"Aftermath"

Bit of a shorter issue, but I wanted to mix it up with a different format. Let's take a second to process and grieve.

The flowers on the cover are mallow (Mallowstar), cypress (Cypressfoot), and asphodels (Rainhaze).

As a reminder, I've begun offering early previews of the next issue on my Patreon, under the $5+ tiers. Issue 41 will be posting there early next week.

@barrenclan hi again

[wetwaspwednesday]

Shoutout to Raz 'The Horrors' Merry for making me feel genuine anguish over warrior cats for the first time since like middle school !!!

Blood / Gore ⚠️

I took this quiz as if I were Pinepaw, but I think I got Daffodilpaw instead!

if tumblr loves anything, it's bitches who are doomed by the narrative. in this uquiz, find out what role are you in the tragic play?

"Our Lasting Legacy"

Finally, our apprentices who were once so small have grown into their warrior names! I hope you give Redstar, Pinewing, Cormorantleaf, Daffodilcloud, and Asphodelshine a very hearty welcome. I won't be changing the tags of any of the characters, though, just to preserve continuity.

I've mentioned it before, and it should already be abundantly clear in the comic, but leaders in this comic do not have nine lives. The leader title and oath is purely ceremonial.

This is the second to last issue of PATFW! However, I've been very busy and haven't gotten much time to work on the last one, so it'll likely be a longer than usual time until it comes out. I will be posting it earlier on my Patreon once it's done, but I don't have a good idea of when that will be yet. Please have patience. I want to wrap this story up right.

"The Death of BarrenClan: Part Five"

And with that, the "Death of BarrenClan" arc comes to an end! Thank you all for reading along and for the wonderful response to each issue.

The comic is not over yet; there are four issues left, plus a series of epilogues, where our cast will have to mourn their losses, pick up the pieces of their lives, and figure out what to do next.

For the last few issues of the comic, I've also decided to offer an early release of the next issue on my Patreon at the $5 and above tier. It'll post in a few days, and if there's continuing interest in this, I'll do the same for the last issues after the preceding one is publicly released.

Here's the link to my Patreon.

Artfight attack of Daffodilpaw for @barrenclan ! Best girl!

[frosted-woods]

woah!!!!! finally done,,, a large chunk of fanart for @barrenclan's comic! i wanted to start doing digital again and draw some kitties,, so. that's what it resulted in. anyway the story is great!? it had me soo involved in all of the characters, i had to hold myself back from drawing more (ok but really, these were so fun to do). 10/10 definitely worth your time.

characters in order:

pinepaw | asphodelpaw | daffodilpaw

cormorantpaw | egrettail | cootstorm

rainhaze | slugpelt | blacknose

beeface | plumstripe | redpelt

bonus! nightberry & cypressfoot

[barrenclan]

AHHH I'm in love with this!! This song is SO perfect for her, and I love all the beautiful shading used in it! Eurhythmics is such a wonderful choice for a PMV :] excellent work!!

soo, have you guys read Razmerry's Pinepaw and the forgotten world?

i was randomly struck with inspiration and motivation to work on this, and i'm glad fot it! i honestly just picture this song as Slugpelt and Cashew, buuuut the lines "here comes the rain again, raining on my head like a tragedy, tearing me apart like a new emotion" was just to perfect for the slug rain confrontation in the newest issue. as a result, Rainhaze kinda took over the middle chunk of the pmv lmao

this was my first proper attempt at doing a pmv with tweening, so hopefully it doesn't look too wonky. it was pretty fun actually! i'm definitely proud of some of the shots :]

anyway, shout out to Slugpelt. tragic moms gotta be one of my favorite types of characters (Graypool, Dawnpelt, and Ivypool being some of my fav wc characters lol)

@barrenclan

as a bonus, have some silly thumbnail doodles:

Eye of the Storm

Prologue

A dark cat raced across the forest floor, paws pounding against the moist earth. Stopping to sniff the air, the cat’s nose convulsed in disgust. A rotten smell engulfed its nostrils.

The dark grey feline, Rookpaw, begrudgingly followed the scent. He had been searching for his best friend, Daffodilpaw, who had gone missing a few days prior after leaving on a solo hunting mission. The smell was getting more pungent now, and Rookpaw could barely breathe. Pushing past a thick clump of bracken, Rookpaw froze. Laying in the dank clearing, below a canopy, was a horrific sight.

