the trio’s little icons are done!

[wacastarofthenight]

a little rabbitleap doodle and an ivyheart concept doodle!

i like the idea of her having more droopy ears compared to other cats!

[wacastarofthenight]

doodle of a brand new kitty!

she’s called windy and she’s a loner who lives on the outskirts of heatherclan territory. she’s close friends with sooty whom she often lends her best too. she’s a very fast cat being able to outrun the clan cats and loner group who try and chase her out of their territories.

[wacastarofthenight]

working on mini icons for every kitty to go alongside the full body portraits! i can use these for things like family trees!!

heatherheart here is my test subject and i think it went well :)

crookedpaw is based off of the medicine cat of an old clangen clan named JayClan i had last summer! she’s one of many warrior cats ocs that no longer have a continuity to exist in with majority are my old roleplay ocs but there’s a select few such as crookedpelt here who are from a short lived clangen clan! by including them in sotn and reworking their characters slightly they have a place to stay once again!!

the art above is a drawing i did of crookedpelt last summer (drawn 11.07.23) as she was my favourite of all of the clangen cats! i’ve reworked her design a little bit now to fit with my new style and fill in the off blank spots in her design.

this is her clangen sprite she’s a very pretty cat :)

it’s crookedpaw! she’s the beetlclan medicine cat apprentice. she’s very enthusiastic to learn the ways of a medicine cat and is fascinated with the stars in silverpelt and the prospect that one day starclan will communicate with her too like they do with batear and the other medicine cats. she’s very friendly and cares about her clan very deeply. the whole reason she wished to become a medicine cat in the first place, besides her fascination with her warrior ancestors, was to keep her clan happy and healthy. she admires batear a great deal and thinks he’s super cool and talented. she doesn’t mind if she has to work in silence if it means she can work alongside him. she loves the attention that ivyheart and thistlejaw give her during the medicine cat meetings as the youngest at the meetings, snowpaw, the other medicine cat in the territories, is a few moons older than her.

meet miss shadeheart! she’s a senior warrior of beetleclan and has lived under two different leaders in her lifetime. despite her and her mate, slateeyes,’s older age the pair have recently become first time parents to the orphaned jaykit. slateeyes temporarily gave up her warrior duties to become a queen in the nursery just to watch over jaykit while shadeheart kept her duties. she frequently visits her mate and new son in the nursery to help care for the kit. shadeheart is a skilled hunter and has trained many apprentices under her wing over her seasons as warrior. the clan was shocked when otterstar named the young warrior roseflight as deputy instead of shadeheart or her brother oaktail whom robinstar had been actively considering for the role because of their experience. shadeheart doesn’t mind this though as she’ll gladly serve her clan no matter what. shadeheart and oaktail look rather similar, especially when they were apprentices and young warriors, but nowadays shadeheart has a lot more grey hairs compared to him. the scar along her belly came from a border spat between cloudclan and beetleclan when she was young. the wound had almost been her end but remarkably tawnyface was able to heal her and she made a full recovery. her days as a warrior are far less exciting now but her time as a warrior will definitely make for good stories when she’s ready to retire to the elders den. she’s not quite ready to give up her duties yet but she’ll know rest one of these days!

[wacastarofthenight]

coming to you straight from the heatherclan nursery are magpiekit and frecklekit! two playful bundles of fluff who are oh so close to becoming apprentices to the clan. their mother is the heatherclan queen amberspots and their father is the clan deputy ravenflight. the two kits are as close as can be and are always by each others sides playing or listening to the stories the elders tell. magpiekit has received visions of the past and future from starclan with his parents taking great pride in his strong connection to starclan at such a young age. he’ll soon become the rabbitleap’s apprentice whom will ideally help him train his gift to benefit the clan. magpiekit is excited to become an apprentice but is very nervous also as he fears that his gift is super important and he’ll let the clan down if he doesn’t find a way to use it well, but when he’s by his sister’s side these worries melt away. frecklekit has already started practicing her hunters crouch in the clan camp copying the apprentices when they practice spar in the camp clearing on quiet afternoons. she’s ecstatic at the thought of getting to train to become a strong warrior like her dad but only wishes that the apprentices would let her soar with them too when doepaw says she’s too little and they don’t want to hurt her when practicing. things are alright though as heatherheart happily plays with the kits during her nursery visits. frecklekit has grown very attached to heatherheart and hopes that she’ll have her as a mentor, heatherheart feels the same for the bright eyed kit.

