How to Make a BETTER Warrior Cats OC and Story

- My old "How to Make a Good Warrior Cats OC" video is over a year old and I don't agree with most of the things I said in that video. It's definitely about time that I gave you all a more reasonable and useful tutorial.
Some of the art in this video was provided by Missy Dakota!

Prefixes are given to newborns. Meaning they are not about the cats personality, they are either about the pelt, what the parents ate for breakfast or the parents emotions at the time.
True, but it's also a story. Meaning that names can hold symbolism. I'm sure that in the Warriors universe, there can be names that are both symbolic and would make sense for a cat to be named that. Like this:
1) Prefix is given to newborn that represents fur color
2) Cat grows up and becomes a warrior, medicine cat, etc. By this point he has had some character development and known traits.
3) The suffix (the second half of his name) could modify it so that it becomes a symbolic name, and not just a physical description.
Example: Fireheart from the original series. As Firepaw, his name just represents his appearance. but as Fireheart, it could mean that he is brave, or strong, or determined, or spirited.
Note: You may have to re-design your cat's appearance if you have a really great name but it doesn't quite fit.
It can also be traits the parent hopes the kit develops, like Braveheart.
“Mom, why am I named ARandomBird’sWingKit?”
“...sit down, I have a story”
"What should we name this kit?"
"... well, i had a mouse earlier today..."
While that is true, I believe some of the mums waited to name their kits about a half-moon or so after they were born. But honestly, with super/spirit cats cannon, I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that the mums just have a second sense that just knows how the kits will be/turn out xD
3:30 oh my lord i actually thought for a second the two toms left dovewing and went out with eachother instead
Cryydie ღ god if only that was the way it was
Wow a trashy white girl 😂😂
tiirglley Oooooooooooohh harsh XD
WillowRustle64 hahaha
Oof
Love triangle?
Wait
so
Tigerheart loves...
...
*BUMBLESTRIPE*
*Gasp*
ship tbh
Lol that's actually really funny
"Yeah, heck Dovewing, let's run away and be gay together, Bumblestripe."
That way Bumblestripe can be a shy pushover and Tigerheart can finally boss someone a round
This is what they need to teach us in art class/school

No but fr
This is the advice I keep in mind for my Art School assignments
Frr
When I first wrote Pineclaw, she was just a basic villain character. But when I asked why she would kill two cats, I found myself really liking her. And now she's a main P.O.V character in my story. Oops.
(P.S: It would be cool for you to do a series where you take OCs and tell the creators how to make them better. It would be similar to OC battle, but it would be more focused on critisim rather than the battle aspect.)
ilikecats I'm trying to make an OC got any tips (Pineclaw was amazing)
ilikecats oof
i'm trying to work on crimsonthorn's story and i got attached to her too lmao
Yes he should do that idea lol
ilikecats yeah XD I need to get help with my new OC, Sparrow wing.
XD! I was writing Nighttail's background and making her an acctual character! She grew on me as well and I realised how much she's like me. She's grown on me alot.
I decided to change my oc's name from Sunfoot, to Suncloud.
Suncloud has always had a burning desire to be a medicine cat, even when he was a kit, but has to overcome many obstacles, or 'clouds' in his way. His sister, (who I am working on a name for) had teased Suncloud for not being a warrior, because she wanted to be the medicine cat. She wanted to make Suncloud as jealous of her, as she was of him. Suncloud's mentor, eventually became old, but refused to retire. (I need to make a name for the mentor too) She was treating a scratch on some cat's ear, Suncloud was beside her helping. The mentor ran out of cobwebs, but instead of asking Suncloud to get some more, she ran for them, and tripped over Suncloud. Her head banged into a wall, knocking down a bunch of herbs from the storage. She had died, too old and weak to recover. Suncloud healed the patient, thinking about his mentor's death the whole time. He blamed himself for her death. News spread around the Clan, and Suncloud's sister wanted to talk to him. Instead of saying something mean, she told Suncloud the truth behind why she had always bullied him. Suncloud hesitated, but forgave his sister. It took many moons of grieving, but eventually, Suncloud had accepted his mentor's death, and lived the rest of his life as his Clan's medicine cat, eventually taking on an apprentice of his own. That will be in the backstory of Suncloud's apprentice, when I make it.
Later, I decided to make Suncloud's sister named Blackshine. I chose Blackshine, because she seems mean on the outside, but within, she is a good cat, with hopes and dreams like everyone else.
I decided on the name Deerfall for Suncloud's mentor, because Deerfall keeps going, even if it is a mouse-brained choice, until her inevitable fall.
I chose Sunfoot at first, because of his yellow paws, but this video pushed me into changing his from a physical meaning, to more of a personality meaning. In my story, I tried to make Suncloud represent the sun, and his obstacles represent clouds. Our real sun has clouds that try to block it, and make sure it doesn't shine, but the sun pushes through the clouds, like Suncloud pushes through his obstacles. I hope you enjoyed reading all this, and please reply some constructive criticism if you would like.
great names! I love how you made their names represent there personally and not their pelt colors!
:) I want to make the backstory more detailed, but it took around an hour to come up with all that XD
Avrap AJ I accidentally read “SunCloud” as “SoundCloud”, whoops
If it seems better than yours, figure out what about your story you aren't satisfied with. Looking at other stories that you think are better might give you ideas on how to improve. "Who cares" isn't necessarily the right question. More like "Should I care?" No, you shouldn't (you shouldn't feel upset about the story seeming better), but yes you should (you should let it inspire you to improve your story).
Really good! I'd give some more detail on why Blackshine is cold and mean to others aside from her brother though :)
When I first wrote Terrainstep & Lizardscale, I tried way too hard to make my backstories emotional & memorable, added up to 3 deaths per character (Lizardscale had, like, 5), & tried to stick to a realistic style. After watching this video, I took the time to rethink my characters & my new character Silverspots using the advice you gave me, & it REALLY paid off in the end.
Lizardscale (original backstory): Betrayed by her douchebag father, 'motivated' to become a queen after her mother's death, & fell in love with the douchebag leader's son only to have him die 'tragically' & leave behind his little brother.
Lizardscale (new backstory): Had an absent father most of her life, motivated to become a queen after growing up with a shortage of queens, & risked her life protecting the douchebag leader's son & comforted his pregnant mate after he died, as well as helping out with her kits.
Terrainstep (original backstory): Grew up with an insane mother, ended up killing her to 'save the clans', & became a BloodClan member & left to fall in love a tom we have no idea about.
Terrainstep (new backstory): Grew up with a neglectful mother, almost died saving her brother from a monster, & bravely rejected the temptation of joining a gang of vicious rogues to become deputy.
Silverspots: Grew up with a warrior code oriented brother, risked his life everyday just so he could be with the medicine cat apprentice he loved, & learned that blocking romance during medicine cat training is important after the death of his love's mentor.
What do you think? Have I improved?
Laffodil, GREAT new backstories!
Thank you! I always appreciate criticism.
I liked it but the “shortage” seemed a bit copy cat like and unrealistic maybe I think the first reason was better her mother died (basically take old mother thing and add the new father thing)and her fathers absence made Lisardscale motivated to become a great parent and a caring individual to all others
Thanks for the criticism :) I'll try to add something like that in her latest backstory.
I like it.
