The River Colony cats reference sheets for the Chapter One animation! These are fairly simple ref sheets because there was a lot of characters in the 1st episode. Just enough info to get the episode done, basically! haha Snap and I also knew the characters well enough to get by with just a simple cheat sheet. We now make much more detailed character sheets. Also, please ignore the WarriorCats lingo still present on some of this older art lol

The Rescue Bot Massacre

The Rescue Bots and Rescue Bots Academy were a true neutral in the war. They would help either side after a battle, offering aid and energon to the soldiers. After one battle however, the Protectobots had descended on a battle field after the battle was over. They went about leading their other teams to help the different sides. Blades had found Soundwave, who was trying to keep Buzzsaw alive after a devastating blow. Blades immediately helped Soundwave and Buzzsaw, but as he was fixing them up, Megatron approached the group.

"What is the meaning of this? Why are you helping the Autobots."

Blades was obviously taken aback by this, but kept his eyes on the repairs.

"We're Rescue Bots. We help anyone and everyone, no matter the fraction."

Megatron's face after that was unreadable, even Soundwave was confused. Megatron had stormed off after that, and neither bot acknowledged it further.

In the cycles following that interaction, Megatron had issued a statement to all Decepticons that they were to not trust the Rescue Bots. Due to their neutrality during the war, they were inherently traitors of the cause and must be destroyed.

Fearing for their city and students' safety, the Protectobots (Alpha team 1 and 2) made the call to join the Autobot forces as Protectobots, not Rescue Bots. They also reached out to their allies in Vos, who at that time were also a neutral force to the war. Together, between the Protectobots, Vos, and their new allies of the early Autobots, they were able to keep Decepticon forces at bay from destroying Rescue City. Even when Vos eventually fell to the Decepticons, the Wreckers were able to fill their place.

However, when Alpha team 1, the original Protectobots, fell at Tagan Heights, that security over Rescue City fell as well. Megatron did not attack right as they fell. It took several Vorns in fact before the Decepticons attacked the city. Alpha team 2, which consisted of Skyfeather, Heatrock, Rook, and Medix, had to take over governing the city and protecting it in the wake of their Parensnatales' death.

When the Decepticon forces finally attacked the city, Skyfeather was their first contact. All of the students had been evacuated into underground bunkers. The Alpha teams were the only ones on the surface level, ready to defend their homes.

"Surrender the Rescue Bot forces to the Decepticons, or prepare to be taken by force."

Megatron stood in front of Skyfeather, as she stood between him and the academy.

"My Adsero built this academy from the grounds up with his gestalt. I will not allow you to take that away from him. You'd have to kill me first."

Skyfeather's death marked the start of the Rescue Bot Massacre. The rest of the Alpha teams followed, before the lower bunkers were breached. Anyone who refused to join was slaughtered.

By the dawn of the next day, the remaining Autobot forces on Cybertron finally arrived, communication having been cut during the start of the Massacre. The Wreckers were the first there, being greeted by the blood shed. Any Rescue Team that were not present in the city were hunted in the following cycles. In all, anywhere from 472-714 Rescue Bots and Rescue Bot recruits were slaughtered in this attack.

The only ones left, were a small Sigma ship, floating in stasis in deep space.

EVERFREE FEVER

Character Log: Skyfeather

[@nash-artz-my-gays]

Skyfeather is the foalhood friend of Stormy’s. Born a Unicorn they knew nothing but the freedom of innocents. Dreamed big and looked brightly towards the future.

Like many ponies, Sky didn’t really get many details on what happened to Stormy’s patients nor why she was being sent back to Canterlot to live with her grandparents and the rest of the Starlet family and he never got an explanation.

Skyfeather became an alicorn via an accident with black magic that ended up killing his adoptive mother and later his adoptive father would move away. Possibly for the best knowing what happens to ponyville.

Ridiculed by the general populous. Skyfeather just wants a quiet life and worked as a librarian and occasionally helped the baker, Sweet Pea out. One of the few townsfolk that treat him well.

This is where he reunited with Stormy. Despite a rocky reunion they got along well after awhile and next to Lily. Sky was the first pony to see Stormy after she escaped the Everfree and was the one to cut off her wing, soothing her.

When Steele erupted from the forest after Stormy, Skyfeather put a barrier up around Ponyville while the three figured out what to do. After he forced Stormy to get some actual sleep of course.

Lily was the one to send a letter to Callisto.

