curlfeather is such a neat character like yeah she ended up using her daughter for her plot to become leader but in the end she sacrificed herself for her daughter even though she wanted to be leader and she was ready to do shady shit behind everyone's backs to get her way but. but. a mother's love wins over all and she told her daughter to trust no cat. not even her, her mother. Crazy bro literally crazy. i know frostpaw is for sure going to struggle with a lot but i wonder if she will ever think about curlfeather and be like Yeah she kinda fucked riverclan up but her last act in life was to save me..damn..
I read some headcanons/aus of Curlfeather being Reedwhisker’s daughter and I love the idea so much; the idea of Frostpaw struggling under their legacy and intergenerational trauma, Curlfeather killed by the dogs she set on her own father.
I had fun with the designs for this! Particularly Misty/Reed’s, which I decided not to reference. Experimented with lineart, I think I like the thicker/smooth look for this :)
