I wanted to make a quick note to everyone here about the ages of cats. A typical apprentice becomes a warrior at 12 moons. At this age they are at a maturity levle equil to a modern day twelve year old.
With this said, being a deputy by 20 moons Is like having an 18 year old be vice-mayor. Not to mention that before a cat can become deputy, they must mentor at least one apprentice which is a six moon investment. Which means at 20 moons.they would have only had a two moon buffer and the pre its leader giving a 14 moon old cat an apprentice of their very own is very low.
On a somewhat separate note, a medicine cat apprentice is still considered an apprentice even if they have their full name- as long as their mentor is still alive. There is no appropriate age at which a cat can become The medicine cat (I play a cat who became full medical at only 10 moons after the tragic death of her mentor) but the passing of their mentor needs[\I] to be mentioned in their history.
If you have any questions when making your character regarding an appropriate age please don't hesitate to ask. Most of us don't bite!
