CreekClan

CreekClan is one of the five Valley Clans. They were made from the remnants of ShadowClan and RiverClan after the Lake Clans disbanded. They were founded by Creektail of RiverClan, but when he died in the War of the Valley, his brother Bramblingstar lead in his stead.

Description
CreekClan is known for having ‘blood in the water’. They are fiercely brutal over defending their Clan’s territory, and pride themselves over their strong fighting power in comparison to the other Clans. That’s not to say they don’t lose, but they never give up even in the face of defeat. They mainly have survived off of voles, mice, a few rabbits, but their main source of prey is the fish in the water surrounding them. They are known for their powerful muscles and swimming strength, but are notorious for being somewhat slow for a cat.

Territory
CreekClan is settled on the North-Eastern side of the Star Peak. They live in fertile, almost marshy territory with vast, wide creeks trailing all around it, and even a small lake nestled near the forest. Warriors are trained from when they can walk to make swimming a second nature to be able to survive in this area, and those that do not learn are social outcasts. Landmarks of the territory include:
 * CreekClan Camp: Nestled on a small island where three streams connect, it is covered with reeds that they use to make their dens. There are a few stepping stones to let the ‘drypaws’ into the camp, but the Clan is expected to swim back unless it is necessary.


 * The Shores: The favorite of CreekClan’s hunting grounds, the sand stores stretches from one border to another along the Great River.


 * Storm’s Marsh: Named after Stormstream, who navigated her way through the northern marshes near the streams. Many such prey like frogs and fish lurk, but so do many dangers like drowning and predators. Only the bravest or foolish would attempt to hunt there.


 * Tanglegrowth: The dense thicket of woods is used as a place for battle training and hunting. During the night, the fireflies light up the forest, and mentors will have nightly battle sessions during the new moon to sharpen their apprentice’s claws.


 * The Lake: The lake and the surrounding areas is where many of the Clan would gather to talk and play. New warriors have their vigil here at the edge of the Lake, watching over their Clan as they reflect upon their new status as a warrior.
