#smokefur au

[masquerain-with-a-mask]

So as you probably know, Ashfur gives Squirrelflight nightmares in the Smokefur au

Her nightmares are warrior maps

Since in my AU Crowfeather joins Thunderclan to be with Leafpool, Nightcloud and Crow aren't together so her mate will have been Mudclaw and she'll have one she-kit to replace Breezepelt. She'd be called Smokekit and later Smokefur (maybe change her name)

Breezepelt is still in this AU he's just Leaf x Crow kit now. And renamed Breezewing. He's born after the Three are just about ready to be warriors. He'll have a sister named Marigoldkit.

I think Breeze and even Jay will still be prickly cats but maybe more patient/more open to talking out their feelings than in cannon, since Leafpool would have raised them too.

Marigoldkit would be named Marigoldsky and would have been a golden tabby with white spots and paws and unusual blue eyes. Breezewing would be a dark grey-brown tabby with a white splash on his chest and to his shoulder, looking like a wing. Jayfeather would also have a white spot on his shoulder that would reach his arm a bit and it also would be wing shaped.

All of them except Lionblaze and Hollyleaf would be wiry like Crowfeather. Got a bit more of them Windclan genes.

They would have had a rough start, since not all cats liked the new clan switching rule and healers having mates n kits. Probably all have their loyalties questioned y'know how warriors are etc

How would Darktail and his living siblings look like look like if Firestar was his biological father ( pretend Smoke and Onewhisker are never a thing and Fire accepts her in TC with open arms, butterflying away Darktail's daddy issues )

Ooooo interesting idea…. let’s see how this goes.

In this AU, the prophecy is A Great Storm will lead the Clan, and a Fire will cleanse the Darkness. Spottedleaf is perplexed at how long it is. Firepaw joins up, but with a different kind of pressure - to be a fierce fighter and judge of character. Whitestorm becomes deputy instead of Lionheart, and Tigerclaw refuses to kill his old friend. Sandpaw becomes Sandstorm, and Firepaw becomes Fireheart. He saves her, but they only remain close friends. One day Smoke wanders into Thunderclan territory, asking to join up; Tigerclaw’s protests fall on deaf ears, as she offers to be a permanent queen so the warrior mothers can take breaks. Fireheart falls hard - he’s a sucker for Big Confident Ladies - and soon she becomes pregnant.

One night Fireheart goes to see how she’s doing, and she’s gone. Drag marks and tufts of brown fur lead out of camp, and Fireheart tracks it to a somewhat far away clearing by the cliff (where Whiteclaw fell). Tigerclaw and Darkstripe have Smokefur pinned, and Fireheart proceeds to Lose It. He charges in, attacking Tigerclaw, and a startled and distracted Darkstripe is kicked off the cliff by Smokefur. A daunting duel commences, and Tigerclaw is killed by a blow to the chest when Smokefur grabs his tail. He’s unceremoniously dropped into the waters. And Smokefur goes into labor.

Fireheart is panicking, Smokefur is in pain, and all seems lost…until the ghost of Spottedleaf leads Yellowfang to the pair. The ghostly previous and current Thunderclan medicine cats aid Smokefur, and she gives birth to a whopping SIX kits. Sandstorm and a patrol show up in the morning, and the happy but exhausted parents head home.

yes flametail and brightspirit are that image :3

and if this was an anhtro au id imagine smokefur (or just smokey) would be asked "oh what do u smoke? weed? lol" and he'd go "haha yeah. please just pay so i can leave."

i forgot to mention that juniperkit is under brightspirits care until she's weened off of milk but still regularily hangs around her. did i mention the entirety of thunderclan pitches in to help take care of juniperberry and theyre all worried when she starts getting cold and distant and only ever hanging out with jayfeather and smokefur. and how when after juniperberry takes one of flamestars lives brightspirit is trying to comfort her and go "this isnt like you. please juniperberry..."

when flamestar finally dies hes confronted by goldenripple and hes immediately like "huh. huh wuh. wh." "oh hi flamestar!!! heres a reminder of what you did to my CHILD." and makes flamestar relive his mistakes over and over in the form of kits constantly being scared of him and starclan regretting taking flamestar in

wow that's terrible I fucking love it!!! angst :3333

i cant find the image but you unlocked my unskippable dialouge you will regret this :3 beaming everything directly into your brain (also it STARTED as a dsmp warrior cats au but veered off into "holy fuck everyone is so sad")

yes my channel is named dream chamber bc the amount of autism i have is uncontainable. if you think all of this is bad i have a rw "au" where its basically "what if. i unintentionally made purple guy from fnaf intosome critter and made a tyranical government"

