====Into the Wild====
:Fernkit is born to Brindleface and Whitestorm, along with Ashkit, Elderkit, and, Tulipkit.
====Fire and Ice====
:Fernkit and two of her siblings follow Brindleface out of the nursery, as Fireheart notes that the tabby queen had lost one of her kits shortly after being born. After losing another one of her siblings, she and her brother, Ashkit, gain Cloudkit as a foster brother after Brindleface agrees to take in the kittypet kit in. Cloudkit later leads the her and her brother out of camp during a snowstorm. The three are found by Fireheart and Sandstorm, and are promptly brought back to camp to a worried Brindleface and a cross Bluestar who scolds them.
:The young gray kit and her brothers follow a battle patrol out of camp. Tigerclaw scares the kits initially, before questioning them and ordering for Fireheart to deal with his kin. Brackenpaw is assigned to send them home, and the three follow the apprentice back to camp.
====Forest of Secrets====
:Fireheart spots her and her brothers with Brindleface in the camp clearing, and again after Thornpaw and Brightpaw's apprentice ceremonies. The tabby queen explains to Fireheart that the three of them needed to stretch their legs after the snow has kept them cramped in the nursery.
:After the battle with WindClan and ShadowClan, Brindleface brings her kits out to see what is going on. When Fireheart brings Graystripe's kits to the ThunderClan nursery, he sees Brindleface curled around her kits and Cloudkit. Before Cloudkit becomes an apprentice, he rushes to tell Fireheart about it, and Brindleface and her kits follow more slowly.
====Rising Storm====
:Fernkit is made an apprentice with the name Fernpaw, and is given Darkstripe as her mentor. She initially shrinks back from his touch and follows him across camp while giving Fireheart an anxious look before he sends her an encouraging one. The ginger tom spots her speaking with Dustpelt, which worries him first, but notices how relaxed and quiet their conversation is. He sends the warrior on the sunhigh patrol and Fernpaw asks to join, but is told to instead speak with Darkstripe about it.
:When ThunderClan evacuates their camp to Sunningrocks, following the fire, Fernpaw shares a frightened glance at her mentor as he berates Fireheart for allowing Yellowfang to head back to the burning forest. As the fire continues to spread, she is helped across the river by Dustpelt.
====A Dangerous Path====
:Fernpaw is one of the apprentices, along with Ashpaw, Thornpaw, and Brightpaw, that Swiftpaw gathers. When he suggests they go to attack the animals that were stealing the Clan's prey, she refuses to, though Brightpaw goes with him.
:Fernpaw tells Dustpelt when Brightpaw and Swiftpaw don't come back, and they go to tell Fireheart together. She tells him that they went to go and find out what was leaving a mess near Snakerocks, in an attempt to impress Bluestar. Dustpelt encourages her to speak, and he seems to have a strong liking for her.
:Brindleface, Fernpaw and Ashpaw's mother, is brutally murdered by Tigerstar, to give the dogs sheltering at Snakerocks a taste for cat blood. Fernpaw and Ashpaw are devastated by this. Angry and determined to avenge their mother's death, she and Ashpaw are some of the cats that run to lead the dogs over the gorge.
====The Darkest Hour====
:Fireheart spots Fernpaw and Ashpaw after they got rid of the dog pack, and he tells them that they did a good job. Fernpaw says that they knew that they had to keep the dogs away from the camp. Dustpelt comes up to Fernpaw and Ashpaw and tells them that they did brilliantly.
:After Firestar returns from Mothermouth, Fernpaw remarks that he would make a great leader. Dustpelt, who has obvious affections for her, agrees.

