how come the cats that got accessories this moon all have blue eyes jKLGDJSG

also cricketclan is stealing more apprentices

[fledermaus-art]

Murmurs of unease swept through the clan, each cat looking at one another.

Deadfoot grunted, looking toward the clan's medicine cat. "Barkface? What do you think?"

The mentioned tom sat with his paws tucked neatly to himself, studying the three pitiful bundles of fur. "StarClan has not sent me any signs to indicate that this is a poor nor good idea. I say that Tallstar's decision is law."

A sigh of relief escaped the black and white tom's lips upon hearing Barkface's words. At least the clan's medicine cat didn't object to his choice. His glance traveled over each of the cats, studying their expressions. Most of them looked nervous, a deep discomfort on their features at the idea of taking three dogs into their camp.

Self-indulgent AU involving greyhounds in WindClan yippee :3c

[salt-clan]

A bit of a big post because I shouldn't separate them (unlike Butterflyflash, who actually took the three away from Maplemoth...)

Meet Maplemoth (she/her), a warrior of CarnationClan! She joined CarnationClan when it first formed, but her sister, Butterflyflash wasn't allowed in since they saw her as weak. Maplemoth is strict and shameless.

Wormkit (she/her) is a troublesome kit currently in SaltClan. She is also a careful listener.

Owlkit (he/him) is a daydreamer who is interested in the history of SaltClan, where he resides.

Boughkit (he/him) is a polite kit who is interested in history, like his brother.

All three kits were adopted by Speckledtrout after Butterflyflash died. Their biological mother is Maplemoth.

Moon 149-Greenleaf

At long last, Sleepypaw (15) has been made a full Healer.  She is named Sleepyfoot in honor of her serenity.  Steppemimic (32) thinks fondly back to when Sleepyfoot was a kit, running around in the healer's den and following after her mom.  She’s come so far.  Yuccastar (128) has been watching the new kits closely.  It makes Gladepatch (25) nervous.  He tries to distract her by asking her to speak up in a conversation they’re having but it doesn’t work.  She just keeps staring at Creekkit (3).  Does she suspect something?  Fry (56) is not a fan of how close Frostheart (52) is getting to his daughter, Steppemimic.  He got in a spat with her over a piece of fresh-kill, but it was really about him being an overprotective dad.  Peakspots (118) feels like Wildcave (32) is too headstrong of a deputy and brings it up with him, but the two get in a fight.  Wildcave is a different cat than Peakspots.  He’ll be deputy however he likes!  Pigeonspot (18) has noticed that Gladepatch seems to be hiding something.  She knows that plants tend to inch away from an earth-blessed cat when they lie, and they’ve been doing that whenever he’s been talking about his kits.  What is going on?  Amethystdapple (76), on the other paw, is watching the kits with fondness.  She laughs when Featherkit (5) blows a gust of wind at Wormkit (5) from behind, knocking him over.  She knows they’ll grow out of it when they’re apprentices, so she’ll enjoy it while it lasts.  She wonders if Fry  would ever like to have more kits.  Songkit (3)is a bit annoyed at Rabbitkit (5).  The older kit is always rubbing it in his face that he doesn’t have powers and she does.  He really wants to tell her that he actually does have powers.  And light her on fire.  Just a little bit.  But he can’t.  Because Gladepatch says so.  Sigh.  While on a patrol, Fry and Cypressbadger (15) come across a kittypet with her kits.  She introduces herself as Blossom (76) and explains that she fled her twolegs when one of them beat her kit, Rocky (4).  The Clan agrees to take her and her three kits in, and she changes her name to Volcanoblossom.  It turns out that she has an incredibly strong water-blessing, even rivaling that of the deceased Shardfrost.   Her youngest kit, Slipkit (4), is powerless, although with the amount of noise she makes it’s easy to forget.  The scarred Rockykit does have magic, although his water-blessing is very weak.  Her third kit, Whistlekit (4), is on the complete opposite side of the power spectrum.  She has a water-blessing that may be even more powerful than her mother’s.  She’s already flooded the camp, which Chervilcry (128) and Volcanoblossom have to clean up.  She’ll  be a formidable warrior when she’s grown.

A common sight in the Steamlands

it's even better when you remember there's no prey in the Dark Forest so where did he get that thing?

