FAQ
Will of the Stars is a panfandom isekai-ish Warrior Cats-based game that focuses heavily on plot, player vs environment, and player vs player/npc. This is a short-term game where death is permanent, and players must work with and against each other and NPCs in order to solve the problem at hand and do their best to save the Clans.
Knowledge of the canon is not required to play, and we'll be happy to answer any questions one may ask!
1. Warriors -- what is it?
Warriors is a long-running childrens' book series by Erin Hunter first published in 2003, and features housecats living wild outdoors in social groups called Clans as they fight and hunt to survive with the guidance of their spiritual ancestors in StarClan. There's prophecies and villains who try to take over the cat world and kill each other and stuff, it's wild.
2. How are characters going to fit into cat world?
StarClan is going to put everyone in cat bodies, isekai style. They then may receive prophecies in order to help solve the clan problems.
3. Are characters going to be cats 24/7?
There will be occasional dream sequences the characters can interact in together as their human forms(or whatever counts as their natural body), but for the most part they will be playing throughout the game as their cat selves. While in the dreamscape, characters are physically incapable of talking about prophecies or other plot-related details. Such information can only be traded in the living world.
4. What's the deal with the isekai cat bodies?
Characters' souls/spirits/consciousness/whatever are going to be transported into an already existing cat within the "story." Players will OOCly choose the cat's name, looks, and have some input on where they belong in the world, but they will receive some information related to their cat's "original self" such as relationships with other cats(both npcs or pcs).
5. What happens if a character gets hurt?
There are a variety of things that can harm your character or an npc: predators, vehicles, illness, other cats, the environment... many small events like predators or environmental issues will be decided by the mods via dicerolls.
Death is permanent and a dead cat will no longer be able to play within the "real life," though may appear within the dreamscape as their own spirit or as a StarClan cat. They are still beholden to the non-disclosure agreement though, haha.
6. What about characters with supernatural/etc canon powers?
Canon powers will be mostly gone. On a case-by-case basis, we may decide whether or not some aspect of a power may be kept dependent on how it can best interact with the world or plot.
7. What kind of characters can be apped?
Anybody, save for canon Warriors characters. So all other canons, tabletops, OCs, etc are all gucci.
