RANKING SYSTEM
Imperator: The leader of Ethereal. They have pretty much the same power as the leader of a regular Clan. The Imperator usually does not train other cats. There is only one Imperator at a time. They are allowed to have a mate and kits.
Sanctus: The deputy of Ethereal. They have almost as much power as the Imperator. The Sanctus can NOT promote/demote members. The Sanctus usually does not train other cats. There is only one Sanctus at a time. They are allowed to have a mate and kits.
Exceed: The elite warriors of Ethereal. They can organize patrols and train any of the lower ranks. There are up to five Exceeds at one time. They are allowed to have a mate and kits.
Annex: The warriors of Ethereal. They can train Titos and Extuses with permission from a higher rank. There is no limit to the number of Annexes. They are allowed to have a mate and kits.
Extus: The junior warriors of Ethereal. They are NOT allowed to train other cats. There is no limit to the number of Extuses. They are not allowed to have a mate or kits.
Tito: The apprentices of Ethereal. They are not "apprentices" like they would be in other Clans. These are the youngest members. They are kits older than 6 moons and new members. They are NOT allowed to train other cats. There is no limit to the number of Extuses. They are not allowed to have a mate or kits.
Rankless: If a kit is born into Ethereal or adopted by an Ethereal queen, they are considered rankless until they are old enough to become a Tito.
There is no healer. Instead, all Exceeds are required to know basic medicinal skills. One of them is permitted to study further.
Ethereal does NOT accept motherless kits who waltz into camp. They need to have a mother in Ethereal or be adopted.
NAMING GUIDE
Names can be anything from kittypet names (like Fluffy) to a loner/rogue name (like Leaf) or a warrior name (like Willowcreek). Your cat can have almost any name out there. Just PLEASE do not make your cat's name super edgy names with words that a cat would never know (like Dragonrider or smth).
Your character's "full name" is their rank + their name.
e.g. Rank: Imperator
Name: Hazel
Full Name: Imperator Hazel
Every cat with a rank MUST put their full name at the beginning of their post. Otherwise, no one knows what rank your character is. Once you mention it once, you don't have to mention it again in that post.
e.g. Imperator Hazel stepped out of her den. She squinted against the harsh sunlight shining in her eyes. The thin brown she-cat padded over to her friend. "It's too bright out!" Hazel complained to the other she-cat.
