Ungulate's Cattails OC Storage

[PlagueUngulate]

Update: I believe the references for my characters should be visible now. Please inform me if they are not visible

Hey

This is just a place for me to keep track of and share all of my Cattails OCs. The Cattails Amino is very inactive so having a more-active platform to share them would probably help motivate me to do so. 

Feel free to comment or ask about them. I'll gladly answer!!

Update: Previously, Magpie's ref was invisible to other unsers. I have since used Imgur to try and make his reference visible. Please inform me if this works


This is Magpie!! He's a shy little guy who runs a library for the Wildwood colony (Guardian Colony? Idk I still haven't played the Alpha yet). He typically keeps to himself, preferring the company of his books over other cats. However, if you break down his shell, he has a very sweet interior. I imagine he'd be good friends with Krampy and Glimmer.

His design is based off of the Eurasian magpie, also known as the Common magpie (Scientific name being Pica pica). Reference image is taken from Wikipedia.

I'll probably update this post once I finally play Wildwood. This is also a pretty rough reference sheet, made simply to get his design on paper. Most of his anatomy is correct, but the back legs are pretty messed up. They aren't supposed to be that messed up.

This is Rye!! She is whatever the cat equivalent of a teenager is when the move to the Wildwood happened. Before that, she was raised in the Mountain Domain. She was found abandoned as a kitten, and adopted by another one of my ocs, Mal. She was raised with two other adopted siblings, a sister named Snwoy, and a brother named Dunkleosteus. She is quite anxious, though not as anxious as her brother. 

I'm not sure how much magic is allowed in the Cattails universe. We know that Oricle and Nil have some magical properties, but the laws regarding magic in Cattails are not well defined. If large amounts of magic are allowed, Rye would have some kind of psychological powers. I haven't decided what exactly her powers would be, but mind reading would be most likely.

I'm curious how you're adding your reference images. Are you inserting the images with an address from an external website like imgur? They might not be loading because they've been linked incorrectly.

[PlagueUngulate]

I was emailing the images to myself, right clicking on the picture, copying the link address, and then pasting said link adress into the "Insert picture" option. I had previous tried downloading the references after I emailed them to myself, but the files were always too large to post as an attachment. The user Spottedleaf reccomended I use imgur, so when I have free time I will try to replace the pictures using that. 

[StormClawPonyRises]

Yeah it sounds like the email method doesn't work properly. Definitely give imgur a try instead!

This is Orchid! She was my first ever Cattails character, being the first one I ever made a save file for. 

She is a muscular, battle scarred cat with a lion-like appearence. She has a large mane of fur and a tuft of fur on her tail.

Orchid used to be a very hyperactive kitten, often destroying stuff in her old owner's home. This eventually led to her being abandoned. This leads into the events of Cattails' tutorial. Orchid chooses to joins The Forest Colony. She befriends her neighbors, and becomes especially close with Missy and Lyris.

Lyris was one of the few cats able to calm Orchid's rambunctious attitude. The two eventually started dating and got married, though they never had kittens. 

When Orchid is not fighting in border skirmishes or spending time with friends, she is likely mining. She loves the thrill that comes with combat. During one of her many battles, one of her eyes got slashes out. She now covers the injury with an eye-patch, in part because it looks really cool.

When Ember had their kitten, Spark, Orchid became a mentor-like figure to Spark, seeing a bit of herself in them. 

Orchid was one of the many cats who moved to the Wildwood. During this move, she had to leave Lyris behind. She now spends much of her time with Ember and Spark. After the move to the Wildwood, Orchid's attitude becomes much less energetic. 

I'll likely elaborate on this description later. But for now, it works. 




This reference sheet is considerably older than the others I've posted, being the first I've made of my Cattails ocs.

Im sorry if this is rude, but why does Magpie, in the second picture, look like the iconic borzoi "let me do it for you" dog.

dont worry it makes me like him even more

[PlagueUngulate]

The resemblance to the borzoi dog meme is simply a coincidence, as I made Magpie's reference in Early December, before the borzoi meme became popular. I intended to give him a socially-awkward expression, as Magpie is quite reserved and does not express his emotions a lot.

Do not worry, you did not come off as rude! I appreciate your comment!