[wacastarofthenight]

it’s batear time! he’s beetleclan’s medicine cat who never really wanted to become one rather being thrust into the position by his former mentor robinstar and the late medicine cat tawnyface. he’s a rather grumpy cat preferring not to be disturbed while he’s working. no matter how groomed his fur is his spikes will always spike back up. he was named after his jet black fur and his fangs which stick out of his muzzle. his suffix came from his large ears. he’s currently training the medicine cat apprentice crookedpaw who’s a very keen learner who doesn’t mind working in silence so that batear can concentrate. during medicine cat meetings ivyheart, cloudclan’s medicine cat, loves fawning over the younger medicine cats but especially over batear as he reminds her a lot of her son, nightpelt.

you can find out some more about the reason why batear was made to become the clan medicine cat from this post here discussing all of the sotn medicine cats!

[wacastarofthenight]

this is russetburr! he’s the last of the main trio in star of the night :)

he’s a heatherclan warrior and son of the leader rootstar and the deceased queen kestrelwing. he was born alongside his younger brother foxfern and his baby sister emberkit, she wouldn’t make it through the night however being born too weak to feed properly. when russetkit and foxkit were almost ready to become apprentices their mother kestrelwing died and it wasn’t long before rootstar took a new mate with russetburr feeling great resentment for that beginning to think that maybe his father had something to do with his mother’s death. russetburr had never had a very good relationship with his father as he was very demanding of him and wanting him to act exactly as told of him, and unlike his younger brother foxfern russetburr wouldn’t listen. while he was an apprentice on patrol with lightningpaw (lightningfang), his mentor thornjaw and rootstar they were attacked by a fox. after this attack russetburr was left bleeding out in the undergrowth which his wounds of the time would later turn into the scars he now sports as a warrior, this is also how lightningfang got her scars as she had fiercely fought against the fox to shoo it from the territory. russetburr doesn’t like thinking about that day often with it also causing a larger strain on his relationship with his dad. russetburr has an apprentice called berrypaw who came to the clan only two moons ago being frail and half dead when he was found resting amongst some heather not far from the camp entrance. rootstar gave the responsibility of caring for the young and scared cat to him and russetburr reluctantly accepted. he often spends his free time off from his duties around the medicine cat den helping rabbitleap, sharing tongues with him and eating fresh kill with him and heatherheart. simple things like that help him stay grounded.

this is the last piece of art for star of the night i’ll be posting on this blog but if you’re interested in any more you can check out the new side blog! @wacastarofthenight :)

im glad you’re up for some yapping binary anon!

so in star of the night there are four clans: heatherclan (the clan where the main characters are from), brookclan (the clan which heatherheart’s love interest alderbrook is from), beetleclan (the clan where heatherclan apprentice berrypaw originally comes from and also where batear resides) and cloudclan. heatherclan is lead by rootstar, brookclan is lead by otterstar, beetleclan is lead by robinstar and cloudclan is lead by sweetstar. things within the territories are peaceful currently but all of the medicine cats of each clan keep receiving strange omens from starclan which none of them can decipher.

for yapping sake so i’m not brought off course i’ll just talk about the medicine cats because i keep thinking about them specifically. so time for introductions to all of the medicine cats and their apprentices in star of the night!

