The Warriors Forest is a 4 year old *mostly* traditional warriors role-playing site, set more or less in the old forest (think first series). Though we don't have a Tribe of Rushing Water, we do have all other clans and, of course, loners, rogues, and kittypets. Ranging from beginner to advanced, with lots of intermediate, we have a role-playing school that can help you with anything from mechanics to length. Currently, we have no plot, but hopefully one will be in the making soon. For any further questions, please feel free to ask around or contact any one of the staff, who will be happy to help.

¬ THE MARSHES Covering much of RiverClans territory is marshy ground, filled with reeds and mud. There are sometimes soft spots in the mud which may sink and cave in. RiverClan apprentices are traditionally taught of these spots so that they know how to avoid them. The reeds of this marsh are tall enough to obscure a cat completely, and they allow for excellent ambushes - both for and against RiverClan. However, the cats of RiverClan are very accustomed to such terrain and have become experts in reading the slightest twitch of a reed, the faintest rustling. The cats of the clan also may catch frogs and small marsh sparrows and wrens in these marshy areas. Occasionally they will find straying rodents as well.
¬ THE RIVER The River cuts through the heart of RiverClan territory before curving to form the clan's border with ThunderClan. In some places it is wide and flows powerfully, in others it is narrow and not difficult to ford. The RiverClan cats are expert swimmers, and the river is also their source for fish, their primary prey. The river can be deep in places, occasionally even with drop offs, so cats unfamiliar with it or who are not good at swimming can drown. The banks of the river are muddy, and reeds line much of them except where the river cuts through the forest. The river's bottom is pebbly, and some pebbles are sharp, posing a danger to cats who choose to wade there.
¬ WOODLANDS Near the border with ThunderClan, the river curves and begins to flow through a territory spotted with trees. The trees of it are not thick enough to really be called woodland or forest, but they do provide a cover, a shade, in the hot summer weather. Mossy rocks, bark, grass, and fallen leaves line the floor of this area, and it is soft and comfortable. Next to the river, the air is cool. There is much land prey to be found here, though RiverClan does not often use it. Mice hide in the shelter of rocks, thrushes trill from the branches of trees - maple, oak, and beech, among others. The RiverClan Wood, as it is often called, is a comfortable place, peaceful and beautiful. At night, the gleaming stars can be seen in the gaps between leaves.

¬ ROCK-SHELTER At the back edge of RiverClan territory is a huge rock rising out of the ground. It curves outwards, creating an overhang of sorts from which vines fall. This overhang is also surrounded by reeds, and once one goes under it, one finds a comfortable hollow space with moss and mushrooms. A hole in the rock above allows a small view of the sky, and at night a single star twinkles there. This place has a peaceful feeling to it, rather like the moonstone cave, medicine cats say. In fact, some medicine cats and leaders claim to have had very vivid dreams of StarClan here. It is usually used by RiverClan cats as a retreat, a place for meditation and reflection. When they feel stressed, angry, or just that they need an escape, they come to the Rock-Shelter. The soothing gurgling of the river is audible, as well as the chirps of birds, and there is a magical feel to it. The space is large enough to hold several cats, though there is an unspoken rule that, if multiple cats share the space, they will not speak with each other.
