This article is about the characters from the fantasy novel Firestar's Quest by Erin Hunter. Ancient SkyClan (before Firestar's Quest) Secondary Characters Birdflight See the ThunderClan entry Buzzardtail Buzzardtail was a ginger tom with green eyes, and the SkyClan deputy. He is seen in Firestar's dream commanding the cats in the new territory, where he says "You know where to go" and that thought lingers in Firestar's mind even after the dream. Nothing else is known about him. Cloudstar Cloudstar was a small, sleek gray tom with white cloud-shaped splotches, and pale blue eyes. He was the SkyClan leader when they were driven out. He was seen in the prologue of Firestar's Quest, when he brought his whole Clan to a Gathering. He tried to get the other Clans to let SkyClan hunt in their territory, when Twolegs destroyed all of their territory, but the other four Clans refused, so Cloudstar led SkyClan away from the forest, saying that StarClan had betrayed him, and he would never look to the stars again. When Birdflight moves to ThunderClan with her kits, he says to her, "I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you forever." Towards the end of the book, when Leafstar receives her nine lives, the other leaders apologize to him, saying that there have always been five Clans and they shouldn't have driven SkyClan out. When Birdflight appears, he is very happy, and she tells him that her and her kits, Gorseclaw and Spottedpelt, have chosen to walk the skies above SkyClan in honor of their ancestors. *Mate: Birdflight *Kin: Spottedpelt, Gorseclaw (kits), Tigerstar, Spottedleaf, Brambleclaw, Tawnypelt, Hawkfrost, Mothwing, Lionpaw, Hollypaw, Jaypaw, Tawnypelt's unnamed kits (descendants) Fawnstep Fawnstep was a light brown tabby she-cat and the medicine cat of SkyClan. After Leafstar's ceremony, Fawnstep told Echosong that she would guide her. Fernpelt Fernpelt was a dark brown tabby she-cat and a warrior of SkyClan. Mousefang Mousefang was a sandy-colored she-cat and a warrior of SkyClan. Nightfur Nightfur was a black tom and a warrior of SkyClan. Oakpaw Oakpaw was a gray tabby and an apprentice of SkyClan. Modern SkyClan (Firestar's Quest) Main Characters Cherrytail Cherrytail is a tortoiseshell she-cat warrior of SkyClan. Once, she and her brother Sparrowpelt were kittypets, and often visited the gorge where they now live to mock Skywatcher, calling him "Moony" because of how watched the sky during a full moon. She later apologized for this after his death. When Firestar came to the gorge, he saw they had SkyClan blood and invited them into SkyClan. Though reluctant at first to leave her old owners, Cherrytail was very enthusiastic about being a Clan cat, and chose to join SkyClan. Sharpclaw was chosen to mentor her, and they both fought in the battle with the rats. Afterwards, Leafstar made her a warrior with the name of Cherrytail, and gave her Rockpaw to mentor. *Mentor: Sharpclaw *Apprentice: Rockpaw *Kin: Sparrowpelt (brother, formerly Boris) *Formerly Known As: Cherry (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest), Cherrypaw (Firestar's Quest) Echosong Echosong is a silver tabby she-cat with green eyes, and the medicine cat of SkyClan. Firestar is told by Skywatcher that there is a cat that has dreams of StarClan, and he chooses to go with Sparrowpelt into Twolegplace to find the cat. While there, he runs into Oscar and asks him if he had heard of any such cat. He dismisses the idea, but then Echosong appears and says she has dreams of cats with stars in their fur, and was told by a dark gray cat, revealed to by Skywatcher, to come to that spot to meet two strange cats. Knowing that Firestar and Sparrowpelt were who he meant, Echosong chooses to go back with Firestar and joins SkyClan, where she is named the medicine cat. Later, Echosong has a vision of leaves dappling the ground, and she interprets this to mean Leafstar should be the leader of SkyClan. *Mentor: Sandstorm, Fawnstep *Formerly Known As: Echo (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) Leafstar Leafstar is the current leader of SkyClan. She is a brown-and-cream tabby with amber eyes. She has a sensitive, docile personality. Before Firestar rebuilt SkyClan she was a rogue named Leaf. She was confronted by Firestar, Cherrytail, and Sparrowpelt to attend the meeting to rebuild SkyClan and ended up staying. Almost immediately she was given her warrior name, Leafdapple, and was also given Sparrowpelt to mentor. The medicine cat Echosong soon got a message from the ancestors that Leafstar was to be the leader of SkyClan, and she accepted her position. The nine cats that gave her the nine lives are: Cloudstar, who gave her the life of endurance to