Rapidclan High Position Auditions
You may try out for as many high positions site wide as you would like, but you will only get two.
As Roleplayer of the leader of Rapidclan, Im setting up the auditions for the other high positions of the clan. Because these are of course High positions, I do ask that if you are going to try out you be willing and ready to post. As leader I reserve the right to take these positions back if you are not active (although it would take a lot for that to happen, like you disappearing for two months or more and not responding to my PMs, I wont be fickle in my appointments believe me), so as to not hold up roleplay and progress just for one leader. I don’t intend to hold this position forever, but Flintstar has still at least five more lives left, possibly six, and he still has a good long life ahead of him.
Anyway got off track there. Rapidclan is going to be a bit strange with its High positions. Dawnlight is the full medicine cat, but she is still very young, and has little experience, so she wont be taking on an apprentice for at least a few more seasons. Instead we will have something along the lines of an assistant medic, more info on that particular try out. Otherwise the Deputy try out will be a typical basic tryout.
Deputy:
40 + moons
Gender and appearance are up to you
Guys that is not that old, please, cats can live at least ten years easily if cared for in the clan. Mistystar was ridiculously above and beyond that as a leader. 40 moons is only like 30 years old, still young to be in a position of power. Please don’t complain.
Appearance at least 125 words. Again not too much, what breeds does your cat resemble? What are the colors and patterns of his/her pelt, what does the cat’s fur feel like? What is its build? Any scars?
Personality at least 200 words. If you need help with this, on the character rules is a link to a list of personality traits. Pick at least 2 positive, 1 neutral, and 2 negative (more is encouraged), and then write a few sentences based on each trait. That should easily get you to 200 words. You can even include likes, dislikes, fears, and goals.
History at least 350 words. It helps if you divide your cats life into sections. Talk about the cats parents, about growing up as kit, talk about siblings or friendships, talk about apprenticeship, about the mentor, what were his skills and challenges as an apprentice, what was the last assessment like, did anything interesting happen as a warrior, what was it like training an apprentice? Don’t forget to include that the last deputy died recently. Once The deputy has been chosen we will roleplay out the scene of him/her being appointed, as well as a few other things.
Assistant Medic:
35-45 moons
Gender and appearance up to you
As to why the age range, well I guess the point is you have to know the story first. This cat will have originally been the medicine cat apprentice to Lichenfur, but for some reason either chose to leave that path or was forced to, near the very end of the medicine cat training, and instead became a normal warrior. For this I urge you to be creative, the more creative the reason the more likely I am to choose your try out. In any case, now the cat is being called on to help (be it reluctantly or cheerfully its up to you) since Dawnlight is still getting on her feet and would need the experience and knowledge that the other cat could offer. In time it will be likely the cat wont really be needed that much for that anymore, but for now Rapidclan will require their service.
Appearance at least 125 words. Again not too much, what breeds does your cat resemble? What are the colors and patterns of his/her pelt, what does the cat’s fur feel like? What is its build? Any scars?

History at least 350 words. It helps if you divide your cats life into sections. Talk about the cats parents, about growing up as kit, talk about siblings or friendships, etc. Now this is where it gets different from the deputy tryout. Like I mentioned before this cat will once have been a medicine cat apprentice, but something changed which caused the cat to become an average warrior instead. Explain what this was, and maybe even write out a scene from the process. Then explain what happened in their warrior life afterwards. Did they gain a mate? Or are they just doing their warrior thing?
If this seems a bit intense, its because we are a literate site, and especially for High positions it is important that we know you can handle higher levels of writing and responsibility.
Using the bio form (here) please post your tryouts to this thread.
