StarClan

StarClan is the realm for the deceased cats of the 5 Clans, or for cats who believed in it. It is a realm in the stars that contains a land very similar to the Clan territories where cats can roam without borders. They watch over the living clan cats and send them prophecies or omens to warn them of future events. They also supply leaders with nine lives.
Cats are only allowed to join StarClan's ranks if they lived an honourable life, and the cats who have not end up in The Place of No Stars instead. Upon death, a cat is led to StarClan by a cat who played an important part in their life, whether it be their parent(s), sibling(s), mate, mentor, close friend, or kits. 
StarClan cats have shimmering pelts and tend to have small patterns of constellations marking their death-wound if it had been caused by physical means. Cats who died of sickness, old age, or otherwise typically show no sign of what caused their death. They will usually revert to appear as the age they were at their happiest at, an example being elders appearing as they had been as young warriors. Kits who die prematurely or too young to speak or properly walk tend to grow slightly to an age where they can walk and speak with others.
Cats, over time, as cats begin forgetting about them or stop telling their stories, might begin fading slightly, though they cannot fade completely without their own choice in the matter. Some younger StarClan cats who don't want to experience the afterlife are capable of making themselves fade early, for example.
Shown by Morningfeather in The Muddied Arc, a cat of StarClan who commits abhorrent deeds beyond death, no matter how just they might believe they are, will have red stars begin to appear in their pelt as a warning. 
When fighting, cats of StarClan heal on their own, their wounds closing by themselves. If a StarClan cat is killed, the stars in their pelt burn out and they fade, and it is unknown where exactly they go after that.
StarClan shares a border with The Place of No Stars, and can speak with cats from it at the border without risk of them being attacked. Cats such as Vixenstrike, Russetkit, Alderkit, Stormkit, and Widowflurry are commonly seen at the border, whether to convene with Dark Forest cats or to avoid other StarClan inhabitants. They can cross the border and enter, though if they are within The Dark Forest for longer than an hour, they will become permanent inhabitants.
=== Relation to Living Cats ===
StarClan cats are meant to guide living warriors, sending prophecies and omens to a clan's leader and medicine cat to interpret as warnings for future events, whether they be storms, battles, or outside threats. Occasionally, StarClan cats will visit warriors, apprentices, or even kits, though this isn't a common occurrence.
StarClan cats can only speak to cats outside of the clans that have a connection with StarClan, they cannot visit cats who don't know of or believe in StarClan outside of giving messages in the physical world via the wind or nature. 
Occasionally, StarClan cats are capable of appearing in the physical realm in front of living cats, sometimes to deliver prophecies and sometimes to even assist another cat they care of in battle (Though outside of dire emergencies this is typically frowned upon, as it alters a cat's destiny). Usually, though, they can walk amongst their clanmates, however, appear invisible to any living cat's eyes.
StarClan cats are capable of physically impacting a cat and their future, mostly shown through reincarnation. If StarClan feels as if a cat's end is not just, they will reincarnate them as a kit of an upcoming or newly arriving litter. Examples of this are Smokewhisker, who is a reincarnation of Smokewatcher, and Stumpystep, who is a reincarnation of Beezle. This is not a commonly used power and it is not to be used lightly or often. 
=== Trials ===
Though some cats are able to pass through to StarClan without any issue, cats who have broken the code, trained amongst The Place of No Stars, or had committed dishonourable acts on their clan or others in their past will be tried by a group of StarClan cats, usually led by an ancient leader or medicine cat. The cats harmed by that cat (if any) will be present as well as the cat's ancestors and some cats they knew in their life. Depending on how StarClan rules it, they will either be sent to The Place of No Stars or will be allowed a place in StarClan. Rarely, some cats will be stuck in the middle, in a land near The Place of No Stars, most deem as Purgatory if StarClan cannot come to a decision of where a cat should land or if a cat's crimes are not deemed worthy of a position in The Place of No Stars (this is typically reserved to forbidden relationships).
Examples of cats subjected to a trial upon death are Serpentstrike, who was tried for his forbidden relationship with Lilyfrost but allowed entry due to his honourable acts as a warrior, Lavenderstar, who was sent to Purgatory due to her dishonourable acts as well as her honourable ones clashing together, and Pineheart, who was nearly sent to Purgatory as well for his forbidden relationship with Creekwhisper before StarClan decided to allow him entry. 
During The Muddied Arc, Morningfeather and Widowstar took over these trials once StarClan had been separated into two halves. She called for living code followers to execute code breakers, and upon their awakening in StarClan, they would be tried in what many considered unfair trials that always resulted in their second execution. An example of deaths caused by these trials includes Nightrock, who was tried and executed for her forbidden relationship with Wolfstar.