My favorite OC:
Snowfall was the first FrostClan medicine cat, she had her family split up after the clan were created from what remained of BloodClan. She is young and naive and has no clue what she's doing. One night, she recieves the prophecy "one of the two who will come into the world today will have the power to destroy the clans." Her sister wakes her up to tell her that Brindle, a queen, is kitting. she has two kits, and Snowfall quickly realizes that one of them will destroy the clans. A few moons of panic pass, until the two adventurous kits try to go out hunting to help the clans in the coming leaf-bare. Snowfall finds them, but too late one has been taken by a hawk. The heartbroken queen returns to camp with her other kit, Lionkit. Snowfall uses some bad tasting leaves to trick him and his mother into thinking he has weak lungs and can't become a warrior. Lionpaw is her apprentice when he meets Owlpaw. She belongs to StoneClan as a medicine cat. they uncover the truth about Snowfall and plot to run away together. Brindle hides that she has green-cough so that she can die to join her dead son. Lionpaw runs away after his mother's death. Snowfall wants to go after them but a handsome rogue name Scamper shows up. she stays in camp with him, and he joins the clan. Lionpaw comes back after Owlpaw is injured. He and Snowfall go to StoneClan to ask for some herbs, but Owlpaw's mentor has died. she starts coming every few days to FrostClan for training. Scamper flirts with Snowfall. then her sister reveals that she is having kits with him. Snowfall acuses him of betraying the clan (which wasn't true) and he attempts to kill her so she won't tell anyone. Lionpaw comes through and saves her, killing Scamper. Snowfall tells him the truth and offers to let him be a warrior. He declines the ofeer and chooses him clan over his relationship with Owlpaw. He becomes Lionleaf. Snowfall finds out that Lionpaw's dead brother was giding Scamper from a dream. he was the one who could destroy the clans. Her sisters kits, and they all become strong warriors.
wow, such a great plot twist!
When you said Sandyfern, I thiught you said Sandyfur, and I'm like, "I have a cat that I pretend to play as named Sandyfur." Tbh, I roleplay Warriors in my mind.
Warrior Cats Forever Same
XD
Warrior Cats Forever Literally if I'm at school my thoughts are just "She trotted over to her friends, (name)paw and (name)paw. (name)paw has been mooning over (name)paw recently, she wondered if it would last"
Oh nice. I place myself in the books somewhere, and roleplay from there.
Same!
Some of my favorite names I've made so far have been Owlsight, Sandstep, Nightrose, and Spidershade. Owlsight was originally named Crowkit because his parents thought of him as Crowfood. He was then adopted by Thunderclan and was renamed Owlkit due to his wide eyes that resemble owl's eyes. Sight refers to his amazing observation skills. Sandstep was named for his sand colored fur, but the step suffix comes from his awful limp he developed after a training incident. He wears this with pride. Nightrose was named technically for being born at night, and rose was because of her beauty, but it also has a deeper meaning, as night can hold many secrets, and roses have thorns. Spidershade was named for his skinny legs which his mom thought looked like spider legs. Shade comes from his habit of hiding in the shadows. His name is also a meaningful name as spiders weave intricate webs to hunt and, well, his habit of sneaking around isn't very promising.
Thanks for the OC help! I’m really needing it lol
Me too
My OC, Graypine/star, was born in ShadowClan. Her camp was attacked by wolves when she was 3 moons old, and she managed to drag herself over to WindClan. They took her in, and eventually Graypine became leader. Most of my OCs have just the right amount of realistic and unrealistic.
My character is Aquatail and, firstly, she was just irrelevant to me. My friend asked me to make a character to his Power of Three rip-off and I was like "sure", so I made her for this reason. I ended up putting too much thought to her personality, she was first just a basic tsundere but then became a girl who "is overly confident and overprotective towards those she cares about but, for caring so much about them and their hapiness, she ends up being pushy and coming off as selfish. She has discipline issues and hates authority, but those who don't know her see her as a control freak". I made a P.O.V for her and, as I added more depth and tried to make her more consistent (thinking what she would thing and doing what she would do according to personality) and she ended up questioning Clan values. The forbidden romance related to her internal conflicts (as she asked herself why was she prohibited to love who she wanted to love) and she ended up hating the Clans and running away with her mate and other cats to make their own Clan. It started as a rip-off of Heathertail which I planned to put no effort into, but in the end I had to research so much to build her opinions and ideas. I researched American, French and Russian Revolutions to see what motivated each one and which one was more like the situation she was living in, what has gone right and wrong in each, which values each one of the revolutionaries defended... in the end I turned from socialist to libertarian just by writting a Warriors fanfiction
Wowza, someone did their homework! XD
But seriously, I love your character and her personality, plus what you've got about her questioning her loyalty and running away to start her own clan would be a very interesting story to read. Keep writing, for you've got talent! :3
My personal favorite OC backstory from my OC Lilybloom.
She was born blind alongside her brothers Ivykit and Dragonflykit to a (neglectful) ThunderClan mother and RiverClan father. When she was two moons old her and her brothers went to the RiverClan boarder with their mom to talk to their dad and in a horrible accident, Dragonflykit ends up drowning in the river. Their father sees this as a sign that they shouldn’t have been born and should never be allowed in RiverClan, and their mother blames the accident on Lilykit and spends all her energy on Ivykit, while also heavily lobbying to the leader that they should send Lilykit to the elders den instead of letter her train, because she’s blind and therefore useless and can do no right.
This sort of works, and when Ivypaw gets apprenticed, Lilykit stays in the nursery. Lilykit hates this, and begins training in the dark forest just so she can get any training at all, and end up getting close to a dark forest cat, Snaketail (his backstory’s too long to put here, but he has a soft spot for kits, especially kits with drowned siblings and neglectful parents) and gets really good at fighting.
When she’s around ten moons old, she wakes up in the middle of the night to find the two new additions to the nursery (Applekit and Rosekit) missing and follows their scent to a clearing outside of camp, just in time to find them getting attacked by a dog. Applekit ends up losing his leg and Lilykit ends up losing her tail and being heavily scarred, but all three of them make it back to camp before Lilykit passes out from blood loss.
Whiles she’s on the brink of death, a StarClan cat visits her, and tells her she’s part of a prophecy. Four cats with the power of the elements in their paw, shall save or destroy all the forest. And she’s the cat of water. She, predictively, takes that news very badly, remembering Dragonflykit and beginning to wonder if she really could have saved him and if his death is really her fault. But once she’s strong enough to leave the medicine den, she finds herself drawn to the water. Often sneaking out at night to see the river, and test her powers, and it works.
After it’s decided that she can be apprenticed, Lilypaw starts getting close to the three other prophecy cat. Sunpaw, the cat of fire who is a ThunderClan apprentice alongside her. Briarrose, the cat of earth who is a WindClan warrior. And Pinepaw, the cat of air, who’s the ShadowClan medicine cat apprentice. The four of them meet up at the boarders every night to train and talk and practice their abilities, keeping it secret from their clans. After several moons, Sunpaw convinces Lilypaw to leave the dark forest since has no need for it anymore.
Ivytail, who’s been named a warrior by now, is suspicious of his sister. Wondering what a blind, wrongly apprenticed kit is doing at the boarders all the time, and when he discovers the prophecy, discovers that his sister is special in a way he’ll never be, he throws a tantrum. He tells the leader immediately, who then tells the other clans, and soon everyone knows of the prophecy, and more importantly, about the four cats “freak powers” leaving Lilypaw even more isolated then before. At least that’s what Ivytail and her mother think. In reality, Lilypaw has a support system for the first time in her life, and while she might have been able to handle her own clan ostracizing her, the sight of her friends being hurt by things out of their control make her snap. The kits she saved, Applepaw and Rosepaw, propose the idea for leaving the territory and clans altogether.
After much consideration, Lilypaw, Sunpaw, Pinepaw, Briarrose, Briarrose’s mate Featherheart and their two kits(Heatherkit and Oakkit), and Rosepaw and Applepaw all decide to run away from the clans and start their own. They have the power, the numbers, a nearly fully trained medicine cat, and no reason to stay.
Lilypaw and the other decide their own names the night they leave. Lilypaw becomes Lilybloom. Sunpaw becomes Sunflight. Pinepaw becomes Pineheart. Rosepaw becomes Rosewing. And Applepaw becomes Appleclaw. Together, they all run away and create their own clan, MoonClan, where no one would ever fall through the cracks and be ostracized for things outside their control, disability, place in a prophecy, anything.
