UMBRA COLONY (RAIN COLONY) INFO

RELATIONS

The Family: Neutral Tide: Hostile Summit: Hostile

FOUNDER

Delta

CURRENT LEADER

Ripple Cloud (Formerly Ripplecall) Hemlock

HISTORY

Delta was a denizen of the original colony that fled the city. She and a select few of her followers retreated to the rainforest and created a home among the dense foliage. She even cultivated a lost language between the “big cats” who already resided in the rainforest. Legend says she had the power to call forth rain whenever the colony needed it most. Many cats once believed that cats who had passed on brought forth clouds when she cried out to them at the highest point in the rainforest.

CURRENT HISTORY

(Took place 1 year ago from current timeline)

In a cruel twist of fate this colony was taken over by a huge black jaguar named Hemlock after he murdered their leader in cold blood along with countless others. The broken remains of the colony were renamed Umbra in honor of his own black pelt. A lot of history and stories of the original Rain Colony have been lost due to the senseless slaughter of the elderly cats in the colony. Any cat that speaks of Rain Colony, including mentioning the past leader by name, is brutally punished or killed.

TERRITORY

The Roaring Falls & The Storm Pool A waterfall located deep in the rainforest whose flow entirely depends on the amount of rainfall, thus why the pool in which the water cascades into is called the Storm Pool which is always at its highest during the rainy season. The Mother Tree/Umbra Camp A huge tree made up of multiple trees. This is the colony’s main base and where the dams and kittens reside as they cannot sleep in their nests among the treetops. The Wetlands A swampy area near the Storm Pool. The Dividing River A huge river that comes down from the mountains running through almost all the colony territories.

PREY

Small snakes, lizards, & turtles

Certain types of frog

Tropical birds

Smaller species of monkeys

PREDATORS

Large snakes

Larger bird species

Larger monkeys & apes

Jaguars & other big cats

TRADITIONS

(Any Rain Colony traditions were done away with or lost. Making way for new traditions enforced by Hemlock.) Battle Royale A “chance” that Hemlock gives to all adult cats that wish to have their rank changed. Seen as “an opportunity” for pawns to advance in rank to either a favorite, scavenger, or a gladiator (granted they excel in battle) The Assortment When runts are old enough to begin learning Hemlock assigns them a rank and he leaves the responsibility of teaching to the current favorites, pawns, scavengers, and gladiators. Claws-Out Training All fighting training is done with unsheathed claws regardless of how young or old a cat is. “A real opponent will not hide their claws for you.”

Okay, I'm joining your trend, guys, it's too cool)

Lactarius Deliciosus or Saffron Milkcup - my most favourite mushroom🧡

Beautiful, tasty, crunchy - this is what lizards think about when they see Saffron. No one knows exactly what kind of slugcat he is, but for some reason he attracts more predators than any other ones. Bad for him on one hand, but good for everyone else on the other. That’s why he is always ready to take the hit and lead the danger as far away from colony as possible. Even if it means he might need to be saved afterwards😅

He didn’t have any sort of special abilities or poisons like many other slugshrooms. So he can only rely on his strength and agility. And after years of training, he really became a good guard, although his work still sometimes leaves scars on his body

Saffron also loves to cook and even has his own secret recipes. With secret ingredient… Very special ingredient…

Yeah, he uses his milk sweat for cooking. It gives dishes a richer, sweet and spicy flavor and, as he believes, makes the dishes much tastier. But, for some reason, other slugcats didn't really appreciate his idea, and now he is not allowed to cook for everyone

However, Saffron continues to cook for himself and create new recipes. In a portable pot made from a snail shell, he always carries some of his signature soup, which he is ready to share with tired and lost travelers)))

And a lot of these will be platonic! But some will be romantic as well 𓍢ִ໋🌷͙֒✧˚ ༘ ⋆｡˚♡

I had a lot of fun making this mural of my ancient oc's! This is the High Council of APL's ancient colony

Ruble and Tar Across Countless Weaves. A Humid Breeze, Seven Distant Valleys. Three Craned Stones, Keen Ores

[fandomnerd9602]

Rain: you enlisted with the Colonial Marines?

Y/N: yep. And the stipulation is that I can take my spouse off world with me, we could settle on any planet.

Rain: but we’re not—

Y/N holds up a simple ring…

Y/N: took me four months worth of squirreling away some money. (Winks)

Rain: (giggles) yes!

