MOON 11 (Silver Box Prelude)

<< FIRST | < PREVIOUS |

Shiverpaw and Windfur go to the Half-Moon Dome. Shiverpaw feels like she has more questions tahn answers as of late, and tries to appeal to StarClan for answers. She wakes from her dream to the sound of static.

(Shiverpaw, medicine cat apprentice, female, 11 moons. Loving.) (Icypaw, StarClan cat, male. Bloodthirsty.) ---

Shiverpaw and Windfur were silent as they made their way to the Half-Moon Dome.

She tried to push her encounter with Endless out of her mind, but she just couldn't.

Endless refused to tell her what she was attacked by. But it must have been some kind of…Deep Root entity. The smell, however faint, still came off of her. It could've been an infected predator, but the gash…the gash was one, singular cut. If it was a fox, or a badger, or even just a simple raccoon, there would have been teeth marks, or claw wounds.

And…the trance.

It became easier for her to recognize when they were happening. When she was younger, it was easy for her to dismiss the tug at the corner of her mind - she would simply feel a paw, or hear a voice, and feel confused when cats would ask if she's alright. She'd never understand why they seemed concerned.

When she felt…something else engulf her, that evening trapped in the blizzard, she knew she had to start paying closer attention to subtle tells and physical cues her body gave.

Looking into Endless' eyes triggered that pull. She didn't remember what happened, but she knew it had happened, and she didn't know why. It couldn't have been for no reason.

But part of her was scared. She was scared to find that something was wrong with her. Or that she hadn't truly healed Endless. That fear must have manifested as she pressed her head against the Half-Moon Dome that night.

Icypaw greeted her calmly. She had gotten to know the once-stranger with time. He was Hopechase's lost sibling. He was fierce, and calculated. He never spoke about how he died. She never bothered to press it.

She was older than him by a moon now. He would continue to stay in the shape he's in. She would continue to grow and age.

"You're distracted," he pointed out plainly.

Shiverpaw blinked, fatigue glazing her expression. "I'm sorry."

"Don't be. Ask, but keep in mind I might not be able to answer you." 

Shiverpaw sighed and stared at her paws. Well…the Half-Moon Dome was the only time that StarClan could visit her. Now was as good a time as any. "There's…a cat that I helped heal at the border a few days ago."

Icypaw's green eyes flickered with intent. He nodded. "We saw."

Shiverpaw's ear twitched. She wondered how much StarClan could see and hear. She never asked. "...She didn't say what attacked her."

"Unfortunately, we don't know either," Icypaw confessed, pawing at the starry grasses beneath him. "We…were preoccupied that night. I'm sorry."

The way Icypaw said it made Shiverpaw swallow down her nervousness. Deflecting the Iris. Of course. That must take more energy than she could ever fathom.

"Some cats in StarClan said you shouldn't have wasted your winter stash on a stranger," Icypaw scoffed. "To crowfood with them. I think you did the right thing."

Shiverpaw suppressed a purr of dry amusement. It was odd, how some cats, even in the afterlife, still held onto their beliefs and faith. Were StarClan much like ForestClan, in that regard? The question of whether StarClan noticed her trances like her clanmates did rested in front of her like a heavy stone. She stared at the stars beneath her feet.

"One more warning - with newleaf approaching, we've traced the winds and movement of the clouds. You might get some freezing rain in the next moon."

Shiverpaw's tail twitched quizzically.

"Oh, right, you've never experienced that before. Basically, the skies are warm, so it rains. But the air closer to the earth is cold, so the water freezes on its surface. Makes it dangerous to navigate," Icypaw explained.

"Okay…thank you," Shiverpaw sighed.

"Anything else on your mind before you wake?"

"...Maybe?" Shiverpaw said hesitantly. "I've…been experiencing strange things. There's periods of time where I'll sense something, and the next moment, someone would ask if I'm fine. It's like I go into a…a trance, or something."

Icypaw stood still.

"Does StarClan know why this happens?"

Shiverpaw raised her head to stare at the StarClan apprentice. The anticipation weighed between them, and the longer Icypaw delayed his answer, the more agitated Shiverpaw felt. Surely, StarClan had an answer. Surely they knew, right?

…They had to. StarClan, please, they just…

Before Shiverpaw could retort, Icypaw's expression suddenly shifted into abrupt dread, his ears swivelling up to listen to something. His fur stood on end.

"I-Icypaw?" Shiverpaw stammered.