:Ferncloud is first seen washing herself at the entrance to the nursery while keeping a careful eye on her kits who are watching their older sibling, Shrewpaw, play-fighting with Whitepaw.
:When Firestar calls a Clan meeting to discuss the Twoleg monsters on ThunderClan territory, Ferncloud sweeps her tail protectively around her kits and cries out, asking what they're going to do. She is comforted by Dustpelt.
:As the prey supply diminishes, Dustpelt is concerned as Ferncloud is losing a lot of weight. Ferncloud cares for her weakening kits as the forest is slowly destroyed. With the prey nearly gone, Ferncloud does not eat enough, and as a result, her milk supply suffers. Larchkit soon dies of starvation, leaving Ferncloud devastated. She blames herself for Larchkit's death, even though it is not her fault.
:She is later sharing tongues with Dustpelt, who persuades her to eat a mouse to keep her strength up for her two remaining kits.
====Dawn====
:She is first seen when Brambleclaw, Squirrelpaw and Stormfur return from the Great Journey, hunched over her two remaining kits. She becomes angry at the returning cats, accusing them of leaving because they couldn't face leaf-bare with the rest of the Clan and noting that Brambleclaw and Squirrelpaw look better fed than the rest of ThunderClan. She later accepts fresh-kill from Brambleclaw, and Squirrelpaw notices how thin she has become and how small her kits are.
:Ferncloud does her best to care for her two remaining kits as the Clan is forced to shelter at Sunningrocks. Her milk supply grows shorter and Hollykit soon dies. She grieves and Cody persuades her to eat the poppy seed Cinderpelt has given her to soothe the pain. While Ferncloud sleeps, Cody looks after Birchkit.
:Shrewpaw, her son from her first litter is killed when his neck is broken on the Thunderpath while chasing a pheasant. This adds to Ferncloud's grief.

:She explains to Birchkit that Tallpoppy and her kits, Applekit, Toadkit and Marshkit, are from ShadowClan and that they will have to live separately when the Clans part. Ferncloud shares a look of regret with Tallpoppy and the kits say their goodbyes, before parting.
:Spiderpaw, her older son, charges ahead into the bushes and is stopped by Squirrelflight who prevents him from falling into the hollow. Ferncloud seems doubtful the hollow can become ThunderClan's new camp. She asks Brambleclaw to find her somewhere warm and dry for Birchkit for fear he will catch whitecough.
:Ferncloud helps make the new nursery by a bramble thicket. Birchkit tries to help but gets under Dustpelt's paws. Ferncloud tells him not to scold the kit, commenting that it is good that he is happy enough to play after all that has happened. Birchkit almost falls from the top of the hollow after he tries to follow a patrol. He is rescued by Brambleclaw, and Dustpelt sends him back to Ferncloud.

Squirrelflight reassures Dustpelt that she is safe and unwounded.
====Sunset====
:Ferncloud worries that Dustpelt has been killed by the badgers and gets Brambleclaw to help her look for him. They find him alive and the pair greet each other happily. She sits beside Birchpaw as he waits for treatment and licks his shoulder comfortingly. She stays with him while Leafpool treats his wounds.
:When Daisy considers leaving, Ferncloud asks her to stay, trying to persuade her that things will be easier once it is newleaf.
:Firestar later calls a meeting and she sits beside Leafpool who reassures her that Birchpaw will be fine.

She tells Leafpool she is glad she returned and that she is 'a wonderful medicine cat'.

:When she gives birth to Icekit and Foxkit, Daisy helps to take over care of Lionkit, Hollykit, and Jaykit. She snaps at Jaykit when he lands on Foxkit and Icekit, although they are not hurt and she is not angry for long. She seems doubtful Jaykit will be able to become an apprentice, being blind, but does not say this. She sends them outside to play.
:When the fox den is announced, Ferncloud voices her fears that the cubs will find the camp. It is mentioned that she is in the nursery with Daisy when Jaykit, Lionkit and Hollykit sneak out of camp. She is distressed when Jaykit falls from the top of the hollow.

:She attends the clan meeting to decide which of Graystripe and Brambleclaw will remain deputy, sitting beside Millie.

:She becomes ill with greencough, but under Jaypaw and Leafpool's care, she quickly recovers.

====Dark River====
:Ferncloud continues to care for her latest litter of kits, Icekit and Foxkit. She shoos her kits away from the nursery while Graystripe and Millie reinforce the den with brambles in case of battle.

:During the WindClan invasion, she and some other warriors stay behind to guard the camp. When Dustpelt and Foxpaw are leaving, she seems sad to say good-bye to one of her kits, probably because of Shrewpaw, Hollykit and Larchkit's death in the old forest.