They quickly grow in numbers, taking in rouges and loners, and eventually, after countless seasons, the old leader of ThunderClan, MouseStar, the same can the refused to apprentice Lilybloom as a kit, has to come and beg for their help. The territories have been overrun by diseases, natural disasters, famine and now the dwindling clans realize what horrible mistakes they made to ostracize them. But the prophecy cats refuse to help, remembering the prophecy that they shall save or destroy the forest, and decide that the forest is ruined beyond repair and needs to be destroyed.
They then take in whatever is left of the clans once the prophecy is fulfilled, absorbing the warriors, who then pledge their allegiance to MoonClan, and the cats of the forest are now one united front, protecting each other for outside threats, under the rule of their four, brave and fair leaders.
This really helped me out a lot! I have a book series I'm working on and a super edition I've just finished!
My main characters for my super edition Drippingstar's Path are,
Drippingstone: a medium grey she-cat with a white underbelly and green eyes and a torn left ear
Bristlefur: her mate, a white tom with one blue eye and one brown eye, half of tail missing
Hawkstar: dark brown tabby tom with a cream underbelly
As the deputy of her Clan, FinchClan, it's the end of Green-leaf, and a queen has just had kits, a quarter moon later a fox is spotted and her mate saves her, also driving the fox away, they report this at the gathering that night, and the rest if the clans share there news, (SwampClan and TreeClan)
That night, when the clans were leaving, a badger is smelt coming from the Treeclan border, they check it out and Drippingstone's brother, Badgerjaw (muscular b/w tuxedo with a white stripe on his face)
Saves a shecat from the badger, whilst driving it off there territory, Badgerjaw also feels a connection between him and the shecat (pinetail)
A half moon later she gets a vision and is visited by a StarClan cat telling her, 'A dark time is coming, you must be courageous and brave for the time ahead' as a hawk flew by in the stars,
She wakes up and figures that the 'hawk in the stars' mean something about Hawkstar,
A quarter moon later, Drippingstone is expecting kits and frost is settling in on the clans
Ravenstep (her friend, a all black tom with yellow eyes) has been taking over the dutys for her,
A snow storm arose that night covering the forest in a blanket of snow,
Hawkstar wants to visit StarClan to get wisdom for what to do, but gets lost in the snow, they wait till the next day but he hasn't returned so a patrol led by Drippingstone set out to find him, after searching they find him but just then, Drippingstone goes into labor and has three kits, naming one after Hawkstar as they were to late and he froze to death right after,
They go back home and now, Drippingstar receives her 9 lives from StarClan, She choses Ravenstep to be deputy and it leaves of there.

Thx 🍪!
Ok I read it all...
So where's my cookie...
This helped alot!

This is a wonderful video! I'm the sort of person who comes up with the characters and then the story, so it's lovely to see a different way of doing things. This video is so in-depth and taught me a lot!
I always make a character first, use that design to build a reasoning. Then once i got a story i grab my other ocs and fit those into the story to make it make sense.
For example: i have an oc named tidalwave that as a kit used to be very brave, one day he convinced his sister to sneak out with him in the night to cross the roaringpath (thunderpath). They cross it and he gets hit by a car, but before it can fully run over him his sister grabbed him so it only ran over his legs.
He wakes up and his sister is angry with him, and so is his mother, shes pissed af because his name is related to a phrophecy and she thinks he broke it. His sister is a mommys gal so she takes the moms side. He reluctantly becomes a medicine cat
The mom starts to emotionally and physically abuse him, and his sister stands by not doing anything, which breaks him more. He falls in love with the other medicine cat and they become secret mates. She accidentally becomes pregnant and tidalwaves mom finds out and says that after the gathering she will kill them both as punishment
When they arrive his mom immediately tacked him to the ground and they reluctantly fight. Tidalwave strikes her eyes and she becomes unbalanced. She tries to jump at him but he puts his claws up and accidentally slits her throat.
He is sad that his mother is dead because he thinks its his fault. They go back across the thunderpath but his mate freezes on the road and goes into labor. The rush of adrenaline allows him to use his back legs to jump and push her out of the way of a moving car, but he gets struck. He bleeds out on the other clans territory and gives his mate a phrophecy then dies.
Im missing a hella of a ton details and this is a crappy short version but thats just the important parts.
Oh and i also forgot to say his mom has anxiety disorder, the type that makes you pissed all the time (like me). Im not gonna say how she got it but she has it.
@Flari it won’t make a big difference if she was alone
So far you have helped me with oc design, (trust me you do not want to know what it used to look like) story, and personality! These videos are great and I hope to see more in the future. One thing I would love help on is a prophecy for a few of my OC's, because the ones I have right now are kind of half-stolen from prophecies in the books. I would also love help on a problem going on for the entire clan (drought, leaderless, flood, etc.)
I have been watching your content for so so long and its been amazing to watch you grow and discover your content and self freely and openly im so proud of you, i know im a stranger on the internet but your channel made me feel so capable and seen in this fandom,
I don't like putting a message in my stories, because I like writing the stories to show how my oc got a certain way instead of making it a whole thing. I use my characters for roleplay, so i'm sure there's a difference in stories since most stories in rp are only up until their ages.
With my oc's in a specific story I wrote, there was no message or moral in mind, but at the same time, if I ever wrote it i'm sure some things could be taken as lessons. One of my characters never learn to be at least decent to others around him, and he's driven out when criticism gets too much, because his mother was always there to defend him. He is my favorite character, because he's extremely fun to write for, and I can relate to what he's thinking. Other people don't like him, though, except for the people who 'know him' well enough to be able to get what his morals are. I followed most of the rules here, but I got too attached to my characters, and for a whole year all I could think about was them! When I try to make new characters I just can't get them right, because I always end up saying I couldn't get a story as good as the one I already have. I kept expanding the story, adding on characters and building onto that, now it's all a confusing bundle of "Why'd he do that?" "Why'd she say that?" "How come she's like that?" And I can't tell people because I just know they'd say something like that or do something like that, I don't know why, like being a little kid and punching someone. The teacher asks, why? You say you don't know, and you don't. I write my character's stories as if they were the one's in control, so what they want is what they want, and I know what they want.
when i made BlackClaw , i wanted him to be a villian character whose goal, similar to other evil cats, was to conquer each clan, but i didn't have an idea how, then i wrote a story draft, which was a prophecy that he was going to be evil and turning out to be helpful in the end, which made no sense, this helped with looks and multiple other things that i didn't have in the beginning story, with some time to rethink his backstory, remove some characters, and watch this video, I finally came up with a backstory that made sense, a story that i could involve some ideas that i plotted out in the beggining while also adding new characters and stuff. so thank you!
Love these, make more please if you're happy with it!
Literally listen as I was making a drawing the camp for my warriors oc also thanks for the advice
I always struggle with using 'common' events/scenarios like forbidden romances, permanent injury, deaths et.c. Anyone have any tips for constructing meaningful stories while avoiding stereotypical plots?
I think it's not necessary to avoid the tropes completely. Here I have some ideas for you, using the example trope of forbidden romance:
1) Look at it from the perspective of a different character than usual(like someone who doesn't care and thinks it has nothing to do with them, until somehow it causes a problem that affects them anyway)
2)Turn the typical situation on its head (like maybe the love interest from another Clan #2 is at the center of their own love triangle, and chooses the other cat, and the cat from Clan #1 is upset. But it really makes you think: the main character isn't the only cat whose choices affect the story.)
3)The trope can be something to move the story along, and not be central. (How about 2 side characters, Thunder clan cat A and River clan cat B, have forbidden love. Your protagonists in Riverclan can talk to cat B for info on what's up with Thunderclan, because she has a connection. But because it's forbidden, they have to do it in secret, and it adds this whole little secret-agent-y scene instead of like a soap-opera scene.)
