#imagine jayfeather dealing with the black death

[kanditimesystem]

since you can put warriors in basically any time period I wanna see like. 1600s English cats. mid 1600s pirate cats. cats in the 1300s dealing with the bubonic plague. pre-history cats watching twolegs use fire for the first time. cats watching the crusades. like you can literally do anything

WC design/headcannon/ect masterlist- Part B

another chunk of all the headcanos/AU’s/design notes/warrior names for kits and leaders never given a canon one/ect for all the wario cats!

this one is for all the B named cats!

info under the cut

Badgerfang

badgerfang i think a lot of us have a big ol soft spot for, but ought i really care him and his family i think it needs more than jusT the badgerfang death like for real

one of the biggest reasons i wanna learn to animate is because i wanna make a badgerfang and flintfang amv! it would be sdkg more about flintfang because i think he’s a neat character who has a lot of potential for development 

like mAN you ever stop and think about not only was flintfang sad over badgerfangs death because it was sad, bUT also because badgerfang was his sisters kit AND to the thought of blackstar is flintfangs brother. flintfang had to deal with playing a hand in badgerfangs death then watch his brother loyally follow brokenstar, then tigerstar 🥺

Baypaw

baypaw was the first of his lil chunk of family i design, i didnt have a sorrelstripe design made yet so i ultimately decided to base his design on his grandpa Lionblaze. smaller fluffy lionblaze.

I know we should be coming up to baypaw getting their warrior name soon

i think a name like Baysong or Baygale

Beech Tail

the only thing i have  to say is dgjksh when i designed the ‘beech’ prefix designs it was late and i totally went ‘beech... the beach’ and noT beech the tree sdjkgh. so i designed beech tail like that of a penguin sdjkgh

Beechfur

beechfur , riverclan warrior under mistystar’s leadership

i imagine beechfur is be EXTREMely accident prone, from the first instant of getting sick and healed by leafpool all the way up till the end. He is in and out of the medicine cats den constantly. and through this formed a big ol crush on the pretty medicine cat apprentice Willowshine who has had to full on decline his feelings. he is not the only one who has had this treatment, many a riverclan cats have found themself charmed by willowshine

Beechpaw

Beechpaw, a apprentice of ancient skyclan who were forced to leave the forest territory.  i imagine beechpaw was of the few cats who did everything he could to keep the others in good spirit while they tried to find their home, which often came to the annoyance of all his distraught clanmates. he never stopped doing all he could to put a smile on their face until he died.

he was the last apprentice cloudstar named a warrior and only lived a few moons after becoming one.

warrior names i like for him are like Beechshed or Beechshine

Beenose

slight update to my beenose design because i want her to fit my newer darktail group clown aesthetic 

another design note is her and her siblings all are themed after a diff color of the rainbow, beenose is yellow. their mom snowbird has a pale rainbow pattern and each other her kits is a diff color of the rainbow

Beetlewhisker

Beetlewhisker is another one of my quiet favorites i have, and it is because of the error of him being alive for SO many books after he died.

like !!! bitch had a HUGE major death and went on to live for a long time aND be listed as a cats mentor (which i think that has been changed now)

i love the idea of in a way beetlewhisker WAS with the clans that long after his death. that due to his death was in a way locked in the dark forest, his soul stuck there. but because of the ways of the dark forest cat’s he was chased out, and unable to enter starclan having died in the dark forest, now cursed to live in limbo.

He walks to the grounds of riverclan watching over his clanmates while they rest hoping that no one else is to be preyed upon by the dark forest like he was ever again. 

theres ghost stories of riverclan cats seeing the shape of a cat shining brightly when hit by moonlight. a peaceful spirit of the past who protects them.

and in design 100% his design was made to look like that of a smeleton bones lol

Bellaleaf

the erin team will have to pry bellaleaf and firestar being siblings from my cold dead hands!!

you can’t say they look basically exactly alike and their not related i wont take it sdjkg. i DIE for the idea oh whore jake managing to have so many kids that get into the clans. like the over saturation of jake dna through the clans ruining them absolutely kills me sdjkg

i also imagine ravenpaw having like deja vu of firestar when he looks at bella, cats who knew firestar look at her and can’t help feel she reminds them of someone. 