:Dustpelt gets ill and Ferncloud won't allow him to go on patrol despite his protests. She asks Jaypaw if there's anything she can do to help and he asks her to get Thornclaw to eat some fresh kill when he wakes. When Firestar gets ill, she questions what will happen if he dies; she is sure WindClan and RiverClan will attack again.
:She helps prepare the abandoned Twoleg nest for the sick cats. She tries to go to Dustpelt, but Birchfall bars her way so she won't catch the sickness and she buries her head in his shoulder, upset. She is chosen to attend the Gathering along with Brambleclaw, Dustpelt, Graystripe, Cloudtail, Cinderheart, Leafpool and Jayfeather.

====Sunrise====
:She sits with Brightheart, Brackenfur and Sorreltail, and listens to Thornclaw as he tells the Clan how it must have been WindClan who murdered Ashfur and that they must lead a raid on them.

===In the Omen of the Stars arc===
====The Fourth Apprentice====
:Ferncloud remains in the nursery with Daisy, even though neither she-cat is expecting kits. After Leopardstar makes claims to the lake's fish, she is sympathetic about how thin and weak RiverClan looked, and tries to convince Firestar, Brambleclaw, and Dustpelt to just let them have the fish.
:Ferncloud is one of the few cats that feel sympathetic towards Rainstorm, asking if he can have some fresh-kill, but the idea is quickly put down.
:When her mate, Dustpelt, hurts his back on a patrol, she makes him see Jayfeather, claiming him to be annoying and complaining over it.
:When Jayfeather is looking for Poppyfrost, Ferncloud tells him that she isn't in the nursery, and she probably just went out to stretch her legs or take a drink of water. She is puzzled instead of worried and escorts Daisy back to the nursery, who is frantic.
:She is present during Poppyfrost's kitting, and tells Berrynose that he is blocking the light that they needed, and that he really isn't helping. She happily reports to Poppyfrost that her first kit is a tom.
====Fading Echoes====
:She is seen exiting the nursery when Poppyfrost's kits, Molekit and Cherrykit are playing outside. It is said that she and Daisy prefer to stay in the nursery to help any new queens with their kits and that they have helped raise so many kits that young apprentices are more likely to turn to them for advice than the elders. She alerted the Clan when the RiverClan cats, Mistystar and Mothwing, entered the camp. She swished her tail on the ground to tell Molekit and Cherrykit to go back to their mother in the nursery.
:When Briarpaw is injured by the falling tree, she comforts Graystripe and Millie, telling them that Jayfeather is doing all he can. She seems hopeful when she sees Leafpool is helping him.
====Night Whispers====
:Ferncloud helps the other queens in the nursery.
====The Forgotten Warrior====
:Ferncloud first appears at Molekit and Cherrykit's apprentice ceremony. She and Daisy congratulate Brackenfur when he announces that Sorreltail is once again expecting kits. Ferncloud is overjoyed at the news. She touches her muzzle to Sorreltail's shoulder and welcomes her back to the nursery.
:When Sol returns to ThunderClan, she is seen speaking in undertones to Dustpelt and Squirrelflight.
:Daisy also mentions that she and Ferncloud had made an excellent nest when Sorreltail decides to move back into the nursery a half-moon before her kits are born.
:When Sorreltail wanders out of camp and then begins to kit, Ferncloud and Brackenfur race to help her. Dovewing is reassured to know the most experienced queen in the Clan is going to help. Ferncloud gives wet moss to Sorreltail so she can drink, and Dovewing thanks her. She also breaks some fennel stalks and trickles the juice into Sorreltail's mouth. When Sorreltail gives birth, Ferncloud announces the first kit, a she-kit. She promises Sorreltail the kits will be fine, even after seeing how small and weak they are, and carries one back to camp. In the nursery, Ferncloud and Daisy lick the two kits while Sorreltail rests.
:She is briefly mentioned to be sharing tongues with Daisy outside the nursery entrance shortly after Sorreltail gives birth.
:When Dovewing and Ivypool go missing in the tunnels, Ferncloud pops her head out of the nursery to listen to the news, then goes back inside.
:Ferncloud is in the center of the circle crowded around Mousewhisker and Cherrypaw after they eat water hemlock. Daisy expresses worry for her son, and Ferncloud comforts her.
:She is last seen promising to defend Sorreltail and her kits if WindClan warriors invade the camp.
====The Last Hope====
:When Jayfeather gets grumpy, he hisses at Cherrypaw for trampling on her moss. Ferncloud is seen by the nursery gossiping with Daisy. She pokes her head out of the nursery when Firestar is almost ready to go to the Gathering.
:Ferncloud marches from the nursery and grabs a shrew from Bumblestripe, telling him that Brightheart would appreciate the shrew more than he would. Ferncloud later has a bellyache, so Cinderheart checks up on her. Jayfeather picks a few chervil roots for her bellyache. When Jayfeather visits StarClan, he tells Longtail that Ferncloud still ruled the nursery as ferociously as any warrior.
:Ferncloud is seen gasping when the Clan finds out the Dark Forest warriors can cross onto a Clan's territory. She says she won't let anyone hurt Brightheart's newborn kits.
:Before the battle, she is seen with Daisy pacing outside the nursery, the fur on her and Daisy's spines sticking up like thorns. She promises to Brightheart that no cat will touch her kits.
:In the battle with the Dark Forest, she is seen hissing from the entrance of the hollow, calling the Dark Forest cats cowards. Ferncloud defends the nursery with Daisy and Brightheart. She growls that the camp had been destroyed from the attack.
: When the Dark Forest retreats, Brokenstar remains and plucks her out of the nest by her neck, killing her in the process. Dustpelt is distraught when he sees her body. Her grown kits surround her, grief swallowing them all. When Dustpelt gets angry with the bystanders and his kits, Firestar replies saying there was nothing they could do to have possibly saved her, and she died honorably. Amberkit asks why Ferncloud is asleep, and Snowkit says that she is just tired from fighting, and Dustpelt will come to wake her up.
:When Firestar's spirit goes to StarClan, Dustpelt asks Firestar to tell Ferncloud that he loves her. When Ferncloud's spirit follows, the kits exclaim that she is awake, and she nods her head towards Dustpelt before leaving with StarClan.

