#Thornspots

[magpieclan]

Moon 0! Part 1 of 2

More LORE

Thornspots (bottom left on last panel) is med cat but has feathers instead of herbs or anything because, due to Magpieclan's roots as followers of the magpie's, he has a closer connection to his own ancestors and isn't able to connect with Starclan at all, which is why Loachpaw can show himself to Midgestar and not Thornspots. The clans view Thornspots as a healer and not a medicine cat, because that would imply a connection to Starclan since that's only a clan term.

Still testing the layout/style but I don't think I'll be drawing on my laptop anymore, takes so much time compared to my phone lol

Thanks to @fallenclan, @songclangen, @poppyclangen, @cricketclan, @silkclan, @coyoteclan, @antlerclan, and @wyrm-clangen for inspiring me! (long list ik but I love all these silly clans sm)

I love the frames of Loachpaw and Midgestar sm Loachpaw waited over 50 moons for them to arrive, over 7 times the time he was alive and now the only person who can see him is Midge and he's so excited to be their guide. Loachpaw appears far more to Midgestar than a normal Starclan cat would, just so he can chat and hang out

Like, yeah, I know you just did one of these and I don't want to overburden you, but do you have any suffixes for a Thorn- prefix? The canon already took Thornclaw and I'm struggling.

Moon 0 pt 2!

TW: mentions of animal death

Meep!

Out of the two other story pieces already made for Magpieclan, I like this the best :) From now on, this'll be the style/layout of posts.

Also more lore for Magpieclan! The first page states that "tradition tells Midgestar to turn them to another group." The reason for this is that as the Followers of the Magpies, they would only accept blue, black (also gray too), and white furred cats because pelt color determined the spiritual connection they had to the magpies. It's not that they held anything against other pelt colors, as they would help and heal any in need but would politely refuse to admit them to their group, it's just that no other pelt color is able to connect w/ the magpies and gain their magpie feathers after death. Although taboo, rarely other pelt colored cats would be admitted to join the Followers of the Magpies. However, their spirits, after death, would be unable to become a magpie and forced to wander. (The magpies can't control this and the same goes for kittens borne from Followers of Magpies who have other fur colors :( sad)

The reason the magpies send the sign of the flock flying with the sparrows is to show that Magpieclan will need to adapt and change from their old traditions and beliefs if they are to thrive, succeed, and ally with the other clans.

I love the drawing of Faith and Bumble sm :( Bumble was too young to remember his mother but Faith remembers very clearly the day they lost her. However, they both grieve her loss.

Moon 3

Don't ask why this took so long, I don't know. (but it's Limedew's first appearance lmao)

First look at the Magpie's Nest! It's a ring of trees where the clans buried Loachpaw after they searched and discovered his body :( The clan and the magpies chose to honor him.

also MIDGE KITS!!!

I love them ❤️

Midgestar's Misfortune - 1

Do you miss her?

Text under the cut bc it's a lil hard to read in places!

Page 1

Midge: "Marsh! Did you hear? The Magpies are taking us to our home. We'll finally have a home, Marsh! We'll finally be safe. We'll have someplace to raise a family. A home."

Marsh: "I don't want a home."

Page 2

Midge: "I... what...?"

Marsh: I've been a magpie follower my whole life! This isn't something I can just abandon, Midge. Not like you."

Midge: "I'm not abandoning the magpies or the followers, Marsh. Finding a home, it's what they want. It's what we want."

Marsh: "No. Not me. I don't want this. I will follow you to your home, but I won't stay.

Welcome to Magpieclan!

FINALLY made my own Clangen after being obsessed with everyone elses lol

Hi! I'm Bluejay.

Anyways, welcome to Magpieclan! They're an extremely new clan that stem from a long line of loners who lived in a group called The Magpies. They, obviously, worshipped magpies, and much like how when clan cats die and go to Starclan, when Magpie cats die they become a magpie, which enables them to guide their descendants even after death. However, as the world around The Magpie's grows increasingly unsafe and dangerous, the magpie's chose Thorn as their prophet and led him to the clans, telling them to make a home and protect their future.

Now that they've settled, they find it difficult to adjust. Not only will they have to start accepting other colored cats, as they were usually comprised of only black, blue, and white cats, as per the colors of a magpie, (they would offer other cats help regardless but they wouldn't be able to stay for long, since the Magpie's constantly moved around), but they also have to struggle with the fact that no future generations of Magpieclan will become magpie's. As the second that Magpieclan was accepted by Starclan, the previous magpie's were barred from entrance, and any living cat who died would not be able to gain their feathers. Now the magpies live lonely lives in the sky, unable to reach the stars of their children.

