TERRITORY
the skyclan territory is that of a plateau, along with this it also has a river valley with various hills.
in the dead center is an underground tunnel that eventually leads down to lava.
a large rock closes off the camp that of which small animals such as ferrets, rats, snakes, and common animals can get past.
even though the valley can make it difficult to defend, their camp is easily concealed.
the camp is an underground metropolis where this entire clan resides!
they have learned to be silent and diligent, to hide their underground city.
above them is a large lake which can be gotten to by a river.
this lake is said to be the missing atlantis but it is very much debated.
of course, it is literally an underground carved by humans and skeletons of the humans themselves or even their pets are there.
above on the lake's waterfront is a massive library, it is made of cobble stones and can be dated back to 1 CE//AD
the brass plates on the side of this building say 'old times' and 'new times'
it is believed that this is referring to looking into the future and past.
RELIGIONS AND TRADITIONS
the asomnoi are the new religion of skyclan, which are always looking for respect. requiring a sacrificial fire every few moons, where everyone puts something in the fire, something that is rather special to them. they are a group of three gods: ninani, ulara, and xyan. although the ninani and ulara, the females, outweigh xyan, the male, they reign with equal power. in this heaven, ninani is the ruler of the skies, ulara is the ruler of the ground, and xyan is the ruler of living things. xyan is the strongest, as he protects anything living, and when the living body dies, the spirit becomes part of xyan, leaving a small amount of spirit to allow reincarnation. each time the spirit's mortal body dies, the spirit fragment becomes smaller, until the spirit is fully in xyan. ninani protects all those flying the skies, and controls all the weather, and punishes the clans with her disasters, and praises them with good weather. ulara works with ninani to help praise and punish skyclan. she also helps slow enemies and quicken the feet of skyclan travelers. hemera, one of the leaders in skyclan at the time, was the goddess of day, who worked under ninani. she was the goddess of day and light
the counterpart of the asomnoi is called d'laang. basically, it is hell with all the demons, who try to shake the asomnoi.
as for asomnoi history, they were an ancient society living in the new camp, and then once they were killed off, they waited for a clan to settle in their area. they fell dormant, and when they awoke, they found that skyclan was inhabiting their area, leading to the formation of the religion.
Ceremonies are always held each month. Kittens/puppies/cubs/ect become apprentices at six months of age (though this can vary due to the individual's species), and apprentices become warriors at twelve months old (again, this can vary based on the character's species). It is completely up to the warrior when they retire, and any member can change their name.
SkyClan has one tradition that has come up after their move to the underground metropolis. during their transition from apprentice to warrior, their mentors will lead them to one of the few remaining buildings in the Clan's old territory -- New York City. A clock tower at the edge of the town is where they stay for a night before going back to the camp, to fuel their hate for humans.
To keep the Clan running smoothly, there are rules for each member to follow (please note that your character can break these rules for plots; however, there will be in character consequences). Those are listed below.
RULES
- Do not murder, rape, harass, or capture members of SkyClan, allies, or neutral Clans.
- Respect your higher-ups.
- Anybody can learn healing, as Melody and Vaako believe that knowledge is free for everyone, it is just that the scientist is the most skillful
RANKINGS
leader ;; the boss of the clan, their word is law.
roleplayed by ;;
deputy ;; the second in command, they take over after the leader dies/disappears/steps down. they can lead raids with the leader's permission, handle discipline issues, accept raid/party invitations from other clans, and perform ceremonies.
