That’s rough, buddy.
Meanwhile, I’m still waiting in Cruel Season so I can experience the expanded mode settings at their full potential.

Lifegen is more akin to an rpg with a focus on dialogue and fostering relationships with npcs. And clangen itself is more like a colony builder, but more like dwarf fortress where you can only basically oversee and dont have direct control of each pip Some people made self imposed challenges that kill your cats and that could be more of a roguelike experience. But theres so much rng that its hard to make a skill based challenge

I've been playing a different clan (Lichenclan) to test out the new update, since that one is on expanded mode. I wrote down the events of what happened up to 115 moons.
- Dewpuddle who was probably one of my favorite cats appearance wise (split twocolor black and white with copper eyes), died very early on, which sucks. - A rogue named Half joined the clan and later became deputy. He died though. - Mudtail, who was the deputy before Half had his leg amputated because it was infected. - We found a abandoned kit named Bluekit, who came our medicine cat, Bluebee. She was born with one leg missing. - Mudtail retired early, I'm assuming because of his injury. I'm guessing cats can retire early if they are disabled, because he wasn't even senior aged at the time. - Murknibble killed Willowgleam. - Our leader Burnetstar became mates with Murknibble and had 3 kits. Murknibble died a horrible death later. 2/3 of the kits are dead too. One (Bramblepaw) died as apprentice, and the other (Fleckdapple) was murdered. The only living one as of now is Basilrunner. - Rattletuft, a very old kittypet (272 moons when he joined!) joined the clan. He didn't live for very long though, he died of old age 4 moons later. - There was a famine (which was my fault because I timeskipped without checking how much prey there was) which killed multiple cats, and Burnetstar lost one of her lives. - Burnetstar later got together with Karmawool and had a litter of kits. - One of the kits, Rainpatch, died from a festering wound. - Bluebee found a dead queen named Lotus and took in her kits. (One of them is deaf.) - Burnetstar and Karmawool had a second litter of kits. - KARMAWOOL DIED- I LITERALLY JUST FINISHED WRITING THIS AND DECIDED TO TIMESKIP ONCE AND HE WAS DEAD - AND ONE OF HIS KITS (From the second litter) DIED TOO (Rip Wheatkit) - Bluebee had three kits. - Burnetstar died from old age and Flydapple(star) became the new leader. - Blazepaw (Lotus's deaf kit) was murdered. HE BARELY EVEN GOT TO BE A APPRENTICE!

So after finally getting LifeGen fixed (my file for HollyClan wouldn't run), apparently settling on an island was a terrible decision, because not only are cats being dragged to sea, but they seem to be murdering each other more than usual.

Okay, so this current run started with Feathersmoke, and long story short, their descendant Shrubpelt ended up murdering her half-brother's mate and then she had kits with her victim's sister. Shrubpelt also comes from a family of murderers, Feathersmoke included. The cat I'm playing as right now, Hornetthrift—Shrubpelt's mother and former mentor—was also exiled for murder.
Meanwhile, Hornetthrift's second mate Foggysand (her first mate also turned out to be a murderer, but I think they might've broken up before them) just had three kits with her new mate. Foggysand is also the sister of Hornetthrift's victim, Splashpelt.
And just as I was about to post this, Foggysand was murdered by Shrubpelt! His own stepson, I'm dying lol!

So Shrubpelt was eventually discovered as a murderer, was shunned by the Clan, and then left on their own accord not long after giving birth to her kits with her now-dead mate Glowfire, who was killed by greencough.

And at 194 moons, Hornetthrift is finally dead! And they had so many kits and grandkits that I think I'm just gonna play as the latest descendant next, which is little Lightningkit.

I currently have 34 cats in the Dark Forest. It used to be 35, but one of them regretted their actions, so I allowed them back into StarClan.
Edit: Oooh! Okay, so one of my Clanmates, Wigglebutt (yes, really) killed two cats already, including punishing the Clan leader's daughter, Archfur, a little too harshly. The second cat they killed, Wolfspeckle, wasn't mourned by another Clanmates, Ridgedapple, which I'm choosing to interpret as them having been in league together. Wigglebutt was then murdered and Ridgedapple didn't care, so for a moment, I thought she may have been the culprit; turns out it was Broccoli, Archfur's other mother!
Okay, I guess Ridgedapple just lacks empathy, because this is they second time they've laughed at a cat's death and weren't the culprit. Instead, she (Reefspots) was killed by her own Clan leader.

