How to RP as a DEPUTY in WCUE in only 5 STEPS | EXP Advice | Valkyrie Studios 

One time, our leader was *extremely* inexperienced. I stood up for deputy so I coild give the clan a better leader, and got it! I got many compliments when I had to go and we managed to even tie a fox invasian to give some spice! Unfortunately nearly nobody had to go on patrols & I even had my own apprentice - although they has to go first session. It was so fun! ❤

I always pay close attention to how each person roleplays, and that’s how I choose a deputy. I think it’s the best and funnest way to choose, especially when no one needs you.

Once I was leader and some random person came up on the rock, and changed their role to deputy without asking. I was annoyed but we didn’t have a deputy yet so I kept my mouth shut. Edit: please don’t be like them, ask before claiming the deputy spot.

Deputy is one of my favorite roles, only when the clan is exp or decent however. I personally think it’s important to not leap for deputy the moment you join a server. I am a bit of a hypocrite since I have leaped for it before, but that’s normally when I’ve been bored and too lazy. My personal rules for when I try for deputy are: -Haven gone on at least three patrols. -Roleplayed around camp significantly. -Talked briefly with specs. -Had an apprentice (either mentored or still mentoring). -At least a few platonic relationships. -Be in that server for at least an hour. -Have a bio I think is telling of my character (usually some kitty that’s loyal with a good eye for prey, that’s very basic but it’s one of my favorites). Those are just what I do to feel more ready for the role, I understand not everyone likes doing this, but it just makes me feel more calm and steady personally.

It would also be very important to make sure the medicine cat has herbs and if they need an herb party 😊

I remember when I became a deputy in TC rp, I was quite shy and didn't know what to do sadly:( after few minutes the leader was like kicked out of the clan for being disrespectful to an elder then I became a leader, I tried my best to be a leader to I am quite shy and nervous when a high status role is rolled upon me

Wonderful advice/ tutorial :>. And I absolutely h8 when deputies don’t send out patrols when the clan is doing nothing (and is bored). And I get if the deputy is inexperienced but most times they are not! Sigh*

Thanks Valkyrie,the way I rp as a dep is that I always do patrols and send out people who looked bored and have no rps to do then I send one who does so they have no choice to interact and some times they start being friends in rp’s (I haven’t got dep in like 2….6….8 months)

Tysm! I’ve always been so caught up worrying about If I mess up, they would just call me bad. I’m now a lil more better at being dep!

Amazing as always, Valkyrie. This really helps and I know alot of people needed this. Keep up the amazing work, Valkyrie.

Whenever I choose deputy, I mainly look at how the members roleplay, and who is the most interactive and productive with the clan and me. I do this so I usually don't get an inexperienced roleplayer often.

I remember one time; my clan had a pretty un-exp deputy and it kind of bothered me. Patrols were never assigned, and patrols are a very important job for warriors and make the rp more realistic. When I become deputy, I always make sure I'm on schedule and making sure warriors are busy. One tip if you ever become leader! What I like to do when choosing a deputy, I always ask, 'if anyone wants to be deputy, say I!" and I read bios through cinematic camera. (I also choose based off of experience) This mechanism makes the rp more realistic and helpful.

the patrol thing should get a bit easier when the prey uptade comes out afterall everybody has been waiting for it for a while so im pretty sure that they would be okay to go on a hunting patrol the annoying thing is that sometimes they just leave to hunt or go on ''patrols'' when the deputy didn't even tell them to.

I needed this tbh Edit:I will not talk about the horrible things I did as deputy

For Spanish players is really difficult to roleplay most of our server don’t roleplay so we need to join English server but not all people know English or we don’t memorize some words so we use a very short vocabulary and we don’t describe the actions with a lot of detail because we dont know some words you can say we could use translator but is not that fast and natural than I write it with your own hands because of this in English servers we are most of time ignored or dint give us to much importance in the roleplay because our shirt vocabulary making us see as we are not experienced . I hope the warrior cats Spanish community grows some day also sorry for not putting bullet points or if I did write something wrong sorry .

This is really underrated! I’m sure it helped tons of people ^^

Thanks for the advice! Because I mostly never get selected for deputy I dont know how to take the role- In future If I get picked for deputy these tips will surely help me! Thank you very much Val!

this helped So, so, so, SOOO MUCHH tysm! Your videos are amazing and the best keep up the good work!

Your videos help me do much! And in many points I agree with you, this is very interesting to me, i find this really needed to new players and player who had played for a long time too. Thank you for thaking your time and do this!!!

