🔥 its been literally years since i read warriors but...hollyleaf mayb?
HOLLYLEAF IS ONE OF MY FAVES.. i have written essays abt her but for an unpopular opinion i think i will say that while the real life reasons for her not having a power r dumb (killed off cuz they couldnt think of anything.. amazing) and while i dont think it rly makes that much sense that she doesnt have a power when her brothers do, i do think its rly important to her character that she doesnt have a power. feeling disconnected from her siblings and feeling powerless r some of the things that lead her to making some very poor choices, like for example, murder. ashfur deserved it but yknow. still breaking the code in a major way which for her was rly a sign of how messed up she was over all of it.
anyway she didnt rly think she could rely on anyone her world was shattered. her birth broke two codes, one which she’d built her whole life around respecting and trusting and relying on completely, and at least her brothers had these powers that kinda implied they were chosen or blessed by starclan, but hollyleaf didnt have any of that. i think her feeling worthless in that way lead in part to her later decisions. it wasnt just envy at them being ‘special’ and her not having this thing that sets her apart (and again and again throughout the series hollyleaf talks about wanting to be special.. not having powers was a blow) idk where im going with this rly i just have a lot of thoughts abt hollyleaf and her siblings having powers while she doesnt and how that influenced her decisions.
on the other hand i do like seeing what powers ppl give her in aus! i just think shes better off without them. for a lot of reasons. but thats a whole other long post fbgh ty for asking!
