Official SE Title and Cover Reveal - StormClan's Folly

Stripestar has always imagined a life beyond the forest, but, as leader of ThunderClan, he knows that his duty to his clanmates comes first. When tragedy strikes and WindClan’s leader, Galestar, approaches with an offer of allyship, he swiftly accepts. But he and Galestar have history, a connection that only deepens as they continue to work together.

Galestar loves being a WindClan cat, but her relationship with Stripestar makes her question the strict Warrior code. Determined to build a family together, she and Stripestar decide to combine their Clans into one. However, StarClan refuses to approve, and vows to punish them for breaking with Clan tradition.

Stripestar and Galestar decide to leave the forest and seek new land for their Clan. But they are soon faced with the reality of life without StarClan’s guidance, sending them down a path of peril, loss, and despair. Can these cats find the way forward without StarClan, or are they doomed to a grim fate that will echo for generations to come?

Coming August 8th, 2025.

unironically stormclan is the coolest thing the writers have done in years

Like?? This kinda fucks ngl. Secret history of the Clans causing a breakaway group, forbidden love with a "Great Betrayal," playing around with the afterlife systems and giving StormClan cats a unique connection to their ancestors...

They're even called "Storm" Clan. Storms are objectively cool as hell. The 13 year old within me is giddy with glee.

YOU KNOW WHY ELSE I LIKE THE IDEA OF STORMCLAN

because during the time period where books like pinestar's choice and goosefeather's curse take place there's a TON of very windclan-like named cats in thunderclan

harepounce, rabbitleap, fallowsong, even stagleap

what if these are remnants from thunderclan and windclan literally being the same clan, what if these cats (besides rabbitleap, who we know when he was born) were born during the time of stormclan or maybe just after

and squirrelwhisker and eaglestorm were mates and had windflight, what if eaglestorm was allowed to move to thunderclan to be with his mate BECAUSE THEY HAD BEEN BORN OR MET AND HAD FALLEN IN LOVE WHEN STORMCLAN WAS STILL A THING and then when stormclan separated back into windclan and thunderclan eaglestorm decided he would rather go to thunderclan to be with squirrelwhisker instead of continuing to be a windclan cat

Now for the last of the Ivypool's Heart related ref sheets, and the last of the ref sheets for now, it's Galestar's former mate, Stripestar of StormClan!

Stripestar has no physical description given other than his pattern, so I came up with my own for him. He's decently-sized, but not huge, and with nice long, thick, soft fur. I tried to keep him looking fairly distinct from my Tiger family designs. ^^ No scars for the same reason as Galestar, don't want to contradict anything that might come out later.

For his pattern, Stripestar is described as a brown tabby tom with amber eyes. I tried to make his stripes very thick and dark and distinct as a nod to his name. I love how warm his colors turned out.

Overall, I'm really happy with how he turned out.