BLESS YOU IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
Ah another great video! You explained things so well and your art has improved a ton💕
RockingCatProductions _
You have no idea how tempted I was to comment "I didn't sneeze"
At the end of the video, when Akira said that there are no rules you need to follow, and she was right, but if you want, you can still make up rules for yourself if it makes you happy. I usually prefer keeping the genetics as realistic as possible, and some others may do the same thing, but not everyone has to. But this doesn't mean that everyone else has to follow those rules, if you see a fanfic with unrealistic markings, and you prefer using realistic ones, you shouldn't get mad at that person. Basically, what I'm trying to say is, it's your story, do whatever you want.
This is my oc’s backstory, he’s currently my favorite oc of mine actually!
Claystar
He was a kittypet before wandering off too far and joining WindClan, he was then named Claypaw after his pelt color, later he becomes deputy, then he falls in love with a Rouge named Crow, once he becomes leader he lets her join, as Crowleap but this other tom named Poppydip falls in love with her and then they have a kit, Claystar, or of anger and jealousy kills Poppydip and Crowleap didn’t find out, then him and Crowleap became mates, once he dies, he ends up in the Dark Forest and meets Crowleap again, lashing out at her, but he’s training Crowleap and Poppydip’s kit, Minnowpaw
Him? A gay couple? YESH!
You are such a good artist!
I just love the art for the Apprentice! 💖
This honestly really helps. When I was making my own Fanfic, everything was just jumbled together and made no sense. I was running out of scenarios and now that I watched this, it is amazing. You make awesome videos! Good luck to 200K!
This video really helped me! I'm currently writing a story for one of my characters, HeatherMist, and your advice really helped with her character and story
Thanks again for the tips sometimes I'm not sure if my warrior cat villains motives are believable enough. But thanks you're a big help to everybody who is looking forward to making their own OC
I just recently started writing a story, my main cat is named metalscar, he was originally called owlpaw, for his wide orange eyes. On his last assesmant he was hevaly scared when he stumbled into a construction sight and had sheet metal fall on top of him, he was and outcast due to his scars and only has one friend, troutstripe. He falls in love with her as she likes him for his personality and ability to go on with his dueties besides his scars.
I un-ironically have an oc with desaturated green fur who’s a leader but she has a great story and that’s what matters!
Time to create an OC now!
I would argue that symbolism is not a necessary building block, but an interesting addition to a story. It enhances the story and the themes, yes, but you can still have a great story without it. I do think this is a wonderful video.
For making a story, I find having a really common plot (etc. Orphaned or stuff) but put a twist in it, and as you plan that, lots of ideas can come to you.
I have an oc. His name is Brambleberry, and he's in Thunderclan. When he was a kit, his mother was murdered by his father for accusing him of cheating on her. After that Bramblekit was treated poorly by his father. He wasn't allowed to sleep in the nursery or take food from the pile. If he broke any rules, his father would punish him horribly. This caused Bramblekit to rarely trust any cats and develop anger issues. He was a bully, often bullying his fellow kits, and was held back from being an apprentice two times. However, two apprentices witnessed his father's abuse and reported it, causing his father to be exiled. A she cat helped Bramblekit control his anger, though she was never able to cure his trust issues. One day he went out on a solo hunting mission as an apprentice and suddenly got attacked by his father. He had led two dogs behind him, and held Bramblepaw down madly while the dogs attacked them. The dogs killed his father and tore off Bramblepaw's leg and tail. Bramblepaw recovered and became a medicine cat, partially because of his disability and partially because he didn't want to hurt any more cats than he did when he was a kit.
Brambleberry is snappy and has trouble trusting other cats. He is a skilled medicine cat and is loyal as well. He doesn't have much sympathy/empathy unless the cat went through something like him. He is known to murder cats who knows abuses their kits, and strives to stop what happened to him ever happening to anyone else.
Oh oh I got one! :D
Name:Ocean/ Ocean-tail
Role in clan:med. cat (He dosnt like fighting)
Coat color: blue-gray
Back story: Ocean was a kitty pet. He hated his life tho he had his sister turtle who loved hers.when he told her he was going into the wild (no pun intended) she warned him about the wild cats but he ignored her. Soon when he was in the woods he met a snake clan cat named tiny petal
She had to take him back to her clan and they let him live. And soon let him choose a role in the clan to train as, he picked med. cat. He picked it cause he didn’t enjoy the life of a warrior, and cause he had begun having feelings for tiny petal.
ONE YEAR LATER
(He’s 3 years old now btw)
Soon he was old enough to have an app. (Seal-paw) Then he ran out of almost everything in the med. den.
So He went out collecting herbs with tiny petal and his app. Seal-paw.but heard a scream (or yowl) of terror and thought it was familiar.
So he told them to stay there and then he rushed over to where he thought it was and to his fear it was his sister!!He dived in without a second thought.grabed her scruff and tried to swim over to the shore but had lost strength and drowned.
cats dont know what the ocean is, they just call it the sundrown-place, so oceantail's name would be sundrown-place-tail,
also, does your character live in a forest? if so, then sealpaw's name has to be changed, because there are no seals in the forest, only mice, squirrels, rabbits, foxes, badgers, etc.
they may live near the sun-drown place and find out what it's called and they eat fish and sealgulls from the ocean..so that might make the story more understandable!
@@mitziolet While that is true, Scott's story could take place in a place near water, far away from the clans, and they could have totally different naming systems, and maybe not even know what foxes or badgers are.
I've created my OC. Tumblefoot.
Tumblekit was born and his dad died from greencough the next moon. His mom,Marigoldsong. got exiled, for being a medicine cat and having kits. She left with her kits and joined Adder the loner in his barn for awhile. Then, SmokeClan took them in when Tumblekit was 6 moons old. He became Tumblepaw and trained as a medicine cat with his mom, but his mom said he was horrible at it. So, he trained to be a warrior. His mentor was the cat that would betray the clan and criticized him,Mumblemuzzle,. He caught a vole on his first hunting but it was after he lost footing in the grass and landed on it. His mentor tried to kill him after that, but he got away and told the clan. Mumblemuzzle was exiled. He became a warrior soon enough after learning how to keep his footing. He had a crush on Willowheart, the sleek, silver warrior. They became mates and she had his kits, Tanglekit, Silverkit and Graykit. Graykit died from greencough. He cursed StarClan after that. He somehow became deputy and watched his 2 living kits grow up. They became fine warriors. Tanglepelt and Silverheart. Willowheart had died soon after. His grief took over. He was not allowed out of camp for a moon. He finally calmed down and walked out of camp. He lead a battle patrol for an ambush on DoveClan. Then, he had the power of StarClan on his side as he saved his leader from losing his last life, he died after getting ripped in the belly. He looked over his kits as they grieved. Then, he died in StarClan saving his daughter, Silverheart, during a battle against the Dark Forest.
THAT'S IT! MY FINGERS HURT xD
That's pretty good, but you said "he somehow became deputy". The rest of the story is fantastic, but you need to figure out how/why he became deputy.
**Claps**
So he messed up hunting and so his mentor tried to kill him? And on his first day the clan believed him that mumblemuzzel had tried to kill him??
Just some criticism I liked the story as a whole
One of my OC’s is calked SwanFeather. She is a white she cat with grey and black stripes. She has a black tail tip and black ears. She also has green eyes. She lost her father in a battle with ShadowClan (she is Thunderclan btw) as an apprentice. But that didn’t stop her from trying to be the best warrior she could be! But once she became a warrior, she almost died alongside her mother from greencough. She struggled with grief for a while, but she still tried to serve her clan as best as she could, though it wasn’t much. One day while she was sitting on SunningRocks, ElkBreeze confessed his feelings for her. They became mates, and she is now expecting his kits. And she can’t wait to have them!
That story was beautiful! XD I loved it. Good job Akira :)
This video was SO HELPFUL! I love Warriors and writing so I wanted to write a fanfic. We’re FINALLY getting to do creative writing in ELA, and my first response was “I NEED to make a Warriors fanfic”. But as I sat down to write, I spent the entire period trying to think of an idea that wasn’t overused or boring and undeveloped. I whent home and looked it up, and I saw this video. I thought, “I like Bright Gardian Akira, this is worth a shot” and now I have a great idea! Thank you so much and please keep making awesome videos!
