so many cats oh god oh jesus help. um little bit of info of each character under read-more sjdfhds

everybody, except for hiddenstep + skystar, are a part of a clan called bigclan, which is technically comprised of two separate clans: hawkclan and doveclan. however, they share the same territory and are practically clanmates, so hence the singular name thing. they do have their respective cultures and their own separate camps though

jaggedstar (she/her) - leader of doveclan. she had leadership suddenly thrust upon her as a very young warrior, so she’s kind of super stressed all the time. her deputy, prickleface, helps her as best as he can, as well as her adoptive daughter, batshade

birdfeather (she/her) - she’s hawkstar’s grandkid and is just generally kind of a chill dude. she’s also one of my oldest ocs <3 yknow hence the uncreative name. ive been considering calling her sparrowfall but im too attached so she probably just goes by both

starlinghop (he/him) - curious energetic little guy. he really looks up to birdfeather as a warrior. otherwise i don’t rlly have much info for him sdjfhsdjfs

hiddenstep (she/her) - a former windclan member. her mother, skystar, had lost many cats she cared for, so she cursed starclan to never take away her one living kit. it does end up being an actual curse though, and hiddenstep became psuedo-immortal - essentially, while she can technically still die, starclan can’t find her to guide her spirit to the afterlife, so she just goes back into her body, all wounds healed. she’s chronologically several decades old.

skystar (she/her) - former windclan leader, but she dead now. she’s reunited with her family and friends, but still searches desperately, guiltily, for her daughter

batshade (she/her) - she used to be a loner, and lived in the cavern where bigclan goes to share tongues with starclan. she’d lost her parents at a very young age, and was taken care of by the bats that lived in the cavern. after a few moons, jaggedstar found her on her journey to receive her nine lives and took her in, naming her batpaw. she has a crush on birdfeather :>

hawkstar (he/him) - founder of hawkclan, a member of starclan, and dovestar’s mate. he’s all big and burly and isn’t too good around kits, but he tries his best.

dovestar (he/him) - founder of doveclan and jaggedstar’s predecessor. he’s much sweeter and less fight-y than hawkstar, but can and will still kick butt. he joined starclan a few moons after hawkstar died, very soon after appointing jaggedstar - then jaggedstripe - as deputy.

messing around with a new character idea. (note that im ignoring the fact that she-cats in positions of power arent supposed to have kits cause its stupid lol)

anyway this is hiddenstep, and she’s a living ghost.

continued under read-more

i’m not really sure which clan she’s in, im thinking windclan? her mother is skypath, the medicine cat. so basically, decades before firestar first joined thunderclan, skypath had, over the course of her life, lost nearly everyone whom she cared for: her parents, her siblings, close friends, mate, the other kits in hiddenstep’s litter. as such, when hiddenstep was born and her littermates had died, skypath cursed starclan and vowed that they shall never have her last living loved one.

when hiddenstep was a young apprentice, she was hit by a monster and killed on impact. however, as a spirit, she couldn’t leave her body, so she couldn’t do anything except wait next to it and be guided to starclan. no one came for her. eventually, after a long while, she returned to her body and, suddenly, woke up. not good as new, she was battered and bruised with a couple broken bones, but the fatal injuries which had killed her had completely healed. she was alive again. after the incident, she was too shaken to tell anyone, even skypath.

hiddenstep is technically immortal, although not invulnerable, evidently; she can still be hurt and killed. her mother had inadvertently cursed her so that no starclan cat could find hiddenstep, whether she was dead or alive. she could still grow old and die from old age, but when she returns to her body, it ages back several moons, so she isn’t on a loop of constant death from old age; poison is cured, crushed organs repaired. even committing suicide doesn’t break the curse.

eventually, almost unaffected by the passage of time, hiddenstep could only watch as everyone she knows eventually moves on and dies, including her mom skypath. heartbroken and horrified, hiddenstep runs away from the clans and lives on her own. no one from starclan can contact her and guide her to silverpelt. skypath, reunited with the rest of her family, tried, over and over, to get to her daughter, but it was in vain. even she couldn’t find hiddenstep.

to this day, hiddenstep still travels the woods, following the clans’ path, from the forest through the mountains to the lake, too grief-stricken to return but too scared to leave. hoping that, one day, she can find a way to break this curse and finally join her family and friends in starclan...

what?

[monotone-artist]

backstory doodles. decided to change skypath from medicine cat to leader so shes skystar now

in the first pic is one of the cats she loved dead (not sure if mate or sibling or what), second one is skystar basically telling starclan to piss off and never take her kit away from her, which basically leads to hiddenkit/hiddenstep’s whole pseudo-immortality thing

heres a wip for a project im working on!! + the ref for my baby boy!!

[riverkit]

Here's a dark, low quality sneak peak looking at the "king" poster I'm making! You can't really see any of the lighting/shading on hiddenstep, but whatever!

[riverkit]

sorry to be heavy but heavy is the cost,

heavy is the cost

here's a drawing of feralstar I did over the weekend! It's supposed to mimic those Victorian ages oil paintings that look sinister, and in shows it always turns out to be the "previous owner" who now "haunts the place"

along with just the image, I included one of my favorite edits I made of my stinky son

[riverkit]

Here's uuh a little doodle of birchstar, hiddenstep's dead adoptive nb dad!!

[monotone-artist]

skypath, hiddenstep’s mom. windclan medicine cat

she’s very tired and stressed and has had a really bad sucky life, losing basically everyone she’d been close to except for her daughter, so she’s pulled out big chunks of her own fur. the scars on her back legs are unrelated to that though
