User:Brambleclawx/List of SkyClan cats

The following is one of several lists of characters in Warriors, a novel series written by Erin Hunter. This page is a list of cats who are a part of "SkyClan", as outlined in the allegiances section (character list) of the book(s).

SkyClan is the fifth Clan of the original forest territories, a fact that is unknown to all living Clan cats except for Firestar and Sandstorm. Their territory used to be located where the Twolegplace (the cats' word for town or city) of Firestar's birth currently sits, and they have the unique ability to jump onto branches of trees, a technique that has been passed on to some kittypets and rogues in the rocky canyon. SkyClan were driven out when their part of the forest was excavated to create a Twolegplace (town). SkyClan appealed to the other Clans for help, but none of them wanted to redivide their territory and as such, SkyClan was forced to leave the forest. Birdflight (Cloudstar,a former SkyClan leaders, mate) stayed with ThunderClan with her two kits, Spottedpelt and Gorseclaw, as they were too young to travel. This caused some of ThunderClan's current cats to have SkyClan blood. The rest of SkyClan traveled north along the river before finally settling in a rocky canyon. Before long, however, an intelligent rat pack attacked and killed most of the Clan, forcing the remnants to scatter across the nearby forest and Twolegplaces.[1]

Modern SkyClan was reformed when Firestar set out to reunite the lost descendants of the Clan during Firestar's Quest throughout the nearby area. Having drove off the rat pack, SkyClan currently lives at peace.[1] They also appear in SkyClan's Destiny which tells about them after they were reunited and Firestar and Sandstorm had left.[2]

Current SkyClan

edit

Cherrytail

edit

A small tortoiseshell and white she-cat, Cherrytail was a former kittypet named Cherry, and teased Skywatcher for his strange behaviors, but later learns she is a SkyClan cat and becomes Cherrypaw, mentored by Sharpclaw. At the end of Firestar's Quest she receives her warrior name, and mentors Rockshade. She is the sister of Sparrowpelt. She is very brave, excitable, and lively.

Petalnose

edit

A very pale gray--almost white--she-cat with blue eyes, Petalnose was a former kittypet named Petal who was rescued by Firestar, Sandstorm, and SkyClan from an abusive Twoleg. Her mate is Rainfur, who died in the battle with the rats, and her two kits are Mintkit and Sagekit. After she was rescued she decided to stay in SkyClan with her mate and serve as a warrior once her kits were ready to be apprenticed, though her mate died shortly after in the battle against the rats. [1]

Echosong

edit

A silver-gray tabby she-cat with tiny dark gray paws and green eyes and a white chest and a fluffy tail, Echosong was a former kittypet named Echo with no trace of SkyClan characteristics, but was given the role of SkyClan's medicine cat after she began to have dreams of the ancient SkyClan and StarClan. At first she was unsure of interpreting dreams from her warrior ancestors, but later grew into her role as a medicine cat. Later, Fawnstep, the medicine cat of SkyClan at the time of its exile, said she would be sharing dreams with her, implying that Fawnstep would be Echosong's mentor, in the way that Leafpool was Willowshine's mentor when Mothwing could not teach her about StarClan.[1]

Leafstar

edit

Leafstar, a brown and cream tabby she-cat with amber eyes, was a rogue named Leaf before she came to SkyClan. After she joined, Firestar gave her the warrior name of Leafdapple, and she mentored Sparrowpelt. StarClan later chose Leafdapple to be leader because of her thoughtful personality and understanding of the warrior code. Firestar at first doesn't feel comfortable with her being the leader, but he realizes how perceptive she is when she tells him that she knows his first loyalty is to his own Clan at home. During her leader ceremony, the ancient leaders of the four Clans come together to give her four of her nine lives as an apology to SkyClan for driving them out. Leafstar is also in love with Billystorm, a daylight-warrior, and they became mates. They have Firekit (named after Firestar), Stormkit (named after Sandstorm), and Harrykit (named after Sol's kittypet's name, Harry).

Patchfoot

edit

A black-and-white tom with green eyes, Patchfoot was formerly a rogue named Patch. Due to a rat attack, his shoulder was injured. When he recovered, thanks to Spottedleaf showing Sandstorm and Firestar how to treat rat bites with burdock root, Patchfoot joined the fight against the rats. At the end of Firestar's Quest, he mentors Bouncepaw, who later turns into Bouncefire.[1] In SkyClan's Destiny, Clovertail is expecting his kits.[2]

Skywatcher

edit

A scarred, very old, dark gray tom with matted fur and pale blue eyes, Skywatcher was also known as Moony. Skywatcher was an old cat who was the last true warrior of SkyClan, named Sky, until Firestar and Sandstorm rebuilt SkyClan. He was the one to show them around SkyClan territory. He died in his sleep, but Firestar believes that he wanted to live to see SkyClan rebuilt. He returns to give Leafstar one of her nine lives and he is also the cat to inform Firestar of the Power of Three prophecy: "There will be three, kin of your kin, who hold the power of the stars in their paws."[1][3]

Sharpclaw

edit

A dark ginger tabby tom with broad shoulders and green eyes. Sharpclaw was first a rogue named Scratch. After he joined SkyClan he received his warrior name Sharpclaw.

Rainfur

edit

A light gray tom with dark gray flecks, Rainfur was formerly a rogue. At first, he didn't want to join SkyClan but later was forced to ask for the Clan's help to rescue his mate, Petal, from her cruel Twoleg owner. In the end, he decided to join SkyClan but was killed in the battle against the rats. He appeared in Leafstar's leader ceremony to reassure Firestar that his death wasn't his fault. He is also the father of Mintpaw and Sagepaw.[1]

Clovertail

edit

A light brown she-cat with a white belly and legs and green eyes, Clovertail was formerly a loner named Clover. She first met Firestar and Sandstorm while defending her kits against a fox. Afterwards, she joins SkyClan, but initially only for protection. In the end, her loyalty for SkyClan is proven when she fought in the battle against the rats. Apparently, she is partly descended from RiverClan, given that she is an avid swimmer and the fact that Firestar saw that Birchstar and Heavystep looked very much like Clovertail at Leafstar's leader ceremony. She is the mother of Rockshade, Bouncefire, and Tinycloud. She is now expecting Patchfoot's kits.[1]

Rockshade

edit
