Pikaclan
Overview of clan
Pikaclan is composed of a handful of nimble cats which are peaceful to the most part. They dwell in the hills nestled between the mountain range. They are named after the small rodent like creature who used to inhabit the particular plot of land that they made their camp on and tend to be on the smaller side. This doesn't mean they are weak however, they just have wiry frames, built with muscle and fast due to their size. They live within crevices in the rocky landscape and even underground in shallow caves dug by the cats themselves. They are not great at swimming and are alright with climbing trees, their true strength comes with covering the hills at a fast speed that other cats just cannot quite compete with. Slopes and rocky terrain are nothing they cannot handle and are some of the more adept cats for climbing the mountains, but they don't often travel to the mountains as there isn't a need. (164 Words) Territory Description Located in the hills, Pikaclan inhabits an old Pika colony. The Pika burrows have become sleeping quarters for much of the clan and can easily be extended with slight digging if the clan needs. The clan leader's den however is located in cave formed by the rocks in the hills. While it is not a very large cave, it does have enough space for the leader to adequately speak to clan members in private. Just north of the main camp is the training grounds where there are variable terrains from hills, to slight forest all the way to mountains that the apprentices can work within. It is safe from the reach of Boneyardclan to the west and the twoleg place to the east as the only safe way through the mountain is the pass. The hunting grounds are located south of the main camp but these are only the primary ones. Most cats will hunt within the hills and forests outside the camp. A few specialized hunters even like to hunt in the more mountainous region of the clan territory. While their activities range pretty far through their land, they tend to stay between the mountains, river and the clan meeting point, so as to not intrude on the other clans territory. (212 Words) Diets With a range of terrain, the Pikaclan diet is pretty diverse from fish and shellfish from the river, to many of the different rodent species in the forest and even the Pika within the hills. A major portion of their diet however, is the birds that make their nests on the edge of the forest and within the hills of their territory. They scavenge when they can, picking at animals who have already died for various reasons, but do not have any thunderpasses that would be a danger or food source. Occasionally they will also raid the nests of some of the larger birds for the chicks and eggs or hunt for reptiles like snakes and lizards who are basking on the rocks. (123 Words) Bordering Clans (Not real clans- Just for the story/clan information) -Templeclan A fairly mellow clan to the southwest of Pikaclan. They often meet with Pikaclan during clan meetings and things are peaceful between the two clans. Very few skirmishes occur on the border of the clans. -Boneyardclan A clan that is known for their viciousness and fighting ability. Mostly keep to themselves and rarely attend clan meetings. While they are not ones to hesitate to fight, they do not go out of their way to cause fights. They rarely cross the mountains, keeping them as a firm border between them and the other clans. |
