sooo i redesigned a lot of my childhood warrior cats ocs... some of them I totally forgot about until I raided an old page of mine LOL. I could have kept their original bright colors and designs, but I liked the challenge of finding colorways and cat shapes/breeds that are more plausible than what I depicted in my art from age 9 to 12 :]

the childhood art that I referenced for the redesign is below the cut with associated rambling, mostly in order of the above characters, if you want to know what I drew as a kid haha

This is Cherryfur/Cherryfrost, who I made a Siberian cat. In the redesign, I tried to hint at her old pink very lightly in her stripes. I also made her and heartmelt/roseheart siblings, since they were both once pink :)

This is Bloodmask, who I renamed Russetmask. I figured russet was as close to blood-colored as a real cat would get, lol. I'm not sure how plausible a mask pattern is on a russet cat, but what's warrior cats without a little implausibility? His original character was very edgy, so I tried to translate that outlandishness into a more realistic characteristic - I made him a feral cat turned deputy, which seems like a social no-no.

This is Shreddedstar. She was the leader of "BeastClan", a clan I made which was the home for a Warriors RPG group I hosted. Years later I deleted that group in a fit of embarrassment and now I HATE that I did that, because I had some nice memories from there! In the redesign, I didn't keep the Clan's trait of wearing animal pelts and teeth, because honestly I did not feel like looking for reference and making it make sense. I renamed her Foxstar, after her orange pelt, and I also gave her markings because apparently pure orange cats don't exist. She's an American Bobtail.

This is the oldest digital art I think I have. And Nightscar is the oldest warrior cat OC I have! He was renamed Nightbird because I don't think Foxstar would be so mean as to make his warrior name a comment on his scars. I made him an Oriental Shorthair.

I forgot about these two until I found this art. Idk if they were for anything or if I ever drew them again, but I pulled them out of retirement. I renamed Whispersong (left) to Whisperthroat and Jadestorm (right) to Lichenbark, to reference her former green design. I also changed their whole backstory... idk why but at ~10 years old all my cats had dead parents and were traumatized about it in some way. I think that was my childhood brain's concept of a character idea.

This girl is Heartmelt, who was another BeastClan character! I renamed her Roseheart and made her sisters with Cherryfrost - she's a Siberian like her sister. in the name of realism I sadly got rid of her pinkness and hearts. But, I left her a heart on her chest :]

Last but not least is the unfortunately named "Painfulshadow". I renamed him Slateshade and tried to keep a little indication of his wings in his patterning :) he's a domestic shorthair classic tabby.

Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk! if you read the wall of text, here's a well-deserved cookie!🍪

"Greetings Tumblr, I'm Nightscar, a former general of the Equestrian Air Force during the war. I was a combat medic assigned to the EQN-2112 medical air ship, aka the Syrinx. We were a floating surgical ship with several smaller ships to transport the wounded back to us. We were kind of like the M*A*S*H units the humans use during war time. Feel free to ask me about missions, the war, the different departments, anything you feel like." ~War solves nothing

OC Summary

Woo look i'm finally making an oc intro post on here! This is def non exhaustive and a lot of these guys are old/inactive, but i tried to include the ones that are the most likely to come up xdd Might add more in the future, but this is them for now :]

[continues under the cut]

first of, some og kiddos! most of these originated in rpg/growing species groups on dA but are just unaligned ocs now

Dawn

the only exception to the above statement xd She's my avatar/mascot, essentially! There isn't much else to her honestly. Fun fact about her name origin though: My warriors.. sona, i guess? was called Morgenröte, or Dawnlight when i used her in english contexts, so Dawn's name is a callback to that c: I also considered naming her Morgan as a reference to "Morgen"

Kiran

Used to be a very spunky kid before Trauma TM happened and depression beat her ass. She's been getting better though! Used to be best friends with Lacrima but they've since grown apart. Loves animals and started working on Sam's farm partime.

Lacrima

Smart, self-sufficient, maybe a liiittle fucked up by when she god hellbent on vengeance oops. Lost her closeness with a bunch of her childhood friends during that time. Still a bit all over the place but has found she enjoys administrative work.

Noé

Local theatre kid, and a freelance artist. Which art? That changes with the wind. He has trouble committing to things but that's because so many things in this world are interesting!

Sam

Bit softie with abandonment issues. Loves his family and LARPing and his asshole horse named Sir Samuel II. Works on his farm full time but tries making as much time for his friends and family as possible. Childhood friends with Tumble.

Tumbleweed

A gentle giant who practically lives in the water. Life motto: motto: can't be disappointed by life if you don't expect anything! Works as a life guard and swim instructor. Childhood friends with Sam

Quentin

The swetest potato, but has trouble making friends. A casual but enthusiastic collector with a love for tinkering! Has a workshop together with Flora where he does repair work on mostly on non-mechanical things

Flora

Timid, but inquisitive and creative. Original founder of her now shared workshop which started as a mech repair shop and now entails "anything we can fix!"

Desertblaze

One of my oldest ocs! She's been (re)used a bunch and has been through some shit but always managed to keep finding beauty and love in life. She is. Very near and dear to my heart <3

Nightscar

Tbh i have not used him in a hot minute but i wanted to include him cos he's pretty u.u Also a very old oc; his og name was Schattenjäger (shadowhunter) lol. The first version of him drowned though rip.

