Joined a WC rp group and I've been working on some of my OCs!
This one is my Shadowclan warrior, Scorchpelt!
He's a loyal warrior who just likes being a useful warrior to the clan & has some dad-figure vibes. Prior to a fire that went through camp and left him with some burns, his name was Shadestripe! Parts of his fur that grew back after he healed mutated to an orange color and his name was changed to Scorchpelt. He bears the name proudly, as it serves as a reminder of his bravery.
Third image features his family: His father Needletuft & his mother Dappledfeather.

A dark brown tabby tom was padding through the forest, his whiskers twitching as he headed towards the direction of the camp. "Weasel'Water?" The Thunder'Clan leader grunted as the tom entered the camp,
Weasel'Water looked at her, a slight pleading look on his face. "You have to stop this, Sedge'Star." He mewed, his tail flickering. "And why would I listen to a medicine cat and a traitor like you?" Sedge'Star growled. 
But she did not move from her spot. He stiffened a bit, he didn't had a choice. He HAD to leave. "Please! You can't do this, there are innocent lives at stake! Surely you would understand that, wouldn't you?!" He begged. 
The tom found himself shaking a bit as some cats if Thunderclan began to come out of the dens, curious of what's going on. "I don't care." Sedge'Star replied simply, staring at Weasel'Water with a dark unreadable look. 
"What happen to the cat that you used to be?" He whispered, "Long dead now." Sedge'Star snorted before turning her gaze onto her deputy, Cherry'Blaze. 
Weasel'Water followed her gaze and saw the deputy, he stiffened. He had encountered Cherry'Blaze, when she was just a rogue. She was nervous and timid when he had met her. 
But now she looked dark and hostile. "Cherry'Blaze, how about you be a dear and kill him for me, will you?" Sedge'Star purred darkly as the deputy immediately leapt down, unsheathing her claws. 
Weasel'Water's ears flattened against his head, "Cherry'Blaze! Please don't do this!" He pleaded, glancing behind him but saw that two warriors were blocking the exit of the camp. 
He nervously glanced back at the deputy, "Sorry not sorry." Cherry'Blaze sneered, leaping at the medicine cat. He yelped in surprise as she pinned him down. 
Sedge'Star chuckled darkly, "It's sad, you know? Your own mate betrays you for her leader." She smirked as the deputy bit down on his throat. 
"I'm sure your little rebellion group will be dearly upset with you gone, but of course, that's the whole point. Now isn't it?" She meowed, her tone sounded smooth and dark. 
Cherry'Blaze stepped away from Weasel'Water, who laid motionless now. "Weak." Sedge'Star hissed before looking at the two warriors who had blocked the exit of the camp. "Dark'Tail and Speckle'Tuft, take his body out of here." She ordered. 
The warriors nodded and went over to Weasel'Water's body, picking it up and carried it out of camp. "Now, we shall find that group, don't we?" She grinned, looking at a tortoiseshell apprentice. 
"Spotted'Paw, you'll go and find that group. Once you find their location, come and report back to me." She ordered. 
Spotted'Paw couldn't believe it, first she had taken over Windclan's territory, then killed a medicine cat, and now she wants to kill the rebellion group? He shuddered. 
But he dipped his head, "Yes Sedge'Star." He meowed before leaving camp, despite feeling rising fear. Until a loud angry growl made him pause in his tracks. 
He whipped his head around, seeing his mother was standing in the clearing. "Are you insane Sedge'Star?! Spotted'Paw is still young! Do you really think it's wise for him to leave camp?!" His mother hissed. 
Sedge'Star sat down, wrapping her tail around her front paws neatly. "I assure you, Frost'Petal. Spotted'Paw is old enough, after all, he's an apprentice. He'll be fine." Sedge'Star meowed calmly. 
"I understand your concerns. Believe me, I do. But Spotted'Paw must learn the territories and other clans, think of it as a learning experience for him." She continued. 
Frost'Petal growled. "He's my kit! And I decide when he can leave cam-" "How old do you think he is Frost'Petal? He's not a kit, and he's definitely not four moons anymore. He's seven moons old." His mentor hissed, cutting her off. 
His mother opened her jaws to protest but closed it, Spotted'Paw frowned. He then padded out of camp, he just hoped that he won't fail. 
Anxiety started to form in his stomach, but he tried to ignore it. But he couldn't relax when he knew he had no clue where to go, his mentor hadn't got time to give him a tour of the territory. . .
He hoped he wouldn't fail. . .
-later- 
Spotted'Paw kinda ended up near Shadowclan's border, his tail flickered, but he found it odd when he smelled the scent marks. They were oddly stale, and if he could calculate correctly, he would say they were about six days stale. 
Which grew more suspicion for him. He glanced around, expecting a Shadowclan patrol. He took a deep breath, and slid a paw forwards. 
He shook himself, he couldn't believe he was gonna cross a border without permission! He nervous padded across, "Hello?" He mumbled, his eyes large with anxiety and nervousness, yet he couldn't help but feel curious and suspicious. 
