Shadowclan

Taking the role of The Danes, Shadowclan resides within the pine barrens in the northernmost part of Clan Territory. They are bordered by a Thunderpath to the west and south, which separate them from Windclan’s and Thunderclan’s territories respectively. To the north resides a small but deep river with an abandoned farm on the other side. This river runs to the western part of Shadowclan territory, where it feeds into a large marshland.

Cats with Shadowclan blood can be easily recognized by their large, soft paws and bright eyes that stand out against their famously dark pelts. They are often described as aloof and secretive, with a deep distrust for any cat outside of the clans. However, in the years since Mudstar’s death, Houndstar has worked to better their relations with the other Clans by fostering strong foundations of trust between them.

[cloudberry-sims]

Thank you all for the time you took to vote on these polls! I had a lot of fun with them and we are almost done with the yeoman family 😊

Now for the final poll before I create the Willowthorn household!

#ts3 #cas #sims 3 cas #the sims 3 #banilla sims #Hopebury: Willowthorn

[strelles-universe]

*points the mic* Ankh, Ankh, tell them about the Shadows crafters

The world needs to know about the angry arts and craft group

Lmao hi @sparkvoid! Since you prodded this into existence, all of your designs for these crazies are paired with 'em. These are mostly pre-hybrid designs so keep that in mind!

So yeah everyone the Shadow Crafters are easily the most aggressive cats in Shadows (ignoring Quiveringheart who is one anxiety attack from passing out and Sunstone who has convinced her clan she was a kidnapped Thunder kit) for no other reason than chaos truthfully.

The oldest of the crafter are Thistlesight, Sunstone and Crowtalon. Crow and Sun are the same age and were apprenticed at the same time while Thistlesight came in I wanna say 3 moons into their training.

Sunstone

Everyone's Mom - she's warm, cuddling, protective and incredibly supportive. Most cats in her pride think it's a bit weird that she didn't become a Sitter but hey, whatever - at least she's contributing to her clan. She's overdramatic and heavily affectionate - this paired with her boisterous behavior and golden coat have led to a lot of cats assuming she has some form of Thunder blood in her.

Other Notes

She/They - Pansexual

Sunstone is the only girl in her litter of boys (Patchflicker, Hazepaw)

She joined the elders in Exile bc Viperstar straight up suspects her of being a Thunder Spy

Heavily ADHD coded

Though she and Crow were born the same season, she's the oldest

The relationship she has with Crow is ambiguous - just how they like it

Has threatened to run away and become a Thunder multiple times as an apprentice

---

Crowtalon

A Very Serious Man intent on just doing his job to the best of his ability and then moving on with his day. He's very skilled at blending into the background and is careful to watch which way the wind blows. He's even better at adjusting his stance if he doesn't like the scent on the breeze.

Other Notes

He/Him and a Bisexual

His claws grow superfast so he has to shorten them constantly

He and his twin sister Rookclaw get into prank-wars even as warriors

Fairly stoic and low-emotive, 100% inherited his mom's resting face

Cootpaw is not his child but the Shadows don't believe him - not when Coot and Thistlesight are insisting they are

Bonus - The Parents + The Sister

---

Thistlesight

A chaotic mischievous jokester. Being the youngest of the Crafter trio, they had the amusing situation of being 'the cool apprentice' who was friends with fully trained warriors while they were still in the apprentice's den. They can be pretty aggressive at any given moment but typically mean well and don't actually like hurting others. They also have a soft-spot for kits which is how they acquired Cootpaw

Other Notes

They/Them and Aromatic

Is extremely protective of Cootpaw and will Claw You for implying even for a second that they're not their mother

---

Then we have our freshest warriors Marrowfang, Willowthorn and Quiveringheart.These are the 'outcasts' of the pride so to speak with all three of them having some quality or trait that the Shadows disapprove of.