[warriorcatsobsession]

Another warrior cats oc that i randomly made up just now

This is Wormwiggle. They were found by a WindClan patrol who found a giant monster that was sleeping, and inside they found a pretty big looking kit inside of a trap. They brought them back to the Clan camp, and proceeded to name them "Wormkit" because their new mother thinks that their spots look like worms.

They're much bigger than their Clanmates, and they meow a little weirdly, but they're a good hunter, great at digging tunnels, and is very loyal to the Clan, so WindClan doesn't mind! (Every other Clans are worried tho)

[phenixthechangling]

If there's a COTL ship that you would really love for a fan child of, don't hesitate to leave a comment or submit a question into the ask box. I don't know many of the ships, so I'm willing to experiment.

Stay safe, everyone!

[wc-confessions]

Everyone's saying that split clan jobs are great but I can't help but say a big old yikes to that. It can be a generally good idea if you erase all the problems that come with the idea. To do that, you have to take a deeper look at Tallstar's Revenge to see how awful an idea it could be. Cats were very much at odds with each other. Tallstar constantly got bullied by Shrewclaw from literally birth as 'Wormkit' and his dad legitimately couldn't handle the idea of him being a moorrunner and not a tunneler. Not only that but all the tunnelers seemed very upset that two tunneler mates talked it over with Heatherstar and made their kid a moorrunner.

So in theory, yes it can be a good idea and it'll be your stories to do as you please, but realistically, it would divide the clan very much.

[canon-notcanon-warriorcats]

Okay time for opinions on warrior names :) Top five prefixes you want to see used for the first time, top five prefixes you want to be reused, top five prefixes not used and you hope never are, and top five prefixes you pray to StarClan the Erins forget about Su's no-longer-canon prefixes can go under never used or reused depending on how you want to look at them Bonus, include suffixes (doesn't have to be five, as many as you want if you do)

i want them to use bear- i don't care if there has never been a bear in the series before, they've used like pear-, cherry-, olive-, apple, otter-, and wolf- before and when the fuck have any of those ever been mentioned in the books, except i think wolves were seen like once in like one paragraph or something i dunno

oh, and also beaver- because they know what beavers are now, i think dovewing and tigerheart should name one of their kits beaverkit, i mean that's how they literally met was on the journey to find the beavers, or petalfur should have, brackenpelt should be beaverpelt, or sedgewhisker should have, featherpelt could have been beaverpelt, or larkwing could have been beaverwing

and raccoon-, skunk-, opossum-, let's get more of a variety of animal names tbh, dragonfly-, caterpillar-, bat-, bug-, ladybug-, mosquito-, chaffinch-, butterfly-, mockingbird-, cardinal-, groundhog-, sheep-, cow-, horse-, firefly-, pig-, chicken-, rooster-, boar-, cocoon- (i dunno if that counts as an animal, i think it should), more specific bird species, etc

also egg-, i want them to use egg-

OH and like, temperature names or adjectives like warm-, chilly-, chill-, frosty-, dewy-, cloudy-, breezy-, clouded-, windy-, stormy-, etc

also dandelion- and other flower names

also purple-, pink-, and orange, they've never used those colors for names before

i'm not doing ones they haven't used that i don't want them to use because honestly i don't think there are any that i would dislike them using, like MAYBE worm- i guess because that was specifically used as an insult towards tallstar when he was a kit so that'd be weird to actually name a kit wormkit

ones i want them to bring back: running- PLEASE bring back running- and like other verb and adverb prefixes like swift-, bring back wolf- and vixen- PLEASE, and also badger- and otter-

this has never technically been a prefix before, but there was that character shivering rose and like FUCK THAT'S SUCH A GOOD NAME, please i want them to use shiver- or shivering- as a prefix

we also haven't really had morning- or dawn- in a while, i like those names

they also don't use color names really anymore since like ambermoon, or technically violetshine though she was named after the flower, and graysky and graypaw, bring blue-, red-, black-, yellow-, silver-, and white- back, and also they've used green- and brown- like ONCE each, bring those back too

ones i don't want them to use anymore: so there aren't really any prefixes that i don't want them to use ever again but like... stop naming cats wrenflight and robinwing, please we have enough wrenflights and robinwings, technically they've only named two cats wrenflight, but like i was looking forward to finding out what wrenpaw's warrior name was gonna be, and when i found out it was wrenflight i was so disappointed like erins PLEASE wrenflight is literally tallstar's sister and onestar's mother, you KNEW you already used that name before and you had JUST given two characters such cool and creative names with kitescratch and turtlecrawl and now you're deciding to go back

actually that's a lie, i want them to name one more character robinwing, but they have to be shadowclan so there can have been a robinwing in every clan, we need the whole set

sorry i ignored the list 5 rule, i had way more ideas than i thought lol

[king-leos-world]

Last but not least, MarshClan. MarshClan Warriors Part 1.