[paradoxbeta]

theres two types of slugcat parents

[thunder-opossum]

Today I had to clean a bunch of red thread fungi off my dogs... More than eight hours of work later I have this. ✨ inspiration ✨

Would type details but I'm actually shaking bc I'm so hungry... need food

Slugcats put in this drawing were A: under the "scugshroom colony" tag, B: had fully colored refs

I tried to keep it accurate to sizing and character personality, so I hope this can bring the colony to life a bit more :3

[spotsupstuff]

even more ocs except this time they are only joke (crows 'n pan) or bg characters. i'll prolly do quick designs for the rest of the Children of Eo group at some point too tbh 🤔

[t00nyah]

so...here's my part for scugshroom colony because i think it's a very fun designing challenge

@mushroominaforest i hope you won't bite me for this

THOSE are my small notes i made to simplify information i saw as important. fungi i chose are lion's mane(Hericium erinaceus) and blood tooth(Hydnellum peckii), they looked cool and i went okay. okay.

this is the Empath, or Pompom. (she/he/they/it) she's VERY big and VERY fluffy. she has a very sweet and caring personality, while holding strange fascination with cycle of death and rebirth and, weirdly enough, interest in the Rot, despite being as terrified of it as others. as his name suggests he's very empathetic and is usually first to help, he's that one responsible adult who helps kids who are afraid of doctors face their fears (haha not that im that kid...). (and yes i am implying that he frequently helps slugcats figure out when they need help and how to get it. trust me that sentence makes sense. actually, read this as 'he's basically like calypso from bluey', that's the vibe.)

she's also secretly a gourmenot child but no-one's supposed to know that /hj

this...is...strawberry and cream duo...(get it...bc strawberries and cream...)

slugcat is the Colorist, or Cream. (she/they/it) they are not yet past their puphood, so they're small (but they won't grow much because ummm i decided so). their natural appearance tends to scare some off, especially their small blood-looking spot on their lower jaw, which gives them a vampire look. she's very bitter and can come off as snappy, but it's mostly because she's been rather lonely most of her life! she found a companion in Strawberry, or the Courageous One. (he/it) Colorist is the one who patched up his wound from another lizard, and the one who made his cape as a sign of friendship. they formed a rather symbiotic relationship in which they, both seen as weaklings or outcasts in their homeland, help each other be stronger.

they're basically double trouble lol

the Colorist has incredible interest in fabric and likes making useful and fashionable items like bags or simple scarfs. they usually tend to isolate themself from others but it doesn't mean they don't see themself as a part of a collective, they're just used to not being well-liked. i can see Strawberry trying to make her interact with others more while she's just being all grumpy but still goes along with it haha.

this was a lot of fun i love thinking about how to convert facts into character traits soooooo yeah that was very fun :)

Faith is a dangerous line of work for beings of rationality. Why did they give us the sentience to comprehend it?

The iterators belonging to Solstice are always in constant exposure to paramount religious practices. If they are not strong willed it is easy to slip beneath the cracks and drown in the delusion. It is a miracle Omni hasn't gone under themselves.

I hate how the caption looks but eh

My scugshrooms for @mushroominaforest mushroom slugcat colony!

They two are sisters called rainbow and chanterelle! Based of the rainbow chanterelle mushroom! Rainbow is an exceptional cook, and she can make a delicious meal out of anything. Her younger sister chanterelle mostly provides the ingredients. These two used to have a bigger family, about 7 of them, but they were all slaughtered by vultures. They are both very good at navigating thier surroundings.

I mostly got all the info about these mushrooms from this post I only looked up a few additional things

[riverripplespeaks]

for the scugshroom colony! my inky cap sisters, bell and inky.

bell is a shaggy ink cap mushroom, and there isnt much to say about her. if they are killed, whatever would be eating them only has a matter of time until they dissolve into an inky black puddle of bones. also, bell has incredibly long fur and it is almost completely unable to be tamed down. anyways, mushroom is pretty basic from what ive seen so i kinda have to give her her own personality outside of the mushroom.

she is very adventurous and tries to drag inky along with her to see new places and meet new creatures. she also runs head-first into conflict without thinking of a plan, much to her sisters dismay.

inky is im not sure what kind of inky cap, but her personality and such is based off a common inky cap. though, if she happened to be killed and consumed around the time the eater consumed a mushroom (like, the literal ones in game) it would cause many side affects and they would likely die.

she is the more.. tame one out of the sisters. she thinks before she acts, and in an attack situation, will always pay attention to her opponents strengths and weaknesses. she is also quiter, preferring to stay around the edges of the colony, though its hard to do that when bell is ecstatic to meet everyone. she takes the weird looks they get for being like 2 scugs in the same body very seriously, and gets a personal vendetta against anyone who does that.

despite how she seems, she can be kind and only wants to protect her and her sister. she believes that bells extrovert behavior and positive mindset will end up getting them hurt in the long run.

(also, yes ik i didnt color their legs correctly for the side view thingy)

@mushroominaforest idk if u wanted to be tagged for these, but i did it just in case

[originalwinnerfanfish]

Guys have no instinct for self-preservation

I really like @alexkittyandra characters, but Chicken is definitely my favourite)

I believe that Chicken of the woods and Saffron could be good friends, sharing a common love of cooking and finding new ingredients. I also have a hadcanon, that, being a favorite delicacy of lizards, they really like to consume their eggs

[mushroominaforest]

hi you made me remember I liked mushrooms cuz they're so cool so I made a scug out of it

Yoooo this sluggo is so cool!!! I love them!!!!! Do they have a name?

(I should make a mushroom scug oc >:3)
