new-bare arrives march 1st
welcome to dreams of tomorrow
Welcome to Dreams of Tomorrow: A semi-literate warriors RPG! We are a lake-based warriors RPG, set several generations after The Broken Code and A Starless Clan, and featuring the four original Clans; the fifth Clan, SkyClan; and two unique rogue Clans: Yijiao and Viperion! We are an established (LGBTQ+ friendly) community, with Dreams of Tomorrow first posting in 2017.
LEAF-BARE
A cold wind blows over the lake, and a layer of snow covers the ground, added to by a constant flurry of fresh snowfall from clouds. Frost lingers on all remaining plant life, and whatever prey is caught is skinny, and hard to find. Cats become more protective of their territories with resources so scarce, and medicine cats fear that they will have to treat wounds alongside the constant threat of greencough.

Big things are in the works, though not ready for public announcement. However, a few smaller announcements are released! Cats may bypass Clan bans and discouragements as long as they are of unrelated blood, in the age range of cats who need mates!
the drama
After the era of LeopardClan, Icestar's return to power, and his subsequent death, peace has largely returned to the lake. While most of the Clans celebrate this, there are a few cats, both living and dead, who still feel the Clans are being steered in the wrong direction. Concerningly, some shadowy spirits are eager to help the Clans put things right, by way of living warriors - their successors, if you will. These cats are learning from the history of those now gone, and learning from their mistakes before they take their turn at leaving their mark around the lake.
Vendetta, upon the discovery of one his past paramours and oldest friends bleeding out, and mutilated beyond belief on his throne, has had a fire lit under him in regards to his group and the way that he runs things. The monarch of Viperion was on a warpath, and no one is innocent, nor safe, from Viperion's wrath until the culprit is found. Even upon Vendetta's death, Regina has carried on with his path of violence and revenge, and it seems no cat is safe until the culprit is found, regardless of what blood is spilt in the meantime.

Recent Happenings
The cold chill in the air has ThunderClan on guard and ready to prepare for a harsh approaching leaf-bare. The Clan will find this season harsh, with many elders now to provide for, as well as a constant stream of kits who always seem to be hungry. Hollystar and Cinnamonroll are carefully structuring their patrols to make sure every cat is fed. Basilheart is already fretful, with her paws busy taking care of a terribly ill Moonlight, whose mysterious illness doesn't seem to be lightening up. Basilheart and Vixenpaw frantically tend to their supplies of catmint and other useful herbs, worried about how the Clan will cope with so many old and young kits who will be vulverable to greencough.
Those In Charge
Hollystar is a proud and confident ThunderClan leader, one who takes ThunderClan's values to heart. She values reason and logic in all her decisions. A very cheerful cat, Sombermoon always looking to keep things calm and enjoyable, does the best he can to be neutral and reach fair, though sometimes firm, conflict resolution. Basilheart is a kind and soft medicine cat, with a deep connection to StarClan. She cherishes her Clanmates and works hard to make sure that they all stay happy and healthy. Vixenpaw is a medicine apprentice who has a gift for communicating with StarClan. She isn't afraid to be sassy with those who test her patience.
Bans and Encouragements
ThunderClan is a Clan that's fairly even in numbers, though a bit on the larger side, and with a bit of a gender gap. Age dispersion is well managed across the Clan, though new elders are currently highly discouraged due to the sheer number of them. Litters are currently open in ThunderClan, though with a note to keep an eye on age dispersion. Genders are a bit unbalanced in ThunderClan currently, with she-cats outnumbering the toms, which has lead to a soft-ban on new ThunderClan she-cats for the time being. But, as always, nonbinary cats are very appreciated.

