She had an affair with God, an invisible giant spirit force that's everywhere at once. Also, Brindleface gave birth to a devil child, so maybe not.

I know Vicky said it wasn't Redtail, but I'll continue to think it's him until we get actual confirmation. And if not him, then maybe (as unlikely as it seems) Darkstripe.
Whitestorm could also be a possibility, but he doesn't seem like the type of cat to have multiple mates. The same goes for Lionheart, who fathered Frostfur's kits (Vicky said that he was when I asked her in the same post I asked if Redtail was the father of Brindleface's second litter; for some reason, the post is gone). I know it was a different time, but I just can't see it with these two.
Longtail is Brindleface's half-brother, so he's instantly out unless they pulled a Willowpelt and Patchpelt. I'm not sure how to feel about Runningwind being the father, and I'd actually feel a little bad for Ashfur if it turned out to be Tigerclaw.

I'm not sure how to feel about Runningwind being the father, and I'd actually feel a little bad for Ashfur if it turned out to be Tigerclaw. For me, it's either: Redtail, Darkstripe or Runningwind. Redtail seems very likely, as he's already the father of Brindleface's first litter, Sandstorm. And Brindleface's 2nd litter was born during Into the Wild, the exact same book Redtail died and Sandpaw was out of the Nursery. So Redtail could of easily impregnated Brindleface again before Tigerstar killed him. Runningwind, simply because he hasn't fathered anyone in the canon yet. Like you said before, I wouldn't want to use any characters like Whitestorm or Lionheart, as they already have separate mates/litters. So if it then turns out they were having multiple mates at once, it'd make their characters look bad. Patchpelt suffered because of this, being mates with his own sister and Su saying he's also the father of Swiftpaw. If that were the case, he'd have 3 mates he never showed much interest in. (Though admittedly this does help develop a character, who otherwise be another faceless elder. As Warriors never had a character who's 100% genuinely like that before.) Darkstripe, I would like the irony of it: Ashfur being even more of a hypocrite for judging Brambleclaw for his father, their father would be loyal to the one who killed their mother and truly 'father like son'. However, the only way that would work, is if Brindleface never told her kits who their father was. Which isn't completely unbelievable. Even before Tigerclaw was exposed, Darkstripe already had a bad reputation around camp. Also, chances are, Brindleface and Darkstripe's relationship most likely come down to an affair, out of lust and not proper love. Then, during the first Arc, Queens were respected if they didn't wish to announce the father. If this were the case, then Darkstripe would be able to mentor he's own daughter, Fernpaw. If we consider Su still canon, then Elderkit, one of the kits who died, is described as dark grey with yellow eyes, quite similar to Darkstripe. However, this rides on a lot of assumptions and what ifs. Worse, this turning out to be the case, would effect Darkstripe's character quite a lot, since it's thought he was too dedicated to Tigerstar to pursue a romantic relationship. Yet said again, if it was an affair with Brindleface that they both regret, it would be more believable. It's quite hard to decide actually. Either Runningwind or Redtail would be the least problematic/likely. Though honestly, as passionate Ashfur hater, I wouldn't like to give him an edge up in pity points due to his father also being killed by Tigerstar. However Darkstripe definitely would be the most interesting, so I'd have to headcanon him.

Maybe RD can finally reveal that...
If not I'll always headcanon Whitestorm since he is the most hinted at. I can definitely see him and Brindleface having kits together to give ThunderClan more warriors. Plus, Whitestorm was the one at the nursery when the kits were born, the one who convinced Firestar that Ashpaw and Fernpaw should help lure the dogs away and was seen casually talking to I believe it was Ashfur at one point without any plot relevant reason

I believe Whitestorm is Ferncloud and Ashfur's father, but was never Brindleface's mate. They could have been good friends so Whitestorm gave her kits to distract her from her mate's death. If Whitestorm wasn't the father, why would Brindleface talk to a random tom about her kits' apprentice ceremonies?

Whitestorm wasn't really a random tom to her, since he was also Brindleface's foster brother and they appeared to be close as kits.

I can't wait for RD to come out, but for now, I'm going with Whitestorm. They were pretty close, it seems.

I prefer Whitestorm wasn't Ashfur and Fernclouds' father. Because as mentioned before, he doesn't seem like the kind of tom to have multiple mates. IK the series was more casual about it in the first arc, much like real cats are, but in regards to his character as a whole? Nope. I can't see it.
And I don't see Darkstripe as the kind of guy to have kits.
So I'm more for Brindleface maybe having mated with a random tom or something when she had Ash and Fern. Because it was a thing for Queens to not HAVE to give the name of the father out, and they can keep his identity a secret if she wanted. So why not? I only see the Fern/Ash father drama being a thing only for family tree business, and a lot of that for first arc cats isn't even canon in the first arc due family trees being made long after it was released anyways, they're fanmade and it's best if those for cats in the first arc be treated as such. So considering how mates were more casual in the first arc for some cases, it being a random loner tom shouldn't be left out as an option.

Some passing rogue. I kind of wish unknown fathers were MORE common at this point, because of how much of a trainwreck the family trees are in TC at this point.
Redtail would be the most obvious choice, since he was her mate at one point, and he was alive when she was in the nursery in Into The Wild. His novella will hopefully shed some more light on his relationships in the Clan, because there's not much to go off of about Brindleface and Redtail. Whitestorm was her foster brother, which... doesn't do much to eliminate him as a candidate because of how Warriors is, but I don't see him as being her mate. And Darkstripe... he's far to obsessed with Tigerclaw to have time to pay attention to anyone else.
So... I dunno. I kind of just think of their father as being some rando rogue.

Maybe it is Longtail. If Redtail was the father then Ashfur would have double reason to hate Tigerclaw who is Brambleclaw's father because he killed both of his parents.

Longtail is Brindleface's half-brother, so unless they pulled a Willowpelt and Patchpelt, him being the father of her kits doesn't seem very likely.

I think it's Redtail again. He fathered Brindleface's first litter, after all.

Id like thinking it was Darkstripe or Whitestorm. Maybe Redtail.

I like to think the father was Runningwind. He's old enough when Ash and Fern were born, and we have Brindleface hooking up with some cat to make her feel something again after Redtail's death.

Whitestorm seems the most likely, but then, he and Willowpelt are mates. Although Willowpelt had other mates (that were pretty dumb to begin with. Seriously, Patchpelt? Tawnyspots?) so I suppose it's possible. Most likely, I'd like to think its Runningwind cause he never fathered kits
