ShadowClan Patrol Place

***Undertaker*** · #1 September 28th, 2020, 06:38 PM

This is set beneath the Shadowledge. Patrols are to be taken out and reported here to Dawnstar(mention me).

There will be no set time limit for finishing the patrols, however, after a week's time expect Dawn to scold or punish the cats who have failed to report to her.

Dawnstripe stomped out of her den and plopped bottom down on the sandy ground, eyes glaring at anyone who dared to catch them. She had no deputy and with the way things were proceeding, she doubted she'd have one for some time which meant patrols were now a part of her duty.

"Gather at my paws for patrols." Dawnstripe yowled loud and demanding.

Normally patrols would be done with her calling out names and hoping they'd return and report to her. But madness' titters and whispers spoke of a new way to handle patrols. Sanity's was never far behind, agreeing with Madness strangely enough. They were both in agreement, she needed a deputy, even though she didn't want one. Seeing how patrols leaders handled the task she gave them would help narrow her choices a little more, from there she'd figured it out.

[Only respond if your interested in doing a patrol]

Adderfang promptly padded up sitting in front of the leader with a respectful nod. She may not really like (or respect) Dawnstripe but with her constant deadpan and general attitude of treating the high ranks decently no matter what, it's not like anyone would ever be able to tell. Not one for initiating conversation her mind turned to wondering where she'd be assigned to, claws scoring over the ground in anticipation hoping she's get windclan at least (though she would not mind riverclan) to ease her unease over the safety of the newly replaced borders. Thunderclan may have posed no issues during the reclaiming but shadowclan was still very at odds with the other two clans and Adderfang did not see peace coming from them any time soon.
She started as the thought struck her and broke the silence to ask a quick question voice smooth and calm as always "I never did get to reporting how the thunderclan border was when we rescented it with the havoc that soon followed. Are you interested in the information? Its nothing big but you may have use for it."

Ebonyfang padded up to the leader. They needed a patrol for herbs as well as they didn't have much. He wouldn't mind leading one since he was medicine cat apprentice. "I can take out an herb patrol. Our stock is low.", he meowed to his cousin. The fluffy black cat looked at Dawnstripe.

The frosty white warrior was one of the first cats to arrive. He was vaguely proud about it; while he was rarely late, Talonstone hadn't been early for anything in a while. He had missed out on most of the camp's construction, something that he wanted to make up for. This was an interesting style of patrols and regardless of whether or not it would last, it sounded effective. Lazy cats who wouldn't report back anyhow wouldn't be sent out on important missions. The warrior said nothing as he approached. Instead, he watched Dawnstripe for further instruction and while waiting for any others to gather around.

For the most part, he had nothing to do. He’d been a part of the reconstruction but only briefly as he’d escaped to gather moss. He wasn’t all that fond of hard labour anyways. Patrols had then always been his go too, to avoid that hard labour, but there was another problem that emerged. Meeting and talking to clanmates on patrols. He wasn’t sociable, in fact he was quite the opposite and enjoyed simply not talking to anybody outside of his bubble. And his bubble consisted of himself... says a lot doesn’t it? But instead of finishing up those renovations he could submit himself to a little bit of socializing couldn’t he? Wouldn’t hurt too bad.

Hogsnout padded his way to the group and plopped down not expecting Dawn to be right on top of assigning patrols quite yet. ”im here” he murmured basically to himself, a sort of encouragement to his own soul.

Shallowsparrow popped out. “Patrols? Count me in!” @Undertaker

Pumpkinpaw padded to the area, eyes dull,
“Patrols...” He said quietly,”This should be fun.”

[FONT="Georgia"]Silvermist padded towards Dawnstripe her ears pricked and ready, she then meows
Ill go on a patrol.

Patrols? Doetuft perked her ears slightly and the unconventional call didn't slip by her. That would be most interesting for sure, and having only ever been assigned one in her whole time in Shadowclan - and that one not going particularly well, unless you count Berrybounce sliding into the river 'well' - and it would be interesting to participate in one again. Unless things went wrong and she was assigned with someone who would rub up the wrong nerves on the blind molly, but she... she would have to get used to it, couldn't go ahead and push every annoying cat into the water and hope they were as bouncy as Berrybounce and would float. So she made her way over, slowly, but nevertheless arrived and sat down, only focusing her ears on the leader. Not like it mattered if she looked at Dawnstripe anyhow, there would only be darkness to show for that.

Finpaw about leapt out of his own pelt in his excitement to scramble over at Dawnstripe’s beckoning. Patrols? He hadn’t been on one in so long! Even if they hadn’t gone exactly as planned, he’d still enjoyed them - and the chance to support his clan - so he’d been longing for the chance to go on another ever since.

“I’m available for anything, ma’am,” he reported himself for duty as he sat himself down with the others in front of Dawnstripe.