I really love these videos. I'll make sure to use this advice in future rps! ^_^

Thank you, really needed this!

Sense I mainly *always* play as leader (which burns me out so I have been taking many breaks from the role) I always threaten my cats by saying “If you don’t go to sleep no food or dessert for a moon for you.”

Thanks Valkyrie! Love the videos as always

NPPPP and thank you for this video I couldn't handle being a deputy or a leader😭 it was too hard but this with you actually helped me alot

thanks for this !!! :D

Btw I always LOVE hearing ur voice, it’s so cute!

I remember when the leader left and i was the deputy, 3 people was telling the clan to go against me, it was so hard at some point that i just left lol 😂

Very nice drawing, it's awesome!

Thanks to this video, I have become a great deputy! Thanks for the tutorial!

TYSM this will help me alot!

I think I saw you in game and I love your videos!❤

Okay- gotta say it.. I have been writing these stuff down.. ANYWAYS- they give a lot of advice and great suff! My fav is the mentor and app and med! Had to know herbs uses (I don't really know a lot-) mentor gave me a lot LOT of advice and so did app.. my absolute favorite is the elder. Elder is mostly my fav role and I got to know even more!! So keep up the good work!

Ty!

I Became an Deputy,And Didn’t know how Cats Do the Patrols since I am an Chimp.Thanks for the tutorial!

Omg why is ur morph so cute💕

i needed this so badly. i stopped playing WCUE for a few years and just began playing again. yesterday i was almost immediately chosen to be deputy and forgot how to be one 😭 so tysm for this!

I was in a rp for a REALLY long time yesterday,to where we had an un-exp med that needed to pick a leader.And they didnt even go to the moonstone!So i,like a RESPONSILE wcue player,stepped up anyway and became leader.OFC i went to moonstone after picking my deputy,Archery'Eye,and then i was known as Frog'Star!Keep in mind,this rp had already lasted for a quite a long time before i decided to create some drama.(LOSING A LIFE) Its was fun!And then i had 8/9 lives.When i came back to life,i thought it would be a tad bit funny to talkj to the medicine cat,OceanCrash,about the sweet relief of death.She said others might not agree with me,and i agreed with that statement,she wasnt wrong!And soon after that,Archery(The deputy) had become my sweet innocent self's crush in the rp.And BOY was he hesitant.But not long after that,he had to go so i friended him and when he died and left,i cried.alot.But that was in rp.After that,i got my NEW deputy,Red'Fangs.And then i became depressed and there was an invasion from shadowclan that was given permission to.Which i lost a life from.Then,i pretended to get to catnip,died from the gorge(leaving me with 6/9),and....disconnected when Red said i should retire after i called the Clan meeting.YUP.I DISCONNECTED AFTER CALLING A CLAN MEETING.And that is the story of my longest rp.Thank you for your time.PS:The rp was in WindClan

I’m an inexperienced player in wcue, but in my opinion my Ocs’ are good, so did the leader in my rp! (Yay!!) she made me deputy, I was doing fine until she told me to call patrols, I called them but I didn’t know what to do after, I hope this video helps with that! 2nd: Yes! Thank you. This helped me very much. Please make more! I would like to be advanced one day, deputy is a really hard role for me!

“You’ll be surprised of what a little patrol can do.” That struck me hard when i remembered the time Windclan and RiverClan were going into war and I went out on a patrol, ONLY TO FIND THE WINDCLAN LEADER AND A FEW WARRIORS BESIDE THE RIVER. So in hindsight, I’m only here to say this: Join patrols, and give thanks to them. They can be helpful in a war rp (lol) Ppl probably won’t see this comment tho cause this video came out 9 months ago-

My tactic is to either become good friends with the leader, or help them in crisis times, or with the deputy, and kind of claim the 3rd in cmnd

This is another awesome video! Could you maybe a do a travelling loner who comes to the clan from time to time?

One time there was a EXTREMELY un exp lead. I went for dep so they would have a better chance. I had to do ALL the ceromony and things. Then they randomly left so I had to run a messed up clan. It was hard but I got it back into shape and the rp was fun. Then I had to go and it was a sad ending. But alas..

When I got picked deputy for the first time, it was terrifying. The second I became deputy people were stealing food but I couldn’t send out a patrol. And people fainted and died. I even left and said I disconnected it was so scary.

