I enjoy playing the apprentice/warrior roles. I'm sure you all be will needing some of those!

If there is room, I have a character idea for a med. cat apprentice. If there isn't though, I'm perfectly fine with playing warriors and/or apprentices.

The plot ideas all sound very intriguing, I really like both the storm and the disease concept.
We could also have the seasonal droughts/famines as well if we need any more conflict (though I doubt it).