Or any details about it? the devs said it "wasn't a priority" and last I checked, didn't actively have anyone in development of it. ik they want to have it out still, but I think they are working on a few more systems before they really start working on it ^^

So I think I've found my favorite LifeGen cat so far in terms of story and that's Duskheart of HollyClan. Like with all my other LifeGen MCs, she's descended from my first cat (in this case, Feathersmoke) and I already mentioned that several cats in this family are murderers, so I wanted to play around with Duskpaw a bit and have her train with the Dark Forest, except this time, she drags her friend Apricotpaw along with her. Eventually, Duskheart and Apricotvalley become mates and fairly loyal cats to HollyClan all things considered, they soon had four kits, and Duskheart died shortly after in a fire alongside her sister, Skynose.

Here's more events in Lichenclan up until 150 moons.
- A rogue named Crested joined the clan. - Both of Lotus's children became warriors. - A rogue named Ollie joined as a medicine cat. It's nice to have another medicine cat, hopefully he doesn't instantly die like Blazepaw did. - Mudtail died, which is really sad because he was the last of my clan founders. Poor guy had been through a lot, at least he can rest now. - Heavyrustle confessed to murdering Fleckdapple. - Meadowpelt brought some kits to the clan, one of them has little heart patterns, which is adorable. - WHAT I EXACTLY SAID I DIDN'T WANT TO HAPPEN TO OLLIE HAPPENED. He litterly was alive for only two moons. - Burntpollen was murdered by Basilrunner. - Brindepaw has become a medicine cat apprentice. Considering what happened to my last two medicine cats, this probably isn't a good sign. - The herbs keep going bad. At least Brindlepaw seems to be breaking the medicine cat curse. - Bluebee had another litter of kits, this time with her mate Basilrunner. - Brindlepaw earned her medicine cat name, Brindleswan. It seems like she'll actually stay alive for awhile. - Bluebee became mates with Heavyrustle and they immediately broke up afterwards. Then they got back together again. - One of the kits got kittencough, which I didn't know was even in the game.

I swear I remember one of my cats having a litter where there were dead kits, but I've checked the official Clangen Tumblr and they say that's not a feature and never will be. Which perplexes me because I specifically remember checking Starclan to see if there was any kits there and there weren't any. I'm playing Sablesteel's fan edit, so maybe that could have come from there? That or I somehow am misremembering all of this. Also, my cats always start dying when they reach ~150 moons. As of writing this, my oldest cat (Worm, 164 moons) just was killed by a badger. Update on this, I'm pretty sure I know what happened now. I was probably misremembering things. There were never any stillborn kits, it was actually from the event where you find a abandoned kit and take it to the Clan, but it dies later. That's why I remembered checking StarClan, because I was checking to see if it was there.

