Rustfeather and Foxpaw find a loner queen by the border with the Wilds, and takes her back to Cascadeclan’s camp. Her name is Storm Warning.

She dies shortly after kitting that night, leaving her four newborn kits behind. Cascadeclan hasn’t had healthy kits in many moons, and desperately need the new warriors the kits will one day become.

They are given the names Shockkit, Lightningkit, Thunderkit, and Flashkit in honour of their mother.

The kits are given to the only nursing queen in the clan, Frostleaf. Her own kits didn’t survive.

Rainypaws worries over something Storm Warning told him…

[paradiseshards]

So, i’ve got my clangen blog @cascadeclangen, right? And it’s set in the clans I cooked up with my beloved @/ghxstlyraccoon for our warriors ocs when we were like. 13. All the important plot stuff took place in Blazeclan and Whisperclan, and a little bit in Iceclan. Cascadeclan was just there for the obligatory wet cat group. Guess their finally getting the attention they deserve now.

Uh, if any enjoyers from said clangen blog are seeing this, have some random background lore! The first of the four local clans was Cascadeclan, which was established by none other than Smokepaw(?)! That shadowclan apprentice who fell while the clans were traveling through the mountains. He fell into a river and got washed all the way down to whats now cascadeclan territory, where he was saved by a young loner, Cascade.

A few generations later, the clan was led by Goldenstar, who had a niece named Whisperbreeze. She was deaf, and ended up fleeing the clan and the tyrannical leader with a few friends to live in the forest upstream. Even in modern times, whisperclan is unique in how they have a completely different system for communication, most cats choosing to stay silent and use pawspeak when talking to each other.

Iceclan live in a mountainous region that is partially a glacier, and was established by some lost tribe cats, loners, and one or two cats from Cascadeclan and Whisperclan.

Blazeclan is much the same in terms of being a group of foreign cats that kind of just showed up and adopted the rules and culture of the clan cats already present. They live on moorland, with their main defining trait being how they can survive the scorching temperatures their territory can reach, even without all the streams that run through Iceclan, Whisperclan, and Cascadeclan’s land.

The other leaders are Pinestar of Blazeclan, Silentstar of Whisperclan, and Crystalstar of Iceclan.

Here are the leaders of the clans. I won’t go much into Silkstar since I already did but I will say she’s the second oldest out of the leaders with Otterstar being the oldest. Drystar is third and Blizzardstar is the youngest.

Otterstar is the leader of Cascadeclan and he’s pretty chill and relaxed. He hates fighting and is the peacemaker. He was actually the one to create the role of the mediators having been one for a short while before becoming leader. He’s the oldest and he and Silkstar are close friends. Alittle note, in their younger days before Silkstar became mates with Whitetail her and Otterstar had a short fling but ended it when they realized their clans come first, plus he has decided to devote himself to the river. He also comes from The Kin having left long ago to follow the river to find his calling. He felt he could do good out in the world and ended up joining Cascadeclan where he earned the respect of the clan and was named deputy then leader.

Drystar is the leader of Snakeclan and he’s an unusually strong fighter. He takes pride in his scars and due to Snakeclan traditions new leaders must get bit by a snake before going to retrieve their nine lives to prove their strength and he wears his snake bite with honor. He’s proud and he loves to show his strength and is always ready to cause some bloodshed. He doesn’t tolerate the younger cats who don’t know what they’re doing.

Blizzardstar is the leader of Flickerclan and she’s righteous and cold. She values loyalty and if you betray her or Flickerclan then you’re labeled a traitor forever. Thats how she views Emberfoot and Goldenstream. She’s stubborn and does not like asking for help so when Flickerclan is having problems with rogues she refuses to ask for help and would rather handle it on her own. Due to being the youngest leader she is looked down by the other older more experienced leaders and hates that they don’t take her seriously. She became leader when the previous leader, Milkweedstar, died from the fire.

[warriors-fallen]

Fallen

Fallen is a Warriors fic about six Clans living in a nature park vaguely based on Clifty Falls, Indiana. It follows the POVs of one cat from each Clan, showing their struggles dealing with a manipulative StarClan and their respective Clans' unique cultures. Summary and links under the cut. This fic will include dark themes such as death, abuse, suicide, and the usual themes in the Warriors world. The main characters and some of the other characters were chosen by my friend and QPP respectively.

Nightkit, a BurrowClan kit struggling under the weight of a shocking revelation.

Whisperpaw, a CascadeClan apprentice angered with her star-chosen destiny.

Cherrymoon, a BranchClan queen forced to grapple with the fact her kits are in danger.

Sunberry, DeerClan’s medicine cat anguished over his healing paws not being of his own control.

Vixenrook, a ShadeClan warrior desperately trying to find peace for her and her mate.

Sheendawn, a PathClan warrior struggling with being condemned by her own Clanmates.

Follow these cats as they must dig up the roots of the misery their own Clans and ancestors are bringing upon them; before it’s too late for not just them, but for every cat.

