Decided to post here in case anyone else wonders and it gets lost in the chat.
Will StarClan and Dark Forest cats be Non Player Characters? Or will we be able to, once our characters die, continue playing them sometimes in order to subtly influence the cats in the clans? Or not so subtly. (See: Tigerstar with Brambleclaw and Hawkfrost.)

Ahh, this is a good question. I've actually been thinking about the StarClan aspect of this site a lot lately, so I'm glad this came up. I may go off on a tangent, so I apologize in advance!
This roleplay is largely focused around the living cats and less so on those that have come before them, although they are still important. Because of that, I think it's best to have deceased characters become Non Player Characters, so players can potentially pick up a new character and keep the story moving rather than focusing on cats of the past. However, it could be possible for cats to come back for brief visits such as in dreams, during leader ceremonies, etc.
I still have a few things to work out so they make sense, but overall, to answer your question, characters will become NPCs when they die.
As for the Dark Forest, I'm unsure as to whether or not we'll be including it at all. The line between "good" and "bad" is rather vague, since morality isn't really black and white. It may be a better idea to have all cats go to StarClan (as long as they believe in it, of course).