Recent Happenings
After the turbulent leafbare that ShadowClan suffered with mass losses, Maplestar thought that she was finally in the clear as leafbare rolled around. However, as more cars started turning up dead at the borders seemingly to rogue attacks, ShadowClan's former deputy Redflower lost the last bit of control she had and aimed to kill Maplestar. Failing in doing this, she was sentenced to public execution. Maplestar, aging and distrustful, now keeps a sharp watch over her clan to stomp out any last bits of unrest and betrayal before they happen, and has a new deputy to help her retain power. Scarletfang, Redflower's own daughter, has risen to the challenge of helping Maplestar keep ShadowClan on the path to power. Icestar continues making moves from the afterlife, and more strange faces keep showing up in the camp. It's turbulent times in ShadowClan, one only hopes they'll pull through in one piece. However, they might just have a leg up in advantage over other clans as Maplestar makes a deal with an outsider in secrecy...
Those In Charge
Maplestar has settled into her role as leader quite nicely, and is keeping up the same traits that Icestar had ShadowClan known for: strong and fearless. Scarletfang is a fierce deputy, but has tamed since the passing of her mother. Regardless, she guides strictly and without hesitation. Rowanspirit is a quiet tom who is highly observant, and takes his duty quite seriously, but has a deep love of life, his Clan, and StarClan.
Bans and Encouragements
ShadowClan is a group that is reasonably balanced in numbers, though with a large gender divide. Ages are fairly well balanced in ShadowClan, but elders are encouraged, due to the near absence of them in the Clan. New litters in ShadowClan are momentarily discouraged until the current batch of kits has a chance to grow up a bit, and allow an age balance. Toms are highly encouraged in ShadowClan at the moment, due to the heavy lean toward she-cats, leading to new ShadowClan she-cats to be currently soft-banned. Though nonbinary cats are always welcome.

Recent Happenings
Deciding enough is enough, Turtlestar has closed the borders on her clan to allow them a chance to rebuild and become unified without the interference of other clans. Ryewhisker and Flowerpaw are still allowed to come and go as they please, but Turtlestar keeps a small band for traveling to gatherings. She has a sharp and keen eye on the rogue warriors the clan had taken in within recent moons, and is ready to give judgement should it be needed. For now, she is accepting no new cats from outside her own clan. Loners seeking sanctuary are turned away at the border for another clan, and those who wish to leave her borders in favor of another clan are allowed, but must never look back. Shadewhisker has recently retired as well, having an unexpected illness plague him and keep him from being able to perform his duties. In his stead, Turtlestar has named Lilydawn WindClan's new deputy. The clan are antsy with the many changes, but Turtlestar remains a fierce and guarded leader, guiding her clan back to unity and strength.
Those In Charge
Having come into her own, Turtlestar reigns with beauty and grace. Her leadership is firm, yet fair. Though cautious, she remains peaceful. Lilydawn is settling into her position as deputy with ease and is incredibly driven. Sweet yet firm, she guides with warmth and confidence. Flowerpaw is a gentle, compassionate medicine cat with an empathetic healing ability and an unshakable faith.
Bans and Encouragements
WindClan is currently the smallest Clan around the lake, with a high need for more cats. Age divides are fairly balanced among warriors and senior warriors, but there is a need for new kits and new apprentices in the Clan. Litters are currently encouraged in WindClan. Genders are fairly balanced in WindClan, with a small lead to she-cats, but both genders are very encouraged. Nonbinary cats are also certainly very welcome.

Recent Happenings
As Blackstar settles into the role he was thrust into overnight with Mintheart and Ripplepool at his shoulder, RiverClan is aiming to see a time of peace within it's borders. However, as the leafbare snow melts away to allow newleaf flowers to push through, RiverClan's territory has swelled up and proved to have devastating consequences in the form of floods. Many cats were lost, but RiverClan has bounced back to be as strong as they once were. Blackstar is confident of the moons to follow, and he plans on playing his cards wisely.
Those In Charge
Though young and new to his leadership duties, Blackstar is eager and confident in his ability to follow in his predecessor's pawsteps. He is determined to prove himself and lead RiverClan to become a strong and united force while keeping RiverClan's values in the forefront. Despite her tragedy, Mintheart is rising to the challenge of being a competent deputy and is working towards organization to make RiverClan a well-run Clan. Ripplepool is a quiet and thoughtful medicine cat with a knack for herbs and great sympathy for others.
Bans and Encouragements
RiverClan is currently the largest Clan around the lake, and one with a very large gender imbalance, so new characters permitted will be very limited. Ages are fairly well balanced at the moment, though young apprentices and kits are currently highly discouraged due to the sheer number of them. Litters are currently soft-banned in RiverClan, until ages are balanced out and other Clans can catch up in number. Genders are severely unbalanced in RiverClan, with she-cats dramatically outnumbering toms, leading to a ban on new she-cat characters. However, toms and non-binary cats may be permitted with staff consultation.
skyclan

