I'm Starting A New Art Series: Firestar's Family Tree!

I'm starting a new art series: Firestar's family tree!

I'll try my best to draw every branch, and hopefully, also the closest relatives of the family's mates (i will draw bramblestar's closest family - tigerstar, goldenflorwer, tawnypelt, sasha and her kits, but not tawnypelt's kits - maybe one day tho?)

I'll also try to keep everyone's designs accurate to cat genetics (expect tortie sandstorm and leafpool soon) but trying to stay as close to canon designs as possible

Starting with PART 1: Crystal the angy momma cat :3

Anyways, here’s my hopes for Moonpaw’s arc - coming from someone with chimerism, as well as partial-DID.

- StarClan prophesizes two cats will be born with special (but opposing) destinies - ultimately, Moonpaw is the result of these two cats’ embryos fusing in the womb pre-utero. StarClan is at a loss for what to do - they did not expect this, and they for whatever reason cannot see into or control Moonpaw’s future now.

- Moonpaw, despite what others would expect, is quite content with the fact that she’s a chimera - she knew, in a sense. She has different aspects of her personality that she contributes to a mixture of these two prophesized cats, and takes comfort in the idea that she’s her own best company. Personally I’d enjoy it if each of these ‘sides’ to her personality had differing goals, opinions, and temperaments, as long as it’s not the whole ‘good half / bad half thing. Maybe she feels conflicted in that she partially wants to become a med cat, and partially a great warrior / deputy?

- Sol AND Moth Flight are the arc’s big bads. Sol tries to manipulate Moonpaw into turning against the clans entirely, and for selfish reasons, whereas Moth Flight is a religious zealot and tries to control her for the sake of ‘furthering StarClan’s will’. Each of these ideas speaks to Moonpaw’s inner self, and she ultimately overcomes both. The title of ‘Changing Skies’ reflects both a change in territories and a change in the Clans’ functioning.

was thinking about the logistics about warrior cat dens and how theyre often depicted with individual beds but wouldnt they realistically just cat pile together?

anyway sibling cat pile

girlfriends 😳
