History Fanfic / WarriorsRewrite

* ApatheicPet: Rusty. It's mentioned that he JumpedAtTheCall to [[APetIntoTheWild become a forest cat]] because he always felt uncomfortable being around humans and being a housepet.

** Redtail [[PlotTriggeringDeath died in the prologue]] to the series. Here, he's a reoccuring character.

* AdaptationalDiversity: The Erins aren't allowed to have explicitly gay characters, though they've still [[HideYourLesbians written a few in]] anyway. ''Warriors Rewrite'' does away with this by introducing same-gender romances and even a few {{transgender}} cats (including the protagonist Fireheart). It also includes more disabled and mixed-Clan characters.

* {{Transgender}}:
** Fireheart is a transgender tom who transitioned as a kit.
** Redtail is transgender, explaining how he's a tortoiseshell tom.

* ShoutOut: Ravenpaw's full name is shared with ''Fanfic/WarriorsRedux'': [[spoiler:Raventhroat]].

* AdaptationalRelationshipOverhaul: Brindleface is Sandstorm's aunt, not her mother.

** Several warriors are changed into "caretakers" (cats who help queens and cats in general).

** [[spoiler:Ravenpaw]] is made into a caretaker.

** Medicinecats are now "healers".

* MentorInQueerness: Firepaw is trans, as is Redtail. As a result, Redtail offers to be there for advice.

** Brindleface is most remembered for being a PregnantBadass and ActionMom. In ''Warriors Rewrite'', she spends most of her screentime as Firepaw's mentor, gives birth, [[spoiler:and is murdered less than a day later]].

* PrecisionFStrike: Loudbelly calls Brokentail a "sick piece of fox-dung" for making his [[ChildSoldiers 4-moon old daughter into an apprentice]].

** Lionheart is Sandstorm's father. This makes Sandstorm the older sister of Brackenfur, Cinderpelt, Thornclaw, and Brightheart.

** Firestar is a dark red tabby rather than a red solid.

** Instead of being an red tabby like Crookedstar, Stormstar is a dappled grey.

* DemotedToExtra: Ravenpaw has less screentime in ''Entee the Wild'' and is not as close to Graypaw and Firepaw as he is in canon.
