sooo i redesigned a lot of my childhood warrior cats ocs... some of them I totally forgot about until I raided an old page of mine LOL. I could have kept their original bright colors and designs, but I liked the challenge of finding colorways and cat shapes/breeds that are more plausible than what I depicted in my art from age 9 to 12 :]

the childhood art that I referenced for the redesign is below the cut with associated rambling, mostly in order of the above characters, if you want to know what I drew as a kid haha

This is Cherryfur/Cherryfrost, who I made a Siberian cat. In the redesign, I tried to hint at her old pink very lightly in her stripes. I also made her and heartmelt/roseheart siblings, since they were both once pink :)

This is Bloodmask, who I renamed Russetmask. I figured russet was as close to blood-colored as a real cat would get, lol. I'm not sure how plausible a mask pattern is on a russet cat, but what's warrior cats without a little implausibility? His original character was very edgy, so I tried to translate that outlandishness into a more realistic characteristic - I made him a feral cat turned deputy, which seems like a social no-no.

This is Shreddedstar. She was the leader of "BeastClan", a clan I made which was the home for a Warriors RPG group I hosted. Years later I deleted that group in a fit of embarrassment and now I HATE that I did that, because I had some nice memories from there! In the redesign, I didn't keep the Clan's trait of wearing animal pelts and teeth, because honestly I did not feel like looking for reference and making it make sense. I renamed her Foxstar, after her orange pelt, and I also gave her markings because apparently pure orange cats don't exist. She's an American Bobtail.

This is the oldest digital art I think I have. And Nightscar is the oldest warrior cat OC I have! He was renamed Nightbird because I don't think Foxstar would be so mean as to make his warrior name a comment on his scars. I made him an Oriental Shorthair.

I forgot about these two until I found this art. Idk if they were for anything or if I ever drew them again, but I pulled them out of retirement. I renamed Whispersong (left) to Whisperthroat and Jadestorm (right) to Lichenbark, to reference her former green design. I also changed their whole backstory... idk why but at ~10 years old all my cats had dead parents and were traumatized about it in some way. I think that was my childhood brain's concept of a character idea.

This girl is Heartmelt, who was another BeastClan character! I renamed her Roseheart and made her sisters with Cherryfrost - she's a Siberian like her sister. in the name of realism I sadly got rid of her pinkness and hearts. But, I left her a heart on her chest :]

Last but not least is the unfortunately named "Painfulshadow". I renamed him Slateshade and tried to keep a little indication of his wings in his patterning :) he's a domestic shorthair classic tabby.

Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk! if you read the wall of text, here's a well-deserved cookie!🍪

Debating on making this a character in the Five Clans AU- but unsure what to do with her.

She’s mentioned as a tabby with distinct black markings, and is supposedly just… a character. No name, no nothing. Not one of the other Queens seen, just her own thing.

One possibility is to make her the parent to Swift, Cinder and Bracken (and Lynx ig), and move Rosetail to being Spotted and Red’s mom instead.

Possibilities for names is to just yoink some missing kit names- Cricketkit, Cherrypaw or Chesnutkit. But if I imagine she’s a red tabby tortoiseshell then probably Cherrypaw will be moved to her.

It's the last Wednesday of the month, which means it's time for another name poll! Ignore that there wasn't one for April, that is not relevant in any way. May's poll will be the start of a series of warrior names for a group of Thunderclan kits that we'll come to know more in time - Frostfur and Goldenflower's litter! In canon, three of them already have names - Brackenfur, Brightheart, and Thornclaw, while two of them died before they could get their names (Cherrypaw and Chestnutpaw/Cedarpaw). We'll be starting with one of the cats that never got her warrior name - Cherrypaw!

We haven't seen much of Cherrykit yet - other than when she and her siblings were kidnapped by Brokentail's Shadowclan. She'll first be apprenticed in Chapter 26, so of course it might be difficult to decide her warrior name when we've seen so little of her. To help, I've included an excerpt of her apprentice ceremony!

Next was a dappled ginger molly with a similar dark pelt as her brother Cedarpaw, but with small white patches. She trotted up confidently, her green eyes glittering with excitement as she looked up at the leader. “Cherrykit, you have reached the age of six moons, and the time has come for you to be apprenticed.” Bluestar mewed, her eyes shining with pride as she looked down on the young kit. “From this day forward, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Cherrypaw. Your mentor will be Mousefur.”

Mousefur was a good choice, Fireheart thought to himself as he nodded with approval. “Mousefur, you received excellent training from Dappleshine when you were an apprentice. You have since blossomed to become one of the Clan’s best hunters, and I know you can always be trusted to speak the truth. You will be Cherrypaw’s mentor, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her.”

In summary - Cherrypaw is a very eager apprentice who longs to prove herself to the Clan, paired with her mentor Mousefur who also feels she hasn't yet proven her worth as a warrior like her brother Quickflash did. She's a fiery young tortoiseshell, but she still has a big heart - especially when it comes to her siblings Brackenpaw, Brightpaw, Cedarpaw, and Thornpaw. She seems to combine the passion and drive of Frostfur and the kindness and understanding of Goldenflower - the best of both of them, as they would say!

