I'll Believe In Anything – An Iterum!Firestar PMV

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!! Consider this a love letter to @redux-iterum 's Firestar whose character I deeply love and admire.

Colors picked from the Aroace, Asexual and Aromantic flags. Scenes mainly from Charred Legacy

Notes:

This warriors rewrite is so so dear to me, my most favorite part about it is all the relationships with the characters, especially to Firestar!!! This PMV goes through mostly the events leading up to his leader ceremony

Bluestar - We start with her as it was her decision to take in Rusty into the clan that's ultimately changed the lives of everyone in Thunderclan, she's bathed in yellow like sunlight

The lyrics, Give Me Your Eyes, I Need SUNSHINE Fireheart's outlook in life, his positivity something Bluestar thinks to be his strength, to be named -heart means something after all.

Symbolism/Stylistic choice to have Fireheart be the only one to have his eyes present

Your BLOOD - Him with his adoptive family!!! Now you may be thinking, they're not blood related, why them in here? Because I'm going with the phrase, "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb." Families of choice is just as valid families of blood!!!

Side note: It's not the main focus but Tigerclaw's design is a direct opposite to Fireheart's yellow-white with the black-purple

Your BONES - This is referencing the scene where in Fireheart gives Cloudpaw his ultimatum, when he set his foot down, grew his backbone– Where the both of them grew backbones

Your VOICE - THE TRIO, THE FRIENDSHIP, IT WAS RAVENWING AND GREYSTRIPE WHO HELPED FIREHEART CALL OUT TIGERCLAW'S ACTIONS OH THEY MATTER TO ME SM!!!

Your GHOST - Fireheart and Bramblepaw beloved, the ghost of their father haunts them so

FIREHEART'S JOURNEY TO THE MOTHER WOOO WOOOO

Deliberate Art Style change for the dream sequence, with Mernatha and Thlainra!!

HOROA HOROA HOROA, he can never fit into the screen to showcase just how otherworldly and massive he is

Fireheart can only comprehend his eye

Fireheart is nothing more but a blurry sparking ember in Horoa's eye but he makes Horoa believe in Any Thing. (Cats, Mortals etc.)

FIRESTARRRRRRR HE'LL BELIEVE IN ANYTHING

Fanart of the three

Horoa, Suriin and Rohkar from Warriors Iterum

Horoa with his smoke mane

Suriin with water droplets, for the weather, and a white tail for the moon (and a night sky for beauty)

Rohkar with blind eyes for dreams and see the truth

The Three, but resembling the three gods of Redux clan mythology: Horoa, Suriin, and Rokar.

Thanks to @warriorsredux​ for talking this out with me about how this idea would work. Most of these concepts are their words with some of mine sprinkled in.

Lionclaw is all about justice, strength, and loyalty. He’s rather hot-blooded and not the sharpest thorn in the bush. By far, he is Thunderclan’s best fighter and deters most enemies out of a fight with him... except Beetlefoot. They often throw insults at one another across the border and occasionally get into a brawl if Beetle insults Lion’s mom. He’s fairly charismatic and friendly, even making cats in other clans let their guard down, especially those within his generation.

Rookheart has a strong distrust of strangers, is very smart, but isn’t as dedicated to the code as she was in the books. She has that signature cattish pride and may the gods help you if you get on her bad side. She has Rook- as her prefix because someone needed to have at least one kid named after a corvid. She immediately saw through Sol’s deception and could hold her own against his wits, even as an older apprentice. Because she didn’t deserve to die, she would eventually become leader after her foster-father’s death, becoming Rookstar.

Lightningpool has the most unsettling aura out of the three, almost awe-inspiring. Cats often don’t look directly at him when speaking to him. He’s quiet, aloof, serious, and reserved. He doesn’t threaten or insult or bully, just angles his head in another cat’s general direction or informs that it would be in one’s best interest to speak the truth and proceed on what he was doing. He has the amber gene, so when he was born, he was named Stormkit or Juniperkit (can’t remember) and as he aged, his fur turned more gold until his seer ceremony, where he was almost completely gold. He requested to have his prefix changed to a gold name because cats were already getting confused and weirded out so he wanted it simplified. The -pool suffix refers to his uncanny ability to clearly understand Starclan’s words, making him the first owner of the suffix in the Lake Territories.

Here’s a bonus doodle I did of Lightningpool still gray!

Scene from @warriorsredux‘s project, part of chapter 8 where Graypaw and Ravenpaw tell Firepaw the story of Rokhar, Suriin and Horoa. I thought drawing them in a different style would make them look more magical, but I;m not sure it works

I really like the redux, it’s everything Warriors could’ve been if Erins actually put some work into it.

suriin’s a clouded leopard because her ’spots reflected no light but swirled around her pelt like stormclouds’

We’re almost there!

“It couldn’t be.

‘Horoa?’ he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.”

Shoutout to firestar’s leadership blessing scene, it taught me how to draw lions. Seriously, I ADORE this scene in Charred Legacy, I had to draw something for it bc it wouldn’t leave my head.

Firestar has some itty bitty flames around him partly as a reference to “A Kindling” and partly because I think it’s funny to depict his energy as a pint sized Horoa. The bitsy. The itty bitty. The kbity of all time.

(Does this also count as a Horoa design post?)

OH what a lovely thing to wake up to this morning!

[redux-iterum]

You've mentioned before I think that a cat who got away with murder in life will still get got by Horoa and his hunters when they die. But do cats in the living ever get signs that happened? Like, will a Seer get a sign and realize they have to inform their (likely grieving) Clanmates after the fact that Falcontail actually managed to piss of Horoa and they probably shouldn't talk about her any more?

More often than not, yes. But sometimes a cat only gets punished by the gods and the living have no idea. It's up to StarClan and the Three to decide to inform their charges that a dead cat doesn't deserve mourning.