strengthen her Clan in times of trouble; Skywatcher, who gave her the life of hope to guide her Clan through the darkest days; Leafstar's mother, who gave her the life of love to give to all the cats that look to her for protection; Spottedleaf, who gave her the life of healing the wounds of words and rivalry to give to cats that are troubled in spirit; Redstar, who gave her the life of wisdom for when she has hard decisions to make; Birchstar, who gave her the life of sympathy and understanding to use for the weakest in her Clan and other that need her help and protection; Swiftstar, who gave her the life of selflessness to use in service of her Clan, Dawnstar gave her the life of determination to use to set her paws on that path to what she knows is right; and lastly, Birdflight, who gave her the life of faithfulness to hold fast to Clan and kin. As a leader, Leafstar made Sharpclaw her deputy, made Cherrypaw and Sparrowpaw into Cherrytail and Sparrowpelt, made Bouncekit, Rockkit, and Tinykit into Bouncepaw, Rockpaw, and Tinypaw. She thanks Firestar and Sandstorm, and promises them that their names will be remembered in SkyClan forever. She also confirms Echosong as her medicine cat. Afterwards, Sandstorm names one of her kits Leafkit in honor of her. *Mentors: Firestar, Sandstorm *Apprentice: Sparrowpelt *Formerly Known As: Leaf (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest), Leafdapple (Firestar's Quest) Sharpclaw Sharpclaw is a dark ginger tom with green eyes of SkyClan, and its current deputy. Before he joined SkyClan, he was a rogue named Scratch. He joined SkyClan because he wanted the strength of many cats protection of each other. Later he was very interested in getting nine lives, but Leafstar was chosen leader instead. Leafstar named him deputy afterwards. *Mentors: Firestar, Sandstorm *Formerly Known As: Scratch (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) *Apprentice: Cherrytail Skywatcher Skywatcher was a very old dark gray tom with pale blue eyes. His grandmother was a member of SkyClan, but the Clan had vanished by the time Skywatcher was born. His mother named him Sky so that the memory of SkyClan would continue to live, and she taught him the ways of a warrior. Before Firestar rebuilt SkyClan, every full moon, Skywatcher would go to gaze at the moon from the cliff overlooking SkyClan's camp. This led the other cats in the area to think that Skywatcher was mad, and it is also why he was dubbed "Moony" by the kittypets Cherry and Boris. Skywatcher also reminded Firestar and Sandstorm of Yellowfang. Skywatcher helps to convince Firestar that he must rebuild SkyClan, and Firestar later gives him his warrior name, Skywatcher. It is then revealed that Skywatcher was the cat who gave Firestar the prophecy that first appeared in The Sight: "There will be three, kin of your kin, who will hold the power of the stars in their paws." The day after he gives Firestar the prophecy, Firestar finds Skywatcher's body in his old den, remembering that the cat had seemed to know he was going to die. Later, Skywatcher gives Firestar advice on where to find SkyClan's medicine cat, and he gives Leafstar her second life. *Mentor: Pricklenose *Kin: Lowbranch (mother), Twig (brother) *Formerly Known As: Sky (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) *Death: Old age, Firestar's Quest Shortwhisker Shortwhisker was a dark brown tabby tom that became for a short time a warrior of SkyClan, but then decided to return to his kittypet life. He came (rather reluctantly) to the SkyClan meeting and joined. However, after the numerous dangers he faced, he was shown to be softhearted and genial, but kind nevertheless. He was panicky and always voiced his fears. After the battle with the rat hoards and the tragedy of Rainfur's death, he revokes his warrior name and the warrior's way of life. *Mentor Firestar *Formerly Known As: Hutch (before and after Firestar's Quest - Shortwhisker (Firestar's Quest) Sparrowpelt Sparrowpelt is a dark brown tabby tom warrior of SkyClan. Once, he and his sister Cherrytail were kittypets, but Firestar saw they had SkyClan blood and invited them into SkyClan. Sparrowpelt was mentored by Leafstar. He fought in the battle with the rats. He once called Skywatcher 'Moony', but later aplogized after Skywatcher's death. Leafstar made him a warrior with the name of Sparrowpelt, and gave him Tinypaw to mentor. *Mentor: Leafstar *Apprentice: Tinypaw *Kin: Cherrytail (sister) *Formerly Known As: Boris (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest), Sparrowpaw (Firestar's Quest) Secondary Characters Bouncepaw Bouncepaw is a ginger tom, and a SkyClan apprentice. He was first seen being protected by his