Wormtail: Smart, relaxed, and firm (I was inspired by the name Shrewclaw used to call, tease Tallstar in warriors; Wormkit, Wormpaw, Wormcat, so I thought it'd be a good name for this guy)

Snailshell: Precise, crafty, and positive

Alligatorjaw: Rational, wise, and hardworking

Snakestripe: Fussy, resourceful, and open minded (apologies for how she looks, she's dark brown but my scanner is not easy on dark colors)

Cranefoot: Strict, passionate, and smart

Enjoy!

Warriors belongs to Erin Hunter

These guys belong to me

Moon 146-Newleaf

Cressfreckle (62) has been upping his investigation of Yuccastar (125).  He’s been eavesdropping on her (which is a lot harder for a powerless cat than one with wind powers) and been seeing if any other cats in the Clan share his dislike of their leader.  He knows that Gladepatch (22) does, but highly doubts that Peakspots (115) and Chervilcry (125) do.  Mothecho probably would have, if she hadn’t been taken by twolegs.  Maybe his former apprentice Cypressbadger (12)?  Moorleg (58), despite being kind of annoying with her crush on him, may also end up on his side.  Maybe Pigeonspot (15) too.  Moorleg has noticed that Cressfreckle likes spending time with the kits, and so she has taken to doing so as well.  She has a great time getting into a mock battle with Rabbitkit (2).  Chasingskip (58) is looking out for her surviving kits and asks Sleepypaw (12) if there are any herbs she should look out for while on patrol later.    Steppemimic (29) has been stressed with training an apprentice and needs some more downtime.  Wildcave (29) offers to take Sleepypaw out for a patrol, which his sister appreciates.  And that gives Steppemimic a chance to hang out with Pigeonspot.  She’s the only cat that can make her laugh and its fascinating to see what an earth-blessed warrior gets up to.  Meanwhile in the elder’s den, Strawberrytrail (134) doesn’t want to take her herbs and gets in a fight with Sleepypaw.  After the fight, she ignores the Healer apprentice. Sleepypaw is also feeling ignored by her mentor and feels like Steppemimic has been shoving her off onto other cats. In the nursery, Wormkit (2) absolutely adores his sisters and hopes that Featherkit (2) will be his friend forever.  And it looks like they’ll be getting some new companions. While on a patrol, Conegoat (29) and Gladepatch find a pair of kittens next to their dead parent.  While investigating them, Gladepatch notices that one is clearly emanating. . .darkness.  And the plants around her are dead.  A dark-cursed cat!  And the other. . .well, the signs around him are fainter, but they’re there.  Two dark-cursed kittens.  Gladepatch remembers what happened to his brother and father because of their magic, and begs Conegoat to keep it a secret. He tells her that Yuccastar actually killed his brother because of his magic.  Conegoat is shocked, but agrees to keep the secret.  They take the two kittens back to camp.  The girl is named Creekkit (0) and the boy is named Songkit (0), after Yellowcreek and Graysong.

Playing Worms Armageddon in 2023

I've attended enough events and mentioned Worms Armageddon enough times to get eyebrows raised - "I remember that game! I used to love it! I wish I could still play it."

Well, the good news is that you can! The PC version is available on Steam and GOG.com for $14.99, though it's frequently on sale for $2-3.

What's more still gets updates! The most recent update, v3.8.1, was released in July 2020, and added a ton of new features as well as patching some bugs.

Some of the new features that have been added to Worms Armageddon in recent years include:

Saved replay files! You can rewatch any game you've played, and even share replays with others.

improved movement, including the ability to keep your worm facing the same direction when moving by holding down the Shift key.

Full-color maps!

Support for higher resolutions! Want to play WA on an ultrawide monitor? You can now!

Official mod support! Add WormKit mods to the game simply by dropping the mod into the game's root folder!

Despite these updates, there are still a few places where WA shows its age - the main menu, which is locked at 640x480, and the netcode, which needs some work. Fortunately, there are a couple of WormKit modules that can help with that, and I'm going to walk you through those right now!

Firstly, you need to enable WormKit support. To do this, launch WA then go to the Advanced button (found underneath the screen resolution):

From there, find the checkbox marked "Load WormKit modules" and make sure it's checked.

