Warrior Cat Names and Characters Reviewer [CLOSED]

[Arcaii]

Apologies for the wait, both of you.

[Arcaii]

Hey! So I made this characters and I would like to see what you think. They both currently have no names, I have a hard time with names because I want them to be fit them perfectly. DX

Image/Description: Thin she-cat with long striped tabby fur. The colors in her pelt her rather dark, while the underside of her is like a beige/cream. She about the average size for a female cat. Several scars can be found on her body, these include rips in both ears and a few on her shoulder and face. Her eyes are dark brown. Overall, she isn't very striking in color but her face would be if it weren't scarred.
Name:
Gender: Female
Clan: None yet, looking for one for her to join
Rank: Warrior or maybe even deputy
Personality/Skills: Quiet but not introverted. Her most powerful attribute is her words. She is intimidating and rarely seen smiling if at all. It's not uncommon for her clan members to avoid her or assume she is plotting something dark. She doesn't really understand friendship and has a hard time making friends because she doesn't commit. She is a good listener though and is rarely judgmental. She's good at fighting because her reflexes are quick and she reacts fast. This is also boosted from past experiences. Her history has taught her to always be on guard. However she is not very strong so it's a good thing it's hard to catch her off guard. Also her left front paw is significantly weaker than her right due having it injured when she was a kit. She is also very clever.
Important Notes: Her and her sister were the only survivors of her family. Her family was attacked by a rabid dog. This is where she got a good amount of her scars and how she damaged her left front paw. The trauma could be an explanation for why she doesn't care much for joking around. She is depressed but hides it with a confident and strong attitude.

Image/Description: Raven black she-cat with pale blue eyes. She has a few white patches and many scars. She was born with many defects, her right eye is permanently stuck looking one way and she has a harsh underbite.
Name:
Gender: Female
Clan: None yet looking for one to join
Rank: Warrior
Personality/Skills: Though she may have weakness involving her face, she has compensated for them. Without being able to rely on her vision and jaw for fighting/etc she has learned to rely on her legs/paws. She is very nimble and quick, with her one functional eye she can still manage decent accuracy. She is very jumpy and a bit odd. She's nervous all the time but is very kind and friendly. She makes sure she is always polite and feels her place is below everyone else. She knows she's different and although she doesn't show it, she feels it all the time. Her feelings are easily hurt and she has a hard time feeling accepted.
Important Notes: I don't know if this is important but she is the other cat's sister. So she was also in the attack where the rabid dog came in. The experience has affected her and has made her especially jumpy.

You came to the right place, my friend. Fitting names is what we're all about.

Cat 1
Name Suggestion: Beetleclaw/Darkclaw, or Brokenfoot/Twistedfoot.
Name Reasoning: Both prefixes to the left describe a dark brown (or just generally dark) cat, and -claw symbolizes her skill in fighting. However, if she'd be okay with it, the leader could rename her to acknowledge her injury (names on the right). Note that this isn't a shameful thing - in fact, a rename is a very high honor to receive, because it outright boasts of a cat who should have died or have been really incapacitated and yet still serves the Clan.

Character Assessment: I think she's good to go after she gets a name! She's a very interesting character, and one that I imagine would have a neat character arc if she ever does grow out of her lack of humor.
As a side note, I rarely if ever agree with characters being heavily affected by a family member's death, as death is a very average part of Clan life, but in this case I think it works, especially if she was young when she was so heavily damaged. Things like that stick in someone's mind, especially if one is a kid.
I am curious as to why she's currently depressed - I wouldn't think she'd need to be if it happened so long ago (unless those scars and her attitude tend to isolate her, and that's why she's unhappy).
Character Suggestions: None!


Cat 2
Name Suggestion: Shadowfoot/Nightfoot.
Name Reasoning: Both prefixes describe a black cat (though if she does end up in the canon Clans, I don't recommend Shadow-), and -foot describes her speed.

Character Assessment: A quick note: blue eyes aren't possible on a black cat (which is addressed on the front page, but basically it's a recessive gene that shows up on recessive cats, usually white or pale colored ones), so I recommend a color change there, but otherwise her appearance is fine.
Other than that, I like her! These poor girls with the emotional baggage and disfigurements - at least they have each other, and a supporting Clan. These two are very interesting to read about. If you ever make a fic with them in it, let me know; I'd like to read it.
Character Suggestions: Other than changing the eye color, nothing!

could you review this character? c:
Image/Description:
Name: Kestralface
Gender: female
Clan: fanclan
Rank: warrior
Personality/Skills: Kestralface is many a tom's dream, and she knows it. She tends to be very vain, and spends much more time grooming herself than the average molly does. Her father was a kittypet, and although no one in the clan seemed to suspect her mother, Kestralface still feels as though she can't be accepted. She uses her flirtatiousness and charm to help her fit in, even though no one in the clan has ever treated her as an outsider. Although she may make friends easily, her vanity and dramatic tendencies tend to scare off some cats. Her stills are about average, although she avoids hard work when she can.
Important Notes: none

Of course!