mother as a kit, Clovertail, who joins the Clan to protect him. He later falls in the river after being in the Whispering Cave with his siblings, and Clovertail saves him. He says that there are voices in the cave, but Clovertail doesn't believe him. After the battle against the rats, Bouncepaw was given to Patchfoot to mentor. *Mentor: Patchfoot *Kin: Clovertail (mother), Rockpaw, Tinypaw (siblings) *Formerly Known As: Bounce (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest), Bouncekit (Firestar's Quest) Clovertail Clovertail is a light brown she-cat with a white belly and legs. She was first seen by Firestar, Sandstorm, and Sharpclaw on SkyClan's territory, where she was sheltering her kits from a fox. She decides to join SkyClan, thinking that her kits will have protection. At one part, Bouncepaw falls into the river and she jumps in and starts swimming strongly to save him. Firestar wonders if she is descended from RiverClan somehow. When the Clan is getting ready to fight the rats, she decides to join in the training. Later, Firestar thinks that Birchstar looks like her, also hinting that she has RiverClan ancestry. *Mentors: Firestar, Sandstorm *Kin: Tinypaw, Bouncepaw, Rockpaw (kits) *Formerly Known As: Clover (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) Mintkit Mintkit is a pale gray tom kit of SkyClan. He is the kit of Rainfur and Petalnose. Firestar, Rainfur, Sharpclaw, Leafstar, and Patchfoot rescue him, his sister Sagekit, and his mother from a Twoleg. In the Firestar's Quest Allegiances, Mintkit is described as a gray tabby she-cat and his sister Sagekit is described as a pale gray tom, but throughout the rest of the book, their descriptions and genders are switched, so it appears that the Allegiances just made a mistake. Nothing else is known about Mintkit. *Kin: Rainfur (father), Petalnose (mother), Sagekit (sister) *Formerly Known As: Mint (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) Patchfoot Patchfoot is a black and white tom warrior of SkyClan. He went to the meeting to rebuild SkyClan and chose to join. Patchfoot helps rescue Petalnose, Mintkit, and Sagekit from a Twoleg. Patchfoot was attacked by rats, and recovered with the help of Sandstorm and Echosong. Leafstar says he showed courage and endurance, and she gave him Bouncepaw to mentor. *Mentors: Firestar, Sandstorm *Apprentice: Bouncepaw *Formerly Known As: Patch (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) Petalnose Petalnose is a pale gray she-cat queen of SkyClan. Rainfur comes to SkyClan and asks for their help, and a patrol comes to help. Petalnose is kept locked in a Twoleg nest and doesn't get enough to eat, so Firestar, Sharpclaw, Leafstar, and Patchfoot come to help. She then joins the Clan with her kits. *Mate: Rainfur *Kin: Mintkit, Sagekit (kits) *Formerly Known As: Petal (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) Rainfur Rainfur was a light gray tom with dark gray flecks, and a warrior of SkyClan. As a rogue, he came to the meeting, but didn't want to join SkyClan because he didn't see any benefits for himself (as was common behavior of rogues). When he came back, trying to get help to rescue his mate Petal and his kits Sage and Mint from the abusive Twoleg, Firestar, Sharpclaw, Leafdapple, and Patchfoot came to help. The family joined the Clan after seeing the bravery and determination of the warriors when they were rescued. Later, in a battle with rats, Rainfur, separated from the rest of the warriors, is killed by a massive group of rats. He later appears in StarClan at Leafstar's ceremony, telling Firestar he now knows the warrior code is worth dying for. *Mate: Petalnose *Kin: Mintkit, Sagekit (kits) *Death: Battle with the rats, Firestar's Quest Rockpaw Rockpaw is a black tom, and a SkyClan apprentice.

His mentor is Cherrytail. *Mentor: Cherrytail *Kin: Clovertail (mother), Tinypaw, Bouncepaw (siblings) *Formerly Known As: Rock (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest), Rockkit (Firestar's Quest) Sagekit Sagekit is a gray tabby she-cat kit of SkyClan. She is described as a pale gray tom in the allegiances, but throughout the rest of the book her brother Mintkit is the one who is described as a gray tom, so their descriptions probably just accidentally got switched in the allegiances. Sagekit is also the kit of Rainfur and Petalnose. Firestar, Rainfur, Sharpclaw, Leafstar, and Patchfoot rescue her, her brother Mintkit, and her mother from a Twoleg. Nothing else is known about Sagekit. *Kin: Rainfur (father), Petalnose (mother), Mintkit (brother) *Formerly Known As: Sage (before Firestar's Quest - Firestar's Quest) Tinypaw Tinypaw is a small white she-cat, and a SkyClan apprentice.