I've commented before but I'm going to elaborate on HeatherMist
HeatherMist is an over protective and motherly she-cat. Why? Two of her siblings encountered a fox when they snuck out of camp. One was severely injured ,the other killed. She protects and cares for others in fear the same could happen to them. However, due to her caring nature, she sticks to her beliefs and opinions, which ultimately can cause problems. This ties into her story. Her leader rejects two kits found by HeatherMist during a harsh leaf bare. He believed the kits would die from famen in the clan. Raged, HeatherMist left the clan to care for the kits herself, not realising in the beginning that she had no milk to give them.
The story is a WIP
What about OC battle?
Great video!
I love it
Elizabeth Watkins mee too 😀
Wow!
This was awesome and helps a lot :D
Also, sometimes you may not want a character’s personality be reflected by their name ( unless using the suffix ) because prefixes are assigned to kits when they are usually very young, same thing with Tribe cats, but with full names. However, if you have a cat who is from outside the Clans or joined the Clans, then names reflecting personality work really well!
Once again, great video, and I look forward to seeing the next round of OC battle 2!
I followed it and I made better OCs than I used to! Thank you so much for making this tutorial!
your little story there makes me think of my OC, also named Silverflower, why died slowly due to breathing in to much smoke when her clan, WindClan, helped ShadowClan evacuate there camp because of a fire
You were helpful with the story, great video!
My story (for anyone who cares):
Basically the story of a medicine cat apprentice who gets pick up by animal control and ends up in the city where he meets an older rogue. They become friends and the Rogue becomes fond of the forest from what the clan cat tells him. The rogue decides he wants to start his own clan in the city. Eventually they get enough cats to create four clans. The story is basically a 'what if' but also has themes and stuff.
Characters:
Turtlepaw, later becomes Turtleshell.
Turtle, because he is actually a male tortoise shell. My story sticks closer to realism so he gets teased for "looking like a girl"
But turtle is also because he is very shy and unconfident. Later he Becomes Turtleshell because even though he is reclusive, he has great strength and never lets teasing or bad situations hurt him.
The rogue, (I haven't really named him just yet because in my version cats don't really name themselves, but just have nicknames or go by scent. He is a dark gray tom. Gray because he represents the "gray area" that the story takes place in which Turtlepaw is constantly questioning whether this is right or wrong. (Note: I'm also strongly considering making him black and white to the same effect but I don't know)
Clovertoe, Tutrlepaws mentor who comes all the way to the city to find him. Clovertoe is a total hypochondriac and is played like a comic relief, and shows up about halfway through the story. He is my favorite character. Thematically, he represents what Turtlepaw is afraid of becoming (though he does love him like a father).
Additionally there is a villain type character: a white Persian with a very ugly face. But of course only cares that she is a purebred, and thinks she is the prettiest thing in the world. Basically shows what happens when a clan is formed without the right morals.
A clan of rogue that live near a dumpster, they represent a clan without motivation because they just hang around the garbage all day being lazy. (I call them Trash Clan)
None of the city cats believe in star clan but the have their own religion.
I have a lot of ideas for scene and characters but I just sprint know if I want to waste my time on a warrior cat fanfic that no one will read....
GippyHappy
Lol I love it, especially Trash Clan, I'm autmomatically a part of that clan XD
Even if you don't think anyone else will read it, write it! Writing is a great experience in its own way. As you figure out how the story works, you learn more about the world and characters that you created. Sure, it takes more work, but writing is basically like reading a story that no one else has read before. An author of a story is its first reader. And you don't know for a fact that no one would read it. If you finish it and are brave enough to put it where people will see it, then of course someone (probably multiple people) will read it. Whether they will like it or not depends on how good you are at making it continuous (no plot holes), how well it's written (use of vocabulary), and just whether or not they like that kind of series.
I never read a single warriors book, why do i like to watch videos about warriors?
thank you so much this was really helpful I even took notes so I remember your tips while I write my character's bio and story I made a checklist for each bullet point you made for the story to flow well that I will check off as I write it now I don't know if I would post my character anywhere but if I do I will give you credit for all the help and link back to this video so you can help others make great characters :) I click this randomly out of curiosity but now I'm kinda inspired to actually try this XD
Thanks for the help! My character Ashclaw has a backstory of why she left Riverclan, (in one of my role plays) but not a whole story. Again, thanks for the tips!
Thanks For Helping Me make an Oc Because I've been needing A lot of Help
Thank you! I'm gonna make a new OC and use this advice!
I have an OC names Dogpaw. He’s only a background character and isn’t even from my POV clan (the POV is RiverClan and Dogpaw is from WindClan) but I actually wanted to give my background characters stories and opinions and personalities. Therefore, here is Dogpaw’s story:
Dogkit was born to Larkwing and a rogue named Hawk. He was born in the winter with two other siblings, but they weren’t named because they were born dead. Larkwing never wanted kits and only cared about being with Hawk, so she named the surviving kit after something that was a menace to all cats, a dog. She then abandoned Dogkit in WindClan territory (Larkwing is from ThunderClan) and Flamepaw found him while hunting with his mentor, Waspwing. I mean it was an abandoned kit so they brought it to WindClan where he was cared for by Russetstripe and her mate, Weaselspring. Dogkit was seen as a bad omen by many, since his name had “dog” in it, so Dogkit wasn’t very accepted in the clan. He was good friends with the other kits though, Sunkit and Rowankit from Russetstripe’s biological litter, and Alderkit, Dovekit and Ravenkit from Rainsplatter’s litter. Sadly, though, Sunkit begins getting spoken to by a dark forest cat named Ashfall. He eventually convinced Sunkit to turn on his siblings, and since he was the biggest and oldest (which is the reason he was targeted by the dark forest) he was convinced to kill his siblings. So one night Sunkit snuck up on the two and attacked them. Dogkit woke up and fought off Sunkit, But was not able to save Rowankit. This put Dogkit into a depression at a young age, and made him cold towards the other kits, and other cats in general. He feels like he should just run away, and so one night, he sneaks out of the nursery and runs away. Little did he know, there was another kit, Mothkit, that saw him sneaking out. She was worried he’d get hurt because of all the stories her mom had told her about so she followed him. He went to the lake and walked along the shore, not hearing Mothkit. There was a small, sandy, peninsula jutting our into the water where it became deep (u probably know where this is going). Dogkit wanted to see what was there so he went to the tip of it and looked into the water. He noticed a small minnow darting around in the water. He had never seen one before so it spiked his curiosity. He reached in but got startled by the cold water and fell in. He began thrashing in the water and Mothkit went in after him. She wasn’t sure how to swim but figured it out quickly, as her mind works logically and quickly in stressful situations like this. She grabbed Dogkit and pulled him back into the peninsula, and after that, they were inseparable, and they fell into a deep case of young love. Mothkit helped him overcome his depression and he became happy again. (And if ur wondering what happened to Sunkit, he was taken to the moon pool to perform a WindClan ritual for kits who were affected by the dark forest, discovered by a medicine cat named Briarfrost. Anyways, Dogkit and Mothkit became even more inseparable as they got older, and became Dogpaw and Mothpaw. That’s just his story up until now, but I’m probably gonna make a novella or a super edition about him (prob a novella since I can’t stretch his life into almost 40 chapters)
And I applaud you if u read all that. 👏👏👏👏
So I have an OC that needs a warrior name. I’m still developing his story but here’s what I have so far.
So his name is Tornadopaw, because of his tan-grey fur and (kinda) reckless personality. So he trains and the Dark Forest because they are getting more recruits to attack the clans (Tornadopaw is in WindClan btw) and he was given the power to see cats pasts, and he thinks this is a curse. If he brushes past a cat (who is important to the story and all lol) he sees through their eyes their past mistakes and heartbreak and feels all the physical and mental pain each cat goes through, and soon gains sympathy and empathy, to the point where the Dark Forest kicks him out of their cult because they don’t trust him and he just tells his clan their backstories and weaknesses.