"I'm sorry. This is such bad timing - foxdung," Icypaw hissed. His eyes darted around. "We don't know. I-I'm sorry, we're still trying to place the pieces. But you're safe, okay? What happens to you - it...it doesn't branch outwards. Only inwards. You receive, but you can't send."

"What?" Shiverpaw blurted, confused and afraid, but Icypaw only continued with increasing urgency.

"L-Listen. It's going to be okay. It has to be. But you have to wake up." Icypaw suddenly turned to look behind him, as though something would sneak up on him. Shiverpaw felt her fur stand on end.

He was like this the first moon she met him. And then…

"No. Please. Don't," Shiverpaw pleaded. She didn't want this. Not again. She didn't.

"Please," Icypaw looked back at Shiverpaw, his green eyes flickering. "Please be brave. It cannot hurt you. Not under the Dome. Please."

Shiverpaw felt her heart racing. She was taken aback by the sudden wave of sorrow that haunted Icypaw's starry eyes.

"Please." Icypaw repeated, his voice strained. His age was suddenly reflected in his expression, young, and hurt. "He...he was just a cat."

Darkness swallowed her vision before she could respond. When she felt the cold floor of the bunker, the constant, trickling sound she had heard five moons prior invaded her ears once again. It was like a violent storm, wrapped in lightning. The smell of blood and wet earth invaded her nostrils again.

She kept her eyes closed. She didn't want to open them. She didn't want to see it. Not again. Not again. She just couldn't.

Please, be brave. It cannot hurt you. Not under the Dome.

Shiverpaw suppressed a pitiful whine. It was hard. It was so, so hard to be brave.

He was just a cat.

Was. Now he was not, and he was terrifying.

Shiverpaw forced herself to rake her claws on the stone beneath her. She listened to the static of the Silver Box. She heard Windfur still breathing deeply in his sleep.

She forced herself to her feet, and her eyes peered open to stare at the floor.

Would…would the beings beyond StarClan take her voice again? She trembled as she forced herself to pad closer to the Silver Box. She didn't look at the crack in the wall. Not yet. She couldn't hear it. It was soundless in its existence. But it was there. She knew it was there.

She stared at the Silver Box.

Shiverpaw closed her eyes. She took a deep breath, and steeled herself. She didn't know…what the beings beyond StarClan were. Not truly. The first time they came to her, they used her voice to speak to…to Rootgrove. That's what the monster was called. She felt hollow, and empty. She was frightened by it. But…but some of them were kind to her younger self. They called her "little one". They expressed gratitude. Maybe…maybe they didn't know how badly they made her feel. That was possible, right?

And…during the blizzard. She was desperate. She called for help. It felt like she was floundering in an ocean, and begging for the smallest scrap of debris to cling to. She didn't…genuinely expect anything to answer.

But they did. And…she didn't feel hollow for long. She was given comfort. She…could pick up on faint words, like solutions begging to be heard.

Maybe…maybe they were on her side. Maybe they were trying to help her. At least, when she felt them, she could still remember what happened to her.

The last time they were here…they tried to pry answers from him. They weren't afraid of Rootgrove. It was as though he knew things that they didn't.

…Rootgrove did house a Woodcrawler���didn't he? Yes. Shiverpaw bristled at the memory. It tried to attack her. The…the Half-Moon Dome repelled it. But he was bound to it. Doomed to follow it in its burrows.

An epiphany beamed into her like sunlight. Still shaking, she whispered out loud.

"I…I want to know…what attacked Endless." She swallowed. Part of her felt stupid. What, exactly, was listening? "That's...that's a simple question. Right? Maybe he doesn't know. But…I just…want to try. If...if you can ask...then...that's all I want." She felt foolish.

Static noise continued to fill the absence of her voice.

She took a deep breath. Did she even have a choice?

The thought of Windfur waking up and seeing Rootgrove at the wall filled her with a surprising amount of dread. She...she didn't want him here when Windfur woke up. She really, really didn't.

She took her gaze to the crack in the wall.

She felt the tug at the back of her mind. She felt eager, but steady intent radiating from the air around her. This was it. She braced herself for the hollow feeling.

They won't hurt me.

She latched onto that blind faith, and made the leap.

Post-Oscars blathering.

-Host Conan O'Brien had treats for attendees.

-I felt bad for Jeremy Strong who lost out on Best Supporting for his incredible job as Roy Cohn in THE APPRENTICE. But I had far greater sympathy for the poor dog during the SNL 50th skit who just wanted petting from Adam Driver's huge paws. I mean, I yearn for Anora/Ani and Igor

but the dog really yearned for those huge mitts.

