#oc clans

Because we are co-writing this, the nature of the formatting is a little different. We each have decided to take on one of the two main pov’s each. I, @silversunshine2022 will be writing anything taking place in the “desert clans” as those were my idea and most of those are my characters (minus our rebellious tom named Palepaw, and a few other minor characters). Because of this, my main pov is going to be one of our main characters, a spunky she-cat named Irispaw. @blogofcass is writing everything that happens in the pov that takes place in the canon clans as those are mostly her characters and her story ideas, minus a few minor characters. She will be writing the pov of our male main character, the anxious and not-yet-confident apprentice, Branchpaw.

We both are having a lot of fun planning this fic and hope you all enjoy reading it!!

Helmets for Mandos who Aren’t Goddamn Humans Pt.5

- Kaleesh (Kshai - Clan Vastiin)

- Ithorian (Tuo Dassie - Clan Stral)

- Toydarian (Cyare’ava - Clan Solusulos)

The higher up cats up Hawthornclan!

Yeah- me and my friends came up with the names, like Fennelstorm isn’t mine but I think other then him, there’s one more that isn’t mine lol.

Evil cats btw. The black markings are the wounds that either killed them or were open when they died. I do need to re-do Garlicface but eh- don’t mind that ear are all on paper- I of course am going to edit these on IBSPAINT. I just wanted to show off my evil clan upper Clanmates. Next are the older warriors. Which ima say now. These cats are worse then Brokenstar so be prepared to be amazed at how small this clan is and how little there is of young cats due to dying in battle. Their neighboring clans are Snowclan and Willowclan.

Willowclan’s territory is a bunch of oaks and willows, and they have a river that comes from Snowclan that’s runs through their territory, right next to their camp actually.

Hawthornclan is fully evil. It’s been sense the second leader just started a chain of bloodthirsty cats.

Mushroomstar is the WORST leader of them all though. Ima just say it now. He’s the w o r s t. And cares little about anything. The only thing he cares about is his mate and kits. Though treats his mates more like trash. Yeah this guy has a very odd way of showing his love. Also, he did have a mate named Volefrost, but realized she was using him so killed her :) Yeah. To add to that their kits had just became apprentices. Yeah. Shrewpaw, Hawkpaw, Darkpaw and Icepaw definitely were not suspicious of it at ALL.

Anyways- Fennelstorm isn’t as unhinged as Mushroomstar. He just follows the rules and doesn’t get in anyones way so that’s why he’s deputy. His character isn’t much explored and he never has kits. So yeah.

Garlicface is also another unexplored cat. He’s actually pretty young so he does end up having kits with a cat named Summerflame. (meds can have kits in my clans.) and so yeah. But he isn’t very close with them.

Causes of death:

Mushroomstar- His mate Lambcry and her half sister Hollyblaze-

Fennelstorm- Wolves

Garlicface- Wolves

(A lot of the cats die from wolves because wolves invaded the clan territory and mostly lived in the heavy dense pine forest where Hawthornclan lived so most Hawthornclan cats ended up dying- fun)

Blaze (scarred tortoiseshell, friend’s oc) and Fir (silver and tan tabby, mine).

Ursa Snowypeak of JaggedClan! (friend’s oc, my art)

first of all, be sure that the entirety of your OC clan is not defined as ‘not-Uchiha/Senju/Uzumaki’. that’s just lazy characterization.

having clans and kekkei genkai lost to history is absolutely ok. but be sure to justify why they were forgotten / lost, as ‘secretive technique’ does not necessarily mean ‘unknown clan’. a clan can be famous for its secrecy, but an unknown clan is not famous for anything.

also, the situation you presented is definitely better than ‘secret clan rises to power’, but be careful in balancing the internal logic of your clan. If they are secretive about their techniques, why on earth would they go around proclaiming their name? if they’re secret, and nearly forgotten, that would be the results of decades of under-the-radar activity. it’s illogical to think that elders would teach the children ‘we are famous’ when in fact everyone else is like ‘lol who?’ - the only explanation for that behaviour is that those who are in charge of the clan’s awareness of the outside world are - sorry - pompous pricks.

otherwise the idea is good.
