#Brightfur

[sublimedragontragedy]

Here is the huge year 1 line up for all of SpringClan!

21 kitties is a lot to draw, but I have so much fun, making them all! Unfortunately I have a rule that if a clan gets over 30 alive cats in camp, I’m gonna turn on extinction events to keep populations low.

Look at Hazyhail 😭🩷 my beautiful baby

Character writing meme: can I get Hilda, David, Frida, anddddd uhhhh whichever Warrior cat OC you’re thinking of right now

Pick a character I’ve written and I will explain the top ~three to five ideas/concepts/etc I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to accurately depicting them.

Hilda's stubborn to a fault! If she believes in something she'll go all the way, regardless of any danger or consequences. She summoned the dead for a book. She snuck out to a fairy mound for her dad.

She's got a lot of pride in what she does! Hilda will be genuinely upset if someone makes fun of the work she's doing, even if it's teasingly. A good example is how she takes a lot of Johanna's worrying as an insult when it's a mom trying to keep her daughter safe.

Ride or die but like. Literally. She will ride until she dies. She literally refused to stop a time worm from eating her because it made her neighbor happy. Again; the fucking fairy mound. She'll run with her friends to the end of the earth and then jump off to protect them.

Bad luck haunts this boy so fucking hard, he's just learned to accept it.

David is ride or die but also he's gonna complain about it. He's gonna complain so fucking hard. But he'll be there.

Unironically the brain cell of this group. I know Frida's the book-smart character but David is the one with the common sense and general 'hey let's maybe nooootttt risk our lives?'

The hothead of the trio. Frida likes things to go exactly as she planned and can get legitimately upset when they don't. She's a perfectionist and it shows.

Ride or die but like. In the sense that she doesn't think the dying will actually occur. She's here for the action and she's got this neat spell to try out but she rarely considers it actual, life-threatening danger.

Strong common sense but in the "obviously a cross is not enough to fight a vampire, let's bring garlic" of way instead of the "maybe we just avoid the vampire???" kind of way.

Brightfur tries her best to be a supportive, understanding mentor to Dewpaw because she didn't have one of those growing up. She wants him to love his job! She wants him to love his powers!

No longer goes against Ravenwind in obvious ways but instead in little ones. She teaches the nursery to avoid poisonings. She gets rid of every deathberry in the den. She's systematic in making sure no one is alone with her mentor except herself.

Brightfur's pelt is noticeably darker the happier she is. As a kit she's so dark she's almost brown. As an adult she's almost white. This is because she's spent so much time out of the sun and in her den, worrying. It'll eventually mellow out into a dull yellow.

Brightfur of DuskClan

[residents-of-the-darkforest]

