Family Tree

Pronouns: she/her

Breed: British Shorthair

Apprentices: Sweetpaw

===================

The Warriors

Foxloot aka Foxy

Tiny, hyperactive, and adventurous - Foxloot is always finding himself in some sort of conundrum (although typically not his fault.) He means well more than anything, he just can't help but keep getting distracted!

Relationship Chart

Age: 4 years

Mate: none

Relatives: none

Pronouns: he/him

Breed: American Shorthair

Apprentices: none

Sparkbark aka Sparky

Very mellow and rarely bothered, Sparkbark has gotta be the chillest cat in the camp! Unironically, he's just like that. Nothing upsets him, he takes whatever orders given... a little boring if I'm being honest...

Relationship Chart

Age: 6 years

Mate: none

Relatives: none

Pronouns: he/him

Breed: Scottish Fold

Apprentices: none

Ralph

A former kittypet now fully embracing the wildcat life style - Ralph still has a bit of a way to go before he really feels comfortable here with the others. And with the camp. And with the food. And with himself. Will he ever be sure about anything in his life?

Relationship Chart

Age: 5 years

Mate: none

Relatives: none

Pronouns: he/him

Breed: Manx

Apprentices: none

Michael

The most mysterious cat of the lot! Being a former kittypet with a suspicious amount of scars for one, being mostly quiet, and never talking about his past life - Michael is a nut just waiting to be cracked! Or... he's just as boring as Sparkbark.

Age: 6 years

Mate: none

Relatives: none

Pronouns: he/him

Breed: Chartreux

Apprentices: none

===================

The Apprentices

Sweetpaw aka Mr. Cupcake

As sweet as his name suggests, Sweetpaw is really gunning for Chickenfluff's title as sweetest cat! Albeit unintentionally. Sweetpaw is endlessly optimistic and - as some would say - sickeningly affectionate! No frowns are allowed when Sweetpaw's around!

Relationship Chart

Age: 6 months

Mate: N/A

Family Tree

Pronouns: he/him

Breed: Munchkin

Mentor: Chickenfluff

Greypaw aka Endo-01

Greypaw - just as their name suggests - is pretty dark and gloomy a majority of the time. Having a melodramatic air about them that's just as charming and compelling as it is a little unnerving...

Relationship Chart

Age: 8 months

Mate: N/A

Relatives: none

Pronouns: they/them

Breed: Sphynx

Mentor: Fazstar

===================

The Elders

Golddust aka Golden Freddy

The grumpiest cat to ever grump, Golddust doesn't have any more time to mess around. What he wants he gets and he gets it as SOON as he wants it - or else EVERYONE will start hearing about how all his hard work over the moons is far too under appreciated.

Relationship Chart

Age: 12 years

Mate: none

Relatives: none

Pronouns: he/him

Breed: Norwegian Forest

Apprentices: N/A

===================

And that's everyone!

But wait! An important note!

Human characters (or characters that are Human in source material) that are related will not be related in Fazclan unless expressly stated so - so that means there is the *very rare* possibility that originally related characters could end up mates. They obviously would not be related here if that were the case - and it would be incredibly rare if they were to become mates considering the animatronic-to-human ratio.

(those with cyberfauna altmodes in my au are dehumanized because the functionist council declared them heretical and obsolete, therefore they’re free to hunt without it being classified as murder)

Promptoween 2024 Day 3

We’re rumbling into 1996.

Spoilers for past Rumbles.

Sunny, from her bathtub, warns us viewer indiscretion is advised. The Attitude Era doesn’t officially begin until 1997 but hints of it began way back in 1995 with the Pamela Anderson skit and continues with Sunny’s vignettes.

The undercard:

Jeff Jarrett vs Ahmed Johnson. Meh.

The Bodydonnas (Chris Candido/Tom Prichard, accompanied by Sunny) vs the Smoking Guns (Billy & Bart) for the WWF Tag Team titles. More meh.

Billionaire Ted skit with a fake Hogan, Savage, and Mean Gene. We’re wasting pay per view time on this?

Recap of the Razor Ramon – Goldust feud. Mr Machismo doesn’t appreciate Golddust’s flirtations.

Golddust (accompanied by Marlena) vs Razor Ramon for the Intercontinental title. Was this Terri Runnel’s debut for the WWF? The commentators refer to Marlena as an “unknown woman”. Golddust and Marlena’s gimmicks are forerunners to the Attitude Era. Marlena causes a distraction as the 1-2-3 Kid attacks Razor, allowing Dustin to pin Ramon and become the new Intercontinental champion.

Hype vignettes for Royal Rumble participants: Owen, Jake Roberts, Jerry Lawler, Vader, Shawn,

For the first time the Rumble does not end the pay per view – we still have a Bret/Taker match for the World championship. I never like when the Rumble itself doesn’t end the pay per view.

The entrants, in order of appearance:

Hunter Hearst Helmsley

Henry Godwin

Bob Backlund

Jerry Lawler

Bob “Spark Plug” Holly

Mabel (accompanied by Mo) Mo remains at ringside – there doesn’t seem to be year to year consistency on whether seconds are allowed to remain at ringside.

Jake “the Snake” Roberts

Dory Funk Jr (Vince notes Terry was also invited but is watching the ppv from Germany)

Yokozuna

1-2-3 Kid (spends his first few minutes in the Rumble attempting to avoid an angry Razor)

Takao Omori (Vince actually mentions All-Japan by name!)

Savio Vega (formerly known as Kwang)

Vader (accompanied by Jim Cornette)

Doug Gilbert (Henning & Vince mention both USWA and Eddie Gilbert, Doug won a tournament in Memphis to qualify for the tournament)

Squat Team Member #1 (1/2 of the Headshrinkers)

Squat Team Member #2 (1/2 of the Headshrinkers)

Owen Hart

Shawn Michaels

Hakushi

Tatanka

Aldo Montoya

Diesel

Kama

“The Ringmaster” Steve Austin

Barry Horowitz

Fatu

Isaac Yankem, DDS

Marty Janetty

Davey Boy Smith

Duke Droese

 Winner: Shawn Michaels

Longest performance: Hunter Hearst Helmsley

First-time Rumblers: Hunter, Dory Funk Jr, 1-2-3 Kid, Omori, Vader, Doug Gilbert, the Headshrinkers, Hakushi, Aldo Montoya, Steve Austin, Barry Horowitz, Isaac Yankem

Surprise Entrants: Dory Funk, Omori, Doug Gilbert, the Headshrinkers

We have two “clear the ring without eliminating everyone” spots: Henry Godwin with his slop bucket (Backlund and Lawler are the recipients) and Jake Roberts using Damian (his snake) – Lawler gets covered with Damian. Was Lawler on someone’s shit list?

Vader does the “eliminate everyone” spot but as he was previously eliminated none of his eliminations count.

Lawler is the first participant in a Rumble to hide under the ring.

1996 is the first year all participants receive entrance music. Finally! A small thing but it adds to the presentation.

The pay-per-view ends with Bret Hart vs the Undertaker (accompanied by Paul Bearer).   Diesel causes a disqualification, costing Taker the match. The match was fine but I’m not a fan of Taker.

Interviews with Gorilla Monsoon, Shawn, Diesel, Vader, and Jim Cornette.