Spotted'Paw padded along the border, he didn't want to go deeper in Shadowclan's territory so he stayed near the river that led to the lake. 
"Hey!" A voice made him freeze in his tracks, he slowly looked behind him. Seeing a reddish brown tabby with green eyes. He swallowed nervously. "Uh- H - Hey?" He answered nervously. 
But the feline didn't look hostile, instead she just padded up to him, looking calm yet curious. "What are you doing here Thunderclan cat?" She asked, she looked like she was a apprentice as well. 
He looked at his paws then back at her, swallowing nervously. "I'm Spotted'Paw, and Sedge'Star sent me." He mumbled, but he flinched when she swiftly drew herself back. 
"I'm Rowan'Paw, and Sedge'Star sent you here?" She questioned, looking a bit hostile. "To do what? Drive us off?" She hissed, he shook his head. "N - No. She sent me to find the rebellion group." He mumbled, avoiding her gaze.
Rowan'Paw glanced around before gazing at him with confusion, "What is the rebellion group?" She asked, "The rebels." He answered. "Oh, well, I'm not sure where they are." She admitted. 
She then flicked her tail, "And you think they might be here?" She snorted with slight amusement, Spotted'Paw lowered his head with embarrassment. "S - Sorry, I should've asked permission, but no patrol was coming and-" he was cut off when she slapped her tail on his muzzle. 
"Chillax. And plus, you won't be seeing a patrol for a while." She mewed softly, removing her tail from his muzzle. "What? Is Shadowclan okay?" Spotted'Paw asked worriedly. 
Rowan'Paw's gaze softened, "You really are different then your clanmates and Sedge'Star." She meowed, before sitting down. "As for my clan, we are dealing with a dangerous sickness so we are losing cats quickly." She began, 
"So we decided to not send anymore cats to keep the other clans safe." She mumbled before looking at Thunderclan's Territory. "Though, I wouldn't mind if Sedge'Star got sick." She spat. 
Spotted'Paw shuddered. "You're not sick too, are you?" He asked awkwardly, Rowan'Paw looked at him and smirked. "Nope! I'm too tough to get sick!" She puffed out her chest, her eyes sparkling with pride. 
He smiled softly, "But which cats are available? Surely you should keep patrolling your border, since who knows? Sedge'Star might take the advantage of this." He explained nervously. 
Rowan'Paw looked at him, but didn't argue. "Well, there's me, Doe'Paw, Running'Star, Night'Sky, Fennel'Pounce and Needle'Tuft." She told him, her ears twitching. "And those are the cats that are not sick?!" Spotted'Paw gasped, his eyes widened. 
She nodded. "Quite unfortunate, Night'Sky can't patrol cause her kits are due any time. Which isn't good at all." She grumbled, shaking her head. "Fennel'Pounce won't leave her side either." She added. 
"What about Running'Star, Needle'Tuft and Doe'Paw?" He asked, worried about her and her clan. Rowan'Paw smiled a bit, "Running'Star doesn’t want to risk it. Doe'Paw is stuck in camp cause he's the medicine cat apprentice." She answered. 
"And Needle'Tuft?" Spotted'Paw blinked. "Needle'Tuft never leaves camp cause she's afraid of getting hurt again, and plus, she's been staying in the medicine cat den due to her injuries." Rowan'Paw explained. 
He wanted to ask what happened but he felt like he was getting too personal, "She was led to a fox trap as a trap. Turns out, Sedge'Star had set the trap." She answered his burning question. 
Spotted'Paw shuddered, "Anyway, do you know where Weasel'Water even went?" She asked, he looked at his paws. "Yes but. . .he's. . .he's dead. He had conforted Sedge'Star but ended up dying in the end by his former mate, Cherry'Blaze." He murmured,
Rowan'Paw stared in surprise. "Sedge'Star ordered Cherry'Blaze to kill a medicine cat?!" She hissed, the fur on her neck started to bristle. "Yeah. . ." He nodded slowly, his eyes shining with sympathy. "And the rebels will be upset to know that they lost a member." He added,
She scoffed quietly, "How old are you?" She tipped her head to one side, "Seven moons." He answered hesitantly, "Well I'm nine moons and if you need protecting, just call me for me." She nodded. 
Spotted'Paw blinked in surprise. "But for now, you said you need to find the rebels, yes?" She questioned, he nodded. "Alright! Let's go look for them!" She grinned, hopping on her paws. 
The tom flinched, "Wait - What? Us? Together?" He looked shocked and startled, Rowan'Paw rolled her eyes. "Yeah! What's wrong? Just because I'm a Shadowclan cat, doesn't mean I'm evil! If that's what you're thinking." She snorted, 
He shook his head, "Of course not! It's not that, it's just. . .It's just that- why? Why would you want to come with me? It's my job and Sedge'Star sent me." He meowed, 
She just shrugged, "Well it's kinda stuffy and boring back at the camp, and I don't feel like getting sick. And plus, you said Sedge'Star sent you. She might kill you if you even did find them." She replied, 
She then playfully cuffed his ears, "Now are we going or not, stupid furball?" She huffed, looking impatient. Spotted'Paw smiled a bit, "Okay. . .let's go." He answered, nodding slowly.

