We have a few main plots going on. The Burntstar's Fanclub plot is slowly falling into place as the involved kits are starting to be apprenticed and learn more about their idol to-be.
BeachClan is on the verge of attacking FrostClan. What will happen to the snowfaring cats if their sand-dwelling rivals succeed in their offensive? And what would this mean for the other clans?
AquaClan is still reeling from the destruction of their entire territory in a forest fire. However, spring is on the way, so the new shoots of green poking through the ash may finally be a sign that everything is going to be all right. They have been living in the no-cat's-land for about six moons now...

FrostClan has recently suffered a small snowstorm; expect sleeting and thick frost. RainClan is finding thick frost in the higher parts of the forest but it is quickly melting where the sun's rays reach it. BeachClan has a splattering of snow but it is relatively sunny with cold sea breezes. AquaClan is finding the same in their territory with morning frost preventing any new growth. Expect more rain and snow at higher levels.
Non-clan cats joining clans (this includes clan cats who were formerly rogues, loners, or kittypets).
Sicknesses/Ailments « Thread Started on May 31, 2008, 10:31pm »
Cough - a sickness that is like a human cold. Symptoms are just coughs and sneezes, though it can be dangerous to kits or young cats. Best Treatment: Tansy
Greencough - a sickness similar to pneumonia that is often rampant among the Clans in leaf-bare. Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, pus excreted from the eyes, sneezing, fever, and green phlegm streaming from the nose. Best Treatment: Catmint, feverfew, and lavender
Whitecough - a mild sickness like a cold. More common than greencough, but can become greencough or even the fatal blackcough. Symptoms include sneezing, coughing, white phlegm streaming from the nose, and a slightly high temperature. This is similar to kittencough, which is the least harmful of all coughs and is mostly caught by kits. Best Treatment: Catmint
Blackcough - a fatal sickness that spells certain death for any cat who catches it. Symptoms are unknown, but the "black" might be blood. Best Treatment: None
Chill - a very mild ailment usually caused by very cold weather or falling into icy water. Much like whitecough, but with cold chills instead of fever. Best Treament: Catmint, feverfew, and lavender
Cracked pads - a painful ailment usually seen in elderly cats. The pawpads crack from cold or dryness, and if untreated can lead to infection. Symptoms include swelling of the paws and pain. Best Treatment: Marigold, and poppy seed if there is pain
Aching joints - basically arthritis in cats. Caused by age or damp weather. Symptoms include pain and stiffness. Best Treatment: Anything that cures pain other than poppy seeds
Bleeding - blood loss due to injury, such as a wound sustained in battle. Severity depends on injury. Best Treatment: Cobwebs pressed onto the wound
Poisoning - the case of eating deathberries, poisoned fresh-kill, or other kinds of harmful things. Best treatment: Yarrow and stinging nettle
Freezing - a case where a cat is too cold and might die. Best Treatment: Grooming fur the wrong way to get the blood flowing.
Starvation - a case where a cat is too hungry. Best treatment: Fresh kill or queen's milk.
Weakness - a case where a cat is exhausted. Best treatment: Rest