For anyone currently watching this, I'd like to emphasize that the most crucial rule is to stay true to your character and their decision-making process! Always keep in mind that, ultimately, it's a roleplay within an open-world game. If you believe that taking on significant clan roles such as deputy, medicine cat, leader, etc., might negatively impact and disrupt your immersive experience and portrayal of your character, don't feel pressured to take those roles. Enjoy the freedom to shape your character's journey in a way that enhances your overall roleplay experience.

Hello Valkyrie! Could you please do a video on how to roleplay as a med app? Maybe also a video on where all the herbs can be found on the map- I can’t find Poppy anywhere! 😅

THANK YOU I hate when people don’t mentor at least one app and they get the role

Once i played as my favorite cat, BloodyMoons, i was chosen as lead, for example a mini story, (Random characters) Art’Star: BloodyMoons, you are lead. BM: Why? Art’Star, i am not even deputy. AS: Well, your offering for deputy, BloodyMoon may i be your deputy if you are lead, ((i need a break)) BM: oh i under stand, AP: Ok for now ill be know as Art’Pelt BS: Yeah. Ig im BloodyStar now- -then deputy left-

I think more people should be elders. The crazy cats could cause great drama, a cat could go insane or even attack the new leader because they are not following the old ways.

I got chosen as deputy yesterday and I just closed the game for a sec and put on this video and went back in.

Oml, I’ve been wanting to tell this story- I joined an empty clan as a deputy, and I wanted to make ads and stuff. So I’m typing my ad, and then this player walked up on the clan rock. They’re name was Starry’Star (not kidding) and their role was a queen. After I finished my ad, I copied and pasted it. Then I told the player “//you can be on the rock, you aren’t leader, nor deputy. And your name can’t have ‘Star unless you are a leader.//“ She ignored me, and then a kit who was unnamed ran up on the rock. She said “Queen, can you adopt me?” I started explaining that Queens don’t have any power, and they just take care of kits. But they once again ignored me. I just ended up leaving bc it was annoying

OMG YOUR MORPH

For step 5, I feel like my main OC’s best friend if she was deputy would literally be the medicine cat or some random exp cat in the rp.

I was given the choice of going for deputy, there were a few exp players and tons of unclaimable specs so that was a bit annoying but at least some players were exp. I became leader and i feel like the whole server became inexp 😭 medicine cat didn’t know anything abt starclan and had “mate:?” in her bio, my dep who I thought was gonna be exp didn’t do any patrols properly and didn’t even have a bio ready, some of the warriors that didn’t get chosen for deputy started “drowning” themselves in the tiny little puddle of water in the RC camp. (Like how can u drown?) kits didn’t have suffixes and had edgy bios, kept coming on the rock, when i asked an apprentice to “come forward” they jumped on the rock and sat there, deputy keeps going onto the rock as if they’re leader, etc 😭

I have gotten leader a few times and when I am choosing who will be dep, I tell them to step up, then I ask them to”____’____ why do you think you deserve to be dep?”

i recommend that a leader should write down who had an apprentice. then see if they are ok with it out of roleplay. :D

Omg your voice is so beautiful 😭🫶

I'm doing a rp/video of one of my she-cats that becomes deputy. Thanks for helping out. (She was first a kitty pet and joined Thunder clan, she still gets disrespected but later on she gets respected, she becomes one of their top hunters, she gets 1-2 apprentice, she becomes deputy, and she gets a mate and has kits.) 😊❤🥹😊

I was Deputy once, and this leader told me that I couldn’t be Deputy because I wasn’t experienced and they didn’t even say it in a nice way at all. except I don’t really read the books, but I found it very offensive just to do that randomly out of the blue without asking me if I have any experience

4:17 NO BUTS THATS SO RELATABLE, they dont go to sleep at night and they act like they can stay up all day 😭 and they dont do anything but just sit there and chat or something!

You can also put some jobs into the clan chat for anyone to do like say the elders need new moss in the nests or to fix a whole in the wall

I am binge watching these so I can go play WCUE and have a good RP lol

I would like to add one more: DONT EAT KITS

Tbh I find it sooo annoying when people just sit in front of the rock and they have a great bio witch makes them feel like they have a chance (Not saying they don't have one!) And they dont get chosen and they get mad

One time I was deputy who joined the clan a day before from being exiled from shadowclan for murder.

hey, valkyrie! i think your really great at making tips so, i’ve been wanting to ask, can you please, please make a video on how to become a good mentor? let me know please :)

Me roleplaying as deputy: “Oakpelt, Owleye, me and Shatteredclaw shall go on a border patrol, the rest should stay in the camp to guard it if there is any problem. “ - The Tom said. A random anti: But that’s boring. 😕 Me: 💀?))

