Volume 5 cast references —— Characters will change over the course of the story, which is why references are broken down into different volumes. Wouldn’t want someone who’s only read up to chapter 25 to get suddenly spoiled with seeing Pepperkit with his eyes open and the like. —— The character’s current name is shown, the clan(s) they identify with, their role (such as “kit”, healer, “warrior”, or “leader”), the pronouns they use, and their sexuality. Everything stated is what the characters would answer if you asked them. For instance, if a cat was kicked out of Skyclan, but they still felt like they were apart of Skyclan, then they would likely have “Skyclan” on their ref, even if they aren’t technically in Skyclan. This goes for pronouns and sexuality as well. The characters themselves may not know right now, or their answer could change over time as they come to understand themselves more. A character could also be hiding something if they wanted to. For example, if a character knew they were gay, but weren’t out yet and wouldn’t want to tell an interview that, then they likely would answer “straight”, which is what would appear on their refs. This is to help avoid spoilers. Hopefully that makes sense :’) —— Characters have eyelashes regardless of gender.
