Audition Guide for Deputy

[Smokechaser]

DEPUTY AUDITIONS


Hello, Kitty of HollowClan! This is where you will audition as Deputy, since I currently do not have one. Down below you will see three scenarios. These scenarios might include the Leader going away and such. But first. *Ahem*
Do you understand that if the leader ever becomes inactive or dies in RP, you will have to take charge of HollowClan both OOC and IC? If so, please continue to audition.
Good Luck!







Scenario One:
Silentstar went out to the Moonstone and hasn't been back since dusk, and it is now sunhigh. The clan has grown anxious and patrols need to be arranged. 
What do you do?







Scenario Two:
Silentstar has assigned you to lead a border patrol, but you have caught scent of a Fox in the territory. The patrol isn't even halfway finished and this is a dire situation, you don't want a fox to run into the camp and kill kits.
What do you do?







Scenario Three: 
Silentstar has grown ill and is unable to do anything. He's left you in charge while he is sleeping. There is rumors running through the camp that Silentstar is going to lose a life. 
What do you do to reassure them?








If you aren't chosen as Deputy, don't get discouraged. You'll still be a warrior and may become the next deputy, who knows?

Scenario One: 

Silentstar went out to the Moonstone and hasn't been back since dusk, and it is now sunhigh. The clan has grown anxious and patrols need to be arranged.  

What do you do? 

Hickoryfoot would narrow his gaze at the entrance, knowing the clan has grown anxious of his leaving for the Moonstone. Turning, he would slowly make his way towards the gathering space below the high-ledge to make an announcement. As Warriors and Apprentices gather around, he would look at all of them in a moment of silence before clearing his throat. "Silentstar will be unable to assign the sun-high patrols, and so I will until he returns home. I would like two border patrols, each made up of two warriors and two apprentices. As for the hunting patrol, I would like the same thing. Spiderbite and Frostclaw, two of our senior warriors, will lead the two border patrols; as for the hunting patrol, I'll let Crowpath and Littlestream choose who they want within their groups. Please go about as if Silentstar was here all along; he is strong and is certain to return safely to us. You must not get discouraged by his late arrival." with a dip of head, he would slowly go around camp, making sure everyone was sure to be doing what they usually did; the kits safely playing within or outside the Nursery, the apprentices cleaning the Elders' nests, and Warriors making their way out of camp to patrol.

Scenario Two: 

Silentstar has assigned you to lead a border patrol, but you have caught scent of a Fox in the territory. The patrol isn't even halfway finished and this is a dire situation, you don't want a fox to run into the camp and kill kits. 

What do you do? 

Hickoryfoot would let his amber gaze fall upon the route they needed to go down for their patrol, then towards the scent trail the fox had left behind. The frown on his face clearly meant he was a bit stuck in thought. As he would turn to his patrol, he would meow.  "Spiderbite will come with me to follow this scent and see where it leads, the two other warriors and an apprentice will finish patrol. Once you're done, quickly report back to me and we'll see where the fox is. Be prepared while on the border, and if there's a problem, try to find one of us to come and help." Turning on his heels, the tom would flick his tail to Spiderbite and quickly lead the way after the fox; careful where he turned to make sure not to run into the fox. He was only going to see if it was heading towards the camp; if not he would manage to get back to the patrol and finish before reporting to camp and asking for a patrol to go and find this fox.

Scenario Three:  

Silentstar has grown ill and is unable to do anything. He's left you in charge while he is sleeping. There is rumors running through the camp that Silentstar is going to lose a life.  

What do you do to reassure them?


Hickoryfoot would let his keen eyes scan across the group of cats murmuring to each other about the leader, and would slowly make his way to the edge of the group before he spoke up. "I know Silentstar is very ill, but you have to have more faith in him. He's strong- the reason he became leader was because he could handle such situations in such a brave manner. You have to give him time to recover, and not make him worry himself." his tone was serious, though it hinted sympathy for the cats that worried for their leader, yet it remained strong as he spoke. To give them hope that the leader wouldn't lose a life, he said Silentstar will need the plumpest of all fish and the clearest water to be  soaked up with some moss.

