Hello all! I am Cryptid/Sam, I use they/he/she pronouns (pretty much any pronouns)!
My main Warriors blog is @cryptidclaw which is also where Whisperingclan started!
Whisperingclan started out with me posting a line up of designs for the whole clan at the end of year 1 + descriptions for the clan and the cat's backstories! This was inspired by the youtube trend of doing something similar but in video format.
After this however I fell in love with the clan and wanted to join in with everyone else doing moon-ly updates for their clans! originally I was just posting the updates on my main wc blog @cryptidclaw but I have decided to move Whisperingclan over to their own blog!
I will be rebloging all of the previous updates from my wc main over to here and will post all new updates here!
Master Post of all main updates!
Allegiances!
Family Tree!
Character Asks are OPEN! However I will only choose a few to answer sorry!

Clan Origins + Gameplay Summaries below!
~~Origins~~
Most of Whisperingclan's founders were a part of a coup in their origin clan, Roaringclan, to make Tempeststar, at the time Tempestwhorl, deputy or leader... they were instead defeated and banished.
The founders had wandered together through the territories outside of the clans picking up a few members along the way... as they drew nearer to the mountains they began to hear strange whispers on the wind. feeling compelled to follow these whispers they found themselves in a cave deep in the mountains filled with crystals that seemed to whisper with a chorus of their Starclan ancestors.
That night they slept in the cave, and in her dreams Tempeststar was named a leader of a new clan, Whisperingclan, by Starclan themselves. The new clan now calls themself the clan closest to Starclan, and they have made their camp within the Whispering Cave claiming that they are its protectors and the only cats who can be trusted with it's power.
However... Is the Whispering Cave truly safe? can Starclan and their guide be trusted? Is the clan truly so holy? or are they simply greedy for power.
The Territories + all Clans intro!

Gameplay:
Playing on: Expanded Mode
Unmated cats can have kits
Same-sex breeding is on!
Leaders do not automatically chose their deputies
Experience-based graduation allowed
Cats can retire due to permanent condition (for now)
Warriors and elders can choose to become mediators
Occasionally I will do death rolls! (i do this whenever I feel like it- mostly for the plot)
How death rolls work:
Kits, Elders and the sick are close to the death and the Stars as they are weak. Due to this their spirits have the chance to accidentally travel to Starclan too early due to the thin veil between the living and the dead in the Whispering cave.
If i decide that the clan is getting too big I may roll for a chosen selection of cats, to see which of whom will die.
I will mostly use it to weed out some kits if there are too many babies.
This Blog is dedicated to posting updates for "Bignose's Home" a comic based on a lifegen playthrough with premade characters!
This comic will follow the general style of other Clangen comics, however it will differ in the fact that I do have an idea of where I want the story to go and I am using the events in game more as a suggestion!

You can call my Cryptid/Sam! I use he/they/she pronouns! I'm a 21 yr old graphic design student and am often very busy but I'm hoping to have enough time to update somewhat regularly!
My main Warriors blog is @cryptidclaw ! And I post non-warriors stuff @clowncryptids

Bignose's Origins:
Bignose appears in my previous comic @whispering-clan HOWEVER all events in the Whisperingclan comic are NO LONGER CANON as it is being rewritten! Bignose and his clan are no longer a part of Whisperingclan's story and Whisperingclan will not be in this comic. I wanted the chance to explore Bignose's story on its own and to it's full potential!
Bignose as a character originated before Whisperingclan and has been an OC of mine for a while, along with his mother and brother! He is one of my most beloved characters and I am very exited to give him a story!
I wanted to get back into the groove of drawing now that the semester is over! So I generated some random sprites in the Clangen Catmaker and drew some designs based off of em!
Might sell these as adopts if ppl are interested since i have no use for em at the moment! They were just fun to design :3
Maybe once I reach a point that I think is a good wrapping up point for this comic I will go back and rewrite this whole thing to be a better more cohesive story idk...
Why did Petuniastar exile Weedpatch and jaggedlark? Like I know they sided with the rebels but those were their mentors and it was kinda clear they were being manipulated.
Did Petuniastar let his emotions get the best of his judgement?
Yes, Petuniastar is a very emotional and rash person. I write him as more of a grey character he is neither good or bad. There is a slightly fair reason for some cats to have not agreed with him becoming leader too... however Tempeststar would have been worse, and is worse.
Petuniastar felt betrayed and unstable in his place as leader after the rebellion, he banished all the rebels including Jagged and Weed because he feared having cats who disagreed with him within his clan. He was also just angry, and he let's his anger get in the way of his decision making often.
He was wrong to banish two kids from the clan, and many Roaringclan cats dislike him for this. Though no one wants to start another rebellion after the last.
It is not, though I have thought about putting it up on some sort of webcomic site/app...
The main issue with that is that the older moons are not in a format that could easily be posted on one of these sites. I would have to reformat them and would probably just end up completely remaking them which I should not do... I'm already taking forever to make new pages I should not distract myself with past ones 😭
Hey I was wondering if you’d be fine with me editing out the text in your art so one, people can use them for fan stuff, and two, so people can enjoy your art! Credit will be given of course, I will mention you when I post it and any watermarks I see I will keep in the cropping.

Ya sure! Its super cool that there is such a strong fan community for these blogs now!!!
Reminder to all fans of my stuff, you can make fan content (still crazy to me that ppl do it, and I love it!) Just make sure to credit me!