-Rumoured divorcé Dan Stevens made the rounds with Natasha Lyonne, Jodie Turner-Smith, Hari Neff and his CUCKOO costar Hunter Schafer. I'm hoping he sloppily made out with Hunter and Hari.

He has great taste, ladies.

-Oscars night was a time for reunions

Last year Best Actor winner Cillian Murphy was able to present to his one-time PEAKY BLINDERS costar Adam Brody.

Cillian was so happy to escape the press line and just present!

Little did he know that Brody would give the longest speech in Oscar history.

At least you looked good, Cillian.

GHOST costars Whoopi Goldberg and Demi Moore.

THE SOCIAL NETWORK costars Andrew Garfield and Jesse Eisenberg.

Garfield and rumoured paramour Monica Barbaro afterwards.

THE LITTLE MERMAID's Halle Bailey and Jonah Hauer-King.

CONCLAVE's Carlos Dietz with Isabella Rossellini (and Laura Dern).

Oscar presenters WHEN HARRY MET SALLY costars Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan.

Brady Corbett and his THE BRUTALIST composer Daniel Blumberg.

Blumberg looking like the twin cousin of ANORA's Yura Borisov.

Isabella Rossellini reuniting with her potion prop from DEATH BECOMES HER.

Isabella Rossellini is a "nepo" baby, but here are some of the latest scions.

Milo Manheim - Son of Camryn, star of Paramount+'s SCHOOL SPIRITS.

Charlie Foster - Son of Jodie Foster. He will appear in the upcoming Amazon Prime series SCARPETTA starring classic nepo baby Jamie Lee Curtis and Nicole Kidman.

Kidman recently worked with the daughter of her MOULIN ROUGE costar Ewan McGregor in the film BABYGIRL. Esther McGregor played Kidman's oldest daughter. Esther can also be seen in Pedro Almodovar's THE ROOM NEXT DOOR.

THE WHITE LOTUS S3 star Sam Nivola (son of Alessandro (The Brutalist) and Emily Mortimer (Paddington in Peru). He is dating Iris Apatow (daughter of Judd and Leslie Mann). Sam and his sister May were also in Noah Baumbach's WHITE NOISE playing the children of Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig; and Sam played son of Bradley Cooper's Leonard Bernstein in MAESTRO (which also starred Maya Hawke, son of Ethan and Uma Thurman).

There's also Asa Germann of Amazon Prime Video's GEN V (son of Gregg German (Grey's Anatomy, Ally McBeal). The series also featured Patrick Schwarzeneggar.

A sure entry to the entertainment industry for many a celebrity child is modeling. That's the path Deva Cassel (the eldest daughter of Vincent Cassel (who has just had his latest child; a boy, with partner Narah Baptista) and Monica Bellucci) forged after years of spending time with her mother on photo shoots.

Now she is acting. She can be currently be seen Netflix's IL GATTOPARDO/ THE LEOPARD; a six-part adaptation of the classic Italian novel, which was made into a three-hour film starring Burt Lancaster.

Can you tell us more about Molly?? I rarely get to know about that silly gal spider!

Evil/Micro Itsy,Actor itsy And Eatsy to! I would love to know of your Different types of Itsy in different Au! I rarely get to know about them other than Isabella,Itsy and Beetsy.

I just love these Spiders of your creations.

Oh! And can you tell me about The rest of your wh ocs?? Such as charlie,jack,Motheaus,Motheaus twin sister I think?

But please do take your time to answer my question! 🙏🏻🫂💖

Thank You for the Questions, fellow mutual ✨💖✨

Thank You for loving my Spiders ✨💖✨

But in all honesty, I don’t really put much effort on to putting detailed details about ALL the Itsies, because it’s rather exhausting to think about. The majority of them are pretty somewhat similar to likes and dislikes and personality. Anything overall different about them would be their lore.

A hundred AUs with their own Itsy would get me caught on a web.

Hell, even only some of them have nicknames depending on their AU that I bothered to give. 🧍🏻

I also consider Molly to be a rather mysterious being despite her “silliness”

I mainly focus on Itsy, Beetsy, and Isabella because they are the most easiest to pay attention to.

Here are some extra Itsies infos tho:

Beetsy can dance jive.

Isabella uses her webs like a whip. She likes the beach and likes to play hide and seek. Under Isabella’s plush skin is an articulated doll designed as a skeleton with corrupted wood due to her blood.

Missy likes Ballet.

Ace likes to hide her eyes same as Isabella.

.

.

.

Charlie is a teen witch, paper doll, who has the ability to turn her from 2D & 3D and can morph in the shadows.

