One-eye

One-eye is a pale gray she-cat who is virtually blind and deaf. A knotted scar covers the lid of her missing eye, and her remaining eye is yellow.
One-eye was a ThunderClan elder who served as a warrior under Pinestar's and Sunstar's leaderships in the forest territories. Whitekit and Specklekit were born to Harepounce and Stagleap but were later fostered by Rainfur after their mother died during the Great Hunger. Whitepaw was mentored by Smallear, though her cloudy eye did not prevent her from becoming a warrior, later named White-eye. She gave birth to Sparrowpelt's kits, Mousekit and Runningkit. When she retired to the elders' den, her name was changed to One-eye. One-eye and her mate, now named Halftail, lived in the elders' den together during Bluestar's and Firestar's leaderships, where she also taught Firestar about the name changing ceremony. She later joined StarClan after her death. 
==History==
===In the The Prophecies Begin arc===
====Into the Wild====
:One-eye is said to be the oldest cat in ThunderClan, and is virtually both blind and deaf, due to her missing eye and old age. When Graypaw introduces Firepaw to the elders, she tells Smallear that she will not mind if they shared a mouse. Smallear mentions that Bluestar will be appointing a new deputy soon and One-eye asks him what he said, because she could not hear him. Smallear, shouting to make himself heard, comments that her hearing is almost as bad as her eyesight, then repeats himself from before. One-eye then speaks with Dappletail and Smallear about when Bluestar herself was the deputy and how she will be unhappy to be choosing a new deputy after Redtail's death.
:During a Gathering, One-eye goes with Dappletail and Smallear toward a group of elders from other Clans. She speaks out when she is talking to the other elders of ThunderClan about Yellowfang being a danger to the Clan. When ShadowClan attacks, she helps to protect the other elders and kits, despite the fact that she is old and frail.
====Fire and Ice====
:One-eye talks to the cats returning from the Gathering, commenting that Nightpelt should not have spoken at the Gathering because he did not have his nine lives yet. Bluestar replies saying that Nightpelt has ShadowClan's full support.
====Forest of Secrets====
:During the season of leaf-bare, her pads are cracking from the cold, so Yellowfang has Cinderpaw bring her some herbs to soothe them. One-eye is sleeping in the elders' den when Cloudkit is checking the elders for ticks. Dappletail advises Cloudkit not to wake One-eye and Fireheart tells Cloudkit he can check One-eye later.
====Rising Storm====
:When Speckletail says how Willowpelt's kits will be born soon, One-eye replies by saying kits are a good omen. One-eye does not hear something that Patchpelt says and asks to hear it again, Patchpelt however explains it to her like she had no idea about it, and One-eye snaps at him for thinking her mind is not well. It is said that One-eye is respected for her wisdom, in spite of her bad temper. When the other elders fret that Fireheart's late deputy naming ceremony was a sign from StarClan, Fireheart waits for One-eye to calm them with her wise words, but, to Fireheart's concern, she remains silent.
:Later, she complains that the forest is as dry as a kit's bedding because there is not any water close to their camp anymore. She helps the other elders to fetch water from the river, later coming back because there were Twolegs out in the forest. She asks if they would be gone by nightfall seeming to be quite fearful of the Twolegs in which Fireheart attempts to sooth her worries.
====A Dangerous Path====
:One-eye is in the elders' den as Fireheart comes in, asking where Cloudtail was, as he needed him for a hunting patrol. 
====The Darkest Hour====
:Cloudtail wants Firestar to change Lostface's name, and mentions that One-eye never started with her name nor did Halftail with his. Firestar later goes into the elders' den to talk to One-eye. She wakes up from her nest where she was sleeping and Firestar explains to her about Lostface getting her name changed. One-eye states that it is fine for an older cat like her to have a name like One-eye, but for a young cat's name, it is different. She then tells Firestar what the ceremony for a name change is and how it is performed.
:When Firestar tells Speckletail that she must stay behind at the camp, he mentions that One-eye and Smallear would barely make it to Fourtrees.
===In the Super Editions===
====Bluestar's Prophecy====
:Whitepaw is an apprentice, being mentored by Smallear. Her apprenticeship is delayed because a badger had blinded her in one eye.
