Description So yeah, i thought that i should give him a design already- and i' happy of how it came up
Β I like to think of him as a classic tabby and quite a fluffy fella (let's not forget Squirrelflight is his momma, that's a lot of fur to live up to)
About him, i think he is adorable. It's nice to have a insecure, cowardly cat as the main POV. He reminds me of Ravenpaw.
Like i said in my review, i just wish he was a lilttle less whiny.

This might be my favorite drawing of this fluffy smol bean! I admit that I also agree with having an insecure cat as the main character (for now) is incredibly refreshing. I'm so in love with his character! His sister...not so much heehee. Anyway, his fur looks the perfect blend of his parents, and I love the color palette you chose. <3

Aww! Thank you a lot ;o;
It's really nice to know my struggles with the color palette were worth it

And about him, i like lil Alder. Sparkpaw... i have mixed feelings about her. I find her adorable and amusing but she comes off as a little of a mary-sue sometimes. Also, it annoys me a little that she is like the exact copy of Squirrelpaw (as far as personality goes)

dehani In reply to Saakumi [2016-05-12 22:04:16 +0000 UTC]

LOL it really was worth it!!

The way you see Sparkpaw is how I see her. I don't even see her as adorable...mostly annoying, tbh ;u; I will admit that I found myself amused at parts where she was jealous of Needlepaw because Alderpaw was starting to admire Needlepaw almost as much as he admired his sister. I thought that dynamic was interesting.

No, they don't.
The book starts when they're only apprentices.

I'm actually glad she did. You see, there's not much to do with them while they are kits, since they just hang out around camp. It's better if you just start with the real stuff right away :L

True XD. In my opinion, they got their tabby stripes from Bramblestar XD

Amberstorm233 In reply to Arcticwolf39905 [2016-03-20 04:46:49 +0000 UTC]

Actually, Squirrelflight has to be a tabby. All ginger cats are. However, they can be ticked tabbies which is a less noticeable tabby pattern.

How come I never noticed Sandstorm having tabby stripes, and she is a pale ginger.

Amberstorm233 In reply to Arcticwolf39905 [2016-03-20 05:40:11 +0000 UTC]

She's mentioned with barely visible stripes either in one of the books or in her description, I don't really know which.

Arcticwolf39905 In reply to Amberstorm233 [2016-03-20 07:39:55 +0000 UTC]

Oh. But how does Sqirrelflight have tabby stripes? It never mentions it in that book...

Amberstorm233 In reply to Arcticwolf39905 [2016-03-20 15:56:29 +0000 UTC]

True, but the Erins don't really pay attention to genetics. So if Squirrely was real, she'd havw to be a tabby.

Arcticwolf39905 In reply to Amberstorm233 [2016-03-20 16:03:10 +0000 UTC]

Oh. Like, wait. In a way, aren't Lionheart and Goldenflower both pale ginger? They aren't considered tabbies.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Amberstorm233 In reply to Arcticwolf39905 [2016-03-20 16:25:03 +0000 UTC]

Yes they are, but they'd have to be tabbies. All ginger cats are tabbies, but it's not always noticeable. For example, there's the ticked pattern,. This is a tabby pattern that isn't noticeable. Perhaps Lionheart and Goldenflower have that pattern, or it's another case of the Erins not paying attention to genetics.

Saakumi In reply to Arcticwolf39905 [2016-03-19 20:18:38 +0000 UTC]

i imagine both being tabbies, but Squirrelflight being the classic tabby one, inherited by Sandstorm, who inherited it by Brindleface.

I think the book is designed to get new readers into warriors so it makes sense that it would start when they become apprentices
