warriors: genetics project

In canon, Berryheart is described as a black-and-white she-cat with amber eyes.

In canon*, Quailkit is described as a pale grey-and-white cat, and Storkkit is described as a tortoiseshell with ginger patches. (Again, for genetic reasons, Storkkit cannot physically be a ginger cat.)

Two more of our missing kits, Quailkit (lilac) and Storkkit (chocolate) are Gorsepaw’s two littermates. We know nothing about how they died during the time WindClan was driven away from their home or anything except their parentage. Like Andy said about our last set, I’ve become somewhat attached to these two infants against my better judgement :,)

In canon, Gorsepaw is described as a small, lean, brown tabby tom with short, thick fur.

(Remember when I said I was done with old WindClan? I immediately remembered after posting that that Morningflower did, indeed, have kits. Sorry, Gorsepaw.)

In canon, Morningflower is described as a tortoiseshell-and-white she-cat with amber eyes.

Relevant retcons: She is no longer Ashfoot’s sister.

In canon, Onestar is described as a small and lean, mottled, pale brown tabby tom with amber eyes.

In canon, Stagleap is described as a huge, stocky, broad-shouldered dark brown tom with amber eyes. (His two parents are too light for him to really be a dark brown, but hey, this isn’t so far off.)

In canon, Ryestalk is described as a gray tabby she-cat with soft fur and amber eyes. She is Mudclaw and Tornear’s dam.

In canon, Doespring is described as a light brown she-cat. (Since that’s the same description her dad gets, I imagine she takes after him quite strongly, at least in terms of appearance.)

In canon, Hareflight is described as a light brown tom. He is Mistmouse’s mate.

Relevant retcons

Windflight is no longer Thistleclaw, Rosetail, and Sweetpaw’s father. This means this litter is no longer half siblings with Dappletail, Thrushpelt, and Tawnyspots.

Alt Dark Forest design (CW: Blood)

In canon, Mistmouse is described as a light brown tabby she-cat. She was one of the last tunnelers (hence the big paws!) and a descendent of Windstar.

Relevant retcons

In canon, Jay is described as a mangy black-and-white she-cat with a grizzled, graying muzzle, and no teeth.

Relevant retcons: none.

Relevant retcons:

Featherkit and Cricketkit are no longer Runningwind’s kits; instead, they are now fathered by Stormtail and are the half siblings to Bluestar and Snowfur.

Despite my best efforts, I grew very attached to these two “Missing Kits” retcons! If anyone wants to hear me yap about my headcanons for these two, feel free to reply in the comments with any questions!