Itsy calls her “baby bat” as a nickname, similar to platonically calling someone “baby girl.”

Itsy & Charlie’s relationship isn’t just limited to being sisters, they are also student & teacher, apprentice & boss, and sometimes even mother & daughter.

Itsy likes to stuff her face with anything she can eat or consider edible, while Charlie doesn’t eat at all, because she’s made out of paper. . . except for hard candies. The candies don’t melt due to her lack of saliva but she can digest them or her body absorbs them.

She has social anxiety, making her seem shy and introverted to many people, but she’s also the type to be snarky & harshly blunt when she gets comfortable around someone. ( I mean, come on, the girl was raised by Itsy 💀 )

Jack was born in a mob family, along with his twin brother, Basil. Identical twins on the face but you can easily tell them apart from their different personality and color pattern of their scales.

Jack & Basil are colorful sock puppets with googly eyes ( stockings ).

Jack left his mob family since he didn’t want to do anything with them, other than Basil, who stayed to take over the business and can hold off anyone who tries to go after Jack just in case.

Jack’s job is gardening, a florist, and used to give Iris flowers to Itsy. ( Itsy prefers Black roses though ).

Motthew is a plush puppet who glows in the dark and runs an Insect Hotel just close to Honey Home Hospital, where Itsy works.

He likes the dark and the stars and moon or anything astronomy related. He also really likes planetariums.

( also Motthew doesn’t have any family members, and his little sister was scrapped a long time ago ).

PRIORITY POLLLL

my fingers are itching to write for either sunday or ratio.... yk what that means.....

HONKAI STAR RAIL MASTERLIST

MASTERLIST ・゜・NAVIGATION

1. pope!sunday + knight! m!reader: it's not everyday you're shoved into the shitty b-rated romance novel your friend read, but derailing the plot by looting this world before the fl and her ml entourage can is the least of your concerns as you fuck around and gain your own recognition. journey around the land of argo as you best monsters with your legendary sword and armies with the magic imbued with Earthen scientific loopholes! whether it be just a novel or a world in its own right, your actions are either meaningless (as it's just a novel) or meaningless (as it's truly a different world). although, such recognition comes at a price; as a newly-minted war hero against the chaotic, demonic forces, you're assigned the most dangerous male lead to guard as your next assignment - the obsessive papal figure for the order, sunday. but this too is perfect for you; might as well brush up on your theology skills in this world as you seek answers. outside his faith to ENA, second to only his absolute devotion to the female lead, there's no way you'll catch his eye like that, right?

2. cursed prince! ratio x alchemist m! reader: all knowledge comes at a price. cursed by his imperial tutor NOUS after accessing heretical material, he's fated to live entrapped in stone forever. a hundred years later, a scientist is transported to the kingdom of metis; a place where academia thrives but only the approved content. you're not sure why the hell you're in the indie rpg lament of ouroboros, but you do know it sucks and you'd rather die than come across the irritating main cast. what better way to have fun than to access the hidden side of magic through use of scientific formulae? unfortunately, the practice of alchemy is heretical to the kingdom and so you daylight as a sculptor! strange, this particular rock you started carving out of a whim looks like the deposed prince of a century back, your apprentice aventurine notes. how odd! how strange! veritas ratio is name you've never come across in-game; maybe it's because you didn't read enough lore about its stupid collectibles. regardless, every time you cast a detail - a smoother ear, a more textured iris - the ever-conscious prince ratio regains just a little more of his senses. and maybe it's your knowledge, or the intuition you possess, but something tells you there's a deeper meaning to the statue you started carving out of boredom. and what a coincidence that alchemy transmutates materials!

3. theology student! sunday x m reader (roommate au): something tells you the finicky orchestral conductor and theology student sunday quite dislikes you. is it the purse of his lips as you walk past in crooked formal wear that informs you? is it the jarring chords scraping against the fluting lilt of the strings and brasses? is it the harsh glare in his eyes as you walk past him on campus? it's perhaps the worst and unluckiest week in your life as soon as the new school year starts: your girlfriend's dumped you after her crush on the aforementioned halovian grows too pressing for her to stay quiet about, while you're assigned sunday as a roommate to rub more salt in the wound. but maybe his fluttering wings aren't as indicative of his frustration as they seem, and maybe you're not as headache-inducing as he quite imagined. when two sets of philosophies and grudges clash abruptly like this, what could possibly remain standing from the fallout?

Clan gen challenge- iris clan!!

Warning: due to the amount of cats in iris clan, I EXTREMLLYY dumbed down my style. This art is not good!! Its to keep me from burning out!!