Slopepaw stopped, Swiftface looking back at him in confusion. “I smell something. I think there’s a new arrival!” Slopepaw said, bounding off.Ignoring the shouts of his mentor to wait, Slopepaw bolted in the direction of the new scent. He wondered who it would be! Hopefully another cat from DayCla……Slopepaw hadn’t realized he’d been at the edge of the fog. Right in front of him was a cat, around his age when he died in battle with Swiftface.“Slopepaw! I told you not to run off!” Swiftface said, walking up next to him. “You know the kind of cats that can come here, and getting wounded isn’t a very fun thing! You should-” Slopepaw nudged them, and Swiftface finally noticed the cat.They walked up next to them, and gently shook their shoulder.The cat leapt up, yowling in suprise.“Hey, hey! Don’t run!” Swiftface said, standing between him and the fog.“I’m sorry! Please don’t kill me!” The cat, who Slopepaw realized was a tom said.Swiftface tilted their head. “Why would I do that? You’re not a threat, and cats can’t die here.” Swiftface gave him a longer look. “…..What’s your name?”“Sprucepaw….is this the Dark Forest?” The apprentice asked.“Mine is Swiftface-The Dark Forest? What clan are you from?!” Swiftface said with an incredulous look on their face.“W-WindClan.” Sprucepaw said.Swiftface froze, letting out a few squeaks. Slopepaw took this as his chance to step forward.“HI! My name is Slopepaw. Were you in the Dark Forest?” He stepped closer. “You seem only a little weak, so you must have not done something really bad.”Sprucepaw gave him a nervous look. “What?” He asked.“Oh, yeah. This place is Limbo. The better you were in life, the stronger you are in death. All DayClan cats go here.”Swiftface, recovering from their shock, turned away and started shouting. “BRIGHTFUUUUUUR! HEEEEELP!” A brown and white spotted she-cat stepped out of the shadows.“What?” She said, giving Swiftface a glare.“We have a WindClan apprentice here, he says he’s from the Dark Forest.”Brightfur took a step back. “If this is some sort of joke-” “There’s no joke! I promise.” Swiftface replied. “Is this supposed to happen?”.“No.” Brightfur replied, narrowing her eyes.. She walked over to Sprucepaw. “Hey. Kit. What’d you do?” Slopepaw backed away, giving Sprucepaw a little privacy, and getting away from Brightfur.The first medicine cat of DayClan had a temper, and a disdain for StarClan.It wasn’t long before Brightfur turned around, her tail lashing.“I am going to skin every single cat in StarClan alive.” She said.Swiftface kept a calm demeanor, and replied, “Good for you. We should go find Floodstar.”Brightfur padded off, and Swiftface gestured for Sprucepaw and Slopepaw to follow. “Is she….always like that?” Sprucepaw said.“Mostly.” Slopepaw replied. “Now c'mon. We’ve gotta go see Floodstar.”

Coming up next, Sprucepaw meets the founder of DayClan. Don’t worry, he gets back to the DF safely. Now for most of StarClan, that’s to be seen.

=======================

could you imagine if no one else knows about Limbo. They all remain in the DF or die a second time, and eventually Sprucepaw comes to believe that this was all a weird dream and that Slope, Swift, Bright, and the others were just his imagination

Oh, hey, I got mentioned!!!! I'm honored. =)

Summary: Brightfur just wanted to be a medicine cat. Her mentor, Ravenwind, has very different ideas on what that means- for her and for ShadowClan. With Ravenwind controlling her every move and more than willing to kill to keep it that way, Brightfur will need more than just luck to live to tell the tale.

Yes I’m doing all the seasons, yes I’m insane, this is too fun for me to stop.

Title: Streets of Clover

Summary: In the wake of Berryshade’s banishment, Brightfur finds herself more lost than ever. Every attempt to bring Ravenwind to justice has failed, and now even StarClan has turned its back on her- what’s left for her to do?

When the mysterious rogue Clover begs for help, Brightfur is plunged into a world of sidewalks, kittypets, and blood feuds. And maybe, just maybe, Ravenwind will finally take things too far.

Chapter Title: Oh Ana

Excerpt:

She wasn't sure how long she sat there. Time didn't seem to matter anymore; only the blood slowly soaking up her forearms as Clover gasped and wheezed. Brightfur wasn't even certain if she spoke- hoped she did, in fact, hoped she at least said I'm sorry- as the night ticked onwards. The stench of death was overwhelming. Brightfur always assumed it would feel better than this. That she would rise from Ravenwind's corpse like a lion and roar her freedom. All she felt was sick. The poppy seeds were still in her system despite the purge, and sleepiness tugged at her like a siren's song. She considered just letting it happen- sinking her body weight onto Clover's throat and letting nature decide if either of them lived to see morning- but that felt like giving the medicine cat one last win, so she didn't. Ravenwind had taken enough from her. She couldn't have Clover too. "StarClan's kits," someone whispered. No, thought Brightfur, delirious and peeved about it all. Clover's kits.

Surprise! I'm back much sooner than I expected lol. Also, it turns out I was wrong- there's one more chapter in this bad boy. I was originally planning on it being a prologue for the next part, but it'd make the allegiances weird if I did it that way, so we're gonna have a little epilogue type deal instead.

