Whitewing

Whitewing is a small, soft-furred, snowy-white she-cat with green eyes, and broad shoulders.
Whitewing is a ThunderClan warrior who has served under Firestar's, Bramblestar's, the impostor's, Lionblaze's, Graystripe's, and Squirrelstar's leaderships in the lake territories. She was born as Whitekit, the sole kit in Brightheart and Cloudtail's first litter. She was mentored by Brackenfur during the destruction of the forest, though Whitepaw chose to extend her apprenticeship so Birchpaw wouldn't be alone once upon arriving at the lake. She later received her warrior name, Whitewing, and became mates with Birchfall, giving birth to Ivykit and Dovekit. She mentored three apprentices, Icecloud, Cherryfall, and Dewnose, and was shown to have strong faith in StarClan and the warrior code.
==History==
===The New Prophecy===
:Whitepaw is mentored by Brackenfur, training alongside her denmates, Shrewpaw, Spiderpaw, and Squirrelpaw. When Cloudtail and Brightheart go missing, trapped by Twolegs, Whitepaw is frantic, but is overjoyed when her parents return. After the Great Journey, Whitepaw becomes ThunderClan's sole apprentice, and while the warriors help her with apprentice duties, she remains lonely and overworked. However, when Birchpaw is made an apprentice, Whitepaw becomes very close to him, even extending her apprenticeship so they can stay together.
===Power of Three===
:She is now a warrior, Whitewing. When Jaykit is made into a warrior apprentice, Whitewing is the first to question the choice to apprentice a blind cat. However, she is strongly supportive of Millie, a former kittypet, joining the Clan and retaining her name. Later, she catches greencough, but recovers and receives her first apprentice, Icepaw, a decision made by Firestar because of the cats' shared coloring of their pelts. Eventually, she becomes mates with Birchfall and gives birth to Dovekit and Ivykit. Jayfeather takes interest in them, believing one could be the third cat in the Kin of your Kin prophecy.
===Omen of the Stars===
:Whitewing and Birchfall watch proudly as their daughters are made apprentices. However, when Dovepaw begins speaking of large brown animals blocking the stream, Whitewing scolds her daughter for frightening the Clan with her imagination. Unbeknownst to her and the Clan, Dovepaw has the power to hear and see beyond her normal senses. Her other daughter, Ivypaw, begins having recurring nightmares, worrying Whitewing greatly; though her daughter is in fact training in the Dark Forest. Whitewing further cares for her daughters when Ivypool becomes lost in the tunnels, and Dovewing has recurring nightmares of Swoop's death, which occurred during the time in the mountains. Whitewing bravely partakes in the battle against the Dark Forest.
===A Vision of Shadows===
:When Bramblestar reveals the truth about SkyClan, Whitewing firmly believes that finding the missing Clan is the solution StarClan willed for the Clan to drive out Darktail and The Kin. She later comes up with a successful plan for each Clan to use their distinct abilities in a battle against them. Later, Whitewing becomes extremely worried after Dovewing disappears, though the birth of Ivypool's kits, Thriftkit, Flipkit, and Bristlekit, eases the pain. However, when Whitewing catches a terrible belly sickness, Dovewing's disappearance leaves Whitewing with little strength to fight the illness. Nonetheless, Whitewing recovers, and Dovewing returns, which makes Whitewing overjoyed to see her daughter alive. Though, she reluctantly accepts her decision to join ShadowClan to be with her mate, Tigerstar, and kits, Pouncekit, Lightkit, and Shadowkit.
===The Broken Code===
:Whitewing tries to encourage Squirrelflight to go and get her nine lives at the Moonpool when Bramblestar is pronounced dead, though Squirrelflight snaps at her cousin out of grief. After the impostor is revealed to be Ashfur, Whitewing and her former apprentice, Cherryfall, guard Ashfur's prison in ShadowClan's camp.
===Super Editions===
:In Firestar's Quest, Whitekit is born to Brightheart and Cloudtail. When Squirrelkit and Leafkit are born, Whitekit is ecstatic to have new denmates to play with.
:In Bramblestar's Storm, Whitewing becomes mentor to Dewpaw, her younger brother, training him and quizzing him on the Stick of the Fallen. She is buried during a mudslide, but manages to break free and help Dewpaw escape. After Dustpelt's death, she comforts Brackenfur.
===Novellas===

:In Dovewing's Silence, Whitewing is pained by the death of Sorreltail, helping carry her body for burial. She later confronts Dovewing about her powers, expressing regret that her daughter had not confided in her. When Dovewing worries that her deceased Clanmates had died in vain, Whitewing counsels her daughter, explaining that the wounds of the battle heal with time.
