[align=center]LIGHTNINGCLAN
[color=black][size=10pt][font=arial]LightningClan, or StormClan as it was originally named, is a ruby fanclan with over 50,000 posts that was started back in 2011 by Faux. For almost a full year it was the most active pseudoclan on the site, accumulating around forty thousand posts on one thread, but then died out. Since then it has gone through multiple reboots, with on-and-off activity, but is once more attempting to get back on its feet.
HISTORY The history of LightningClan is actually quite rich, and can be traced back to a clan called FlameClan. In this clan, there were two cats by the names of Darkfire and Flameflare; the two were great friends and did nearly everything together. However, one day the leader, Briarstar, decided that due to the lack of kits each cat should be assigned a mate. Darkfire and Flameflare both thought this was outrageous and should not be allowed, and so gathered all the opposing cats in the Clan and decided something should be done. So, together, they ran off with a few others and created a Clan of their own, one that was fair and allowed cats to be with whoever they please. And so, LightningClan was born. Darkfire became Darkstar and led the clan with Flameflare as his deputy for many moons in peace with the other clans, as the golden age in the history of LightningClan.
But like all good things this did not last forever and LightningClan fell inactive. Many rose to power and tried to start it up once more, however it failed each time. An old leader, Roman, has taken the lead once more in the beginning of a new age. One with renewed strength and the ability to endure as we always have, re-writing LightningClan's history to become the great clan it once was as we speak.
TERRITORY LightningClan as switched territories multiple times, but they have currently settled high in the mountains, similar to those of the huangshan peaks in China. This range of mountains is incredibly beautiful and equally mysterious, almost always covered in a layer of mist. It storms often here, with rain often and thunderstorms also common, as their name sort of suggests. There is plenty of trees and growth up on the mountains, home to lots of prey.
Deep inside the mountains, LightningClan makes its home inside a tunnel system, connecting large caves through bridges and pathways like these. Most of the clan lives together, making their nests in one of the bigger caves, however members are free to wander about and claim places to sleep as they please. Their home is a treacherous one, yes, forcing the LightningClans to be agile and stick to the paths. Survival of the fittest, yes?
