The molly padded over to the pile as she gently placed the minks down. She didn’t actually know what to do now since all that happened in their patrol but the least she could do was look for her mentor……or go to the kit den and tell Meadowkit all about what happened! Yeah…but she did need to train, ugh…this is difficult to think about. Turtlepaw's head shook as she padded towards the warrior den hopefully finding her mentor.
Darkcloud
Shadowclan warrrior
Purrk: Shadow fiend and just a scratch(both inactive)
Entering the clearing, hopefully with Cornpuff in tow, Darkcloud immediately stalked up to Dawnstar once she'd spotted her and gave a respectful dip of her head as she neared "Greetings Dawnstar, we had no troubles on our patrol though, Wolftooth didn't arrive. Also we saw a Thunderclan patrol leaving and we believe Bumblestar was with them." silently awaiting an answer, the she-cat was unsure of what reaction the news would get but she mentioned it anyway just in case Dawnstar would like to know.
Sharpfrost limped slightly back into camp. "Apopogies for my lateness great Dawnstar. There was a rouge attempting to hunt on our land, I chased him out. Other than that our patrol went well!"
(She chased one of my other cats off the territory, is her exuse)

PATROLS ARE DUE MARCH 14th
BY 11:59pm CENTRAL TIME
If you would like to be replaced please let me know no later than March 8th. You are more than welcome to ask for an extension up to three days after the patrol is due (OCC I would prefer you tell me beforehand but I will not deny an extension as long as it is within that range), however, patrols that fail to report back or return with empty paws will be punished in character by Mossfreckle and/or Lostspark or Dawnstar.
Please report in this thread to Mossfreckle [mention me @/Fawn<3] with the number of each herb gathered along with a link to the post in which you collected the herbs. Note that no cat should be realistically able to carry more than 5 herbs - if you have The Collecter purkk you will be able to carry 8 and if needed extra trips can be made to carry back more.
Unless stated by the patrol leader, everyone should report their own herbs
[failing to return with herbs will result in IC punishment]
Please VM if you have any question or concerns, I don’t bite
(If your character is an apprentice and none of the warriors are showing up it is your responsibility to find a warrior to go with you and/or go and speak with Mossfreckle)

ﾟ。 Mossfreckle (ShC)
ﾟ･｡･ﾟ they/he ~ medicine cat apprentice
Freckled oriental shaped form stretched into a mountain shape as Mossfreckle stood and stretched, mossy hues fell on Lostspark and he offered his lithe grey mentor a soft smile before he padded diligently from the belly of the medicine cats den to the mouth and out into the clearing here he settled at the base of the Shadowledge, his feathery tail curling over his white tipped paws. The herb supply was not pitiful but it was better to keep it that way than to take it for granted, anxiety prickled at the medicine cat apprentice’s pelt as he prepared himself to announce the patrols… focus, focus, focus, focus… his starry mind soothed into the mocking voices of his mind - Lostspark trusted him to do this and he wanted to prove himself to her and his clan… he was useful to his clan and he hoped that the cats he called would not let him down - he was usually quite a calm feline but he would be quite irked if anyone was incompetent and failed to follow the simple orders he gave them.
Mossy hues fell on the trouble maker of the meeting, “Flickerlight [ @GoldenRavenWings ] since you decided to cause problems and waste herbs, you will be going to Shadowclan Territory in search of Marigolds and Cobwebs,” he meowed curtly, a twinge of irritation painting his usually calm tones, ”Marigolds are orange flowers, their quite hard to miss. You will be taking Starrylight [ @peachfuzz~ ] and Dovedance [ @paris ] with you.” Tail flicked idly, he had chosen the easiest and most used herbs first, anyway with the raid coming up these herbs would soon be in short supply and it was better to prepare… a necessary evil… he reminded himself before he turned to the next cat on his mental list of patrols.
“Darkfall [ @Dark ],” Mossfreckle yowled to get the attention of the dark pelted tom, You will be heading to Icy Heartlands to look for Lavender and Comfrey. Lavender is tall stalked purple flowers and Comfrey tall stemmed with long leaves and purple hanging blossoms,” Mossfreckle continued on after a pause, ”as request you will be doing this patrol, if need be make two trips - we need all we can get as Comfrey is quite low,” a momentarily frown turned the corners of Mossfreckle’s white maw as he remembered the reason they were so low on Comfrey… how had an apprentice confined to camp hurt themselves that badly… but that was a problem for later, the task on paw was patrols.
”Silverlark [ @Alchemist Kitsune ],” Mossfreckle meowed to the silvery enforcer, he was quite happy to know that this update feline would not let him down, ”Take Pearnose [ @chickadee ] and Flamepaw [ @Katiethewolfchild ] with you to Sunkissed Creek to get Chickweed and Coltsfoot.” Mossy hues fell on the cats gathered in front of him and he continued on with the descriptions, ”Chickweed is a plant with smooth light-green leaves and deeply indented white flowers and Coltsfoot is a short dark-green stemed plant with small, bright-yellow flowers,” two more patrols to go Mossfreckle thought as he turned to the next patrol.
”Mistlewhisker [ @Micanomancy ] you will be leading a patrol to Shadow’s Break,” Mossfreckle meowed to the feline he had just buried a clanmate with, ”You will be collecting Poppies which are red flowers with black centres and Burnet which is a tall thin stemmed plant with clumps of burgundy star shaped flowers. Please take Moonmeadow [ @Theraphosa ]and Squirrelpaw [ @furrensic ] with you, it will do the latter some good to learn some more,” before he continued onto his last patrol announcement he gave the nervy apprentice a soft reassuring smile that barley twitched up the corners of his white maw.
Almost done, he had one more set of felines do announce before his task was over, ”Raggedfang [ @Rogueheart ] take Darkcloud [ @The Doctor ] and Shrewstep [ @gs29513 ] with you to Croaking Swamp,” he called as his mossy hues searched the clearing to make sure the patrol leader had heard him, ”You three will be looking for Dock and Burdock Root. Dock has large oval leaves with some of the lower leaves having distinctive red stems and Burdock Roots come from the Burdock plant which is a tall stemmed plant with purple flowers and dark leaves.”
All the patrols announced, Mossfreckle dipped his angular head to lick his freckled oriental shaped idly, all the while his mossy hues where keenly focused on the camp exit and the clearing so he could watch first hand and make sure the patrols got off without a hitch… and to take care of any problems that may arise or concerns that may need to be addressed.