That’s all I have so far, if you guys have any ideas or name suggestions please let me know. I am also welcome to you guys telling me what you like and don’t like about his story so far, I kinda just want hep with his warrior name and story, thanks for reading this far and have a great day!!
My oc, Mudfoot, was hit by a monster before she became a warrior and lost her three white legs, leaving the one brown leg. She had to be a medicine cat apprentice, and give up her love for her best friend, Cypressleaf. Later, she has to save Cypressleaf from being hit by the fender of a monster. Mudfoot saved Cypressleaf, and then realized she still loved him. Bam, forbidden love. She never had kits, because she was unable to. Thanks for helping me create a good story for Mudfoot!
O.M.G . FLOWER ALSO SYMBOLISE HOW THE RIVER CLAN APPRENTICE DIED WITH FLAKE PAW, FLAKE. SNOW IN WINTER. POOOOOF
Here’s a backstory of an oc that I made couple days ago it all starts in shadowclan silverkit a gray cat with darker gray and black spots and amber eyes accidentally eats deathberries when she was two moons old. While the medicine cats try to help her the leader renames her deathkit (I know cruel) she survives somehow. She hates her name as a kit and and apprentice. Deathpaw trains very hard with her mentor and in the dark forest. When she gets her warrior name her clanmates realize that deathpaw... well now deathclaw and really bring death thanks to training in the dark forest. Moons after becoming a warrior and later deputy (she didn’t kill deputy) while hunting by herself she meets a rogue who once belonged in windclan named crowclaw. They are at first enemies but later become friends.... and THEN mates. Deathclaw tells the clan she has no idea who the father is. After the kits are born crowclaw comes into shadowclan camp and tells them the real about him being the father. Deathclaw hesitates but reveals its all true. She is of coursed exiled but they let her leave one kit she chooses blackkit a tom who looks like his father exactly which is black with green eyes. She leaves with crowclaw and stonekit a male with green eyes who looks like actual stone but also with a bit darker gray spots and a shecat named silverkit she looks just like her mother but only black spots and amber eyes. They meet another clan called bloodclan and join. Scourge the leader changes deathclaw’s name to spottedpelt. While stonepaw and silver paw are training to be warriors, bloodclan decides to attack shadowclan and then windclan. Crowclaw and spottedpelt don’t really care about attacking their old clans. After the battles that they barely won scourge make stonepaw and silverpaw warriors. Silverpaw is now silverheart and stonepaw is now stonepelt. Then end (for now)
Thanks for the help! I really needed it XD
As a person who tries hard everyday to be the kindest and sweetest possible, I relate to Sandyfern. Sometimes I act like an entire jerk, its like I think with my foot or whatever instead of my brain. You're good at making relateable personalities, Akira.
My main male OC is Oak/Oakwing. He is a medicine cat apprentice. He is a brown tabby with a white chest, green eyes, a stubby tail, and ear Tufts. Oakpaw was never a good and he always found joy in the medicine den which is odd because he is typically very salty.
Mine is Bractpaw, she has a prophecy from the star clan that she would be the ultimate medicine cat. And she is a medicene cat to clarify, haven’t figured out her breed yet but she’s a white cat with black stripes and marks, a light scar on her eye, and a cyan flower perched on her ear.
I'm gonna put my bab here. Her name is sage.
Sage was a kittypet and was living with children who didn't really know how to treat her. She ran into the forest and a fox attacked her. She was saved by some apprentices, Dewpaw, strawberrypaw, gingerpaw and shorepaw. They take her back to camp, and obviously, no one was happy with sage being there but she was injured so they took her into the medicine cat (no name yet but I'll refer to her as Med.). Med took a liking to sage and as she was healing, med would show her herbs and teach her how to make stuff. Once she has healed, she wanted to stay in the clans as a medical cat. This bit is similar to mothewing, but everyone doesn't think that Starclan will accept her. She goes to the moonstone and meets some starclan cats but they tell sage to leave. She's not ment to be in the clans and she will mess up everything. Sage is obviously very upset and begs to stay. Med cat felt so bad for sage she lets her stay and told everyone she was accepted. Starclan was very very angry but let it slide thinking that sage would soon leave, But she doesn't so the kill med cat to perhaps scare sage into leaving. But sage is strong and takes over the dutie of medicine cat. She gets an apprentice. She also proudly had kits with her mate and tells everyone that she doesn't care what Starclan thought of them. When she next traveled to the moon stone, Starclan told her to take her kits and go back to twoleg place or starclan would deal with her them self. Sage days no and Starclan show her that they have sent a fox to kill her kits. She runs from the moon stone and fights off the fox, getting some serious wounds. The kits are safe but sage is in excruciating pain. She dies of Hanika diseases as if all the plants she loved came back to kill her (working on symbolism with this). Starclan don't let her in and she is forced to stay in the camp untill 1000 medicine cats have passed. Sage will appear to leaders, medicine cats, her kin and prophecy cats to help them out and stuff.
That's my baby, her story was inspired by the song ghost as one of the lines are
'White ghost telling me everything I do is wrong
I don't belong here'
Thank you! One of my OC'S needed a back story and more! Thank you so much for this Early clan here is my OC coming in :p
I have an OC, Thistlechaser. Her mother is from a Clan that values that 'spark' of intelligence in kits above almost all else, and if a kit does not display that 'spark' soon enough, the mother traditionally abandons that kit in the forest to ensure the clan's survival, so that they don't have feral 'beasts' in camp. Thistlekit was one such kit, and when her mother, Pinestripe, took her out into the forest to die, she was reminded of a past litter, who she had to abandon all of them. Pinestripe was so consumed with grief-rage that she very nearly ended Thistlekit's life right then. She didn't, but Thistlechaser ended up with a permenantly crippled foreleg and with voices in her head. I chose the name Thistlechaser because she seems prickly and well.. crazy at first (which she is.) but once you earn her love, she will chase after you through thick and thin. Also, because she has difficulty running due to her crippled foreleg, and I like the irony. 😳
I only have a few questions about this:
Why is Mousefur Cloudtail's mentor, why does Bluestar live in Riverclan and why does Cloudtail have a crush on Bluestar?
XD
I based my main oc Blossomleaf's story on a roleplay in one of the warriors games and just added onto that. I'm currently working on a fan fiction so thank you for making this video this will definitely help me! ☺
I recently just made a Warrior cats OC
Actually my first one
And I wanted to see the people in the comment section opinions
Her name is LilySong
She is a pretty she cat with a dappled coat
She is kind and loving and caring
But she is way too sympathetic which made her quite a bad warrior
Whenever she was fighting someone she would see their pain and feel guilty and let them go
Her father was a Calico cat
And her mother was a beautiful white she cat
Her dad was very judgemental and hard on Lilysong
The reason for this is because her father was a kitty pet and nobody knew accept the leader
Her father acted harsh and judgemental so nobody would think that he was kitty pet
Her mother was not harsh on her but was still not very sympathetic
Her mother died on a patrol because of a fox
LilySong became depressed because her mother was very important to her and she always felt like her mother understood her
Her father still was very harsh on her and started being even more harsh when LilySong's mother died
After LilySong's mother's death LilySong became a very bad mentor
She was given a apprentice called SparrowPaw
And rarely ever took him out to hunt
One day she saw SparrowPaw sitting in apprentices den on his own with his head on his paws
Being the sympathetic cat she was she asked him what's wrong
SparrowPaw screamed at LilySong telling her how he felt seeing all his friends being able to hunt and he just stayed in the camp
LilySong left the apprentice's den and went to the Warriors den to think
She thought about how she was too sympathetic and that her dad was harsh and her mother was dead
She thought about how much of a bad warrior and mentor she was
The truth was she just didn't want to be like her father and was too scared to become harsh like him
LilySong apologised to SparrowPaw and apologised to the leader
She lived the rest of her life like a normal warrior
SparrowPaw became SparrowClaw
And LilySong became an elder
She died of old age and saw her mother in starclan
Hope you like my OC
When I started writing, I made Blackpaw. Blackpaw got himself a flaw from rogues, his flaw became a problem with his training, the clan saw this flaw, and helped Blackpaw overcome his flaw. Blackpaws friends Tigerpaw and Nettle helped him with his axietty and overcome his flaw by tutoring him and talking to him everyday. The lesson of the story is that You can't solve all your problems on your own, everyone wants to help you.