ft my boyfriend + a friend (robin is the bf im sure youve seen him around)

smokefur, nightwish (nightriver), and embersoot (embershade) are all flamestar + brightspirit kits. embersoot later dies a few moons after he becomes a warrior and flamestar thinks juniperberry was the cause of it

foxclaw, acorn, and shadowscar are previous ocs that i dabble with sometimes. acorn my beloved murderer

more info: juniperberry became good friends with jayfeather as she was in the med den a Lot, flamestar tried beating juniperkit for talking to him IN FRONT OF THE ENTIRE CAMP and squirrelflight cuffed him around the ears for it, goldenstar later convinces juniperberry to kill flamestar (or at least take one of his lives) by lighting the leader on fire with a burning juniper bush branch, juniperberry hates flamestar so so so fucking much its insane

goldenripple/goldenstar/dream

silvereye (ignore his models eye color the picrew one is correct)

flametail/flamestar

juniperberry

smokefur

brightspirit

nightkit (thats mud all over him)

some interesting facts: goldenripple is supposed to be tall and lanky, actually being the tallest of the group. it also adds to the intimidating factor. he didnt one day go "yeah lets kill kids" it was slow and had many dead warriors involved. goldenstar had only one life remaining bc the other 8 were taken by starclan when he ran off to be a rogue cat

silvereye is an average sized cat, having a smooth round face and a heart-shaped mane (ish? a dewlap kind of). hes also fluffy as fuck and from riverclan, but never knew how to swim. also is he trans? is he cis? the world will never know. silvereye survived the battle bc dream specifically told his cats to not go after the blue cat with a black eye pattern

flametail is the shortest but bulkiest of them. theres a bit of pudge to him as well, and his main fighting strategy is pounding his enemies with his paws and doing the bear thing

^ he does this to kill or at the very least injure cats to the point where they never come back. flamestar also lived a very *very* long life. a good ten generations of cats until he died

brightspirit is as large as flametail but as tall as goldenstar. flametail loves his giant girlfriend so much. shes also p nice but will fuck you up if you give her a reason to. as an elder she was the one to indulge in the kits the most

juniperberry my beloved. when shes posessed her eyes are green and she doesnt blink. shes also the smallest which makes her not much of a threat but weeeelllll

and ya ^_^ nothing much abt flamestars kits other than that smokefur doesnt really like his dad

so what ur saying is flametail x brightspirit is

Also I love this !!! Warrior cat ocs r always so interesting tbh :3 I have a couple of my own that I haven't done anything with in a while XD

You have no idea how much energy it took for me to replace my current pinned message

Making an introduction post cause why not

So hi, my name is Sasha or Liévin, but you can call me Cake or Masquerain if you prefer, all four are fine.

Pronouns are they/moss/he/ey/dew/rain, you can use just one or multiple at a time I don't mind either but I do have a preference for they and moss.

I'm French. Baguette fromage.

I'm a minor and a self-taught artist, been drawing seriously for around 10 years but started drawing cats around 3 years ago.

I had the great idea of hyperfixating on Warriors and have an ashfur issue so yeah there's that

Antpelt lives AU : self-explanatory, you can find stuff about my Antpelt lives AU

Starstorm : au where Ashfur survived the battle of The Broken Code and was banished to the Dark Forest, therefore stripped of his power over the forest, years after the canon, as a result of the Starstorm (lore stuff), Ashfur (alongside with Bramblestar, Squirrelflight, Leafpool and Cloudtail) is reincarnated in ThunderClan while somehow keeping all his memories of his past life. All sort of stuff ensues.

Smokefur AU : random au i created for kicks and giggles while listening to the digital daggers where ashfur, after double dying in alitm, becomes a smoke cat (lore stuff) after escaping superhell (also lore stuff) and causes shit however he can in his current situation, bristlefrost - who's also double dead - has to catch him cause the other smoke cats don't feel like doing their job, she's not having fun.

Murphy's Law AU : Not a warriors au but a rottmnt au, basically, Donnie gets kidnapped by the Foot, they force him to work for them and nobody is happy

[masquerain-with-a-mask]

The smokefur au is very easy to summarize so that's what i'm gonna do but first i'm gonna explain quickly what smoke cats are sorry for making you read through that

Basically you have 3 realms : there's the living realm life, the afterlife, and what comes after the afterlife and that's what we're gonna focus on. When you die or fade away in the afterlife, you either fade away forever (this is what happens most of the time), go to superhell (this is what happens to dark forest cats and some starclan cats) or become a smoke cat.

