MEDICINE CAT AUDITIONS [CLOSED]

[admin tetris]

MEDICINE CAT
[AUDITIONS OPEN]
[CLOSING JUNE 30TH]

HIGH RANK RESPONSIBILITIES
1) will be involved in choosing a medicine cat apprentice when the position is open.

So this is the only high rank position that we want filled ASAP – so while we plan to leave these auditions open for a little while to give people opportunities to apply, there are two things that make these auditions different than the deputy and leader auditions: 1) you will need to fill out the character app as if your character has already been the medicine cat (or apprentice) for a while, and 2) you won’t be able to play these characters before a medicine cat is chosen – and unless you change them to be a non-medicine cat if they aren’t selected, you won’t be able to play them afterward. (Unless you want to make them a medicine cat apprentice, but I will talk more about that in another post.)

I would highly suggest that you read the end portion of Badgerstar’s history (you certainly don’t have to read it all) because I have a feeling that any current medicine cat would be highly involved with their elderly leader – and not too happy with his complete refusal to name a new deputy over the last few moons.

To audition, you will need to make a temporary account for them and fill out an app. We will make a special board for audition-only apps, and you can simply mention in the thread title or at the very top of the app that it is audition-only.

Once your app has been posted and accepted, you will need to come here and fill out an additional (much smaller and more specific) form:

Cbox name: (what we call you)
Complete list of characters: (list ‘em)
Activity level: (a post a week/a post a day/checking the site most days and posting when needed/however you want to describe it – we will be taking your current activity level into account anyway)
Your willingness to work with staff for plots: (you will be integral to major plots, or incredibly affected by them, so you will need to keep an eye on your PMs)

If this character is not chosen for medicine cat, do you want to be put in the running for medicine cat apprentice? (yes/no)

Character name: (self-explanatory)
Character app: (link to your posted, accepted app)
Traits that make this character a good choice for medicine cat: (list and explain them)
Negative traits of this character: (because we all need balance, and want to know what we’re getting into – list and explain them)
Roleplay sample: (choose one of the following prompts and write out your average post – note: length will not earn you brownie points; we’re looking for quality, not quantity)

1) A young kit in the nursery shows great interest and promise in becoming a medicine cat – but there are other clan members (and littermates) who continually tell this kit that they shouldn’t waste their time and should go the normal route of a warrior instead. You agree that the kit would be skilled as your apprentice – how do you convince this kit (and notify your leader) that it might be worthwhile to follow in your pawsteps, and how do you deal with the disrespect to your rank?

2) After a recent, severe bout of greencough and whitecough, your stores of catnip and other herbs are running dangerously low. However, the Twolegs who grow a large amount of catnip in their garden have recently bought a rambunctious, possibly dangerous dog. How do you go about refilling your supplies?

[batears]

Cbox name: Sousa
Complete list of characters: Marbleback, Batears, Fallentree
Activity level: At least one tab is always open and I am constantly refreshing the new threads and cBox
Your willingness to work with staff for plots: 100%

If this character is not chosen for medicine cat, do you want to be put in the running for medicine cat apprentice? Absolutely

Character name: Batears
Character app:
Traits that make this character a good choice for medicine cat: he is very affectionate toward his Clanmates and he is ready to do everything he can to help everyone. He has plans to help revolutionize the way Medicine Cats work now and forevermore. He is highly obsessive and luckily, one of his obsessions is taking care of others!
Negative traits of this character: his obsessiveness is also a negative trait because he can often get so focused on something that he forgets about everything else. He also isn't fantastic with taking direction from others - he thinks he always knows a better way to do something.
Roleplay sample:

After a recent, severe bout of greencough and whitecough, your stores of catnip and other herbs are running dangerously low. However, the Twolegs who grow a large amount of catnip in their garden have recently bought a rambunctious, possibly dangerous dog. How do you go about refilling your supplies?

It was over. The last Apprentice had finally left his den. The -cough epidemic looked finished.

The exhausted Medicine Cat dragged himself into his storage cave and began to count out what was left. The disease took only one life this turn around -an elder who was ready to go to StarClan anyway. The fact that his supply of catnip was low was a small price to pay for the health of his Clan. Unfortunately, the only known supply of Catnip was in Twoleg place. He sighed and nocked his head against the rock. It was dangerous but it was necessary. He would set out in the morning to gather a new supply.


He laid in his den, staring up at the sky. This was one of the rare times he would be easily falling asleep, but that did t stop his busy mind from running. When he got back with the Catnip, he was going to replant some of it. Hopefully, within a generation it would be grown enough to keep future Medics out of Twoleg place. And soon, hopefully, he will be able to find one of the healing stones that can help with the coughs...


The following morning came and he hopped out of bed. One night of good sleep was more then enough to perk the Tom back up. He was ready for this. This was such an easy trip! He'd I formed his leader of his plans and that it would be an all day trip but he promised to be back before nightfall. Badgerstar said he would send a patrol that direction around sunhigh to check up on him. With that, Batears headed out.

The trip itself was no issue and he made it to the boarders with ease. Now was when things would get slower. He had to be very careful not to be found by twolegs...or worse! He crept through the Twoleg village with care but with an odd familiarity. He had a deep interest in the way twolegs existed and he was oddly comfortable here. Not to mention that he made this journey multiple times.

It took about an hour before he found the camp that held theCatnip in question. It was on the edge of the Twoleg territory so it was easy to find then if it was deeper inside. Batears lept to wall that was meant to keep things out and spotted the garden that held his prize. With a flick of his ears and a coy smile, he hopped into the yard and trotted over to the greens.

A barking filled the air so loudly that the Medicine Cat froze with terror. Before he knew anything, a massive slobbering face was in his. A panic filled him and this time, it told him to turn and flee. Weather it was luck or the dogs stupidity that saved him, Batears may never know but he turned and booked it, making it -barely- to the top of the wall. What was he going to do!? He needed to get more Catnip. He couldn't hear anything over the dogs yapping but... He could smell something familiar. He turned to see the boarder patrol Badgerstar sent to check on him! Maybe they could help... "Snakestrike! Would you mind lending me a paw?. He gave a sheepish grin as he shouted over the dog.

Please not that this was filled out on my iPad. I apologize for any typos, it is very difficult to fix things. I realize this does not look good in an audition, but after the 1st I will be on a computer again. Thank you for understanding.