:While speaking with Dapplepaw, she recommends for Leopardkit to show Bluekit and Snowkit the dirtplace, as Whitepaw was complaining about cleaning the nursery in the morning. Bluekit declares that she and Snowkit could keep their nest clean, and Dapplepaw promises to tell Whitepaw when she returns hunting, and is certain that she would be delighted to hear it. 
:When she returns, Dapplepaw and Whitepaw practice battle moves, and the former rolls away from the latter. Whitepaw then shakes out her fur, and remarks that she was not sneaky, and her act was merely pure skill. Whitepaw stares at Dapplepaw crossly, her eye glinting in the sunshine, and Bluekit knows that she cannot see out of her eye. However, she recalls that she could well enough to make it impossible to creep up to her, as Snowkit and Bluekit attempted several times. Moonflower then nudges her kits past Dapplepaw and Whitepaw, who jostle for the best position on the tree stump. When Leopardpaw and Patchpaw are made apprentices, Whitepaw follows Dapplepaw, and points out that they made nests for them with some of Whitepaw's moss.
:A moon later, Whitepaw is given her warrior name, and is known as White-eye. Dappletail tells her to come, and Bluekit thinks that it was cruel for Pinestar to name her after her blind eye that mars her face. However, White-eye is not bothered, and she follows Dappletail with her usual unruffled air, and shrugs apologetically as she passes Patchpaw. When taking back Sunningrocks, Pinestar informs Stormtail to take Dappletail, Sweetpaw, Smallear, White-eye, and Tawnyspots with him, and they step forward, pelts bristling. On Pinestar's command, White-eye, along with the rest of the patrol, pound after Stormtail. 
:When Leopardfoot is said to move into the nursery, White-eye joins her as company to chase away the chill that creep into the den. When looking for new nests, Patchpelt nods that they could take Leopardfoot's and White-eye's nests. While being picked on a patrol, Sunfall notes that he would round up Sparrowpelt and White-eye. Lionpaw then joins Bluefur with Sunfall, White-eye, and Swiftbreeze. Goosefeather then carries two shrews to where White-eye and Tawnyspots sit, and White-eye flinches as an agonized wail sounds from the nursery, and murmurs for StarClan to light their path. While Leopardfoot kits, White-eye presses against Sparrowpelt while Robinwing and Thrushpelt circle them. Once she finishes kitting, Dappletail asks White-eye if she heard that there were two she-cats and a tom, turning to her. Afterwards, White-eye files in after Stormtail with Robinwing and Thrushpelt.
:While Bluefur thinks about Goosefeather, it is noted that when White-eye had a thorn in her pad, she sought out Featherwhisker instead. When Pinestar leaves ThunderClan, White-eye tucks her tail over her paws, and declares that Sunfall would make a good leader, looking for agreement. White-eye is sent on a patrol with Speckletail, Stormtail, Fuzzypelt, and Bluefur to patrol RiverClan's border. When Snowfur dies, Bluefur feels White-eye's tail drape over her shoulders, and coaxes her to get back to camp. While Bluefur thinks of her sister's death, White-eye whispers for her to continue walking, pressing closer. When gazing at Snowfur's body, White-eye notes that Thistleclaw could tell Whitekit of his mother's death. When Tigerkit becomes an apprentice, Fuzzypelt and White-eye are on their paws beside the nettle patch.
:When Whitestorm becomes a warrior, it is noted that White-eye moves to the nursery, and expects her first kits. She is said to be anxious about raising a litter through leaf-bare, but the Clan is hopeful, and Bluefur believes that they would protect her kits, however harsh the leaf-bare. When she catches a bird, Bluefur thinks that it would be a tasty treat for White-eye. When they plan to take back Sunningrocks again, White-eye watches from outside the nursery. Once the patrol leaves, White-eye comments that she despised being left behind. Bluefur replies that they would be back soon, and Bluefur is said to keep White-eye company. Once they return, White-eye purrs as Sparrowpelt pads over, and presses his muzzle to hers, the latter stating that there would be plenty of fresh-kill for their kits.
