Synopsis under the cut.

Canary and her Coal Mine (abb. CHCM) is my take on a Feed The Woods Mod playthrough of clan gen. This playthrough is also limited like so:

1) Only the Leader's kin can hold the position of Foreman, Head Doctor, and Head Therapist. Any other cats may have kittens, though they will not hold power over the Leader's kin (for better or worse).

1a) the Leader may not choose a Foreman that is not of their blood. If the Leader dies with no kits, the clan, as a collective, will have to struggle without, until a suitable cat is chosen.

1b) bonus, when the leader dies the blog ends. Epilog will be posted at demand :]

1c) if the Leader has passed and a vote is made, a new Leader can be appointed. (Will be hosted here!)

2) The oldest born in a litter by the Leader will be Foreman, the 2nd Doctor, 3rd Therapist, ect. If one dies before the position is filled, then a kit from her litter will be chosen at random.

2a) if all kits in the first litter die, then subsequent litters will fill those roles, eldest to youngest Foreman to Therapist. Repeat.

3) No resetting over a death. What's done is done.

4) Once the clan has reached 3+ pages of cats, mass extinction is turned on.

5) Leader must mentor the Foreman.

WORLD LORE

After the 4th Wall between two worlds was shattered, horrible monsters began to pour into reality. These monsters absorb the very souls of anything they touch into their being, preventing cats from reaching Starclan.

Several clans fall until three flee into the cold mountains, where these monsters struggle to follow. Named after the archaic twoleg-cat writings found, the Coal Mine Clan take the largest of the mines. Another clan, Sulfur Mine Clan, settle in one on the other side, facing the rift between worlds. The third is Gold Mine Clan. Uh. They're *there*.

CLAN CODE HERE

[canary-andher-coalmine]

Coal Mine Clan Codes

Code One: Protect your Clan, even with your life. Your loyalty lays with the clan first, but all cats under the code are your allies. Each Clan must ensure its success first over others. Each Clan is to be respected and allowed traditions of their own.

Code Two: an honorable worker need not kill other cats to win battles, unless the cat is outside the code, or it is in self-defense.

Code Three: The leader and their kin will be fed first, then elders, the expectant and their kits, the sick or wounded, then workers and apprentices may have their fill.

Code Four: Leader > Foreman = Head Doctor = Head Therapist. Leader's Kin > Non leader/not direct descendants. Non leader kin = not direct descendants.

Code 5: The Clans must gather at each full moon's apex for exchange of news, border disputes, and declarations of war.

Code six: regardless of clan or status, no cat can neglect a kit, the expectant, or elder in danger.

Code seven: foreman will become the leader after the death, retirement, or exile of the previous leader. Any worker may start an inquiry as to the fitness of the Leader, but such concerns can not be brought by the Foreman. 2/3rds of the clan must agree to the leader's removal, where the foreman must take all the lives of the leader, in camp, and paint their pelt in the Leader's blood. Only then will starclan accept a new leader of the clan.

Code eight: a child will be made an apprentice worker at 6 moons, no sooner. A newly named worker will keep silent vigil for one week after their naming.

Code nine: a worker may change Clans, but their new clan must challenge their loyalty however the leader sees fit. If they fail they will be exiled from both clans for one moon.

Code ten: Prey is killed only for food. Thank Starclan for every life it takes to sustain yours.
