Yokai Watch Au - Tumblr Posts
That drawing is so adorable, I wish I could draw like that, given my drawing is kinda wobbly.
Goober
You befriended Magonyan!
The medal you got was sent to the Medallium!
encouraging you yo-kai watch x warrior cats do it go go go >:3
Anon, that's very cringe. There's no way I'm gonna make an enitre AU based on two diffrent franchises that are no way simailr to each other. What is this? Middle school?
Anyway this post is very long and depends on how well this does I may or may not spew out more
Okay, for this to work for me I changed a bit of WC lore and junk for this, Yokai are still dead folks you can't see that affects the way the world But instead of inspiriting, it's like someone whispering advice in your ear, like "That mouse looks pretty tasty, and the clan already of fresh-kill already. Who's gonna miss a little mouse?" more powerful spirits can sometimes affect the world physically, like frosted paw prints being seen in the middle of spring or warriors being tripped over nothing. They're just called spirits in this AU, dead cats that weren't bad enough to go to the dark forest but still had unfinished business in the living world and won't walk among the stars until they're satisfied.
Now there was a balance between starclan, the dark forest, the roaming spirits, and the clans. But recently, the dark forest has been recruiting roaming spirirts, so that's not good!
Thankfully Starclan received a prophecy that a warrior born with the ability to see the dead will save the clans and the afterlife from total choas, one problem though... There are 4 cats who fit the description, and the prophecy only calls for one.
--------------------------------------------
Okay, I autismed a lil too hard and gave the four lil backstories and struggles for this AU like im bouta write a 6 book in length series with arcs and stuff. Get outta here!
Anyway, Shrewpaw isn’t actually a real contender for being the prophecy kitty because Whisper gave him his ability to see the dead and the prophecy calls for the cat that was born with that gift. So while Shrepaw and Whisper try to find the real prophet kitty among the other three, they’re also trying to dodge the rest of Starclan from discovering this secret. Because not only is it basically illegal for starclan cats to pass down powers without approval first, but they could’ve just messed up the entire prophecy and doomed the clans.
You will see later that I tend to name warrior cats after what they look like and the suffix of their skill/personailty
-------------------------------------------
Lavenderpaw has the strongest chance of being the cat in the prophecy, She was able to see and interact with the spirits of dead cats ever since she was born. But, she ditched her warrior’s training to become a medicine cat. And that did not make Starclan happy, so they sent down Ottersnarl to convince her to be a warrior again (It’s not working). Lavenderpaw tries to ignore Otter’s nagging and focus on her training, but Starclan is persistent and desperate. Lavenderpaw doesn’t care however, she’s not going to let a bunch of dead guys tell her how to live her life. It must be someone else, there are three other cats that could see the dead!
-----------------------------------------
Fumika is a doing a Rusty from into the wild. Okay to give a lil more detail, Fumi recently was dumped into the forest by her old twolegs, alone and scared Fumi is guided by a starclan cat to clan territory where she joins Springclan. Despite joining and training to become a warrior with her fellow clanmates, Fumika is stuck with the “Lazy, dumb, useless kittypet whose more trouble than she’s worth” Label. It didn’t help that she fought to keep her name instead of getting a traditional warrior’s one, so she has to train extra hard for her clan to not only accept her but to see her as more than a “Stupid” kittypet.
-----------------------------------------
Buck was the first cat Starclan noticed was special. Not only was he pretty skilled as an apprentice, but he could kinda interact with the spirits around him. He just needed guidance. Unfortunately, after his sister disappeared from thin air and is presumed dead by his entire clan, Buck runs away and denounces Starclan. There’s no way after moons of searching that his sister is gone! There’s no way she’s dead, he never saw her in his dreams when he used to talk to Starclan. She must’ve been taken by aliens or something!
fan fact, he lives in an abandoned shed!
-----------------------
Here's a graph of who have the stongest 6th sense left is the weakest right is the strongest
[Fumika < Buck < Sherwpaw < Lavenderpaw]
and here's some miscellaneous stuff
Jibanyan and Whisper are the only ones who know how Shrewpaw got his gift.
Jibs has little markings because he feels so werid to have only his fur and not have his collar or haramaki.
Also I'm debating on naming Jibanyan either Flamepaw or Redpaw because I like the gag of Tomunyan being a copy of Jibanyan in certain ways (I wanna name Tom Firepaw because of this)
also also, Buck and Lavender are in different clans
Shrew is the only one who has his eyes glow when he's communicating to the dead because i thought it would be cool
What the dog doin?
Idk if anyone remembers from my last blog or over on twitter but I absolutely ADORE Jinmenken ( aka Manjimutt) with all my heart and HATE how the anime treated this pupper. He is my top favorite Yokai and biggest comfort character too, he literally means so much to me 🥺
It’s been a real long time since I last drew him so I decided to draw him a bit to get back used to drawing him again. I then decided to him with Fumika’s ( Katie’s ) dad since I actually have this huge AU where Fumi actually got the watch instead of Keita ( Nate ) and in the part of the story where she incounters Jinmenken, I see befriending him and after some more stuff happening he ends up at her house and her folks end up seeing him, but as a kinda “ugly” dog instead of a human thanks to a special collar for dog Yokai. It’s a lot to explain so I’ll ofc go into more detail later, but for now I can say that after Fumi explains that she “found” Jinmenken needing help, she decided to help the pup until her and her parents found his actual owner. The mom is fine with this but the dad just bonds with Jinmenken fast and the two become inseparable ^^;; Again there are details missing but I will explain better later <:3
But yeah! Just some really cute doodles of this adorable puppy 🥹
Here we have another (kinda) familiar face, Minister Squisker! I created this design for him years ago since Level5 has only ever shown off him as a redesign of Mckrakens monster form, and that never felt right to me, so I decided to give him an actual design :3 as well as a size chart. Now for a bit about him ->
Minister Squisker; as his name suggests, is a very important yokai in the royal court, he was also very close friends with the late Ancient Lord Enma, as well as his family being close with the Enma tribe in general. Squisker is a rather stern and rough sounding yokai but only ever is hard on others to try and bring the best out of them ( Mckraken being a good example), this has given him a reputation with outsiders as seemingly being a bit of a hard ass. Squisker has always been very supportive of his younger sister; Marina, especially when she decided to marry a yokai not of high society, he only cares for her and his extended families happiness.
Squisker does enjoy some down time surprisingly to most, when not hard at work he enjoys taking strolls around the palace, hanging out with either Ancient Enma ( usually involving drinks ) or being with Marina, Octavious and young Mckraken at their humble farmhouse a few town away. Squisker; while being a very supposedly open yokai, hates humans with a burning passion, no one, not even Marina or Ancient Enma, knows why the large squid has such a hatred for humans. The only soul who knows the reasoning is Squisker himself, which he had long forgotten until he was reminded one fateful night, one that he wishes he could forget.
