Default To the Tunnels!

So, I have been working on a minor-ish WindClan plot. My oc, Maplebird will be leading this rebellion [i guess you could call it that?] Open to all WC cats * || Summary: The tunnels will be used as a refuge while wc gains strength + stability, then eventually give a final push. [fighting back]


Update 2/10/2021: New alibis added

 

 

To start things off, Maplebird will bring up this idea to a few cats before Dawn returns. Those cats can share it through rp as they like, but remember not to spoil any unknown details, AND to stay quiet. [Currently here] Cats would eventually be taught how to navigate from the hiding area back to the exit. The initial step would be storing up prey in the tunnels, preferably in a cool place [?] as well as just regaining stability overall. Dens would need to be dug for warriors who will rest in the tunnels. Tunnel expanding would try to continue on days that the ground isn't frozen, most likely lead by Rani's Crowtooth. Since Dawn will be staying in WC camp for most of the plot, it is "highly unlikely that she won’t discover the tunnels." (Undertaker in my VM's) This means that everyone needs to be quiet about this, as characters brainstorm alibis I will add them to a list for public use.

 
WIP - The first few cats would be moved out of the tunnels to a safe location or [...] 1-3 warriors would fake running away while they are secretly living in the tunnels.

 
To be updated.
This plot depends solely on the chance that ShadowClan does not discover the tunnels. [Which they will] Basically, the tunnelers would work on the tunnels more in secret. Only on the days when able though, as on some days the ground will definitely be frozen. Having a back up supply of prey hidden in the tunnels could do them good, as long as it doesn't turn into crow food. After they have enough prey stored up, they could fake their deaths/fake running away. A small band of young warriors could be working on the tunnels and moving kits and queens while claiming they fled to Thunderclan or Riverclan, while in reality they are in the tunnels, or underground. Kits should be moved into the tunnels at first, only a couple at a time to not raise suspicion. The warriors could say the kits are "starving to death". Or, a queen could escape during the night, taking as many kits as she can, and they say she fled to Thunderclan or Riverclan, while in reality they are living in the tunnels. There should be one or two guards at the tunnels. [credit to @/dinosaur for this part] Some cats would have to remain in camp to prove as a distraction. [credit to @/implimm] This would leave the wc rebels with unknown numbers, causing chaos with their final attack. I am open to other ideas for this part as well. The main part set in stone would be this:

Chaos would need to be caused in wc, to send at least some shc warriors over there to help. With the distraction, they will burst through and raid. It would be a life or death fight, and the main goal would be to find Twil. And they would probably need to find a way to mental confuse, Dawn in case (which the probably will) come across her. Also, wc needs speed- they already have some, but they would need to be very fast for this to work

1) This plot is basically just a plan. In no way is this going to go as described, things are going to be determined through rp.

2) ShadowClan cats are going to be able to interfere at any time, as every post is basically open. The alibi list will be very important for these situations. Every alibi brainstormed through rp will be there, and it will be crossed out if its known through rp that it has been used.

3) Your cats will not die for being solely a part of this plot. But if you have them attack Dawnstar, they might be. ["No one will be killed, unless I’m asked to kill someone, Dawn feels threaten or for a plot, I made a promise not kill a bunch of Windclanners due to Dawns temper. Dawn will be punishing Twilight instead." -Undertaker in my VM's]

"Current info about the tunnels:
There are two major enterences that may be used here, what crow calls the camp enterence and the out of clan enterence. These two holes are connected to the largest tunnel network including crows makeshift 'nest area'. The camp enterence is covered by a large rock in the middle of a patch of long grass outside the camp to prevent kits from finding it and is (for now) hidden. This could be a main point of escape but if dawn finds it while they could collapse a tunnel and prevent her from finding the group the jog would be up. The second entrance is a long way out of windclan camp borders in unclaimed land, this could be used to hunt in as while hunting underground is possible few cats have experience with that and would need to be taught and the amount of rabbits hibernating down here is limited and eventually we would bleed that resource dry.

Crowtooth has a makeshift camp area where he has a napping nest for when he spends long times down there and was planning on running a breezefeather endorsed event to turn it to a second camp (that plan was well interrupted wasnt it). Its tiny and needs work but that can be done.

As for knowledge no one should have more then a basic understanding of how to deal with the tunnels (cats who participated in past tunnel event should have a basic idea though) but Crowtooth is happy to take a group of warriors and spend some time teaching them necessary skills. Hes got no people skills so should no be put in charge of queens elders or kits but will happily help the warriors and apprentices. (WARNING: CATS SHOULD NOT BE IN THE TUNNELS ALONE UNLESS THEY HAVE A HIGH LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE AND APPRENTICES NEED A WARRIOR UNLESS THEY WANNA GET HURT, ITS DANGEROUS)"

If your character brainstorms a alibi please have them approach Maple and tell her if you want it to be on the list!

Not shared through rp yet:
  • Hunting --> MAIN [post]

  • Seeing if any herbs might be in the tunnels, since they probably don't grow on the moor in this cold weather [post]


  • Heard some noise and went to check what it was [post]
