sneaky time [stealth training]

[Aolani]

Event [#event]

[the point]

Event [#event]

Yellowtwist slipped around a tree he had been sitting behind when he'd thought of an activity. or rather something to make shadowclan get off it's ass. the entire time he'd been an enforcer, he hadn't hosted an event because um he didn't know so he was doing it now and everyone better join. Nothing in particular was happening right now so he didn't see why they shouldn't besides being lazy.

"Hi again. Do you guys want to be sneaky? Okay good, listen up. I'm aware there are quite a few apprentices in this clan," he stopped himself from adding "and even more idiots" but it would've been fun if he did say that. "and all of those need to learn to be sneaky before they can leave camp without a warrior."

"of course, stealth is about avoiding being seen, it's about being sensed in general. cats have noses and ears. In case you somehow didn't know." honestly he wouldn't put it past them. Enough rambling, time to get to the point. "So, I'll be closing my eyes while also trying to find you guys. But also remember you still don't want to be seen while sneaking." he noted. he'd explain the rest later.

next post on the 16th!
there'll be three rounds of this
the chances of winning are randomized, and you can benefit from different things:
- kitty softpaws can get you an extra roll so long as your cat covered their scent.
- shadow fiend will get you an extra roll.
everyone can join!
rewards are:
warrior- 2k kitty koins -not a lot, sorry, i have to keep my amount of koins fairly similar so i can actually pay for my comms
apprentice - training of your choice (hunting, fighting, or stealth if you really wanted to for some reason)
kit - kit lesson
this counts for stealth training.

MOSQUITOKIT . 6 MOONS . HE/HIM . SHADOWCLAN

Sneaking, huh? Hmm...

Mosquitokit creeps over. He's already trying to be sneaky, just a little, just to see if he has it in him—but, gah, there he goes staggering over an unexpected dip in the ground. Whoops! He fumbles the rest of the way, miraculously avoiding a nose-dive into the ground but looking a mite foolish nonetheless.

"Uh!" Mosquitokit announces himself, ears hot. It was just some light tripping, he'll live! The memory of this moment is just gonna keep him up late tonight is all, no biggie. "I-I...think I should, uh. Come an' practice some. If that's—" he bites off a mousy 'if that's okay' because of course it's okay. Right? He's...well, he's practically apprentice-aged but even if he wasn't, this is important stuff for everyone to know, and Yellowtwist hadn't said anything to negate that. And anyway, he doesn't want to be the sort of cat who needs such tiny things affirmed. Mosquitokit clears his throat.

"Um, thank you also, Yellowtwist. Cool...cool idea. 'M jus' gonnuhhh...wait for—to see who all else, is, doin' this." He'd gotten exceptionally mumbly toward the end there before finally just canning it altogether and, true to his word, sitting around to wait and see who all else is down to clown.

[Morrigan]

Quietpaw
Shadowclan apprentice
Purrks: Mind reader(permanently active) and Shadow fiend(active)
70/100

Hmm, sneaky? Quietpaw blinked indifferently up at Yellowtwist as he went on. What was the enforcer going on about? Ah, stealth training. Should've just said so. Still, if an opportunity for training presented itself then she would take it. Her goal was to become a warrior after all and she couldn't achieve it by just sitting around. She remembered participating in an event like this when she had been a kit. It had been a failure on her part, however she'd learned since then and become more acquainted with the shadows.

Putting her mind in focus mode, the paw awaited the sign to go. Yellowtwist had been rude to her before so this was also a chance to right those wrongs. She was already impatient. When was this thing going to start?! Guess she'd just have to...do nothing for the time being. Giving her chest a few absent laps, Quietpaw silently faded into the shadows encircling them. No harm in preparation. It wasn't like she was cheating.

Palekit
◆ he/him | 5 moons

Sneaking!? Oh boy does Palekit want to learn that. It would be so cool to be able to sneak around the forest, after all that is probably one of ShadowClan's coolest moves. To be able to slip in and out of the darkness and ambush any one in a blink of an eye. Palekit kneaded the ground with excitement before pouncing towards the crowd of cats gathering to hear Yellowtwist's announcement.

Palekit was ready for this challenge. Even though his pale coat would get him caught in a moments notice. Palekit was still ready. To learn. To play. To participate. In a half a moon, Palekit would be eligible to become an apprentice. And this would be a good chance to start his learning early. Also a chance for him to meet other apprentices. Afterall, he'll be hanging out with them in the apprentice den afterwards.

Shadekit
Pure black pelt; dark tabby markings; amber eyes

Shadekit looked up, pricking her ears. Stealth training... She was definitely going to participate She padded forward, already seeing a kit- and Mosquitokit. This should be interesting... Her black fur would give her the advantage in most situations. One of them had white fur; That would be the easiest to spot. Judging by Mosquitokit's stumble as he was arriving, that should be easier too.

