The Silver Belt is like a path paved with stars. When the time comes for a cat to leave this world, it follows this path and becomes part of the star cluster.

When a cat dies, it's customary to mourn it. Only those who were close to it in life may approach the body. These cats are there to bid it a final farewell and escort it to the stars.

Every star in the night sky is a memory of a cat who found his way to eternity.

This ceremony is held when a kitten attains the status of apprentice and receives its first teacher. According to tradition, if an apprentice becomes their teacher's first apprentice, they must touch noses. If an apprentice reaches the rank of warrior, there is another tradition: they must guard the camp all night, without uttering a word, until the sun rises and a new day dawns.

When a kitten becomes a squire, its name changes, and when a squire becomes a warrior, the same thing happens.

Being a teacher is a great responsibility and every teacher should be proud of this title.

The Herald always appoints a leader for each patrol, who in turn selects the participants. Patrols come in different types:

*Hunting Patrol - This unit hunts to ensure the tribe has sufficient food.

• Morning, Day, and Evening Patrols - These groups patrol the borders between tribes to ensure there are no intruders. However, it should be noted that each of these patrols performs its task at a specific time of day: the morning patrol only in the morning, the day patrol during the day, and the evening patrol in the evening.

Plan of any tribe's camp

The nursery is a secluded corner in the undergrowth where kittens are born. Queens sleep here with their kittens, and the kittens spend time there until they are old enough to be trained. After that, they leave the nursery forever.

Leader's Rock is a raised platform where a leader climbs to conduct an initiation ceremony, announce a disaster, or any other important event so that the entire tribe can hear.

The Healer's Cave is where Clan cats receive treatment and where sick cats live until they recover. A Healer spends their entire life here.

The Fresh Game Pile is a location located behind Leader's Rock where you can find all the game you've caught and satisfy your hunger.

There are several sleeping places: the Healer's Cave, the nursery for queens and kits, the Squires' Den for apprentices/squires, the Warriors' Den for experienced warriors, the Elders' Den for wise elders, the Herald's Cave for the Herald, and the Leader's Cave/Rock for the leader.

ShadowClan is a mysterious community of shadow cats known for their stealth, cunning, and agility. However, their friendly exterior conceals a bloodthirsty and dishonest nature.

The Shadow Tribe dwells in the swamp, and their scent, reminiscent of a mixture of old hide and swamp, only enhances their gloomy image. According to legend, the cold north wind that blows from their territory has frozen their hearts.

WindClan is a tribe of agile and nimble cats. Their speed and grace help them hunt hares, and their territory is home to many rabbits that no cat from another Clan could catch. WindClan cats love to sleep outdoors, but in a tent, so roofless tents can be seen in their camp.

ThunderClan is a tribe of brave hunters who live in the dense forest. They are renowned for their bravery and courage, as well as for frequently producing large kits!

RiverClan is a tribe of excellent swimmers! Their territory is filled with water, and they are the only ones allowed to hunt in the river. The river is literally teeming with fish, so RiverClan is always well-fed. They are as agile as WindClan, but unlike WindClan, they are excellent swimmers.

Stardew is the leader of ThunderClan! He's 40 moons old. A Clan can only have one leader, and they must be wise and strong. Stardew is prepared for battle and can't imagine life without the protection of his Clan. Leaders sleep in a cave under a cliff.

There can only be one Deputy in a Clan! And that's Scar, the Deputy of ThunderClan! His name is so named because he's simply covered in battle scars! He's 38 moons old! And he's just a grump! But at the same time, he's a brave and massive Deputy of the Clan! Sleeping place - Deputy sleeps in their cave above the nursery.

ThunderClan has four queens: Blueeyes, Snowwhite, Goldenfur, and Ermine.

Blue Eyes is the mother of four kittens, but sadly, she lost one of them. She is 32 moons old, and her personality remains a mystery to many.

ThunderClan has five wise elders: One-Ear, One-Face, Longpaw, Scratch, and Shatter.

One-Ear is an elder who, despite his age—49 moons—retains a clear mind and wisdom. His name became famous because he lost one ear in a fight with a badger.

One-Face is the calmest and most level-headed elder of the tribe. He is 58 moons old and lost half his face in a fight with dogs.

Longpaw is one of the tallest elders, his paws covered in scars. He's as tall as a skyscraper, and his sense of humor knows no bounds. He's 41 moons old.