Recent Happenings
SkyClan is, like their neighbors around the lake, preparing for many moons of hard times with an upcoming leaf-bare. Tanysight is gathering herbs in preparation for illness, with whispers of warning from her StarClan guides. Fallenstar and Nettleheart are organizing patrols carefully, hoping to keep the Clan well fed during the coldest, hungriest seasons. However, that is not all that is on their mind. After all, several SkyClan cats have gone missing, and though Duneleopard's return has been a comfort, there is still mystery as to why their cats have left, and where they could have gone.
Those In Charge
Fallenstar is a young but dedicated leader, ready to work hard to serve her Clan well. She holds her own in a fight, but will always stop to listen to those in need. Nettleheart is a strong SkyClan deputy, who's proud of his Clan and firm in his choices. Tansysight is a quiet and secluded medicine cat, but incredibly gifted with her connection to StarClan.
Bans and Encouragements
SkyClan is currently a well balanced Clan in numbers, though with a bit of a gender disbalance. Ages are fairly well balanced, though there is a need for more warriors of various ages to help with surpluses of kits becoming apprentices. However, young warriors are slightly discouraged at the moment, to help balance ages in the Clan. Litters are currently open in SkyClan. Genders are just a little off-balance in SkyClan, with a need for toms to help catch up in number to the she-cats. Though nonbinary cats are always welcome.
yijiao
news | leadership | bans
Recent Happenings
Helfeirch and Carnivore have proven their ferocity around the lake as their power continues to grow and their contracts continue to raise. It's only a matter of time before they start to branch out and make themselves more known, but with a God as the son of a famous nightmare around the lake and another God trailing after a she-cat, rogues and loners around the lake wonder how their relationship is going to end up playing out. Despite that, Yijiao has had it's own fair share of problems, suffering from the same bought of greencough as the rest of the lake and even seeing a smidge of murder and unrest in their ranks.
Those In Charge
Yijiao is run by the Teller, a dual commander and spiritual leader, and their right hand is the vice. Helfeirch is a strong and passionate Teller, who reveres the gods but doesn't tolerate those who skip out on work. Carnivore, while young and new to the position, is shaping up to be a ruthless and efficient future Teller.
Bans and Encouragements
Though smaller than the Clans, Yijiao is reasonably balanced in their numbers at this point in time. Age groups are fairly even, with a good dispersion in all age groups. Assassins also have a lead on numbers compared to bounty hunters. Litters in Yijiao are currently open. Toms are also encouraged to help catch up in number to she-cats, who currently lead the gender gap. Nonbinary cats, however, are certainly always welcome.
viperion
news | leadership | bans
Recent Happenings
Chaos has once again returned to Viperion as they find yet another one of their monarchs dead, and from brutal circumstances. Regina has swooped in to take his place - her place - and is excersising her authority in Viperion, making it clear she is now the cat to fear. She has retained Vendetta's royalty, but expanded to include cats of her own, further extending her authority upon the others.But Vendetta's presence is not completly gone from Viperion, as his plans for revenge live on. Regina is carrying on her predecessor's work, sending trusted cats into the Clans to spy for her, and feed her crucial information for a future encounter.
Those In Charge
Viperion is ruled by the monarch, and their right hand is the lieutenant. Regina is an intelligent and brutal monarch who's deadset on making sure the legacy of Drought and Viperion lives on. Strategy is the name of her game. Outsiders are currently under heavy scrutiny, unless they are vouched for by a trustworthy cat currently within Viperion's ranks.
Bans and Encouragements
Though Viperion is smaller than the Clans, they are fairly well balanced in numbers. Ages are fairly diverse, though there is currently a heavy encouragement for new characters 40 moons and older due to the gap of ages. Young fighters are also discouraged due to the recent flood of them. However, kits and cadets are welcome, and litters are open in Viperion. Genders are currently fairly balanced, with a slight favoring towards toms, though nonbinary cats are always welcome.