:Bluefur then begins to kit, and White-eye asks if they were coming. Once she is done, White-eye inquires about the names of her kits. She then asks White-eye if she should take them indoors, and White-eye replies that kits were tougher than their appearances suggested. She adds that if she saw their noses turning pale, then she should take them in. Whitestorm then brings White-eye a sparrow, and she glances at Bluefur, offering the first bite. When Featherwhisker remarks about the elders' hunger, White-eye offers the sparrow. While recalling visiting the Gathering, Bluefur pictures her kits safe beside White-eye's belly. 
:Bluefur then tells her kits to wake up quietly, so she does not disturb White-eye, Mousekit, or Runningkit, and looks anxiously at White-eye's nest. Bluefur informs her kits that they would meet their father, and Stonekit asks if it was Thrushpelt, as Runningkit told him that was who White-eye said was their father. When she returns, Bluefur checks to see if she did not disturb White-eye or her kits.
:It is mentioned that White-eye, Patchpelt, Halftail, Smallear, and Dappletail all made their nests in the elders' den. Spottedleaf is said to care for White-eye after she lost her blind eye completely, and took on the name One-eye, as her hearing was as poor as her sight. One-eye is also noted to not have been the only warrior to take on a name change.
====Firestar's Quest====
:When Firestar calls for a Clan meeting, One-eye joins her Clanmates. When Willowpelt dies, she wonders why a young cat was sent to StarClan so quickly when there was much more for her to do.
====Graystripe's Vow====
:Graystripe spots One-eye and Dappletail sharing tongues at the edge of the elders' den, listening to Speckletail tell a story. When Thornclaw and Brambleclaw report that WindClan is stealing ThunderClan prey, Graystripe hesitates to march into WindClan's camp and take action. He states he can not do that and insult them, causing One-eye to question why he can not.
:The elder questions Graystripe's decision to allow Gremlin, and her brother, Scraps, join ThunderClan. One-eye pushes Graystripe to define what he means by the rogue proving herself, stating that no cat knows anything about either of the two BloodClan cats. She and Speckletail later off to help fight against BloodClan. Graystripe appreciates their fighting words and tells the two elders to hide in the den and surprise BloodClan as a second wave in case the enemy appears to be winning.
===In the Novellas===
====Goosefeather's Curse====
:Whitekit is born along with her sister, Specklekit, to Harepounce around the beginning of leaf-bare. It is said that Cloudberry handled the births alone for fear of Goosefeather being able to see the kits' futures unroll. At the Gathering, Doestar announces that ThunderClan has had three new litters of kits born, including that of Whitekit and Specklekit. Upon returning to the camp, the prey that the cats have buried ends up completely ruined, and cats begin to starve. Harepounce is the first to die after refusing to eat, instead giving all of her meager share to her kits instead, leaving Whitekit and Specklekit motherless. The kits end up being taken in by Rainfur, who suckles all five kits throughout the leaf-bare. During the warrior ceremonies of Poppydawn, Moonflower, Heronwing, and Rabbitleap, Rainfur brings all five kits out to watch.
====Pinestar's Choice====
:When Pinestar announces that he is leaving to become a kittypet, White-eye insists that Sunfall will be a good leader and cats around her nod in agreement. Pinestar thanks her for supporting Sunfall's rise to leadership.
====Spottedleaf's Heart====
:As Featherwhisker is leaving his den, White-eye races into the medicine clearing and runs into the silver tom. The pale gray warrior frantically explains that she had gotten a thorn caught on her eye as she was leaving her den. White-eye is particularly scared about the injury because it was her good eye that was scratched and she does not want to lose sight in it as well. Featherwhisker goes over to examine the warrior, opening her eyelid and peering at her eye, determining that the thorn is not stuck in it and that the injury is not serious. He comments that he understands why White-eye is so afraid, but that her eye will be fine as long as he treats it with marigold.
:A few moons later, White-eye moves into the nursery and gives birth to Mousekit and Runningkit. While Bluefur is kitting, the pale gray queen sits on the other side of the nursery with her kits and watches. She anxiously asks if Bluefur is all right, and Spottedpaw assures her that the blue-gray cat is. Later that day, when Spottedpaw is thinking about different pairs of mates, she notes that most couples, like White-eye and Halftail, are affectionate in front of the other Clan cats.
:At the next full moon Gathering, when Bluefur decides to attend in spite of having small kits, she asks White-eye to keep an eye after Mistykit, Stonekit, and Mosskit. However, she knows that White-eye is busy with Mousekit and Runningkit, so she also asks Spottedpaw to watch after them. When the medicine cat apprentice later goes to the nursery to check on them, she finds White-eye and all five kits soundly asleep.
