Nightheart or redwillow?

dude who made a buncha bad decisions that came to bite him in the ass (or the throat, in blackstar’s case). no major thoughts on him aside from the general fondness i have for the dark forest trainees. poor guy met two untimely ends :(

Flametail was pulled out of the water by Jayfeather and Redwillow. Scene from my au/rework of the Great Battle timeframe, because OotS is where WC writing heavily tanked. UNLIKE in the books, the other cats who were there on the ice don't just stand around watching / ceasing to exist while Jayfeather tries to rescue Flametail alone. Redwillow actually helps and stays to sandwich Flametail between him and Jayfeather so he won't lose as much body heat while they walk him back to Shadowclan camp. The others ran ahead to tell Littlecloud and Blackstar and also fetch whatever Jayfeather instructed them to. Art done for me by harriers on DA - https://www.deviantart.com/harriers

i really thought that they were going to have this arc focus on df redemption because of how lame and unsatisfactory the answer of "oh sorry we cant let them in because uhmm they did something mean generations ago or something and theyre already dead so it doesnt matter" was (esp after all the build up of seeing the df residents show that they CAN be good and help the protags and whatnot) and i really wish they would've gone that route. tbh i think it would've been cool if one of the perspectives was from a starclan/df cat it would've been a breath of fresh air. but instead we got flamepaw 😒

i know exactly what you mean but my mind immediately went that there's a correlation between nightheart existing and the df cats being told they can't go to starclan

Motivations of Dark Forest Trainees -- Planning

So I'm going to flesh out the Dark Forest and its inhabitants. First I need to compile a list of everyone who trained in the Dark Forest, and a brief summary of their motivations.

So if you guys have any input, weigh in!

First though-- Removals and Openings

Birchfall is not going to train in the Dark Forest. He's being changed to Dovewing's mentor, and a source of comfort to her as opposed to her father Lionblaze. He has too much going on.

Larkwing is also being removed. Sedgewhisker was very young and there’s no need for her to have kittens when she’s barely 2 years old, let alone have that kitten in Dark Forest training.

There were 18 DF trainees without Birch. 4 River, 3 Shadow, 4 Thunder, and 7 Wind. I'm willing to bump that number up to an even 20. Maybe even more if there’s some enticing ideas.

So far there are 18 trainees on this list; that makes 2 open spaces.

The Trainees so Far

WindClan

Breezepelt, naturally Motivation: Neglected and abused by father, mother attempted to assassinate Onewhisker. Sees The Three as a symbol of Crowfeather hating him and being heirs of destiny. Changes: Apprentice is now Furzepaw, not Boulderpaw, and he encouraged Furze to train in the Dark Forest with him. Kills Firestar in early OotS.

Harespring Motivation: The pressure StarClan put on his brother Kestrelflight made him think that it can't be all that good... so maybe the Dark Forest isn't as bad? Plus, he would like to meet Mudclaw, and was an old friend of Breezepelt. Changes: Apprentice is now Boulderpaw, who he never got involved in his Dark Forest training.

Furzepelt Motivation: Breezepelt encouraged her to join him. Changes: Grows very close to Antpelt and Sunstrike, becomes mates with Sunstrike (sapphic)

Antpelt Motivation: Old friend of Breezepelt Changes: It was not known that Ivypool killing him as a spirit would kill him forever. It came as a shock to everyone-- and it's how the DF cats learned that spirits can be killed by the living. Spirits can't kill other spirits. This situation makes Ivypool blame herself for his death.

Sunstrike Motivation: Dissatisfaction with Onestar; possibly thinks Breezepelt would be a better leader because her parents were hurt in a battle that was lost. Changes: Surviving instead of Whiskernose (because i like her more), disabled after the battle.

Whiskernose Motivation: Xenophobia, ambition. Feels Onestar is weak like Tallstar before him. Changes: Dying instead of Sunstrike (because i like him less), helps to start the fire in ThunderClan to make an opening for Thornclaw and Breezepelt to kill Firestar. One of the older trainees.

RiverClan

Minnowtail Motivation: HalfClan relationship with Mousewhisker, gets recruited by Cloudberry and Ryewhisker. Changes: Going to lean in more to Minnow and Mouse having a secret relationship. Mouse eventually moves to RiverClan in TBC or ASC.

Icewing Motivation: Curiosity, influence from mother Skyheart. Knew that Mistystar lied about how Leopardstar died in BB!TNP, but only found out this way that she was murdered. Gets hooked after this, realizing that the training could give her power. If Mistystar murdered Leopardstar... what does that say about her fitness to rule? Might want to become deputy. Changes: Needs to be clearer that she's Beetlewhisker's mother. I would like her to do more, generally. Mate, Mintflower, was a Tribe cat. Sedgecreek, current deputy, narrowly survives a dangerous situation and decides to retire; that was definitely part of a DF plot.

Beetlewhisker Motivation: Supporting Icewing Changes: Brokenstar is no longer part of the Dark Forest, so someone else will kill him. Probably Thistleclaw.

Lizardtail Motivation: Bullied by Mossyfoot (apprentice of Minnowtail) and Troutstream. Changes: Becomes Hallowflight as an honor title after swimming across the lake and running another mile to get help, betraying the Dark Forest.

ShadowClan (I actually like that it's the least represented Clan for once so I'm not looking to add any cats here)

Applefur Motivation: Jealousy of Marshwing, desire to be a ferocious warrior. Changes: Will probably kill Brackenfur. Generally beefed up.

Redwillow Motivation: ??? (Seems aggressive; true believer?) Changes: Change mentor to Applefur?