Needletuft and Finchberry: Needletuft is An atheist medicine cat apprentice who was only apprenticed because her mentor, Finchberry, didn't believe she'd be caught falsifying signs from starclan if her own apprentice didn't believe in that mumbo jumbo. Needletuft and Finchberry have a strained relationship. Finchberry looks down on Needletuft and sees her as beneath her. Needletuft sees witnesses the lies and deceptive nature of Finchberry and finds her morally repugnant.
Newedletuft - A determined and intelligent she-cat. Needletuft might not believe in StarClan, but she knows that the role of healing her clan is an important one and she will do what she must, especially now that she realises what kind of cat Finchberry is, she feels the need to keep an eye on her. Needletuft will carry out her duties as medicine cat as best as she can, it may not be the life she originally planned but she is now completely dedicated to her role, and she will do whatever she can to stop Finchberry falsifying signs for her own means, 14/10
Finchberry - An arrogant and ambitious she-cat. Finchberry is a medicine cat, not for the healing factor, but the power she has in her clan as one. Everyone looks up to the medicine cat and expects them to tell the clan what to do, Finchberry saw the opportunity to exploit this and ran with it. She thought Needletuft would be a compliant apprentice and a good accomplice, she was wrong, that meddling she-cat is more trouble than she’s worth for Finchberry, 15/10

This is a headcanon I've had ever since I read Squirrelflight's Hope. Since we learned that Tree was born from the Sisters, I've been thinking about his kits. We know that the huge-and-fluffy genes of the sisters seem to have skipped him - I designed him to have his mother Moonlight's fluff, and he's got some of her muscle, but he's rather small. I imagine Rootpaw/Rootspring being on the small side when he grows up as well, but he's not the only kit of Tree. I started thinking - what if the huge-and-fluffy Sister genes for whatever reason skipped the toms in Tree's family, but showed up in the she-cats? And thus my headcanon was born - Needlepaw growing up to be the very image of a huge, muscular, fluffy Sister just like her grandma Moonlight. After a few days of work, here is my artistic depiction of huge!Needlepaw. :D
I've always pictured Tigerstar and his lookalike descendents as being the very largest cats in the Clans. So when Moonlight and the other Sisters were described as so large they loomed over Bramblestar, I immediately started picturing them as ridiculously, completely over-the-top huge. The Sisters claim to be descended from kittypets, so I decided to headcanon them as Maine Coons, with maybe a smidge of some sort of wild cat ancestry, like Savannah Cats or something, to add in some height. So adult Needlepaw as drawn here completely dwarfs her family, and has the bulky, fluffy, tufted-ear build of a Maine Coon. Granted, Tree, Violetshine, and Rootpaw are all kinda on the small side, but it's still clear how completely huge Needlepaw is compared to her family here.
Needlepaw seems more chill than her brother, so I showed her as looking calmly content with her family here. Tree is looking at his daughter with a fond expression. He's perfectly aware of how much she resembles his mother, who he still can't forgive for abandoning him, but he would never blame his daughter for resembling Moonlight so much. He's proud of her and loves her no matter what she looks like, hence his loving expression to her here. Violetshine is a good mama, so she's chatting happily with Needlepaw here. Rootspring is looking off in the distance worrying about plot-related drama, as is the fate of a protagonist like him. :P
Depicted here also is a ghostly Moonlight checking in on her son's family. She seemed rather proud in life, and rather snappish at her son even after he called her out on abandoning him, but she did seem at least a little guilty for it. So I decided to show her here looking with regret on the granddaughter who shares so much of her appearance, but who won't remember her fondly becaue of how she treated Needlepaw's father. I had fun playing with the ghostly effects for Moonlight and figuring out how to make them differ from my StarClan designs. ^^
Overall, I'm really happy with how this turned out. :D I hope Needlepaw gets a cool warrior name when her time comes. Needletuft, maybe? Needlestorm? Needleleaf?