====Redtail's Debt====
:White-eye shows Redpaw her injured eye, telling him that a badger's claw had caught it resulting in blindness. She tells the apprentice that one wrong move in battle can leave a mark forever and that he should be careful. The apprentice asks her if she thinks that the Clan was going to fight and she tells him that it likely cannot be avoided. White-eye states that she wished she could help her Clanmates instead of being in the nursery, saying that she felt useless. Redpaw tells her having kits is important for the Clan and she thanks him for his support and tells him not to rush into battle and let the warriors handle it. Sparrowpelt appears, jokingly asking if she was scaring Redpaw. White-eye tells her mate that she wants the two of them to be careful, adding to Sparrowpelt that her kits needed their father.
:When Redpaw earns his warrior name, Redtail, she sits beside Sparrowpelt purring her support. Her kits, Mousekit and Runningkit, are at her paws, tumbling over them. White-eye later calls after her two kits, telling them to stop bothering Redtail and Tigerclaw when they return from Fourtrees. Following the warrior's report, Sunstar calls a Clan meeting and she sticks her head from the nursery asking what was going on. White-eye retires to the elders' den and is renamed One-eye after losing her blinded eye. When Redtail is in StarClan, he sees her with a crowd that includes Willowpelt and Dustpaw.
===In the Field Guides===
====Code of the Clans====
:She appears in a story called "Hunting Fish!", involving the second law of the warrior code. White-eye and Dappletail sneak to the river at night to fish out of the river. Even though ThunderClan did not need the prey, as it was greenleaf, White-eye was curious about what fish tasted like, and why RiverClan was so snooty about its prey being the best. White-eye thinks to herself about how this was the biggest adventure she had ever had, and how it was probably the biggest adventure any ThunderClan cat had.
:On the way to the river, Dappletail accidently steps on her foot. She puffs an apology, saying she thought it was a pebble. White-eye retorts by asking since when did pebbles have fur. Dappletail then asks if they were at the river yet. White-eye tells her they were there and makes room for her under the ferns. Dappletail comments she thought that it was spooky-looking at night. White-eye assures her that it is safe. They start whispering to each other, debating over whether fish slept or not.
:White-eye sees movement under the surface, and jumps into the water after it. She cannot swim, though, and struggles to keep her head above the surface. Dappletail tells her to come back, to which White-eye replies that she was trying. Dappletail continues to watch as the water begins to sweep her friend away. White-eye tells her to be quiet, otherwise they would get into trouble, but Dappletail ignores her. Nobody comes, so Dappletail jumps in after her, also finding that she is unable to swim properly. Owlfur and Hailstar see them, demanding to know what was going on, before Owlfur gets Dappletail out, while Hailstar saves White-eye. As she stumbles onto the shore, her eyes are glowing, and she proudly shows Dappletail the fish she had caught. Hailstar, annoyed, says she had squashed it against a rock, and it was not hers to catch in the first place.
:Pinestar and Sunfall see them, and as they approach, Dappletail glances at White-eye, saying she would never listen to any of her ideas again. White-eye tells Pinestar in a low, abashed voice that she wanted to know what fish tasted like, so Owlfur steps forward, suggesting that she and Dappletail eat the fish since they did catch it. Pinestar's eyes gleam as he gives his consent. White-eye and Dappletail begin to eat, but they are both revolted by the flavor. White-eye splutters that it was disgusting, but Sunfall reminds her she could not say that when RiverClan was letting them eat their catch. Dappletail begs them not to make them eat any more of it. Pinestar lectures them on how the warrior code existed for a good reason. He mews that ThunderClan do not eat fish, so they do not have anything to do with the river, and since RiverClan do not eat squirrels, they stay away from the forest. Before leaving, White-eye promises Hailstar that she would never fish again, while Dappletail mutters that she would not be having any more adventures.

====The Elders' Concern====
:The other ThunderClan elders accidentally wake up One-eye as they begin to discuss Fireheart's deputyship. Dappletail tells her to go back to sleep, adding quietly to the others that they would be talking all night if they tried to make One-eye hear them.
