How to; Graduate from Kit to Apprentice
- A kit must be active and post at least once or twice per 3-4 days.
- A kit will graduate within or right on their 10th day of activity.
How to; Graduate from Apprentice to Warrior
- An Apprentice will not graduate until they are of 12-16 moons old.
- An apprentice must be active to graduate. This means 1 post per every 5-6 days.
- An apprentice must have attended at least 2 training sessions. The more sessions you attend,
the better your cat will be in the future and the better you look!
- An apprentice MUST have a mentor to graduate.
- An apprentice should graduate within a month. The Exact Time will vary on your activity, Clan leader and your mentor.
- If an apprentice does not graduate after a month, they will have 1 major assessment to see the skills of the lagging apprentice.
If your apprentice does not attend this assesment, they will not become a Warrior...
- If your cat does NOT stay active, they will NOT become a Warrior and will be deemed to have had some kind of
illness or injury that keeps them from becoming a Warrior.
- If your apprentice becomes inactive for more than 2 months, they will be 'forgotten.'
How to; Become a Mentor
This may seem like it doesn't belong here, but every Warrior should see if they fit for mentorship. Therefore, it will be placed here as a specialized ability.
- A Warrior must be VERY active to become a Mentor and must STAY active if they are to stay a mentor.
- A warrior must ask the Leader if they may become a mentor. Depending on their skills and patience, the leader will ask them questions.
- A warrior has the choice to attend 3 sessions with another mentor and his apprentice or watch over the kits
for a queen a few times before deciding if he or she can handle the task of caring and training for a young cat.
- If a Warrior decides they can do this task, they will receive some respect and do have an opportunity to become deputy.
