why did you choose to kill Asphodelpaw specifically and not any of the other apprentices? not saying that any of them deserved to die more, but I think it's really interesting that you decided to kill any of the apprentices at all, and deciding who to kill must've been really difficult

There's a lot I can't say because of spoiler reasons. But do believe that I tried very hard to get any other character to work, and they wouldn't. It's like a story is a gear machine, or a Rube Goldberg... and all the characters are cogs in it. Asphodelpaw was the only cog that fit into that place. I loved drawing her, I loved her character, I loved writing her, but there wasn't another option within this story's narrative.

And yes, once I knew the whole scope of the story, I knew Asphodelpaw was going to be killed by Rainhaze. I actually have a bit of a flashbulb memory - I think it was September or October of 2022, when I was walking home and the pieces just clicked together in my mind. I felt so evil.

Jade: Eternity

Lily: Rebirth

Moss: Growth/abundance

I know that naming the Lost Clans this was probably unintentional, but I personally like the interpretation that these names denote Barrenclan's cycle and their eventual release from it

Ahh that's fun! I pretty much just wanted to give all four Clans flower/plant names, but I really like this take on it.

also another question — who is the founder/is there a founder of barrenclan/roseclan?

Haha, no I don't. They are not important to the story in the slightest, and I've got way too much to work on otherwise to design three more leaders. I could give em names, though, and maybe if someone reminds me in the future I'll draw them.

LilyClan - Mushroomstar, MossClan - Sharpstar, JadeClan - Waterstar

and it's for 4 reasons,

1) i didnt like how i drew all of the characters.. i tried too hard to make them all have a different artstyle and it just turned out badly imo

2) ..i actually had no plot and had no idea how to continue the series + i kinda got burnt out and just couldn't draw for a bit

3) i hated how there were barely any background characters that could've contributed to the plot. There's Ivystar (the leader before Butterstar, also the Starclan spirit), Pebbleshadow (the dark blue cat that looks up at Rosemarylake during her flashback), Amberbelly (the golden she-cat during the rose&butter monarchy argument), and that's about it. Every other cat is plot relevant. (there also were a handful of relatives but they aren't even mentioned)

4) One side plot was supposed to be the fact Lilyclan is a monarchy, and I mentioned it once. Rosemarylake would've gone into more detail during the argument, and Tallfrost originally would've admitted he never thought about the future because his sister is the leader and was always showered in attention.

what am I gonna do now? Probably character cards and making a actually cohesive plot that i can follow.

(the new plot is gonna happen after the infection starts, the previous plot is kinda retconned now..)

(oh and um school is happening soon so i mightbe even less active... whoops...)

(as a silly hint Meadowlight might be more active in the new plot...)

so this is a blog for a stupid clan comic... it isnt based off clangen like the other cool ones.. i am making like half of this on the spot..

my drawings suck, but it's ok. i wanna focus on plot. maybe it'll randomly change halfway through. i dont know. i would say it's based off eggfish (which it halfly is..) but that just feels weird considering how low effort this actually is.

this is my first time doing a actual blog for a series/comic so please dont bully me.. i'll admit this is low effort, i'll revamp it in the future when/if i have motivation.

the DNI for this is basic.. no homophobes, transphobes, racists, etc.

please stay cool and safe, drop a ask if you're invested..

also sorry to anyone that made a clan named lilyclan, i didn't do a background check and i just thought since the lilyclan tag was avaible and unused, i thought i could use it.... im not gatekeeping anything on this page so go wild.

blog-specific tags are #lilyclan (anything relating to the series), #notaboutlilyclan (mod notes or updates), and #lilyasks (any asks about lilyclan)

also there will just be tags to get more exposure to this.. and ive seen other waca au blogs use the character names as tags but i already feel a little weird considering there's another blog named lilyclan..

(there‘s another kit but I can‘t draw kits very well as you might see with Hailkit)
