Firestar's (Genetically Realistic) Family Tree [CC]
Ойын-сауық
Jesus christ I keep forgetting she's Squirrelstar now.
I choose the phrase "realistic" over "accurate" in the title for a handful of reasons that I'm having a hard time articulating... It feels weird to say "accurate" about a bunch of fictional characters who 1) don't exist, 2) are being edited from their book canon, and 3) have multiple ways to interpret their genetics. And 4) we don't even know how cat eye color genes work, this shit ain't "accurate" LOL.
I'm a very pedantic person, if that wasn't obvious.
Anyway, I hope that any of my insane ramblings (here or in the video) make sense :)

YES! As a genetics and warrior cats nerd, I have two sets of designs I draw for my favorite characters. One design is more realistic to cat genetics (while still keeping as close to book design), and the other is just what I like to see that character as for fun! My “genetics” design often is closer to the book description than my “fun” one! All in all, these are fictional cats, I’m gonna color them whatever color I want!

Yessss finally, someone else who’s making a Somali Firestar, I always thought that Firestar was a Somali cat because it made so much sense in my mind and was utterly disappointed to see that he officially was just a ginger cat.
You: * saying complicated genes stuff* Me: “yeah I totally understand what they are talking about”
Imagine being me rn. I got too curious, so I skipped to the end (keep in mind I haven't read much of warriors), and I just see Lord Farquaad in one of the spots, and now I am cackling uncontrollably
Tigerstar. TIGERSTAR! You already have Tigerheartstar.
What a breath of fresh air! No hate to other people who have reworked the genetics on Firestar's family tree, but making him a ruddy tabby is such a simple and effective solution. And Sandstorm as a fawn tabby? Beautiful. Ivypool x Fernsong seems like a challenge, maybe I'll mess around with that later.
This is so awesome!! I love cat genetics and Warriors so much- after seeing this, I went back and watched your whole cat genetics series, lol. Another cool idea for Firestar could be amber/russet/carnelian! He could start as the brown cat he’d be if Jake was orange, maybe looking a bit like fire, enough for Bluestar to take him in… but by the time he actually becomes Firestar, he looks completely like a flame-colored cat. Because we know essentially nothing about Jake and Nutmeg, they could absolutely have the right recessives for it, too!

How many times have you rewatched this video? ... yes... I just love how you make the family tree, and I started making a cat oc family tree in a similar fashion. Just using generators where I don't have design ideas, and then looking through the family to see where the genetics could come from. I ended up with the first mink in the family thanks to generators and her parents carrying each point trait she needed. Also, I found out Somali and Abyssinian seem to be fairly similar, aside from Somali being longhair and Abyssinian being shorthair So the start of my cat oc family tree is someone's purebred Abyssinian who got loose and some tom got her pregnant. I'm having alot of fun mapping these genetics, as you can probably tell by my comment and the repeated replaying of this video
Leafpool turned out so good
As someone who only really knows the basic color genes but is still really passionate about cat genetics, this is the best video ever. It's very rare to find info about cat genetics that's accurate, interesting, and easy to follow at the same time
Cloudtails dad being Lord Farquaad is now my new favorite thing
I know a big fat nothing about Warrior Cats, I'm here just for the fun genetics talk and the cute kitty drawings. I'd love to see more!
On the warrior wiki, Oliver(Cloudtail's dad) is shown to be an all-white tom. His littermates are Nami: brown and white Livy: white and brown Taylor: gray(?) and white Zack: white and light gray(?) That would be a nice little backstory for the Erins to drop. Or someone to write about.
This is so much fun! The Farquaad shenanigans are top-tier. I also like your take on Lionblaze-personally, I’m a fan of (black) golden, since many of my favorite designs for him have black stripes. Or I heard it’s called sunshine now? It’s breed-specific to Siberians, but hey, this is fantasy genetics anyway (I am also taking the free excuse to encourage folks to look up bimetallic siberians. No, that’s not a tortie! It just interacts weirdly with silver)

