[taks-battlecats]

this is a little older but a set of clangen guys! i got attached to them so they're ocs now

the file they're from is an older one, so i don't play it anymore, but i got a bit of lore for them before i switched to a more recent version. Blackskip is my "protagonist" of this set. Otterstrike & Boulderfern are her partners. Boulderfern joined as a rogue while Otterstrike, like Blackskip, was one of the founding members.

Tigerwatcher was the deputy before he retired, and Shimmerstar refused to appoint a new one (read: the game wouldn't let me pick one haha). Boulderfern and Otterstrike both end up dying, and the clan operates for months without a deputy before Shimmerstar dies. Starclan sends Blackskip an omen and she gets shoved into leadership unceremoniously. She dies of old age later on at around 160 moons.

then after that i liked to imagine they reincarnated and then i stopped playing the file

Warrior Cats Prefixes - B - Part 6 [Borage - Branch]

the names listed here are my own personal headcanon names that I use when in reference to the canon Clans. Others are free to use them and you're free to disagree with the ones I use, but in the end they're the ones I personally like to use.

this list is liable to change as time goes on and my ideas change.

there will be around 5-8 prefixes per list. Some may have more, some may have less, but the general range is about 5-8.

/ / / / /

Borage

Borage- as a name comes from the borage herb, which is an herb used in the Clans to help queens produce milk, bring down fevers, and sooth belly aches and tightness of chest. Borage, as it is an herb, is known to all five Clans. It is considered an uncommon name, though it is common in its favored Clan - WindClan.

Type: nature // subclass: plant [this name denotes that it is based off of a plant or something that is considered plant-like]

Requirements*: with the borage being a plant, it has many parts. Many parents choose to name kits after the sky blue flower, meaning they lean towards gray kits.

Others choose brown or gray, to fit better with the stem and leaves.

Canon Examples: None

Random Examples [non canon]: Borageclaw // Borageslip // Boragewater // Boragewish

Boulder

Boulder- as a name refers to massive rock fragment, which aren't often found in the Clan territories - but are familiar with locations like mothermouth and the mountains. These massive stones are known to all five Clans and is considered an uncommon name.

Type: nature // subclass: earth [this name denotes something related to the earth/ground]

Requirements*: Most cats agree that Boulder- cats need to be big. When it comes to fur color, however, some believe gray cats are fitting for Boulder-.

However, there are those who wish to use brown. Even a rare few give the name to ginger cats!

Canon Examples: Boulder [warrior of ShadowClan] // Boulderfur [warrior of WindClan]

Random Examples [non canon]: Boulderfern // Boulderhawk // Boulderstripe // Bouldertooth

Bounce

Bounce- as a name comes from the movement, where one gives hop in place. Bounce-, when it comes to kits, is often given to kits who are notably squirmy or restless. If a parent waits long enough, they may give the prefix to their most active kit. With this being a movement name, it is known in all five Clans and used uncommonly without preference.

Type: movement [this name denotes movement/activity and is often given to kits who aren't named the day they're born]

Requirements*: Bounce- is given to excitable, squirmy, and/or active kits.

Canon Examples: Bouncefire [warrior of SkyClan]

Random Examples [non canon]: Bouncefeather // Bounceleaf // Bouncerun // Bouncestep

Bracken

Bracken- as a name comes from the bracken plant, which is a tall fern with course lobed fronds. These plants cover large areas and in the UK they thrive best in woodlands. That being said, this is quite the common plant, in fact being one of the most common plants. It is also a common name used in all five Clans, with ThunderClan, ShadowClan, and SkyClan using this name the most

Type: nature // subclass: plant [this name denotes that it is based off of a plant or something that is considered plant-like]

Requirements*: with plant names, gray and brown tend to be the most common colors - golden-brown especially due to the golden-green leaves. Some say that cats with course fur or cats with scruffy pelts embody the perfect Bracken- cats.

Canon Examples: Brackenfoot [warrior of ShadowClan] // Brackenfur [warrior of ThunderClan] // Brackenheart [warrior of SkyClan] // Brackenpelt [warrior of RiverClan] // Brackenwing [warrior of WindClan]

Random Examples [non canon]: Brackenbloom // Brackenlight // Brackenpatch // Brackenseed

Bramble

Bramble- as a name comes from the bramble plant - which is a wild vine or shrub that is part of the rose family. It most famously includes blackberries and raspberries. Brambles grow abundantly all throughout the British Isles and as such is a plant that all five Clans know well. It is a common name that isn't favored by any Clan.

Type: nature // subclass: plant [this name denotes that it is based off of a plant or something that is considered plant-like]

Requirements*: Bramble- cats are commonly brown, black, or ginger - brown matching the bark and both black and ginger matching blackberries and raspberries. Very rarely is white used to resymbol the small white flowers.

Canon Examples: Brambleberry [medic of RiverClan] // Bramblestar/Brambleclaw [leader of ThunderClan]

Random Examples [non canon]: Bramblebelly // Brambleglow // Bramblestone // Brambletoe

Brambling

Brambling- as a name comes from the brambling bird, a member of the finch family. They are widespread birds who are often found in large flocks. The males are notable in their black heads and orange chests while females look similar to other chaffinches. They are common prey for Clan cats and are known in all four Clans. That being said, all Clans except RiverClan favor this uncommon name - in fact it's almost considered rare in RiverClan.

Type: bird [this name denotes a type of bird]

Requirements*: Brambling- cats tend to be brown, though tortoiseshells with the name aren't unheard of. Funny enough, these cats tend to be the reverse of the coloring of actual bramblings - with tortoiseshell mollies being named after male birds and brown toms being named after the females.

Canon Examples: None

Random Examples [non canon]: Bramblingcoat // Bramblingleap // Bramblingscreech // Bramblingwing

Branch

Branch- as a name comes from the 'arms' of the trees in which leaves grow, birds make their nests and rest, and cats climb. Not just trees have branches, though the word often invokes the thought of trees in most. Branches are, of course, known in all five Clans. However, the name itself is surprisingly considered uncommon - though it is just over the fine line between common and uncommon names and it tends to fluctuate because of this.

Type: nature // subclass: plant [this name denotes that it is based off of a plant or something that is considered plant-like]

Requirements*: Branches, like trees, come in all sorts of colors. Still, brown is considered fairly common for Branch- cats. Even then, some say that Branch- works better for cats who will grow to be tall or cats with long tails. This is considered 'up for debate'.

Canon Examples: there are two rogues named Branch, but they are not listed as Clan cats

Random Examples [non canon]: Branchcloud // Branchleap // Branchswipe // Branchtail

*requirements are not actually required, but simply the most common attributes associated with the name. Often honor naming ignores these requirements, but these are still more like loose suggestions than any hard-set rules