Berryheart

another one of the designfor snowbirds kits, berryheart is the red themed sibling.

she also got a slight design change to be more clowny to fit her time in darktail’s group

Berrynose

i just love berrynose, i think hes very terrible and i love him a lot

i think the books are cowards and i think berrystar woulda been the fUNniest outcome oR like

imagine the powermove if berrynose lived and squirrelflight fucking made berrynose her deputy likE

also berrynose is a lil gay brat, he has a thick country accent and everyone find him weirdly charming. many hate him but cant help but find him alluring. 

he actually is a very good warrior, he stays on top of his task and brings in the prey. his biggest problem is his ego and his need to get in others faces all the time

i love when he’s paired with lionblaze because their stupid rivarly is so good i really wish it was more plot important and lasted longer i LIVE for best friend rivals lion and berry

buT i also love him with jayfeather for the simple dynamic of the one cat who would probably hate him more than anyone else but oops he’s in love to

or him and breezepelt because they could be lil shitheads togeather

Birchface

the biggest thing i can say about birchface is 100% birchface watched over mapleshade’s kits, doesnt let appledusk or his own family hurt them. He treats them like his own.

in AU’s where birchface lives i defiantly can see him having a HUGE crush on mapleshade and being much like thrushpelt was to bluefur. being as a surrogate dad for her kits and keeping the secret.

in my main AU with mapleshade dieing and getting a redemption its mostly the same except they become a sweet happy family together in starclan.

he’s a big goofy dad type and his father had hoped he would become leader one day, but worried that he was too lax with the code and not as driven to fight as others and began to think he would have to rely on frecklewish instead. then they both died and he ended up turning to his youngest son pinefur

Blade

this is just a one time ghost cat buT  i like the design i made for her.

im all here for dark forest cats having this black oozing mark from where they died, starclan gets being covered in stardust and maybe having from pretty plats or glow or other representative stuff on their death. but ghost cats are loUD with their mark of death. its a nagging weight they carry around based on their inability to move on to their respective afterlives. For blade its giant bright red tire marks that slowly circle around her body.

Blazefire

just a lil boy

i imagine he kinda constantly has crushes on cats from other clans which while some might tell him to hush when he shares his thoughts on the pretty cat from riverclan he gets some loving teasing from dovewing and antfur

Blazefire is also miss nearly all of his tail

Blizzardstar and Blizzardwing

not much here but to say 100% i designed blizzardwing in mind of being that of a grandson or great grandson to blizzardstar

Blossomfall

shrug idk a lot to say about her beyond, i know she’s a asshole character but i remember liking her, i think she’s mean but its kinda fun in a way

i think i also just have this soft spot for millies kits because their millie’s

also i just like my blossomfall design i think she’s v fun

Blossomkit

another shadowclan kit who died under brokenstar’s ruling.

i think as sad as it is, i can imagine blossomkit to be badgerfang’s sister, just another sad thing to think about for fernshade’s litter. the potential idea of all her kit’s dying because of brokenstar

a warrior name for her that would been cute woulda been like Blossomglaze or blossomsprout

Bluebellkit

bluebellkit sure disappeared from the books. she’s one of those kits that like, she already had a mouth full of a name and i wish i coulda seen what they woulda named her as a warrior

but she’s another one of snowbird’s rainbow themed kids, her ofc being the blue one.

i think a cute warrior name for her could been Bluebellwhistle or bluebellfoot

Blouder

i lobe boulder i think he is very under appreciated!! 

i think it be very fun to get a novella or something in this POV,,

he’s just hangin out back there yknow,,,

Bouncefire

(bit of an art change from here as i took a break between these two and switched programs)

idk a lot about actual bouncefire, i think the only books with any real characterization in it was ones i havent read

buT id really like to imagine growing up he saw his mentor patchfoot as a father figure and was ultimately the reason patchfoot and his mom got together. and bouncefire being absolutely ecstatic about it. thinking patchfoot is the coolest guy

bouncefire gets along good with his half siblings

gay cat and wanna be emo but just is kinda angy

Brackenfur

my biggest brackenfur AU is my medicat brackenfur which i have info of here

https://goatpaste.tumblr.com/post/631020627780911104/au-where-insteed-of-fireheart-picking-up

