{ Hierarchy }

LEADER: The Leaders control the entire pride. They can be a single male or female, or a mated pair, and they will deal out the rules, punishments and ranks. A Leader's say is final.
 
ACCOMPLICE: The Accomplice is the Leader's second-in-command. He or she will perform mostly the same roles as the Leader, but will not have as much power. If both Leaders die without any cubs, or the cubs are too young to lead, the Accomplice will then become Leader.

HEIRS: The heirs are the cubs of the Leader and the Leader's mate. They will be ranked in order of who is first in line to inherit the pride. This can be judged on sex, strength, knowledge or birth order.

DUKE/DUCHESS: The Duke/Duchess is a highly trusted and respected member of the Pride whose main responsibility is to offer advice and support for the Leaders. They are one of the most intelligent cats in the Pride and are chosen based on their wisdom and experience.

WARRIORS: The Warriors are specifically trained to fight in the war for power. They are the soldiers who will go into battle and risk their lives to try and help the Iris Pride win against the other packs. When not training, they will also guard the borders and chase away any vermin that try to enter.

GUARDS: The Guards' specific role is to guard and patrol the pridelands to ensure that no one will slip through the net and attack from within. They will inform the Leader of any trespassers and interrogate those that they spot. Guards are also tasked with watching over the prisoners held within the slaughterhouse, ensuring they do not escape and are given enough food and water to survive.

HUNTERS: The Hunters will provide food for the rest of the pride. Anyone can hunt, but these cats have the specific job of bringing back food for any that are less able. Hunters must be fast, agile, and capable of carrying large amounts of prey from the countryside to the pridelands.

SPIES: The Spies are assigned by the Leader to gather information on what is going on in other packs and to acquire city gossip from other animals. They must be cunning and careful as it is often a very dangerous job.

THE ALLEY CATS: These are the generic members that don't have a specific purpose. They don't have a specialized talent and are just considered average.

VETERANS: The Veterans are respected older members of the pride that aren't able to do much now but give the younger members knowledge. They are often around to train new warriors and look after the cubs.

CUBS: Any feline under a year of age is considered a cub. They are the most vulnerable and must be constantly looked after and trained.

SCUM: The scum are slaves of the Iris Pride, or past members that have betrayed them. All scum are held prisoner within the confines of the slaughterhouse, where they are kept under constant watch. Many are on death row, while others are simply there for the amusement of more sadistic felines.

LOST SOULS: These are the deceased members of the pride, many of whom have gone down fighting. They will never be forgotten whilst ranked under lost souls. May they rest between the stars for eternity.