I had a pair of warriors ocs called nettletuft and dustfur in fanclans where they all had powers, and they had this rivalry where nettle wanted to prove he was stronger because nettletuft was partially deaf and had to work hard to prove he could be a warrior apprentice, but dustfur was made an apprentice despite being a kittypet and got resentful. nowadays id change 3 things: change name to needletuft, add a protective element bc they were friends when dustfur was a kittypet, and make it gay
needletuft does sound nicer and hell yeah make everything gay

3, 4, 8!
3. Dealing With Trauma Unhealthily Award
HMMMM EVENINGSTAR. I can’t spoil WHY for those who are in the rp. Elle knows though,,,, Also Needletuft. Try to usurp the leader isn’t the best way to get everyone to like you when you are self conscious about being the best when you were bullied for being half clan😔👊
4. Lost a Parent The Youngest
I have a few characters… maybe Eclipsewing? She lost her dad before she was even born.
8. Best Monologue?
So far:
“I’m a good cat! I’m an excellent healer! I’ve always been at BluffClan’s best interests! And you’re a fool for doubting me!” - Bellmoon
EDIT: JUST REALIZED I NEVER ACTUALLY POSTED THIS????

climb, since needletail is not her official clan-given name, but was instead given to her by the rouges, what name do you think rowanstar would have given her?
well i mean, i think she named herself? the kin don’t have warrior ceremonies/names so i think she was just like fuck it I'm gonna name myself
that being said -tail is a really lame suffix LOL. needleclaw, needletuft, needlestrike all would have been more suited for her imo. rowanstar might have given her a suffix related to travel? considering she brought the “prophecy kits” back as an apprentice. so maybe needlestep, needlepath, needlefoot etc

Alderheart for the AU ask game
How about an au where Alderpaw and Needlepaw, after finding the kids, hey lost on their way back and can't find the clans.
They raise Violetkit and Twigkit, giving them showing names and training them themselves. They also give eachother warriors names. Needlepaw becomes Needletuft, and Alderpaw becomes Aldersong. Twigpaw also mainly terrains at a medicine cat, because reading AVoS I thought it would've been really interesting if she had become a medicine cat, and I also headcanon her as aroace.
One day, they get lost in twolegplace after being chased by two dogs, and encounter Tigerheart, who is looking for his mate Dovewing.
I'd love to answer more asks! Any character! These are really fun and I love writing aus :)

hey so in your loner alderheart, needletail au, does alderpaw/heart still get visions from starclan or is he pretty much cut off?
He's cut off. After the mess that was his first prophecy, there were problems on both sides. StarClan didn't really have any reason to send him a prophecy, and they assumed he was dead for a long time, and just hadn't passed on to StarClan.
Aldersong harbored a lot of guilt after his first prophecy. He felt like he had both SkyClan and StarClan.
Luckily he worked to overcome that and be happy with himself, thanks to Needletuft, Squirrelstar, Twigflight, and Violetheart (and a little bit of hawkwing, Jayfeather, and Tree)
