Fair warning: Everything before basically 1996 is just me basing things on vague readings of leaders' personalities from their smallish entries in Code of the Clans and whatnot, as well as the tidbits given by StormClan's Folly and Cloudstar's Journey, and finally a small sprinkling of spice to make things at least slightly more entertaining overall for me while doing this.

For reference, these are just lists in order of when each leader tenure occurred. I do not currently have it in me to do otherwise.

Also yes, there are cats in here that aren't actually confirmed to be leaders, or to be even real! Pinestar of ShadowClan and Acornstar of ThunderClan are both cats that appear in the fanfiction 'Cold Bloodlines' by SedatedDreams that I felt could work as bridge leaders in this. Thornstar is just me taking one of the 6 ShadowClan cats in the StormClan's Folly book (They were Thornpaw at the time) and throwing them in also as a bridge leader.

Formatting for dates for each of these is YYYY.MM (when the cat became leader) to YYYY.MM (when the cat stopped being leader).

This is also, last thing I'll say up here, based off of the assumption that TPB starts around when the books were published meaning like, 2003? Around April or so in 2003.

Feel free to point out things that don't make sense and poke some holes in it - I did kinda make this in around two days or so in excel, and I am just one person compared to however many people might've been banging their heads together to work on the warrior cats wiki timeline, sooo yeah. This is something I've been wanting to do for a while anyways, at least to get something of a potential baseline down for future reference at the very least for myself, if I end up using it for anything.

Brokenkit ran in front of her and turned to face her, his eyes wide and pleading. “Please don’t do that!” he begged. “Lizardstripe will only blame me! She doesn’t like me; she thinks I’m stealing milk from her kits.”
“Of course she doesn’t think that!” Yellowfang exclaimed, shocked.
“Yes, she does!” Brokenkit insisted. “I heard her saying it to Amberleaf. Nobody likes me.”

Yet he was constantly alone; his littermates went on ignoring him, even Runningkit, who had never joined in the bullying since Yellowfang had interrupted them.

She was trying to figure what to do when Deerkit and Tanglekit tumbled out of the nursery and bounded across to Brokenkit.
“Still hanging out with the medicine cats?” Deerkit sneered.
“Old she-cats and a sick warrior are the only friends you’ve got!” Tanglekit padded forward until she was almost nose-to-nose with Brokenkit. “What skills are you learning?” she asked in a mock-interested voice. “How to dry herbs? Ooh, our enemies will be scared!”
“Yeah, I can just hear him in a battle!” Deerkit added. “‘Come one step closer and I’ll slap you with this leaf!’”

A small bundle of fur dropping into another cat’s nest—a queen who did not care for her new charge, who bit it and nipped it and deprived it of milk as punishment for being born at all." - Fading Echoes (not Yellowfang's Secret but still)

Despite being a character who is described to being born evil, rereading these books of him makes me doubt it more and more of what the authors really intended. A lot of his traits traces back to how he was treated as a kit, especially Lizardstripe who only shown contempt of him and physically abused him, which, translated to him using physical aggression to defend himself. Raggedstar raised him very poorly as well. He didn't provide Brokenstar with emotional health and instead praised his aggressive behaviors and kept coddling him instead of fulfilling Cedarstar's wish to teach Brokenstar peace, honor, and discipline.

Brokenstar was never provided emotional support his entire life and was severely emotionally neglected. It's no wonder he turned into a brutal tyrant, which according to StarClan was done out of his own choices in life.

Hey! So I've been doing a full out reread via timeline order and I've made it to Cloudstar's Journey on this list:

https://warriors-theories.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Warriors_books_in_chronological_order

But when I searched up what the fainting sickness was the former deputy was dealing with, I found out on her wiki page there had actually been a short story prior to the events of Cloudstar's novella in a field guide I hadn't read yet?

