StoneClan Clan Description Territory StoneClan is what was once SkyClan, before the great journey to the Valley. They keep to the same old SkyClan skills of high jumps and leaps, though the skill for climbing and ambushing from branches has been lost in their new, very treeless territory. Instead they focus on attacks using their strong hind legs and on using their high leaps to get atop their opponents and use their weight to bring them down quickly. StoneClan tends to be a very peaceable Clan, almost always willing to talk things out before they escalate to battle. They are the most open and accepting of outsiders and are almost always willing to help the other Clans when they are in trouble.
StoneClan’s territory has similarities to their territory in the gorge, being hard on the paws because most of the ground is stone. However it has less forested territory than their previous territories and is very dry. Seeing that there are far fewer trees in their new territory StoneClan has had to leave some old skills behind and adapt and learn new ones, including the efficient Tribe skill of catching large birds as they swoop down for smaller prey such as mice. StoneClan's territory borders RainClan's and LightningClan's. Dangers + Drought can often be a problem in StoneClan, especially in greenleaf, causing less prey and killing off medicinal herbs. + Mudslides from the mountain behind can be a horrible danger to the Clan during newleaf and greenleaf. + Rock falls are common and can be a danger if a cat is in the wrong place at the wrong time, however injuries from these are generally rare. When they do happen though, death is a common result. + Predatory birds, though a great source of prey if they can be caught, also pose a real danger to even smaller adult cats. They have been known to carry smaller cats off as prey. + Foxes and badgers, though uncommon, can still be a danger to any cat they come across. + Demon, the monster cat, poses a danger to all the Clans if he happens to be in the Valley hunting deer. He may decide a cat on their own is an easier target for prey, but never attacks cats in groups. Sources of Prey + Small Birds (thrush, robins, finches, sparrows, etc.) + Mice + Squirrels + Large Birds (Eagles, Falcons, Hawks, etc.) + Lizards + Snakes Clan Life + Most StoneClan cats hold StarClan and the Warrior Code in high regard. Although non-believers may exist, they are often not vocal. StoneClan's overarching belief system also contains a strong sense community, even so far as considering the Clan as family. + Honor, loyalty, benevolence, respect and acceptance are traits often associated with StoneClan. Though being chased from their home has created a sense of wariness toward other Clans and loners, StoneClan is likely to offer a grace period for outsiders to prove themselves loyal to the Clan. Those who fail to demonstrate the expected traits may find themselves regarded with suspicion and mistrust. + Although StoneClan's family-based values prioritize relationships built upon love, courtships of convenience are not unheard of. With acceptance being a main value, LGBTQA+ or unusual relationships are welcome, though RPers are ultimately responsible for individual reactions.

StoneClan Greenleaf 2020 Update General Announcements The last four seasons have brought turmoil to StoneClan, but the Clan weathers through all trials just as the mountains do not bow to the howling winds. Losing two leaders in the span of a year means the newest leader, Birdstar, has his paws full keeping morale up. RainClan's herb embargo has required the medicine cat to journey around their neighbor to the other Clans. LightningClan's latest skirmish over the Sun Stones has not been forgotten. StoneClan patrols are on alert, with more cordialness shown to RainClan than LightningClan.
+ Until leaf-fall or the landscape is stabilized, traversing the territory affected by the newleaf mudslide is forbidden. This is for StoneClan's safety as Smokestar and several warriors were killed in this disaster. Birdstar encourages the Clan to stay inside during rainy conditions.
+ Sandblaze has retired to the elder's den, and his medicine cat apprentice, Ebonyheart, has obtained the position. Clan Territory and Security During Green-leaf, heat bakes the ground StoneClanners walk on, so patrols are typically restricted to cooler moments of the day such as dawn and dusk. A midnight patrol may be assigned if necessary, such as other patrols being delayed due to weather. Dawn, noon, and dusk patrols typically have a minimum of two or three cats while midnight patrols might have four cats.
