Thornstar

Thornstar is a brown tabby tom with green eyes.
Thornstar was a ThunderClan leader in the lake territories. He was born to Willowcreek and Stagstorm alongside his sister, Rowankit. He became a warrior named Thornblade, and eventually rose to become Azurestar's deputy. He was a respectful and fierce deputy in ThunderClan, highly respected in the territories. He became close with Snowgaze during gatherings, as she was the RiverClan deputy. The two eventually became mates and Thornstar succeeded to leader after Azurestar's death.
As leader, his behaviour started growing more stern and aggressive. He had taken advantage of his and Snowstar's close relationship, attacking RiverClan in exchange for Sunningrocks. After they lost the first one, tensions heightened between the two Clans and Snowstar ultimately broke up with Thornstar. After multiple battles, he had successfully taken the lives of Dawnfall and Stormfeather, which played a significant part in RiverClan's surrender. After Snowstar became pregnant, he turned her and the kits away. She ended up giving birth to his daughters: Briarkit, Honeykit, Duskkit and Fawnkit.
During the the forest murders, Thornstar was one of the suspected killers due to the murders being found on ThunderClan territory. He retaliated against RiverClan and attacked them, before receiving an omen from SoulClan which halted the war. Still suspected due to the battle, Thornstar was killed by his daughters, Fawnfur and Honeyfur. He descended to SoulClan, where he refused to give Moonstar her last life due to the fact she left him to die.
==History==
===In RiverClan's Trial===
====A Silent Destiny====
:Thornstar is the leader of ThunderClan in the lake territories. He is first seen during a gathering, where he makes scornful remarks towards Snowstar. He discloses the issue of ThunderClan's water supply drying and their wield of the Sunningrocks. Later, Moonpelt explains to Blackflame how Thornstar believes in the Clans fending for themselves.
:When Duskkit, Honeykit, Fawnkit and Briarkit sneak out of RiverClan camp, Thornstar finds them and takes them back to ThunderClan, as he refuses to abandon the kits in the middle of a blizzard. However, as soon as they arrive, Thornstar decides to keep them captive in spite of RiverClan's protest in the previous battle. Darkpetal tries to argue against him, but he brings up the death of her mate, Birchsoar. After threatening exile, he leaves the queen alone with the kits.
:Honeypaw goes to confront Thornstar alongside her sisters after Sparktail reveals the fact that he is their father. Fawnpaw is aggravated with the fact he had kidnapped them and Thornstar explains he didn't know they were his kits then. He turns his daughters away, resulting in a rift in their relationship. At the gathering, Thornstar is shamed by Gnarledstar - who taunts him about the secret he had hid from his Clan. She accuses him of disloyalty and Thornstar tries his best to avoid the claims, though the respect of his Clanmates falters drastically. After Blackstar announces Snowstar's death, the numbness in Thornstar's gaze makes Honeypaw's fur bristle.
====The Muted Call====
====Shattered Star====
====The Darkest Storm====
:Honeyfur catches a glimpse of Thornstar in SoulClan, barely recognising him at first through the starry pelt. For a moment, she finds herself believing that he didn't deserve to have been accepted into SoulClan, but also expresses remorse for wrongfully killing him. She tries her best to avoid him, but Fawnfur later approaches Thornstar and apologises. He accepts her apology and eventually accepts them as his daughters. While in SoulClan, Briarkit seems distant towards him and leaniant towards Snowstar.

==Personality==
:As a young warrior, Thornblade was critical, respected and determined. He's been described as calculated and calm, as well as extremely formal. As deputy under Azurestar, Thornstar was obedient to her authority and later rose as leader. This caused his behaviour to change drastically. He became rather aggressive and hesitant to ally with the other Clans, and a lot of it was to due with his and Snowstar's relationship. He would go to unspoken lengths for ThunderClan, which included starting battles he could've easily finished. He was very prideful, and refused to admit ThunderClan was at fault for any of the problems within the Lake. He often got into fights with leaders, and has proved to be distrustful.
:Despite all of this, he deeply loved and cared for ThunderClan. He didn't hold his resentment towards Honeyfur and Fawnfur and accepted that Snowstar, alongside Briarkit, wanted nothing to do with him upon death. However, he cannot let go of grudges which further pushes his pride, as shown when he turned his back on Moonstar during her ceremony.
