Day 12 - Favourite Protaganist + Day 13 - Favourite Antagonist
Was unable to do yesterday’s one and the timing made it perfect to combine them. They might be the very basic first protaganist and antagonist but they did their jobs well. I feel like they each subverted some of the classic hero+villain tropes in a subtle way. Drink is a sake bomb.

Did a challenge made by @jayie-the-hufflepuff ! This was super fun. I think I’ll do the challenge for the other arcs in the future when I’m im the mood :)
Rip Redtail
“There’ll come a day when you’ll be so powerful, you’ll have no need for friends. And when that day comes, I promise you will never regret that you chose to be a warrior.“
He’s a gigantic brown tabby with striking face markings and multiple scars. His eyes are amber and his leader mark is sharp on his forehead.
Once dead his pelt becomes weighed down by blood and a long canyon goes from his chest to his hind legs.

Whewww that’s a lot of cats! I tried to stay away from repeats but what can I say, I love Sandstorm and her kids!!
Also was challenged to try and pick some less popular relationships and since I have so many favorites, I think they still qualify even if they’re not at the very top of my list. Right????? Because listen, it would just be full of FireFamily…
Firestar - The OG boy! The one that started everything so many years ago! I have always had such a soft spot in my heart for Firestar, being able to watch his adventure unfold from an outcast to one of the most respected cats in all of the clans, as a little girl. I’ve always loved Firestar- I think one of my favorite scenes is when he sits with Yellowfang when she’s dying and tells her about every good memory they have together. I love the idea of him going from this little tiny kit to this just massive, stronk cat. I could never imagine him as a tabby, so I love his Abyssian designs!! I bet when he purrs it’s REALLY OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD
Graystripe- It has been so long since I have read a Warriors book that I haven’t been able to keep up on Graystripe, other than he had his own book and it was really good ;; I always loved how loyal of a friend he was towards Firestar, but I distinctly remember being incredibly frustrated with him when I was first reading through the series and his romance with Silverstream, followed by his subsequent bouncing between clans. Now I don’t mind it, but when I was little, I was MAD. I also like that he was able to settle back down as he got older with Millie- I really like that it showed he could love again and was able to move on while still honoring Silverstream.
Ravenpaw- I haven’t read Ravenpaw’s story yet, either- but I love this boy! Big ears are a must. Very nervous boy! One of my top 10 favorite characters- I love how even though he was afraid, he came back to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Firestar against BloodClan. I don’t really have too much to say about him- dark kitty, white patch on chest! Loved his brother Dustpelt so much but never felt as good as him.
Tigerstar- A horrible man- disgusting! But his character was already really interesting to me, and the characterization that Cushfuddled made with him was spot on- I love!! I love the concept that he legitimately thought that taking over ThunderClan was in their best interest and he was honestly convinced that he was doing the right thing. Big cat, maybe Maine Coon or Norweigan Forest cat? Just BIG AND LARGE. His design pulls a lot of inspiration for Nifty-senpai’s design for Tigerstar!
Spottedleaf- Man, I was never really a fan of Spottedleaf and I absolutely HATE FirexSpotted. I feel like it was more of a tiny crush on Firepaw’s end like “ooh she’s pretty! uwu” but nothing more than that. I really hate the writing on how that was dragged out into him loving her forever. I mean, when he joined the clan, she was literally old enough to be his mother? I just… don’t like it. Design wise- she is small and has round-shapes Her ears are small and round, compared to Redtail’s, that are large and have tufts. While Redtail’s design is much more simple, Spottedleaf’s is much busier (based on my favorite design for her by cityswarriorkitties on Tumblr). I honestly love in Twin Shadows (by Cushfuddled) SandxSpotted ;; I love it so, so much
Bluestar- Bluestar is the worst. 10/10, dislike. I love my design for her, but just in general dislike her character a ton. I could do a complete character analysis for her as to why I dislike her, but I think my main reason is by naming Brightpaw ‘Lostface’. Even if she was mentally struggling at the time (which I think we have all been there!), she, someone who holds the HIGHEST power and respect in the clan, took our her anger on a CHILD (a literal CHILD) by naming her 'Lostface’. You cannot take our your anger on a literal child. Imagine if a teacher- no, the principal- went to school and was having a really hard time with everything in life, and took a child who was just HORRIBLY misfigured and would be for the rest of her life- and named her LOSTFACE. Not even that, a Warrior name is almost sacred to Warrior cats- it is their entire identity. It’s just cruel, disgusting, and I could never forgive her after that fact.

Redraw of a page from Warriors: Tigerstar and Sasha, originally illustrated by Don Hudson. Took about 7hrs and 22mins, according to Procreate, but I like how it turned out. Sasha design inspired by @transrowanstar and Tigerstar design inspired by @warriorsproject
{{ Shadowpaw }}
New kid on the block? Named Shadowpaw? I can dig it B)
It’s been forever since I’ve read a main series book (end of Omen of the Stars?) but I saw there was a new book released today. In order to celebrate, have this little Shadowpaw fellow!

And I was a hero
Early in the morning
I ain’t no hero
In the night-
I am my father’s son
