We Celebrate Pride Month Every Year!!! Members Celebrate Their LGBT Characters, Or Show Off Their Allies,

Hello Tumblr!

The mod team here, with an important announcement:

For the comfort of the moderator team going forward, this roleplay will be transitioning to an 18+ roleplay!

This is a TRANSITION, not an instant change!! Our current rules beyond our age rating are NOT changing immediately! We know there are currently minors in our server, so this will be a gradual transition over the next two years! ▫️ All current minors who are members: you are not required to leave whatsoever due to your ages! You will be "grandfathered" in! We do not plan to remove any current minors. As a result, none of our rules otherwise are changing, besides our joining process. We recognize that due to our current minimum age (16) that we will have to wait at least 2 years until any other changes could be implemented. ▫️ Going forward: We will only accept members from now on that are 18 and older. While we will never require anyone to tell us their legal age or birthday, It will be a requirement to at least attest that you are a legal adult in order to join. As always, anyone who is caught lying about their age will receive a permanent ban.

Thank you all for reading!

GHOSTS - RISE OF THE CLANS

Ghost characters are a unique, special playable character type in Rise of the Clans: they are active, undead spirits that haunt the territories the Clans call their home. It's unknown what compels one's spirit to manifest as a ghost, but there is one being responsible for this happening: Ether.

PAST LIFE MEMORIES

A ghost will never be able to formally recollect their entire life while alive. It is up to roleplayers what memories are taken from life into death!

HAUNTING THE LIVING

Every ghost is tied to a specific location as their "haunting grounds". They can only visually manifest at night. It takes a lot of energy for a ghost to manifest in front of the living: as a result, they will eventually fade from view after being spotted. They cannot interact with the physical world, but they can enter cats' dreams. They are somewhat transparent, with their eyes always "blanking out" into pure black or pure white, with no pupils or irises whatsoever.

Rise of the Clans will open for applications August 19th, 2024! Click here to learn more <3

FJELL'BYR ANATOMY - RISE OF THE CLANS

Deep within the mountains, where the frigid cold wind chills every living creature to their very bones, live a feline community known as the Fjell'byr, who call themselves the Fjell...

BASIC LORE/SPECIES INFO

The Fjell are a unique feline hybrid mix of the short/longhair feral cat, and lynxes. They live within the mountainous range above the Clans of the Lake, their incredibly thick pelts allowing them to thrive in such a cold environment. Due to how long and thick their pelts can grow, Fjell cannot survive the Greenleaf of the Clans - they are in danger of heat stroke.

IMPORTANT ANATOMY NOTES

OVERALL APPEARANCE:

1. The fjell display a range of phenotypes in overall appearance, from pure shorthair feral cat (top left image), to a visual mix of a cat and lynx (top right image). They can display a mix and variety of trait combinations appearing above: for example, they could have the build of a feral cat, but the large hybrid head shape, muzzle, and ear length of the hybrid. Another example is having the large paws and long legs, but a feral cat face shape, muzzle size, and ear shape. The range of combinations / visual appearance between the left and right images is essentially limitless.

2. They are on average larger than the feral cat: at maximum height, they stand at 16 inches tall at the shoulder, and with the purchase of oversized, they can be at maximum 17 inches tall at the shoulder.

3. Their legs are much longer, more lean, and less rounded than feral cats. They possess larger claws as well.

4. Their paws are much larger, flatter, and less rounded than feral cats, to allow them ease with climbing such steep, rocky, uneven terrain.

5. A feral cat's spine slopes upwards, in contrats to the fjell, whose spine actually dips ever so slightly.

6. The feral cat's torso is much longer than the hybrid - a fjell will have a stockier, more "rectangular-shaped" torso, comparably shorter in overall length.

7. Their tails are much shorter than a feral cat's - they tend to on average be half the length as a feral cat's tail.

FUR LENGTH:

1. The fjell can range from shorter fur like the image on the left, due to having a different, thicker fur texture that is noticeable in touch, or can possess fur as long as the bottom right image. It's more common to possess long fur than short.

2. The fjell are the only cats who can slightly break the "hair" tuft length rule only - eyes may be partially hidden / covered, but please note: the eyes cannot ever be completely obscured/hidden. You could consider the bottom right image as an example of this maximum "hair" tuft length, with consideration to style flexibility.

FACE TRAITS:

1. The fjell possess larger, longer muzzles than feral cats.

2. Their ears are larger, and much more pointed than feral cats. Feral cats have more rounded ears in shape.

3. Their pupils are naturally round and large, but can constrict like a feral cat's into slits.

4. The face shape is far more angular, and overall larger, then the feral cat's. 

Rise of the Clans - Official Map

Rise of the Clans is set in a fictional region in the United States, generally assumed to be located around the Pacific Northwest! As a result, there are a variety of naturally occurring phenomena, such as mountain ranges, lakes, marshes, the ocean, as well as more urban lifestyle, with a city located far away, along the ocean's coast. Weather can be extreme being so close to the ocean, as well as closer to the United State's northern border. Communities of feral felines have come to dwell in several places across the region. From the city to the mountains, felines live all different walks of life.

