Mapleshade- A Full Opinion by Frostwhisper

Art by th1stlew1ng

Frostwhisper analyses Mapleshade – what do you think of her?

So. Let’s do this.
Mapleshade. A Dark Forest warrior.
IF you don’t know Mapleshade, then you are like “omg she’s sooo evil!!!” or you’re like “what’s the Dark Forest?” If you are asking any of those questions, read something else. This is way ahead of your Warrior Cats knowledge.

On one paw, she is BAD. She’s a BAD CAT, Appledusk, Frecklewish, and Ravenwing did NOT deserve to die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the horrible stuff when she’s in the Dark Forest!

On the other paw, she was having hallucinations. Her kits just died. She was exiled from her Clan for pretty much nothing. Appledusk cheated, Frecklewish ignored drowning kits, and Ravenwing caused exile! Seriously, Mapleshade is NOT EVIL!

But-but-but-but! You can’t deny that horrid stuff she did in the Dark Forest, Mapleshade supporters! Honest to StarClan, she killed even after death, even after the hallucinations stopped yowling to be “set free”. And I think that she’d mainly want revenge against Reedshine and Oakstar, because she didn’t kill them before she died, but nooooo. She had to have a grudge against the all the Clans because of a dumb prejudice against cats that are dead anyway! This scheming, horrifying cat is nothing short of EVIL.

If you still think otherwise, that what excuse is running around your head? “It’s not her fault, her kits died, naturally she’d want revenge.” Well if YOU were Mapleshade, and you wanted revenge, would you seriously act that far? Revenge for a human would be humiliation or a mean prank, but she went and gave these cats, horrible, painful deaths.
I’m not saying that Appledusk, Frecklewish, and Ravenwing were goody-goodies who were perfect and never hurt anyone. They did horrible things that led Mapleshade to the insecurity and insanity she holds today. Yet, would you think that watching someone’s kits die, and not helping because you would just get in the way would not exactly measure up to the revenge level that brings someone to kill. Neither does getting someone exiled because you feel obliged to the Clan(Ravenwing) but it gets closer then the one prior to this one. And cheating… I mean, if someone cheated on me, I would be so mad and punch them at every opportunity. But… killing is too far.

In conclusion, I don’t support Mapleshade anymore. My mind was changed upon discovering all of this information. I think that your mind will be changed too. If you still support Mapleshade, even after this very mean article about her, then keep right on supporting her. Nobody will ever change your mind.

Frostwhisper out!

  • Honestly I think it’s a matter of perspective. Mapleshade’s kits had just died, she had been exiled, found out her mate had cheated on her etc. Appledusk was probably at least a bit upset about his kits death and blamed it on Mapleshade. He didn’t want to admit to her being his mate, bc he didn’t love her anymore and had a proper mate. Raven wing thought she was doing the right thing. Oakstar was…angry? Sorry justification for sending kits out in a terrible storm to probably die.

    Also:
    Frecklewish is innocent! She might not have seen the kits, or heard them drowning. And even if she did she was a poor swimmer and would have drowned as well. Saying that even if she had known they were there, u would be asking her to commit suicide, wit( the result being all of their deaths. Maybe she did call for help but Mapleshade didn’t hear. The River was roaring, it was bucketing rain, and it was deafening. It was Mapleshade’s fault her kids died, and she deflected the blame onto Frecklewish, bc she couldn’t bea4 the thought of it being her fault

  • I am still supporting Mapleshade and you can’t do anything about it!!!!! She did go a bit too far but she did have a point!!!!! Sorry if I sounded rude but I still support her!!!! And your right that nobody will ever change my mind because I am a loyal Mapleshade fan!!!!

    • A BIT!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!!??!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!?!??!?!!?!?!?!!!?!?!!?!! ALSO YOU FORGOT POOR CROCKEDSTORM

  • MAPLESHADE FOREVER!!!! I WILL NEVER STOP SUPPORTING HER!!!!!

  • Warriors needs more female villains! We only have sleekwhisker and mapleshade!

  • nice article but i slightly disagree. I believe she was driven insane from the tragedies that occured in her lifetime. She had been exiled, her kits, the cats she risked her life for, had died in front of her eyes, and her mate, the cat she loved and the only cat she believed to be her friend blamed her for her kits deaths (whom she was still grieving) and was cheating on her. She has a right to be angry. So blah blah she killed cats and went to the dark forest Though doesn’t the dark forest make cats more cruel than they already are? She had been in the dark forest for YEARS, resulting in her being driven to madness and only having one thing on her mind- murder. Am I disagreeing that she isn’t a good cat? No. What she did is inexcusable. But she still had a legitimate reason for wanting revenge.

  • continued) Shes still a well written villain and her novella is one of my favorites, because of her stubborn and hypocritical views. Stan mapleshade