Smoke cats live in a separate realm of life and afterlife and cannot directly interact with either of their residents, the most they can do to communicate with them is sending visions or dreams/nightmares (note that since the afterlife is closer to them they mostly interact with them, using their inhabitants as intermediaries). They can leave the realm but they practically never do it tbh. The troubles like the "tigerstar is gonna grow up to be evil" thing is just smoke cats being bored af and since they can't fade away they try to distract themselves by causing discord. Smoke cats were basically tasked to look over the cats that are in superhell cause it can happen that they break out of superhell which is basically like being in a coma but since juniperclaw took over the job after alitm in this au they don't have anything to do so they'll probably just cause shit in the living world now.

Ok now we can start with the au it's under the cut

OKAY SO

A light in the mist happens as usual until bristlefrost drowns ashfur and he fades away.

When he wakes up ashfur still feels like he's sinking in deeper and he starts getting pulled down deeper by sea weeds or some shit and he just goes "nope nope nope i'm not disappearing like that not a chance" and starts struggling. he somehow frees himself and swims up to find himself in the dark forest, but the thing is that none of the cats he's standing literally right in front of seems to notice him.

He thinks it's weird but doesn't have a lot of time to dwell on it because whatever the fuck was pulling him down when he was in the water bursts out and tries to grab him again, so he flees again.

It's my au so i get to decide how tf the lore works so ashfur flees towards starclan, crosses the border and somehow manages to leave the afterlife and gets in the leaving realm where the seaweeds or whatever the fuck these things are supposed to be don't follow him because they can't, safe at last, he finally realizes that his appearance changed (see ; the art under the smokefur au tag)

He wonders what the actual fuck happened to him and upon thinking about it guess that his new looks probably have something to do with cats not seeing him despite the fact that he's standing right in front of them (just so you know, a cat fading from the afterlife to end up in superhell doesn't remember fading away)

With this theory in mind, ashfur - now a smoke cat who was supposed to go to superhell but somehow escaped - starts roaming around to try and find something to do

Meanwhile, Bristlefrost, who had also drowned, wakes up in the smoke cats' realm with cats she doesn't know - other smoke cats - telling her "yeah bestie we would let you fade away and become part of the world but actually we need your help to catch the incel cause he escaped" (they don't actually need her help, they just don't feel like doing it themselves) and bristlefrost is like "wtf who are you people" before having an existential crisis cause "wait wtf what i saw wasn't real and just result of my dying brain????"

They don't actually answer her question and just tell her "get ashfur here and then you can actually die" before turning her into a smoke cat so she can do their work in their place and sending her to earth to catch ashfur before he can cause more trouble, that way they don't have to do shit and they have entertainment. Bristlefrost has no clue what is happening except that apparently she has to bring ashfur to these cats she know nothing about so she can actually die. And it's not like she's actually got a choice so she gets to work.

A few weeks pass by and ashfur - who realized that he's double dead at some point - starts to familiarize himself with his new form, finding out that the smoke changes into stuff like fire depending on his emotions, and that despite not being able to communicate with the living cats inside dreams/nightmares nor through signs like he could as a starclan cat, he can apparently give individuals nightmares (what he won't admit is that he actually found this out by accidentally giving a mouse nightmares when he was pissed) and figures out that he still has a way to make squirrelflight suffer. With this in mind, he leaves for the ThunderClan camp.

Bristlefrost, who either spends her days in SkyClan or ShadowClan to check in on the surviving tbc protagonist or having existential crisis and her nights looking for ashfur, eventually sees him lurking on ThunderClan territory during daytime but fails to track him, and after a week or two, she notices that she can't find him anywhere at night. She suspects that he spends his nights in the ThunderClan camp but doesn't understand why because, unlike him, she doesn't give a fuck about finding out how this body works she just wants all this to be over with. She eventually decides that she'd have nothing to lose by trying to prove her theory. So she waits until night falls before heading to the ThunderClan camp.

Turns out that ashfur was the one emitting all this smoke and that he has a squirrelflight who does not seem to be doing too hot (and bramblestar isn't doing any better but he's not exactly relevant here sorry bud). Ashfur threatens bristlefrost because that's ashfur we're talking about and he has an anime monologue about how he won't let this chance pass considering it's most likely his last one. Bristlefrost is not impressed and leaps at him.

She arrives in camp and heads straight to the leaders den because that's where she suspects Squirrelflight to be sleeping, only to be met by a very thick cloud of fiery smoke and embers. She decides to enter the den and try to navigate through the smoke despite all the bad vibes she gets just by being near it

They have an epic anime battle, with ashfur almost whipping bristlefrost's ass, because people tend to forget way too often that he was one of ThunderClan's best fighters back when he was alive, but is only beaten cause maintaining the smoke that is causing squirrelflight to have nightmares and fighting at the same time isn't exactly easy, plus he hasn't mastered all of the abilities he's discovered so far at all cause he's been a smoke cat for like 2 to 3 weeks at most, so bristlefrost manages to beat him up because he isn't a 100% focused on the fight.

