Gonna Retcon Some Ages. I Made Cats Too Old For What I Had In Mind, Because I Applied (probably Misunderstood)

A promised ref for some of the background cats in the last page. This one has slightly different style due to how quickly it was made, but the rest should be more consistent. ---- Current Name: Tallcloud Clan: ShadowClan Rank: Warrior - Fighter, Trainer, Guard

Status: Alive Age: Around 4 Years Gender: Agender (Any Pronouns) Parents: Mossystone (sire), Unknown Mother Siblings: Miststripe Mate: Viperleap Kits: None Yet

Info: Tallcloud is a quiet and serious cat, which can be found either resting or training. She is considered the most taleneted fighter and despite her relatively young age she is quickly picking up a knack for teaching others.

He deosnt seem to be interested in the leading position, prefering to be in charge of smaller group of cats than the entire Clan. Despite their quiet nature, they appreciate humor, which is why they picked Viperleap as their mate. Tallcloud enjoys the shenienigans the tom gets into and is essentially his protector. But when it comes to nonsense or drama, she prefers to just walk away, ignoring it entirely until she deems it too disruptive for regular clan life. In these cases she tends to pin cats down until they calm down, few cats being capable of escaping her firm grip.

This nurturing nature was pointed out to them by their family, which made Tallcloud wonder… Maybe he could have kits soon? In apperance, Tallcloud is rather muscular, on top of having rounder features. She is of average size.

Quick re-upload, cuz I noticed error with shadows (and took the oppurtunity to just re-do them). Anyways, here we are introduced to a current (for now) leader of ShadowClan, Roaringstar. Stinky stinky old man.

The Clans of the Serpent Lake

Author's Note Here is lore for my new clangen playtrough. Im sorry for not continuing Spottedstar's Reign as I should, I just lack motivation for it. Lore is based on a real lake. Points to those who guess which lmao. The only hit I will give is that it's in Poland. Regardless, this thing absorbed me and Im having fun writing stories based on these little pixel guys. Note though, ShoreClan is not currently being played. Three clans is already a lot, and I still need to decide how I tackle the missing clan.

Once, the lake was a river. But just like the seasons change, so the unknowable whims of twolegs.

There were sings years before The Flood began. It started with those most sensitive to the ancestors and omens beggining to feel constanly uneasy. With seasons it progressed into unclear visions and then dreams. Dreams of water, drowning, serpents devouring each other. Alongside that, new twolegs began showing up with increasing frequency, seemingly frustrating the ones that already lived by the rivers. And they began constructing something. A wall so tall it nearly rivaled the hills around.

Reading the clear warnings and guided by their ancestors, the leaders of four Clans decided to leave, before the disaster could strike. And just as they did, the water level began rising.

It was not an easy time. Some cats died, exploring a mostly unknown terrain and trying to figure out how far they should go. Conflict between long time rivals, FalconClan and MossClan did not help. Their hatered run so deep no one could unearth the roots of it. LindenClan tried to keep the peace. After a failed attempt at resolving the conflict that resulted in another bloody battle in which several lives were lost, ShoreClan's leader finally had enough. He gathered his cats and left the Clans, proclaiming that ShoreClan will not share their doomed fate. Since that day, no one saw ShoreClan ever again.

A vision came. A dying hawk in the snow. When it breathed it's last breath, a spring came. Linden's sapling grew. Falcons soared above. Moss quietly grew in the warm shadow of a forest. And just as was foretold, when Hawkstar of FalconClan lost his last life, spring has arrived. And so, the age of Serpent River was no more, and the age of Serpent Lake began.

MossClan Rivals to FalconClan. The feud is generations long and keeps getting reignited ever so often. The roots of it have been forgotten. MossClan claim to be the oldest group, with great sages of the past long traveling to the river in a great migration. They believe in magic, the power of futuresight in their ancestors and omens. They can be quite superstitious, but arent beyond reason. Instead of mourning, they celebrate deaths, believeing that those who die, become something greater after death. Some only respect those who died in their elder years, but the belief overall is that even someone dying young can gain knowleadge and guide cats to avoid early death. So the living cats pray to kits who died young for safety of their newborns, apprentices pray to other apprentices to avoid trouble etc. Generally, living to old age is both a privilage and the highest achievement for the cat.

FalconClan Rivals to MossClan, they have a long history of wars and hostility, despite being considered the youngest group. Falcons are war-like, great fishers and swimmers. They only accept strong loner and rogues, who can hunt. They don't believe in prophecies, but still respect the dead, leaving them gifts at the graves and singing songs of great battles. Falcons also believe their ancestors can warn them, but its strictly in present time. They see Mosses as crazy religious lunatics who constantly excuse their atrocities with either prophecy or ancestors will.

