Messengers

See this page for a list of all messengers.

Messengers are cats that serve to deliver news between Clans. Each Clan has one full messenger at a time, with that one messenger training an apprentice to take their place when they die or retire.

All messengers meet up at the gathering island every day, just after sunrise, to share daily news. Often, if something happens that necessitates urgent input or assistance from another Clan, a messenger journeys to the other Clan's camp to inform them of the situation and what is requested of them. Messengers are chosen for speed and stamina, and generally must be available for duty at all times. Though they can do small jobs around camp and sometimes hunt or fight, they are expected to always be close by and ready to deliver a message.

Often, a messenger's Clanmates keep in contact with their friends and loved ones through messengers, and as such part of a messenger's role is asking after the status of cats from other Clans, sending messages and even handing off gifts to other messengers or delivering ones directed towards their Clanmates.
