1801 -Historic-Human AU -TPB
notes + rough ideas below. tw for 'real world' racism and sexism.
Characters
-> Bluestar (Blanche) Is the 'head' of the house of Thunder, I think this just makes her a lady/lord of sorts, she controls the finances, the hiring decisions, and any military planning or involvement goes through her first. She also probably reports to the monarchy.
She dies in the conflict/war. Usually, the title and responsibilities would fall to her children but she doesn't have any, so she makes the servant, Fineen her protege and leaves him with all the money management when she dies. Out of everyone she probably actually is a duchess or archduchess or something fancy like that, but for the sake of the AU, that's not too important. She's Black-French
-> Tigerclaw (Tristain) is only well known and wealthy through his military prowess, he's the one that fanned the conflict with Bloodclan and eventually dies in battle. He is racist and classist, a reflection of his own insecurities since he grew up poor and is probably part minority.
He is married to Golden (Gwendolyn.) He does cheat on her but he still stays married to her, meaning after his death, his wealth and title goes back to her and his legitimate children*
-> Raven, not pictured. he just leaves. around this time if you desert your post and are found, you could be executed. So he stays away. only Fireheart (Fineen) and Grayson know he's alive and well. probably living just at the edge of the bloodclan border at a farm.
-> Sandstorm(Sandra) She knows how to fight, but legally isn't allowed to join the war/conflict. She's of Greek descent and unlike Dustin, has no opinion of servants. She's allowed to hunt for the cooks of the house so she hunts and explores the wild.
-> Dustpelt (Dustin) He is canonically the brother of Raven. nothing to really say, he's the same in canon.
-> Grayson. pretty much the only other servant/lower-class person in the house of Thunder. he grew up in the house of Thunder, and bonds with Fineen. same as canon, except he does not have children with Silver (Silvia) They just have a little romp that causes even more drama. He is of Pacific-Islander descent.
-> Fireheart (Fineen). Blanche is the one who hired him, before joining the house as a lowly servant and eventual military guy, he lived probably, in bloodclan with his family. He is a foreigner, poor, loser with no skills but Blanche still ends up making him the heir before she dies. He is Indian-Irish descent.
Plot Points
-> Bluestar/Blanche still has children with Oakheart/Oakley. the children are born out of wedlock and as a cover-up she and Thrushpelt probably get engaged while she's pregnant. She fakes the death of her children, however, and they end up with their father in the House of River. After this, she breaks the engagement with Thrushpelt.
-> *Even if Tiger divorced Golden before his death, the house of Thunder would've still helped Golden financially, its just she wouldn't be living...rich.
-> I'm thinking of having the houses kinda like a land with other little houses on it, like an estate? Blanche would've just been the glorified landlord.

flarepelt - named for his bushy fur, a mark of pride for him as it makes him look more like his father raggedstar. he wouldn't know until much later that his birth mother would name him for the warmth in her she felt seeing him alive at her belly, much like his brother brokentail being named for the following heartbreak of knowing they would never know how much she cared for them.
inspired by @sootslash's post on reimagining characters with other parents, this was the first thing that came to mind

Ok ok ok warrior cats !! :3
This starts off a cute little habit of Littlebranch giving Poppyfire a different flower/plant every time they see each other cause cause 😭 I want them to have the slowest of burns please PLEASE-
He starts off by just giving her different colored poppies, but she brings up how sad she will be when poppy season ends. So when it does end, and she goes out to see him, he has a different type of plant for her, and he explains that he’ll continue to give her flowers that correspond with the season if she wants (she wants that VERY MUCH) :3
They make me SICK

Why you gotta be so rude?
I'm gonna marry her anyway ~ 💕
This was fun to draw! Love da expressions and chaos in a single picture, Shadowsight and Sunbeam are pda, Lightleap is loosing her shit. Blazefire has mixed feelings, Berryheart is also loosing her shit, her husband Sparrowtail is try to calm her down while Gullswoop is invested! And poor tiger & dove don't know what to do, and at last, Spireclaw is cheering for his sister with his supportive girlfriend fringewhisker.

why does the other clans have elders but windclan doesnt
They do but, they have such high respect for their elders over any other clan that, they have dropped the elder role and made them part of the high council
The high council helps the leader make decisions involving the clan
like if they should go into war or not, name a cat their warrior name
weather to take in a loner, rouge or another clan cat
Later on I'll make a post about the clan cultures