She brings him back to the smoke cats' realm and there he's finally trapped in the illusion that is his superhell and put under juniperclaw's watch like the other cats that are put in superhell (cause juniperclaw became something similar to a smoke cat when he took over the job i haven't read alitm yet and it shows in this entire au) and bristlefrost is now allowed to fade after refusing the other smoke cats' offer to become a smoke cat like, forever, cause she's seen what being a smoke cat is like and frankly she's not very impressed. So bristlefrost fades away and is double dead.

I'm still not done tho.

So to explain superhell better, basically the cats are trapped in a bubble that is the color i associate them with because it's aesthetically pleasing and it's easier to keep track of them that way, and they're not exactly kept in the smoke cats realm, they were before, but when juniperclaw took over the job they were moved to a place that is way more aesthetically pleasing because i have drawing ideas thank you very much and this place is basically a huge pool that's very deep (not infinite tho) where most of the bubbles containing the cats in superhell are put (some of them are kept outside the water if they need higher maintenance and because it's very aesthetic)

Superhell is not very fun as you can guess, basically the cat is trapped in a timeloop where they relive the worst moments of their lives and/or their worst fears depending on the loop, and to add onto it, when cats are put in superhell, they don't remember what happened between the moment they died and the moment they were put in superhell unless they break out of their bubble, and when the loop is done, they lose memories of the previous loop. I'll let y'all imagine how cats that have been there for a while like hawkfrost are faring.

At first when ashfur was put in superhell his bubble was kept outside the water cause him breaking out of superhell is the last thing the smoke cats and juniperclaw wanted, but after some time he was put in the water cause his bubble wasn't unstable or anything so there was no reason to believe that he would possibly break out anytime soon.

Ashfur ends up in superhell, and his superhell is basically whether his entire life (his worst fears go with it tbh), or the fire scene but a bit different and with a twist and that's what we're gonna focus on (i had actually started writing an os about this part of the au a few months ago but ao3 deleted it and i had forgotten to make a backup for the story smh)

I have no idea what loop we're on but it's far from the first one and Ashfur wakes up in the ThunderClan camp because it smells like something is burning. He gets out of the warriors den, taking note that it's completely empty, and, ah shit, the camp is on fire, he tries to leave, stumbles globally unharmed to whatever the fuck he was standing on during the fire scene i have never read po3 leave me alone and same as squirrelflight in the books he tries to move it to avoid, y'know dying, except that squirrelflight arrives, he asks her for help in moving the log (gonna say it's a log to make my life easier) but instead she pushes it into the fire before leaving.

So ashfur is left alone in the burning camp with no way of running away and he basically dies. Except that he wakes up. And he's underwater.

Turns out that he somehow managed to break out of superhell and is all the way down to the bottom of the water of the realm where cats are kept.

To be completely honest with y'all, the moment after a cat breaks out of superhell is far from being the best cause, like i said, they'll remember what happened between the moment they died for the first time and the moment they were put in superhell, as well as the loops they went through. Ashfur is now having an existential crisis.

He swims up after he somehow managed to calm down. To end up face to face with Juniperclaw once he get to the surface who, upon seeing him, probably says something along the lines of "god fucking damnit i hate my job" but, to be completely honest with y'all, ashfur is kind of a mess at the moment cause he's very disoriented and still having his existential crisis like "how long have i been here how is this even a thing who are you people why would you do this to me" cause he woke up from his coma like 30 minutes ago at most

Juniperclaw is surprised by the fact that he kinda pities this incel when seeing him so miserable. Then he remembers that he has a job and that this guy deserves what's happening to him so he puts him back to sleep and back in his superhell.

Time passes by, juniperclaw doesn't tell the smoke cats about how ashfur escaped superhell and they never ask cause cats breaking out of super hell doesn't happen nearly enough for them to be very worried about it.

And then ashfur breaks out of superhell again and, upon seeing him again, juniperclaw is like "cats breaking out of superhell is supposed to be uncommon how are you doing this" and ashfur is like "kzkalpejrj3kieozokzuejekj i wanna go home"

Basically from this point on i have a few possibilities but this part of the au isn't nearly developed enough so i'm not gonna explain it

However what i can tell you is that the au ends by juniperclaw allowing ashfur's spirit to fade away cause remember that he became somewhat similar to smoke cats when taking over the job.

This got long but I'm done for now bye

[masquerain-with-a-mask]

Ashfur, but he's a smoke cat

this is based off of something from my lore that I'll explain later

probably
