dewclan or perish?

It's my fault for not crossing out the Dryclan MCA. You can keep the actual application as it is, I'm just asking you to change the rank of your character. If your character depends on and revolves around a rank, then I think you might have to rethink the basis of your character creation. Focus more on actual personality traits over a rank.

The basis of my character creation was "I want to make this role and will build a background around this role, with the character that I've already had in mind". She works best in that role. Please don't insinuate that my process for character creation is somehow wrong or incorrect because I made a character with a certain role in mind.

In my opinion (which is certainly not gospel), in order to have a dynamic character, they must be flexible. They should fit into any role with minimal adjustment.

You're definitely saying it like it is gospel. Both of the RPs that you run that I've encountered are heavily based on roles, and it makes sense for people to build a character around a certain role. If you're going to be like this, I'd really like you to remove me from your other RP, too, because having the way that I build characters be insulted like this when I've been writing for 15+ years is definitely not something that I want to deal with.

No offense meant, I can understand the disappointment of not getting the role you initially wanted, but sometimes mistakes happen. I know Insert has been fairly busy with offline stuff and probably just didn't have the chance to edit/double-check which positions had already been taken. There's no reason you would have to make a brand new character. Insert is only requesting you make some minor adjustments to Patchpaw so she can be accepted as a normal warrior or apprentice instead.

That could certainly even prove an interesting plot point. Being overshadowed by a younger, in her mind less experienced, apprentice could lead to a potential villain somewhere down the line if that's of any interest to you. I imagine you wanted to join because you thought the plot summary was interesting. Not getting a particular rank shouldn't stop you from joining in the fun. I know it might feel like hard work gone to waste, but it'd be a shame to see you drop out after applying and making a bio.

Tate, it's the principal of being insulted for what I wanted to do with my character. I don't want to be in an RP run by someone who inherently disagrees with, dislikes, or even dislikes me for how I choose to write. If someone goes through that much effort, you should try to compromise with them, especially if it's your mistake, not insult them for not wanting to take a different role. (Because, you know- maybe I don't want to play the 'overshadowed' character, even though that's been suggested to me.)

Personally (and in the nicest way possible) I think you're overreacting a bit o.o We've all had to adjust our character sheets before, I've accidentally deleted paragraphs and paragraphs of a beautiful character sheet with fine detail and had to redo the entire thing because I refreshed the page or something of the like. To say that Insert doesn't like you is a bit far fetched?? All they're asking is to change "Medicine Cat" to "Warrior" and you're in. We can't always get the rank we want in a role-play and believe it or not, as humans, accidents do happen and this is one of those cases. I'm sorry about all your hard work, but you're behaving childishly.

@fortmax ~ But it also makes sense that people are able to make characters that can be put into virtually any role or even no role at all. When reading her bio, it would be easy to place her into a simple apprentice position. I think you might just be being overly defensive. I in no way dislike you or your character and I am not in any way intending to insult you. And I have been trying to compromise with you, but you're just being obstinate. That's fine if you don't want to play the overshadowed character (though I do suggest maybe widening your horizons and trying new character types), but Patchpaw cannot be a Medicine Cat Apprentice. Period. There is no changing my mind on that.

Lol, it's an old gif I did over a year ago. I was just using it as a place holder until I finish the new drawing.

I know I'm late to this roles argument, @Fortmax, but a mistake is a mistake. No insult was made to you for this not being realised, and moulding a character purely around a role is not the ideal way to make such a character. Ways around this have been suggested to you and I, as Tinypaw's mun, would be completely open to her being involved with Patchpaw's backstory if the villain route was chosen here! But your initial outburst and complete misreading of the situation has thrown me, I'm afraid - honestly, I think Insert has been rather reasonable in their dealing with this and mistakes happen. Personal lives come before moderating threads. No-one has insulted you personally. No-one has inherently said they outright disliked your character or your writing. I'm sorry again, but this must be made clear to you.

Coming in like a wrecking ball just to place my interest in joining as soon as I have the time to create a proper entry for the application. Need to finish some 1x1 replies BUT here I am.
A pleasure seeing all the familiar faces, of course.
