Welcome to Your Site Name!
Quite far from our southern cousins, five clans of wild cats make their home in a harsh northern climate, just below the tree line. Our ancestors have walked these snow covered lands for countless moons, and they leave us gifts. Warm fur, light bodies, and keen instincts will assure we never starve in the unforgiving north. SnowClan, GlacierClan, ArcticClan and IceClan roam the pine forests and snow covered plains. StarClan walks vigil above us, in the snow sprinkled lands of silverpelt. Despite our gifts, and our ancestors protection, life in the four clans is no easy task. We are the Clans of Winter, we make our home in the most fathomable and inhospitable place on earth.
The Clans have successfully made new territory in the new lands. Even so, the lands are still foreign to the cats, and all four clans would need time to be completely familiar with their new territories. Everyday the cats of the winter clans learn something new, about their lands, and about themselves. After a few moons living in the new area, the cats soon discovered that they truly are not alone in the forest - a twoleg facility have been quietly running; hidden in the valleys and cliffs of the mountains which shelters the cats from the outside world. How would the cats react to their twolegged neighbours? You decide.
The Genetically Modified Cats (aka. GEMs) are a strange breed of cats found hanging around near the white twoleg nest. Even though they look like normal cats, these cats are abnormally stronger and fiercer than other feral cats. They are rarely seen outside a group and are too dangerous to approach. No one knows where they came from or what are they except that they have something to do with the Laboratory.

Never made it as a wise man
A small pale beige tabby watched as Bramblepaw shuddered from recieving his first life: courage. Courage was one of the more gentle lifes. Ringedpaw looked at his old den-mate. It seemed so long ago that he'd been on the real world, with normal apprentice worries. Bramblepaw was being made leader far to early, and Ringedpaw had volunteered to watch over his path day and night, to try and repay the mistakes he had made when he lived. He was also giving him one of the nine lifes, the one which had killed Ringedpaw. This next life felt so much stronger. It was somethin which Ringedpaw had carried around with him since being a moon old kit. It burnt, it suffocated, it stabbed. It had almost driven Ringedpaw insane. It was a dangerous thing which shouldn't be underestimated. Ringedpaw had learnt the hard way.
Couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Once Bramblepaw had recovered from Applequake's life, Ringedpaw stepped forward from the circle and stood before the burdened apprentice. 'Bramblepaw, I give you this life with a warning, and also a story. My story.' Ringedpaw stopped and looked Bramblepaw stright in his eyes. He wondered how much of the tale he already knew. The warrior's often tried to protect apprentices and never told them the full story of anything. 'When me and my sister Skypaw were tiny kits, our father decided that he wanted to take us into the rouge lands. Our mother, Tigerlilly, didn't want him too. He didn't like that, so he murdered her. Then he ran away, because he was a coward. I was so angry, at what he'd done, and that nobody had punished him. I felt like I had been betrayed; by everyone. So I became obsessed with revenge. I tried everything, to find that murderer. That was my mistake, and what I warn you against. The lines between justice and revenge can easily become blurred. I though that I was doing Tigerlilly justice, but I was silmply seeking revenge for myself. That was the mistake which killed me.'
Tired of living like a blind man
Ringedpaw sighed and looked at his feet. His life had been a structure made from mistakes which was so precarious it eventaully had collapsed. He had ruined his life through revenge because he thought he was doing justice. It was his duty now to prevent it happening again. 'Bramblepaw you are far better than I ever was. You'll make a great leader to our clan.' The pale tabby truly believed what he'd said, and smiled. In life, it was rare to see Ringedpaw smiling. It made his entire face light up and it showed the ghost a young, cheeky apprentice. 'With this life, I give you justice. I ask you to use it to judge the actions of others, and then to act upon your judgement correctly. You will never make the same mistake which I did. I am sorry Bramblepaw. And thank you'. Ringedpaw touched his nose to Bramblepaw's and closed his eyes, wishing so hard that he could change his past. He stepped back to join the other Arctic Clan ancestors and watched Bramblepaw recieving the life.

[Don't wake me] Her yellow eyes danced as she watched the young tom gain his lives. She watched him her eyes focusing on his spirit. She could see the shimmering light of his inner being, his passion. Everything about him shimmered in the starlight. She nodded as Ringedpaw moved forward, and passed the life into the body of the young apprentice soon to be leader. He returned to their circle and she knew that it was her turn. She stepped forward, her claws digging into the starlight of the ground beneath her paws.
['Cause I don't wanna leave this dream] She spoke, her words coming forth in an even and melodic manner. Her words were lyrics [Don't wake me] ['Cause I never seem to stay asleep enough] [When it's you I'm dreaming of] [I don't wanna wake up]