Character descriptions under the cut!

Midgestar, the leader chosen by Magpieclan's feathered ancestors. His paw was burned by a twoleg's fire as a young kit, another one of the dangers that caused Magpieclan to settle. Unlike other leaders, Midgestar is the closest connection to Starclan that Magpieclan has, despite not being the medicine cat. This is because Thornspots spiritual connection is tied to the magpies, which makes it increasingly complicated for him to reach Starclan.

Hayember was chosen by Magpieclan to be their deputy. As the only she-cat in the group of clan founders, she feels constantly anxious about proving herself. Not only that, but she has yet to completely understand what her role means. Additionally, she struggles with the fear that she will be alone when she dies. All of her family are magpies, and she had always thought she'd reunite with them after death, but now that's no longer the case. Regardless, she is loyal to her clan.

Thornspots is the chosen messenger for the magpies. Twice a moon he visits their nesting grounds, a clearing not too far from the edge of Magpieclan territory. It was Thornspots that led them to their new home. Regardless of this feat, he struggles with the fact that he may never be able to reach Starclan until the day he dies, and that sets him apart from all the other medicine cats.

Limedew is the last of the true clan founders. He truly struggles with adjusting his traditions and beliefs, but regardless believes that the magpie's will do what is best for their children, him and the clan included, so he tries to be open-minded. Like the rest of Magpieclan, he fears for what comes after death. Midgestar speaks of a star-filled territory in the sky where the clan will go after death, but nothing will fill the hole of being seperated from his family for eternity.

The first two cats to join Magpieclan were a young tom and his little brother. Midgestar, Hayember, and Thornspots found the two when scouting their new territory. Faithpaw, Faith at the time, was sheltering his little brother, Bumble, with tears falling down his face as he recounted the story, through his sobbing, of his mother being hit by a car. Midgestar, although hesitant, was about to send the two to another clan, per The Magpie's tradition of only accepting black, blue, and white cats, when Thornspots demands he stops. The medicine cat directed his attention to a flock of magpies passing by, and with them were two brown sparrows. Thus, Midgestar happily accepted Faithpaw and Bumblekit into their clan, naming Faithpaw as his own apprentice.

Lastly, a couple days after Faithpaw and Bumblekit where found, Thornspots discovered a young tomkit on the edge of their territory. Not wanting to abandon him, Thornspots waited by his side for a parent or guardian to arrive and claim him. But, as the sun set, he realizes no one was coming and took Podkit back to Magpieclan.

Moon 2 :D It's a short one

I think I'm so funny sometimes

This is normally out of character for both Thornspots and Hayember, but Thorn is frustrated at his lack of connection to Starclan and Hay is frustrated at the fact that she is no longer certain in her beliefs of the afterlife, with how Starclan is such a new force that she is unfamiliar with, and because Thorn isn't taking her seriously.

They both regret what they said and eventually apologize to each other (it takes like five minutes for the realization to hit lol) Hay apologizes for her hurtful words and comments that Thorn has other important roles, like being the bridge between the clan and the magpies, and Thorn talks with her about her dream and Starclan. Also, they've been friends for a long while, with Midge, Hay, and Thorn all growing up as Followers of the magpies.

Fun fact! Magpieclan and their ancestors have a long held tradition that prevents them from hunting, hurting, or killing birds. However, magpie feathers are given as gifts to friends and loved ones and are a symbol of love, friendship, and appreciation. The magpies themselves will sometimes gift living cats with their feathers, or a living cat with gather already shed feathers, but they will never forcefully take the feathers from a magpie.

psst! If you have any, please send asks! I would love to respond to questions about/for characters and world building!

Moon 1, finally!

Fun fact! Because Loachpaw was the only cat in Magpieclan's section of Starclan, he was the only one who gave Midgestar his lives, which took a lot of energy from Loachpaw's spirit. Because of this, he disappeared for a little over a moon and a half and ended up reappearing the night before Faithpelt's ceremony! Midge was so happy to see him, and the same went for Loach! They spent almost the whole night talking about and practicing for the ceremony! (and Midge still fumbled lmao)

Fun fact 2! Because Midgestar is such a new leader, he accidentally picked the most basic name for Faith and was already set on the name before Loach appeared to help.

The dream sequence is also meant to show that Loachpaw is trying to contact Thornspots, but he physically cannot because of Thorns connection to the magpies, there's a spiritual barrier keeping Thorn from seeing and hearing Loach.

New Faithpelt reference!
