StreamClan
StreamClan's territory is covered in wide-spread trees. Unlike FogClan, the trees here are thin, leaving plenty of open space. The lack of undergrowth aids to the open space, but does not help the prey situation. Most of the trees are too weak for a cat to perch on, but there are plenty of birds. StreamClan has become quite skilled in hunting birds because bird make up most of the land-prey population. Water voles are also common due to the river. Mice are scarce, but can be found on the border with FogClan.
They also have the river. The river touches each clan's territory at least once, giving them all adequate water supply. But it mostly runs through StreamClan territory. The cats are very skilled in fishing, often bringing back plenty of fish to make up for the lack of other prey. As well as fishing, StreamClan cats can swim decently too.
Despite the river that runs through the territory, there is very little to no marsh located in StreamClan's territory. A few patches of soggy land line the northern bank, close to PineClan, but most of the banks are raised from the river, keeping them dry. Reeds and watermint bushes grow along the river side, provided a key place for some land prey and herbs.
The camp is located as far from the river as they could get it. This was to prevent the flooding waters from driving them out of their home. The only down fall was that it pushed the a bit too close to their border with PineClan, so the cats are constantly keeping a close watch on that border. The camp is surrounded by thorny vines and bramble bushed, providing good walls. The leader's den is settled under a large rock with a small hollow beneath it. The Medicine cat den is a thicket of bushes that formed a nice center for sick cats to rest in. The supplies are stored in neat piles and are protected by bramble branches. The medicine cat and apprentice rest in an abandoned hollow under the bushes.
The warriors an apprentices have similar dens, but on different sides of the camp. Both are made of bushed with moss-lined nest for sleeping in. The nursery is similar to these dens, but is almost underground because the cats managed to dig a decent hollow. The elders rest in a fallen tree behind the warriors den.
The Cats
In general StreamClan cats tend to be on the smaller side. The have muscle from all the swimming they do, but are not the largest cats. Most of their fur is short and well kept, gleaming from all the fish they eat. Not the greatest fighters in the forest, but they're not bad at it. They mostly practice in hunting or tracking or even stealth. Most of the time you can find a StreamClan cat hanging around the river or patrolling their PineClan border-- they don't have much else to do.
Personality wise, StreamClan are very nice cats. While they do have a strong belief in StarClan, they are in no way against PineClan for their own beliefs. They simply want to protect their clan-- not show hostility towards other clans. Occasionally you'll have one StreamClan cat forget the new clans (the clan seems to be full of 'go with the flow' type cats) and accidentally cross the border to chase after prey. They are quick to apologize, but if it gets out of hand, they will not be the clan to simply back down. They do have their pride, of course.
