TigerClan (modern)

The modern TigerClan was an alliance between RiverClan and ShadowClan, which Tigerstar created in his attempts to take over the forest.
==History==
===In the The Prophecies Begin arc===
====The Darkest Hour====
:TigerClan was an alliance formed between ShadowClan and RiverClan because of the Tigerstar's manipulation of Leopardstar. He claimed that it would help the four Clans to join together because they could share prey and work together as joint leaders. Tallstar disagreed, because TigerClan was the name of one of the Great Clans, and Firestar disagreed, knowing that Tigerstar would never share power equally, though he claimed the four Clans would have equal power. However, it was Tigerstar's Clan, ShadowClan, that held most of the power; a few ShadowClan warriors were left at the RiverClan camp permanently, where they did little work for Leopardstar's Clan, just eating their prey and never hunting for themselves, instead just keeping an eye on them to ensure loyalty. There, Tigerstar built a mound of bones known as the Bonehill where he addressed the joint Clan, in an imitation of the Highrock of his former Clan, ThunderClan.
:Tigerstar soon began a purge of half-Clan cats; he pitted the underfed Stonefur, former deputy of RiverClan, against Darkstripe, a traitor to ThunderClan who left them to follow Tigerstar to ShadowClan. Despite being better-fed and more rested, Darkstripe was nearly defeated by Stonefur until Tigerstar's deputy Blackfoot intervened, killing Stonefur. Though they planned to do the same to Stonefur's sister Mistyfoot, and the kits of Graystripe and Silverstream, Stormpaw and Featherpaw, a trio party from ThunderClan consisting of its leader, Firestar, Graystripe, and the loner Ravenpaw rescued the cats before TigerClan could do so, narrowly escaping a group of the merged Clan's cats on their way back to ThunderClan territory. Tigerstar was undaunted, though, and allied with BloodClan, a group of cats who lived in Twolegplace in hopes of forcing his enemies out of the forest or into TigerClan.
:Tigerstar did not count on BloodClan's leader, Scourge, though. Scourge killed Tigerstar when the dark tabby attacked him, attempting to make the BloodClan leader obey his order to attack the Clans. With the loss of their leader, TigerClan was finished. Firestar persuaded Leopardstar, the Clan's new leader, to join her forces with his newly-formed LionClan to battle BloodClan, now attempting to drive all of the cats from the forest and take it for themselves. With the death of Scourge at the claws of Firestar and the defeat of BloodClan, LionClan disbanded, and the state of the four Clans returned to normal.
