The Final WillowClan Post


First of all, I want to thank all of you for sticking it out this far. I started this RP about 3 years ago and to be honest I didn’t think it would last this long. I know there were times where I didn’t post for a month at a time and I really appreciate everyone that stayed active through those times. I also really appreciate the people who played more than one character. The dynamic of the Clan was getting good and I liked the relationships that were forming. I’m sorry it’s ending here.
Now, onto the plans I had for the plot and the deeper aspects of the characters. Felix, Otis and Heather are all ex-Clan cats, and those aren’t their real names either. “Felix” is an ex-WindClan cat named Ravenclaw, “Heather” is an ex-ShadlowClan cat named Ashwing, and “Otis” is an ex-ThunderClan cat named Oakfire. They stuck together after the 5 Clans by the lake disbanded because they were all friends across borders, with Ravenclaw obviously having affections for Ashwing. Ravenclaw was exiled from WindClan not long before the Clans fell for attempting to overthrow their leader. Because of this, and the systemic problems he saw in the Warrior Code and the Clan lifestyle, he is brimming with hatred for the entire concept of Clan life, and made an internal vow to destroy any trace of Clan life he came across. He convinced Ashwing and Oakfire to stay with him in their hunt for a new home partially due to their prior friendship, and partially due to his natural manipulative abilities. Oakfire and Ashwing DID at one point have genuine feelings of friendship towards Ravenclaw, but eventually his personality rotted away from the inside out and his urge to destroy the Clan’s way of life replaced it. Oakfire’s friendly and timid nature, and Ashwing’s passive manipulation of Ravenclaw’s feelings for her to remain secure were their only reasons for staying with him.
The three strangers were going to ask Fernstar to stay with the Clan, which was a request Fernstar would initially deny because of the bad timing of them asking during a harsh leafbare. She would tell them to return when newleaf began, and was going to let them join the Clan but only if they agreed to train as apprentices. Obviously, this would raise a lot of tension in the ex-Clan cats and make it WAY harder for them to conceal their identities. They would obviously have to PRETEND to be bad at things like hunting and fighting and border patrolling which would not have been easy considering they had moons and moons of Warrior training.
Ashwing once had a litter of kits that didn’t survive, and because of that, she has a strong desire to either have more kits or simply act as a Mother figure to someone else’s kit. I had planned for her to get close to Frogkit and eventually she was going to abandon Ravenclaw’s cause to destroy Clan life and stay with WillowClan long term. Oakfire, unfortunately, was a young Warrior when the Clans fell apart, not more than 6 moons past his ceremony. His disappointment about the life he wanted as a ThunderClan Warrior caused him to become timid and now struggles with a lack of ambition as he tries to come to grips with his new reality. When Fernstar accepted them into the Clan and they began “training” as apprentices, Oakfire was going to use this as an opportunity to get stronger as a Warrior and his personality and identity was going to re-emerge as he became more and more attached to the Clan. He would get caught between his friendship to Ravenclaw and his new love for WillowClan, eventually choosing WillowClan as well. He would also pursue Duskwing as his mate as this went on.
Ravenclaw was also going to become close with Maplestream, slowly planting seeds of doubt in her mind about Clan life and taking advantage of her anxiety, in hopes she would turn against WillowClan and help him destroy it. However, she would not, and he would then kill her and drag her body into the rapids very early one freezing morning. The rest of the Clan would later figure this out and completely drive him from the territory, Oakfire and Ashwing helping them in this endeavor to prove their loyalty to their new Clan.
Sunfur was going to take charge of training the rest of the Clan to hunt in the trees, working with Spidernose. Maplestream was sort of a minor character, and I was planning to have her mostly stick to herself and reveal more about her inner aspects and her relationship with Fernstar. When Moosepaw received his Warrior name, he would have been known as Moosewhisker. Again, I apologize the RP is ending here and I had a lot of fun writing with you guys while it lasted. I really hope you guys had a good time as well. Warrior cats has and always will have a special place in my heart and is my favorite book series and fandom to this day. I thank all of you for participating in this much loved hobby of mine with me.