Quiet-star, the bloodthirsty and scrutinizing leader of iris-clan. Quiet-star is a mid-sized, short furred she-cat with speckles along her cream colored pelt. She is cruel, secretive, and all along not a very kind leader. She can come through at times for the cats she loves and steps up when need be, but at other times she is very distant and unavailable for her clan mates. She loves her son brindle-fur, and also her adoptive daughter bitterbird- but won’t admit it

Mint-shadow. The large, orange Tom cat who believes himself to be extremely morally superior to his clan mates. He has 3 daughters- shy-gaze, rush-night, and cricket-hare. Mint-shadow had raised all 3 young cats by himself due to his mate, aster-belly, dying due to white cough. Mint-shadow believes he has an extremely well moral compass and will use that to win any argument he may have.

Shy-gaze is the small, plump, soft spoken med-cat. One of mint-shadows daughters, early in life she was selected to be a medicine cat apprentice after forest-breeze, the early medicine cat, had witnessed starclan saving the young-she after a horrific snake attack when she was an apprentice. Shy-gaze is an extremely smart and well-thought of med cat, surpassing even forest-breeze in skill.

Bitterbird- the main character! She is quiet-stars adoptive daughter, her origins are kept a tight secret from the clan. She is reluctant, nervous, and unsure of her skills as a warrior. However under that is a secret bubbling.. maybe she won’t stay a timid young warrior for too long.

egret-coral: bitterbirds sweet, caring, and adventurous childhood friend. He’s been pestering her ever since they were kits- they did their vigil together and they have been close for many moons. Egret-corals mother is rushnight, however his father is unknown to the clan. Egret-coral enjoys making his fellow clan mates laugh and genuinely hates seeing anyone upset. However he is a bit desperate to prove himself as a capable warrior, and will therefor charge into stupid battles to do so.

Ice-fur, a pious, kind young she-cat. Panthersongs sister.

panther-song, a jealous, hateful she who wishes to be elected in a form of power to finally prove her family isn’t what the clan thought it to be. As a young kit, her and her siblings were bought in and kept under the careful eye of hoot-lilac, who seemed nothing short of ashamed of his rogue kits he was assigned. Panther-song will do anything to prove hoot-lilac wrong.

Sneezestep; brother to smoke-fin and blue-needle, he is the camps biggest know-it-all. Snooty, knowledgable, and insufferable.

smoke-fin, not much of a talker, prefers to keep himself on low.

blue-needle, a young Tom-cat who strives to be deputy one day like his sister, panther-song. However he is noble enough to put his family first.

Hoot-lilac, a snooty, cruel, and self-serving Tom. Due to an injury, he was assigned den-dad duty as a young warrior to panther-song and her siblings. Least to say he was not very fond of them.

ebony-fur. A young, curious Tom- mostly keeps to himself and doesn’t say much.

Shadow-claw, a young she cat who was involved in a badger attack as a small apprentice, she is highly regarded in her clan after protecting the kits during this attack!

Creekacorn- a smart, respected Tom in the clan. Earned his scar in a battle against owl-clan.

toad-claw, a young she cat. Recently earned her medicine cat name.

pigeon-feather, a respected warrior.

scar-whisker, a young Tom panther-song seems to be close to..

blink-shadow, an old Tom who has served his clan for a long time.

egret-leaf, a young Tom who seems to have his sights set on shy-gaze, but respects her role as a medicine cat.

Rushnight, a gorgeous speckle-pelted she-cat. However is not held in high regards for breaking the warrior code with a rouge..

cricket-hare, tiny, sarcastic, and insecure, she is not a delight to be around.

Brindle fur! Quiet-stars elder son and bitterbirds half brother. He is kind, charismatic, but ashamed of his past. He loves his little sister and tries his best to see past his mothers negativity, but finds it a bit wearing sometimes.

MOON 0 | SMILING MOON

"Leappaw asks Irispaw how he feels about being a warrior."

“Hey- Iris, you doin’ okay?” Leappaw pads up the curved head of the monster, meeting Irispaw, who was loafed down on its flat back. Snow falls gently from the dark sky, piling on the earth below and coating the monster’s metal pelt.

Irispaw looks up. “Oh? Yeah, I’m fine. Just watching the stars.”

“Mhm,” Leappaw hums, sitting down beside him. “Whatcha thinkin’ about? You have that face on.”

Irispaw scoffs a laugh. “Do I really?” He sighs, bringing himself more upright to sit properly as well. “I guess I’m just… thinking about what our apprenticeships could’ve been like right now if we actually had mentors.”