Quiveringheart

An easily frightened boy who'd look more at home in the Wind than in the Shadows. He takes after his father mostly in appearance though Saffronblister wouldn't be happy to hear about that considering his son a complete coward. Quiveringheart became a crafter as he's not fond of blood or violence in any fashion. Becoming an apprentice was the best thing that ever happened to him - he got closer to his denmates Marrowpaw and Willowpaw then received Sunstone as a mentor.

Other Notes

The only survivor of his litter who passed from Fading Kit Syndrome

He is terrified of his father and wishes Saffron loved him more

He's actually pure muscle, he just has a high metabolism

Has severe generalized anxiety from constant bullying

He thinks of Sunstone as his second mom

He loves frog and regularly adopts one to look after in Moonsoul's Pond

Bonus - The Parents + Baby Pic

---

Marrowfang

Kind of a defensive Tough Guy - despite being on team Arts and Crafts, Marrowfang likes to keep his combat skills sharp. Marrowfang - like his best friend - became a crafter to spite the whispers about his heritage (due to being mostly white) and to support Quiveringheart. He tries his hardest to be the best at everything he tries and has a tendency to overwork himself.

Other Notes

He/Him and a Heterosexual (gasp, they do exist)

His split ear is from Willowthorn because they wanted to 'look cool' as apprentices

Despite being a crafter, he will throw paws at the drop of a hat for any reason at all

He still wrestles with Willowthorn at random like an overgrown child

Bonus - The Parents + Baby Pic

---

Willowthorn

Easily the most bloodthirsty of the pack, Willowthorn is - personality-wise - everything the Shadows have come to regret. She loyal - to her friends, she's obedient - to her ex-mentor and she's full of faith for the Souls. She's always been incredibly scrappy and a complete prankster, well known for diving at the innocent tails of the cats around the pride. The day she left the nursery was a sigh of relief for all of the Sitters.

Other Notes

The split ear is from Marrowfang when the two wanted to be cool

The Shadows have no low-branched trees, she still sprints up until she can at least smack one

She's high energy and is caught wiggling on the border during border-watches by Thunder patrols

Marrowfang is her mate as adults and she greets him with a spar at random in the forest

Became a crafter explicitly to protect Quiveringheart

--

And the youngsters, little Cootpaw and Minkpaw. I'll admit these two haven't been developed nearly as much as the adults have been. They've got their origins and their general vibes, but that's kind of it.

---

Minkpaw

Chaotic and Energetic - manages to have obtained the proper average Shadow build being long-legged with wide paws, small ears and a shortened coat. They are currently Sunstone's apprentice and regulary burst into cackles at being apprenticed to the cat seen as a Thunder cat.

Other Notes

---

Cootpaw

Chaotic but in a chill way. Cootpaw is always down to fight back against the powers that chain a cat down albeit, they also appreciate doing so in a way that means that others are doing the hard part. Cootpaw was adopted by Thistlesight from a deceased loner and proceeded to work with her adoptive mother with bullying the entire pride into believing that Thistle was just hiding their pregnancy.

Other Notes

Literally only became a crafter bc she knew it would upset some cats

Is Minkpaw's biggest background supporter

Is the brains behind most of the current apprentice's pranksters

We all agree that poor Leafpaw (Cardinal's daughter) is Doomed by her

F@tT Fic Marathon: 1061-1080

hello hello! reading takes a long time when my day job doesn't have much downtime, but I persist in my project!

Sprout (fancomic) by bshmatthews - I'm forever intrigued about where this unfinished Fero comic is going! I suppose I could just read the work that inspire it, but I think for me the wondering based upon tags is more fun

reflexes, protection by fangirl_squee - fic based around Keith and Art's characters for the Marielda liveshow, I'm linking and recommending chapter 2 specifically because I like the justification it gave to why Cup was dressed as Samot

Regret, Breathing by ERNest - yes!! Maelgwyn and time weirdness and regret! i don't really know what is happening in this but goddamnit that's the way i like it!

data will arrive by galaxyowl - a list of data that succesfful got transmitted after one of Fourteen Fifteen's death

Nature As Idealized By An Artist At Large by hollyhock (willowthorn) - Modern AU Grand Mag/Echo, this is a favorite of mine! one of those "dang i wish there was more of this" fics for me. I really Grand the former gallery artist current trucker, and him falling in love with art again through hiking and falling in love with Echo is just excellent

I was tagged by @majorbaby. Thank you and sorry if this is more than you wanted to know!

