Ooc- what was Shadestar's warrior name in-game? :3c
Shadefoot! I imagine if things had turned out differently, she would have been given her suffix for her stealth
i had half a mind to make sega look like sonic but we already got shadestar with wild fur

Hello!
I'm Moth (she/her) and this blog is dedicated to my insane ramblings of cats on a coastline. This master post will hold all the links and info related to anything TidalClan. Updates are currently: Unscheduled but aiming for once a week
Please do not spam-like or spam-reblog my posts. You will be blocked.
This blog may include distressing themes
Blood and Injury
Illnesses
Animal harm/death
Child/Kit death
War
#tidalclan: master tag, all tidalclan posts can be found here #tidalclan moons: all moons relating to tidalclan #tidalclan ooc: posts related to tidalclan but not in character #tidalclan asks: any asks posts related to characters or author #tidalclan lore: any and all lore
I do want to try and aim for a coherent story, but these are the general rules in place that will help shape it.
Mass extinction events is on. If a cat dies, they are dead for good.
In addition to the above rule, if a cat needs to die for plot reasons, they are gonna.
Most Patrols are going to depend on the Patrol Traits. For example, if a patrol of three comes across a loner and the traits are positive (ex. loving, charismatic, etc.), they will proceed. However, if the traits are majority negative (ex. cold, bloodthirsty, etc.), they will aggravate. This rule may be bent at times
Cheating is on until I decide otherwise, whether due to clan size or relationship stuff
Unknown second parent is on, same behaviors as the rule above.
No romance between former mentors and first cousins. We're not ThunderClan here
Not every cat will be shown unless their event is important.
yippee for Coldcrash!! also...damn, the meteorite turned out good. thanks to everyone who voted for the meteorite to be our phoneline to starclan!
funfacts: Mistlethunder is RumbleClan's medicine cat and Mistfuzz is CycloneClan's medicine cat. Mistfuzz is the older cat, being 110 moons, and thus gave Coldpaw her name.

So we’re going with the meteor crash site! Cant wait to try drawing this. Gonna change the name to “Star’s Rest” though, sounds prettier (thank you to my boyfriend for that one)
not me waiting for this specific patrol prompt to pop up so i can make this specific lore post

larchmask and tidefur aren't the founders but i mean im not gonna leave em out. this is the clan at around moon 10, which is probably gonna be posted tomorrow
it has indeed been months but finally FINALLY, after all the crap 2024 put me through, im gonna push to make more of tidalclan
dont expect anything scheduled as stuff is still calming down but im doing better and gonna try and draw more ^^

ello ya'll it's been a while since the last TidalClan update. Unfortunately, my work life and my personal life have clashed together and I haven't found a lot of time to continue the Moons. I don't have any plans to discontinue TidalClan (I'm up to Moon 25!), but updates will likely be sporadic and not entirely scheduled like I initially wanted them to be. This is just better for me as to not feel pressured by something I wanna take my time with and enjoy. So to fans of TidalClan, you'll get something soon. Moon 10 is gonna be fun ^^
And I didn't forget about the Dark Forest Challenge Poll I made a while back...
I've already begun planning out the settings and background characters of my Dark Forest Challenge run. I will be following the rules outlined here. @/gray-thistleclan was a huge inspiration for this, so please give them and their series a follow. ^^ The blog isn't up yet, but here is a sneak peek of the upcoming map!
I'm looking forward to starting this ClanGen run and I hope everyone is looking forward to it too! But for now, I'll see you all next time!
hnnng i don't like the new interface either tbh...
I updated Clangen with the new fresh-kill system but I really don't know how to feel about it yet. I'm not sure if I will just ignore it as I started TidalClan before the update or just slowly somehow integrate it if things like starvation really affect the plot. I may have to include it for my upcoming Dark Forest Challenge run (In progress and woo boy).
a lil WIP of Moon 10 - wonder what they're chattin about
AWWWAAAAHHH!!! Wittle Coldpaw! Thank you so much!
A little Coldpaw!!! Cause I love her. Holds her up in my arms. For @tidalclan !!! Go check them out!!!!
New page will be up tomorrow!
ive been hit hard with art block so i combat it with fanart of kitties from clangen blogs i follow and enjoy ^^ All kitties pictured belong to their respective owners Rainface - @cats-of-rainclan Luckkit - @lotusclans-luck Heronstar - @juniper-clan Littlestar - @littlebloomclan Goldshine - @aphidclan-clangen also trying out a new brush hehehe
heavily debating on having a side-clangen-blog using the Dark Forest Challenge rules... Would anyone be interested in that? I will say that updates would be a bit slower between tidalclan and the dark-forest blog but if no one minds that then why not right
MORE leaders (or adjacent) from clangen blogs i follow!

did you have to make up the prophecy in moon four, or did it auto-generate?
I made it up myself! I haven' t gotten any auto-generated prophecies. I don't know if that's a Dev ClanGen thing (I'm playing the latest version of the public build). But I am genuinely curious about them. I haven't had one show up so I'm assuming it's a Dev thing.
I'm taking some time to make moon 10 so im gonna be postin some questions and maybe some memes plus
Another one! She's a pretty one too ^^
Also our first injury! Yay(?)
Edit: pretty big jump in designs after this point, new refs can be found here

larchmask seems to be fitting in well. although coldpaw needs to learn that larchmask can interact with everyone else
she'll grow out of it
also, our first in-person introduction to one of the other clans! They are real as I’m playing the other Clans at the same time for some spice

isn’t it a bit weird that coldpaws only 10 moons old and is having a romance with a 24 moon old warrior? thats like a 15 year old crushing on someone in their 20s. is this only a one sided crush…? i don’t ask this to be rude, im just genuinely concerned
at that moment in time, it’s purely a first-time, one-sided crush. i was a bit on the fence about it too, but i can say with confidence that it does work itself out. trust me when i say nothing uncomfortable will be happening between coldpaw and larchmask as of now.
in a technical sense, being moons into the future (i’m at moon 20 right now), i can say the situation works out in its own way. thanks to your concern, i will try and make sure that this is reflected in a respectful tone. Writing this I’m kind of thinking about Firepaw’s initial one-sided crush on Spottedleaf…
in a lore sense, i like to think this isn’t just a crush, but also a “oh my gosh, finally someone else to talk to” kind of situation. coldpaw only had shadestar and lightchaser to rely on for moons so a new face is sure to be popular. plus, i am trying to let her “childish” trait show a bit with more exaggerated emotions and expressions.
i can say in confidence though that coldpaw will be alright and learn better as she goes on. thank you for your concern, its these kinds of questions that will help me make a better story with these characters and a better experience for the readers enjoying them ^^
Everyone's havin a good time!
Well, cept the rogue.

so~ Coldplay u got a crush on the new girl how’s that going for ya?
Denial is a river in Egypt-
Also who wants a petition made to make Coldpaw’s full name to Coldplay?
lightchaser what exactly were you arguing about
a new character has entered the arena!
no finally you have no idea how happy i was to get a new character in. it seems like a short time only 6 moons but still, survival kinda requires new blood

repost because i messed up on one of the lore details - really it was just lightpaw's warrior name but it's important
