Do you think Rootpaw will be a tom cat or a she-cat? Of course we have no information on them to make an accurate guess so this is more "which gender do you arbitrarily hope they are" xD (it's late and I'm so bored)
I am #teamtomcat.
(Context for those out of the loop -- Kate accidentally spilled the beans that there would be a character named Rootpaw in the next arc. She meant to put "Alderheart" in her comment but "Rootpaw" slipped out instead. I'm just assuming they'll be a POV character for them to be on the forefront of Kate's mind like that, but who knows! :-P )
Legend says those who guess correctly will get a cookie when Lost Stars is published 🍪 . . .

I honestly don't care which gender Rootpaw is all that much, but I'm honestly hoping for a tom. Here's to hoping Rootpaw is on the TST cover

I want it to be a tom, but it’s probably going to be a she-cat.

I've wanted to see a tom-tom litter get the spotlight for awhile now, so I'm hoping that Rootpaw is a tom with a brother.

My guess is on a she-cat. So far for POVs (while not counting super editions or guide books), we've had... TPB: Firestar (M) TNP: Squirrelflight (F), Leafpool (F), Bramblestar (M), Stormfur (M) PO3: Hollyleaf (F), Lionblaze (M), Jayfeather (M) OOTS: Ivypool (F), Dovewing (F), Lionblaze (M), Jayfeather (M) AVOS: Alderheart (M), Twigbranch (F), Violetshine (F) So 8 toms and 7 she-cat POVs! Whoever it is, I hope it's a cat who doesn't have siblings, though. All the POVs, even Firestar's, have littermates, and if we do get either/both POVs from TigerDove or IvyFern kits, it'd be the same thing. An only daughter could be nice in a Firestar-esque type way with a she-cat. God knows I'm just praying that Rootpaw isn't (god forbid) the kit of TwigFin or (double god forbid) AlderVelvet. ...And please don't let their warrior name be something like Roottree (connection to Tree, if they're related? ) or or something dumb like Twigbranch's lol

I think rootpaw will be a violetxtree kit, mainly because of that part of TRS when pebbleshine comes down from cat heaven to tell violetshine she's pregnant, which makes me think they put a focus on it instead of just having violetshine pop out a few kits between books as usual.
As for whether I think it'll be a tom or she cat, I have no idea, but I think I'd prefer a tom as an only kit or a tom in an all-tom litter. We've had mixed gender litters and a couple all-she cat litters, but the only all-tom litter for main characters I can remember is Grey Wing and Clear Sky (and Jagged Peak). Also really hoping for a pov outside of thunderclan or for thunderclan to be the antagonists, as unlikely as it is

So I definitely want a little girl, and like you said an only child. I'm hoping the cat from the second cover is Rootpaw, because ever since I saw that that's what I'm imagining her like. I'm guessing there are going to be three point of views throughout the series. One from Shadowkit, one from Rootpaw (I'm assuming she's going to be from SkyClan), and then one from Ivypool's litter. I feel like Bristlekit could get a pov but it could be any of them really.

my honest guess is a girl, but i don't mind either way. i'd like a tortie main pov character instead of another brown/ginger tabby I so want a tortie POV character!

I feel like Bristlekit could get a pov but it could be any of them really. Oh, yeah! I knew I was forgetting something, but couldn't for the life of me remember...and of course it'd be something as big as a whole arc escaping my attention ;p I can dig the second idea with the cover! The cat looks so fierce, so if that's Rootpaw, I'll be pretty happy. With the potential POVs, I admit I'd rather not have them at all from TigerDove or IvyFern kits (despite me liking IvyFern), simply because they keep getting put into the spotlight. The chances of not getting neither litter's POVs are pretty low, however, so if we do get one/both, I won't be, like, off the chains fussed since I do already expect it. The only thing I'd probably prefer is that Pouncekit has the chapters for TigerDove's kits. I dunno why, but I like her attitude best out of all the kits. With IvyFern's kits...despite them being born a while ago, we haven't seen much of their personalities pretty much at all, so any of their POVs would be fine for me.

The Erins are so crazy with names these days that I wouldn't be surprised if a random kittypet just happens to stays for a while and/or joins the Clan that Rootpaw is in. When Rootpaw is introduced, the kittypet jokes at some point, "Oh! Like rootbeer?" because of course they'd somehow know what that is. The two cats bond and become best friends; double points if they're opposite genders and one has a crush on the other/cats remark on how cute they'd be together. Then the kittypet dies somehow, and Rootpaw's full name because Rootbeer in honor of them as remembrance to their first meeting lololol Just writing that out hurts.

Rootpaw sounds more masculine than the other way around in my opinion, so team tom for me