My OC Saviorlight is literally just half WC and half RC. That's it. I mostly do roleplays, so it's just easier to have two specific Clans to live in, and not have a billion different littledetails in my story which I have to remmber all the time.
It doesn’t always take a long time and a bunch of story elements to come up with character names and designs. For two of my OCs, I had the idea of two sisters who have trouble getting along because one is very skilled at hunting and fighting but has a lot of trouble making friends while the other is awful at hunting and fighting but can become friends with anyone after just a few minutes of conversation. So when I thought of names the first thing that popped into mind was Moon-whisper and Sun-screech, since both prefixes and suffixes are opposites. Then when I thought of pelt patterns, I remembered that kits don’t immediately have personalities, so I gave Moon-whisper black fur with white markings that look like moons, and I made Sun-screech a very bright orange and golden calico.
This was so helpful. All my oc's don't have a great backstory and when i write something its just poop cause i don't have any idea what im doing. Now i have done an oc and few background characters + a story, in one hour.
I have a character I am obsessed with, his name is Thistlefang. When he was young he was a kittypet named Trevor, he had two brothers and a sister, Andreas, Vermillion, and Harper. His parents hated each other and his father was abusive, his father(Hawk) attacked his mother and she seemed to have died(though she didn't). Hawk ran away from the problem and left the kits to die, when Trevor asked him what to do, he responded with, "run away, leave to the clans." Trevor proceeded to do this, he met a cat named Cipher who asked him, "What is a young kit like you dong out here alone?" Trevor explains that he was gong to the clans, Cipher helps him by telling him StormClan is close by and smashing off his collar to give him a better chance. A kit named Harpkit finds Trevor and brings him to StormClan, a queen named Littlefeather fosters him, Littlefeather has another kit named Silverkit. Skip a while forward and Trevor sneaks out, he gets attacked by a badger and Littlefeather sacrifices herself to save Trevor, a patrol comes along seconds to late with Silverkit(now Silverpaw). Silverpaw blames this on Trevor and claws him across the face. Skip to Trevor's apprentice ceremony, he gets apprenticed to Thornclaw, a daylight warrior who is the fiercest warrior in the Clan, she suggests the name Thistlepaw because of his long claws. Thistlepaw sees a cat named Darkstar at the ceremony, when he asks where Darkstar is, Thornclaw tells him that he died a long time ago. Skip a while and Harppaw wakes Thistlepaw to go to the border, she explains that Jaggedpaw told her Silverpaw started a fight at the SkyClan border. Thistlepaw goes with her ony because he likes her, they find out that Silverpaw was arguing with Fernstar, the leader of SkyClan. The duo intervenes and then a fight breaks out, Thistlepaw is scared to fight and Sikverpaw uses this as an excuse to attack him. Harppaw begs Fernstar to make them stop and he pulls Silverpaw away from Thistlepaw, Silverpaw suckers everyone into not saying a word about what happened. That night, a Dark Forest warrior named Blackdream comes to Thistlepaw, he teases Thistlepaw and then taunts him about revenge, Thistlepaw says he wishes Silverpaw would leave him alone and Blackdream replies with, "make him fear you." then attacks him, Thistlepaw fought back this time and they both agreed to meet the next night. Skip a while and Thornclaw and Duckhowl take their apprentices and Jaggedpaw to battle train, Thornclaw leaves for a bit. Duckhowl tells Jaggedpaw and Silverpaw to kill Thistlepaw(i haven't thought out why yet but I'm probably going to make something bad happen with kittypets in Duckhowl's past) and they do so. Due to Thistlepaw's df training, he gets Silverpaw to run away and JAggedpaw backs off. Duckhowl then attacks Thistlepaw himself and Thistlepaw kills him, Jaggedpaw then tries to run but Thistlepaw catches him and gives him a death threat before letting him go.
To be continued...
Congrats if you read all of this, there is way more but i didn't want to make this too long.
Anyway the moral of his story is, "it is never too late to try again."
This is because later on when he is a warrior, he kills the current deputy. Silverstar(who is unknowing of this) makes him the new deputy. Silverstar was always terrible to Thistlefang so he asks him why he made hi deputy, Siverstar says that he was wrong and he wants to start over and get a new chance. Thistlefang is able to relate to Silverstar and hesitantly excepts.
After this incident Thistlefang starts to let his past go, starting with him leaving the dark forest. After a while, Minnowtail(Medicine cat and Thistlefang's old apprentice) tells Silverstar that Thistlefang tried to kill him when he was an apprentice(this is why he became a Medicine Cat) and Thistlefang is exiled. During his exile he tries to kill Hopepaw(a SkyClan MCA) and fails, she doesn't know who it was but Minnowtail does. Minnowtail goes out that night to find Thistlefang and stumbles apon a dead body, this is Beaverdawn(Hopepaw's mentor) and Thistkefang then tries to kill him, while doing so he starts whispering that he is sorry and apologizes to everyone he killed, then runs away, leaving Minnowtail alone, and luckily still living.
Skip a while forward and Minnowtail finds Thistlefang, they both choose to ignore what happened a whil ago. Thistlefang now lives in a abandoned shed, Thistlefang apparently wants nothing to do with Minnowtail at the moment. A while later Minnowtail comes back to Thistlefang, along with Jaggedtooth, Thornclaw, and Hopepaw. Minnowtail asks Thistlefang about the rogues, Thistlefang says the leader of them is his brother, Vermillion. Minnowtail asks him how he knows, Thistlefang says Beaverdawn told him right before she died. Jaggedtooth, Hopepaw, and Thornclaw get super confused, Thistlefang then tells them about everthing that happened after he got exiled, besides the fact that he almost killed Minnowtail and Hopepaw. They all are reasonably terrified, Minnowtail clarifies the fact that Thistlefang wont kill them. Thistlefang asks them if they could help him take down the rogues, everyone says yes because Thistkefang is bae. A she-cat stumbles in to hide from the rain outside, she looks up and notices Thistkefang. Her eyes widen and she stares at him in awe, Thistefang does the same to her. She comes up to him and whispers that she is sorry, Thistlefang then attacks her in blind rage, he manages to rip her eye out before Minnowtail and Thornclaw pulled him away, this mentioned cat is Thistlefang's mother, Creek. Thistlefang is mad because she left them all to die and never even attempted to find him. Creek runs away, terrified, Thistlefanv realizes what he just did. Everyone around him is terrified at the moment, Thistlefang screams at them to leave, they obviously do so.
The next day they come back, to they're surprise, Creek is there too, along with three other cats, the previously mentioned Cipher, Pyro, and Alaska. Thistlefang tells Minnowtail, Thornclaw, Jaggedtooth, and Hopepaw that Creek wanted to find Vermillion so she begged Thistlefang to include her, Cipher, Pyro, and Alaska were there to help if they needed a team effort job.
Skip a good amount of events(actually this comment has skipped a truck full of events, including major ones) and StarClan visits Thistlefang(while he is still a rogue) and give him nine lives, the cats are Beaverdawn, Littlefeather, Darkstar, Brokensight, Mapleshade, Harper, and other cats i haven't decided lol. His last life was given by Beaverdawn, who gave him a life of forgiveness and sympathy. He wakes up and brushes it off as a weird dream, because Silverstar was still alive and he was a rogue. Skip some more stuff and Thistkefang is with Minnowtail and Hopepaw, they find Vermillion and some other rogues. Vermillion manages to get Thistlefang mad and Thistlefang attacks him, Vermillion beats him embarrassingly, Vermillion tells Thistlefang to kill Minnowtail and Hopepaw or they will all die(Vermillion wanrs to rule the Clans, so he wants them all dead) Thistlefang gets up and looks at Hopepaw and Minnowtail, who think that he will kill them. Thistlefng turns on Vermillion and tries to kill him, he tells Hoprpaw and Minnowtail to run. Thistlefang then gets killed.
