The River The River cuts through the heart of RiverClan territory before curving to form the clan's border with ThunderClan. In some places it is wide and flows powerfully, in others it is narrow and not difficult to ford. The RiverClan cats are expert swimmers, and the river is also their source for fish, their primary prey. The river can be deep in places, occasionally even with drop offs, so cats unfamiliar with it or who are not good at swimming can drown. The banks of the river are muddy, and reeds line much of them except where the river cuts through the forest. The river's bottom is pebbly, and some pebbles are sharp, posing a danger to cats who choose to wade there. Moderator: Shortstar |

Forest Area Near the border with ThunderClan, the river curves and begins to flow through a territory spotted with trees. The trees of it are not thick enough to really be called woodland or forest, but they do provide a cover, a shade, in the hot summer weather. Mossy rocks, bark, grass, and fallen leaves line the floor of this area, and it is soft and comfortable. Next to the river, the air is cool. There is much land prey to be found here, though RiverClan does not often use it. Mice hide in the shelter of rocks, thrushes trill from the branches of trees - maple, oak, and beech, among others. The RiverClan Wood, as it is often called, is a comfortable place, peaceful and beautiful. At night, the gleaming stars can be seen in the gaps between leaves. Moderator: Shortstar |

Marshes Covering much of RiverClans territory is marshy ground, filled with reeds and mud. There are sometimes soft spots in the mud which may sink and cave in. RiverClan apprentices are traditionally taught of these spots so that they know how to avoid them. The reeds of this marsh are tall enough to obscure a cat completely, and they allow for excellent ambushes - both for and against RiverClan. However, the cats of RiverClan are very accustomed to such terrain and have become experts in reading the slightest twitch of a reed, the faintest rustling. The cats of the clan also may catch frogs and small marsh sparrows and wrens in these marshy areas. Occasionally they will find straying rodents as well. Moderator: Shortstar |
