#bye losers i'm off to get some fuckin rest

[sp1resong]

a mechs/warrior cats au? when i'm still working on the wof one? it's more likely than you'd think!

this started off as me making up potential warrior cats names for each mech and it spiraled like an ant. anyways.

basically, they're all from various AUs and possible timelines of warriors, and technically exist within the same multiverse as my rewrite + the Eldritch Bristlefrost AU, although this never comes into play aside from the lore being more similar to the rewrite than warriors canon.

onto the characters!

Dr. Carmilla is Frostshade, an ex-healer of RiverClan. Her timeline is one where Darktail succeeded in driving out the Clans, leading them to die out over time.

Following her death, she found herself in... what might have been StarClan at one point, where she proceeded to fuck around and find out. You... pretty much know how that ends.

She may or may not be her timeline's version of Frostpaw.

Jonny D'Ville is Foxfang, a former warrior of he-says-it's-ThunderClan-but-he-might-be-lying-for-main-character-privileges. His timeline is pretty much the canon timeline, in the 'you can't prove it didn't happen' way.

Ashes O'Reilly is Ashfire, a former rogue. Kind of. It's complicated.

In their timeline the Clans had dispersed over time, leading to a number of smaller groups that kept some but not all Clan customs. The Sevens were one such group, keeping... pretty much just the naming conventions.

Drumbot Brian is Copperpelt, a former healer of SkyClan. In his timeline, SkyClan managed to drive out Darktail and as such never moved to the lake.

He's a former loner, presumably; a patrol found him wandering around the territory with no memory and were like 'may as well keep him lol'

Gunpowder Tim is Stormleap, a former warrior of ThunderClan. He and Bertie (Birdwhistle) are former kittypets who were recruited by ThunderClan, who were at war with ShadowClan because their leader (Moonstar) was an asshole. tim backstory ensues.

fun meta fact: he's named Stormleap because of how the moonstone got fucking exploded by a lightning strike. so that's a little roundabout reference

Ivy Alexandria is Ivyflight, a former mediator of ShadowClan. She's from some variation of the canon timeline's future.

Nastya Rasputina is Snowsky of GlacierClan, from a timeline where the Clans more blatantly conquered the mountains (the Tribe doesn't exist in any of these timelines because of. all the many many problems and issues, but there were certainly cats there at the time who weren't too pleased with being conquered).

The Toy Soldier is ???? dude I don't think that's even a cat

a wooden toy that was probably supposed to be a cat but is fairly simplified. everyone in every timeline they travel through just passes it off as normal. no one's sure if it's a possessed toy, an AI, fully mechanized or what. but either way it sure is There

Marius Von Raum is Mottledfur, a former rogue/semi-warrior of WindClan (he worked for them but wasn't really a member). He is also from a potential canon future.

Raphaella la Cognizi is Cricketwing, a former healer of SkyClan. She's from a timeline where SkyClan didn't find the lake, and just kind of adapted to a wandering lifestyle.

The Aurora is... something, for sure. She's less bound to one reality than the Shadow (eldritch bristlefrost au) but is nonetheless likely formed from one faded soul or another. Despite this, her consciousness is complete and seemingly unimpaired, and Frostshade has figured out how to communicate with her.