Forgive me if I'm wrong - Turner's syndrome is X monosomy, right? I'm no expert, but I did some cursory searching... All quotes below are from "Genetic disorders of sex development in cats: An update" (2020) by Szczerbal I. & Switonski M., to the journal "Animal Reproduction Science." "The X monosomy condition is rarely diagnosed in cats. A new case was recently reported by Szczerbal et al., 2015a in a female cat with masculinized external genitalia composed of a rudimentary penis and a scrotum-like structure without gonads. This was a surprising observation because the X monosomy is usually associated with infantile female genitalia. There, however, has been a report of enlarged clitorides in four of 181 human patients with Turner syndrome (Ranganath and Rajangam, 2012)." "The feline PAR is much longer (6.7 Mb) than the human PAR1 (2.7 Mb, in the short arm of the X) and PAR2 (0.32 Mb in the long arm of X), and equine PAR (1.8 Mb). It can thus be anticipated that the prevalence of X monosomy would be less in live born cats, due to embryonic loss." Very interesting! Thanks for bringing this up. I'd love to hear any info you have too, if you're comfortable sharing. And thank you for the compliments :3

@@littlehungrywarrior yeah it does, i always appreciate when people put extra care into their subtitles
this might just be my new favourite genetically accurate warriors video since you don't really change anything, you just make it make sense
This popping up in my recommended tap 3 weeks after posting date, and literal years after I searched anything anywhere on the Internet about warriors... I'll never escape. Banger video btw I watched the whole thing
punnet squares help a lot with things like this
Iam glad to get a possible theory on how Rustystar could maintain his appearance genetically, as pretty much every other genetically accurate warriors video has him as a brown tabby. I mean the entire Prophecy is about him being orange. Of course the Erin's kinda throw a monkey wrench into things in Pinestar's Choice, revealing that Jake's parents are crystal, a ginger She-cat with white spotting and mocha, a brown tom. I like you're theory better though.
I this’ll sound silly, but I love that you can tell how much you like this subject through voiceover alone. This has actually been the most helpful and interesting video on the subject of cat genetics that I’ve watched. Honestly love the non-linear approach to talking about the family tree.
I remember back when I was a kid thinking that Bluestar’s family is cursed, because they keep dying throughout the books. Any time the Erins needed to kill a cat to show how dangerous life in the woods is, it’s a descendant of Bluestar or Snowfur (forgot their mom’s name lol.
Damn this plopped up randomly in my recommendations and I am not even a big warriors fan anymore, but I find genetics so fascinating. I still don't know too much about it, but while my best friend for example feels like, listening to genetics and realism throws away the fun of designing a character, I must say designing one while falling under the rules of genetics can be so much fun and it is like playing a puzzle game. Maybe I will look more into genetics of animals cause of this video, thank you! Also, I'd be really thrilled to see another video with Bluestars or Tigerstars family tree as you said! Keep up the amazing work, but take your time with it
bluestar’s family tree is really interesting!! even looking at goosefeather + moonflower, that shit is super cool! big ups on that idea :))
This video is so informative and well put together, it’s just a joy to watch. Normally I don’t really enjoy these types of videos as I feel that they often sacrifice the vision of the character so I love how you managed to stay pretty true to the books. New sub!
I think you should do Tigerstar next because Tigerheart is his grandson and Bramblestar is his son so you would just be adding to the family tree(and you could totally keep it separate too). I mostly want to see if Tigerstars genetics are possible considering his mom is a black shorthair. If toms can only inherit their color from their mom what happened if a brown she-cat and a black tom mate?

Thank you! "Toms only inherit their color from their mom" is oversimplified shorthand ppl came up with to help them remember that ginger is sex-linked. Trying to use that "rule" w/a brown molly & a black tom would be like saying "I before E except after C" about Russian. I have an educational series on cat genetics. If you want to know what that phrase ACTUALLY means, I recc watching the ginger episode - or, to answer your question about that specific pairing, the tabby episode :3
This video is so fun. Watching you figure out ways to keep everyone so canon accurate but also genetically accurate was really interesting!
My favorite personal challenge is to make the Three genetically possible through both Squirrel x Bramble and Leaf x Crow. Not that it really matters because the Clans don't care what they look like.. but still, it's fun. I would LOVE to see what crazy things you have in mind for Hawkfrost. Thank you for this video, as a genetically accurate warriors enthuiast, I was impressed by how little you had to alter anyone's designs. I learned a lot. Thank you :D

