MoonClan's Prophecy- Fun Facts

Fun Facts

• MoonClan's Prophecy is based off a role play started back in February of 2011. It ran for years, but has long since been deleted.

• Scorchfur's original fur color was supposed to be orange, but due to a mix up, the fur color was accidentally switched to gray.

• In the RPG, a clan called SunClan was added as another clan months after MoonClan was made. It was deleted because it was useless, but would have been in the book if it had gotten more attention.

• Kindheart and Lilyfur were supposed to originate from another clan, CliffClan, that collapsed and they moved on to find a new clan. Kindheart and Lilykit arrived at MoonClan and weren't supposed to be related, but to add less confusion to the book, they were made to be like they were born and raised in MoonClan, and Lilyfur became Kindheart and Scorchfur's kit so she could have an explained family in the book.

• Sootlife and Lilacslash had two other sisters, Moonfeather and Cloverfur, but they were highly unneeded and were cut out of the book because there were too many females and overall cats in the clan.

• Moonstar was originally going to be mates with Blackpelt.

• Marshfur's original name in the RPG is Marshmellon as a joke.

• Scorchfur was not always the Deputy of MoonClan. Before him was a she-cat named Stormtail.

• Moonstar was supposed to have a scar over her left eye, which left it gray and blind, but through the process of the RPG it was forgotten and later discarded.

• Oak was named Jack in the RPG, but because the cats can't understand twolegs, it was changed to a more natural name, Oak, for the book.

• Blossomflower was supposed to be Mossflower, but the person who played her forgot and her name was accidentally changed to Blossomflower. Instead of changing it back, the name stuck.

• The original prophecy for MoonClan was, "Moon and day will come together, and Two will be born. They will have the power of sun and moon, day and night, in their paws. But a dark thing approaches. It will uproot the trees and destroy the forest, and only the Two can stop it in its tracks." After some thought, it was decided it was too long and not a very good prophecy to begin with, so it was changed to, "The blazing snow and the flickering flame will have powers greater than StarClan, and they will come together to melt the darkness that threatens MoonClan and restore peace to the forest."

• In the RPG, Sparrowfeather received the prophecy through a shooting star at dusk, when both the moon and the sun could still be seen which hinted at the original prophecy that stated that "Moon and Day will come together." For the book, though, she received the new and improved prophecy through a dream.