Stormyrain

Another fave :] Spunky and full of wanderlust. Her cat version has been inactive for a long time but i love reusing iterations of her cos she is fun and i love her.

Kokosamu

Smug little shit who is equipped with an ego that is way too big for his tiny body. Despite this he is not as bad as he seems! Mostly. He does mean well.

Styrnlona

Big arms, big heart, big hopes. Grew up in a family of fishers and hopes to win lots of money at the coliseum for her family. Turns out that is Really Hard though.

Mikh'a

Is here to avoid responsibilities out of boredom and because adventurers get paid well, right? Well wouldn'tcha know, adventuring is dangerous! oops.

Ulhar

(Ex-)entertainer, professional bullshitter, and apparently a hero now? Ugh. Really just wants to get rid of the worm in her brain, please. Would love to say she doesn't care about anything but unfortunately for her she cares A Lot.

Jamie

The Cooler Sister, bestie of Cove, aspiring marine biologist. If you see me call her Stormy, it's because she is an iteration of Stormyrain xd

NIGHTSCAR - WARRIOR OF PINECLAN

Littermates with FLEABITE, EELJAW (deceased) and FISHTAIL (deceased).

[shadez-art]

Shadeith "Shadez" Nightscar, my night elf demon hunter OC and main in World of Warcraft. I just felt like drawing him again, because I've been more into playing WoW lately than I have been in a long time! I seem to change this character's hairstyle almost every time I draw him! But I really like the way this one looks, so I might keep it for a while. I'm going to have to make up my mind at some point, because I'm currently working on a special project that involves drawing him a lot (and said project is classified, and it will be for a long time, so don't ask!). But if you have any questions about this character specifically, feel free to ask!

"doot doot? what is that supposed to mean? are you trying to emulate something?" ~War Solves Nothing

[ask-tia-and-lulu-34]

Here's some more of my back story for you: I joined the Equestrian Air Force when I was 21 years old, the war hadn't begun yet, but we could all see the writing on the wall and knew it was inevitable. The two sides were Equestria and her allies, versus the Old Alicorn Lands. I was an Alicorn, and didn't agree with the tradition heavy ways of the other Alicorns from my home land. If you are wondering what happened to my wings, towards the end of the war, the Science Corps developed stasis pods, as a way to ensure people stayed alive until peace broke out again. I volunteered to test one out, along with 199 others. During the test, the mega spells fell, hitting the test site. The pods worked as intended, and for 1,000 years I remained safe, however I was woken up periodically, and during one of those times, I saw what was happening. The pods were designed with a feature, if you developed a virus, or other spreadable disease that would threaten life, the pod would emit a gas that would kill the disease. Unfortunately, the doctors behind the gas made a mistake, and I saw as the other people were liquified by the gas. The pods, as I recently learned, malfunctioned with fatal results. I managed to escape my pod before I died, but, my wings dissolved."

"I do not know if any others survived these past 1,000 yeas, but I can hope that I am not the last survivor." ~War Solves Nothing

You ever just humanize your warrior cats OCs from when you were like 10?

Yes I was an edgy child

[layalu]

posting the wips got me motivated to finally finish these lol so have some more artfight refs!

[layalu]

For the oc asks, 24, 25, 29 and 32? (If you want)

[ask game]

Thank you for the ask!! <3

24. If you could meet one OC of yours, who would it be and why?

Ooof good question..... I wanna say Flora? She's a kid still and I haven't done anything with her in a hot minute but she's a tinkerer at heart and i feel like we'd vibe really well when she's older

25. The OC that resembles you the most (same hobby, height, shared like/dislike for something etc?)

Oh man i don't think I can say that there's any one OC who resembles me the most, cos they all do in some way or another, be it personality traits or habits or (dis)likes. Flora has my interest in tinkering and crafting, Stormy has a similar brand of self-image as me, Liam's got my sentimentality, Ari my love for citrus fruits, Nightscar and June my uneasiness around water, Leyla (and a couple other OCs too lol) my big sis/chaperone type tendencies, etc etc..... Appearance wise tho June's the one whose body type is the closest to my own

29. Which one of your OCs would go investigate an abandoned house at night without telling anyone they’re going?

Quentin. Everyone else would either not go or go with somebody else or at least tell somebody about it lol. Quentin though would just go because he's curious about it, he's not easily spooked and and often goes investigating by himself anyways.

32. Which one of your OCs would be the most suitable horror game protagonist and why?

Most suitable? Lacrima, Lilian or Kala. Lacrima and Lilian are probably the only ones of my kiddos who'd have the skillset and sheer determination to actually yknow. Not Die as a horror protag lmao. Both are well equipped to handle high stress situations, know how to survive on their own and also both intense (and unhinged) enough to deal with whatever craziness the setting throws at them. Kala would 100% be able to survive too because she is one tough mfer who simply refuses to die. When we're talking most entertaining horror game protags that would be June and Stormy, it'd be much more of a Buzzfeed Unsolved vibe lol. Tho their method of survival would be a combo of dumb luck and crafty improv
