The blizzard has passed, and a large rainstorm has been predicted by medicine cats, a sign of hope. But the clans are still grieving for those lost in the cold months, and an even greater danger is padding closer to them with every moonrise...
If you're active (200+ posts; six IC posts with the past two days), then audition for Leolin and Neta, the lead Seekers of our next plot. Also, pay attention for EclipseClan deputy auditions and possible CloudClan medicine cat auditions. Also, people, this site is SEMI-LITERATE. Try to post 150 words, use spellcheck, correct grammar and format, and make your post look neat.
Garnetcloak has retired from EC deputy position, leaving it open. Wovenknot is now MC leader. Solemnpaw is the new SC medicine cat apprentice.
Weather News ;;
Winter's hold is loosening. Several short bouts of rain have fallen, washing the snow into slush that makes hunting and patrolling difficult and tedious. But the sun is rising higher and warmer every passing day - Newleaf is approaching fast. The rivers, lakes and streams are free of their ice, and it is now safe for kits to leave the nursery once more.
EclipseClan News ;;
After receiving her nine lives and leader's name, Fernstar returned to camp and made Silverleaf's litter apprentices. Brackenkit has returned. Littlefox died after an accident, leaving Prophecyteller to take her place as medicine cat of EclipseClan.
MoonClan News ;;
Darkmagic was killed in an accident on the Thunderpath. Secretcalling has began to spread rumours about Wovenknot's sanity.
CloudClan News ;;
Stormstar was dramatically killed, leaving Fadedmemory to take his place. She is currently at the Moonshard receiving her leader's name and nine lives. Before departing, she named Swampfox as her new deputy.
BrightClan News ;;
Leafblade, Venomstrike, Birdfeather and Hopesong all gave birth to beautiful litters.
SerenityClan News ;;
Mystique has been accepted into SerenityClan temporarily.

There was recently an activity check and lots of inactive members got deleted. If you were active (or joined after the AC), please make a new account. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Due to Mouse's departure, I'm kinda fishing around on the headers part on my own. I had to delete the names off of the staff banners because I want to keep it consistent (and if we get new staff, I won't be able to make those name things like Mouse did). Sorry for those who liked it.
Fernie's News
Okay, so most of you know about the huge inconcenience that was me falling from a horse and breaking my back, blah, blah, blah. Hopefully I'll be able to start posting more right about now, the pain isn't so bad any more and I can sit for longer. Don't expect my muse to be great though. I'll try my best, as usual (:
Kuri's News
WOAH. I'm actually on the staff board. o___o Anyway, everyone post in the BrightClan activity check and anyone who needs to give Grainpelt a life, post in the thread at the MoonShard. When Grainpelt returns home, a ceremony will be held, so make sure to tell me which kits need to become apprentices and which apprentices warriors.
Raven's News
Hm..well, I finally made it on here....Now what? xD
Ah well, i'll wing it. Anyways, as you all know, Fadedmemory got her name, Fadedstar, and her lives. Some of her memories from her kithood and apprenticeship were given back to her and it may or may not cause some to think about who they have as a leader. If you have any kits/apprentices that need ceremonies, then just PM me asking about it. I'll probably need some reminding, and Aurrie'll kick my butt if I don't pay attention. Heh. So...yeah....There's your dose of Raven ^^

If you want a rose of many names, here you go. Chesh has been known by tons of names here on BRC, such as Rio, Scribbs, Lion, and many others. The one that's stuck for now is Chesh, after the Cheshire Cat. She's been on BRC since June of 07 and can't seem to stay active on any place but here. However, there've been moments where she's been inactive here. She lost her deputy of CloudClan, Nightfur, and medicine cat of MoonClan, Minnowmask because of it. (She also roleplayed the previous medicine cat, Grieverstone). However, she's back for now, auditioning again but having yet to win. Good luck, Chesh, and thanks for being Member of the Moment!

Information on this Cat
Emeraldmyth is the wonderful rookie medicine cat of CloudClan. Roleplayed by Rogue, this green-eyed she-cat had to take up the mantle after the tragedy that left her without her mentor, Dragonflydance. Tutored by the other medicine cats, Emeraldmyth swiftly rose to the top and took her place as full medicine cat of CloudClan. However, she is still young and has a lot to learn before rivalling the legendary medicine cats Littlefox, Runningcloud, and Dragonflydance in knowledge and inner strength.
