Happy February 1st, everyone! It’s been quite a while since our last moon update, as the Prey Moon got extended due to the holidays, and it feels good to be back in the swing of things. Even with the slower pace during the last few months, it feels like so many things have happened! As always, here’s an update post to keep everyone up to speed as we head into the Thunder Moon 2021!
As we have now passed from the Prey Moon 2021 and into the Thunder Moon 2021, it is time for an Age Up! You can see more information on that in the official Age Up thread and hopefully we can all get our characters updated ASAP. Since it’s been a while, also make sure to read over the newer mechanics added a couple moons ago!
Also as a general note for anyone with ongoing threads still set in the Prey Moon or before, feel free to keep those going! We don’t prohibit threads taking place in the past, as they can help flesh out characters and histories. However, we do encourage everyone to prioritize threads taking place in the current time, the Thunder Moon!
Our first full moon of Info Drive feedback has come to an end! In the next few days I’ll be organizing the results into a new subforum, but the topics will be left open for feedback until then just in case anyone has any last minute contributions.
Going forward, this moon we have four new items open for feedback! Please feel free to share your thoughts on how these items should be handled in canon, and help us shape the site lore! This moon’s choices are as follows:
If you have an idea for a future Info Drive choice, feel free to let a staff member know and we can see about adding it to the list!
Goodness, lots has happened in the past moon! I’ll do my best to broadly recap it all here.
Those are the biggest events! However, there are many more things that have happened during the Prey Moon and before, but they either haven’t been fully played out yet or were just small happenings between two or three cats. For more details please check out the Timeline, which details all threads on site no matter how many cats are involved! We also now have the Lore Recap document, so please feel free to take a look at that for the most important plot events!
As for weather, the forest will be heating up a bit more! It’ll be hot and humid, with the chance for some warm showers and maybe even a thunderstorm or two. Prey will still be quite easy to come by, a welcome boon for those experiencing other hardships. That said, this moon’s weather will be a bit more unpredictable than the last, so keep an eye out!
Once again I’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all our lovely members for making this such a welcoming and fun community <3 It wouldn’t be the same without you guys! We’ve had a handful of new members in the last moon, and you all seem to have settled in nicely! Welcome once again, we hope you enjoy your stay c:
A little over a week ago we had our first “TCR Lore Recap” stream, which turned out to be a great time! I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did, and if all goes to plan we’ll start having regular community events for everyone to pop in and chat! We’re looking at having a “recap” stream every 6 months or so, both to help inform new members and keep ourselves up to speed!
All in all, I’d say this was a very successful moon, especially considering the time constraints of the holidays. Thank you all for making this game what it is and here’s to another great moon! 😀

Plot News
Goodness, lots has happened in the past moon! I’ll do my best to broadly recap it all here.
- Tensions have been rising in RiverClan, namely between Flare and Shellspots. Their arguments have become something of an open secret, with everyone in the Clan being aware of the disagreements but no one wanting to address it. It likely won’t be much longer before the final straw snaps. We’re expecting the big confrontation between the two, which will result in Flare splitting off with his own group and forming ThunderClan, to happen sometime during the Thunder Moon! How apt, hm?
- More connections are being made outside the Clans! Cats are starting to take notice of the group living along the river, and some are seeking them out or avoiding them completely. Various cats have also been coming together and sharing tales of the other Clans, and it looks like WindClan and ShadowClan might start to form before too long.
- The future medicine cats are on the move! Cyril, Juniper, and Cecil have made contact, while Canarypaw has been sent away with a patrol of RiverClan cats and has traveled with Roots to find the Moonstone. At this point in time, the Moonstone has technically been found, as of roughly Prey Moon 17, 2021, however it has not been written out yet.
Those are the biggest events! However, there are many more things that have happened during the Prey Moon and before, but they either haven’t been fully played out yet or were just small happenings between two or three cats.