Oh that'd be fun!! Let's see... SF got all the same fawn-causing heterozygous-ness as LP, and BS can be carrying mc easily, so Lionblaze is a cakewalk _if_ BS can get b1 from somewhere - which he can! I have plans for Tigerstar ( ;) ) but Goldenflower could have it. He can also carry dilution easily so that's JF taken care of, and nonagouti, so that's HL too. And he's longhair, so that's actually easier than CF/LP for the longhair kiddos LOL. so I think all it'd take to make them work for BS/SF too is if Goldenflower gives her boi a b1 :D I swear the next family tree video is going to be 3 hours, and 2.5 of it are going to be Hawkfrost & Mothwing.

This is the best genetically realistic warrior cats video I've ever seen! Maybe you could do Tawnpelt's family tree next, I think that might be interesting.

COMIN IN WITH THE STEEL CHAIR IT'S JAKE! Is basically the story of warriors
26:24 ALDERHEART NOOOOOOOOO 🪦
I love your commentary. You have such a fun way of talking.
that moment I heard: with the steal chair, I knew I was in for a good ride. i'm not even in the fandom i just find people trying to thise type genetric trees fun.
PLEASE DO ANOTHER VIDEO LIKE THIS!! I LOVED it! I learned all of my current knowledge of cat genetics from you!
i read the warrior cats series back in the day, growing out of it when the whole lionheart magical starclan stuff kicked in, and it’s been a good while. I recognise about half of these characters. This was very fun to watch! And educational! Thank you :)
18:58 nah dw same for me. In earlier fandom days most brighthearts were green eyed! Idk when they became blue fandomwide lol… (Needless to say because of this I give my brightheart design turquoise eyes)
Honestly I think this is by far my favorite warrior cat genetic video I’ve seen! I really hope you do more of these!!
I JUST NOE FOUND OUT SOURGE IS RELATED TO FIRE STAR AND I THOUGHT I WOULE KNOW THAT AS HES ME FAV
I'm not entirely sure how I ended up on warrior cats family tree genetics video, especially considering that I haven't consumed any piece of Warriors media in over a decade. Regardless this was a fascinating video and has got me thinking I should pick the series up again.
Amazing video, I would ask for a Tigerstar family tree but there is one family tree I super care about and it's Brindleface's, which would eventually include Birchfall. Ifnyou do the Tigerstar one tho I might ask, could you mention the fact that Redtail, Spottedleaf and Willowpelt are his aunts/uncles? They're the younger siblings of his mom Leopardfoot (there's also Patchpelt but nobody cares about Patchpelt)

I plan on covering both bluestar and dust/fern, tho I'm not sure if I'll split them up into two trees yet. either one could end up including brindleface so she's almost guaranteed to show up eventually :3 Also oh man I forgot that they were related like that. I don't plan on including them since that's altogether Too Many Cats for me to cover in one sitting, but maybe I'll get to them later...? I'll look into it!
good on you for not only the CC but putting it in the title. real cool :-]
I need this video injected directly into my bloodstream your jokes are too good my ass is gonna be quoting this for MONTHS
Please continue this trend! I absolutely adored it!

This was so much fun! You are by far the most knowledgeable person I’ve seen do this, which means you have more tools and tricks to make the characters look as much like their canon selves as possible. The back and forth up and down the family tree was also lots of fun, like a little puzzle, and you do a great job explaining and rehashing everything. I’m looking forward to the next one - whenever it comes out in the future. Tigerstar’s should logically be next, but I do hope you get around to Bluestar’s at some point.
Me personally I would love to see Tigerstars family tree or either blue star it doesn't matter I just think tiger Stars family tree is very interesting and really fun!
Absolutely love this video! I’m a cat genetics nerd and I spent so much time researching all I could find, until recently when I ran out of cat genetics to research! This is quality content I want to see more of!
I absolutely love your character design, especially in terms of lineart/ faces! You make characters look related while still being unique and recognizable, which is hard to do imo