Scenario One:
Silentstar went out to the Moonstone and hasn't been back since dusk, and it is now sunhigh. The clan has grown anxious and patrols need to be arranged.
What do you do?

Addertail paces the small clearing beneath the gathering stone, his tail flicking from side-to-side. The Clan has started to make him anxious, the stress from each cat hitting him and causing a wave of nausea. What if Silentstar had been attacked? What if he was dying somewhere or taken captive by one of the other Clans? The tom is dragged from his dark thoughts as an elder, Whitefang, approaches him, his arthritis giving him a slight limp.

"Addertail, you need to send out patrols for the day. Everyone is anxious and it'd be a good idea to do so." The pure white cat gives Addertail a bleary yellow stare before limping over to the far side of the clearing, not waiting for a reply.

The newly-named deputy watches the bony cat walk off, worry gnawing at his insides like a parasite. Finally, he decides that it would be wise to send out another patrol. The Clan had to be safe and fed.

With his tail low to the ground, the cat steps onto a low rock and calls for attention. "Foxtail, you will be leading a hunting patrol with Dapplepaw, Wooltail, Pepperpelt, and Brackenfur." His eyes then sought out a certain dark grey cat. "Jaggedstone, you will lead a patrol along BoulderClan territory. Take Shallowmoon, Goosewing, Ratwhisker, and Fallowpaw." He would send out another patrol along LichenClan territory in a little while. For now, he had greater things to worry about.


Scenario Two:
Silentstar has assigned you to lead a border patrol, but you have caught scent of a Fox in the territory. The patrol isn't even halfway finished and this is a dire situation, you don't want a fox to run into the camp and kill kits.
What do you do?


The tom stops as his nose catches the scent of fox, his eyes widening. It's a fresh scent. The two warriors and apprentice stop when you do. "We'll need to get back to Silentstar. Quickly."

The tom begins to pick up his pace. He hopes that the fox hasn't already gotten into camp. The patrol runs through thick foliage, burrs tugging on their skin but they all seem to understand the urgency in getting back to camp to warn them.

Finally, they run through the entrance - a giant hollowed out log felled long ago. Cats look up from where they share tongues, curious as to why the patrol had returned so early. Addertail breaks away from his patrol to bound up to high ledge, knowing that his leader would likely be resting in his den. He doesn't wait for permission.

The tawny cat is curled up in a nest of moss. His head raises as the tom enters, brows pulling together in confusion. His eyes are slightly bleary.

"Silentstar, there's a fox near camp. I want to take a patrol out to scare it off." --

Scenario Three:
Silentstar has grown ill and is unable to do anything. He's left you in charge while he is sleeping. There are rumors running through the camp that Silentstar is going to lose a life.
What do you do to reassure them?

Addertail had heard the rumors for two days now. He hadn't wanted to get too involved in it, lest he be yelled at by Silentstar, but it is apparent that he will have to once the rumors reach the nursery.

His breaking point is when a fat, angry queen - a bad combination - confronts him. He decides to call a meeting at sunhigh.

The cats of HollowClan gather under the highledge, most likely wondering why they were called and the reasoning for Addertail being up on the 'leaders-only' rock. He decides to get right to the point in case his Clanmates start getting agitated. "I know that many of you think that Silentstar is going to lose a life. This isn't true." Liar. "He shows signs of getting better. For now, in his time of weakness, he has let me take charge. I do not wish that you would worry - what would he say? He'd be insulted that you think of him as a weak leader." Addertail lashes his tail. "He is one of the strongest cats I know. You won't lose him today or tomorrow to some small sickness." Another lie.

Unfortunately, Addertail is getting good at lying.