If you've read this far, thank you. I appreciate it so much. The support I've gotten for this story is amazing, and I love and appreciate all of you! As a little gift, I threw together a playlist for this story! Take a peek: Red Pearls Playlist

Brightfur has always been embodied by the song "Oh Ana" by Mother Mother. The song helped me create her, edit her, and make her who she is. I always intended to make a chapter titled after that, and this felt like the right time to do it!

Commissions Are Open! || Buy me a coffee?

How Ba-a-a-ad Can I Be?

Claudrat stepped forward alongside Creekshore. The old medicine cat was faltering, and still refused to take an apprentice after what happened to the last one.

He turned to Creekshore with a confused expression. They were at the Moonstone….what now?

The medicine cat spoke. “Lay down, and touch the Moonstone with your nose. StarClan will-”

Claudrat was already asleep.

…

…

He opened his eyes and stiffened in shock. He was back….there.

The lights were on, but the cages were all open. There were no sounds of footsteps, and nine cats approached him. The first one was bright orange, and snarling.

“Welcome Claudrat.” He said.

Claudrat grinned. “Spiteful choice for the location. I didn’t expect that of you, StarClan.”

“I’m going to assume you’re ready?” The orange tom said. When Claudrat nodded, the tom stepped forward. 

“My name is Clayclaw, and I give you this life for trust. Know who you can trust, as pointless suspicion has been the doom of many before you.”

The feelings flooded his own. He felt hopeful, and although this was extremely uncomfortable, a grin spread itself across his face.

Another cat approached. A pitch black she-cat with blue eyes. “I am Nightfang.” She said. “I give you a life for kindness.” She touched noses, and then cuffed him over the back of his head. “Be better.” And then she was gone. Not that Claudrat noticed, with the overwhelming guilt that passed over him. He shook it off.

Then a smaller cat walked up. She was a grey tabby, and gave him a wary glance. “My name is Octopuspaw.” She said. Claudrat tilted his head at the unusual name. “This life I will give you is for rememberence of past mistakes.” She touched noses, and Claudrat flinched. The cat his mind was overwhelmed with was one that had visited his nightmares many times. Tune, Tune, Tune. Claudrat gave a wary glance at the cages, as if they may suddenly become filled with the broken bodies of his friends and family.

The cat that approached him next was one he knew well. “Sandflight.” He said, dipping his head at the tan tabby tom. Sandflight did not do the same, with a sad look in his eyes. “Claudrat, I give you this life for reflection. Realize your past mistakes, and change accordingly.” More guilt. Really, was StarClan always this passive aggressive?

Tidepool was up next, giving him a life for love. Claudrat almost snorted at this one. He knew what love was. Why else would he be with Siltflower?

The next three lives passed in a blur. Forgettable, really. The last one….wasn’t.

Marshstar walked forward, glaring at Claudrat. The cat gave a nervous laugh, and Marshstar gave him a life for a conscience. That got a real laugh out of him. Oh, StarClan, you’re too much.

When he woke up, Claudstar rejoiced. Now, ShadowClan would be stronger than ever!

Creekshore was the former mentor of Brightfur, the first medicine cat of DayClan.

Different anon. If I give you names you will give us thieves den correct? I tried to keep them mildly canon compliant.

Vinestaff - could keep it the same or vinestick, flowervine, vinefoot (because of the cursed arm thing), vinefur, flowerfur

Shuriken - Darktooth?? Greenfur?? I felt like he'd be a 'paw anyway cus he feels so young so maybe greenpaw or somewith with a sneak suffix

Slingshit - I just instictively typed bluefur. Sobbing rn. Anyway. Bluerock? Like she's blue and she shoot rocks?? Silvershot? Would shot be an acceptable suffic cus that makes this wayyyy easier. Silversilk... mmm

Katana - ...Scarface? Steal it from brightheart and pull a lostface? Shadowface? Or maybe the lost temple influence brightfur, sunbeam, glowclaw? Or cleanfur maybe cus he's cleaning the world of corruption.

Does slingshit or katana get star as their suffix? (Btw going with flowerfur, greenpaw, blueshot, and glowclaw.)
