thistleclaw

He entered the Dark Forest: a place where the spirits of evil cats train others to become more powerful and violent. There he learned deadly attack techniques and decided to break the Warrior Rules if necessary to get what he wanted. He wanted to be chosen as second-in-command, but Bluestar preferred Redtail instead. This enraged him even more. His greatest dream was to become leader of ThunderClan, and he believed that to achieve this, one had to be the strongest, the ruthiest warrior, and the one who won the most battles. Therefore, he had a terrible influence on his apprentice, Tigerpaw: he trained him harshly, encouraged him to be ambitious, and even incited him to attack a small house cat (who would later become Scourge, the leader of the Clanless cats). Thanks to Thistleclaw, Tigerpaw developed that thirst for power and cruelty that led him to become one of the most famous villains in the saga. He wanted ThunderClan to be the most powerful of all, and he defended his territories so fiercely that he said the boundaries had to be marked with the blood of enemies.

• Physical appearance: It is a large, strong, and muscular cat with gray and white fur with pointed tips that stand up all over its body—hence its name. It has amber-orange eyes and very sharp claws.

• Parents: Poppiedia and Vientovuelo- Siblings: Rosacola and Dulcepata- Mate: Nievesnieve (his only mate, who died young)- Son: Vientoblanco —one of the most respected and kind cats in ThunderClan, although Thistleclaw never treated him with affection or tenderness.