and

https://goatpaste.tumblr.com/post/632972589046890496/mmm-writing-out-like-big-plot-point-changes-in-my

the other thing vaguely mention in these but would probably be more prominent in his og story

but brackenfur is quietly the biggest mess in the family. Being on pare with confidence and energy as cinderpelt when they were young, after her accident somethin changed for him. he loved his sister but is a big distant. but its hardly noticeable between the two as they worked very separate jobs in the clan

then his other sister, brightpaw has her accident and brackenfur begins to question something

but when he his the last to leave in the thunderclan group to their new home he stops and looks back at his mother frostfur who is old and frail look, though she wasnt young the damage of the forest hit her hard. 

this when brackenfur decides starclan has it out for his family, especially the mollies. they were cursed he was sure.

moons later he is expecting his kits with sorreltail, letting his mind rest on the idea, the crazy notion that some greater force wanted the she-cats in his family dead. 

then the day his kits arrive cinderpelt dies to the badgers. he pushes down these feelings down again it was the time. But he couldn’t help but think that, if leafpool was there, if starclan had given them a sign of the badgers, anything. maybe cinderpelt might have lived. but he pushes it back down and tells himself it was a warriors death

and then his daughter, cinderpaw is struck by the tree and the stirring in his mind grows stronger. why has starclan done this to his family

then honeyfern gets bit by the snake. how could starclan be so cruel, their always so young.

then his sweet sorreltail fought strongly for her two young daughters future

and on his own, forced to watch seedpaw drown and lilypaw be haunted by what happened.

the women in brackenfurs family is cursed and he bears the burden of relizing it, of living and watching each of them suffer until the end

to the ones that lived and are happy still, with no burdens in their lives he watches happily making sure NOTHING bad comes their way. he would fight starclan themselves to make sure his family is safe and happy

Breezepelt

in design Breezepelt has a p average length tail. which for him is a huge disappointment. His father crowfeather has a long slender windclan tail, a trait that is held to high standards in his family. a trait passed all the way down from windstar herself who had the longest and most beautifully windy tail. 

Breezepelt has a angry spot about this because he feels lacking and especially disconnected to his father. BUT double this with jayfeather having only half windclan blood has a tail even longer than crowfeathers 

i also would NOT put breezepelt with heathertail, i dont see any reason for it. like first off this bitch gay, id love for him to have a boyfriend and it think it should be berrynose because one, their both terrible i think it be funny and i also think its funny to ship berrynose with lionblaze or jayfeather so im like, whats another brother (to be clear not shipped all together, this is separately) and two, the idea heathertail and poppyfrost lesbian could exist

then the big BIg thing is, i would take breezepelts character and gut what happened in crowfeathers trial out of both him and crowfeather

i talk about it a bit here, but i think ill re talk about it in full when i get to crowfeather https://goatpaste.tumblr.com/post/190544981670/breezepelt

Briarlight

miss briarlight i love you!!

very sweetgirl

i based her design off sakuras and bleed heart doves. idk what possessed me but when i went to design her i knEW she was gonna be pink she needed to be she deserved it

briarlight buff as shit in her forlegs she loves trying to rope leafpool and jayfeather into lil strength contest she always wins (sometimes she will let leafpool win on days she needs it) 

her and jayfeather are wlw/mlm best friends. jayfeather calls her pidge which started as a mean nickname that she simply loved and embraced fully

also in my AU with medicat lionblaze i can very much see briarlight and lionblaze being very sweet friends. like big strong lionblaze who is actually docile and compassionate about his work and briarlight loud and rooting him on

Brick

swear to god until i got back into warrior cats this year i had always thought brick was a lady and her and bone were suppous to be scourges like adoptive bad parents jkdg

anyways im still with that, she/her agender brick who adopts their terrible son scourge and is in a monogamous partnership with bone’s. strictly business defiantly not married, they just have a son together. 

Brindlewing

idk a ton about her, but from her wiki it dsjkgh doesnt look like theirs  alot

but i’d like to imagine she’s a very anxious girl and struggles in crowds especially around cat she doesn't know. she feels more comfortable when one of her sisters is with her or her grandmother nightcloud. Nightcloud has always been a source of self confidence for her and they love each very much.