Leappaw nods, forlornly considering the scenario. Nightstorm was supposed to be Irispaw’s mentor, and Sootfrost his own. Two siblings and incredibly talented warriors; even if it had never been said, they would have kept the pair of tight-knit apprentices training together. That had probably been why Star Shatter was going to appoint them as their mentors in the first place– because they’d understand that he and Iris were inseparable.

But Nightstorm and Sootfrost were taken from them. Leappaw remembers the moment that Sootfrost lifted her nose from Leappaw’s forehead- and in the instant after, she was bowling him away and caterwauling, alongside the shrieking of the rest of the colony, as their home was invaded by creatures of bloodthirst.

Leappaw remembers her cry to run before her neck was snapped by the catching jaws of a beast.

“What are we even supposed to do?” Irispaw murmurs, breaking his thoughts like Nightstorm’s spine was broken shortly after his sister’s.

“I think…” Leappaw pauses. His natural instinct is to reassure Irispaw no matter what- but Irispaw stares at him with truly evaluative amber eyes. Irispaw would know if there was a lack of sincerity. He had to truly think about it.

It was going to be hard. That much was undeniable– especially in the fresh leafbare season, the weather was hardly a pleasant fit for already difficult ordeals. Any prey they might be able to find would likely be hiding in the snow… the colony so far had been lucky enough to find the fallen bodies of little animals who hadn’t made it to shelter in time, or the leftovers of beasts that ate their fill and left the rest, to feed them. The two of them hadn’t actually done any proper hunting yet, other than an instance a few days before, in which a miraculously fat pair of quail were too slow in the thick snow to escape Leappaw and Irispaw’s bounding claws. That had truly been their best accomplishment by far, and it was only the beginning.

Additionally, the two of them did not know how to fight in the slightest. Tiny spars as kittens and the rare few practice sessions that warriors had allowed them to spectate hardly did them any good. How were either of them supposed to learn how to fight? Poolgleam couldn’t teach them– he didn’t know any more than they did. Or at least, Leappaw thought… maybe Poolgleam did know a thing or two after all.

Was it pure impulse or true fighting instinct when Poolgleam violently bashed in the head of the beast that’d been so close to mauling Leappaw?

There were so many things they were going to have to learn how to do on their own. Poolgleam’s knowledge only went so far, even if he did have hidden experience of some kind. Serpentkit and Bushkit would be facing this predicament when they started training, too. Perhaps by then, he and Iris would have knowledge enough to help them, but as it stood… that’s wishful thinking.

Leappaw sighed. “I dunno, Iris. It’s gonna be really tough. But…” He looked up from his paws, meeting Irispaw’s tired eyes again.

We’re not on our own.

Leappaw smiles a little. “We have each other,” he meowed, leaning forward slightly to butt his head into Irispaw’s shoulder. “I think we can make it work.”

Irispaw considers him for a few moments, before emitting an agreeing hum. Coolly, he meows back and returns the affectionate gesture, “I think so, too.”

Leappaw purrs. Sharing smiles like the moon shines its own on them, the two of them lay beside each other to keep warm and enjoy the beautiful snow falling from the deep violet sky a little longer. We can make this work.

AHRIDA

Gameplay Movie: https://youtu.be/5VVj0xXFawE?si=NIImsi4oTId2TB5c

Aliases: 'Rida, The Butcher's Bane

Date of Birth: 13 BTC / 2,666 BBY(23 at start of game)

Gender: Female

Species: Cathar

Home Planet: Cathar

Affiliations: Republic

Class: Smuggler

Discipline:ScoundrelS

Role: DPS

Significant Other: Corso Riggs

Primary Companion: Corso Riggs

Preferred Weapons: Blaster Pistol with burnt umber color crystal, Scattergun

Outfit: (Impulsive Adventurer’s Armor Set), Ahrida sports a blue and black typical spacer’s outfit with a white linen shirt and leather belt, boots, and glove.

Species Traits: Cathar come from a rough Savannah planet, and have evolved into a dangerous bipedal carnivorous predator feline species. They sport retractable claws on their fully dexterous hands and have sharp fanged canines along with several other carnivore-aligned teeth. Their entire bodies are covered in short fur with longer manes around their heads, with the males sporting full manes that can cover their lower faces and the females partial manes restricted to the tops of their heads. Their ears are elongated and pointed, and the bridges of their noses are long and flat with flared nostrils. Some Cathar have whiskers. Their eyes are usually all iris with slit pupil, though some have more human eyes with smaller irises and rounded pupils. All have tapetum lucidum making it easier for them to see in the dark, and they are semi-nocturnal. They can make a variety of sounds, including but not limited to growls, hisses, purrs, and intimidating roars. Their Hunter instincts are strong, and they have bodies entirely devoted to hunting including increased speed, agility, senses, and strength.

