Just some quick info. People do not actually die in this AU. The fact is that when someone gets very sick, old, or wounded the character is sent to 'StarClan' which is basically just heaven but since this is humans I can't exactly have people dying all over the place like the actual Erins do. It's just sort of a hotel with all the luxury humans want.
Next, the Dark Forest is a separate campus and 'failed students' or students who've broken a lot of rules (E.G Tigerstar, Hawkfrost etc) are sent to the Dark Forest.
The school is split into 4 parts, the different Clans. Clan leaders are principals, and deputies are vice principals. Students can study at Warrior Cats High for as long as they want, because the students become teachers basically. Private tutors are assigned to 'Apprentices' and once the apprentices become young warriors they only have to attend basic classes that are no longer one on one. Senior warriors do not have to attend these classes but it is optional.
Next, since like I said I can't have people dying all over the place like they are in the books, fighting over territory is now just playing a sport over territory.
Clans are allowed to hold other students hostage in exchange for territory as long as they do not harm them and just like take care of them basically. What they'll do is stick them in someone's dorm or a classroom and just watch them. E.G: Twigpaw being kidnapped.
The Dark Forest is only open at night for obvious reasons.
Because it would be extremely weird for a human to be called 'Bluekit' the school's mascot is, you guessed it, a cat. The names they use are not their real names, just names to show their ranks basically in the school.
Sorry but I'm not naming a human Greykit.
Students grow up in the nursery which is basically a separate building attached to the homeroom (camp) and is technically kindergarten and first grade, second grade, etc.
(I aint throwing 10 year olds into warriors fighting stuff sorry)
There's a separate nursery for each Clan obviously. Students will usually be a part of the Clan that their parents were in. Because many of the people here will be adults, yes, they will have children.
And absolutely no Spottedleaf and Thistleclaw are never ever ever ever getting together nor ever having any kind of relationship. Just no, its not gonna happen.
Becoming an apprentice is based on when you turn 14 or 15. (Parents can choose if they want to hold back their child and wait for them to be a little older because this is humans).
Changing Clans is very very hard.
Medicine cats are the only ones able to speak to the people in StarClan not because they're dead but because medicine cats have special privileges.
SkyClan is a separate school very very very far away.
Rogues are emo gangs and people.
StarClan cannot see the future because humans. They simply have a lot of power over the school, similar to a school board.
Principals or leaders do not actually have nine lives because we're humans. It just means that whenever playing the sport that I haven't made a name for nor designed (please help me all I can think of is American football and I don't even know how to play that) they are able to die nine times and not be sent to StarClan.
(Exceptions include serious injuries while playing such as Tigerstar the 1st.)
Medicine cats have weekly meetings near a pond in the forest where the medicine cat apprentices play skipping stones on the water and the older medicine cats chat and talk.
Gatherings still exist and are still called Gatherings because that's the one normal human-like name I can actually use in Warriors.
(They meet in a great hall at the center of the school.)
Prophecies are just messages from StarClan.
Phones don't exist.
Kittypets are still called Kittypets to make fun of them.
I'm not going to make humans eat mice and voles because I'm not cruel and that's also disgusting.
Medicine cat herbs are still basically the same, except they use actual medicines instead of random leaves people found on the Internet that probably don't actually work in real life.
(The medicine names are still inspired by the herbs because I'm not a doctor and I'm not going to search the internet every time someone has a thorn in their paw).
Feel free to ask Questions about anything I missed and if I think of anything else I'll add it in another Info chapter.