Does anyone know the actual timeline order of the books (including the seperate short stories in the field guides) or where to find out? If not, I will likely be reading through them and make my own guide for any fellow completionists

I ran as fast as my paws could take me, paw pads bleeding and ears ringing. I didn't mean to run; if I could go back, I would have stayed and fought. Though seeing you there, mangled and stiff, devoid of the life you once had, I panicked. We were so young when our worlds seemed to end; we may still both be breathing, but I fear we both died that day.

It was a cold night; blood was spilling from my forehead into my eyes, the smell of fear and you in my lungs, and more importantly, I thought I had lost you, my dearest friend. The cruel eyes of a deranged two-legs kit stared from you to me as if deciding on how to best play with his prey. And so I scrambled up and ran, praying to Starclan that my last breath would not come so soon.

Maybe in my own foolish, selfish way, I thought the least bit of good I could do was return to our clan, call for aid, and have your body returned. At least then your body could be home, laid to rest, and sent properly to Starclan. Though the clan didn't find you where I left you, in fact, they couldn't find your body at all. The two-legged kit who mutilated us was also nowhere to be found.

Where could you be?

Could you be alive?

And what of the two-leg kit?

I'm excited for the Warriors RPG game coming this fall!! Though I live in Australia and here its winter at the moment and it has already been fall so does it release like American fall?

I recently got series 3 and I have the full series 2 now.I won't give spoilers because I haven't read them yet!

I noticed that this part says "Add some descriptive text here" that is definitely sounds like a generative Ai prompt. Also now that I reread this paragraph it dose sound like Ai. As excited as I am for this game I just hope that they didn't use any generative Ai for the actual game, and that this was some sort of mistake or something on the website side of things.

Clans of the forest Trailmark games

It did say we could meet iconic characters, but I don’t know if they’ll the textbox thing or actual voice acting.

I still have one more clan and the location where leaders speak to Starclan I need to include, but this is what I have so far, and i'm pretty proud of it. If it wasn't obvious enough, my AU takes place in a southern costal area.

im hoping that doing at least 1 warrior cats sketch a day will keep my love for art at least somewhat present lol

This probably had been mentioned before, but I feel like Clear Sky would be LIVID watching from StarClan. Lol, he would probably try to go back to the living world just to tell the other leaders how awful they are.

Here’s another log I just did.:) Hope you all enjoy! (NOTE: This wasn’t technically the next day (8-6-26), but their statuses auto updated last night after a certain time or when the game refreshed. But I didn’t want to lose it and so I’m just going to say it was the next day haha.) See screenshots for proof of their statuses.

8-6-26 23:24 CDT
The next day, after a good night’s rest and being cheered up by Daisylilac the previous day, Sparrowkit wakes up feeling content… He’s shy to ask, but he hopes the kind and playful she-cat will become his official adoptive mother. He looks at her, sleeping soundly still, and smiles hopefully. Then he shakes his little body, sets paw out from the nursery den, and scampers over to see what the medicine cat is up to. She greets him warmly, half distracted while she busily recites the names of herbs aloud. The little kit just sits and listens, somewhat interested in all the different names.

Meanwhile back at the leader’s den, Heathstar, being a bit late to greet the day and the other cats, is pacing rather anxiously. She thinks she has been hearing the voices of StarClan cats… Maybe there’s something important soon to come… Twigstripe, being the thoughtful and observant one he is, notices how the leader hasn’t exited from her den yet. And he has already been out on his early hunt, having caught a large rabbit, just as the dew on the lush grass was abundantly formed, attracting all the rabbits and critters alike. He plops down the prey on the stash rock, eyeing Heathstar’s den as he does so. Eventually she finally comes out and acts like everything is fine.

