Char & Cats

[chardrawscats]

Hi! I’m Char, aka @thegabberwocky. I made this account to pay homage to my childhood love of Warrior Cats and practice my character design skills. I will be revamping old Warrior Cats designs I made in the past and then eventually move onto characters I haven’t drawn before.

If you want to see a particular cat or have a question, please send an ask! I really would like some cat requests :)

Please keep these factors in mind:

- I haven’t read any of the books since ~2019. The last book I read was probably the first of the Broken Code arc.

-My interpretation/perception of a cat comes before canon in my designing process. -You can use/edit my designs for anything, with or without credit.

-This is just for fun and has no schedule since I’m a college student and not actively in the fandom anymore.

-Feel free to request versions of a character I’ve already drawn (ex. as an apprentice, in StarClan, or even an AU)

I just wanted to say I love your art/designs! Your style is very unique, and I love that you give the cats such interesting shapes and silhouettes.

Thank you so, so much! Your words are touching. I’ve only been making these designs for little over a week but I have already made improvements in my shape language and diversifying designs of the same species. I appreciate the kindness from you and everyone who is reblogging/liking/following :) I read the tags, and even if I don’t directly respond, know that I am flattered by the support

Eeltail! She is a Riverclan warrior in Mapleshade's Vengeance who was on the patrol with Splashfoot and Appledusk when they rescue Mapleshade and her drowned kits from the stormy river. She races downstream first, the moment she realizes Mapleshade's kit Patchkit was under the water, but is unable to rescue him. Other than that we don't know a whole lot about her! She seems nice.

Goosefeather! He is Bluestar's uncle and the doomed 'destined' medicine cat in thunderclan at the beginning of Bluestar's Prophecy. For a long time that was all we knew of him, and that he chased Crookedstar into the stepping stone that broke his jaw, before he got his own novella. With that short story though he presents an intresting premise of a cat with arguably more prophetic power than Jayfeather with no ability to change the course of history, forced to know every evil long before it comes to pass with no way to prevent it. This explanation both confirms and contradicts his 'future' behavior in Bluestar's prophecy in that his fatalistic nature makes way more sense, but his part played especially in Moonflower's death seems almost apathetic on re read. I don't know! he's an interesting character but I walk away from his narrative not knowing what readers are supposed to take from it besides everything is doomed and we have no free will haha. Fan assigned goracle (gay oracle) based on vibes