Flickerlight stared at Mossfreckle in frustration, but he nodded. Fine. He growled, then turned toward the other warriors. DOVEDANCE! STARRYLIGHT! HERB PATROL! He called, bounding to the entrance of camp to wait for them.
[ Just letting you know @/Batt. And @Shellwhisker changed their user. Dw it’s fine
Also, the others may return but I think I may have Flicker be a pain he is and not turn in herbs as I most likely will forget the patrol if no one replies - ]

My posts are always open unless I say otherwise. VM me if you would like to set up a roleplay with one of my characters or even if you just want to talk. If you have a character that knows one of my characters somehow you're welcome to make a starter and mention me whenever you want to roleplay them together. Birdpaw has flock together tier three and bilingual tier three. Toadpaw has silver tongue. Mantiskit has agatha kitty and mind reader. I often end up editing my applications, especially if I'm not using a form so don't consider my first draft to be final as it likely isn't, especially if it's a kit finder. If one of my characters says, thinks, or does something you don't like please don't get angry at me since I'm just trying to roleplay their personalities.
Moonmeadow lifted her head from looking through the prey pile and back towards Mossfreckle as the young tom called out to the warriors and apprentices in the area. Ah, a herb patrol, smart with the raid that's coming up. The medicine would do good to be as filled as possible. Shaking out dark fur, the feline carried themselves on big paws over to the patrol leader, Mistlewhisker, while lazily scanning the area for Squirrelpaw.
Good thing that today was a good day for her eyes, it'd be pretty bad if everything was extra hazy. Prey, the feline could deal with on bad days, each creature having their own clear and distinct scent but herbs....Moonmeadow wasn't too familiar. Whenever the feline was in the medicine den everything was always too mixed and mingled to take in any individual scent. Just thinking about it gave Moonmeadow a headache. They commended Lostspark and Mossfreckle for dealing with it each day.
"Ready when you are, Mistlewhisker." The feline mewed politely as they approached. Poppy, red flowers with black centers, Burnet, tall-stemmed with star shaped flowers. Yeah, Moonmeadow could remember that well enough. Red was nice, broke out against most other colors. Well, at least if Moonmeadow misremembers one of the herbs, which they shouldn't, their clan mates will fill in the blanks, the feline thought with a small, proud purr.

Herbs? Well, if nothing else Shrewstep was familiar enough with the scents that often accompanied them, from his numerous visits into Ebonyfang´s den a long time ago. Generally, sharp. If it smelled sharp and unpleasant, chances are it was an herb. The new medicine cat was kind enough to give them some additional descriptions to go off of, dock and burdock root were apparently their quarries in the swamp, and he imagined Raggedfang would know something seeing as they were given the lead of the patrol. It didn´t matter much to him regardless, he simply had to go and come back with a burdock root or two (they sounded easier to find) and all would be well. For now, he settled down int he clearing and waited for Darkcloud and Raggedfang to show up. @Rogueheart @The Doctor

she takes note of the smile that mossfreckle sends her way - reminds her of rattail in a way. trying her best to shake the nerves away, she pads over to the forming patrol.

Mistlewhisker nodded to Mossfreckle, wordlessly padding to the outskirts of the gathered group and waiting for her clanmates. As they gathered, she found herself pleased with the selection. She smiled at her apprentice, amused at the fact that this was their first patrol together. She lead them out to Shadow's Break.