heatherclan has rabbitleap who’s only recently become the clan’s sole medicine cat after his mentor blacktail went to join starclan. blacktail was a very beloved cat within the clan with him being missed by all which has left young rabbitleap with big paw steps to fill in his absence. rabbitleap has the spirit of heatherclan ancestor smallant seemingly tethered to his soul and neither of the pair know why though rabbitleap has been trying hard to figure it out, it’s unhelpful though when smallant has only vague memories of when he was alive. starclan keep sending him visions of an incredibly bright star in the sky though he and the other medicine cats don’t understand what it’s trying to tell him. magpiekit is the future medicine cat apprentice for heatherclan with him already receiving visions from starclan despite still being in the nursery. in these vivid visions he sees his clan’s past varying in time period, sometimes it’ll be from when rabbitleap was an apprentice and sometimes it will be before even mothface, the clan’s oldest elder, was born. rabbitleap is hopeful that magpiekit can help him with his smallant spirit problem. rabbitleap is very hesitant on sharing any starclan business with the clan’s leader rootstar as rootstar has made it clear he doesn’t like rabbitleap much and much preferred blacktail. this strained bond makes rabbitleap fearful as medicine cats and leaders are meant to be close as a result of their positions in the clan and their closer connection to their warrior ancestors in starclan. it seems that rootstar doesn’t care for this though as he doesn’t share anything with rabbitleap and only cares for the power he can gain from his clan.

brookclan has thistlejaw, minnowwhisker and minnowwhisker’s apprentice snowpaw. thistlejaw is the oldest medicine cat in the territories and despite minnowwhsiker having been a full fledged medicine cat for several seasons now with an apprentice of her own he refuses retirement to the elders den siting that the only way that he’d stop serving his clan as medicine cat was if starclan were to drag him off to silverpelt and even then he’d put up a fight. he’s one stubborn fellow and always has been. he’s seen many battles and raids on his clan in his time alive leaving him with stories galore to captivate the kits in the nursery and even the apprentices when they bring him fresh kill. it wasn’t these battles or raids that gave him the worst of his scars however it was a fox attack on camp where he sustained his missing eye and the exposed portion of his jaw along with the exposed skin around the left side of his face where the fox ripped the fur out which never did quite grow back. he fought the fox off defending a brookclan queen who was in the den kitting when he was merely an apprentice. he has lived through three leaderships in brookclan with him not missing a beat in saying how proud he is that his clan has had so many strong and loyal leaders that he’s served under. otterstar and him are very close with the leader often seeking out wisdom from the older cat in important decisions for the clan, a relationship which rabbitleap envies greatly. thistlejaw has had two apprentices in his time as clan medicine cat the first was finchpelt, whom later went to join starclan after returning to the flooded brookclan camp to rescue a kit who had unknowingly been left behind during the great storm he managed to rescue the kit but finchpelt ended up inhaling too much of the flood water which killed him, and his second was minnowwhisker. minnowwhisker is the younger medicine cat who was apprenticed to thistlejaw after she proved to be far too nervous and gentle to be a warrior for the clan with thornstar (the clan leader prior to otterstar) decided she would fare better as a medicine cat where she could use her gentle nature to care for her injured and sick clan mates. despite her nervous demeanour minnowwhisker is a very friendly she cat with her having close bonds with many of her clan mates and even being close to the other clan’s medicine cats. because of thistlejaw’s advancing age otterstar has began to worry for his dear friend and to ensure that his clan remains strong in the event they lose thistlejaw he apprenticed the young snowpaw to minnowwhisker in hopes that having both her and thristlejaw around will make him the a great medicine cat. snowpaw is a young fluffy black tom with a distinct feathery white tail, which he got his name from. he’s rather sarcastic and blunt but does have an enthusiasm to learn, though he may show it differently from the other apprentices, with his training going well. being the only kitten to survive in his litter his mother, pebblefoot, is rather protective of him still even though he’s no longer in the nursery with her frequently checking up on him during her free time.

