Doja Cat Joins Fortnite as ‘Mother of Thorns’ Boss – Where to Find Her

Epic Games has added a spooky twist to Fortnite this Halloween season by introducing Doja Cat as a new boss NPC in Fortnitemares 2025. She appears as the “Mother of Thorns,” bringing her dark and stylish vibe to Chapter 6 Season 4.

Where to Find Doja Cat in Fortnite

Doja Cat, also known as the Mother of Thorns, doesn’t stay in one place. She spawns randomly at one of three pumpkin-themed areas on the island:

• West of Supernova Academy

• Lower part of Gourdy Gate

• Beside the southern red barn in Freaky Fields

You’ll know she’s nearby when you see a boss icon on your minimap and hear eerie music. She usually sits on a throne made of thorns, marking her arrival.

How to Beat the Mother of Thorns

Fighting Doja Cat is no easy task. She’s strong and attracts many players trying to defeat her. Make sure to grab powerful weapons, stay at a safe distance, and attack carefully. Once you defeat her, you can revive her as an AI ally and earn the Thorn Ripper, a mythic weapon connected to the Fortnitemares questline.

Fortnitemares Quests and Rewards

The Mother of Thorns is part of three Fortnitemares challenges. Players must find and defeat her to complete these seasonal quests. Since her location changes each match, it’s smart to land near one of her possible spawn points early.

Doja Cat’s Reaction

After her in-game debut, Doja Cat wasn’t too happy with Fortnite’s social media promotion. She called one of the posts “cringe,” saying it didn’t match her artistic style or the mysterious theme of her character. Fans are now debating whether Epic Games promoted her character the right way or just used it for hype.

Overall, Doja Cat’s “Mother of Thorns” adds a stylish yet eerie twist to Fortnitemares 2025, making it one of the most talked-about events of the season.
