The three Tribes are the Tribe of Squirrels, Tribe of Sparrows, and Tribe of Owls (or SquirrelTribe, SparrowTribe, and OwlTribe, if you'd like to save a bit of typing). The Tribe of Soaring is their equivalent of StarClan.
SquirrelTribe
Healer: Teller of Falling Leaves (Leafteller)
Camp-guards: ----
Prey-hunters: ----
To-bes: ----
Kit-mothers: ----
Vagabonds Waiting for Acceptance: ----
The Tribe of Squirrels occupies the oak forest on the eastern part of the three Tribes' territory. Riddled with ravines and bluffs, it is a treacherous place if one doesn't know their way around. The River of Seasons forms their border with OwlTribe and an old barbed wire fence, which once blocked forest from pasture, separates them from SparrowTribe.
SquirrelTribe cats are the most territorial of the Tribes, and arguably the best fighters. They are well-adapted to their forest home, expert tree-climbers (and reckless tree-leapers), who have developed an immunization to poison ivy, the plant that grows thick in certain parts of the forest, and causes a burning itch to most cats.
SparrowTribe
Healer: Teller of Restless Winds (Windteller)
Camp-guards: ----
Prey-hunters: ----
To-bes: ----
Kit-mothers: ----
Vagabonds Waiting for Acceptance: ----
SparrowTribe occupy the south-western plains of the territory, a mostly flat expanse with tall grass and a few gnarled trees. Here the River of Seasons breaks into smaller streams, which bubble around all through the territory. Their border with OwlTribe is an old Keeper (Twoleg) road, now just a scar between the pines and grass.
SparrowTribe cats may not be the most skilled fighters of the Tribes, but they certainly seem to enjoy it the most. These small, sturdy cats just love a good squabble. It has been said the cats of SparrowTribe share the closest bond between them. Endlessly loyal to their Tribe, they will not hesitate to spark an argument if they feel it is threatened, or just because they can.
OwlTribe
Healer: Teller of Glowing Moon (Moonteller)
Camp-guards: Dapple of Sun Through Leaves (Dapple)
Prey-hunters: ----
To-bes: ----
Kit-mothers: ----
Vagabonds Waiting for Acceptance: ----
OwlTribe inhabits the northern pine forest of the territory. It is a gloomy place, where the River of Seasons breaks from its powerful course through SquirrelTribe to wind in the shade.
The Tribe of Owls, as befits their territory, are a silent and secretive lot. Many see them as devious, plotting, and perhaps a shade evil. True, they are most clever of the Tribes and the best hunters. Half the time no one is sure what they are up to. For the most part, OwlTribe cats do not desire power and stay away from fights not out of nobility, but disdain. Wise and mysterious, they prefer to keep to themselves.
Vagabonds
Vagabonds: ----
Tamed: ----
The name 'vagabond' covers a wide variety of cats. Any feline who has no Tribe is labeled as such. Tamed is the only more specific category; it refers to the house pets that live on the other side of the lake with their Keepers. Vagabonds occupy the borderlands, a disused barn here and an abandoned burrow there. No specific lands are designated as vagabond territory, though they will certainly be punished if they venture onto the Tribes'.