LindenClan The largest clan, territory and numbers wise far exceeding the others. They are historians who focuse on bloodlines and accurate retellings. They have a special rank that focuses on that, though all cats are encourage to contribute and help the lore masters. They are also lead by a dynastic rule. Eldest child inherits leader's position and the leader typically becomes mentor of their heir. They can be seen as quite nosy and treat borders more loosely. Some used it to cause harm, so LindenClan put stricter rules on permission to cross borders.

ShoreClan Mysterious fourth clan, who left the alliance, believing the others would lead to their ventual doom. Back when they still lived close, they were known to be a clan of loners and house cats, living closest to twolegs. Their rank structure resembled more a colony than a clan, the leaders often being either the oldest female or male with the most mates and kits. Despite that, they were not a dynastic rule. Those popular or dominant within the clan often being chosen for deputy more by the clan cats than the leader. In general, the concept of deputy was far more undefined and fluid. Only in recent times they began attempting to more regulate the voting system and ranks. This was not easy, trail and error lead to internal conflicts and civil war, which traumatized many within ShoreClan. LindenClan historians believe this trauma resulted in ShoreClan's negative attidtude towards other Clans that lead to their departure.

I probably won't reblog any other post again (this account being dedicated to the comic I barely update lmao) but this thing just struck me. It just perfectly represents most of my gripes with stories I read or watched in past years.

I feel like so many problems people have with tv at the moment could be solved if we just went back to the good ole days of 20 episodes a season that’s just sixty percent filler and character development. Give the people what they want- less condensed story and more meaningless shenanigans

I decided ''fuck it, we ball'' and started making Warriors comic.

Have a preview. I hate buildings lol, thankfully they will have limited apperances.

Very loose style, cuz I just find it fun when doing it on krita.

Page 2! I hope to get out page 3 sooner than this one. This page would have actually be done ealier, but I couldn't decide on color scheme for the next scene for a while.

If anyone is wondering, this takes place around late 1800s to early 1900s in Poland. I haven't decided on exact date and it's not overly important, but it does play a role in why ShadowClan wants to move from the city.

Anybody has their brain so rotted by Warrior Cats that every time they see a full moon they are like "Ah yes, tonight is The Gathering."

Because I sure do...

After the death of ShadowClan's previous leader, Roaringstar, who left the Clan without a deputy, a vision is given to the healer. Influenced by it, she picks a warrior named Spottedfur. Now Spottedstar, the molly is tasked with leading ShadowClan from thetwolegplace to the forest and establish it as a faction worth considering and not just a band of rogues. But the road twoards this vision is long and dificcult. Spottedstar will not only need to battle other Clans, but her own flaws and conflicts within her own group. Prologue (Page 1)

A cover for the mentioned comic!

So, uh, fun fact. I kind of changed the main character last minute. Previously it was meant to be Ravenheart, but he was pretty meh in character development range.

Spottedstar though... She has a lot of things going on. A lot of things to go trough. In general, she works much better as the main character in this case.

Page 1 will be uploaded soon!

Sorry the pages are taking so long, had and still have several things on my head (finished second year of uni, had to find a work place for practice in which I have to spend 8 hours a day, entered artfight and broke my glasses, without which I cannot even see my laptop).

But I will start working on the page today the moment I will be done with work.

A new ref for old Warriors OC, Ravenheart. Stara jak ja postać z Wojaków. Skubaniec doczekał się remake'u. Jak bede miała czas to zrobię nowe refy do innych starych postaci. Teoretycznie jeszcze jeden jest skończony, ale jest do dość mało ważnej postaci. Krucze Serce miał bardzo podobne backstory do Ognistej Gwiazdy, jednak zmieniłam ją dość mocno z czasem. Dalej jest on byłym domowym kotem, jednak jego dołączenie do Klanu Cienia wynika z tego, że chciał odprowadzić zaginionego kociaka z powrotem do rodziny. Potem już nie mógł znaleźć drogi do domu a kultura wojowników mu zaimponowała. Dołączył już też jako dorosły kot. Tam poznał Cętkowaną Gwiazdę, nową przywódczynię, która miała za zadanie osiedlić Klan Cienia z powrotem w lesie (kompletnie niekanoniczne, wynik mojego re-write'u całego świata wojaków na podstawie moich interpretacji z dzieciństwa kiedy nie znałam angielskiego), z którą z czasem został partnerami po pomocy jej w konfliktach z Klanem Pioruna. Mieli oni razem jeden miot kociaków, wszystkich synów, z których jeden umarł niedługo po porodzie, a jeden (Szybka Rzeka) został odtrącony przez matkę, gdyż był słaby. Nim zajmował się głównie ojciec. Kiedy Krwawe Futro i Lamparci Pazur byli już wystarczająco dorośli i doświadczeni, Krucze Serce odstąpił swojej pozycji zastępcy aby dać im szansę. Nie uważał się zresztą za dobrego przywódcę. Kurcze Serce przeżył swoją partnerkę, mimo iż miała ona 9 żyć do dyspozycji (głównie przez jej konfliktowość i wojny z Klanem Pioruna i Wiatru).
