Ivypaw or Dovepaw?

For a long while have we been wondering who the Fourth Apprentice might be. Evidence supports the two siblings, Ivypaw and Dovepaw more then it does Breezepelt. (I believe the Erins even denied that Breezepelt was the Fourth Apprentice.) Which of the two is the apprentice with amazing abilities unmatched by any other?

Mistypelt discovered the cat on Fading Echoes is meant to be Ivypaw. However, the cat on the Fourth Apprentice is meant to be Dovepaw. So equally matched? Perhaps... It could mean the first book centers on Dovepaw--who may be the Fourth Apprentice. Then again, it could also mean Dovepaw dies allowing Ivypaw to unlock great power.

My theory is this... Ivypaw is named after Vicky's niece, Ivy. Vicky wouldn't want to kill of her niece's own character, would she? Maybe Ivypaw is to be the Fourth Apprentice...

Or...perhaps Dovepaw is the Fourth Apprentice and Ivypaw is her loyal sister who supports her all the way. (thats a bit boring though, don't you think?)

Keep those theories coming! Perhaps we can guess what happens before the actual book comes out!

Take a look at the updated Fourth Apprentice cover I found. It now has text on it. "Adventure Game & Full-Color Map Inside!"

Author Chat Soon!

Kate (an Erin) has announced that there will be an author chat at wands and worlds soon! The members of Erin Hunter will be answering questions from readers! What questions do you want answered? Who's the Fourth Apprentice? Will Breezepaw have anything to do with the prophecy? What are the plans for Dovekit and Ivykit?

Hmm...I'll be sure to keep you updated with all the details!

On another note, the Erins reviled something very interesting...Ivykit is named after Vicky's niece, Ivy. So does that mean that Ivykit will be a main character since she's based one someone? After all, it wouldn't be very nice to kill off your niece's character. o.o

Who knows what the Erins have in store for us!

More Omen of the Stars Theories

Warning, Spoilers for Sunrise!

I just had a theory idea! In an author chat, Vicky (one of the Erins,) said that there would soon be an evil female character. When Hollyleaf turned bad, fans assumed that this was the female evil cat that Vicky was talking about. But there have been theories surfacing that either Ivykit or Dovekit could turn evil or twisted.

The description of The Fourth Apprentice states, "Soon one sister will have an ominous dream-and will soon realize she has mythical skills unmatched by any other cat." [About Ivykit and Dovekit]

Hmm...sounds like one sister will be getting magical skills possessed by the 'Three.' Could the other sister become jealous and follow Hollyleaf's footsteps? (Pawsteps?) Could the same ungifted sister choose to follow Tigerstar? After all, its been ages since we've had a real 'villain.'

Perhaps the other sister dies, releasing the full potential of the gifted sister's abilities. Maybe the ungifted sister is meant to be another Feathertail.

It seems unlikely that Erin will just let that other ungifted sister fade into the background. I think that there will be as much focus on the gifted sister as well as the ungifted sister.

What are YOUR thoughts?

Omen of the Stars... theory time!

We all love a good theory, right? Well Spottedstar gave me a great one yesterday!

Warning: Possible Spoilers for Omen of the Stars

Okay, so Spottedstar posted this;

"i just had an interesting theory. i think that well just say dovekit was part of the 3. once ivykit found out she would be jelous, kill her sister and become the 3rd cat herself. "

Maybe! It is rumored that the Omen of the Stars series will be darker then the Power of Three series. It will also be a direct continuation. Its just a point of view switch, but the main cats will stay the same. (with the addition of Ivy + Dove)

Maybe Ivykit is Hollyleaf reborn? Like Cinderpaw? I know it sounds farfetched, but maybe Hollyleaf was part of the prophecy all along...but just not in her first body...Crazy right? But hey, we've learned to expect the unexpected from Erin & co!

Dovekit does seem to be the main cat of the two. (I could be mistaken, but its Dovekit on the cover of the first Omen of the Stars book, The Fourth Apprentice.) Ivykit could become very jealous of living in her sister's shadow. Or perhaps one dies in an accident?

