Red Pearls Fun-Facts!

Hawkflower was originally going to be named Hawkstripe but it felt too close to Bright’s moms name to be comfy so I changed it literally last minute. I have unused drafts calling him Hawkstripe.

I have “special additions” planned for Ravenwind, Willowthorn, and possibly Smithy and Scrap.

Briarspots has been in love with Smokestripe since they were apprentices.

Addershine and Leafleg were good friends as apprentices, but Leafleg’s treatment of Grayfeather caused a huge rift between the two.

Willowthorn has met Smithy

Brackenclaw will be the last of his family to die

Willowthorn had a very brief crush on Brackenclaw when he was first assigned to her, but that quickly gave way to respect. To this day she wants to impress him.

Maplenose suffers from gigantism

Fallingfeather never moved past Flowerpaw

Antpaw is strategic in ways Willowthorn never could be

Slatestar still trusts Brightfur

This is going to get worse before it gets better

HIGHLANDCLAN MENTORS- SNOWSPOTS, BLACKTONGUE, HAWKFLOWER

snowspots is the mentor for Brownpaw. she’s very... out there. she doesn’t say much, and when she does, she always sounds like she’s off somewhere else, thinking of something completely unrelated. she seems almost alien to the clans, but then again so does Hawkflower, kind of.

Blacktongue is the mentor for Woodpaw. Blacktongue was the second choice for Deputy of highlandclan, but was passed by for Coldbone. Blacktongue doesn’t openly defy Coldbone, but every cat knows that he resents Ghoststar’s choice.

Hawkflower is the mentor for Lillypaw, as well as her and Woodpaw’s father. He used to only speak french (don’t... dont ask why cats speak different languages hes just from far away okay relax), but learned to speak english after about 6 moons in the clans. His accent is very thick. anyway, Hawkflower is a very happy and peppy warrior. He always has something positive and insightful to say.

Warrior Cat OC's

I came up with a Small family of Warrior Cat OC's from Pre-Into the Wild. Like Pre Mapleshade and such. They are Sandclaw (Shadowclan's best dad), Gorsefang (Dark Forest Resident) and their kits Yarrowfoot (made of anxiety and curiousity) and Hawkflower (Trans momma and resident badass Lesbian).

I'm going to put this undercut and give the kits their own posts but let's start with mom and dad!

Gorsekit is born a few days after Sandkit. Gorsekit grows up alone with no siblings, but with a loving mother named Larksong. Her father Bluetail had died in a border skirmish before her birth. Her mother loved her and encouraged her daughter to play with other kits. Gorsekit never saw much reason to play, mostly because no other kits listened to her rules. Sandkit at least considered her rules and orders so when Larksong asked Gorsekit to play she went to Sandkit. Sandkit thought Gorsekit was odd, but fun because she didn't think he was bad for being small. Sandkit was the runt of a big litter of 6 kits and rarely got much attention. The two gravitated together throughout their lives.

Once an apprentice Gorsepaw's need to control those around her got even worse when a bolt of lightning struck her mother in front of her, killing Larksong. The medicine cat claimed that it was no women of Star Clans, but rather a freak accident no one could control. Gorsepaw's subconscious need for complete control began to turn deadly after that. Her mother had long helped keep her control issues from spiralling away but with her gone Horsepaw started to manipulate every cat around her. She always has a way with words and managed to turn everyone of her flaws into someone else's fault. No one hated Gorsepaw, they thought she had the short end of the stick and they pitied her. The only cat Gorsepaw didn't manipulate or harm was Sandpaw.

During this Sandpaw stuck by Gorsepaw's side. He was struggling as an apprentice due to his small size and weak frame. Gorsepaw took it upon herself to help Sandpaw improve, the two would sneak out to train together. Gorsepaw towered over Sandpaw, but never threatened him. The day Sandpaw got his warrior name was the day he saved his Border patrol from a Thunderclan ambush. Having broken off to hunt a vile, Sandpaw found the waiting ambush. Unwisely Sandpaw attacked them, loudly proclaiming them trespassers. The sounds of fighting and Sandpaw's howls brought the patrol to him. They patrol found Sandpaw taking down a Tom twice his size his claws digging deeper into his foe than any other. Thus he was named Sandclaw.

