Ranks:
1. Kit. All cats start as a kit, unless you're an admin or mod; if you are you can have non-kit charries along with your kit/kits. You get to play all day, hear the elders' stories, and not have to do any work. When the time is right, you become an apprentice.
2. Apprentice. When the leader thinks the time is right, you become an apprentice. You get your suffix transformed from kit to paw, to show the path your paws are on. You get a mentor to train you. You learn how to hunt and fight for the Clan. Just don't forget to feed the queens, kits, and elders before yourself. After completing your final task, or doing something significant that convinces your leader and mentor it should happen, you become a warrior.
3. Warrior. After your training is done and the time is right, you become a warrior. Your leader picks a new suffix for you. You do more hunting and fighting. If your leader thinks you're good enough, you become a mentor.
4. Mentor. Mentors get to train apprentices. It's your job to make sure your apprentice learns to hunt fight, and obey the Warrior Code.
5. Senior warrior. Cats who have been warriors longer than the others, but are not elders, are senior warriors.
6. Queen. If you're a she-cat with a mate, and are expecting kits, you're a queen. You take care of your kits and keep them safe. You also get your prey before everyone else.
7. Elder. If you're too old or badly injured [badly injured as in body part loss], you can become an elder. You are known as wise. You tell stories to the kits, and even get the first pick of fresh-kill.
8. Medicine cat apprentice. If you don't want to train to become a warrior, you can train to become a medicine cat. The medicine cat is your mentor. You learn what herbs do and how to use them, and how to decipher prophecies and omens from StarClan.
9.Medicine cat. If you passed your medicine cat training, you become a medicine cat. You share a special bond with StarClan. Sick or injured cats depend on you to make them feel better.