Brindlewing also inherited crowfeather’s family long tail that skipped breezepelt. Brindlewing holds the tail in her mouth as a means of helping her anxiety.

Bristlefrost

a biG design overhaul for my bristlefrost design, i really didnt like the old design i made her. wanted her to be a lil darker colored and in general have a cuter design

i gave her diff color eyes to mark her double agent status one eye green like her fathers and the other sharing the same blue i use for ashfur’s eye color

i kept her with the one white paw which i give to any descendent of jake, just because canonically she is ivy and ferns kid.

but in my rewrite their not togeather. Fernsong was a kittypet or a loner who had lost their mate and home and was found by ivypool caring for his three kittens alone. this is more fernsong headcanon, but bristlefrost is there

bristle and all the kits love ivypool they look up to her big time and all wished she was their mentor when they became apprentices. 

bristlefrost often confides in her father when feeling guilty or unsure of herself and he is always there for her

Bristlekit

half brother to tallstar

i imagine woolytail’s family seems to have a high mortality rate with their kids with only one maybe two usually making it to adulthood. bristlekit would die before becoming an apprentice and spent time in starclan with finchkit and later rabbitkit waiting for wrenflight and tallstar.

if bristlekit made it to being a warrior id like to think he was named Bristlefeather or Bristlefoot

Brook where small fish swim

teeny update to my brook design to give her small white fish dots matching her brothers spots

her general design is mean to be loosely based on a mountain lion. 

she got strong powerful mountain climbing body

i also wish her romance was better developed and wasnt like based in a lot of white savior romance plots given to native and native coded characters

in general the tribe really shoulda just been written better

Brownpaw

brownpaw, brother to littlecloud killed mosspaw as a kit on accident and was apprenticed for it by brokenstar

i imagine him and his brother wetfoot killing mosspaw effect them both deeply. for wetfoot it shook him to the core and made his doubt his own claws

for brownpaw it set him down the path of destruction. brokenstar rewarding him for what happened with mosspaw was the biggest enabler

brownpaw would go on to be a blood thirsty apprentice who would throw his young life away under brokenstars order of attack.

had he been made a warrior i think brokenstar woulda named him Brownmoss claiming he had earned the name when he took it from mosspaw.

Bug

design for bug because i think the book she was in didnt exist when i originally started drawing every warrior cat

love her!

bumblestripe

bumblestripe’s character makes me sad

im SUCH a millie stan and for one of her kids to be disabled then treated like garbage to the end of her life and written super ablest and then her other two kids are total shit heads? makes me sad

i wish at lEAST millie and graystripe had a second little, maybe just one total sweetheart

and its been forever since i read the books. but i remember bumblestripe being a real nobody characters just very generic personality until romance plot for dovewing came into play. and now he super sucks!

i wish he coulda just been a good character who loved dovewing, is sad and kinda jealous of her feelings for tigerheart but in the end respects her decisions and even admires her courage to follow her heart even if it led her over the borders.

Buster/Rippletail

slight buster redesign to fit more in the circus clown look from when he was in the kin

also design note, he’s got an orange themed design to go along with his rainbow themed siblings

Buzzardkit

windclan kit who showed up once in the sight crying and being comforted by a queen

mm i think some good warrior names for them woulda been like

buzzardface, Buzzardshriek or buzzardwhistle

Poster for my Warriors AU, Power of Four.  It's essentially a rewrite of Power of Three and Omen of the Stars, plus some of The New Prophecy. The biggest change is that the three (now four) are each from a different clan and don't have powers. Instead, they're being mentored by Starclan (in a similar way to the Dark Forest trainees) and train under the original clan founders. Also, the Starclan and Dark Forest cats can't literally enter the real world, and instead are using the living cats to fight their battles for them. Keep reading for more info.