Things are happening on my ClanGen blog if anyone is interested :3

Moon 1

Snowstar’s nose is cold when it touches Pebblepaw’s. The Clan shouts his name, Skystripe yowling loudest of all. Pebblepaw knows he should be excited, but all he can think of is his mother. Was Ridgepelt excited to be an apprentice? Did she know she would die on a cold leafbare night? Snowstar’s nose is as cold as she was when he woke up that morning. A warm breeze drifts past him, curling around him and ruffling his fur. He takes a breath.

“Ready to go on a tour of the territory, Pebblepaw?” Snowstar asks, pride clear in his every word.

Pebblepaw nods. Before he can move, Otterpaw approaches. “Pebblepaw! When you get back, I can help you get your nest set up in the apprentice den!”

“Thanks, Otterpaw,” Pebblepaw replies, giving him a small smile.

“Let’s get going,” Snowstar says, and Pebblepaw follows his mentor out of camp. He follows his leader to the stepping stones that lead off the camp’s island, but Snowstar blocks the path with his body. “Pebblepaw, your first task as an apprentice is to swim to shore. I’ll swim with you, but its important that you can cross this distance in case of an emergency.”

Pebblepaw eyes the lake water, cold and still. “Do I have to?” he asks, looking up at Snowstar. “Otterpaw says there’s fish in there big enough to eat me in one bite.”

Snowstar gives him an affectionate lick. “Otterpaw may be right, but those fish swim very, very deep. The water here is fairly shallow, and you don’t have to worry about being eaten.” The leader turns and enters the dark water, leading the way to shore. Pebblepaw slips into the water after him, unable to stop himself from gasping at the cold. “You’ll get warmer as you keep moving,” Snowstar calls to him.

Pebblepaw doesn’t believe him, but feels a bit warmer when they arrive on shore nonetheless.

Snowstar shows him the Shallows as though he did not sit there with Ridgepelt as she told him about the fish and the rocks and the ripples, and laughed as he splashed around even in the cold of leaf-fall. His mentor takes him to where the stream meets the lake, and describes how it flows down from the Lodge and the Twolegplace as though it wasn’t Pebblepaw himself who said he wanted to follow the stream moons ago. Pebblepaw stays quiet, busy wrapped up in memories of exploring the territory with his mother when the group first arrived.

When they arrive at the Training Field, Snowstar sits. He explains that here is where they’ll do most of their battle training, as well as learn the basics of hunting. Pebblepaw sits next to him, thinking of blood and claws and leafbares with not enough food to go around, and when a warm wind rustles his fur, he cries.

Snowstar’s demeanor changes immediately, curling around him and pressing in close. Pebblepaw leans into his mentor, and tells him that he can’t do it. He’s not strong enough and he doesn’t want to be a warrior.

Snowstar hums thoughtfully, and stays silent while Pebblepaw calms down. Sunbeams pour down onto them while Pebblepaw sniffles.

“Kit, you’ve been acting strangely all day. Please, tell me what you’ve been worrying about.”

Pebblepaw takes a breath, and it all tumbles out of him. “I don’t want to be an apprentice. I want to be a kit again! I don’t remember what my dad looked like anymore, and one day I won’t remember what Ridgepelt looked like or sounded like or smelled like either, and she died because she wouldn’t eat so that I could eat but now I’m not a kit so next time there’s not enough prey, I’ll have to give up mine to Skystripe’s kits, and then I’ll die too. I don’t want to die,” Pebblepaw sobbed. “I’m scared, Snowstar.”

Snowstar curled tighter around the apprentice, gently grooming him. “Pebblepaw, your mother will always be with you. The wind is her breath and the rustling leaves are her voice; she is smoke and stone and light; she loves you more than anything. And I love you, too. And so does Skystripe. And we will walk with you until the trees fall and the mountain crumbles and the brightest star comes tumbling down to your paws. And this will all be true if you decide that the path of a warrior is not for you. I will not lie to you, Pebblepaw, it is not an easy life. It is full of hardships. But for many of us, it is also a life of joy and love, with a community care for and to care for us in return. You do not have to live a life you don’t wish to, Pebblepaw.”

The warm wind rustles Pebblepaw’s fur and the leaves in the trees. Pebblepaw thinks of Hyssopbloom and the games she comes up with for them to play, and Otterpaw who always takes time to show him bugs and plants and funny-shaped clouds. Of Skystripe and the nest they made in the nursery for her and her kits. Of Doveshade and Mistyfur, who had left their easy life at the Lodge behind to join the Clan. “Do you promise?” Pebblepaw asks, looking up at Snowstar.

“With all nine of my lives,” the leader replies.

“Then I want to be a warrior here, in CascadeClan.”

Skystripe announces that she is expecting kits. Pebblepaw gives her advice on the best place to make her nest in the Nursery, since he’s lived there the longest, and helps her build it.

Doveshade returns from hunting with the biggest squirrel Pebblepaw has ever seen!

