[Undertaker]

High Rank Announcement [#hrannouncement]

Looming in the shadows underneath the massive rock that served as their meeting place, Dawnstar sat just inside her den, slowly blinking while observing the day-to-day life of her clanmates. The sun was high in the sky, only small beams could reach the murky heart of the ShadowClan territory. It was a warm day but not too hot, Dawnstar found it to be the perfect day for some carnage.

After licking her shallow wounds from the recent and disastrous attempt on her life, Dawnstar gathered her huge paws underneath her and lifted her tremendous weight, stretching as she rose, before finally stepping out of the darkness her den provided. "Warriors of ShadowClan, come with me!" Dawnstar yowled in a demanded if not slightly threatening tone. She didn't wait to see who obeyed her, everyone had better, instead, she made her way out the rocky path and out the entrance, leading the way to the Training Cliffs.

Jumping up onto a nearby boulder that elevated her, Dawnstar immediately got down to business. "I promised a punishment game and I dislike breaking my promises. For those of you who thought you could get away lazing around in ShadowClan instead of shedding your blood defending the clan, it's time to pay. Those of you who did not come and aid us with Dog threat will not have to spill each other's blood until I'm satisfied you given enough. I'm pairing you in groups, you will spar, claws unsheathed, and fangs bare. I don't want serious injuries that will result in moons of recuperation in Badgerscar's den. It'll be a waste. If you end up killing your opponent, you forfeit your life to me. If you hold back or don't take this seriously... I'm not sure what I'll do truthfully." Dawnstar tipped her head thoughtfully. "It won't be pretty, though. If you have any problems with any of this, leave ShadowClan and never return, we don't need cowards."

Dawnstar finished, turning her head to lick at her flank. Dawnstar was not at all concerned about how fighting each other might 'weaken' the clan as a whole. This would teach the cats to have some pain tolerance as well as remind them to put aside their petty feelings and come defend ShadowClan, as they swore to do, in the future. Ebonyfang was technically the only cat who could get out of this since he had other duties at the time, but Ebonyfang needed the extra training. Being a medicine cat has made him go softer than a kittypet. Dawnstar was constantly covered in fresh wounds from her brawls with whomever, she carried out her duties without a hiss of pain and continued to fight whoever dares challenge or trespass on her territory. The warriors could learn how to toughen up.

"Warriors who do not hear their name called, you are to come to gather here, I have a different task to assign you." The leader finished speaking, leaping down, and announced the groups for their sparring matches.

Below you'll find all the groups and opponents. I used a randomizer to match everyone. Please make sure to put your group number at the top of your posts when you start fighting. This will help me big time keep track of the progress and clear up confusion especially if you have multiple cats.

I'll be ending this on the 28th -29th. Dawnstar will be coming up with a second separate punishment for those who do not participate in this punishment. If your cats' partner does not show up within 24 hours after your post, mention me, Dawnstar will either find a new partner or allow them to take on the second punishment instead.

This is open for the rest of ShadowClan to view and spectate, but interference will result in exile or immediate death.
