RavenClan- Moon 1

Last | Next (TBA)

Little bit of a style switch up- I think I like this better for moons, even if it was originally what I intended to be for asks. Not sure if every moon will be shaded or not, but this one is. Meet the rest of the cast!

Antlerkit's paws are so big, I hate drawing kittens.

Moon 46-Leaf-bare

More bad news.  Brightfalcon(89) has become nest-ridden with grief and nightmares of her lost mate.  She is unable to work.  To make matters worse, Howlkit (5) hasn’t recovered from her kittencough and is now very sore on top of it.  Furthermore, Bushmask (56) has come down with Yellowcough.  The Clan worries that some of these cats won’t survive.  Shadestar (141) is very stressed, but appreciates how reliable Sunflower (110) is.  Shadestar was checking in on the sick cats, and overheard a joke from Howlkit that she didn’t get.  She doesn’t care though.  She just wants her Clan to be healthy again.  Chervilcry (25) confides in Stonefreckle (29) that she is feeling overworked from the stressors that have been plaguing the Clan lately and he comforts her.  Meanwhile, Antlerkit (3) had a nightmare about Brightfalcon dying like Stormrush did, but there was no one there to comfort her.  She feels alone.

Trivia: bug AntlerKit is messing with is a house centipede and I hate them. Also I am in British Colombia at the moment which is where HavenClan is set!

What would warrior cat Alastor's reaction be if Vox was killed like Brindleface? Say Vox asked him to stay with their kits, and he agreed to spend time with them while He, Vox, Went for a walk and the their tomkit--uh..Antlerkit(?) asks where Vox is shortly before Fireheart returns with Vox's body and the news? How would he take the information that Vox was left as incentive for dogs, to lead them to the clan to kill everyone? Would he hate Tigerkin? Or just Tigerstar? And would he join the run against the dogs? Would he raise his kits?

Considering how Alastor already hates dogs, he would gladly join the hunt. He wouldn't hate all Tigerkin (I don't even know how the Tigerstar or the Fireheart of this Au would be), but he wouldn't trust them with his kits. He would raise his kits in place of Vox. They would be his last connection to Vox, after all. He probably would fall into a deep depression though

Alastor would make a great babysitter while he's getting over his grief

Cautionary Tale: ??

Story: 

Tragedy began before her mind could fully register what it meant.

Kitekit had eagerly lead Antlerkit, Palekit, Brightkit, and Lizardkit out of the territory while their mother slept. It was a fun adventure filled with cool new smells and amazing sights and so many sounds. It was so cool!

That was, until they heard barking. The kits ran but their legs were still short and stubby. They sprang up a tree, climbing easily thanks to their sharp kitten-claws. But Kitekit had bravely helped each of his littermates up the bark before he joined, but by then it was too late, and his siblings watched in horror as the dog snatched him up in a single bite, silencing his wail.

The kits would stay stuck in the tree, shivering and crying, until they were found by a patrol and returned to camp.

It was hard for them to process the trauma when they were still too young to fully process it. They knew that Kitekit was dead, they knew what that meant, and they had seen it themselves--but having to see it while they still had kitten fluff in their ears?

But they held onto each other--and their mother--and as the moons passed, the nightmares slowly seized.

Then came the second tragedy.

Like Kitekit, it had come suddenly. Lizardpaw was here one day, gone the next, thanks to a storm that broke while he was out on patrol.

It was harder now to accept that there were even less of them. The only upside with Kitekit's early demise was that, though they loved him dearly, they didn't share a lot of memories with him that would make his loss harder.

The same couldn't be said with Lizardpaw. There would be no more training together, no more sharing prey, no more waking each other up at night to look at the stars. No more anything.

But they still had each other, and that's what they leaned on.

The third tragedy was their mother, killed in battle. Only a moon after came the fourth when Brightshimmer succumbed to an infection.

Only Antlerrose and Palesplash were left. Like every sorrow before, they held onto each other. But this time there was only one cat to hold on to, and Palesplash just held on so tightly.

Antlerrose loved her sister, and the thought of losing her too was agony. But she needed time alone, she needed space, room to breathe, to think, to be.

Even when the grief lessened, Palesplash clung onto her like a bur. It wasn't that Antlerrose didn't understand why. They only had each other left, of course her sister was terrified of losing her too.

But it was just so suffocating.

