Cedarheart

Cedarheart is a muscular dark gray tom with yellow eyes.
Cedarheart was a ShadowClan elder under Blackstar's leadership in the forest and the lake territories. He was born to Darkflower and Scorchwind alongside his siblings, Rowanclaw and Lavenderkit. As an apprentice, Cedarpaw was mentored by Russetfur, and after the battle against BloodClan, he earned his warrior name, Cedarheart. He participated on the Great Journey and quickly defended ShadowClan's new borders. He urged Blackstar to accept ThunderClan's help to scare off the vicious kittypets after their Twolegs left his patrol injured. After retiring to the elders' den, Cedarheart became an avid storyteller, specializing in the Clan's histories of battles. Cedarheart perished in the Great Battle, and he ascended to StarClan afterwards.

Later, when a ThunderClan patrol offers to help them fight the kittypets, Blackstar refuses their assistance. Cedarheart tells Blackstar not be a fool and accept ThunderClan's help.

:Urged by Hawkfrost's advice to find followers, Mudclaw seeks out Cedarheart in ShadowClan's territory. He invites Cedarheart to join him to overthrow Onewhisker, insisting that Firestar's involvement in WindClan is dangerously similar to how Tigerstar took over ShadowClan and RiverClan. Cedarheart attends the secret meetings along with Rowanclaw, Oakfur, Blackclaw, Nightcloud, and Webfoot. When Leafpaw discovers the Moonpool, the group agrees to strike to kill Onewhisker and Ashfoot so Mudclaw can take over.

Along with Oakfur, he is told off by Blackstar for wandering too far ahead of the battle patrol, but is instructed to hide around a wooden Twoleg nest. When Blackstar orders his patrol to surround the RiverClan cats, he blocks an escape route so the cats could not swim away.
:Dapplenose points him out at a Gathering. It is implied that he and his Clanmates, Snaketail and Tallpoppy, are making rude faces at the reader. Dapplenose then mentions he has the longest memory of any cat. He later narrates the story of Morningstar, a leader who sought peace among his Clan. He tells another story to the pair of kittypets, this one about a harsh battle between SkyClan and ThunderClan, and how they both had very different stories to tell. Cedarheart also tells he pair of curious kittypets that they they have walked in the memories of the finest warriors.
