True honour lies not in restricting yourself to honourable activities, but in retaining your honour and pride even when forced to flee.
DuskClan is the Clan of peace, serenity and healing. The Clan's warriors all have a basic grasp of healing herbs, and the two medicine cats are far better than those of any other Clan. They prefer neither to fight nor serve the Higher Cats; they run when they see them, flee before their wrath, and on the occasion that the Higher Cats catch this elusive Clan, they heal the damage done afterwards with their knowledge of healing herbs.
DuskClan cats are swift, secretive, and all have a good knowledge of healing. Apprentices all spend their fifth moon training under the medicine cat, learning basic herbs and remedies, before they commence their apprenticeships in their sixth moon; some will study under warriors, learning a few more herbs as well as fighting and hunting, and some will study under the medicine cats. The cats that become medicine apprentices and medicine cats are lucky; DuskClan picks selectively and medicine cats receive great honour in this Clan, with almost as much power as the leader, and more than the deputy.
DuskClan are, in fact, so elusive that they do not have a camp; they move their camp every day, relying on secrecy and the fact that the enemy never know where to find them to protect them, rather than woven-twig walls or easily defended positions.
This makes it especially important that all their warriors know basic herbs; moving the camp so often makes it impossible for medicine cats to build up any more stores of herbs than cats can carry in their mouths when camp is moved, so medicine cats need to be able to send warriors for needed herbs at any time and know they'll come back with the right one in time to save their patient.