Maybe they both live...who knows? It seems a bit unlikely because only one of them COULD be the Fourth Apprentice. Unless they merge and stuff, but that would be kind of creepy.

o.0

Unfortunately no one has solid answers. (Except for those lucky enough to get their paws on the book before it comes out!) We'll have to wait a while longer for Erin to release more details. :(

Ivykit & Dovekit pictures!

The upcoming series, Omen of the Stars will star Ivykit and Dovekit, two ThunderClan kits. For fun, I decided to post pictures of what I think they look like...

More Omen of the Stars Theories...

Yesterday Silverstar posted a comment on my blog with a very interesting theory. I thought it was very possible so I decided to post it here with me replies/agreements/disagreements/more theories.

Warning, the following contains Spoilers for Omen of the Stars and Sunrise.

"Personally, I am kind of doubting that one of Whitewing's kits [Ivykit or Dovekit] will be the Fourth Apprentice.
I mean, first off, neither Whitewing nor Birchfall were main cats. And second, their kits are hardly related to Firestar. They are his great-grand-nieces."

You are correct, Birchfall and Whitewing were more of background Warriors in the series. Perhaps Birchfall and Whitewing are more important then Erin is letting on? Whitewing is Cloudtail and Brightheart's daughter--maybe Erin Hunter wanted to give Cloudtail's line some spotlight as well? *shrug*

"I'm thinking it would be more likely that [if Brambleclaw and Squirrelflight are still mates after the Sunrise incident], one of their kits would be the Fourth Apprentice, but that's just me."
That would be waaaaaaay more likely, I agree. I also think it would add a fantastic punch in the plot. Would Lion and Jay accept Squirrelflight's kit though? It must have been pretty shocking to find out that the cat you called mother is not your mother after all. I don't think Squirrelflight is the kind of cat that would enjoy sitting in the nursery with tiny kits crawling all over her. Then again, she didn't seem like the kind of cat to fall for Brambleclaw. (I was a bit surprised when BramblexSquirrel was introduced. I thought it would be StormxSquirrel.)

"I'm also still curious about something concerning Breezepelt though; In The New Prophecy, before Leafpool fell in love with Crowfeather, she felt a 'destiny' about him. Could that destiny be that he was the father of the Three, or now, the Four?
And, they made Breezepelt a main cat."
Crowfeather does have a destiny, perhaps it was to father the three, maybe its more that hasn't been reviled yet. Breezepelt isn't related to Firestar though (not that we know of)--and the prophecy was "there will be three kin of your kin." Erin has stated that the Fourth Apprentice would be revealed on the last page of Sunrise and she has also said that the Fourth Apprentice had not been born yet. (I'll have to find her author chat and post it here.) I do think Breezepelt will have a major part to play in this new series, since the books have been focusing on him so much.

"Just my little theory. I mean, not that long ago it was a 'fact' that Squirrelflight was the mother of The Three. They try to trick people."

Its a very good theory too! Good point, we'll have to keep our eyes open for any clues! Thanks for posting! :)

Spoilers for The Fourth Apprentice?

I've noticed that lots of people come to my blog looking for spoilers from The Fourth Apprentice. The book doesn't come out for a few months yet, and the lucky few people who have the book are probably sworn to secrecy.

More info on The Fourth Apprentice

Now that the Power of Three series has ended (with a rather shocking conclusion) we all want to know what The Fourth Apprentice has in store for us...

WARNING! SPOILERS FOR SUNRISE! AND THE ENTIRE POWER OF THREE SERIES!

Apparently the new book will center on Dovekit, the "fourth apprentice." The new point of view was realized on the last page of Sunrise, were Dovekit was revealed to be the daughter of Whitewing and Birchfall. Since Whitewing is the daughter of Cloudtail (Firestar's nephew)--Dovekit ties into the prophecy.

Dovekit is one of the "Three" as stated in the prophecy, "There will be Three kin of your kin who hold the power of the stars in their paws." Hollyleaf has nothing to do with this prophecy. (It was revealed in Sunrise that Hollyleaf murdered Ashfur, making her the 'evil one') The Omen of the Stars series will have six books. The first will be titled The Fourth Apprentice and the second is called Fading Echos. The Fourth Apprentice will be released on the 24th of November. The new series will also introduce Beavers who will be somewhat evil.

I'll keep you posted with the latest details!