Antlerrose couldn't go on a patrol or a simple walk without Palesplash insisting on being there too, and then she would spend the entire time looking around cautiously.

Anything that could even have the remote possibility of being a danger would cause Palesplash to spring into action.

Antlerrose is fighting a cat in battle? Palesplash pushes her out of the way so that she could handle it and protect her sister from getting a scratch.

A bird sings out of nowhere? Palesplash is tackling Antlerrose to the ground to save her from a swooping hawk.

Antlerrose sneezes or coughs? Palesplash is dragging her by the scruff to the medicine den and refuses to let her go until she is treated--whether or not the medicine cat tells her everything is okay.

Palesplash treated her like she was no stronger than a delicate feather able to be blown away with a kit's breath.

It was frustrating. Angering.

So Antlerrose woke extra early, hoping to go on just one hunt without her sister there. But she only made it to the top of the ravine before Palesplash was calling her name, and hurried toward her.

Antlerrose couldn't take it, she snapped at Palesplash to leave her alone, and distraught and hurt, her sister snapped back. Both were mad. Both were hurt.

Palesplash cried that she only want to make sure that Antlerrose is safe.

Antlerrose cried that she didn't need her to protect her from a cough or a little scratch. Moons of frustration built up and Antlerrose pushed her.

She regretted it instantly. Palesplash lost her footing and tumbled down the ravine. Antlerrose hurried after her, but then Palesplash hit her head on a rock with a sickening crack and Antlerrose froze.

Her sister.

The only littermate she had left, the only family. Dead.

Because of her.

The piece and quiet that Antlerrose had craved for so long had become a burden.

She couldn't eat without missing the sound of her sister's chattering next to her.

She couldn't sneeze or cough without missing Palesplash's fretting.

She couldn't...she couldn't do anything.

She was so alone.

When another battle came, Antlerrose let out all her grief and rage on the warriors she fought. Because of that, they fought harder against her, pushing her closer to the edge of the rocks until she lost her footing and fell into the water below.

Additional Information: 

--If it wasn't clear, the fight was with RiverClan and the rocks were Sunningrocks.

--Her father is from ShadowClan, and she is Half-Clan

Ashfreckle has killed so many cats I needed to make a list (he only has one confirmed kill ingame but shhhhh ✨suspension of disbelief✨ ✨dramaaaaaa✨)

all his victims in chronological order because I'm extra like that

Reddrift (of course, the queen, the first, the one who has seen everything, the one you should not have killed, etc etc fnaf reference fnaf reference)

Pinkie Pie (she didn't even look like Pinkie Pie, I don't know why they named her that)

Elderdapple (his own wife, literally how dare he)

Antlerkit (the one that was a fox ingame but SHHHH)

Sleetflake (he went missing and was found dead, bro got Ashfreckled😔😔😔)

Woodclaw (an actual ingame murder :0 wowwww)

Marigolddew (she died young and outside the clan sooooooooo... Ashfreckle.)

Jay (the baby)

Partridgechasm (another actual murder!🥳🎉🎉)

if Woodclaw or Partridgechasm turn out to have been murdered by someone else I'll take them off the list but until further notice if you were inexplicably murdered it was Ashfreckle

imagine being a mass murderer named ashfreckle. tbh take the scourge route and change ur name at this point, who is gonna be scared of someone named ashfreckle??? tell their kits at night to watch out for the big bad ashfreckle…

[catgirlkirigiri]

would you mind explaining beamstar and oddstrike's story bc they seem so interesting....

YES I WOULD LOVE TO this is gonna get so long I’m sorry <3 I’m putting it under a read more for the sake of everyone’s dashboards

So. RippleClan started out very normal, 10 founders a fair amount of warriors it was going fine. That is until Ripplestar died 6 moons into the Clan’s existence - just in time for their apprentice Beampaw to get her warrior name, Beamstep (after Ripplestar’s warrior name, Ripplestep). Sparkstar, the second leader, didn’t last too long either, dying only 9 moons later. Leestar, the next leader, only lasted 4. By that point Beamstep was one of I believe three remaining founders, along with the founding medic who would die a moon later and one other remaining warrior. Beamstar then became the Clan’s fourth leader.

