> Fireflyfortune isn’t ready to be a mentor. At least she doesn’t believe she is. She’s worried that her apprentices won’t learn enough from her. So, from sunup to sundown after the ceremony she was given her apprentices, she brainstormed the perfect teaching outline, something that could give her apprentices a much-needed guide to being a warrior. I present to you: Fireflyfortune’s Graduated Learning Plan! > How does it work? Fireflyfortune has broken the many aspects of warriorhood into groups. Her apprentices are expected to at least learn a little bit of everything, but she recognizes that some cats like to specialize in some fields. Each section is broken down into five lessons, each more difficult than the last. If an apprentice completes the first lesson, Fireflyfortune will teach them the second lesson! Apprentices who manage to complete every single lesson for a category will receive an in-roleplay award from Fireflyfortune for their dedication. Apprentices will have their name listed by the lesson that they are on. With that out of the way, let’s get on to the categories! (Lessons can be repeated for additional EXP gain) > Current Apprentices: - Sallowpaw - Firepaw > Preliminary Lesson (Required before any others): Tour of the territory > HUNTING Lesson One: Hunting Crouch (Sallowpaw, Firepaw) Lesson Two: Pounces on varying terrain Lesson Three: Chasing fleeing prey Lesson Four: Hunting among tree branches Lesson Five: Hunting without sight Completion Reward: A preserved fur scrap from the apprentice’s first catch > FISHING Lesson One: Covering Shadows (Sallowpaw, Firepaw) Lesson Two: Properly de-scaling a fish Lesson Three: Catching Fish with Paws Lesson Four: Catching Fish with Mouth Lesson Five: Fishing in the water Completion Reward: A vine bracelet adorned with preserved fish fins > APPRENTICE CHORES Lesson One: Cleaning Mossbeds (Sallowpaw, Firepaw) Lesson Two: Sorting the Prey Pile Lesson Three: Repairing the Camp Defenses Lesson Four: Playing with Kits Lesson Five: Sorting Herbs for the Medics Completion Reward: Rose adornments for the apprentice’s mossbed > FIGHTING (TRADITIONAL) Lesson One: Fighting Crouch (Sallowpaw, Firepaw) Lesson Two: Front paw swipe Lesson Three: Back kick Lesson Four: Tackling Lesson Five: Killshots Completion Reward: Laurel Wreath > FIGHTING (UNTRADITIONAL) Lesson One: Fighting in the Dark (Sallowpaw, Firepaw) Lesson Two: 2v2s Lesson Three: Fighting in treetops Lesson Four: Fighting in Water Lesson Five: Surprise Attacks Completion Reward: Lotus Flower > BORDER PATROLS Lesson One: Recognizing Scents (Sallowpaw, Firepaw) Lesson Two: Mapping Borders Lesson Three: Peaceful Interactions Lesson Four: Handling Trespassers Lesson Five: Border Scuffles Completion Reward: Bark “plate” for eating prey > SURVIVAL SKILLS Lesson One: Finding Fresh Water (Sallowpaw, Firepaw) Lesson Two: Covering Scent Trails Lesson Three: Sustenance Hunting Lesson Four: Building Personal Shelter Lesson Five: Long-Distance Sprints Completion Reward: Crow Feather > FINAL EXAM As the final training thread between Fireflyforutne and her apprentices, she will administer a final exam.