Physical Characteristics: Ahrida has dark brown and  lighter rich brown fur with darker brown striping covering her body. Her mane is dark brown, cut short and pulled back into a small ponytail. Her eyes are grey-purple, and she has claw marks over the still-functioning left eye from a fight with another Cathar in her youth.

Personality Traits: Ahrida is, at her core, rough-and-tumble. She doesn't do fancy, but she finds Corso's determination to "treat a lady right" endearing all the same. Personal gain is only a motivator insofar as it does not come at the detriment to others, and while she can be brusque and blunt she also has a quieter side that few people are privileged to see.

Associated Music: "Here's to Never Growing Up" - Avril Lavigne (https://youtu.be/4EZuLmiz7To?si=gHiCE05kb-uenU6f)

Trivia: Ahrida is naturally inquisitive despite her upbringing, and can be seen constantly with a holobook as she educates herself about the Galaxy and everything within it. Though she presents a cavalier outlook on formal education, she loves self-learning.

Personal Background: Ahrida was born into a litter of five on Cathar during the resettlement period in a rural nomadic hunting community. Fascinated by the stars and the greater Galaxy at a young age, Ahrida frequently snuck into the largest nearby town to interact with the pilots in the spaceport. She soon earned a job in a mechanic's shop from an old grizzled Cathar as his trade apprentice, and when he died without family his will and inheritance was given over to Ahrida. It wasn't much, but it was enough to buy a spaceship and lessons to get her license, and Ahrida left as soon as possible without ever looking back.

THE KA'RA LEGACY

DTEMA

Gameplay Movie: https://youtu.be/pKaXl9Iso40?si=atGfZ59GWJIedsYw

Aliases: Tem, Barsen'thor, Sky Hunter, Herald of Scorekeeper

Date of Birth: 8 BTC / 2,661 BBY (18 at start of game)

Gender: Female

Species: Mirialan

Home Planet: Mirial

Affiliations: Republic, Jedi

Class: Jedi Consular

Discipline: Shadow

Role: Tank

Significant Other: Arcann

Primary Companion: Qyzen Fess

Preferred Weapon 1: Double-bladed Lightsaber, green color crystal with black-green center.

Preferred Weapon 2: Commander of the Eternal Alliance's Dualsaber, lavender color crystal.

Outfit 1: (Tython Highlander Armor Set), Dtema wears rough-spun white linen with pale grey edging made of plant fibers. This is paired with simple matte tan leather gauntlets, belt, and gloves with metal fastenings.

Outfit 2: Dtema's Commander uniform is much more neutral in color and shades of browns, earthy tones and organic materials. It is also much more practical and more refined than her old outfit.

Species Traits: Mirialans are an extremely agile and flexible near-human species with very heightened reflexes that make them extraordinarily fast. Their skin ranges from dark green to pale orange-yellow, and their eyes and hair colors fall along the typical human range with the addition of violet, yellow, orange, and red irises. A highly religious Force-zealous culture, their people mark major milestones with stylized tattoos.

Physical Characteristics: Dtema has vibrant green skin and nearly black dark green hair pulled into an elaborate bun and long braid that falls to the middle of her back, capped in gold thread. Her eyes are deep orange-red, and her tattoos frame her face along the cheekbones and cover also the center of her forehead and chin. After becoming the Commander of the Eternal Alliance, Dtema has cut her hair much shorter and wears it pinned far more closely to her head. She has also earned herself a small scar on her left cheek.

Personality Traits: Dtema manages to balance the expected decorum and reservedness of a Jedi Master with an impish and somewhat mischievous sense of humor. She Finds her duties as the Barsen'thor to be very fulfilling and is a patient, understanding teacher. These qualities make her an outstanding diplomat and, combined with her skills with a lightsaber, make her a deadly opponent both on and off of the battlefield. She inspires great loyalty in friends and courage in cowards.

Associated Music: “True Colors” - Glee Cast Version (https://youtu.be/qtkYB1nkiqE?si=LleUXqsbhnjfiF8K)

Trivia: Dtema is one of the youngest Jedi Masters to have a seat upon the High Council, and is the third Barsen'thor in the history of the Order. Her training was guided strongly by the Force.