Gorsepaw got her warrior name for her long Fangs, nothing to heroic. In fact Gorsefang avoided standing out too much, only enough to get the clan to do things her way. She and Sandclaw became mates shortly after Sandclaw got his warrior name and not a moon later they were expecting kits.

The coming of her kits only made Gorsefang even more manipulative. She became outright bossy and snappish. The clan put it off as nerves having lost her parents early in her life. Gorsefang was ecstatic about her coming kits and she gave birth to two Tom's. Sandclaw named the smallest Yarrowkit, and Gorsefang named the biggest Hawkkit.

Now Gorsefang was not a good mother. She was already manipulative, having turned most of the clan either against one another or turning cats on themselves. Now with Kita Gorsefang believed she had the means of completely redoing the clan in her image. She knew she'd never be leader. But maybe Hawkkit would.

Gorsefang ensured that Hawkkit and Yarrowkit only believed what she told them. Everyone else lied, only their Mama knew the truth. When it became clear they Yarrowkit was to weak to uphold her vision Gorsefang neglected him. She withheld milk, claiming that he was a 'little glutton' who 'never left enough for his brother', and so on. She also managed to make it seem that any little harm that befell her or anyone else was Yarrowkit's fault. Yarrowkit, turned in on himself.

Hawkkit on the other paw, was the golden kit. He could do nothing wrong and if he did he was told not to be his brother. Gorsefang forced her visions and ideas on Hawkkit who was more their father in personality. Hawkkit knew herself enough to rebel some. But it always ended badly.

Whilst the Queens tried to voice concern Gorsefang's deceit was to entrenched. That was until Sandclaw witnessed his Kit's abuse at its worst.

Yarrowkit ran away one day, and Hawkkit followed. Sandclaw and a patrol went to find them, Gorsefang howling for her kits at camp. They found Hawkkit and Yarrowkit staring down a Fox trap and muttering to each other. Sandclaw talked them away gently and grew concerned when. They flinched from the kindness. It was then that Sandclaw saw bite marks on Yarrowkit's scruff. He tried to find out what caused them but his kit would not say. Sandclaw gently took the two home furious with himself for allowing his duties to interfere with the family he loved so dearly.

Upon returning to the nursery Sandclaw vowed to remain by the kits sides along with his mate and went to tell Jaystar, their leader, he was retiring so young. As he left there was a small talk between mother and kits, then a yowl of pain. Sandclaw turned back to find Gorsefang biting down on Yarrowkit and hissing to Hawkkit about obeying and never acting out again. Disturbed Sandclaw lunged at Gorsefang, the cat who had stayed by him al his life, and slew her. She cursed him to never draw blood again as she died.

Sandclaw accepted this and any punish.ent to befall him for killing his mate, but Jaystar believed he was in the right. The work and manipulation of Gorsefang was being revealed and the clan had a lot to undo.

Sandclaw retired from Warrior duties to serve in the Nursery as a guard and adoptive parent to any orphans. But first he worked to love, nurture and cherish his four moon old kits that Gorsefang had nearly broken. It took moons but eventually Hawkkit, now Hawkpaw, and Yarrowkit, now Yarrowpaw, recoved some. Yarrowpaw suffered anxiety and never truly became a warrior, rather he moved more towards the Medicine cat den and eventually became the Medicince cat Yarrowfoot. Yarrowfoot fell in love with a Tom named Bramblefur, and the two shared a kind romance that never resulted in a mateship.

Yarrowfoot would later discover on a trip to the Moonstone. That his Mother Gorsefang, was in the Dark Forest and had sworn revenge on Shadowclan. Yarrowfoot did all he could to ensure her treacherous whispers never fully took hold in the clan again.

As an apprentice Hawkpaw eventually revealed to their dad what had been said that Gorsefang flew into a rage about. Hawkpaw was a Molly, not a Tom. Sandclaw immediately supported his daughter and did everything to ensure she felt supported to as he did Yarrowfoot when he came forward as Gay.

Hawkpaw found that she loved Hunting and became a hunter for the clan. Upon recieving her warrior name, Sandclaw approached Jaystar with a request. Hawkpaw cried when Jaystar named her Hawkflower, showing that the clan saw her as she saw herself. She mated with a Molly named Flintear and had three litters with her until the final litter of 3 Molly's and 2 Tom's, killed Flintear. By then Sandclaw had retured to the elders den and took her father's place in the Nursery caring and guarding all kits.
