wanted to draw an older rustle/crag with their kids all grown up and was surprisingly satisfied with how it turned out! these guys were also randomly generated by clangen :)

a lil more about the kids! all five were adopted: abysspool, opalshine, and jasperheart were all part of one litter. ashenfade and nightingalepaw were technically from seperate litters in-game, but since they were both only one-kit litters i made them littermates for lore purposes. for more about their parents and their Clan go here.

Opalshine (white tom): tunneler. big, dumb, gentle giant. also very mischievous. think cloudtail if cloudtail was slightly less of a little shit

Abysspool (black she-cat): also a tunneler. blind from birth. total sweetheart and a ray of sunshine. usually smarter than her brother until they’re left alone together--then neither of them has any brain cells. definitely kept rustle and crag on their toes as kittens

Ashenfade (light brown she-cat): scout. in terms of personality she takes after cragwhisker a lot: calm, cool and level-headed. she’s also closest with her big sister jasperheart.

Jasperheart (reddish she-cat): day-hunter. she’s the one that takes the most after rustletwig: quiet, cautious, and clever. didn’t cause her parents nearly as much trouble as her littermates--she much preferred to snuggle or listen to stories than go adventuring. even today she still has a great appreciation for history.

Nightingalepaw (tabby and white she-cat): died in a greencough epidemic early in her apprenticeship, which rustletwig blames himself for (herbtenders are also taught to heal, just in case the medicine cats get overwhelmed). though they can’t see her, she still keeps watch over her family. i imagine if she’d lived she’d have become a scout, but then later realized she was better as a healer and became a medicine cat. her full name would have been Nightingalewing.