Blurb There will be four, heirs of thunder, wind, river, and shadow, who hold the fate of the stars in their paws.  The Great Journey brought the four clans to the edge of extinction. Alliances crumbled in the face of hunger and fear. Mudclaw, Windclan's self-declared leader following the sudden death of Tallstar, seemed determined to claim these new lands for Windclan, and any cat not ready to ally themselves with him was seen as a threat. Battles to drive back Mudclaw's relentless crusade, combined with hunger and sickness, eventually resulted in the loss of Leopardstar, Blackstar, and finally Firestar. With no way for deputies to receive their nine lives from Starclan, no one could truly fill the hole the fallen leaders had left behind. Cats called to the stars, but had no way to know if their ancestors walked these skies. Then, during one fateful battle, lightning came down from the heavens and struck a cliff bordering the moor. The cliff face cracked and gave way, burying the power-hungry Mudclaw in a shower of falling stone. The cats looked on with amazement as the cliff opened up to reveal a path down to a starlit pool, and in that pool were the feathers of a crow and tawny owl, a tendril of bramble, and the reflection of a storm. The will of Starclan was now clear. The clans must live in peace, and in place of their fallen leaders, new cats with an understanding of fellowship and loyalty beyond clan boundaries must rule. And so it came to be. Bramblestar, Crowstar, Stormstar, and Tawnystar ascended to leadership, and the clans lived in peace. But now a greater threat looms, and a long-forgotten prophecy threatens to entangle four young cats in a conflict they never could have imagined. The balance between light and darkness will hinge on the heirs of thunder, wind, river, and shadow.  Character Profiles The Four Lionblaze Residence: Shadowclan Mother: Tawnystar Father: Rowanclaw Siblings: Flametail and Dawnpelt Shadowclan Mentor: Russetfur Starclan Mentor: Shadowstar History: Born to Tawnystar and Rowanclaw, Lionkit was confident, strong, and felt fully prepared for life as a warrior, long before he was ready to leave the nursery. His part in the prophecy will not only see him being tempted by the darkness at the claws of his grandfather, Tigerstar, but also require him to learn that fighting for what is right comes down to much more than teeth and claws. Dovewing Residence: Riverclan Mother: Brook Father: Stormstar Sibling: Ivypool Riverclan Mentor: Reedwhisker Starclan Mentor: Riverstar History: In this AU, Brook followed Stormfur to the lake territories, instead of him staying behind with her. Hawkfrost also doesn't exist in this AU, so there was no one to drive him away from Riverclan. He would later be chosen by Starclan to lead his clan as Stormstar, and together he and Brook had Dovekit and Ivykit. From the moment she was born, Dovekit was sure she wasn't destined for anything great. Small, clumsy, and not particularly athletically inclined, she was more than happy to walk in the shadow of her overachieving sister. When she discovers that she is a major player in a great prophecy, she's sure that there has to be some mistake, and must learn that a Warrior's virtues extend far beyond just hunting and fighting. Jayfeather Residence: Thunderclan Biological Mother: Leafpool  Biological Father: Crowstar Adoptive Mother: Squirrelflight Adoptive Father: Bramblestar Biological Sibling: Hollyleaf Adoptive Siblings: Foxleap and Blossomfall (in this AU they are the kits of Sorreltail, the cat that nursed Jayfeather) Thunderclan Mentor: Birchfall (temporarily) - Leafpool Starclan Mentor: Thunderstar History: While Jayfeather doesn't know about his true parentage in this AU, both his adoptive and biological parents do. When Crowstar was called to be leader of Windclan and Leafpool called to be Thunderclan's medicine cat, they knew their relationship couldn't go on. When Leafpool eventually gave birth to two kits, it was decided that one would stay with her, and another would go to live with Crowstar. Leafpool kept the tiny gray tom, whom she named Jaykit, and Crowstar took the fluffy black she-cat. Bramblestar agreed with his mate that they would pose as the kit's mother and father, so that he wouldn't face being discriminated against for his parentage. Jaykit was suckled by Sorreltail, and raised alongside Foxleap and Blossomfall. In this AU, Jaykit actually wants to be a medicine cat, but feels that he has to train as a warrior to prove himself to everyone. It will take true strength to learn that his self worth is not reliant on other cats' standards, and that his own dreams are worth valuing. Hollyleaf