Cherryflower is a legacy name from her mother, Goldenflower, while Cherryfur is a legacy name from her mother Frostfur and mentor Mousefur. Cherryskip, Cherryspring, and Cherrywing each refer to her enthusiasm for Clan life, as well as her swiftness and extroverted nature. As always, feel free to suggest a name I didn't pick in the comments or tags!

For the hypokit ask with your warrior kitty OCs how bout uhhhh Birchfoot and… *throws pin at a wall* Cherryfur. And Pikewing and Hawkflower? Man these are so random I’m sorry, I tried

Birchfoot (brown tom with white paws and a white spot on his chest) + Cherryfur (calico she-cat)

Fawnkit (light brown and white tabby molly)- gentle and kind-hearted, Fawnkit is a shoe-in for the next medicine cat. Her papa taught her to always value the cats around you more than societal norms, and she often crosses into other territories to assist other medicine cats during dire times. This makes her less-than-popular with the older crowd, but apprentices flock to her for advice on cross-border romance and friendships. (Later named Fawnheart).

Rockkit (black and white long-furred molly)- named after Stonebird, Rockkit has her mother's passion and both her parents' sense of loyalty. She trains hard every day to be a great warrior, and puts her faith in justice over her ancestors. Someday, she could make a great deputy, and help run the Clan alongside her sister. (Later named Rockclaw).

Pikewing (white and brown tabby she-cat) + Hawkflower (dark gray tabby tom)

Fallingkit (orange long-furred cat)- Named for Fallingfeather, Fallingkit grows into a sensible, but stern, cat. Proudly nonbinary, they actively fight against any sort of injustice or bigotry. They aren't the best hunter (being neon orange and all) but they're a well-regarded cat in the Clans and it's always an honor to be mentored by them. (Later named Fallingfire).

Antkit (scrawny brown tom)- they were originally undecided on the name for Antkit. Hawkflower thought of honoring Leafleg (a shitty mentor, but still taken before his time) but didn't want to upset Grayfeather, so Pikewing told him all about leafcutter ants, and Antkit it was.

Like his mother, Antkit is very studious and loves to infodump, but while Pikewing loves bugs, Antkit loves Clan history. He could go on and on about the ancient Tunnelers of WindClan, the legend of how TigerClan got their stripes, SkyClan's banishment from the forest. He's a bit lost in his own world, but he's a good hunter, and an even better den-builder. (Later named Antfall).

Dogwoodkit (silver tabby molly)- named for the ghost that helped RiverClan and WindClan be rid of the dog, Dogwoodkit has no spiritual connections of her own. Heck, she doesn't even believe in that stuff! All she cares about is what's right in front of her. She wants to keep her home safe and sound, and isn't afraid to shed blood to do it. She's the go-to warrior for patrols and battles, but rarely is given any apprentices or let into senior warrior discussions bc of her blatant lack of faith. She IS a bit salty about that. (Later named Dogwoodtail).

[we-rate-warrior-names]

Some of Sunstep's warriors (who you haven't rated yet) of ThunderClan: Mousestep, m; Loudflower, f; Rainclaw, f; Lionpelt, m; Cherryfur, f.

Mousestep - A gentle and skilful tom. Mousestep has always had a delicate tread, even as a kit and as an apprentice his mentor helped him use it to help with his stalking, Mousestep can move through the forest in almost total silence now, when he’s stalking he makes sure that every step has been thought through, he is one of the best hunters in the clan. Mousestep tends to speak softly and he adores kits, when he’s not hunting he will often be talking with the queens in the nursery while helping keep an eye on the little ones, 15/10

Loudflower- An extroverted and cheerful she-cat. Loudflower is very sociable and loves company, she often talks as she works and she has a distinctively loud purr. Loudflower always thinks positively and she tries her best to help others that are feeling down, 14/10

Rainclaw - A calm and skilful she-cat. Not much can phase Rainclaw, she always seems to remain calm and collected, even in the heat of battle. She has strived to keep a cool head as she believes that this allows her to fight efficiently as she can, and make the most rational decisions, 14/10

Lionpelt- A friendly and bold tom. Lionpelt tends to get along with cats pretty well, he always tries to be polite to even the most hostile cat. Lionpelt will often push the boundaries of the territory just so he can try and glimpse what life outside a clan might be like, he will also always be the first cat to investigate or fight anything new, 13/10

Cherryfur- A kind and thoughtful she-cat. Cherryfur is always considerate of others and is always willing to help, although she can be a little shy sometimes so her voice doesn’t always get heard. Cherryfur like to go out into the forest and think about things while she is alone, she also likes to come up with stories in her head that she vows to tell one day once she is a little more confident, 13/10

[epiphlyte]