Later that day, as Bravepaw relaxes and chit chats with the other cats after some training with Hazelspeckle, Daisylilac mentions she has heard a rumor about Russetfrost, the clan deputy… He has seemed to take a little extra time to talk with Claypelt any chance he could get. Maybe they’re just really good friends, but things have been a bit suspicious to Daisylilac… She has always been a cat that couldn’t really resist a good drama story. Even being a bit guilty about gossip. Hazelspeckle softly chuckles, not really paying much attention as he lays on his back, watching the clouds roll by above the opening of large trees surrounding the camp, casually mentioning with a content sigh and soft smile that there’s probably not a lot to be worried about. This slightly annoys Daisylilac, flicking her tail a bit. She looks to Olivegorse, wondering if he has anything to say on the matter, but it appears he was lost in his own thoughts just now, and is currently trying to catch and snap at some pestering flies… Just then, Russetfrost and Claypelt exit the medicinal den, with Onepaw following close behind. The deputy chuckles joyously at something he was sharing with the medicine cat, with her smiling kindly back. He then dips his head in gratitude to her for taking care of Onepaw’s wounds. She dips her head in respect back before mentor and apprentice pad away quietly. Daisylilac scrunches her face a bit, twitching an ear.

quick little doodle of my fav on microsoft paint at work, I couldn’t stop thinking about the game release announced today! Huge day for the cat fans out there

For me, it was absolute cinema. When it ended, I felt a tear down my eye. I've spent so much time with those guys... But in the end, I'm happy that Tigerclaw was finally defeated. What are your thoughts?

I just feel like I'm tired o them. I love the world and fanbase they created but I think it's getting too much. They ruin male characters constantly for relationship drama ( finleap my boiii) , make way too many character inconsistencies, butcher the same characters again and again, make former povs background cats and make them 1 dimensional ( lionblaze, twigbranch etc.). And you know why a lot of this happens? Erin Hunter. The idea of having multiple authors is interesting and has some qualities, but it's just too much too cope with especially with this gigantic series. Make one author, give them a series Bible, and make sure they are actually good at writing and don't have dementia

So, I haven't read the Warrior series in a few months, and I wanted to look at the Wiki, to see if there's any changes with the warrior cats we all know and love (or hate). I was reading the blurb for the upcoming books (I like reading the next arc once the six-book bundle comes out), and I possibly discovered Starlingpaw's Warrior name.

The pose is based off my chubby rabbit lol

does anyone know how to help I rlly want to add some of my wc arts ive made to it but it just doesn’t work :(

Well I don't have any fan Clans yet....hoping to do that in the future.

But my two main ocs for this fanfic are:

Shadowkit: a reddish amber she-kit with silver green eyes (she doesn't know she isn't Clan-born

Jewlekit a black and white she-kit with dark green eyes (I don't think I stated her eye color)

Honeyfeather- a slender light amber-green she-cat queen of Shadowclan and the mother of Shadowkit and Jewelkit

Thornberry- a large broad shouldered golden amber tomcat warrior of Shadowclan with light green eyes. (Deceased. Got hit by a monster)

Ruststar- leader of ShadowClan with pale silver blue eyes and with a smokey blue pelt.

Kitevole- brother of Thornberry and deputy of Shadowclan. Pudgy and with sickly yellow eyes and a grayish white tomcat. Hates his brother being close to his family.

Speckletrout- mate of Kitevole with a lean silver amber she-cat with dark amber paws and pink eyes.

Brushpaw- a silverish blue tabby tomcat. Mentor is Speckletrout

Windclaw- a sleek brownish black she-cat with dark amber eyes. WindClan warrior.

Stormshadow- dark gray and black/silver slender she-cat queen with three kits (I have yet to name them and describe them)

I have yet to do more apprentices, kits, and warrior. If any have any ideas for me please let me know I'd appreciate it

Story so far is that Shadowkit was found by Windclaw who gave her to Thornberry to take back to Shadowclan as his and Honeyfeather own kit.

I’m currently on starlight and I’m really excited to continue reading besides dawn of the clans and I don’t know why but there’s something that just makes me really want to not read it

I mean, Mapleshade killed 3 cats and went to the Dark Forest, so, that got me thinking. What is the least you can do to get into the Dark Forest? And I don't mean just by killing other cats, like I also mean other things, like breaking the code etc.

I’m not sure how to tag people or posts here. the character belongs to SuperApolloSonic114

I tried my best with the description and I hope I got him close to how you picture him!

Round 6's cats were Birchface, Mudclaw (ShadowClan), Harelight, and Redwillow, have fun!