Personal Background: Born into the Force-zealous culture of Mirial, Dtema showed great aptitude at a very young age and was taken to a Jedi Temple on-planet at the age of four. There, she trained and studied hard in the art of the saber, diplomacy, and mastering the Force. She became a senior Padawan by the age of fourteen and was apprenticed to an elder Knight. Her first Master was killed on a relief mission, and Dtema was assigned to Master Yuon Par on Tython at eighteen to complete her training. She was Knighted shortly after when it became apparent that the Force was working through her.

"Fantastic Beasts star Eddie Redmayne makes magic on and off screen✨⤵️

INTERVIEW "Fantastic Beasts star Eddie Redmayne makes magic on and off screen" BY DEBRA WALLACE for South Jersey Magazine

"His Wizarding Ways"

"Eddle Redmayne made a big impression in 2016, when he first stepped into the role of wizard and "Magizoologist" Newt Scamander for the hugely popular Fantastic Beasts film series. His on-screen work may have been a bit too spectacular for at least one diminutive group, though.

Redmayne's two young children-6-year-old Iris and 4-year-old Luke recently asked him to show off some of his Fantastic Beasts wizardry. Instead of magical fireworks, he produced a simple trick involving a coin, prompting his son to say, "But that's not the stuff you do in the trailer."

Redmayne's acting has earned him a lot of hardware: an Academy Award, a Tony Award, a British Film Award and two Laurence Olivier Awards. Noteworthy film roles include Les Misérables, The Danish Girl and The Theory of Everything, though he may be best known for his work in Fantastic Beasts.

Redmayne's role as a father trumps that of an award-winning actor. After the most recent Fantastic Beasts film was completed, Redmayne's daughter wanted to play with Newt's wand, and of course he agreed. An hour later, she had "covered the thing with tin foil, made a little star, and turned it into a fairy wand," he says.

The latest installment of the series, Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, premiered in theaters on April 15, and it is expected to be released on DVD, Blu ray, and Digital HD in July. For those who have not yet seen the film, Redmayne shared his perspective on what viewers can expect.

Q&A

How would you describe your new Fantastic Beasts movie?

"Dumbledore (played by Jude Law) sends me and a band of outsiders on a heist to save the wizarding world from Grindelwald, who's the archnemesis. It's full of wonder, magic and whimsy, and it's got a lot of humor and heart to it"

What do you appreciate about your character Newt?

"What love about Newt is that fundamentally he's an introverted guy and is most comfortable with his creatures and in his own world. But Dumbledore has seen a quality in him that has the potential for leadership, albeit in an unconventional way. ... All of us are unconventional, and the leader is unconventional, and there's a kind of wonder in that".

"I love the Newt-Dumbledore relationship because it's got that complexity of mas ter and apprentice, but it's evolved through out the movies to being something almost fraternal; a sort of older brother and younger brother. There's a moment in this film where Newt takes it upon himself to see the vulnerability in Dumbledore and tries to pass on a mode of wisdom to him, so that is clearly a progression".

Did you know the whole story before filming started?

"As far as the story of the arc of the series, it was sort of given to us each script at a time. Occasionally, we would get snippets of what might be coming up in the next films, and there would be quite a lot of whispers. "Did you hear this?" One of the amazing things about our director, David Yates, is that even though the script is there and the technical creative aspects of that script are a big tech nical feat, he would allow us as actors the freedom to improvise, to come up with new ideas, to change things or modulate things on the day of shooting.... That for me has been some of the most fun. A lot of these actors in the film are brilliant at improvising so watching them improvise and add just extra layers was wonderful".

Have you learned anything from your time playing Newt Scamander in the Fantastic Beasts series? He seems to have grown a lot over the course of the three films.

"Oh, that's a lovely question. I adore Newt, and there are many things that I love about him. I love that he's an incredibly empathetic person. He looks for the good in people. He's also very happy in his own company, and in the company of creatures. Newt is someone that enjoys silence. I'm someone that in my anxiety tends to fill too. many words, like I'm doing now. But along with that, there are various epithets or things that he said which I now try and live by.... One is that worrying means you suffer twice, which was in the first movie. I'm a great worrier and I always tell myself that if the horrendous thing's going to happen, then there's no point worrying about it be cause it's going to happen anyway and you've just kind of doubled your pain".

Which is your favorite spell from all of the Wizarding World movies?

"I would say the Tarantallegra one. ... It is all about making people dance; something that I really can't do. It was just so random. It is kind of a metaphor. I think in life ran domly making yourself feel better by people randomly dancing is always quite fun".■