So this turned out to be far longer than anticipated, just know that the entire time, I was literally eating popcorn. Auburnpurr has had an... interesting life. Basically he was in love with his Clanmate Shimmerstripe, who became mates with Auburnpurr's brother Algaeback, who'd become a warrior before him. Auburnpurr then became mates with Shimmerstripe's sister Currenttoe, but then proceeded to have an affair with Shimmerstripe anyway; Currenttoe then broke up with him. Algaeback also became deputy at around this, Auburnpurr killed him and was immediately caught, mated with Shimmerstripe and even had enough time to have kits with her before being exiled, during which both Currenttoe and Shimmerstripe die by what I think was drowning after the camp flooded. During his shunning, one of his kits, Bonekit, was also killed by his own brother Shrubtrail.
Auburnpurr was eventually let back in, reconnected with his kits, earned the trust of the Clan leader and deputy enough to become a mentor of one of the deputy's kits, managed to become deputy of the Clan himself under the recently named Toadstar, fell in love with Toadstar's mate flicker, and just as I was beginning to consider making them poly if it wasn't done automatically... Flicker kills Auburnpurr's daughter Tumbleflip, and not long after Flicker is shunned and dies in what I think had been a fire, Toadstar goes on and becomes mates with Shrubtrail! Whose own crime still hasn't been discovered at the time of me posting this, btw!
Instead, Shrubtrail has had Toadstar's kits and Auburnpurr recently retired, so now the brothers are technically sharing a den since they're both elders. One of Auburnpurr's former apprentices, Crestedspeckle, was also killed by a poisonous creature, his other former apprentice Hollowsquid, one of Toadstar's daughters, killed Auburnpurr's granddaughter Rindlefreckle, and Auburnpurr also recently invited a former loner to join the Clan. His name is Envy. I wish I was joking lol! Apparently he's a thief and a hoarder.
And now Shrubtrail has become mates with Auburnpurr's former apprentice Basilripple, who'd been Tumbleflip's mate and the father of her kits, and is also Toadstar's brother. He's a queen, btw, so the fact that Shrubtrail secretly committed infanticide seasons ago... Wow! I actually checked the relationships and apparently Auburnpurr had been in love with Basilripple and vice versa, but anyway, Shrubtrail has two mates now and the universe is laughing at Auburnpurr.
Okay, Auburnpurr has now had kits with the elderly warrior Lindenrain. Very cute. And Shrubtrail had a second litter with Toadstar before dying in his sleep, meaning he got away with him crime! I sent him to the Dark Forest immediately! Auburnpurr also became a medicine cat recently, alongside his remaining daughter with Shimmerstripe Pondcurrent and her mate Brightslash, so that's kinda sweet, but he also lost the last apprentice he had when he'd been deputy, Graystripe (yes, really). She was killed by Tumbleflip and Basilripple's remaining biological kit Greendrip, who had also been Graystripe's adopted sister after Tumbleflip took her and her sister Ravenfin in.
So the same moon Pouncecurrent dies giving birth, Greendrip confesses to Basilripple to killing Graystripe and Basilripple immediately told the rest of the Clan.
Oh my god, history is just repeating itself lol! So Graystripe had a mate named Coneswoop, who eventually managed to move on from her grief and even have kitties... Guess who the father is. In other news, Greendrip now has a denmate in Hollowsquid; she was heard muttering in her sleep by Rimefern, Toadstar's granddaughter. Greendrip was exiled not long after.
And after 180 moons, Clan age 2003, Auburnpurr died in his sleep and was mourned by his youngest daughters, Silkheather and Whiskertail.
Besides murdering Algaeback, having kits with Shimmerstripe, and being let back into the Clan, most of this happened automatically lol!

Usually I don't bother with reading the nine lives ceremonies, but since Silkheather ended up becoming Silkstar, I had to check if Auburnpurr would be present and he was! In fact, both his parents were, as was his first mate Anemonefur; he gave him a life for sympathy, while Auburnpurr and Lindenrain gave him a life for protection and empathy respectively. I was initially confused why they seemed somewhat hesitant, but then I checked his profile and saw his mentor had been Greendrip (died in exile, btw), who taught him to be cold towards others, and yeah, everything makes sense now. Anyway, Silkstar led the Clan for a long time, died of old age at 187 moons old, and was succeeded by his daughter Mottledfin, who proceeded to appoint her nephew Aspenbreeze (who is only 17 moons old at the time of me posting this btw!) as deputy.

So I don't even know if this is a glitch or something because of how old HollyClan is (2198 moons at the time of posting), but now the Clan has two deputies, Emberleaf (Greendrip's great-granddaughter) and... Aspenbreeze, who'd been ousted out of his position as deputy after his involvement in the murder of his medicine cat cousin Caveblink had been revealed.

I didn't know cats could be punished for committing murderer. My Clan doesn't care at all about cats killing each other. One of my cats, Meadowpelt killed two cats including his own brother (Blazepaw) and still went to StarClan when he died. I don't even know how they can even go to The Dark Forest. I didn't know they could leave on their accord own either. The closest thing I've ever got to that was them getting lost after being trapped by twolegs.

Cats being punished for murder is only a thing LifeGen added just now, but it actually added the Dark Forest and even the Unknown Residence awhile ago, so if you're not seeing it, then you're likely playing on an older version, otherwise it's very easy to send your cats to the Dark Forest by just clicking the "Dangerous" tab after they die.

^^ it's also Lifegen exclusive; Clangen will not punish murders, send cats to the DF ever, or redeem DF cats to StarClan (all those things you have to do as the player)
Also popped in to say I just got FOUR mass extinctions in 30 moons playing IvyClan, including TWO EXTINCTION EVENTS IN ONE MOON (badger and fire, 23 cats dying between the two) and this is after the last 30 moons, where two cats were murdered, the first murders in over 500 moons.

this is strange... I've only gotten this event twice before, but it was with adult warriors, not an apprentice. (technically she just became a warrior.) usually it was attacking another clanmate, I think? this fits tho because my leader has the unshakable DF link. my deputy's now turned to bloodthirsty from being charismatic.
