Rushing Torrent Dynasty has made their home in the north western area of the valley. Their territory is a vast maple and birch forest with several rivers and ponds scattered all about it.

• *Hotsprings* – A rocky clearing that has many pools of unusually warm water. It is a great hangout spot in the fall and winter.
• *Great Willow* – A gigantic willow tree that hangs over a sparkling blue pond. This is said to be the original place that the Dynasty settled before moving to a much bigger camp.
• *Scar River* – A large river that runs through the mountains and down into the territory. It is named after Emperor Scar Strike, the son of Empress Rushing Torrent, as Emperor Scar Strike claimed the river and the land around it from a hostile gang of nomads.

• The Dynasty’s camp is located in the heart of their territory, hidden within a massive underground cavern. A river runs through the center of camp, leading to a large underground pond in the back used to train kittens to swim.
• The only natural entrance is where the river flows into a narrow tunnel, only cats who can hold their breath can enter this way safely without drowning.
• Glowworms scatter across the cavern ceiling, casting a soft, eerie light that illuminates the camp with a natural glow.
• At the center of the camp stands a towering stone pillar decorated with pawprints and painted symbols from former Emperors and Empresses. Prey is stored at the base of the pillar, elevated to keep it dry.
• Due to moisture, mold is a risk — the camp is inspected daily, and mold is quickly cleared to ensure safety.
• The Emperor’s den is carved into the top of the pillar and is accessible via a climbable path of strategically placed rocks.
• The Maternity and Veterans dens share a spacious side cave near the back wall, with the Healers den located nearby for easy access.
• The Fledglings den is an open mossy divot near the camp’s front, surrounded by rocks and plants.
• There are four Soldier dens: two near the front and two tucked into the cavern walls near the river’s center.
• The Gathering Stone is a pile of moss-covered rocks resting directly in the center of the river — a symbolic and literal heart of the Dynasty.

• This dynasty is built on organization. Everyone has a role and they do it and do it properly in a constant cycle of tradition.
• Another major role of this dynasty is it's compassion and care for one another. The care for kittens is shared by all the dynasty, every cat will treat as kitten as it's own and when a maiden needs a break, those closest to her will step in to oversee a kittens care.
• They take ideas from Verdant Plains and use traps for certain sea animals.

• Cleaner – nstead of rescuers, cats who are undergrads become cleaners and are charged with an important job; clean mold. Mold is a very serious problem, so cleaners once graduating from a fledgling are instantly trained on how to spot, clean, and safely dispose of moldy sections to keep the camp clean and healthy.
• Fishers – While all cats in Rushing torrent Dynasty hunt by fishing, the Fisher cats are particularly skilled at it. Their jobs are to set, check, and empty any of the underwater fishing traps.
