frogleap, a fluffy golden tabby she-cat with green eyes, and toadtail, a dark brown tabby tom with green eyes. siblings who live in skyclan ^^

Frogleap - An energetic and friendly she-cat. Frogleap is always eager to help out, she likes all her clanmates so she will help them out when she can, and she gets bored easily, so having something to do really helps her pass the time. Frogleap is very close to Toadtail, despite their personalities being total opposites, with Frogleap being much more chatty than her usually solem and quiet brother. Frogleap’s excessive energy is what she believes is behind her ability to leap impressively, even for a SkyClan cat, and it’s an ability she is proud of, she has a certain tree she scratches when she jumps to measure her jump height, and she will always excitedly drag Toadtail to this tree when she sets a new record, 15/10

Toadtail- A serious and thoughtful tom. Toadtail is less extroverted and optimistic than his sister, he values his time alone as it helps him think, but he always makes time for Frogleap, he enjoys her company, and he can’t say that about many cats. Toadtail likes to approach things with logic and reasoning rather than with his heart, and he will often get fustrated with cats who act impulsively on feelings, even Frogleap, but he tries to hide any fustration with her and it never lasts long, other cats he will often judge for life. He is much less popular in SkyClan than Frogleap, but he doesn’t care, as long as the cats he cares about are on good terms with him, anyone else doesn’t matter, 14/10

oooh can you go into what your plan was for the story of snowstar's supporters who lived? i'm especially curious about acornbee, since her connection to snowstar made me realize that you don't often see villains such as snowstar who have a healthy romantic relationship with someone. (it at least appeared healthy in the comic!)

 EEP THANK YOU it was intended to be a healthy relationship! OR WELL I’m not sure if it would be healthy truly considering Acornbee did like, enable Snowstar a lot, and they were two toxic people placed together, but I did want to portray in the comic that they did genuinely both love each other. They loved each other and they actually would have been pretty decent parents to their kits had they stayed around (but that doesn’t change the fact that Acornbee straight up abandoned them sooo... no matter how many ifs or buts they aren’t good people for sure) but that was an intentional thing! I wanted my villains to be rounded, so while they weren’t good people at all, they still had some interesting qualities that balanced them out, you know? Not pure evil, but just because they had the capability of doing nice things from time to time that did not justify or excuse at all what they did.

As for the villains and supporters!! I’ll do a brief little list right here under the cut :>!!

Acornbee - Touched upon it a bit already, but essentially she would try to kill Minkstar as an act of revenge and when that failed, she would have run away from the territories and never returned. Her kittens would be taken in by Minkstar and Blackcloud to raise instead, and Acornbee would essentially just fall off the radar, living the rest of her days as a loner. 

Copperclaw & Gorsefang - While not necessarily villains, I do consider these two antagonists in the comic because they do support Snowstar at first! They’re separated from the rest of the villain cast though because they weren’t really doing this of their own free will; at first they looked up to and admired Snowstar, but later they began to realize she was wrong and doing horrible things, but at that time Snowstar began threatening the lives of Hollycloud and Emberstorm so neither Gorsefang nor Copperclaw felt safe enough to rebel against her. Gorsefang would end up being spurred into action against Snowstar by Blackcloud’s support and comfort and would end up killing Raintail -- the tom who had the final killing blow on Burnetpelt, as well as executed Antfoot, and also was friends with Elmfoot. Copperclaw would end up tackling her sister Emberstorm during the final confrontation to beg her to stop fighting and then would run off once she realized Emberstorm was fighting against Snowstar. Copperclaw was very young and manipulated by Snowstar so she was very conflicted, scared, and confused over what happened; she spent a few moons away from RiverClan but came back around before the third moon arrived. Minkstar takes her back in and Copperclaw works to rebuild her standing in RiverClan, whereas Gorsefang stayed the entire time and spent that time also working to rebuild their standing in RiverClan. Gorsefang and Chubstream would actually end up finding love with each other too and they’d become romantic partners :>

Raintail, Toadtail, Elmfoot, Commapelt, Sandwhisker, Harrierheart & Loachpelt - Grouping them all together since they’re supporting villains/back-up villains. Raintail would be killed off by Gorsefang in the final battle; Toadtail would be killed off by Owlfoot in the final battle; Elmfoot is killed off by Otterflower and Hollycloud in the final battle; Commapelt runs away after the deaths of Laurelstar and Snowstar, as well as the retreat of Yellowstar; Sandwhisker is killed by Roseface in the final battle; Harrierheart runs away permantly from the territories like Commapelt; Loachpelt is killed by Nightthroat when he and Batfoot stage a rescue mission to save Vervainstripe from being held as ThunderClan’s prisoner. 

Laurelstar & Whimbrelthroat - Together since they’re ThunderClan’s baddies. Essentially, Laurelstar would be cornered and killed off by Lionstorm after confessing she was in on the whole thing during the final battle. Whimbrelthroat would track down Vervainstripe in the middle of the final battle and attempt to kill him off, but Whinchatwhisker would rescue him and kill Whimbrelthroat instead, taking out years of pent up rage and resentment out on her sister who was at the source for all of it. There’s an old doodle on here of Vervainstripe staring in shock with a blood splatter across his face which is specifically referencing this scene of Whinchatwhisker rescuing him from Whimbrelthroat. 

Yellowstar & Redflower - After like, ages of being horrible, Yellowstar and Redflower get their comeuppance. Redflower is cornered by Vervainstripe and Nightthroat and attacked pretty badly by the both of them (though it’s not,, uncalled for considering Redflower literally uh tortured Vervainstripe :| ) and Redflower retreats, badly wounded but alive. Yellowstar also ends up retreating from final battle alongside Redflower. There’s some details provided in the screenshot below but as an abridged version: basically, she and Redflower have kits for the sole purpose of carrying on Aspenstar’s lineage. Redflower succumbs to his injuries soon after and Yellowstar still isn’t being treated for her wounds; she ends up having her kits and they get taken to RiverClan much to her hatred. She confronts Roseface again (which, fun fact btw: she and Sandwhisker are the ones who ripped out his eye so by this time in the timeline he has scars just like Minkclaw’s -- which pissed yellowstar off MORE), they have a fight, and Yellowstar ends up dying of her wounds alone and stranded from the Clans.

So, basically, a lot of the supporting cast antagonists do actually die, just not all right away !

Toadtail

Toadtail was one of Brackenstars strongest followers alongside Jaggedscar. He acted as deputy when smokestride left Brackenstars group for the rebellion near the end of the war. Toadtail is a brutal tom-cat who was a dangerous enemy in battle. Despite his more... round... structure, he is quick moving. He earned the suffix tail in his name after it got mangled by a fox and required amputation. He would die in battle after his throat was sliced by Vultureface (stormclan)
