#lion > alder (by like a hair) > holly > spark > jay

there really is nothing to say about a vision of shadows

design notes WOO woo

alderheart: base fur color was taken from my brambleclaw's base fur layered over my squirrelstar's base fur and then tinkering with the opacity until it looked nice. both have the same stripe patterns + chin highlight as squirrelstar, and alderheart in specific got her freckles.

sparkpelt: some inspo taken from nanistar and powderseas :). tried to lower the amount of white i draw her with so it stands out more. i don't have much to say about her design but i think i'm satisfied with it for now

neither of them changed a whole lot from the last time i drew them. for alderheart in specific, i think literally only his tail pattern changed, and all he got was an extra stripe

Uhh any Sparkpelt hcs to share?

omg hi!!! im so sorry this took so long to answer... i got distracted watching riverdale 😔

but umm i have a lot, most of them ive already shared but here they are! they're also all very all over the place and miscellaneous but!

-spark is a pansexual grayromantic librafem, and uses she/it pronouns!

-shes kind of really mean <3 i love her for that! (she also probably makes fun of alder a lot, she knows hes just too sweet to beat her up altho he definitely could)

-shes also pretty tall! like. one of the tallest cats in the colonies. although shes still mad that alder is like. a giant and the tallest cat in the lake so 😔

-she also has a very windclan like build. thats because in my heart sandstorm is like. half wind or smthn

-she has a lot of scars - her ears are just from like. regular skirmishes and battles - but the others are all from the dog attack.

-she has graying hair! it started graying when its in mid-apprenticeship. its because of genetics, not anything else (like me lmao)

-spark is basically just. a firestar coloured sandstorm! it still gets called firestar by accident sometimes - even though its like. twice his height XD

-it has the same eye colour as nutmeg

-shes also really close to sandstorm and leafpool! since squilf had a lot of deputy duties, it and alder often got babysat by leaf and sand. shes also very close with daisy ofc, and would call her mum lmao.

-she and alder also obviously got babysat by their brothers. she and lion like to beat eachother up daily now <3

-she and alder dd like. Everything together. theyre really close and they love each other a lot so they were both devastated when alder was made a healer. It would sometimes sneak in with twigkit to hang out and help alder, much to jays annoyance lmao.

-shes a really good hunter like holly and sand! i like to think that sand was the one who really taught her how to hunt.

-she doesnt really have a normal mentor/apprentice relationship with cherryfall. she respects her very much, but they never really formed a strong relationship!

-she and needletail definitely had crushes on each other when they were apprentices. there was. a lot of charged energy between them lmao. they gradually grew a part, but spark was still devastated when needletail died. it sill has a trinket from twolegs that she gave it.

-its really likes learning stories and about history - she also loves telling people random pieces of history and can probably ramble on for hours about like. the great battle or something lmao. this also means she like. hung around the elders den a lot a was probably graystripes favourite great grandchild lol. (grayfiresand is real in my heart)

-larksong was the one who started braiding her hair. after his death, lilyheart taught it houw to do it itself, since lilyheart was the one who taught larksong.

-the flowers she wears and the first flowers larksong gave to her to start their courtships. she also has them woven into her nest, although she sleeps in the healers den most nights with her brothers.

-she and larksong had a special clearing they would go almost every day together - she still goes now. its also where flickerkit is buried.

-she became really close friends with twigbranch, leafshade and honeyfur after larksongs death. lilyheart as well.

-sorrelstripe was always very kind to her, but they really became friends after imposterstar got imprisoned. they talk about finch and flame together - and sorrel tries to help spark rebuild her relationship with flame

-spark gets really scared around bramblestar still. she never really like him cause hes a fucking bitch, but after the imposterstar fiasco and the cat it thought was its own father tried to kill her and exiled her, she couldnt look bramblestar in the eye again. sometimes, she thinks that she can see blue in his eyes.
