Creating Clans and Tribes

Early Clan/Tribe


Creating an Early Clan or Tribe
Early Clan/tribes are clans or tribes that have been newly formed or created these clan's/ tribes must contain at least 3 cats within it, these clans are still starting out and do not have the specified ranking system formed clans or tribes do. They have a leader but they do not have 9 lives or the word star at the end of their name, Early Clans or Tribes can claim a small territory on the site this territory is limited to one board to claim/create more an Early Clan or Tribe must upgrade to an established Clan/tribe. To create an Early Tribe or Clan the members that have decided to create it must have at least one role play thread together where they talk about creating a Clan/Tribe, these threads can be one on one or a small gathering of the three or more cats that wish to join. Once these threads have been made and finished the leader of the Early Clan or Tribe must then purchase the right to create their Clan/Tribe, if there are multiple leader (The deputy and leader in this case) they can choose to split the cost. Early Clans can only accept up to 5 members; they cannot accept any more members until they upgrade to Established Clan/Tribe status.

Claiming Land
To claim a territory simply post a claiming thread within one of the claimable territory boards after you have purchased the reward to own an Early Clan/tribe, in this thread your member must come together and all agree to settle in this area; the name of the clan or tribe will be decided.

Ranking System
Although Established Clans and Tribes have a ranking system Early Tribes or Clans do not, they have a leader(s) but they do not have nine lives or word star at the end of their name. There are no warriors, apprentices, or medicine cats, all are equal and loose. Early Tribes and Clans do not have a separate color; they will be placed into the same group with the appropriate titles.

Established Clans/Tribes

An established Clan or Tribe is when an Early Clan or Tribe constrains 5 members and they wish to upgrade to an Established Clan/Tribe status, Clans and Tribes have a set ranking system where their leaders gain their nine lives from their ancestors, Clan leaders also have the word star placed at the end of their name. Earlier these un-upgraded Clans/Tribes could only claim one section of territory, now as an Established Clan. Tribe they can claim and create more areas, a separate category will be created to keep track of their land. A Clan or Tribe can claim three boards; to add more areas to their land they must purchase this right. Within their land there must be a neutral area (usually located on the outskirts of the territory) where loners and other clan cats can roam.

Applying to be a Clan/Tribe

Lets say the Early Tribe 'Tribe of the Raging Wind' wanted to upgrade to an Established Tribe, in order to do so they must apply to form an established tribe by filling out the form found here and then send it to the admin account. They would then begin claiming the surrounding territory leaving one board open as neutral land. This would allow hopeful clan/tribe- member -to -be a chance to explore the area without trespassing on Clan/tribe lands

Rogues and kittypets are discouraged from trespassing into Clan or Tribe territory, doing so could have severe consequences. It is up to the leader of the Clan or tribe of which areas of the territory to claim, but it is encouraged that the leader takes input from the Clan/tribe members before placing a claim. If an area is already claimed by and Early or and Established Clan/tribe the members of the newly Established Clan can challenge them for the land. If a clan/tribe falls below 5 members it will be given 30 days to gain the required members before it is disbanded.

Members can join Established Tribe/Clans ICly or upon joining All for One, to join an Early Clan/Tribe members must join IC.

Early Clans/Tribes cannot challenge Established clans/tribes for their territory, but they can challenge other Early Clans or Tribes for their land.
