Description I work so hard for RiverClan. I should put this effort into ThunderClan too

Anyway, here is my finished family tree guide for RiverClan. This was mostly just for me to keep track, but I figure my clan-mates should be able to reference it too (I hope you can make out the names and whatnot). RiverClanners, if you have any questions about who is who or markings and genetics on any of these guys, let me know. I am very loose with cat genetics though, I know the restrictions, but I will often let them slide for fun character designs. There are some rogues and former RiverClan cats (mostly up in the right corner) that can be referenced if you have a rogue or loner to add later and you want them to be RiverClan blood.

The clan was split when Goldenpelt formed DarkClan. Many RiverClan cats followed him and after DarkClan was disbanded, they took on the lives of rogues, loners, kittypets... They couldn't show their faces in RiverClan again because they were ashamed or scared. Many of those cats had kits and when the lake territories were burned, those kits followed the clans to the Endless Storm Place to join the clan of their mothers or fathers. Cats like Drizzlewhisker, Fintail, Spottypelt and Tempestfur always loved the idea of RiverClan, so they showed their loyalty and were taken in by Swiftstar and his successor Talonstar over the seasons. Their mixed blood contributed to the health of the clan.

Thus, you get cats like Greypelt (the current deputy). His parents were Tempest and Drizzle; Drizzlewhisker was the son of Ferneyes (who left the clans with her rogue mate, Buzzard) and Tempestfur is the daughter of rogues, Pool and Conner. Pool was actually the daughter of Poolstar and Gillheart; Gillheart left the clan when her mate died as she did not want to live under Rainstar and she look her one kit with her.

Other bloodlines are less developed, but it would get really complicated if you go too far back.

The coloring on this piece is very simple, just enough for me to keep track because I am so visual. I hope it helps StarClanCats-Club as well.

I hope to do one for ThunderClan and possibly the other two as well, but it was a lot of work and took upwards of 6 hours to complete, so that prospect is unlikely...

Very nice! Β It's amazing how many characters we've come up with over the years. Β Here's to even more in the future!

Indeed! Let's make the most interesting, in depth warriors characters ever ^^

Wow! They all look great! I see you made Bubblespot pretty much like I said she might be. ^^ She's cute. It's sad she's dead.

Just a question... Did you color Crescent with lighter colored spots/stripes? Cause I did end up making that darker spots/stripes. It's a bit hard to tell though with the size of the photo. Just thought I would tell you for future reference.

And yay for Watermist having a sister! They really have pretty similar personalities now that I think about it... I'm sure they're good supports for one another, even if they're not very chatty.

Lol. Most of my pieces take me at least 4 hours, so 6+ hours seems like very little... I'm not quite at your same skill level I guess. But I'm getting there!

I drew Bubble full size with Newt, but haven't colored it yet (i'm sure you saw it on twitter). Her spots will be kinda Shalepaw-like or Leopardstar-like, but in a harlequin pattern i figure.

Yeah, it was too small to do accurately, perhaps I should have used black for Crescent's stripes... A lot of them have less detail than i would like because of the tiny size (they are each about an inch or less long). I want to draw her with Tidepaw at some point, so yeah. They'll be cute (I love their platonic relationship) and I can make an accurate portrayal of her. ^^

And yeah, maybe a little smile from Watermist here and there helps Turtlebrook to stay happy. I see her as a bit dismissive and almost sad that she didn't get a warrior's life. Perhaps she is proud that her sister is so important to the clan, but also envies her a bit? I'll have to flesh her out a bit more.

You are getting there for sure! I love the realism you do.
I'm really fast at doing what i know

I definitely didn't see that until you mentioned it, but I love it!

It was more like it was hard to tell if her base coat was the stripes or if the stripes were the stripes lol. I see it better now. ^^

Omg, their platonic relationship is just the best in my opinion. They are so cute with it, too! And then it pulls on Jackdaw's little heartstrings and it's probably the most perfect friendship we have ever made. Crescentpaw really needed a friend, too, so Tidepaw reminds her to find joy in life. I think i especially will enjoy how everyone assumes they are mates when they make it to warriorhood. They'll still probably favor going on patrols with one another and collecting sea shells together.

I'm not sure if Turtlebrook strikes me as the envious type... But I could also play that way. I could see when Watermist complains about Jackdaw, Turtlebrook might say she'd tear him a part if she was a warrior. Watermist would then likely be say "but you have the perfect apprentice here as a medicine cat. And no chance you'd have to put up with such lazy apprentices." Idk. We'll figure it out together before long. ^^

They are. We have had this story going for years and years now, so we have quite a few generations.