Residence: Windclan Biological Mother: Leafpool Biological Father: Crowstar Adoptive Mother: Nightcloud Biological Sibling: Jayfeather Adoptive Sibling: Breezepelt Windclan Mentor: Onewhisker (who is never made deputy by Tallstar in this AU, and instead becomes deputy to Crowstar) Starclan Mentor: Windstar History: After being torn apart by their obligations to their clans, Crowstar and Leafpool knew that they couldn't raise their two kits together. So Leafpool took Jaykit, and Crowstar took the black she-kit that he named Hollykit. Nightcloud, a nursing queen, agreed to suckle Hollykit on the condition that Crowstar was to claim her son, Breezekit, as his own. In actuality, Breezekit's father was the deceased Mudclaw, and Nightcloud didn't want her son to live in his father's dark shadow. Hollykit and Breezekit were raised together as siblings, neither knowing that they didn't share blood. Crowstar and Nightcloud grew close in this time, and although they don't feel romantic love for one another, they are very dear friends. Hollyleaf grows into a determined Warrior with the urge to make her clan proud and live up to the legacy of her father. She is a bit of an overachiever and doesn't take failure well. When the reveal of a devastating secret brings her world crashing down, she must learn how to operate outside the idealistic parameters she has created for herself, and see that some of the most beautiful things in the world are not so easily defined Dark Forest Trainees Flametail Residence: Shadowclan Mother: Tawnystar Father: Rowanclaw Siblings: Lionblaze and Dawnpelt Shadowclan Mentor: Littlecloud Dark Forest Mentor: Ravenwing (the medicine cat that revealed the father of Mapleshade's kits in Mapleshade's Vengeance) History: Enthusiastic and eager to help, Flametail is lured into the Dark Forest under the promise of becoming a better medicine cat. Ravenwing, a bitter cat attempting to increase his standings in the Dark Forest and oust his old rival, Mapleshade, uses Flametail to dispense false prophecies to the clans.  Ivypool Residence: Riverclan Mother: Brook Father: Stormstar Sibling: Dovewing Riverclan Mentor: Mistyfoot Dark Forest Mentor: Thistleclaw History: From the beginning it was thought that, out of Stormstar's two daughters, Ivypool would be the one to achieve greatness and maybe even become leader herself someday. When instead her sister is chosen for a great prophecy, Ivypool's world is shattered, and she is lured into the Dark Forest by Thistleclaw, a cat who too was corrupted by envy.  Blossomfall Residence: Thunderclan Mother: Sorreltail Father: Brackenfur Biological Sibling: Foxleap Adoptive Sibling: Jayfeather Thunderclan Mentor: Whitewing Dark Forest Mentor: Mapleshade History: In this AU, Blossomfall is the daughter of Sorreltail and Brackenfur, sibling to Foxleap, and adoptive sibling to Jayfeather. She serves as a dark mirror to Jayfeather when she is crippled in an accident (not as severely as Briarlight in the main series, but enough that it impairs her ability to hunt) and lured into the Dark Forest by the promise that they can teach her how to be a great warrior despite this. She is convinced by them that she is useless to her clan if she can't be a normal warrior, and is used as a tool for Mapleshade to continue her quest for revenge against Thunderclan.  Breezepelt Residence: Windclan Mother: Nightcloud Biological Father: Mudclaw Adoptive Father: Crowstar Adoptive Sibling: Hollyleaf Windclan Mentor: Ashfoot Dark Forest Mentor: Mudclaw History: Nightcloud loved Mudclaw, and watched with a broken heart as he was corrupted by fear and greed. When he was finally struck down in battle, and she gave birth to their son alone, she knew that the tiny tom must not be made to live in his father's shadow. So she made a deal with Crowstar that she would raise Hollykit, the daughter he had conceived with Leafpool, but only if Crowstar would claim Breezekit as his own. The two made a life for themselves, and raised the two kits together as littermates. Breezepelt never knew of his real father, but was always frustrated at Crowstar's seemingly aloof attitude towards him. Truthfully, this was how Crowstar interacted with everyone, including Hollyleaf, and although he had a hard time expressing it, he loved both kits dearly. But when the truth finally comes out about Breezepelt's true parentage, Breezepelt convinces him that Crowstar could never love him because he wasn't his real son. He is lured into the Dark Forest by Mudclaw, who pretends to give him the love that Crowstar seemingly never did, and uses Breezepelt's desire for revenge to wage war on Starclan.  No critique desired.