Hi everyone. I was really trying to make sure this didn't happen but I don't think it's really my choice anymore. Unfortunately, I think I'm going to have to end the RP. As I'm sure you guys have seen, Hazelrah hasn't logged on for 3 months and with them playing such an important role in the Clan, I don't think trying to continue the story makes sense. I've been holding up on poasting despite having the time to do so to see if Hazelrah was going to post but I think it's been too long now. I'm very sorry to have to end things but I don't think we have enough people to replace the role of deputy. If you guys want, (let me know) I could type out what the story of the plot was GOING to be. I would be happy to share considering it never got to play out actually in the RP. Let me know if you guys are interested in that or not.
@The Elvenqueen Yes I understand. Thank you for participating :) The only reason things have been moving sloe lately is because I'm sort of holding up for @Hazelrah to post, considering their character is one of the most important roles. I'm not sure what's keeping them from posting but I may have to address everyone and ask what the state of the RP is going to be without important characters.
@PrankFox I noticed that actually. I've messaged them a couple times but I'm not sure if they've gotten them. I'm getting worried about the RP has a whole tbh :(

Fernstar’s yowl shook Felix from his sleep, and for a moment he forgot where he was. It wasn’t until he glanced upwards at the scraggly walls of the WillowClan nursery and saw Heather curled next to him that he remembered. Otis was curled against the back wall of the den, not needing the warmth of another cat’s pelt. Sometimes Felix wished his own fur was as thick and long as Otis’, despite how much extra work it would be to groom. He sat up and nudged Heather’s flank with his forepaw. “Heather wake up. We need to see what Fernstar is going to announce.” As she stirred, he padded over to Otis and woke him as well before thrusting his head out the entrance of the nursery. The cat who had been assigned to guard them was sitting on her paws not too far from him and a couple other Warriors were gathered in front of the fallen tree stump in the center of the clearing. The Clan leader seemed strong and well rested, despite the cold and the barren fresh kill pile. Her head was lifted against the blinding sunlight as she surveyed the camp. He could tell that she was waiting for the rest of the Clan to gather before she spoke. He glanced over his shoulder to make sure Heather and Otis followed and carefully slipped out into the clearing, keeping towards the bramble walls of the camp. The cold air startled him and he shrunk towards Heather for warmth.


His ears twitched in amusement as the small kit they had met last night scrambled and scratched her way up onto the Highstump next to Fernstar and squeaked in delight as she looked down on her Clanmates. Just as the Clan leader noticed, a different she-cat leapt to her paws and meowed in a stern tone for the kit to get down. The kit spun in a small circle, her fur spiked against the cold, then hurled herself off the stump before Fernstar could say anything. The she-cat, Felix thought he remembered her saying her name was Spidernose, hooked the kit with her tail and pulled her into her under-belly. The Clan leader met their eyes and dipped her head before meowing “Good morning. How are your wounds doing? Did the herbs from Blackpelt help?” Heather nodded and emphatically replied “Yes, thank you.” before giving her forelimbs a few licks. Otis was quietly surveying the camp, and in the relative silence, Felix wondered where the Clan deputy was. It seemed the tom in second command should be the first out of his nest when his leader called This Clan seems very disheveled. . . Felix thought with a glint in his eye. He concluded it would be best for them to appear respectful and wait for the rest of the Clan to gather. He was anxious to hear what this “leader” had to say.

Sunfur dragged his tired body out of his nest in the Warrior's den, feeling as limp as a piece of fresh kill. He had been roused from his deep sleep by Fernstar's call for a Clan meeting, and as he was about to exit the den he stopped to call out to Stonefall who was not yet out of his nest. You would think the Clan's deputy would have been the first to respond to his leader's call... Sunfur observed. As he padded out into the clearing, the sunlight glinting off the snow was almost blinding, and he averted his eyes to the base of the Highstump. His eyes fell on Spidernose, and the empty space next to her. He lifted his head and gave Fernstar a nod as he sat down in the empty space between Maplestream and Spidernose. He twitched his whiskers and purred quietly, "Morning Spidernose! I had an amazing idea I spoke to Fernstar about yesterday, I'm sure she's going to talk about it. And you'll be able to help!" Teaching the Clan to hunt in the treetops wasn't going to be easy, but he felt that he would be serving his Clan and honoring their ancestors by teaching an ancient hunting method. He would be proud to do it; and he hoped he and Spidernose could grow closer as she taught with him...


