I Drew A Mountain

Can I ask what Ravenheart's sort of story and personality is? Does he have a connection to Ashcloud?

YEAH :D i welcome any distraction from school assignments

Ravenheart founded Alpine, he was guided by a much older StarClan cat to do so (who has now disappeared, funny). He was leader (though didn't take the suffix 'star', that came in after his death) and was close friends with Night. I wouldn't say he was really friends with Ashcloud, she was just his medic and therefore an official point of reference with StarClan later on, as Peace-Keepers had not yet been introduced.

in early SL, Raven is not on starclan's council, he mostly withdrew from authoritative positions straight away after his death, pretty shocked by supposedly being politically assassinated by his best friend. So he's mostly standing by watching StarClan get pretty corrupt. he sort of views morality in a very direct, certain way, like this is Good and this is Bad. maybe i can see what starclan's become but what's the alternative? rewarding murder?

Raven takes leadership of starclan after its fall (mostly because most of starclan's ranks begin to agree with his ideas of unity over war/divisions etc)

Ash doesn't like it, she thinks StarClan should take a much more violent approach to defeating the rebellion, like an all-out war. Raven, instead, offers Night and the dark forest a full pardon (im sure that won't backfire at all)

drew him looking extra pathetic

alternatively, has being in silverpelt warped your perception of time? you feel like you're same as you've always been, but suddenly you're back in the world of the living and the entire world context has changed. youre a living piece of their ancient history. they speak a different language. you feel like no time has passed at all but suddenly you're unable to ever be just a living cat again because you've been dead 500 years. forget being yourself again, can you even be a person (cat) again?

sometimes i feel really stuck on how to characterise characters like Night and other starclan cats who have been dead for so long because i cant really comprehend how exactly that would change you. fading isnt a thing in this universe. youve been dead for centuries. tiny little things in life havent been relevant for that long because youve forgotten what being alive was.

while i dont characterise my starclan as god-like figures the oldest of them certainly aren't just little cats. WHAT ARE THEY??

I’ve been captivated by his wounded animal swag, and tendency to react to well intentioned kindness with fearful aggression

Me when characters are so blinded by hate and anger and revenge that they destroy themselves pursuing this one goal in the process

redesigned Rainpaw! :]

I think this design works better, this way he looks more obviously related to both silent and talon (sister and brother), and there’s around 6 bits of this design that foreshadow/hint to different things :] which I think is neat

i feel nothing when finch just uses night's name in her head, but when she uses possessive pronouns for her i will cry vomit die roll around on the floor in agony etc
