Brokenstar/Trivia

==Trivia==
===Interesting facts===
*His mother, Yellowfang, named him Brokenkit because of the way she felt having left him, but also knowing that every cat would think it is because of the bend in his tail, giving it a broken effect.
*Brokenstar became a warrior early at eleven moons old.
*He has kittypet blood through his grandfather, Hal.
*Brokenstar's greatest fear is a lack of respect for him from other cats.Revealed on Vicky's Facebook 
*Both times Brokenstar died, Yellowfang was responsible for his death.
*Brokenstar didn't like being touched outside of battle training.
===Mistakes===
*He is mistakenly described with a black pelt multiple times.
**The first instance in Fading Echoes was fixed in the reprinted version.
*In Cats of the Clans, The Ultimate Guide, and Enter the Clans, Brokenstar is mistakenly depicted as a short-furred and sleek tabby without a flattened muzzle.Revealed in his artwork from Cats of the Clans and The Ultimate Guide
*He has been mistakenly called Brokentail instead of Brokenstar.
*In Cats of the Clans, Rock stated that Brokenstar was unaware of the fact that Raggedstar was his father. However, in Yellowfang's Secret, Brokenstar is raised knowing who his father is. Oddly, the dialogue in the manga at the end of Yellowfang's Secret, when Brokenstar is killed, remains the same as it was in Forest of Secrets, with Yellowfang revealing to him that he killed his own father as if he is unaware of his paternal heritage.
*There are a few inconsistencies with his first Gathering during Bluestar's Prophecy and Yellowfang's Secret.
**In Bluestar's Prophecy, Brokenpaw starts a fight with two RiverClan apprentices, but in Yellowfang's Secret, he starts a fight between two WindClan apprentices.
**Leopardfoot said that Cedarstar assigned Brokenpaw to clean the elders' den for the next moon in Bluestar's Prophecy, but Yellowfang's Secret doesn't show that happening; even if it did happen, it would have been away from Fourtrees, where she couldn't have heard the punishment, as ShadowClan left as soon as the Gathering was over.
===Continuity===
*In Secrets of the Clans, a 2007 field guide, Brokenkit is the only surviving kit of Yellowfang and Raggedstar's litter. Yellowfang gives him to Lizardstripe to nurse, and when she refuses, Raggedstar forces her. When Brokentail became a warrior, Raggedstar chooses him as his third deputy after Cloudpelt died. Brokentail killed Raggedstar and became the leader of ShadowClan. Brokenstar weakened the Clan by concentrating on battle, apprenticing kits as early as three moons old, and making the Clan eat crow-food instead of fresh-kill because warriors were used for fighting, not hunting. Brokenstar was listed as a significant leader of ShadowClan and was described as a cold, ambitious, cruel, ruthless, heartless, and murderous tom. 
**His mentor was also mistakenly said to be Raggedstar, when it was actually Nightpelt.
**Raggedstar is the ShadowClan leader when Brokenkit is born, but he is the deputy in Yellowfang's Secret at the time.