Scenario 1 :
Lilyshimmer looked at the slowly growing anxious clan. Sitting back on her paws she flicked her tail to her friend. "Mousefur, go to the nursery and tell the queens that Silentstar will be back soon and not to worry. Flicking her tail to her other friend she let out another mew. "Lizardheart go get three warriors and bring them here to me." Seeing both the cats nod she let out a yowl and jumped onto the highledge. "Cats of Hollowclan," She began. "Silentstar has gone to share tongues with our warrior ancestors and we cannot louse faith that he is out there, coming home to us." Seeing the cats nod somewhat she continued. "For now we will pretend like Silentstar is still here watching our camp. I have asked Lizzardheart to fetch three other cats to go out for a patrol around the boarder." Looking over she nodded to Lizzardheart and his three comrades. "You may go." She mewed. Looking back over the group of cats she let out a sigh. "Thank you for understanding." She pointed her tail towards three other cats. "You three, go out and see if you can find us anything to eat. The queens and elders need to be fed first. Also the apprentices should take a warrior and go fetch moss for the nests. Looking out at the cats she nodded. "Meeting dismissed." She yowled. Suddently she turned. Silentstar was walking into camp and looking at her. //Good job.// She herd him mew. Smiling she flicked her ears. "It was the least I could do." She spoke, touching noses with him. Looking over towards the hunting patrol she walked over and joined it. She gave her chest a quick lick then turned and followed them out to the river.


Scenario 2 :
Looking over at Mothwing and Lizzardheart she spoke in a quick mew. "Silentstar has arranged me to lead a patrol and gather some of the warriors to go scent the boarder you two will come with me and see if we can find anything. Ill see you at the entrance." Nodding she went to wait for them. Soon all the cats had joined her and were walking towards the boarder. Suddently her neck fur rose when she caught the scent of something. Glanceing to the others she noticed they also had caught the scent. Padding quickly threw the undergrowth she came upon a dog-like creature. Steping on a leaf the creature spun around. "Fox!" She yowled and hissed then slashed out a paw. "Mothwing, Lizzardheart we need to get the fox away from so close-" She stopped to doge the attack from the fox. "Now!" She let out a hiss and moved her tail for the signal. Having Mothwing and Lizzardheart grab onto the foxes shoulders she saw the fox lift its head and yelp. Throwing her head up she lunged for its throat and dug her fangs into it. Keeping a tight hold of the fox it squirmed and continued to snap and yelp at the cats. "Don't let it get to camp!" She hissed and saw Lizzardheart leap off and swipe at the foxes eyes. "Drive it back!" She ordered Mothwing and instantly the cream warrior did as told. Reaching her claws out she swiped the foxed hindquarters. "And don't come back!" She hissed as it fled into the forest. "Are you guys okay?" Turning she examined the two. Flicking her tail she walked back. "We must tell Silentstar about this, though it will be easy to guess." She mewed.


Scenario 3 :
Padding around Silentstars den she let out a frustrated meow. "Why Starclan?" She mumbled. Suddenly a kit ran over to her. //Is Silentstar goanna die?// It yelped. Blinking her eyes in confusion she bent down and spoke softly. "Where did you hear that sweet?" She mewed. //Oh. A bunch of other cats were talking about it so I thought I ask you!// Sweeping her tail over the kits ears gently she sighed. "Don't worry. Go back to your mother now, im sure she's wondering where you are." Watching the kit bounce off towards the nursery she sighed and jumped onto the highledge. "Cats of Hollowclan!" She yowled. "Again these are hard times for the clan but we still cannot louse faith in our leader /or/ Starclan." Glancing at the cats she let out a faint harshness in her mew. "I expect more from you and so does Silentstar. You should be ashamed of yourselves for all your disbelief in our leader. Now the kits are involved with this and I expect that so are all the rest of you." Flicking her tail she sighed. "Now, we wont louse faith correct?" Hearing a yowl of approval she turned. "Id like some of you to take hunting patrols and boarder patrols out. We should be working instead of mewing around stupidness. Do you hear?" Flicking her ears forward she herd a approval from all the cats. "Good, now lets get working." She mewed.

[Cookie202 - Aspenwing]

Keep in mind, I make up names for all of my scenarios.  xD

Scenario One:
Silentstar went out to the Moonstone and hasn't been back since dusk, and it is now sunhigh. The clan has grown anxious and patrols need to be arranged. 
What do you do?

