I take One Singular curse of the blind item late in the run and it's cursed eye

This is my least fave out of all the double-edged items I would literally rather have Bob's Brain (my least fave of the 'explode yourself' items)

I wish I had more to infodump but I do have two, I assume you are here for the TBoI-into-Warriors one, Warrior Guppy!

• Guppy is in place of Rusty, so the original prophecy has changed: A plague will save the clan. It appears as a buck that has the skull of a rival buck tangled in his antlers, peacefully grazing despite the obvious situation he had been through, having to have been so close to rot for so long and yet that is what saved him.

• They assume it is disease at first, but the actual plague is a plague of insects; once Guppy enters the forest, locusts start to slowly become more abundant, eating away the vegetation over time. This causes some major issues down the line, but also ends up helping Guppy defeat dangerous foes.

• Guppy, meanwhile, enters the forest because Isaac opens the window and puts Guppy out the window to save Guppy from his mom's wrath. Guppy does not fully understand this reasoning, but Does have a grasp on Christianity... Except this means Guppy has made a deal with the devil before in an attempt to keep his human safe (it did not work).

• Guppy is taken in by Bluestar after he shows her that, for a kitty pet, he is a rather good battler and hunter, managing to toss away Graypaw on his own. Later on he is accepted into the clan not because his collar snapped, but because when he got into a fight with Longtail he ends up Winning as he fights with a fury he didn't know he had in him. The clan all gasp and talk and Guppy looks down to see that the battle had traced a pentagram in the soil that has a red glow fading out. He fears for his life a moment, but it turns out the clan thinks that the glowing star is a sign from Starclan that he is chosen to be there.

• Guppy does Not correct them. This becomes something that happens worryingly often around Guppy and Guppy never does connect to Starclan. Starclan is aware of him and plan around his actions, and Guppy somehow manages to be a force of good, but Guppy ends up not believing in Starclan at all because of these incidents.

• Guppy is given the name Locustpaw because a locust lands on his ear when he is being named and it's taken as a sign that this should be his name, he likes the name. He later becomes Locustheart because I see the suffix Heart as 'despite all odds you have found your place'. Another possible name is Locustflight but I use Locustheart for the rest of this post.

• The Lamb and The Devil both appear in Locustheart's dreams, as a skeletal cat with ram horns and a black goat respectively. They at first seem well meaning, but Locustheart realizes later on that they had been luring him in to strike, resulting in a fight that has him wake up with injuries. That said, he Did win, and Locustheart ends up using this fight to seal the ability to have eternal life.

• Scourge is still the one that kills Tigerstar in this au, but the au goes fully off the rails during the Scourge fight, where Locuststar and Scourge end up rolling down a hill away from the fight and Scourge successfully guts Locuststar... Except Locuststar gets back up.

• Locuststar's full abilities are unlocked, allowing him to direct the locusts that have been helping him but plaguing the forest to attack both Scourge and all of blood clan, driving them away and slaying Scourge. He is able to use TBoI-like abilities (pulling power from his own misery which ends up making him stronger the more hopeless the situation but slowly corrupts Guppy towards demonhood) from here on out but he avoids doing so where others can see for what I hope are obvious reasons.

• Locuststar manages to get the wound closed and limp back to his clan to show that Scourge had been defeated, but the AU goes fully off track from the books from then on, as thunderclan is lead by a cat that is straight up undead and do not realize it for the first while because Locuststar keeps it hidden.

• Around the time that the clans are forced to move from the forest, Locuststar does make an attempt to sneak away from the clan to go back to the small house on a hill, but finds police lights there, Isaac's mom freaking out, and no sign of Isaac. He never goes back there afterwards.

It is unlikely for a 'kin of your kin' prophecy to appear in this universe as, due to Guppy's (un)death, several important cats from later books do not happen. Instead, Guppy ends up unintentionally passing the Curse to other cats to cause later generations of cats to gain similar abilities but have to fight against demons. I imagine Ivypool and Dovewing may still exist because they are not direct descendants of Guppy (possibly grandkids of one of the other two cats from TBoI, maybe Cricket) and thus they can still be forced into the spotlight, but as this AU is still developing I do have A Large Hole To Fill after the first arc because things Very go off the rails after the into the wild arc, you guys can give suggestions if you want.

This au has a target audience of, like, 2 friends, but I’ve been working on a crossover where Guppy is in place of Rusty… But is still very much a tboi character with a heavy association with bugs and demonic shenanigans.
