I mean–sure. If anyone here wants to ask about any of these things, they may. Though only the clan asks, cat asks or world asks apply, because I don't have a moon by moon comic about HoC or anything, so "author asks" can't happen, I just couldn't answer.. well, a few I could probably answer... Any characters can receive them.. whether that be a cat in StarClan or one of the living cats.

Clangen Ask Game V2

I had some questions I wanted to edit, some I wanted to add, so here’s round 2 of the Clangen Ask Game! Most are phrased in reference to clangen comics or fan writing, but this can apply to whatever clangen/clangen-adjacent media you create!

An Awkward First Day Out

New apprentice Bogpaw was going out with her mentor, Flutterfoot for the first time. But, Feathershade was eager to join them.. for uh, reasons.. that should be obvious judging by this drawing. Bogpaw gets ignored as a result of this, resulting in a very unproductive and awkward training session.

Seeing A Kit's Future Demise

These next two are very, very recent, I've made them both this month. This one is a scene from Palestar's kithood. Cedarwhisker, a former deputy, now of StarClan, apparently saw Palekit's future demise. Crowblink doesn't like the way Cedarwhisker is looking at his sister, and he's yelling at him for it.

Featuring my main sona Ember, popping up in StarClan to tell Grassheart that the game decided that her sons, Beepelt and Hemlockswipe are murderers now. With Beepelt killing Frigidpaw, and Hemlockswipe killing Nightburn AND Smokeyberry..

Whispercrest "Found" A Kit

Yeah, pretty sure that kit you "found" is likely your own, Whispercrest. She looks way too much like you for her not to be, so that's the canon within HorizonClan's story, being that Whispercrest claims to have found a kit, but that kit was actually a kit she gave birth to..

* these scenes started in order of when they occured, but that whole thing fell through very quickly, so, I've given up, and I am now just posting a collection of random HoC art *

A Dream Not Meant To Be

(art from late July 2024)

⚠️ TW: Blood/Death ⚠��

Sloepaw, who died as an apprentice. I made this, because I remembered something when he was a kit, the game said "Sloekit dreams of becoming a warrior" which he'd never be.. With how many kits and apprentices HoC had lost, I highly, highly doubt Sloepaw was the only cat this could be said about, but he's the only one who immediately came to mind.

Designs Explained

(all art from April 2024)

So, what is this? For a time, I was really thrown off regarding why Summitsnap and Snapskitter were listed as being bicolored, because I didn't see any obvious colors other than white. When I looked in the files, it said that Summitsnap had an off white scourge paw, and Snapskitter had a gray ear, which, for him, I thought I'd seen–it's pretty obvious, but it doesn't really work great with his sprite and therefore it wasn't quite as obvious as it seems it normally would be, so I wasn't sure until I checked the files. So, Nightburn being Summitsnap's son, how he looks exactly like Scourge, is a lot more clear. Doesn't explain how he got black fur though–to be fair, his mother was unknown. As for the third image with Spotfruit, I did see the spot over his eye, obviously.. but it just looked black to me. I checked Spotfruit, not for explaining his design, but for explaining his son's pelt, that being Dropletfur, who has the "ghost" pelt. Which is when I found out that Spotfruit's pelt under all that white, is also the ghost pelt... which is where Dropletfur got it...

A Mysterious Murder

(art from early April 2024)

⚠️ TW: Blood/Death ⚠️

Basilleaf had been killed as setup for a villain storyline I was brainstorming, but it never materialized, resulting in a pointless death of a character I had attachment to, and adding +1 to his daughter's trauma counter..... I'm... so sorry, Grassheart... my poor RNG tortured baby, you didn't deserve this..

Reunited At Last

(art from late February 2024)

Kind of a sad follow up to the previous post, I made this after Whorlpounce herself died later. For a comparison, Cariboufleck, the light brown one, died first, at 46 moons, Troutsmoke the blueish gray one, died at 81 moons, and Whorlpounce, at 109 moons. I really love these three, likely in no small part because of them being the first kits born in the clan, to Cedarfall and an unknown tom.

Whorlpounce's Grief

(art from early February 2024)

Where did she get the flower in this weather? Don't question it, it's for the picture, it's cute. This art may be a bit old... but I still really like it, I think it looks really good, sad, but good...

Creekfeather Found Kits

The birth of Maplerapid, Hopedawn and Micastar. This marks the first time the clan took in fully outsider kits, during moon 21.

HORIZONCLAN PART 14

* no art is mine, and were taken as screenshots of the clangen game *

I lost clangen, and I'm scared I may never get it back. So, I am putting my screenshots of my main clan, HorizonClan from my phone, and reposting all of them on here, so if I lose the screenshots for some reason, they'll always be here for me to get back easily.

Yeah, the screenshot of Rowanspot shows her partially faded, uhhhm–you get the idea.

• Summitfrost, who'd originally been a she cat before changing to identify as non binary, really didn't get to enjoy retirement at all. They retired with an infected wound, that very wound killed them very shortly after..

• Micastar, or Micawhisper when she died, had been leader for many moons before retiring due to increasing problems with her epilepsy.. which she had been born with...

I noticed when making these that I seem to have lost Flurryspeck and Riverfur, meaning that they must've faded completely, before I had the chance to disable fading for them in the way that I disabled it, for everyone else.. Both had been she cats who were originally from outside of the clan before joining. Flurryspeck was a white furred spotted tabby, she had originally been a kittypet named Jaiden, and eventually died of an infected wound... while Riverfur had originally been a kittypet named Byeol–whatever that means, she had been a very blue leopard print, and had been killed by rouges alongside her apprentice, Frostpaw.

• Frondfreckle, the littermate of Fernfeather and Stemspots had been the very first kitten death, that HorizonClan ever experienced...

• Cragspots died on his final assessment...

The final part–will be the elders of HoC...

• Flitfalcon and Frigidpelt were littermates of Feathershade and Chaffinchmist, Frigidpelt had.. been.. POISONED BY THE MED CAT!!

• Orchidcrawl had been the littermate of Shiveringgorse, and Lizardblotch–who, I think actually faded, so I can't show him, but he was a red and white leopard print cat.

Beepelt, the only unknown residence clan spirit... had been exiled for killing the young apprentice, Frigidpaw with foxglove seeds. When Beepelt died, he didn't go to the Dark Forest, as his last act was trying to warn his old clan about rouges in the area, but he also felt undeserving of going to StarClan, and so, he chose to remain a wanderer after death..

There's only five here, because after this, I'll be doing the cats that died at under a year of age, so kits and apprentices. The only exception to this is Icybadger, who was in an earlier part. As a note, kits and apprentices that died were given warrior names in StC

• Speaking of, Onionspots had technically been an apprentice when he died, but was warrior age, and only never became a true warrior, because he was sick.. with redcough, his entire time in the clan, from when he joined at 8 moons, to when he died at 13..

• Sandylarch had been Dashtuft's littermate, and they were the kits of Summitfrost and Feathershade, making them the younger half siblings of Palestar and her littermates. But, Palestar didn't really care for either of them