Name Type: Traditional
Name Reasoning: Her name fits her perfectly! Usually I recommend Kestrel- to cats without white markings, but she is predominantly black and brown, so it's dandy.
Alternate Name: None!

Character Assessment: Man, I am getting interesting characters lately...
I think she's excellent, honestly. A -face cat who still has insecurities is awesome, and this one is done quite well. I imagine her Clan would probably give her mother some ire if they knew her ancestry, but I've always held the belief that a Clan shouldn't punish a cat for introducing new blood into the Clan, as long as the queen stays with the Clan and raises her litter there. Better than mating with your cousins, I guess.
Character Suggestions: None!

Thank you so much! c: reading your thread has helped me a lot with designing characters.

Hi Arcaii! I was just wondering if you think that clan cats would be able to distinguish when a cat would very distinctly have kittypet ancestry? I want to include a cat who is taken in by a clan (not so much the clan as a very stubborn queen with a debt to be repaid) and at first is snow white, but later develops Siamese markings. Do you think they would be able to tell that their father was most definitely not a clan cat, or would they simply think 'Hmm, that's a bit different'? Thanks for your time!

Oh, this is always delightful to hear. I'm glad I've been able to assist you (however indirectly).

Hello!

It would depend on the amount of human contact the Clan has. If they don't interact with kittypets very often, they would probably be quite surprised and suspicious about the cat's coloring. The elders would probably argue over whether a pointed cat should get a patched prefix or a majority-color prefix, the cats growing up with the pointed would wonder if all cats change colors like that... it would definitely be a source of potential controversy and definite puzzlement (or the apprentices would be boasting about how they have a cat that changes colors and looks special).

On the other hand, if they regularly interact with loners and kittypets, they would recognize the ancestry of the pointed cat, and the reactions would be pretty heavy - this isn't something deniable, no Clan cat looks like that. The coloring would probably be treated more negatively, and the cat would likely face some small discrimination throughout their life from the purists. Although, who knows? Maybe some of the cats find that coloring attractive and be delighted to have that coloring in the Clan where it's legal, which may result in some kittens.

Ah, thank you! I was beginning to plan that arc, and was starting to wonder if it would work or not. They have good knowledge of kittypets, so they'd be extremely negative towards this kit, especially since it reveals he is not only from another clan but of kittypet ancestry. The cat's arc is important to the central arc, so I wanted to make sure it wasn't too outlandish.

{hello again! could I get an analysis on this cat? I'm mainly looking for a harsh personality critique, as well as some ideas for flaws and quirks that might enhance her character.}
name: Goldshimmer/Goldstar
note: I know her name isn't very good; I created her when I first read warriors when I was younger. Long story short(ish), years ago I was a part of a warriors fanclub on another site where the members joined as 'apprentices' and received warrior names after a few months. I chose the name Goldpaw, and she was later named Goldshimmer by the 'leader', and I eventually became the leader 'Goldstar' myself. She's been with me a while, so I'd rather not change her name, even though it's definitely non-traditional.
gender: female
clan: fanclan
description: Goldstar is a slightly small, green-eyed, golden-furred Maine Coon with a white tail-tip, white paws, and a white underbelly and muzzle.
personality: Goldstar tends to keep quiet in order to avoid a confrontation. She's also a strategic planner, and it bothers her when others don't think before acting. Usually preferring to be alone or with a few close friends, her leadership position is a bit overwhelming for Goldstar, but she knows that she must do what is best for her clan. She may seem, at times, tentative and passive, but she knows how to command cats with her riveting words, even though she speaks with a calm and quiet voice. Goldstar may also have a hard time accepting a mistake on her part, and will feel shame and self-resentment even after other cats have forgotten her error.
skills: Goldstar has a knack for swimming and fishing. She also loves to hunt, although her skill isn't particularly above average.

Image/Description: xXx
Name: Emberheart
Gender: female
Clan: fanclan
Rank: warrior
Personality/Skills:

Emberheart, the twenty moon old warrior. This youngster is easily influenced by her emotions-which is how she got her warrior name. Emberheart was born to two warriors by the names of Robintail and Blackclaw; she was the only kit of the litter that her mother bore. Contrary to the stereotype, Emberheart was not spoiled as a kit; In fact, her parents pushed her even harder because of it. This she-cat has a keen sense of right versus wrong and to accompany these strong ideals, Emberheart is also rather outspoken about everything in general. She'll say what she's thinking without hesitation. Her words are always painstakingly honest; she's a heartbreaker who wears her heart on her sleeve one could say. Her mother died from green cough after Emberheart became a warrior but the words of Robintail still echo in Emberheart's mind- 'learn not to care, emberheart' and oh, Emberheart tries. This warrior tries not to let her emotions influence her actions but such a thing is easier said than done. Honest to a fault and compassionate, Emberheart makes an adequate warrior but she's still quite young and immature. Naive and innocent, Emberheart still has much to learn.

Important Notes: Thank you so much! I hoped I used the -heart suffix correctly but please let me know if I misused it. Also, I think the cat in the picture is a tortoiseshell, hence the prefix Ember- but I'm not 100% sure. Again, please correct me if I'm wrong; I'm not the best when it comes to these kind of things. uwu
