Appledusk is based on a silver golden ticked tabby, an idea by Alex Harrier

Shyheart & Willownose have been swapped with Duskwater as AppleReed kits. Both of Reedshine's kittens were named after Appledusk

Rushtooth is Applefrost's kit. His backstory is a sort of 'evil Crookedstar'; Mapleshade's first and most successful manipulation attempt. He took down several of his family members.

Reedwhisker is now the father of Duskfur's kits. This is very close to canon; Kate has said she wanted him to be, but it didn't end up being printed in the final allegiances.

Reedwhisker surrendering to Darktail is the main reason why Curlfeather & co killed him, but him being an absent father didn't help

Eelkit and Heronkit are now Mistpool's kits, instead of Graysky. I'm willing to keep Graysky and Floatshimmer as mates, but that (and kits) isn't happening ANYTIME soon. No thank you.

Eelkit has no physical description given other than his pattern, so I came up with his own for him. Like his sister, I imagine him very sleek and skinny as a grown cat because of his name. We'll see what I end up going with when he gets there, though.

For his pattern, Eelkit is described as a black tom. He has no canon eye color, so I gave him his dad's dark orangey-amber eyes. Which made him end up looking a lot like Nightheart by accident, I imagine Frostdawn doesn't mind having a nephew who looks so much like her dear friend though. ^^