Rise of the Clans is OPEN for new members!

ROCKCLAN - RISE OF THE CLANS

OVERVIEW

RockClan is most known for their resillience in the face of adversity. Their lifestyle -- living in the depths of boulders and mountainous lands -- is a life that only the strongest can truly thrive in. To water down RockClan to simply tough is a disservice to the family that makes up this Clan. As close as they come, RockClan warriors would do whatever it takes to defend their home. Their land is carefully guarded by their Sentries, cats who are trained to watch and survey for potential threats. 

TERRITORY

RockClan's territory is by far the most perilous territory to live in- the territory consists of very mountain-like terrain, complete with large boulders and douglas fir trees. Mudslides and rock slides occur frequently, and it's very hard to traverse the territory. As a result, RockClan warriors are some of the toughest cats you're ever going to meet. RockClan warriors have paw pads that're tougher than hide and are very muscular, making any sort of climbing in this territory a breeze. The main prey found here are voles, moles, shrews, and occasionally an adder or an armadillo. The main predators found here are large birds of prey, coyotes, foxes, and large venomous snakes.

DAILY LIFE

RockClan like to keep up a profile of extremely tough cats. To help keep this image, it's a common bonding activity on patrol to sharpen one's claws on the rocks along the border, for the other clans to see. Whoever makes the largest scratch marks gets bragging rights, and gets to lead the rest of the patrol. From a young age, kits will challenge one another to see who can push the biggest rock in camp. This continues as a competitive activity into warriorhood; this can be dangerous, and has led to injuries, so it is frowned upon by senior warriors and leadership positions. Despite this gruff and tough outward appearance, RockClan is actually very easy going with one another and truly care about each other. They are extremely loyal, and will put aside personal differences to defend their Clanmate from outside trouble. Once a RockClan cat, always a RockClan cat.

SPECIALTY RANKS

With the uptick in trouble caused by rogue and forces unknown to the Clans, the leadership of RockClan decided that it was time for a specialized role in keeping a watchful eye out for the Clan. Sentries are a rank that specialize in surveillance and dexterity. They are expected to hone their climbing skills to perfection to effortlessly scale the mountainous terrain of RockClan. They are typically stationed at high vantage points such as trees and boulders both solo and with their fellow Sentries for day and night patrols. They are known to work closely with the Deputy, keeping them updated with anything concerning or notable they may have seen on their patrols. A cat can begin training underneath the Sentries after completing their Warrior’s training. 

FJELL'BYR - RISE OF THE CLANS

OVERVIEW

Fjell'Byr is a feline community that is a mix of feral cats and Fjell. The Fjell are a unique hybrid species of lynx and cat mixed together. They live far away, high up in the mountain ranges that oversee the Clans of the Lake. To journey from the Clans to Fjell'Byr takes several quarter-moons, and is not considered easy to travel. Unlike the Clans of the Lake, they do not insist on borders, and instead welcome all to traverse or visit their community, known as a Byr.

TERRITORY

Fjell'Byr's territory is not defined by formal borders: travelers are welcomed to traverse through their territory. The mountains are already dangerous as is, and it is not in Fjell'Byr's spirit to make the wandering traveler's life more perilous. It is cold, and snow is always present. There are trees lower down within the mountains, but as one climbs higher and higher, the skies are as open as the view across the horizon.

DAILY LIFE

Fjell'Byr is a large feline population that spans across the mountains, resulting in a social hierarchy to ensure cooperation and unity across the Byr. There are three main factions:

The Disciples, who take an oath of pacifism and specialize in medical care of Fjell'Byr

The Champions, who battle-train rigorously even as full-fledged Champions to specialize in protecting Fjell'Byr

The Scouts, who are swift with their paws and keen in their senses, who specialize in keeping a watchful eye, and hunting, for Fjell'Byr

Their high ranks are a delegation of representatives from the factions, known as the Circle, as well as six main figureheads:

The Monarch, who is the leader of Fjell'Byr and has the highest authority

The Heir, who is next in line to become the Monarch

The Herbalist, who has final say in prophecies and care for Fjell'Byr

The Head Disciple makes the final decisions for the Disciple Faction, and reports to the Herbalist

The Head Champion makes the final decisions for the Champion faction, and reports to the Monarch and Heir

The Head Scout makes the final decisions for the Scout faction, and is relatively new to Fjell'Byr's hierarchy

Through this social structure, Fjell'Byr thrives in peace and harmony.