Last song: Eva Cassidy - Over the Rainbow ❤️

Currently watching: La Cage aux Folles (1978) Something French AND gay? Sign me up!

Currently reading: The Tragic Secret Life of Jayne Mansfield by Raymond Strait (damn you, Karina Longworth! Her podcast, You Must Remember This, is so good that it makes me get interested in things I would not usually care about. This book is only 200 pages long but Jayne Mansfield was such a nightmarish person that it seems to drag on forever. A more accurate title would be something like A Series of Seedy Events.)

Current obsession: Two words - Rock Hudson. A vastly underrated actor, going through his filmography I’ve discovered gems that I’ll treasure forever, and I’ve finally started reading about the AIDS epidemic - I bought And The Band Played On and How to Survive a Plague almost at the same time as a biography about him, All That Heaven Allows. It’s not that I’ve been intentionally avoiding it, but I knew it would be painful, so I wanted to take my time and be in the right state of mind to absorb everything. Also, he was just such a handsome man that, what the hell - a girl can dream :)

I tag @russiansappho @athena-willowthorne @hypotheticalworld @sparklejamesysparkle @moiroloi @thebreakfastgenie @downwiththebad @frogeye-pierce @tchaikennugget and anyone who wants to do it. If you don't, no problem!

[strelles-universe]

who are some of the ocs in the allegiance? also any fun facts you can share about this au?

There are a lot of OCs in Strelles to try to prevent incest and also to balance out the series of disasters that happen! Seriously, Strelles had a lot of them such as the Moor Massacre, The Plagues and the Famine. If I didn't plump up the Empire's ranks a little, I would be seriously struggling to make relationships work lmao

All of the Fenn Crafters are OCs! Quiveringheart, Marrowfang, Sunstone, Thistlesight, Crowtalon and Willowthorn! If you have questions about them, feel free to ask they are easily the most fleshed out background characters.

Other OCs are Chimepaw and Jinglepaw! They're Heatherdream (Morningflower's)'s adopted twins and Gorsepaw's little siblings because she deserved to have something nice.

There's also Asterlichen - he's Stoneswipe's adoptive son named after his mother and sister simultaneously and Grassfeather, Osierstream (Silverstream)'s foster sister who is a major antagonist.

As for fun facts about the AU:

I almost didn't write this first arc! Initially this story was going to start all the way in the 3rd arc with the Power of Three but I'm glad I didn't. Gave me more time to think about them and gave me some plot-lines for 'em.

Pokemon powers were the main idea behind this world at some point but somehow they became less important? I'm not entirely sure how that happened tbh

This version of strelles is like the 5th iteration of it

I'm a plantser to the truest degree so any detail can change at any moment - and some of the biggest plot points I made happen at the very last second!

Rise of the Vicious Princess - C.J. Redwine

Princess Charis Willowthorn is the dutiful sword of Calera. Raised to be ruthless and cunning, her only goal is to hold her war-torn kingdom together long enough to find a path toward peace with their ancient foe, Montevallo, even if the cost is her own heart. When violence erupts in the castle itself and an unseen enemy begins sinking Calera’s ships, Charis realizes a threat much greater than Montevallo is coming for her people. So she forms a plan. By day, she is Calera’s formidable princess intent on forging an alliance with Montevallo. By night, she disguises herself as a smuggler and roams the sea with a trusted group of loyalists, hunting for their new enemies. And through it all, there’s the one boy she can’t have—who guards her life but steals her heart. But her enemies are much closer than Charis realizes, and her heart isn’t the only thing she has left to lose.
