Divine Brands

Inspiration from @bonefall's honor titles. However, I'm bringing my own twist.

Divine Brands are names given to cats for incredible feats or surviving a situation that should've killed. Most often the latter.

These range from be named by the gods to after a guild's symbol to the event itself.

It's an honor to receive such a name. To receive one is to say you are a demi-god among the mortals. That the gods have given a piece of their power to these cats.

That by definition: you are best of the bunch and you have earned all that has.

Some examples are:

Rosettetalon

Sabersong

Snowdroptuft

Piercingsun

Morningroar

To reject a chance at a divine brand is allowed however it is seen as rejecting the gods blessing and many cats can't fathom why a cat would do such a thing.

Like asking for a curse or to be shamed.

Ooh what’s the story’s behind the examples of Divine titles?

Rosettetalon

Took on a Wolanits all on her own and survived with relative scarring. She has the fangs as her trophy.

Sabersong

Faced off a beaohog by herself. It was an unexpected enough for him but he dealt with the challenge with lost antlers but emerged from the clerics with teeth and glory.

Morningroar

It was unexpected but it seemed the lion deem Morning a worthy soul for his power. His yowl of battle was far from a typical one, a roar more like. A roar of courage and bravery, to not back down, and victory. A battle was won that day and a name was placed.

Piercingsun

Sunning hadn't given it much thought, all she saw was a rebel scorpitoer attacking her guildmates. Just like the god, she went for the head until the beast was no more.

Snowdroptuft

Took down a gyrfalcon that was going for the cubs. Kept the talons and wings. He was offered the full title of Fallentuft however he counteroffered with his own combintion.
