Warrior Guide

Warriors

Warriors have been trained in the ways of fighting and hunting in addition to the ways of the Warrior Code. They are charged with the responsibility to feed and protect those cats who are elderly or unable to spend time out of camp.

Warriors make up most of a Clan: each cat is, was, or will be a warrior (except medicine cats) unless they die before they become a warrior (eg. Swiftpaw). When a she-cat expects or nurses kits, she temporarily gives up her warrior duties, but takes them up again when her kits are apprenticed. Although, sometimes this is not true, as some cats would rather stay in the nursery to help other arrivals of new kits (such as Daisy and Ferncloud).

Warriors have the following tasks:

Providing defense and security

Border patrols

Marking borders

Evicting or chasing out trespassers

Camp security
Stand guard and raise the alarm if invaded

Protect the camp in the event of attack

Providing food for the Clan in the form of fresh-kill

Serving in offensive operations

Perform preemptive attacks against other Clans, either to eliminate a specific threat or to carry out another objective defined by the Clan Leader