Skip a while and Vermillion's army and the Clans go to war. Close to the end of the battle, Hopepaw gets cornered on the edge of the gorge by Vermillion. Sleetstar(PebbleClan leader, Thistlefang's ex mate who he threw in the river because Sleetstar(fur at the time) tried to kill Harpdawn because she thought that she was going to have Thistlefang's kits) since the Clans know how Thistlefang died, Sleetstar gets angry and yells at Vermillion. Brokenwing tells her to stop but she won't.
Now onto Thistlefang, he is revived by StarClan. Brokensight(btw Brokenwing is the reincarnation of Brokensight) tells him to go and stop the war. Thistlefang does as he says, whilst he looks for Hopepaw he runs into Thornclaw, who is beyond happy to see him. Thistlefang asks where Hopepaw is, she says she doesn't know. Thistlefang hears Sleetstar and runs over to her, he sees Vermillion and a idea pops up in head. At this point a lot of cats, including the rogues have gathered to see what is happening. Thistlefang charges into Vermillion, causing them both to fall off.
There is still t more but i don't feel like writing.
If you read all of this you ca marry me, i would enjoy ideas in the comments and maybe light critism.
Interesting
I made a prophecy for one of my characters that matches SO EPICLY
With love you shall find in the purest of pelts, from a contract of secrets.
Disaster come before age take you, and your young shall go with the shadow of death.
So basically, her mate has a pure white pelt, pretty simple, and they hit it off because she blackmailed him since he wasn't supposed to leave his camp. She dies young when her son and formermate attack her and her new family, and one of her kits is rescued by a certain ShadowClan cat who may or may not kill her mate in the future.. only one of his lives at least, so said cat would be "the shadow of death". "Shadow of death" is actually the cat's mate's long-lost-sister... and yeah that gets awkward when they figure that out...
Edit: mate also had a dream where "shadow of death" cat kills him so.. even more detail there.

Wolfpaw, Wolftail, wolfstar, is my first OC she is a gray she cat, and has dark gray stripes on her tail and back, she has dreams of being an actual wolf and has some characteristics of a wolf, such as strength and speed, lots of apprentices are acid of her so the leader won’t make her a mentor anytime soon...... she loves a RiverClan cat named Duckpaw, DuckFoot, they met at night, then she told him about her dreams, he didn’t care he still loved her, THATS ALL OF MY OC RN... ILL MAKE IT BETTER CRI
I'm currently writing a story about my OC Silentwhisper (kit rn in the book ). Her mother was a rogue of some sort and Cloudclan took her in as a kit. She had two other siblings but they died (mother left them in a snowstorm ). A queen named Swiftbird took her in as one of her own. She has two other kits, Finchkit and Firekit. Silently can't remember anything about the snowstorm, but her foster siblings know she isn't really their sis, but try to act as normal as possible around her. ( this is as far as I've come )
I'm gonna try this...
(Sorry if it's bad this is my first time)
Coalkit was found in a twoleg barn on some black stuff. Later the patrol was told that the black stuff was coal, resulting in the name Coalkit. Coalkit was taken to Shadowclan, where the queen Applepelt took care of him. Applepelt never truly liked Coalkit, resulting in Coalkit to be closed off by the time Coalkit became Coalpaw. Coalpaw's mentor was the gray tom Moonpelt. Moonpelt had evil intentions, but nobody suspected it. Eventually Moonpelt told Coalpaw his evil intentions, after Coalpaw was caught spying. Coalpaw told the leader, Stripestar, but she called him a mousebrain. After the deputy, Purplestripe, died of greencough Stripestar named Moonpelt deputy. About a moon after his naming ceremony, Coalfoot and his clanmates were at war with rouges. During the war, Stripestar lost her last life due to a rouge. Moonpelt was the only one who saw it. Finally Moonstar used his evil plans. Coalfoot, feeling betrayed by everyone, ran out of the forest after yowling "I told you!" He came across the barn he was born at, and the kittypet who told the clan cats that the black stuff he was found laying on was coal. The kittypet, Ember, helped Coalfoot find the twoleg den. A twoleg kit ran outside yowling, followed by an adult twoleg. The twoleg adult said something, and Ember whispered "They're naming you Coal."
The story is basically about a cat who doesn't feel apart of his clan, and left when he was proved right. He then found a new life, and name, at a "twoleg den".
Colors:
Coal- Pitch black
Ember- Ginger
Stripestar- Ginger with dark Ginger stripes
Moonstar- white
Purplestripe- Black with white paws and a white tail tip.
Applepelt- dark ginger.

My OC is Sparkheart. Looks like Firestar and sparkpelt, her story:
After her mate firetail was killed in a battle against blackclan, unfairly because he wasn't even attacking the cat,blackclaw, she wants revenge, she won't kill any cat, just wants to hurt him, has four kits,eaglekit,firekit,lovekit, and flowerkit. Duptuy of fireclan. She has green eyes. MY OC
Even though this video is 2 years old and it’s likely nobody will see it, I am going to share one of my oc’s stories.
Amberbrook was born with 3 legs in shadowclan. Her littermate Mudshade was very supportive of her and always thought she would make a great warrior. She was often sent to the medicine den as a kit so that she could learn to walk, play, and fight to be a warrior. But over time, she became more interested in becoming a medicine cat than a warrior, and ended up being apprenticed as a medicine cat. When Nightstar became leader, he made Cinderfur the deputy. The deputy visited Amberpaw often and insisted that they could become mates and he would protect her from those who said it was against the warrior code. When she rejected because she didn’t like him (not to mention he was previously an elder) he attacked her. Later, a few days before she receives her warrior name (her brother already receiving his, and suspiciously sneaking off a lot more) she finds that Cinderfur had gotten her pregnant. After she becomes a medicine cat, the Nightstar killing disease spreads through. With his dying breath, Cinderfur says that Amberbrook had forced him into a relationship with her. She and Mudshade run off to Earthclan, where she finds that her brother had been meeting up with the leader’s daughter, Flurrypelt, who is now carrying his kits.
I feel like the leaders backstory is a bit shallow. She is a warrior originally from Riverclan who has a secret relationship with Runningwind. Starclan silverstream comes and tells her that Earthfrost is carrying Runningwind’s kits and that she had to leave riverclan and start a new clan before the kits were born. I have some pointless deaths in there somewhere and yet another forbidden romance between her daughter and a shadowclan cat (Mudshade) that’s mostly going on in the background of the story.
Love it! It really helped
OMG, THIS REALY HELPED :D
i like this thing it sounds like you know how to do it but BETTER and ill try to do it [ anyway the way i make my ocs to tell storys later and remember is a draw them make them in my fave warriors oc maker game then join the rp after i make the oc and go from there] love your vids !
more Oc videos! thanks for making those^^
My OC is FrostTail he has a good backstory interesting characters currently are rainwhisker,junipertail,The main second main character Amberclaw,and the main character FrostTail
I'm putting a video up on my channel talking about it soon
A character named Rainwhisker appeared in the books, right?
Yeah but before I read the books he was in I made the OC
This will help how to, thx alot. I think that's good idea
“How do you turn no story into story?”
Take away the no, simple.
My OC has a clawed out eye so for story i started with that. I said her eye got clawed out by a fox ahen she was a paw. Her mentor died as well. I wanted a support character (like how brightheart had cloudtail) so i created her a brother who was kinda a generic character. Then i added another sibling who died as a kit when they were kidnapped and basicly i kept adding on to that
I wonder if Squirrelflight and Dovewing becomes parallels in the case of the love triangle.
Wow, nice story! You should make a comic or something else with those characters! I would love to read it! :D
