have you added any of your own characters in the ddd!au ? how do they interact with the canon cats?
I haven’t but I’m thinking about it! I don’t really have any of my own wc characters except for a couple I’ve just thought about a little bit. I’m still pretty new to posting wc stuff!
I have one idea that’s just. a shitpost that I think would be really funny. I was brainstorming a pirate au where each clan is a crew (maybe of privateers) and leaders are captains, deputies are first mates. I also found out that other ppl have had similar ideas too!
but in that draft, there’s just a line that says “sealegs” because it works as a name and was funny to me. but it could also have some meaning — finding your sea legs, etc. I think sealegs (they/them) would be a cat who isn’t from the clans at all and either ended up in a clan late in life or somehow wandered into starclan or the dark forest and got tangled up in clan nonsense.
the duplex isn’t exclusive to clan cats — I’m deciding that bc the idea that only clan cats “get” to go to starclan icks me out. maybe sealegs is the first true outsider they meet, and that’s how they find other wings of the duplex! that way, aus can exist in the duplex alongside canon which I think is cool!
I also like the name suncloud. I have some v vague ideas about who she’d be. I’m just starting to dip my toes into the cat oc waters lol (I do have a lot of my own characters from screenwriting tho! just no fully-formed cats yet)
I also want to add some starclan cats to the duplex! I’m reading dawn of the clans for the first time rn, and I really like the idea of the original clan founders showing up there in the distant future because they’ve been “forgotten” because the individual clans dissolve.
