New Longstar AU - Decorations and accessories
Clan Decorations and Traditions behind them
The Clans are wild and colorful, and their traditional decorations and accessories are the one facet of Clan Culture that can usually identify a cat’s Clan from a distance.  It can be worn as a personal statement, as a hunting aid, and as armor in some cases.
Origins
The first recorded cat to decorate their fur was Bumble, a molly who joined Proto-Thunderclan to escape her abusive mate.  She wove flowers around her collar to mask it and muffle the jingle of the bell.  Her friend Turtle Tail then put petals on her own fur in solidarity, and then Thunder himself wore petals on his tail, and it spiraled from there.  With the passing moons, each clan began to tailor their accessories to their tastes, environment, and Roles.  Bumble was also the first recorded Crafter of the Clans, and lived out the rest of her days in relative peace, teaching others how to weave and create.
Tumblr media
Placement
The common placements of decorations are behind the ears, on the neck and shoulders, the back and flanks, and the tail.  Feathers behind the ears are taboo, for reasons no one in the Clans can remember.  Less common are the legs, face, and underbelly, as these would interfere with duties, the senses, and resting.
Healers
Moth Flight was the first Seer to decorate her fur, but the moth’s wing behind her ear never withered, and the heather was always in bloom.  Ever since, Healers have had plants from their clan in their fur, that do not fade or fall.  Each cat chooses their own decoration, but there are some general similarities from each Clan.
Thunderclan Healers generally choose leaves on their head and shoulders, Windclan wears an insect wing behind the ear and flower buds on the back, Riverclan has reeds and river weeds on their flanks and tail, and Shadowclan healers always have deathberries with whatever thorny vines or leaves they choose. (Ancient Skyclan chose white flowers and the leaves of the tallest tree in their territory. Modern Skyclan wear Leaf-fall leaves and collars of moss and berries)
Tumblr media
Thunderclan
The most common accessories for everyday wear are leaves, full flower blossoms, and petals.  Berry paint is used specifically for Ceremonial purposes and Gatherings, to show the fertility and abundance of their territory.  Tree bark is applied to fighters when they go to war, as an added layer of protection.  Plucked fur is gathered as well, but only for Leaders and to line nests in Leafbare.  About half of the clan uses everyday accessories.
Tumblr media
Shadowclan
With only a few cats currently feeling comfortable expressing themselves as Shadowclan cats after current events, this Clan has the fewest cats that decorate themselves.  Most décor is for hunting and Gatherings. Formerly, dry leaves and mushrooms were the norm, with glowing mushrooms being prized.  Mud is applied to Hunters, Trackers, and Brawlers before they leave the camp, and those headed to war will also paint themselves with berry juices to look more ferocious.  Items left on the territory or on the borders by Twolegs can be worn as trophies at Gatherings, but currently this is not done.  Blame Tiger”star” and Bloodclan for that.
Tumblr media
Riverclan
The bounties of the river and the shore are used by Riverclan.  Flowers found floating in the water, river weeds and cattail reeds, and rarely, shells and shining pebbles are worn woven into larger works. Reeds and river grasses are woven into fine decorations and armor for battle, and fish bones are attached to armor and Leader Gathering Garb only. As decorations easily get detached and float away, not many Riverclan cats wear everyday accessories.
Tumblr media
Windclan
A feather from the first catch is always worn by Windclan cats, for it is seen as lucky.  Cats that do not hunt (support roles and Healers) are bequeathed a feather either by their Leader, a family member, or a mate.  Woven grasses are common, both as everyday wear and armor.  Tunnelers wore moss on their backs to shield themselves from falling rocks, but that practice has slowly died out, with Elders and a few cats continuing it.  Nearly all cats in Windclan have everyday accessories.
Tumblr media
Ancient Skyclan
Historical Records show that Skyclan wore feathers on their tails and flanks most commonly, with leaves and flowers around the neck.  It is unclear from records if there was any significance to the placement or type of décor.
(Modern Skyclan keeps their collars, sometimes weaving mosses and flowers and berries into them to muffle them.  More traditional clan accessories are folded in, and scavenged items are very common as well)
(all the new cats are unidentified cats from the first arc! thanks @moths-wc-aus!)

As the title implies I have several AU ideas and can't seem to decide which one to start first.
Please note: All of the stories would happen before SkyClan gets driven out of the forest.
Dewstar's ambition: Dewkit is a young SkyClan kit with a great ambition: To become the best leader of his Clan, even greater than the great founder Skystar or his grandfather, wise old Whitestar.
After gaining his apprentice name, Dewpaw gets cocky during a training session with an older apprentice , causing her to get hurt worse than he thought was possible. As punishment Whitestar delays his warrior ceremony for two moons , causing Dewpaw's littermates to gain their names before him.
After finally becoming a warrior Dewpatch realizes that he's developing a crush on the she-cat he had injured but she doesn't feel the same way, instead pining after a tom from RiverClan. He really wants her to be his mate and comes up with a plan to gain her attention: He had to become the best mentor and then deputy. Will he succeed?
Hawkfoot's choice: Hawkfoot has lost her mate, the father of her three kits during a fight against ShadowClan and is anxious because she knows that they will have to fight for their lives sooner rather than later. So when a fellow WindClan queen, Daisytail tells her that she doesn't want to see her son dying needlessly , they come up with plan : Convince enough queens from both of the rival Clans so when the next fight inevitably breaks out , they will hopefully manage to convince the leaders to stop sending kits in battle too young.
Moons after succeeding with the plan she witnesses one of her sons saving a life of ShadowClan she-cat who is apparently expecting kits, nearly dying himself. The she-cat then reveals a shocking secret: The kits she's expecting are his and she wants to join WindClan.
Lavenderpelt's destiny: Lavenderpaw is a young ThunderClan apprentice with a kind heart and a knack for fighting. She especially loves to spar with her littermates and older apprentices.
After gaining her warrior name Lavenderpelt gets into an accident , breaking her leg which confines her in the medicine cat den for moons, causing her to fear that the leader will force her to become the next medicine cat, a role she never wanted.
One day she has a dream where she sees a mysterious tom who tells her that her destiny isn't to be a medicine cat, instead she will be remembered as one of the best warriors, but doesn't tell her anything more.
Who was that tom and how could Lavenderpelt become the warrior he predicted she'd be?
Troutstar's path: Troutfang is a young RiverClan warrior, full of energy and mischief. One day he gets seriously hurt during a play fight near a river when one of his friends accidentally pushes him into the water.
The experience causes Troutfang to become more reserved and cautious than before , affecting his ability to hunt and fight.
One day he sees a beautiful loner struggling to cross the stepping stones because of her pregnant belly. After helping her to the RiverClan territory she thanks him before padding away. He thinks that they will never meet again. However about half-moon later the patrol he's in comes across with the she-cat giving birth and helps her to the camp. Will she stay in the Clan or not?
Flowerstar's reign: After losing her sister, Mossfire in a fight for leadership of ShadowClan Flowerstem is grief-stricken but knows that the Clan needs her help. How will she react when an apparent sign from StarClan implies that she should be the next leader? What will happen when an outbreak of whitecough and greencough ravages the already shaken up Clan?
6. If you have another idea for an AU tell me.
