Basic Description

RiverClan cats are long-limbed and wiry cats who most often have neutral and muddy coat colors. They’re known to value tenacity, individuality, and assertiveness — but are also seen as stubborn, aggressive, and bloodthirsty.

Following the split from ShadowClan, RiverClan invited European wildcats to live among them, and eventually began an expansionist campaign that ended when they overtook WindClan completely. RiverClan is the only Clan with matrilineal succession. RiverClan leaders only hold a single life, as ThunderClan refuses to allow them access to the Crypt of Stars. Their territory includes the Circle of Claws, the traditional Gathering place.

Territory

  • RiverClan Camp - RiverClan's camp is an old, decaying church standing in the heart of the bog.
  • River - a shallow, sluggish river that cuts through RiverClan's territory
  • Heather Fields - high and (relatively) dry heather fields on the western side of RiverClan territory
  • Flooded Footpaths - a series of twoleg trails cutting across the bog. Flooded for most of the year.
  • Bog Graveyard - a mire hosting the skeletal remains of unfortunate animals
  • Peat Hags - RiverClan's traditional burial ground
  • Old Cottage - a twoleg cottage in the south of RiverClan's territory

Outskirts

  • Circle Of Claws - a circle of standing stones; the former location for inter-clan Gatherings
  • Vanishing Lake - a lake to the southwest with an unpredictable and highly variable water level
  • Ancient Trail - a well-trodden path between RiverClan and ShadowClan territories