They would quickly find out that the barrier was only a temporary solution as one night Sky’s horn burn out in a violent spark of light. Steele had broken the barrier.

It lasted for a month. The screams were immediate. It was too late to stall the apocalypse.

Skyfeather is Stormy’s anchor. She would be far more unstable if he wasn’t there. He makes sure she sleeps, eats and stays hydrated. This stallion would rather die than let something happen to that Pegasus. When they’re not relocating as a group, Sky is nearby Stormy at all times. Where one is, the other isn’t far behind.

Skyfeather is the father of a baby dragon named Gus

This Electronic Animation Is For @ariesalpinesavi 😎

[mysticfoxdesigns]

They look so cute in your style!!!

Blades essentially also adopted all of the Terrans as well, however Twitch was the first one to fully warm up to it.

And @cayennesugar nothing bad happens to this family, the war is over so the angst is also mostly over

Sooooooooo

Some Blades and Twitch doodles

These totally weren’t the reason I ultimately decided to add the Terrans- (yes it was)

PLZ BLADES BEING TWITCH’S DAD IMMA DIE /POS

I LOVE THEM SO SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR BLESSING ME WITH THESE BEAUTIFUL DOODLES

I WILL LITERALLY DIE FOR THEM OH MY GOD 😭❤️🌷✨

i am looking for any and all minor (and minor-ish) transformer characters who are/were medics, firefighters, engineers, police officers and first responder types or could be implied to be so, any series is fine but you can specify! (they don't need to be autobots only)

i need this for reasons 👀 feel free to add your unsung blorbos to the list (bonus points for tf wiki links)

this is mostly off of the LL crew list as a starting point (i may have missed some)

working on color and pattern variation for the mountain gryphons of Athzurea

these northern mountain gryphons, or "royal" gryphons, are experimental but meant to represent the diversity present in mountain gryphon genetics. while not EXPLICITLY linked to royal heritage, blue feathers are generally considered a signifier of it.

after the age of war, entirely blue gryphons (like the center-left design pictured) became much less common, and the mad king Crevasse was one of the last truly blue kings of the Skyfeather empire.

The three if they were blueoak kids

Not a lot of character changes besides Skyfeather who's deaf instead of blind. He takes Mosskit's role, Skyfeather barely survives the journey to Riverclan and as result was sickly his entire kithood and lost his hearing due to infection. I also really like the idea that Roseythorn kills Tigerstar in this au. Eelshock is there for moral support.

Individual images of each cat below plus the first design i made for eelshock months ago and then just gave up on the rest lol

Todays fathers day, and I only have one character I have drawn consistently with their children.

So happy Adsero/Fathers day to Blades

EVERFREE FEVER

Character log: Stormy Weather

The first to discover the long lost disease. She was sent to ponyville under the order of Queen Callisto to try and dig up the lost history of The Everfree Forest and why it formed. While she did find the answers the Queen wanted, it came at a cost.

She and the bodyguard she was accompanied by found somepony or.. some thing and it wasn’t friendly. The decades old body of patient 0 which still lived and moved. It attacked them and bit Steele on the leg. Unknowingly, Stormy allowed the infection to spread beyond saving to her bodyguard and friend and had her wing bitten by Steele’s body. However, she successfully escaped him and the Everfree.

They had been gone for a few days at this point and her friends in Ponyville got worried and were looking for her.

Skyfeather(a friend’s oc) was the first to find her. Stormy was in a state of hysteria and inconsolable absolutely insistent Sky cut her wing off. She was on the 2 hour mark of the first stage. By pure luck she was able to calm down enough to explain vaguely that if Skyfeather didn’t cut the wing off, she’d need to be killed or she would become a danger to ponies.

Everfree Fever has a weakness towards certain types of magic.

They learned that quickly as it burned the stump of her wing when another, her cousin Lily Ink tried to heal up the injury.

Unfortunately, Steele’s body had found a way out of the Everfree too and the infection spread. Rapidly.

Day in day out, Stormy tries desperately to find a cure. To undo the mistake she unknowingly made. It wasn’t her fault, she couldn’t have known but she blames herself regardless.

Any food she finds is given to the group that survive with her. She eats last and refuses otherwise. She doesn’t sleep either, her cousin and Skyfeather have to fight with her to take care of herself.

Skyfeather belongs to @nash-artz-my-gays

Bumblebee and Skyfeather’s human au versions are done!

And yes Skyfeather is a massive Maximum Ride fan because I said so-
