What apprenticeship establishes about progression
The announcement frames the story as a journey from training into a larger destiny, while Trailmark says players can rise through the ranks and build a Clan legacy.[1][2] Together, those statements confirm rank progression in broad terms without publishing a full promotion ladder or numeric requirements.
Confirmed apprentice activities
- Battle training: hone skills and defend borders.[1]
- Hunting: hunt to feed the Clan.[1]
- Exploration: travel iconic locations and territories.[1]
- Story: respond to a new prophecy and the destiny laid out by StarClan.[1]
What “rise through the ranks” does not confirm
Trailmark’s wording supports advancement, but not a specific sequence of apprentice → warrior → deputy → leader for the player.[2] The game may use narrative ranks, progression tiers or campaign-specific promotions. Claims about becoming leader should remain unconfirmed until the feature is shown.
Mentors and learning
Trailmark says players can learn from powerful mentors while meeting both iconic book characters and an original cast.[2] It does not yet name the player’s mentor in each campaign or explain whether mentors change through choices.
Post-launch progression questions
- When and how the player earns a warrior name
- Whether promotion timing differs by Clan
- Which quests are mandatory for rank changes
- Whether choices can delay or alter promotion
- Whether higher ranks unlock abilities, areas or social options

Apprentice progression: confirmed scope
The official announcement establishes an apprentice starting point and a coming-of-age journey, but it does not publish exact levels, training rewards, promotion tests or a skill tree. The useful pre-release answer is therefore about the role and progression theme, while step-by-step promotion requirements must wait for official gameplay or the released game.
