Undertakers are a Clans of the Emerald Isle exclusive role, something new to add to the dynamics of clan life! In this post, we'll delve more in depth for the responsibilities and privileges given to the cats in these roles.
The Undertaker of each clan is a singular cat meant to serve under the will of Shade's Wing. Shade's Wing is a mythological figure acting as a "grim reaper" to the clans. She is an all black cat with wings, a guide to cats going to Starclan. Undertakers typically pray to her, as any signs or omens come from her guidance directly. Other cats of Starclan will not communicate to Undertakers. 
These cats are tasked with duties such as burying their clan's dead, keeping count of each cat lost in the moon, observing the ways of death to detect potential threats. If a common cause is found, such as sickness or a predator, the Undertaker will announce such things at gatherings. 
Undertakers typically work until their own passing, as it is an honor to serve Shade's Wing until she decides it is your time to join her. Retirement may get looked down upon by the other Undertakers, but other clanmates wouldn't understand the nuances of such actions. They are expected to take an "apprentice" at 100 moons old. This Undertaker in training should already become a warrior. The clans don't believe it is suitable to take a younger cat and overwhelm them with such a heavy job.
Depictions of Shade's Wing have caused the clans to believe that all-black cats work the best as Undertakers. This is not a required trait by any means, they simply believe that they have Starclan's blessing to thrive in such a role.
The Undertakers meet on every new moon at the Stone Garden. The Stone Garden is an overgrown graveyard outside of the Gathering Place. During their meetings, they talk about their death counts and see if they have been given any omens from Shade's Wing.
Interested in participating in this role? We have two opportunities for you! Cloverclan's Ragwortpatch is the oldest Undertaker currently alive, and is up for adoption. We will also be accepting Original Character applications for Ragwortpatch's apprentice. They can be any warrior-age cat from Cloverclan!
Both Knollclan and Lochclan's Undertaker roles are filled, but future opportunities will be given in roleplay! Knollclan's Hollowscreech and Lochclan's Wolfhowl are featured in the art above.

Ragwortpatch | Cloverclan Undertaker | 145 Moons | Any Gender | Adoptable!
art by mod echo (@eggopaw)
As the oldest living Undertaker of all three clans, Ragwortpatch has seen many things. Death is hardly something this old cat blinks an eye at anymore, although, they will always mourn their clanmates properly. They expect Shade’s Wing will come to take them soon, but until then, they’re going to work hard to teaching their apprentice and help Cloverclan.
Personality wise, Ragwortpatch is a bit eccentric. They enjoy frightening the younger cats into behaving, often claiming if kits don’t listen to their parents, the bones of the dead will come and take them from their nests!
This, of course, is false. Ragwortpatch just gets a kick out of watching the kits run away and hide in their parent’s fur.
The rest of their personality and backstory is up to the adopter! Some suggestions include…
- How did Ragwortpatch come to lose vision in their right eye? The story they tell changes each time, but cats like Dandelionstar remember what really happened.
- Ragwortpatch is old enough to know Knollclan and Lochclan’s past Undertakers. What was their friendship like?
- Undertakers are not discouraged from taking mates or starting families, yet it is still a rare occurrence. Many cats, especially those in Cloverclan, do not wish to be romantically involved with someone so entrenched with the dead. Ragwortpatch may have experiences with this.

Hey, so for CloverClan, I'm kind of confused about the Undertaker. It says there's usually just a singular undertaker, and Ragwort is already an adoptable for that role, but the OC application also allows you to submit a cat in the role of Undertaker for CloverClan. Is it going to be either Ragwort or an OC, both, the OC is an apprentice, or is it a mistake?
This is detailed in the Undertaker post, but it's both! Undertakers are expected to take an "apprentice" of sorts (an older cat, one who has already been trained and become a warrior) whenever they turn 100 moons old. Ragwortpatch is over 100 moons, so they've taken an apprentice to help them!
For CloverClan, there will be Ragwortpatch and the OC apprentice.