Hyssopbloom invites Pebblepaw over to eat a meal with her. The two talk about his training, and enjoy their time together.

[spinnysocks]

i've been meaning to redesign some of my main & oldest warriors ocs for a while now, so decided to use @/cryptidclaw's awesome bases to give it a try! 👇

Blacktail (he/him)

I've had this guy for as long as I can remember, likely my first ever warriors oc. He's one of the most important characters in my developing warriors story; he resides in SpringClan (would be WindClan) and eventually becomes leader. Despite his happy lil expression in the ref I would say he's the most morally ambiguous character. His white spots are from twoleg kits putting paint on his fur - no cat can remember which markings he was born with and which are paint lol. Bad guy but also haha paint cat. If he had a theme song it would be "Blue Hair" by TV Girl, which might be surprising, maybe I could explain why in a more detailed post :)

Doveheart (she/her)

I have a lot to say about this lady! She is one of the founders of her Clan - CascadeClan (would be RiverClan) - and would have made a fine deputy and leader if it weren't for... *clears throat and looks at the cat above her*. Her father, the leader, led CascadeClan to the three other Clan's territories and she met Blacktail in the 'moving process'. She was sure he was the sort of cat to drop everything for her & join her Clan but she was terribly wrong. It broke her heart but don't worry, she's a great mother to Foxpaw. Her design has changed so much from its original and I'm really proud of her, she's like a daughter to me lmao. I love her so much that her design will likely continue to change for the foreseeable future until I'm 100% happy. I have a big playlist for her but a good song that represents both her anguish and resentment is "Loving You" by Wet Leg.

Foxpaw (he/him)

And here is their son. He resides in CascadeClan with his mother. Despite his expression in the ref, he's known for frowning (...and also being part of a prophecy 👀). He is my favourite of all time and kind of my personal projection onto a warrior cat lmao. In all the long years I've had him I've never had a proper ref of him so this is very exciting for me. If I decide to make proper posts about each of my warriors story characters his design may change as I don't feel it's completed, but rather I'm grateful I have a ref at all. His theme song would be "The Old Witch Sleep and the Good Man Grace" by The Amazing Devil.

i had these guys all the way back when i was in warriors amino lmao. i have a whole folder of commissions for blacktail, a few of doveheart too, but i was obsessed with that guy. still am. foxpaw deserves some love too tho with his first ref <3

[rootclan]

Hey there! What are the leaders of the other Clans like? Do they get along with RootClan?

[thistlefur]

Frostrush* - CascadeClan Scavenger

Male / 82 moons

Frostrush is the brother of Hailnose, the leader, as well as fellow scavengers Snownose and Bluebellface.

He grew up with his siblings in CascadeClan. He was mentored by Morningsky who passed on her grumpy personality to her young, impressionable apprentice. This wasn't necessarily a bad thing, as it saved Frostrush from getting into trouble like Snownose often did.

Frostrush now waits for his sister to assign him his own apprentice, continuing his job as a scavenger to bring back building materials, herbs, or tradeable items. He often bickers with his sensitive brother Bluebellface, but always makes sure to make up for anything he's said to hurt his brother.

*Frostrush shares a name with a character I use in Shadow of Origins. They have similar personalities, but their lives and appearances are vastly different.

[cascadeclangen]

Moon 1

Thunderkit is curious about the herbs on the highest shelf in Rainypaws’ den. Rainypaws decided to teach her about the poisonous plants, and why they were so far out of reach.

Iceclaw catches Foxpaw sneaking a bite of fresh-kill before catching something for Frostleaf.

Shockkit and Flashkit listen in on Lightningkit talking with their adoptive father, Smokestar. She thinks Rainypaws’ full medicine cat name is weird, and makes him sound like an apprentice.

NOIR

𝐖𝐄𝐋𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐍𝐎𝐈𝐑

Deep in the jungle roams CanopyClan, the Clan most full of trees; CascadeClan lives in open fields, amongst the birds and bees; The desert homes OasisClan, with skies above so blue; TundraClan lives in the snow, which falls each winter new​

In Twolegplace walk kittypets, their needs often fulfilled; Creeping through alleys are Syndicates Day and Night - beware, or you may be killed; The unclaimed lands house loners, living independent, but true; What will each cat's story tell? Well, that part's up to you!

──・──・・✧ ・・──・──

NOIR is a brand-new (03/22) Warriors-based feral cat roleplay server! After getting bored with the typical Warriors roleplay setting, we at NOIR decided to spice things up in a roleplay universe of our own; more custom Clan systems, two bloodthirsty factions called Syndicates, magical plants of many sorts, and much, much more make our server something to be excited about. Our server also has no set plot, but instead has a system in which members can create and run plots of their own - this way, individuals can interact with the world around them at their own pace, rather than being rushed by a constantly-moving plot. The owners of NOIR plan to build a chill and welcoming community of roleplayers and spectators alike. If you've been in looking for a friendly Warriors roleplay, look no further - your home is in NOIR.
