Line #54 Roleplay/VirtualWarriorWorld


1	Virtual Warrior World is a popular ''Literature/WarriorCats'' [[PlayByPost Play-By-Post]] roleplaying site hosted on the Proboards forums. It can be reached [[http://virtualwarriorworld.proboards.com here]].
2	!!Clans:
3
4	* '''[=IceClan:=]''' A Clan that resides in the mountains, and has the main qualities of being enduring and strong, with the primary ability to climb. It takes the role of the [[Literature/WarriorCats ThunderClan]].
5	** [[TheLeader Leader:]] Wildstar (also Jaimie, the creator of the site)
6	** [[NumberTwo Deputy:]] Thunderstripe
7	** [[TheMedic Medicine Cats:]] Brightflame, Waterheart
8	** [[TeamMom Queens:]] Rosedapple, Ivycloud, Shadefrost
9
10	* '''[=FireClan:=]''' These Clanners live on the flat plains, being the swiftest and smallest of the cats, and the best runners. They're essentially the [[Literature/WarriorCats ShadowClan]] to VWW.
11	** [[TheLeader Leader:]] [[ImAHumanitarian Darkstar]]
12	** [[NumberTwo Deputy:]] Squirrelpelt
13	** [[TheMedic Medicine Cats:]] Clovepetal, Forestbreak
14	** [[TeamMom Queens:]] Sparrowfur, Clawfur, Snowflare
15
16	* '''[=TreeClan:=]''' This Clan is located in the forest, and is known for being fiercely independent and intelligent. They are strongest in the area of jumping, such as from tree to tree, and are the [[Literature/WarriorCats RiverClan]] of VWW.
17	** [[TheLeader Leader:]] Beechstar
18	** [[NumberTwo Deputy:]] [[DeadpanSnarker Koisplash]]
19	** [[TheMedic Medicine Cats:]] Waspwing, Fernpelt
20	** [[TeamMom Queens:]] Littlepool, Quickfox, Leopardfire
21
22	* '''[=RockClan=]:''' They can be found on a large, overhanging cliff, and are fearless and cunning. [=RockClan=]ners are the strongest physically out of all four Clans, and play the [[Literature/WarriorCats WindClan]] on VWW.
23	** [[TheLeader Leader:]] Hawkstar
24	** [[NumberTwo Deputy:]] Sagefang
25	** [[TheMedic Medicine Cats:]] Sunblaze, Snakefang
26	** [[TeamMom Queens:]] Sweetfur, Silversplash, Sandleaf
27
28	There's also [[FiveManBand DeathClan]], the VWW equivalent to [[Literature/WarriorCats [=BloodClan=]]], though with more emphasis on organization and intelligence, and more compassion compared to [=BloodClan=]. Not to mention wolf and fox boards, the former being considerably more popular.

30	!!Virtual Warrior World provides examples of:
31	* ActionGirl: Most female Clan cats, if not all. [[CombatMedic Medicine cats]] and [[ActionMom queens]] occasionally get in on it as well.
32	* AddedAlliterativeAppeal: Every [=RockClan=] staffer, other than the leader, has a name that begins with "S".
33	%%* AllLoveIsUnrequited: A staple of [[LoveTriangle mate drama]].
34	* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Some warriors regard the kits as this, considering that they frequently share the same mother.
35	%%* ArchEnemy: When Spiritstep was leader, she and Darkstar were this to each other.
36	* ArtisticLicenseBiology: If every character went by every single rule of natural genetics in cats/wolves/foxes down to the letter, the site would be a barren place. Common examples of it are male torties and non-albino cats with red eyes.
37	%%* AntiVillain: [=DeathClan=] could be considered this for the Clans in general.
38	%%* BigBad: Acidfang for VWW in general.
39	* BigScrewedUpFamily: Due to plenty of mix-ups in the early days of the site, pretty much ''everyone'' in [=IceClan=] is related to each other, rendering 99% of mate pairs as automatically incestuous. The same could be said for many in the Clans as a whole.