StoneClan currently maintains possession of the highly contested Sun Stones (SC/LC border). In Newleaf #7, a LightningClan patrol ambushed a StoneClan patrol, causing a brief skirmish. Rivalry is slated to intensify, but no attempts at all-out war have been made. Larger patrols monitor this area, and a senior warrior or the deputy is required to be present for Sun Stone patrols until tensions ease.
StoneClan also holds the Stone Stream (SC/RC border). This border has remained under StoneClan's control for some time due to RainClan's larger river, and is of much less concern. Smaller patrols and patrols with younger members general inspect this border.
Patrols should remain on the lookout for unusual markings and droppings of any kind. Any indications of crossings should be reported to the deputy or leader.
Patrol Information: Only a patrol is permitted to walk through the mudslide-affected regions, but exercise extreme caution. Patrol requirements on LightningClan's border have increased due to the Sun Stones skirmish aftermath. Pay attention to any encroaching marks.
The typical patrol schedule is dawn, noon, and dusk. The rare midnight patrol is typically restricted to hunting, taking advantage of prey that would normally hide away from the overbearing Greenleaf heat.
Camp Safety: One guard stands at every entry and exit. At the return of each border patrol, the patrol lead briefs the deputy while the other patrol members (provided they aren't hurt, complete a perimeter walk around camp. The guards are relieved when this walk is completed) and their relief is briefed on any changes in the camp's surroundings. Notes: No Change. Current Diplomacy NightClan: Wary. The distance separating StoneClan and NightClan has previously left StoneClan relatively unconcerned with this Clan. However, they can't say the same for Darkstar herself and given StoneClan's friendly-neutral relations with TreeClan, they are wary about NightClan's ambitions.
RainClan: Neutral. Aggression against their neighbor has been put aside, but StoneClan is becoming impatient with Silverstar's embargo on herbs and feels they should be an exception, as a reparation for the StormClan debacle seasons ago. StoneClan remains vigilant at their shared border.
LightningClan: Distrustful. After the ambush at Sun Stones, StoneClan is suspicious of any covert operations LightningClan may have. Their deputy is extremely intelligent, which makes her a threat to clan security.
TreeClan: Friendly-Neutral. StoneClan is thankful for TreeClan's help in the past and hopes that friendly relations will intimidate LightningClan who is in between the two Clans. TreeClan remains the most welcome of the Clans in StoneClan's eyes.
Tribe: Friendly-Neutral. Birdstar continues his predecessors' legacy of showing kindness and sympathy to the Tribe. Tribe Cats are permitted to enter StoneClan territory unescorted in order to give messages between Skyteller and StoneClan's leadership.
Outsiders: Neutral. StoneClan allows all outsiders a chance at joining provided they conform to Clan culture and don't show aggressive behavior. Clan defectors are treated with more wariness, but Birdstar is sympathetic to a good enough story.
In-Character Events Leaf-fall 23: Death of Hawkstar and Frozenrain. death + mourningIn Leaf-fall, StoneClan's legendary leader and his mate pass away peacefully in their old age, leaving Smokestorm to gain her nine lives. Leafbare 26: A new discovery is made. linkIn Leafbare, Ebonyheart and her warrior escort Birdtalon discover a geothermal vent in the mountainside that overlooks StoneClan's territory. Newleaf 18: Death of Smokestar. linkIn Newleaf, only moons after gaining her nine lives, Smokestar and several warriors are buried alive in a mudslide. StoneClan fights to save them but only Rowanleaf survives the disaster. Newleaf 19: Valiantstride's Abdication. linkIn Newleaf, As Smokestar's deputy, Valiantstride is next in line to be Leader of StoneClan, but he announces that he'd intended to retire and that his replacement was Birdtalon. He escorts Birdtalon to receive his nine lives, and the whole Clan hopes Birdstar will not fail the Clan after two heartbreaks in a row.