Once that's done, click Exit to return to the Settings screen. You'll be prompted to restart the game for changes to take effect. For now, you're just going to quit the game.

Now we're going to install two essential WormKit modules!

The first is WormNAT2. WormNAT2, when in use, allows you to host games online via WormNET without any additional tools. Simple to install - just download the zip and unpack it in the WA root folder.

The second is SuperFrontendHD, which allows the main menu to be rendered at the same resolution as in-game. This one is a little more complicated to install, but not by much - download the full package, then extract that to the root folder.

Once you've done that, go to the root folder and open wkSuperFrontend.ini - this is the settings file for SuperFrontendHD, and we're going to add a single line here under [Misc] - NoPrereleaseNag=1. This prevents SuperFrontendHD from displaying a pop-up in Windows every time you launch reminding you that the mod has some occasional, minor graphics errors.

(Note that I have a personal preference to keep the menus in a 4:3 aspect ratio, so when I edit the wkSuperFrontend.ini I change SetInternalResolution to 4x3. But you can leave this as-is if you'd prefer.)

Once you done that, launch your game! If you've already enabled WormKit in WA and have chosen an in-game resolution on the Settings screen, your frontend should go from looking like this...

...to something like this:

Or, if you're like me and you have an ultrawide monitor, you could even change it to something like this:

(This is at 1680x720, which maintains the ultrawide dimensions while keeping the game at a satisfying zoom level.)

So that's that! If you have any questions about tweaking Worms Armageddon feel free to shoot me an ask!

Moon 125

Sleekrun was washed out to sea...

Mantisears and Eggsong have recovered from yellowcough.

Coalmark ate a poisonous fish and died.

Sungill has recovered from whitecough.

Dewspots easily fought off a fox with not a hair out of place.

Nimblerise and Peachwhisker purr over their three new kits. Wormkit, Peachkit, and Lichenkit.

Plumpaw and Shadowpaw sit tall and proud as Hopstar announces their warrior names, Plumfade and Shadowcreek! Hopstar honors and celebrates their determination and composure.

Moonpaw's leg is twisted and weak but they thank Starclan that it's at least still there.

Brindlepaw has proven themselves a capable and empathetic mediator so they are given the name Brindleroach.

Riversand gracefully returns to being an elder.

Whisperpeak has brought a single kitten into the world. Sootkit.

The camp flooded! The invading waters dragged away Daisyfin, Crookedbracken, Emberdapple, Gardeniasplash, Redocean, and Plumfade.

Quillpaw has been deemed ready and has returned from the last half-moon gathering as Quilldapple.

Sporepaw is made into Sporepelt! Just as they are being honored for their morale they have to quickly excuse themselves and rush to the dirtplace. They desperately hope these stomach problems get fixed soon.

Lightpaw has become Lightnoise! They are honored for their vulnerability.

Sunpaw and Mallowpaw have become apprentices! They happily touch noses with their mentors Mantisears and Dazzlenest.

Hyacinthquill has been made deputy in Crookedbracken's place.

Mantisears has found a cat with healing skills that wishes to join the clan. They introduce themselves as Lakeshimmer.

Hemlockpelt has announced that they are expecting kits!

Bearrain and Dewspots fought off a big dog together but both were badly injured.

A loner has left a kit with the clan only telling the cats the name they chose for it. Heather.

Buzzardpaw was attacked and injured by a fox.

Sporepelt's guts feel much better.

Hyacinthquill hesitantly becomes Hyacinthstar. ⭐

Dazzlenest's tail was injured by a fox.

Conchblaze has brought three kits to camp. Waterkit, Brushkit, and Slightkit.

Dewspots and Moletangle's injuries are becoming infected.

Thunderpaw has never felt ready. They always think that there is more to learn, more to memorize, more to ingrain into their very bones. They have declined a ceremony and name for a while as they always feel unsure and not ready. Until Freezespots appeared to them in their dreams. The wise medicine cat scolded Thunderpaw for their hesitance. "You are ready," they said, "You have been ready for some time now. The only thing holding you back is you. You are a smart and capable medicine cat. You deserve your name, Thunderfur."

Squidpaw and Moonpaw have become warriors. Hyacinthstar speaks each word carefully and with purpose as they name the new warriors Squidburn and Moonkick. Honoring their humor and strong will.

Oddspots has been chosen as the new deputy of Starlingclan.