How to Customize Your Profile
Mar 10, 2017 0:21:35 GMT -5
Post by Admin on Mar 10, 2017 0:21:35 GMT -5
Hello everyone! If you've made this way to this thread, you're interested in how to customize your profile - and mini-profile - to look like how other members on the site have it. For this walk-through, we will be using uiido.♥ 's profile as an example. Follow the steps and the handy pictures below and you'll be looking great in no time!
Step One | Edit your profile - The very first step you need to do to edit your profile is to go to your profile! Just look at the top navigation bar and click "menu". From there, you can see on the side bar "edit profile." That's the fastest way to do it. The other way is to go to your profile itself (by clicking on the avatar) and clicking on the little pencil button as shown below.
Once you click "edit profile", you're automatically redirected to the "avatar" page. You can see on the tabs that each page links somewhere different. In this tutorial we will only cover "Avatar" and "Personal" tabs.
Step Two | Customize your avatar - Members are automatically provided with a warriors themed avatar, and it will appear as the default avatar, but almost everyone likes to make theirs more personal. To change it, it's very easy. Highlighted in the red box is the option to either link to an avatar you wish to use, or directly upload one from your own computer, just follow the steps provided on screen! If you wish to return to the warriors avatar the site uses, please click the option to use your default avatar. (We suggest using a 150x150 sized avatar to look best with the skin!) Don't forget to save it!
Step Three | The Personal Tab - After you've changed your avatar, there's not much left you can do on the "Avatar" page, so you'll need to hit the "Personal" tab, the one just to the right of the avatar tab, where you will be redirected to the page shown below. This page can help you change a lot, but in this tutorial, we will only cover your display name, most recent status, signature, 270x400 Mini Profile Picture, age, pronouns, plotter link, tracker link, and google sheets tracker link. Other fields, such as location will not be displayed on any of our profiles at this time, so it is optional to fill them out or to leave them blank.
Step Four | Display name - Your display name should be pretty easy to explain and very easy to edit - it is the very first field on this page! You may change your display name at any time to just about anything you wish. This is the name your profile will have and the name that will appear if you are tagged in a thread.
Step Five | Most recent status - To anyone who has used a proboards v4 forum before, this field works exactly like your personal text. If you are new to proboards, this field simply lets you say any text you would like to display on your profile, and can be updated at any time. Many members like to put favorite quotes or song lyrics in their profiles. Feel free to try it out!
Step Six | Signature - Would you like to see some personal text or images in your signature, right below your posts? This field is right for you, feel free to add just about anything you would like! However, please be sure to size check your images, so they do not stretch the board. You won't see the signature in your profile, however, only following posts. Our signatures are UBBC code ready!
Step Seven | Mini-profile image - When you first join the site, you will see you have a default hover image in your profile and mini-profile, but you can change that to any picture you desire. This is the image your avatar will "hover" over in the mini-profile, but you can look at it unobstructed whenever your mouse is away from the picture. For best results, select an image that is 270x400. All you have to do then is add the image link into the "270x400 Mini Profile Picture" space and save!
Step Eight | Member Age - This category is really simple and really easy to fill out! You just need to put what age you are! It will automatically fill in "years old" so please just put your name as a number or write it out completely if you'd rather!
Step Nine | Gender Identity - Hopefully this category is pretty straight forward - what do you want us to call you? "He/him", "she/her", "they/them"? That's all you have to put in the box! It's optional to add what gender you are as well, the worlds more diverse than just males, females, and nonbinary folk!
Step Ten | Tracker Link - If you've been here long enough to build up more characters than you can reasonably list in your signature, you should probably consider making a Tracker of your very own. And, you don't even have to take up signature space to add a link to it - you can add it in this spot! How do you do that? All you need to do is grab the link to your tracker, paste it into the "Tracker" slot, and you're good to go! It'll appear in your mini-profile and in your profile as links labeled "track".
Step Eleven | Plotter Link - Do you have a "Want" or "Drama" seeking thread? Trying to find the right plot for the right character? Well, let everyone know by putting the link in the "plot page form! Once you've added it in, it'll show in both your mini-profile and profile as a link named "plot"!
Step Twelve | Google Sheets - If you've been around as long as some of us, you have a fair bit of cats. Perhaps you have too much to keep neatly in a tracker thread, which is perfectly ok! Or, you need a quick reference that doesn't mean hunting through a 10 page long tracker thread, so some of us have created Google Sheet Trackers! If you need assistance setting one up, feel free to contact uiido.♥ or kaeya.♦ ! They'd be more than willing to help you out.
Don't forget to save once you've finished editing!
