Owlclan cats

Keep in mind that when I feel there is a need I might switch around protagonists in favour of story telling and character development, otherwise this poll determines the one to kickstart the comic story and last us the first few moons.

Shrimpstar, Beetle and our grumpy old medicine cat Roachfly

-Mistle colony is named for the mistletoe constantly and unwavering growing on the ruins they inhabit in the heart of their territory. They have great pride in their home.

Rough human designs for the owlclan apprentices

the clans only elder, absolute sweetie <3

he’s more likely to challenge rules and the ideals of his elders in question of their level of justice

so I’m currently working on a mini comic of the clan’s current apprentices first gathering and I’d like to say that while she isn’t an apprentice as of the start of the moons, cariboupaw at the time of her first gathering would so most definitely be so caught up in her own thoughts of “I need to stay neutral like deerstar said because cross clan relationships can go so many shades of wrong and bad but also rowanpatch said it was important to be on good terms with other clans because that ability to communicate and familiarity is what can prevent wars and unnecessary disputes and it keeps the balance but also..” that she wouldn’t actually do anything but sit in one spot in the corner tensely… until her thoughts are interrupted by a pretty fellow she-cat apprentice who becomes a close friend and will be introduced later bUT in other words they hit it off straight away and as they talk and get to know eachother better the other apprentice COUGH Finchpaw COUGH COUGH HACK CUAOUGH slowly brings out the more confident, intelligent Cariboupaw. So ya just a little lore drop for my favourite sneaky car but that’s it for now >:)

IMPORTANT NOTE- While Wolfpaw is intended to be a lykoi cat, I do not by any means condone the purposeful breeding and marketing of the lykoi gene. Wolfpaw is a disabled character who is intended to portray some of the issues of unethical and under researched or careless breeding, and will display the skin conditions that are INHERENT, and IRREMOVABLE in the lykoi gene. This cat is meant to spread further awareness on the subject through showing readers how it can affect the cat’s quality of life, and discourage the way the harmful phenotype has been capitalised upon.

One of the younger cats of the clan, more on Wolfpaw soon :)

Mudbreeze was another warrior originally from outside the clan. Rowan’patch took her from a group of rogues he had been observing just outside the reach of the owl colony’s territory, after noticing the cats seemed not to want the small, weak kit. It turned out that it was most likely the mother’s neglect that caused the undernourished state of mud’kit, as she quickly gained strength and gratitude to the clan. From there she trained hard and long as an apprentice, ambitiously memorising the code and the clan’s history and going onto be a praised and respected warrior. By the time she reached the end of her training (mostly with Rowan’patch, due to Deer’stars unacknowledged negligence), she was known to be an exemplary and intelligent young graduate.

I also like the parallel that male caribou shed their antlers by winter, where the female caribou keep theirs through the cruel season. Similar to how Caribou’whisker doesn’t waver when faced with exhaustion or hunger in hard times, but remains steadfast and refuses to lose her edge, her spirit, her determination.

at this point mud is 11 moons and caribou 9, where they start to notice eachother more on patrols or crossing eachother’s training.

(also ignore the lighter colourpallete I forgot to remove it lol)
