Question:  What are

Question:  What are all of those '---clan' threads on BaB???  I see them all the time in other places too, and have been quite curious for a while.  :)

 

Laura, I think they're various Warriors (the wild cats series) roleplays.

back to the Chirp at Cricket

Yes, they are. There's this series by Erin Hunter called Warriors about these wild cats living in clans in a forest... Anyway, some people made up their own clans and asked other people to join. They pretend that they're cats...

At least when we pretend to be wizards/witches we don't have to put "meowed" after every line of dialogue, eh? *wink*

But yes. They are Warrior roleplays. All fifty million of them. Well, the Choklitclan one is a spoof roleplay/parody RRR... thing ((BUFFY SPEAK!)). So is the "Twoleg place" one or whatever.

No, Twolegplace isn't, actually. It's only different from the other warriors RPs in that the cats are housecats instead of wild ones. And... there is no need to ever put 'meowed', because the entire RP is dialogue except for what's in asterixes.

Thanks for asking, Laura.  I've been wondering that, too.  Don't you think it's kinda... I dunno... weird??  No offense??

By the way, TNO, I don't think there is any 'pretending to be witches and wizards'. The HP RPs are more like stories based on the books, and aren't even always in first person. The Warriors RPs, however, are straight dialogue almost similar to Secret Identity. That's why, whenever a new RP begins, people ask whether it'll be done like the HP RPs or the Warriors ones.

I'd also rather be a witch than a cat, especially since witches can be Animagi and turn into cats whenever they want! Cats, on the other hnd, stay cats.
