This is TFC’s twenty-sixth wave of auditions. We are accepting auditions with characters that are warriors in ShadowClan and SkyClan. When creating your character, we suggest perusing the roster found in the Systems Spreadsheet to gather more information about your character’s prospective Clanmates.
If the Clan you want to join isn’t open this wave, please note that the other Clans are opened inside the roleplay for new characters for members. If you’re unhappy with the Clans open in this wave, but want to give the roleplay a try, we encourage you to still audition.
Auditions will be open for two weeks, and will close on June 20th at 11:59pm EST. After submitting your audition, you will receive a Discord friend request from a mod so we can contact you if necessary. Acceptance messages will be sent to new members via Discord in the days following the deadline.
If you explicitly stated in your audition that we should prioritize a different method of contact, you will be messaged on that platform instead.
Audition Form
When submitting your audition, you’ll have to sign into an email; please use an email that you’re comfortable sharing and using for your character docs if accepted.
To track progress on auditions and learn more about the roleplay, please consider following the blog! We’ll be posting updates and other content throughout the audition window. If you have further questions, feel free to send them in our Asks.
In case you’re wondering what TFC has been up to since the last auditions wave, here’s a recap of the previous plot and what has followed:
Since Hawkstar's conquest of the StarClan dreamscape, the River Territory has been in decay. Prey is running low, sickness is spreading, and leaders are dying—including Rueblossom, the acting leader of RiverClan after Swanstar's retirement.
Seeking to aid RiverClan and restore it to normalcy, young warrior Violetsnow traveled to the Whispering Tree and spoke with Hawkstar about a possible alliance. She agreed to join forces with him, and was crowned Violetmoon and given nine lives. She returned to the living world as RiverClan's new leader, and after bringing otherworldly power into the River Territory after seasons of decay, caused a power vortex to appear overhead the Whispering Tree. All the Clans were drawn to it and learned of her decision; a battle immediately broke out, during which Cloudedstar of ThunderClan was killed.
Tigerblaze, ThunderClan's new leader, was visited by one of the evil spirits, Batfang, in his dreams. Unwilling to work with his evil brother, but also distrustful of StarClan, Tigerblaze vowed to his Clan to ignore the ongoing war... but ThunderClan would soon fall sick.
WindClan, desperate to see StarClan's return, began to consider leaving the River Territory. In the meantime, they opened their territory as a safe haven for cats from all Clans to come for refuge from the war. Eventually, Jaystar approached his medicine cat, Viperlily, and sent her and four warriors on a journey to the mountains, where he hoped they'd find an alternate point of contact with StarClan.
RiverClan was initially distrustful of Violetmoon, but when their territory recovered as promised and prey began to thrive, they welcomed her as their leader. Violetmoon, carrying out Hawkstar's orders, began to offer prey and other resources to the other Clans, hoping they'd join Hawkstar, too.
Meanwhile, Wildspark of ShadowClan had still not claimed leadership after Dawnstar's death, hoping to restore her spirit to her body. He was inspired by Violetmoon's decision to try a new method of contacting StarClan and eventually went to the Whispering Tree to speak with Hawkstar. He joined the tom on the pretense of having a lives ceremony with the StarClan spirits of his family—which he was granted.
Now, Violetmoon and Wildspark are working together to bring the other Clans to Hawkstar. They're starting with a return to normalcy: a Gathering under the full moon.

one of my all time favorite things about tfc is just how many characters come to life in this rp! i created this meme inspired by the warriors favorite relationships meme to highlight just a few of my favorite ocs!
had to give my unborn girl leafkit some love! she will eventually be born into @thefivecrowns as the child of nettlelark & ducksplash of riverclan! if you get accepted into the roleplay (when auditions open) you get the opportunity to be one of leafkit's equally cute siblings!
Evening rays of dying sunlight drape over the River Territory, casting the great Whispering Tree in a deep orange glow; as most cats return to their camps and settle down for slumber in their nests, Bramblestar of SkyClan walks the hidden path to the Starlight Hollow, where she intends to sleep among her ancestors.
Bramblestar has been chosen as StarClan’s prophet, receiving their visions of peril to relay to the Clans in the hopes of preventing the predicted harm. She knows that her new role comes with great responsibilities—and she gladly accepts every one, determined to carry out StarClan’s every order.
While Bramblestar’s visions have been helpful so far, tension brews in the other Clans. Cloudedstar is skeptical about StarClan’s decision to choose Bramblestar of all cats to be their voice, Swanstar and Rueblossom are bitter about StarClan’s refusal to acknowledge all the good RiverClan did for the Clans back during DuskClan’s reign of terror, and ShadowClan and WindClan seem ripe to come into physical conflict with one another. But Bramblestar’s visions are focused on something else: a horrifying sickness destined to kill off at least two of the River Territory Clans.
Everyone is working to prevent the sickness through whatever means necessary, including sending a patrol to the mountains to harvest more herbs—but to what ends must they go? How far can they trust Bramblestar’s interpretations of her dreams? Does StarClan care for anyone but SkyClan?
As night falls, many cats prepare themselves for sleep, hoping to awaken in a vision of their own, seeking answers to their myriad of silenced questions.

i made this art last year during artfight and i still have so much love for it! during fieldstar's life, she's seen a lot of changes in herself. as she looks in the water, she can nearly recall what it was like to take on the world for the first time as fieldpaw.