beetleclan has batear and his new apprentice crookedpaw. batear is a jet black tom with spiky fur, large ears, piercing amber eyes and fangs which poke out of his mouth. batear was originally a warrior apprentice but was moved to the medicine cat den against his wishes to be trained as a medicine cat to replace the elder medicine cat tawnyface. batpaw was angry with this as he was the best warrior apprentice the clan had with his leader and mentor robinstar even telling him so. tawnyface’s old age wasn’t the reason for batear becoming the next medicine cat, though tawnyface was seeking out an apprentice for that reason, it was that robinstar has received a troubling prophecy from starclan which had showed him what great destructive power batpaw could be capable of if he were to be a warrior for the clan and in order to prevent the prophecy from coming true he was made medicine cat apprentice. though batear doesn’t know any of this with tawnyface, robinstar and beetleclan deputy roseflight keeping the secret for fear that if batear found the prophecy out that he would make it come true out of spite. crookedpaw is fairly new to her training but is a fast learner and unlike batear actually wanted to become a medicine cat so she can help take care of the cats in the clan and to soothe their pain. crookedpaw was named after her strange pelt which makes it appear crooked. she shows great promise as a future medicine cat.

cloudclan has ivyheart as its medicine cat. ivy heart is an older pale ginger she cat with ivy green eyes and long droopy fur around her face and on her legs near her paws. ivyheart wasn’t always the clan’s medicine cat instead she stepped into the role after the clan’s medicine cat, twigbelly, and her apprentice, barleypaw, fell ill two seasons ago during leaf bare after illness spread throughout the clan. the illness ended up taking barleypaw’s life along with the other cats in the clan though not nearly as many as what would’ve died if ivyheart hadn’t stepped in and learned the basic remedies using memories from her kithood of watching the medicine cats organise their herbs and berries. twigbelly was left extremely weak even after the illness had passed and never completely recovered which forced him to retire from being the clan’s full time medicine cat moving into the elder’s den. ivyheart hasn’t yet learned everything there is to know yet but when twigbelly is fit enough to supervise her he’s able to keep her right. ivyheart is a very caring cat and loves her family and her clan deeply and just because she’s a medicine cat now doesn’t mean she’s forgotten her many moons worth of warriors training still retaining her fighting edge. unlike the other medicine cats in the territory ivyheart is the only one to have had kits having had two litters prior to becoming a medicine cat. these kits have went on to become brave and noble cloudclan warriors one of which happens to be the clan’s deputy frogsight. during the meeting with the other medicine cats she can’t help but let her motherly nature take over when talking to the younger cats seeing them like her trusted kin. she’s very proud of her fellow medicine cats and loves seeing how much their apprentices are growing each time she gets to see them at the meetings.

anyways that’s all i’ve got for the medicine cats of the territories so far! hope you’ve enjoyed my yapping binary anon because i sure enjoyed it :)

[wacastarofthenight]

another kitty!

this is rabbitleap and he’s the heatherclan medicine cat! he’s still a bit nervous to be doing his job alone after the death of his mentor blacktail but he’s trying his best for the sake of the clan. soon he’ll become mentor to magpiekit once he’s old enough as he’s already received dreams from starclan directing him towards the path of medicine cat. his sister is heatherheart who he’s very close to despite their different duties in the clan with him, her and his best friend russetburr often sharing tongues, eating prey together and helping around camp together. there’s a ghost cat that’s tethered to his soul called smallant who’s been there for as long as he can remember and he has no idea why starclan has sent him to follow him around all day. he’s recently received a prophecy from starclan of a mysterious star of the night that he’s yet to decode…

drawing one of my warrior cat girlies!!

she’s called heatherheart and she’s a warrior for heatherclan (name purely coincidental). she’s a skilled hunter and she often hangs around the nursery helping the queens and playing with the kits and around the medicine cat den so she can see her brother rabbitleap. frecklekit has taken a particular liking to heatherheart and she hopes that when frecklekit is old enough that she’ll be apprenticed to her. she has urple eyes :)

this is rabbitleap the young medicine cat of windclan (and also the protagonist of star of the night) who’s soul is tethered to the spirit of a deceased windclan warrior of the past called smallant
