 Stillwater Clan
Basic Clan Rules: There can only be 1 leader at a time, 1 deputy at a time, 2 Medicine Dragons at a time, 1 Medicine Dragon Apprentice at a time, only as many warrior apprentices as there are warriors (there can't be more warrior apprentices than warriors), there can be unlimited amount of warriors and elders, queens can be female dragons only, who have hatchlings or are caring for eggs/tubes. Queens resume their warrior duties once they have no hatchlings or are expecting none. The leader and deputy, if female, cannot have hatchlings. (they can splice, just not breed) There can be an unlimited number of hatchlings, but not all can become apprentices at the same time.
Basic Hunting Rules: Elders, hatchlings and queens cannot hunt. Instead, the warriors and warrior apprentices hunt for them. MD's and MDA's typically don't hunt, as they are usually stocking up herbs or caring for sick or injured dragons. All other dragons can hunt on the center island, or fish in the marsh. Apprentices cannot leave the marsh to hunt until they are warriors. Warriors, the Leader, and the Deputy are the only ones that can leave to go hunt outside the marshland.
Basic Rules For Mentoring: Warriors, the Leader, and the Deputy can mentor apprentices. Mentoring means teaching them how to fight, how to hunt, and basic clan traditions. If a female warrior is a mentor, and then is expecting hatchlings, then the apprentice will be assigned a new mentor. This will also apply if a warrior is too injured for a long time to mentor an apprentice properly. Warriors must have had the warrior status for at least 2 weeks (rp time will go faster) Hatchlings must be at least 1 month old (rp time will go faster) before they can become apprentices.
Clan Traditions: Stillwater Clan isn't the same as all the others of the dragon world, its different. First of all, there's the leader. The leaders second in command is the deputy, who becomes the leader once the origional leader dies. There are the warriors, who do all the basic fighting and hunting for the clan. Warriors train the apprentices. Apprentices do all the chores, and also if they're being punished, such as cleaning out the elders hut and bringing all dragons fresh moss and food. Apprentices are trained as long as their mentor thinks they need to be. Then they recieve their warrior name and become a true warrior of the clan. The elders are warriors who are too old to perform their duties to the best of their abilities. The queens are she-dragons who are caring for their hatchlings or are caring for their eggs. They are provided for by the apprentices. Hatchlings don't become apprentices until they reach the age of 1 month. Last are the Medicine Dragons. These dragons have a very important role of caring for sick or injured dragons, and interpreting signs.
Clan Ceremonies: All ceremonies are performed by the leader, who speaks the correct words and chooses the true names of the kits, apprentices, warriors, elders, and medicine dragons.
New Hatchling Ceremony - "This day we have been blessed with (insert number of hatchlings) hatchlings. (one by one hatchlings are carried up.)Until you have reached your 1st month and recieve your apprentice name, you will go by the name of (insert sutible name)kit."

A dragon who will uphold clan traditions, care for all the dragons in the clan, and be ready to become leader at any time, I appoint (insert warriors name) as the new deputy of Stillwater Clan."

(Call up deputy to the rock) You served as deputy for (insert old leaders name/me) And now it is your turn to take your place as leader. Do you accept? (deputy says yes) Very well then, I give you you're leaders name, from now on you will be known as (take first part of warrior name, leaving out the last part, example: Voletooth. Take out tooth and keep vole, adding star. So it would be Volestar) Serve your clan well as leader, and uphold all of our traditions and ways of life."
Leader Retirement Ceremony (performed by elder) - "This day we are here to honor (insert leaders name), as (he/she) wishes to come and join the elders hut. (insert leaders name), are you sure this is you're choice? (leader replies yes) Then by my power as elder, I take away your leaders name, and you will revert to you're warriors name. From now until you leave us, you shall be known as (insert leaders warrior name). May you have many, many years of rest and peace."
Death Ceremony - "This day we are here to mourn (insert name of who died), you gave the clan great service for the time that you were here. And we hope that where ever you are now, you are happy. Farewell."