Within 30 moons of RippleClan’s existence, Beamstar could only watch as her Clanmates slowly died off, in the end leaving only her and Oddstrike, the child of a loner who’d joined with their father and brother. Beamstar and Oddstrike had never really gotten along, but being the only cats remaining in the Clan, attempted to set aside their differences to keep RippleClan alive. Oddstrike’s death loop began few moons into this bitter era of the Clan.

The first time Oddstrike would experience a loop was after Beamstar died, leaving them alone to become the leader and sole survivor of RippleClan. In the following moon, they were taken out by enemy Clans until they finally died for good… only to wake up alive again, the day Beamstar had died. This was the only loop in which Oddstrike was taken back further than the morning of their death. (From a gameplay perspective I was just resetting so the Clan wasn’t toast - some friends I told about this as it happened thought the death loop approach would be funny, so it became canon.) Over the course of RippleClan’s empty moons and slow repopulation, Oddstrike died a total of 59 times before finally breaking the loop when they died peacefully of old age at 193 moons. But now we’re getting ahead of ourselves!

After nearly 20 moons of bickering, including a divorce or two, Beamstar and Oddstrike welcomed their first litter of kits: Poppykit, Cloverkit, and Pouncekit. There was a war declared a bit after these three were born but it’s fine don’t even worry about a Clan declaring war on a divorced couple and their infant children. Beamstar and Oddstrike broke up practically every third moon, but always ended up getting back together. (Their hate and romantic love for each other are both maxed out.) This first trio of kits became Poppyeyes, the new medic, Cloverpad, and Pouncepetal. Just a few moons after they earned their full names, their younger siblings were born - Wheatkit, Antlerkit, and Rosekit, soon to be Wheatfur, Antlertuft, and Roseacorn. These would be the only kits the pair had together, and no, having children did Not help the divorce cycle.

Between those litters, the first of many outsiders joined: Stumpywhisker, the retired young adult leader of the Clan that RippleClan went to war with. Stumpywhisker would eventually become Cloverpad’s mate, and they wound up having 15 kits but this isn’t about them <3 most of what happened in the coming moons began to revolve more around the oddbeam kits than the divorced guys themselves as RippleClan regrew, with more outsiders joining, allowing the Clan to prosper as the younger cats fell in love and invited loners and kittypets alike to stay. Oddstrike did of course continue their horrible death loop, dying for their Clanmates several times (namely their grandkits Ravenfall and Hornetstrike, whom they died for multiple times each) and the divorce cycle raged on. Beamstar and Oddstrike often hated even the thought of each other, thinking about how they wouldn’t miss the other when they died, yet they couldn’t keep themselves away from the only love they’d ever had.

Somewhere along the line that I don’t exactly remember the timing of, Wheatfur and Antlertuft both died, the whole Clan grieving the cats that to most were a brother, an uncle, or a son. Oddstrike also lost their left leg to a snare and their tail to a dog. (Poppyeyes held funerals for his dad’s amputated limbs which I found very sweet.) Oddstrike remained Beamstar’s deputy for nearly her whole leadership, though they finally retired a couple moons before the end of the dark era the pair led RippleClan out of, leaving the role to their daughter Cloverpad.

After over 100 moons that felt like an eternity (probably because Oddstrike kept dying and making me reset lmao) Beamstar’s lives dwindled, and she finally died of old age surrounded by the Clan she’d worked so hard to save. Beamstar spent 125 of the 164 moons she lived as leader, and probably half of those were spent divorcing Oddstrike, who outlived her by 44 moons. I’d like to think they’re still getting married and divorced all the time up in StarClan now.

But yeah that’s basically it! A beautiful toxic cycle of marriage and divorce in the midst of a dying Clan they were both so desperate to bring back from the brink of extinction. It’s been 300 moons in RippleClan since Beamstar died, and while they’re still a pretty small Clan, they continue to stay alive. The current leader is Beamstar and Oddstrike’s great granddaughter.

