DO NOT POST HERE UNLESS CALLED FOR A PUNISHMENT OR TO HELP DECIDE A PUNISHMENT

This is where punishments deemed too minor to involve the entirety of the clan will be held. These will mainly involve unreported patrols, but this thread may be used for punishments outside of patrols as well. Patrol punishments extend to all members unless stated otherwise for an IC or OOC reason.

> If you have an OOC excuse for not reporting in and present it to whoever issued the patrol, your cat will either be excused from punishment or face less harsh punishing. But you have to let them know as soon as possible beforehand. If you believe a mistake or mix-up has been made, inform them.

Patrol Punishments:

Failed Border Patrol: If a border patrol fails to be reported on time or is reported late, all warriors assigned to that patrol risk being tasked with sweeping their assigned area for trespassers and/or catching at least one piece of prey for the Clan. This will require three posts in total before the punishment can be complete; one here to accept their punishment, one in their assigned areas, and one here to report back to who issued their punishment.

Failed Hunting Patrol: If a hunting patrol fails to be reported on time or is reported late, all warriors assigned to that patrol risk being tasked with hunting and bringing back two or more fresh-kill to the Clan. This will require three posts in total before the punishment can be complete; one here to accept their punishment, one in their assigned hunting areas, and one here to report to who issued their punishment.

Failed Herb Patrol: If a herb patrol fails to be reported on time or is reported late, a punishment will be issued at Stonepaw's [ @/carmen ] discretion. The punishment will require three posts in total before the punishment can be complete; one here to accept their punishment, one completing their punishment, and one here to report back to Stonepaw.

Repeated failure to complete punishments:
In the event a warrior repeatedly fails to complete their punishment, they risk several consequences depending on the circumstances; they may be stripped of their mentor status and temporarily banned from taking an apprentice, be demoted back to apprentice status, or be temporarily exiled. Apprentices repeatedly failing to complete their punishment will risk temporary demotion back to kit status or camp confinement.

Regular Punishments:
Cats called for something other than patrols - such as encouraging outsider trespassing, assisting outsiders into the camp, or attacking their Clanmates - will receive regular punishments of either camp confinement or demotion. If there are repeated occurrences of either of the aforementioned violations, they may be permanently exiled depending on the circumstances.

Extreme Cases:
In cases where the cat poses an active threat to the clan's safety, and exile is not deemed a viable option, the death of the cat will be ordered. This will take place with either the use of death-berries or a physical altercation in which a killing blow will be delivered.

Punishments performed here, unless otherwise stated, are done in the clearing at the base of the Streamstone.
The Clan, if present, should be aware of what punishments have been given out if they are in the clearing at the time.