40	* BrotherSisterIncest: Since there are only three queens in each Clan to be mothers, siblings end up being mates. This is (hopefully) unintentional. It's often {{Hand Wave}}d off as NotBloodSiblings: to avoid incest, one of the mated pair is usually said to be adopted. (Though, this just leads to more questions as to who their biological mother is then.)
41	%%* CardCarryingVillain: Popular in the wolf and [=DeathClan=] boards.
42	* ChocolateBaby: Since kits are divided among the three queens as their offspring in their Clan unless they get permission for otherwise, it often results in kits looking nothing like their mothers.
43	* ClingyJealousGirl: A ''lot'' of mates act really possessive towards each other, providing mate drama.
44	* CrazyJealousGuy: A ''lot'' of mates act really possessive towards each other, providing mate drama.
45	* DamselInDistress: Tying in with DistressedDude, several female and male kits were abducted and taken to [=DeathClan=], requiring a rescue mission, in one plot. In another plot, Darkstar kidnapped a kit from each of the three other Clans besides her own, and it took a while to bail out all of them.
46	%%* DeadpanSnarker: Most of the staffers.
47	* DisappearedDad: Since Clan kits are all mothered by the queens and queens aren't allowed to take permanent mates, it's rare for a character to actually have an established father. When a character does mention their missing father, the father is usually just dead.
48	* DistressedDude: Emberstorm, being temporarily captured by [=IceClan=] before getting rescued.
49	* {{Expy}}: It's common for people to make and roleplay cat versions of characters in other works. Examples are the loner cat group of the main ''Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub'' characters, and the three cat clones of Erik from Literature/ThePhantomOfTheOpera, all completely separate.
50	* FauxActionGirl: Some she-cats turn out like this if they're appointed warriors and apprentices with battle training, but either never see a real fight due to their creators going inactive or fail in fights because of plot-related reasons.
51	%%* ImAHumanitarian: It's a [[RunningGag running gag]] for Darkstar and Nightshade to be this.
52	* InspirationallyDisadvantaged: 99% of blind/mute/deaf characters are characterized as this, being IncorruptiblePurePureness who are determined to overcome their disadvantages.
53	* LoveDodecahedron: Otherwise known as mate drama, and so common on the site to the point that it's the bane of many of the roleplayers' existence, prime material for snarking at, [[BerserkButton ranting about]], and [[PassThePopcorn being entertained by]], and carried out by tons of people with their characters anyway.
54	* PurpleProse: It's popular for people to write this way in their posts to look more "advanced."
55	* RedEyesTakeWarning: Very common for "evil" characters to have these, even when they're not exactly possible or very rare in real life.
56	* {{Retcon}}: Happens a lot to forgotten/failed plots, which are retconned out of existence. Also happens to backstories, but with the other way around in that they're retconned into characters' histories as if they were always there.
57	%%* TheRival: Darkstar was this to Spiritstep when the latter was [=TreeClan=] leader.
58	* SeriousBusiness: Some people take the [[LoveTriangle mate]] [[LoveDodecahedron drama]] that often occurs among their characters a ''bit'' too seriously.
59	* SlidingScaleOfGenderInequality: Roleplay-wise, it's as even as the scale in the actual Warriors books, with she-cats getting the same opportunities as toms to be an apprentice and warrior, and half of the leaders are female. Members-wise, there are a lot more girls than guys on the site, so there's quite the female oversupply in the Clans.
60	* SurroundedByIdiots: Darkstar sees everyone in her entire Clan as incompetent idiots, to the point that she once burned the camp down to teach them a lesson.
61	* ThroughAFaceFullOfFur: For some reason, roleplayers often have their cat/wolf/fox characters "blush" or "turn red/pink".
62	%%* TogetherInDeath: Bloodflame and Peachwing.
63	%%* TrueCompanions: Many [=VWWers=] as a whole consider themselves this.
64	* WhatTheHellHero: Almost everyone in the Clans does this to [=CloudClan=] after they respond to increasing their declining population by sending a spirit down to a Gathering to choose [[Literature/TheHungerGames tributes]] from each of the Clans to fight each other to the death. Some of the tributes include ''apprentices''.
