Zombie Cat
A companion comic to A Rocky Foundation
Characters:
Smokepaw: Smokepaw was once a handsome black kit with green eys, but after a certain...incident (no spoilers!) his fur gradually paled to sickly colors and his green eyes turned an icky shade of yellow. He's a pretty positive cat, but can have his tantrums just like all young cats. Blackstar is his hero and Tawneypelt is his largest pet peeve. Well, all shall be revealed through the comic, but Smokepaw is a zombie of sorts. As with being a zombie comes the disadvantages (extremely flammable, rotting limbs, discoloration, ect.) but also the pros (endless endurance, removable and re-attachable limbs, ect). To say the least Smokepaw is pretty content with being a zombie, that is, until the loners move in. Suddenly Smokepaw, who already had trouble fitting in as it was, is faced with something that scares/angers him more than even Tawnypelt could!
Tawneypelt: You all remember this tortie. The sweet, but serious sister of Brambleclaw? Well, if there was no Brambleclaw, would she be the same? No. Why? Because Tigerstar's attention would be solely on her, that's why! Meet the new Tawney, a mean, cranky, ambitious she-cat with serious moodiness issues. She's ready to beat up any tom who even looks the wrong way at her leader and pummel any snotty kit (smokepaw) who dares smell up her den with that icky rotting limb smell.
Blackstar: A white tom with black paws and green eyes. He's... very hard to describe. Take a look at "A Rocky Foundation" to get to know him better.
Oakfur: A stocky brown tom. He's a small, but an experienced (and old) warrior. He's got his quirks, but is in a nutshell, that gruff army veteran type of guy. He's Smokepaw's mentor, and was Tawneypelt's mentor previously (poor guy he gets all the crazy cats to train).
Littlecloud: A brown tabby tom with blue eyes. He's nice, and well, a lot like how he is in the books, with the exception that he's often needing to find time in his day to sew Smokepaw back together. This can tire him out so he will sometimes seem deprived of energy.
Talonpaw: a grey tabby tom with yellow eyes and dark paws. He's a spunky tom and likes to tease Smokepaw. He's a little lazy and conceited. Nonetheless they are best friends.
Quillpaw: a russet and brown mottled she-cat with light green eyes and slightly spiky fur. Her tail looks a little like a squirrel's. She's utterly terrified of Smokepaw.
Rowanclaw: a dark ginger tabby tom with green eyes. He's friendly, wise, and the model of an ideal warrior. However, he gets pushed around easily by Tawnypelt. He's friends with the other mentors: Cedarheart and Oakfur. He's the oddball out of them though since he's so normal. Yet, he gets along with them fine.
Russetfur: A thin dark ginger she-cat with dark green eyes. She's a demon when you're her enemy and she has very strong points of view. However, she's also a bit organized oriented. As deputy she'll sometimes act more like Blackstar's secretary than a warrior. She's got a secret crush on him, but he's shown no interest.
Cedarheart: A dark grey tom with amber eyes. He's muscular, loud, and has a speech impediment from all the shouting he does. His opinions are very intense. He was mentored by Russetfur, and is now the mentor to Quillpaw.
Nightwing: A slender black she-cat with dark blue eyes. She once was a great warrior, but ever since Smokepaw's fur began to change color as a kit and his episode with cannibalism, she hasn't been quite right in the head. She's become paranoid and jumpy, especially around her son. Sometimes she enters episodes of paralyzed fear and temporary insanity, which Littlecloud kindly calls her 'in need of cheering up'. These episodes are rare, but when they do happen, she spends it in the Med Den, instead of the warriors. Blackstar is considering the idea of retiring her as an elder, but she's still young and pretty fit when she's not in an episode, so he's reluctant to do so. Her mate was Duskclaw, a grey and black tortie, but he died in a fire. This has left her with an extreme fear of fire.
The Comic:
Oakfur is pleased.
Some funny badges I doodled. Link
At beginning of page: Talonpaw: And Zombie Cat is gaining on Tawny with an impressive score of 15 to 26!
At end of page: Talonpaw: Uh... nope it's Zero to 26 again.
For those who've just lost respect for Smokepaw, forgive him. Blackstar just has this kind of effect on people.
Oh! and that secretary like she-cat is the deputy, Russetfur.
See Nightwing's description if you have no idea what just happened.

If you can name the previous comic in ARF that featured Rowanclaw. I'll give you major props. His design has been partly changed, but it's still him.