Aspenwing flickered his tail, watching the felines of his Clan with growing worry. He had been anxious about his leader not returning for so much time, but he also knew that the Clan needed to be cared for, and organized. Getting to his paws, clearing his throat, the tom leapt atop the highrock, unsure if he was to be up there while arranging patrols, but he felt the need to confront every cat. "Cats of  HollowClan!" The reddish-brown feline called out. He drew his yellow gaze over the clearing, waiting for his fellow HollowClanners to settle themselves before continuing on. "I know you are all now aware that our leader has not yet returned. Even though I am positive he will be back any moment, there is patrols that need arranging. I will organize a group of felines to go out in amp, leaving some here to await Silentstar's return." He called out. The tom eyed the cats that murmured to each other, waiting for silence, before continuing on again. "Falcongaze, Leafdapple, and Fallenflower. Take Swanpaw with you on a border patrol, make sure to cover all of our scent marks thoroughly. Gooseflight, Dawnflicker, and Pebblepaw, I want the three of you to go on a hunting patrol, I recommend the reed beds, as there has been plentiful prey there. The rest of us will stay and guard the camp, awaiting for Silentstar's return," the red-spotted male called out. Watching as each of the cats he called out slowly moved each other into groups that he had assigned, the HollowClan brute nodded slowly, flickering his ears. /Silentstar will be pleased./ He thought silently, before bunching his muscles, to leap off of his leader's perch.







Scenario Two:
Silentstar has assigned you to lead a border patrol, but you have caught scent of a Fox in the territory. The patrol isn't even halfway finished and this is a dire situation, you don't want a fox to run into the camp and kill kits.
What do you do?

Aspenwing growled softly to himself, glancing to the cats gathered around him, noting their expressions. "Right. You all know the importance of this situation. Me and Dawnflicker will follow the scent of the fox, and make sure it is nowhere near camp. Falcongaze and Pebblepaw, I want both of you to return to camp and warn Silentstar that there is a fox in our land. Gooseflight and Fallenflower, I want you two to finish up the patrol, but be quick about it, and on alert. If you confront the fox, do not fight it unless you are required to. Two warriors against a fully grown fox is an unfair match." The reddish-spotted male growled. He turned about the patrol, watching to see if each of them agreed to his plans. Nodding to himself, the tom turned to Dawnflicker. "We need to be silent, and on the correct side of the wind, where the fox will not scent us. I do not want to confront this creature without help," the HollowClan feline growled softly. Turning towards the scent trail and large, canine-like tracks in the soil, the tom sighed, before trotting on, tail swishing behind him.




Scenario Three: 
Silentstar has grown ill and is unable to do anything. He's left you in charge while he is sleeping. There is rumors running through the camp that Silentstar is going to lose a life. 
What do you do to reassure them?

Aspenwing watched his Clanmates whispering, flickering his ears as he heard their rumors, spreading faster than wildfire. /This is getting out of hand./ He thought to himself. He would have to reassure his Clanmates, but not make a big deal out of it, or it would appear that he was simply trying to make them feel better, rather than speaking the truth. Trotting to the center of the clearing, the tom spoke up, jaws parting so he could call out for all cats to hear. "Cats of HollowClan!" He called out. The reddish-brown-tinted male awaited for the faces of the felines to turn to him, before continuing. "I have heard rumors, going around the camp, that I will not say. But, I will assure you, Silentstar will be perfectly alright. He is a strong, fighting tom, and will make it through this small illness with ease. This small amount of time in his den is to only let him rest, and regain his strength, so he may lead us again with as many lives as before his sickness. Have faith in our leader, as he has given faith to us that we will remain calm," he called out. The HollowClanner flashed a small smile, happy with this small speech he had given. It had even reassured himself. The tom, with a nod to his Clanmates, turned back to where he had been sitting. Placing down his haunches, the male curled his tail around his paws, watching his Clan protectively.