Could you possibly do how to be a good rouge/loner and/or kittypet? And also how to be a good “new warrior” aka a young warrior? Thank you for doing these!

i know this was made 7 months ago, but heres a tip. if you have problems with stress and you get stressed, possibly ask the leader for a break and for them to appoint a new deputy until you're ready to recover. in wcue, you shouldn't be forced stress because of others. the leader should be responsible enough to accept you need a break. and they're real people. if you specifically say you're stressed or uncomfortable, there should be atleast one solution that isn't leaving the rp or stepping down to warrior again.

A suggestion I have and something I usually struggle with is role-playing sicknesses like green cough. I know this series is usually roles in clan. but please give a tutorial about this if your willing to.

Takes notes*ya I totally know all of this😅

I ought say, almost every single time I get to be the deputy the leader leaves instantly! I don't like being the leader though because I have severe anxiety and it's stressful

Valkyrie, Can you please do a guide on how to be a great warrior. I'm trying to Roleplay as one of the roles i think would fit most of my characters, but I don't know the right way to play them, I would be incredibly thankful if you would do one of those guides.

When I'm deputy I tend to ask if they prefer border / gathering / hunting patorls.. just to make them felling inclined to actully do it. Many don't wanna do border bc they don't know how--

I find it kind of annoying when nobody will do patrols when I am the deputy, but if they don't, I will end up just pretending the patrols were sent out and done because I am lazy and not much else you could do if nobody does it anywayd

This is great thank you but I was wondering if you could make a video of tips on how to be a leader/Deputy like something I could write down because it's easier for me remember it like that thank you!

Hey Valk, can you please make a video or comment here about clan meeting calls? Im not so sure what meeting calls are coresponded to eavh clan if it isnt to much.

I hate how most people just hang out in the middle of camp and do nothing. If you want it realistic, go to your nests when it nighttime, just like the books. If they ask you to join in on patrol, do it. It’s boring if most people sit in the camp doing nothing and claim it’s “realistic”

Once in a roleplay i made a realistic morph and had a bio that made people know i wasnt a powerplayer. So i tried to become deputy, and the leader picked an emo tom who was a powerplayer..

Hi! Since you are a very good roleplayer I think it would be very good if you could do videos where you just record a roleplay/story you play. We could learn a lot from videos like that.

One time, i was a deputy and only ONE cat, my future deputy, did patrols 😭

Hi I am a fan of warrior cats rp alternate edition and can you please make a tutorial how to be a villain

Once I was role playing and the leader chose an un exp apprentice while I was the only warrior stepping up for the role it was probs cuz I was blind in the rp

One time, I was the deputy and the leader had gone hunting for some reason, riverclans leader brought a cat to our den that ate kits, it *really* messed up the whole roleplay I had built as the host and everyone that I had managed to get to join left so it was rlly annoying 😅

I love your skin like the one in the start I wanna copy it In Real game

I find it hilarious how I can be a perfect leader for any clan yet any time I try being deputy it goes horribly, lol. Same with Med, I can micromanage and be strict like any cat from the canon series, being responsible with time and getting my priorities set straight, yet the moment I have to go on a patrol or order one I get hella lost 😭

hii!! im trying to find a more experienced way to choose a deputy and head to the moonstone when the leader leaves. does anybody have some ideas?

I'm pretty sure in the starpedia, it says that you have to mentor two apprentices in order for the deputy role

This one time I joined a server a few weeks ago, and the leader was soooo unexp and so was their clan, un organized and I got deputy and ended up making a better clan and leader

Hey Valkyrie, this might be a tad strange, but I was wondering if you could do a video on Roleplaying as a Mediator? I know its not an official WCUE role yet, but certain Roleplay's make it one. And I recently got the mediator position for a long-term RP, and was wondering how I'd.... go about... Roleplaying that, ig? Yh. Thnx!

When I am a warrior the deputy asks me so many times to lead a patrol. Mostly they ask me for border patrols. Sometimes hunting but I am good at it too. I do it very good. So many times I am the only cat who wants to go on patrols or hunt.

“how to be good at deputy” Me whom is Semi-exp and def doesn’t need to be here: *Yes*

i have played wcue for 5 years, and i am still learning amny many things, like how to set UP patrols, ive always seen other said: "if you are old enough to run in the m00rs, gather around for patrols!" .(name) yells out, hoping for some cats to come.: but i am always scared to do that, bc nobody ever comes, and when i DO get ppl, then id if i was meant to do patrols or hunting patrols, and idk how to say what new players need to do
