Plot Planning

Posted by Ember on July 30, 2015 at 12:50 AM

So, where do y’all want to take the plot from here?

I think that it’s about time that we have the medicine cats’ grip over MoonClan and DawnClan begin to crumble and judging from comments on the last plot planning entry I’m not alone in thinking this. How do you think that should go down, or would you prefer if we held off a while before transitioning back to traditional leadership?

Following the last gathering Frozenstar, Quickstar, and Ryestep were discussing attacking MoonClan. Their idea was to attack as quickly as possible and force them to surrender before DawnClan could arrive with back up. We could have something similar to that happen.

Coldstar is planning on bringing rogues from his former gang. If anyone is interested in playing one, please pm me (Dont want to spam the plot page xD)

Do you guys think we can start planning another battle soon? Something like a retaliation from NightClan and SunClan that actually ends on a successful or semi-successful note? Or at least causes major damage to MoonClan and DawnClan? It doesn't have to be any time soon, given how recently we just had one, but I think it would do nicely to add to the tensions within the clans themselves. Weepingtiger could blame the loss on the heretics in the clan and crack down on them because of it.

I'm glad you brought that up cuz I was thinking nigbtclan could team up with sunclan and attack moonclan and get all of their young ones that went to moonclan

Oh, I had an idea. It's the second post in the plot planning thing. I don't know how well it would work, now that Lynzstar is retired, but we could do something like that, maybe?

@Ebony, I feel like that would still work in this situation, the only problem being that they probably wouldn't be able to overwhelm MoonClan that way, especially when they send out for help from DawnClan, but maybe they don't have to win this next battle? It would stink to see all the apprentices and kits sent back to NightClan before anyone gets a chance to do much, so maybe just having them almost lose would be preferable if it's going to happen soon.

Yeah, my idea was to have Sunclan and Nightclan get really close to winning against Moonclan alone, and then Dawnclan to arrive just as they are about to make demands from Moonclan, and fight them away.

@Ebony hat sounds like a good idea, maybe Nightclan and Subclan could take a few prisoners or something?I would be willing to give up a cat

Hey guys, I had an idea. How about the cats against Coldstar and the rouges team up and then agree to head to Sunclan, whom then go to Moonclan and Dawnclan, spreading the news about the murderous trechery. They can then all team up to drive them out and the new leader of Nightclan can agree to the Starclan terms and the war is settled? I know its a long shot, but I just wanted to throw my idea out there °~°

I dont think that would happen. The rouges are loyal to Coldstar, abd if there was a revolution aganist him, they would protect him. It wasnt his fault in thw first place that there were murders.

I agree with Lily, and I think most NightClan cats are violent enough themselves to adapt, and can see the importance of getting rid of any cats who speak out against the leader. I can't see SunClan keeping NightClan allied with them with the way the clan currently acts, but it makes sense that they'd be too afraid of MoonClan and DawnClan's power to just break off the alliance. Unless SunClan decides to jump ship and form a little neutrality alliance with the other clans. Of course that would weigh the power much too heavily on one side.

Oops sorry, didn't mean rouges I meant just the cats that are against Coldstar, but I guess you are right.

We could possibly have the battle at some point this coming week?

I don't think it's a good idea to change up alliances at this point, unless we are going to completely redo the plan for having the medicine cats fall.

Combining a few past, suggested plot points into one that will hopefully work smoothly together, Nightingale, Ebony, Lauren, and I have sort of set up a framework for the way that the medicine cats can begin to lose their grip on power (at least the ones currently in control).

Please add your opinions and suggestions to this so it can expand and we can reach a general plot that most of the members are happy with :)

In DawnClan, Clawtail begins to realize that Dawnswallow's just following after Weepingtiger out of love, becoming jealous of her and enraging her, and she begins to build up a case to overthrow her. Along with the reveal of the foxglove seeds, Ebony would like Clawtail to be able to use the specific death of a cat she and the rest of the clan was relatively fond of, without letting Clawtail know beforehand to act as the final nail in Dawnswallow's coffin.

At the same time, in MoonClan a certain event brings Weepingtiger and Fernwillow into a conflict that eventually leads to Lauren's idea of having them at odds and sparking a lot of zealot related violence in the camp. Lashclaw will physically attack Scorchingpaw and Chillingpaw (upset about the death of his sister as well as the current set up of MoonClan). Both apprentices end up in critical condition and seem unlikely to survive. Lashclaw is executed and Weepingtiger states that any further talk of heresy or rebellion will be punished in the same manner (worried more attacks and possible murders will follow if the matter is not dealt with harshly.) While Weepingtiger is tending to him, Chillingpaw admits he has no faith in StarClan, and that if he survives it is not their will, merely the herbs and blind luck, while Scorchingpaw professes his faith that he will be saved. Seeing that Chillingpaw is recovering and appears likely to live through the ordeal, Weepingtiger slips him deathberries so he does not survive to taint the rest of the clan with his lack of faith. He then using Scorchingpaw's survival and Chillingpaw's death to help enforce a more extreme faith in StarClan than the clan already has. Fernwillow becomes suspicious about Chillingpaw's death and approaches Weepingtiger on the matter, who tells her the truth because he assumes she will go along with it. She doesn't, accuses him of the murder in front of the whole clan, and is forced to flee to DawnClan.

There she tells Clawtail what happened in MoonClan, adding to Clawtail's already strong case to overthrow Dawnswallow.

The intended results of these events would be that Dawnswallow is overthrown, MoonClan gradually (or quickly) breaks down into chaos with a clear line between those who believe and those who don't, eventually leading to a battle that overthrows Weepingtiger.

I don't know if we should start planning anything past that until we get closer to the events actually unfolding, but we're open to any suggestions that could add to the chaos, excitement, or helps the events unfold.

I am also willing to replace Chillingpaw and Scorchingpaw with any other kits or apprentices that anyone wants to offer in their place (one would have to die after expressing a disbelief in StarClan, while the other remains faithful). The only reason I'm planning on using my own characters at the moment is in case there aren't any volunteers willing to kill or nearly kill a younger character (kit or young apprentice (Lashclaw has to be able to injure them severely rather quickly)). So, if you'd like to have your character in one of their roles in the events, just say so and we can flip them right away :)

I have screamingkit, and since she came from nightclan (and is basically insane) she can be the one to not believe in starclan and almost die (or die completely, whichever suits your fancy :3)

@Acornsplash It would probably work better not to have the cat who dies as one of the ones taken from NightClan. I want Weepingtiger to be able to at least semi deflect the accusation that he killed the young cat (which would be hard given his well-known dislike of NightClan) and it'd make a greater impact on MoonClan if one of their own members died due to their "lack of faith".

Maybe before Fernwillow flees to Dawnclan, she could warn Eclipsestar-because she knows that Eclipsestar has complete faith in Starclan and almost blindly follows Weepingtiger's commands because she is being mislead-and then immediately has to flee.Fernwillow being a medicine cat, Eclipsestar would confront Weepingtiger or he come to her and Weepingtiger would deny murdering the cat, and telling her that Fernwillow had betrayed everyone and Starclan, making Eclipsestar believe him-but a seed of doubt and suspicion would be planted in her mind, because Eclipsestar was quite fond of Fernwillow and believed her to be quite an honest cat.That could help lead toward the fall of medicine cats, if the suspicion and doubt grows enough based on certain information or events, and she might be able to lead the revolution?
