[EDIT: I’ve gotten a few comments asking where the song is from, I made it in GarageBand! No extended version unfortunately, I’m not a musician so this being somewhat catchy was very much a fluke on my part lol]

This is just a quick little video I wanted to make! I've got a few different things in the works right now, but I wanted this one to be done first, since it's got a major plot point for Mudpaw's story! I'm not super happy with the whole thing, but I DO like the animated bit and the ending :)

I used Procreate to do all the drawing/animating, and put it together in iMovie!


Characters in order of appearance:
Owlpounce (clan medicine cat)
Foxjaw (clan deputy [left])
Larkstar (clan leader [right])
Mudpaw (newly-mentorless apprentice)


Story:
In a tragedy the clan couldn't have foreseen, a senior warrior of the clan, Wrentail, dies in an accidental fall from a waterfall. His apprentice, Mudpaw, is left without a mentor. When Owlpounce, the clan's medicine cat, finds a flower growing in the creek's muddy bank, she knows it's an omen from Starclan. She takes on the young cat as her apprentice, in hopes that finding a new purpose will help him come to terms with his mentor's death. However, not everything is as it seems....

Starclan tried to provide a warning to the clan in the form of an omen. Wrentail's death was no accident, and Mudpaw was directly responsible for his death. When the omen Starclan sends is misinterpreted, though, it ends up having wildly different effects than intended.












Starclan: oh, I know! let's send an omen to the clan about this mudpaw guy. i mean he literally killed his mentor. *makes ghost pipe flower grow in mud* yeah thatll work. it's a GHOST flower, it's coming from MUD, aka, mudpaw made a ghost. this is fool-proof.

Owlpounce: ooo is that a ghost pipe flower? those are good for treating anxiety! wait, in the mud? is this saying that Mudpaw could heal from his anxieties and the death of his mentor through herbs? new apprentice time????

Starclan:

Owlpounce: i cant wait to tell larkstar