Tsarap is a calm and not very wise elder, but in a fight he's a real beast! His name comes from his razor-sharp claws and fangs. He is 43 moons old.

Raskol is the oldest elder in the tribe, 82 moons old. His bones often creak, and his claws have become quite dull.

All the elders sleep in a tent, which is always filled with the aroma of pine needles, creating an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.

ThunderClan is home to many amazing warriors: Longtail, Snowpelt, Ray, Longear, Storm, Brightstar, Longjump, Hawk, and Silverpaw—each with their own unique personality and talent.

Brightstar is an incredibly intelligent and quick-witted warrior, whose eyes seem to reflect the stars. His body is completely white, with black spots, and he is 23 moons old.

Belyanka, Constellation's mentor, gave her life for her apprentice. Without her sacrifice, Constellation would have fallen to her death in the ravine. Now, Belyanka rests in her place, forever enshrined in the Clan's memory.

Longtail is a warrior who may seem annoying, but his speed and long tail make him truly swift. He trains Patchkit and is 26 moons old.

Ray is a cheerful and happy warrior who never knows sorrow. He trains Pooh and makes him reach 30 moons of age.

Longear is a calm and strong warrior, submissive to his tribe. His long ears give him patience and wisdom, and he is 32 moons old.

Storm is a hot-tempered warrior with powerful muscles. His nickname comes from the fact that when he gets angry, everyone around him begins to regret being near him. He is 28 moons old.

Longjump is a small warrior who leaps agilely and high. He's as good at debate as he is at business, and he's only 19 moons old.

ThunderClan has several young apprentices: Starshine, Blackfoot, Fluffpaw, and Patchkit.

Constellations is Belyanka's student, known for her unpredictability. She is only eight moons old.

Blackfoot, on the other hand, constantly boasts of his accomplishments and loves to mention Scar, the Clan's Deputy. Despite this, he remains a self-absorbed cat, only nine moons old.

Pooh, so named for his fluffy fur, isn't very agile. However, he's kind and willing to stand up for himself and others. He's 10 moons old.

Patchkit, nicknamed for his many wounds, remains stern even at such a young age. He often listens to his mentor, Longtail, and still has plenty of patience. He is 13 moons old.

Rosinka, a kitten with silver fur and bright blue eyes, resembles his mother, Serebryanka. He is only seven moons old.

The squires' tent is located in an open clearing where the starry sky always shines.

Tsap is ThunderClan's medicine cat. He's stern, but always caring. His coat is gray with black stripes, like a tiger's. He earned the nickname "Tsap" for his razor-sharp claws. He's currently 32 moons old.

Tsap sleeps in the healer's cave, where herbs are also stored and where the sick are treated.

We're both cats living in ThunderClan. There are three other Clans in the forest besides ours, and each one consists only of cats who follow the law. For example, they don't cross Clan boundaries. These are warrior cats!

There are different roles in our tribe:

• *A kitten *is a newborn cub who is not yet ready for training.
• Apprentice *- this is achieved when a kitten is six moons old. This is a future warrior, essentially an apprentice. Once trained, he becomes a warrior.
• Warrior *- the primary role in the Clan. These are already trained apprentices. Sometimes they can take an apprentice as an apprentice, but only with the Leader's approval.
• Elder *- an old cat who is already too old to serve the Clan. Such cats are often considered wise.
• Queen *- this role is associated with that of a mother. When a cat is pregnant, she does not fulfill her warrior duty. And only when her kittens become apprentices does she return to the ranks of warriors.
• Healer *- this role is valuable, like that of a doctor. They heal with herbs. There can only be one medicine cat in a Clan, and no cat in the forest may attack him. This is the warrior code.
• A Herald is the Leader's deputy and assistant. He is second in command. After the Leader's death, he becomes the Leader. The Leader *is the most valuable and respected cat in the Clan. He must establish order without breaking the warrior code.
• A Mentor is a teacher, but he can only have one apprentice.

Rovers are loners who live in the forest, among people, but belong to no one. If a rogue enters a tribe's territory, they are usually driven out. Rovers have no law of their own or a specific place to live. Rovers are divided into two types: peaceful loners and scoundrels.

Peaceful loners are those who live peacefully among people, do not try to fight against the tribals, but they also cannot walk on their own.

Scoundrels are the troublemakers. Sometimes they band together and break the law. This is a very unpredictable role, and they certainly need to be driven out of your territory.