The first shaft of sunlight woke Fernstar and the brightness made her shrink back into her nest for a heartbeat. It was dawn, and she knew there would be a lot to discuss with the Clan today. She sat back on her haunches and began to clean her fur, while watching Frogkit and Honeypaw's flanks rise and fall in their sleep; she would wake them soon. She was glad for the warmth they provided through the cold leafbare night. She finished the last few licks of her chest fur before turning to Honeypaw and prodding her side. "Honeypaw, wake up. There's a lot to discuss today." When the apprentice finally began to stir, she said quietly, "Wake Frogkit and come down to the clearing. I'm going to call a Clan meeting." She jumped down from her den and shivered as her paws touched the frost covered ground. She shook out her pelt and tried to ignore the drastic shift in temperature as she padded towards the Highstump. Maplestream was the only cat in the clearing, guarding the nursery entrance. Fernstar decided she would give the first piece of prey the dawn patrol caught to her as a reward for her overnight post. She leapt up to the top of the Highstump rather clumsily, still not quite fully awake. The woods were so quiet this morning, she almost didn't want to yowl her meeting call; but she had to in order to wake her Clanmates. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the Highstump!" She gazed up at the sky, slowly brightening as the morning went on, as she gathered her thoughts and waited for her Clanmates to make their way out of their dens and into the clearing. She had a lot to say.
Hey guys, I'll get an actual interactive post out soon, I wanted to do some further story establishment posts because I though now would be a good time for them. I'll have something else out soon!

After Fernstar disappeared from the Warrior's den, Maplestream stood and stretched her legs. She hadn't realized how badly she had needed that nap until she had sunk into her nest. Now that she had rested, she was suddenly very curious but also anxious about what had unfolded in camp while she had slept. As she emerged from the den, she made her way around the perimeter of camp, taking note of what her Clanmates were doing. Spidernose and Stonefall were near the fresh kill pile sharing tongues, and rather closely at that. They'll be mates eventually, there's no doubting that" she thought to herself assuredly. As she came to the trunk of the large tree that held the leader's den, she noticed a small tuft of Fernstar's calico fur peeking out and she heard the excited chirping she knew had to be Frogkit. She then noticed a few tail lengths away, the she-cat who had shown up with the two toms lounging around one corner of the tree trunk grooming her fur like she had just returned from a hunting patrol. Trying hard not to let her anxiety show, she padded up to the she-cat and meowed in an assertive tone, "Fernstar has given me orders to guard you and your friends in the nursery during the evening. The key word there being in so let's go." She flicked her tail in the direction of the nursery on the other side of camp and the she-cat rose to her paws without a single meow. Maplestream couldn't help but think that had been too easy, but she was probably overreacting, like she did with a lot of things.

As they entered the nursery, the fur along her spine rose slightly as she noticed the two toms were not in the den. Where had they gone? Had no cat seen them leave? Why had they not been stopped? As the strange she-cat settled down towards the back wall of the den, Maplestream asked, "Where are the two toms?" She internally chided herself for not being able to control the quiver that tinged her meow. "Your leader told us we were not allowed to take from the Clan's fresh kill pile, so they went hunting. They haven't been gone that long. I may go out myself around sunhigh, as long as that's okay with you?" Her mind raced thinking about what she should say, then finally she stammered, "When Stonefall organizes the hunting patrol at sunhigh you can join them." Turning towards the exit she decided she would begin her watch now. She wanted to be the first to spot the toms when they returned. As she rooted herself in front of the dense brambles her stomach growled, and she hoped she would have the chance to eat when the dawn hunting patrol returned.
Just out of curiosity, does anyone have any suspicions in regards to the storyline yet? I've been dropping hints here and there but I'm curious to hear people's hypotheses if any! :)
