Graystripe

Graystripe is one of the characters in the Warriors Series. Some very bad fanart of him was posted on the DeviantART, which the Tumblr blog The Worst Warriors ^[2] posted and became popular around the Warriors Tumblr community. This inspired various fanart.

Starkits Prophecy

Starkit's Prophecy revolves around Starkit/Starpaw/Stargleam/Gleamstar/
Starstar. Gleamstar is depicted as a purple cat with rainbow eyes and a star on her head, much different from the normal cat colors of the book. She is the focus of a prophecy, which states that "Out of the darkness, stars will come and get rid of the evil tiger and holly". The story breaks almost all laws of canon, has terrible grammar, and has very absurd topics, which has led to an immense amount of mocking of the fanfic.

Bad Fanart

The Warriors fandom has a large amount of bad fanart, most of which is frequently posted on Deviantart ^[3]. Many people mock the fanart, and purposely drawing bad fanart as a joke is common. Bad fanart is usually created by young or inexperienced artists who had recently discovered the Warriors online community.