Ratscar Motivation: ??? (I'm thinking dissatisfaction with Blackstar's rule) Changes: Ratscar raised his sister Snowbird after their parents died. An adult warrior during the WindClan Massacre, he's the oldest trainee and this should be noted.

ThunderClan

Ivypool Motivation: Pushed there by Lionblaze. Eventually has her jealousy and alienation from Dovewing exploited. Changes: Daughter of Lionblaze now. Waking-world mentor is Brightheart. Dark Forest mentor is Hawkfrost, who has a redemption arc.

Blossomfall Motivation: Jealousy over Briarlight, dissatisfaction with Bramblestar Changes: Graystripe needs to be more involved as one of the reasons Blossomfall is training here.

Thornclaw Motivation: Secret supporter of Thistle Law. Wants power. Changes: Deputy of ThunderClan under Bramblestar. Was in on the plot to kill Firestar and was probably aware of the plot to eliminate Brackenfur. Dies in the Great Battle and goes to the Dark Forest in death.

Mousewhisker Motivation: Wants to be stronger... but also likes the chance to hang out with Minnowtail. Changes: His waking world mentor is Iceheart, the cat who was once Scourge.

Spiderleg Motivation: Training with his mentor, Thornclaw. A Thistle Law supporter who regrets his time with Daisy and seeking to make ThunderClan strong again. Changes: He comes extremely close to killing his son Toadstep in the Great Battle, and regrets his time here deeply.

These cats need to have perceived grievances with their Clans, which Tigerstar and his group are trying to help them achieve. The Dark Forest will actually be getting a plan in this redux; they are putting their trainees in power by trying to kill their rivals and Clan leadership.

The Dark Forest spirits will also be getting their own motivations, which Tigerstar had to consider while he was coalition building.

Leaders Lives: Blackstar

Picked a random Leader for the first edition of this. Going to detail who gives Blackstar his 9 Lives, how he loses them and in what order.

Blackstar is actually a unique case. He does NOT get 9 lives all at once. Starclan doesn't trust him enough, and makes him work for them, which he does.

His first life gained is from Stonefur, his victim. Stonefur gives him a life for Hard Work. Good luck, Blackstar. You're going to need it. Blackstar is warned that if he does not work hard, he and his beloved Clan will fall. He gets the life right after The Darkest Hour.

His second is from Blizzardwing, his angry, regret filled father. He doesn't want to be connected with the cat who made him so miserable, but he knows he has to take it, for Shadowclan. The life is Acceptance. He gets it before The New Prophecy, after Firestar's Quest.

The third is a life for Perspective, from Badgerfang. He also gets this life at the same time as Blizzardwing's. These two lives will be a Bonus Scene for Midnight.

The fourth life is from Hollyflower. While Blackstar has a complicated relationship with his mother, and wishes more than anything that she and Blizzardwing had just walked away from each other, he was always closer with his mother. The life she gives is for Compassion. He gains it during Moonrise, right after having lost one of the few lives he has from a poisoned frog. (Sorry for mixing up you and Fernshade!)

Lives five and six are from Swampkit and Yellowfang. Swampkit gives him a life for Judgement, and Yellowfang gives him a life for Trust. He gains the lives at the beginning of Sunset, after seeing Onestar get his 9 from the Moonpool. During the end of Sunset though, he will lose another.

After the events of Leafpool's Wish but before The Sight, he gets 2 more! The first being his old buddy... Brokenkit. When Brokentail died, his soul split in 2. Being the living embodiment of a curse meant that his life was changed before his great grandmother had breath in her lungs. Starclan, as an apology for the torment that Brokenstar's mind gave him due to his cursed birth, allow a different version, the "What could have been" Brokenkit, who would have been named Flamekit after Silverflame and died at 5 moons old. Brokenkit/Flamekit gives Blackstar his seventh life, for Unity.

His eight life after the kitten bounds away to his mom is from Nightstar, who gives him a life for Loyalty. These 2 lives, Unity and Loyalty, would seem a bit at odds to a younger Blackstar. But with his age has come genuine wisdom, he knows he needs to both stand with the other Clans, and do what is best for his cats.

The final life does not come from Shadowstar, but rather, from Sun Shadow. The life is for something that Sun Shadow claims Blackstar "doesn't need any help with". It's Leadership. He gains this life during the end of The Sight, with Jaypaw watching from afar.

As for order lost and how:

Blizzardwing - Acceptance - Hit by a tree branch just days before the events of Midnight.

Badgerfang - Perspective - Poisoned frog in Moonrise, which makes him go to the Moonstone for guidance and gets him a life from Fernshade.

Hollyflower - Compassion - The Fox Trap during Sunset takes this life, soon after he got it too. This is the other half of the Blood Will Spill Blood Prophecy, with Tigerstar's sister Mistfang getting him in a trap beside Firestar.

Yellowfang - Trust - A kidney infection that would not respond to any treatments during Dark River.

Brokenkit/Flamekit - Unity - Infected wounds from The Eclipse Battle. Unity was truly shown here, dying from rightfully defending Thunderclan.

Nightstar - Loyalty - Smoke inhalation during The Fire in Long Shadows. He dies saving his former mate, Tallpoppy.

Swampkit - Judgement - Dehydration during The Fourth Apprentice. This one was brutal.

Sun Shadow - Leadership - Snake bite during Sign of The Moon, not venomous, but it did get an artery. He gets a sick-ass scar from it on his neck though!

Stonefur - Hard Work - In a twist of fate, Blackstar is murdered by Redwillow during the Great Battle.