a family from one of my clangen clans! this one is legacyclan, aka mothclan! deerbranch ( a long furred dark cream and grey calico she-cat) she is a compassionate molly and an excellent speaker. she is the main caretaker of kits. when she and flowerweb had their kits together, her mate went missing under mysterious circumstances. deerbranch, however, never gave up on flowerweb, believing that starclan will guide her mate home. flowerweb (a long furred light brown smoke she-cat, trans) deerbranch's mate. she is a loving molly who excels at hunting. a moon after antlerkit, willowkit, and olivekit were born, she was abducted by twolegs. she was taken to a twoleg nest that contained numerous other cats from out of the clans. during a storm, a lightning bolt struck the nest, and the containers burst open. the cats scrambled to escape, and flowerweb made her escape with Mac, who decided that clan life was not for them when flowerweb asked if they wanted to join mothclan. DB + FW kits: antlerbranch (a long furred ginger ticked tabby molly) apprenticed to blackpebble, antlerbranch honors her ma by taking her suffix. flowerweb was still lost when she earned her name. antlerbranch was a sick kit for most of her kithood, pulling through just in time to be named an apprentice. she was named a warrior earlier than most, and was honored for her carefulness and her efficiency. she died in kitbirth, but her kits, coniferkit, russetkit, and sparrowkit were born healthy. willowstorm (a short furred ticked tabby molly) apprenticed to greenhope, willowstorm was named for her integrity. she is the only one of her siblings to have a mate, breezefade. flowerweb was still gone by the point she earned her name olivenight (a long furred grey and white tom) apprenticed to umberstar, he was the only who found his mom while on a patrol. olivenight was named for his creativity, and flowerweb was present for his ceremony.

Deaths

Rumors reach your Clan that the runaway Abyssfang died recently

Rosyheart died from a claw-wound

Inkykit died of kittencough

Snipgorse and Blotchjay grieve but are not stricken

Antlerkit died of greencough

Racconrock and Runningleaf grieve but are not stricken

So much grief and death has taken its toll, Ebonyeye and Kestreldapple are particularly shaken by it

Misc

Oriolekit falls into a river but is saved by Cloudbeam

Health

Kestreldapple hopes for a small litter and moves into the nursery Whitecough has spread around the camp. Mottlekit, Dartkit, highstriple, Gentlesmoke, midgekit, Crouchdusk, leapsummit, Moss, Snipgorse, Fleckkit, Firekit, Mulberrydust, Crowdawn, Mistkit, Pigeondart, Boobearbubble, Pondpaw, and Blossommane have been infected Cragcaw's running nose is gone Hopcinder's torn pelt healed Airpaw no longer has fleas Mako's infection abated Guppykit's bruises are gone

Patrols

The patrol finds a river that must be corssed to check the border. After some consideration the patrol finds a place to cross. AS they reach about halfway, a strong rush of water crashes over them. The current pulls them from safety and chirns them with no mercy. A mountain river is no place for a cat to be, and despite their best efforts, the cold water wins a battle that was over before it started

Hopcinder, Swiftrumble, and Coldgale died

This took so long to do.

I forgot the 'g' in leg, oh my god! I also don't really that drawing of Lightclaw in the third picture.

Also, the Clan's first death, I really liked Lightclaw.

Moon 44-Leaf-fall

The Clan seems unable to escape tragedy.  Stormrush (56), after just giving birth to her newborn litter, has passed away.  The combined injuries from the hawk and the stress of giving birth proved too much for her.  Shadestar (139) wails when she sees the body of Stormrush, still and cold in the clearing.  She sits vigil that night as grief fills her heart.  She tosses and turns, finding it difficult to sleep at night when she lingers too long on Stormrush’s last moments.  She can only hope that Stormrush knew just how loved she was and pray she’s at peace.  Brightfalcon (87)  is devastated by the loss of her mate and her voice cracks with grief as she talks about the time she had with Stormrush.  She is eager to get up and busy herself the next day, refusing to sit still for even a moment lest her thoughts begin to linger on Stormrush’s death.  She busies herself with caring for her kits and the Clan.  Who just can’t seem to stop getting injured.  Rindlefish (45) was hurt by a hawk when she saved Stonefreckle (27).  It’ll be nice when Rosemarykit (1) can be apprenticed and help out.  Meanwhile, Shardfrost (23) is turning to comfort outside the Clan and was caught touching noses with a rogue.  Scandalous!  Yuccawillow (23) is adjusting to being deputy and is proud that she finally made it there.  Meanwhile, Chervilcry (23) has been getting closer to Stonefreckle.  She would give anything to make his dreams come true.  Antlerkit (1) and Rosemarykit aren’t quite sure where their mom went.  Antlerkit seems to understand that she’s gone forever, but Rosemarykit just wants to play.  So, Antlerkit keeps checking in on her and making sure she’s alright.