The real competition that she was worried about were the apprentices. They would have more training than her and no doubt be harder to spot; Hunting, after all, requires stealth. She lashed her tail. She was so close to becoming an apprentice; She's turning six moons tomorrow. But, of course she'd have to wait. Always. Waiting. It was most annoying.

Shadekit paused, looking towards Mosquitokit again. Should I go to him? He was one of the few cats she actually knew. Perhaps... Perhaps she'd go say hi, if not for anything else. She padded towards him, unconsciously staying to the shadows as she had always done. She came from behind him, just off to the side. "Hello," she meowed, her voice revealing herself.

Mosskit
she/her | 5/6

Although Mosskit was in the middle of her cleaning routine she could spare a space in her packed schedule for some training. Sneaking! How fun! Umm what Mosskit meant was what a splendid opportunity for her to gain some knowledge. She would like to have some prior skills with her time to become an apprentice coming fast. Behind her tail swayed with joy and anticipation as she trotted over to join the growing crowd.

With sharp green eyes, she spotted 3 kits and an apprentice, she didn't have to worry about the kits since they were probably at the same skill level as her but the apprentice! Oh no. She nervously chewed on her lip before smoothing her fur down with her tongue.

Nightpaw

6 Moons | He/Him | No purrks

ShadowClan Apprentice

[3/100]

Nightpaw made his way out of the apprentices' den, truth be told he hadn’t the first idea what to do right now and was rather bored. Wouldn't it be nice if there was some kind of event to join in to pass the time? After all, anything was better than just sitting around doing nothing. Looks like he was in luck, because he heard Yellowtwist's voice and made his way over to listen. A stealth event? Okay, not that he knew the first thing about stealth yet, but why not give it a go?

"This sounds good, I’ve nothing else to do." He mumbled to himself. Then, a little louder, he said "Alright, challenge accepted, should be fun."

Gutspaw wasn't particularly interested in the event at a standpoint. Darkfall had already did his best to teach it stealth, and admittedly teeth reckoned it was perhaps the skill it was best at. Dark fur & silent paws made for a wonderful combination in ShadowClan's territory. Still, Gutspaw was bored and supposed perhaps if it participated in .. a few events then er, well. Bite wanted its warrior name and was starting to seek other ways to show its worth.

So, the apprentice joined the younger cats and awaited for Yellowtwist to start the event. (Ergh, bite wished it wasn't him of all cats hosting it. He had the habit of getting on Gutspaw nerves.)

Dreamwalker

A small but rough smoothened down the fur on her shoulder where Adderpaw sat at the edge of the clearing, green eyes half-closed but subtly shifting as she gazed out over the camp. They were a strange bunch, these cats, but she was slowly but surely getting used to their ways. It wasn't home, yet, not the same way their shed had been in the city, but it was getting there quicker than she had expected.

Glancing up from her work at the black and yellow tom's call, Adderpaw didn't hesitate to get to her paws and approach. She had been shown a few basic stealth things by her mother - how to dance through shadows and place your paws without making noise - but there was more to learn, always more. Besides, these cats ought to know a thing or two if they called themselves the Shadowclan.

GLADEPAW

[open] [none]

Laziness wasn't a particular skill that Gladepaw had ever excelled at.

At least, not by sheer instinct of necessity. He was one constantly wont to fidgeting by some manner or another—where if he wasn't studying the cats around him, busying himself with some inane muse, or off completing a task for the clan, Gladepaw in his typical jocund fashion hounded for something to participate in, to distract from sitting and being...well, lazy. Not that I'm ever lazy, but I'd much rather be doing something than sleeping or watching while waiting. And so it was while he had relegated himself to the apprentice's den that Gladepaw's interest, and soon following his effervescent cheer at the idea of a training, was piqued.

Stealth training? While his coat wasn't the most impressive nor effective for stealth—a motley amalgam of russet, earthy tones laced with hints of gentle fire that would spark some difficulty in hiding amongst the trodden areas—Gladepaw was still determined to succeed in some capacity, even so freshly introduced to the idea. Creeping his way from the den, and spotting Yellowtwist alongside a group of kits and apprentices, Gladepaw took up a spot in the back of small throng of cats, patiently awaiting. Though with no small amount of electric excitement gleaming in his eyes, he was enthralled by the promise of not only skill and training, but also something that would abscond with otherwise wasted (by his own measure) time. His tail flicked in a slow tattoo of graceful movement, the only acknowledgment besides his genuine, subtle grin and articulated posture that he was invigorated for this chance to learn.

Gladepaw waited patiently, then, in a completely not-lazy manner, for the training to commence.