Atop a puddle of crimson blood laid Daffodilpaw’s body, with a large gash on her throat encrusted with dried ichor. the cream-furred apprentice’s underbelly was stained red with the scarlet fluid that had been oozing from the deep wound, for seeming a long time.

Staring at the corpse for what felt like moons, Rookpaw slowly backed away. Suddenly, he heard a twig snap behind him. Whipping his head around, he just barely saw a flash of pale grey fur flying at him. He felt a sharp pang of pain in his neck.

Then it all went black.

WOAH

Typing BarrenClan Cats in OPS

i'm rereading @barrenclan so I thot this might be fun :P

Right now, I'm only on chapter 15/16 I think? But I think I have enough info (plus prior knowledge) to do a quick typing on the slug sibs

Pinepaw: Pinepaw is definitely a gatherer, though I don't know if I'd say he's overdoing chaos...he doesn't have a need for new things as much as he has a need for individuality.

This might not SEEM like the case since he's not an individualist per say, but when reading the comic you can tell he goes away from the tribe and focuses on his wants, he is looking for answers not FOR the tribe but purely because he wants to know.

This can be seen in many scenarios, but mainly in him wanting to leave the group. Someone who's tribe over self and an organizer would prefer to stick to traditions, like Cootstorm, they would hear the cries of the past barrenclan warriors and want to stay, because that is what the tribe and tradition wants.

This leads me to either INTP or INFP, though I think he's more of an INFP. He doesn't care as much about efficiency, even if he is logical he prefers to think about his values

Also idk if it's necessary to say ne>se he's clearly intuitive, moreso coming to as many conclusions as possible instead of paying close attention to the surroundings

ALSO Consume>Sleep>Blast>Play is my best guess but I'm not too sure

Examples of INFPs:

Shinji Ikara from NGE

Belle (Beauty and the Beast)

Spider-Man/Peter Parker (Marvel Comics)

As for other typologies, these are just possibilities:

6w7 (4w5 is also a possibility!)

694

RCUAI or SLUAI

ELFV

Phlegmatic-Sanguine or Phlegmatic [Dominant]

Neutral Good (or neutral moral if we're doing 5x5)

Heir of Doom (Prospit)

NEXT Daffodilpaw ! One of my favorites...first off she is DEFINITELY tribe>self and is overdoing tribe...this is not even a question at this point. She focuses too much on others, deciding her only worth is what she can contribute.

Though I think, instead of being blast, she's mainly a play function, meaning she's a jumper!

Now the hard part is figuring out whether she uses ne or se, though I'm gonna go with ne...she's always thinking of possibilities to make the clan a better place, so her ne assists her fe

This leaves ESFJ! Play>Blast>Consume>Sleep :3

Examples of ESFJs:

Spongebob SquarePants

Ochako Uraraka from BNHA

Katara from Avatar

Other typologies:

2w1

297

SLOAN

EFVL

Sanguine-Melancholic or Sanguine [Dominant]

Lawful Good (or Lawful Moral)

Page of Heart (Prospit)

And finally!!! Asphodelpaw :3 weirdly enough, she's also tribe>self, but unlike her sister she is blast and a te user, she doesn't care about values she wants things to work efficiently

Fe is definitely her main function, the entire story she's battling with herself over gaining approval with her mentor, meaning she neglects a cay like Pinepaw who is more individualistic and doesn't really want to partake in tribe beliefs. She definitely gets healthier as the story goes on, but she's a good example of a tribe savior being selfish.

As for whether she uses si or ni....I'm gonna go with ni, she isn't tied to si but there also isn't much showing her ni so I skipped over to the third function and (imo) she's def se>ne so. Ni it is!

so she's ENTJ ! Blast>Sleep>Consume>Play

Examples of ENTJs:

Katsuki Bakugo from BNHA

Asuka Langley Soryu from NGE

Light Yagami from Death Note

Other Typologies:

3w2

386

SCUEI

VFEL

Choleric-Melancholic

Chaotic Neutral (or Rebel Neutral)

Maid of Blood (Derse) Mainly a guess cuz idrk...

[barrenclan]

The hopeful expression Rainhaze has on his face, staring away from Slugpelt, unclear whether he's about to attack or embrace her, the halo around her head, the siblings' paws vs Ranger's - so much good symbolism in this, I love it!

One more art fight attack for the day on @barrenclan :] had a lotta fun drawin these kitty cats