:She draws her kits protectively towards her when a badger is reported on their territory and doesn't seem convinced that they are safe, despite Firestar telling her he sent Cloudtail's patrol to track it. When Willowpelt is killed by the badger, Cinderpelt takes Sootpaw, Rainpaw, and Sorrelpaw to the nursery to be looked after by Ferncloud and Brightheart.

====Graystripe's Vow====
:Ferncloud gossips with a heavily pregnant Brightheart, mentioning that Firestar's scent had faded from camp. The two queens wonder if he had truly left for a mission from StarClan, as Ferncloud adds that Dustpelt thinks the ginger tom had returned to his kittypet roots. However, the pale gray queen isn't sure if she believes her mate's wondering and also feels as though he doesn't truly either.
:When Brightheart's kits are born, Ferncloud ushers her two sons away from the new queen. She tells the two kits that Whitekit is far too small to play with them yet, adding that they'll have to wait a couple days. The gray queen and her kits then attend Graystripe's Clan meeting to hear what Thornclaw and his patrol report upon their return. When Graystripe mentions Gremlin and her brother, joining ThunderClan, Ferncloud is beside Brightheart and Cloudtail as the white-and-ginger queen argues against letting the BloodClan queen join. Ferncloud later agrees with the notion of trusting Gremlin's inside knowledge of BloodClan when Graystripe reveals the impending attack on them. She also has some say in a suggestion that Dustpelt forwards to Graystripe about letting Gremlin and her kin stay in ThunderClan until Firestar's return.
:Graystripe appoints Ferncloud and Brightheart to defend the nursery against BloodClan. The queens protect the nursery and after Fury, BloodClan's latest leader, is defeated, Ferncloud shoots a baleful glare at her as she leaves ThunderClan's camp. The morning following, the gray queen and Brightheart sun themselves Shrewkit and Spiderkit play fight and Whitekit watches curiously.

:She is mentioned as one of the cats having lost their life during the Great Battle, by one of the many claw marks represented on a branch with no bark under the Highledge. Ferncloud is mentioned when Squirrelflight tells Bramblestar about Dustpelt sometimes waking up yowling, and not being able to save her.

====Ivypool's Heart====
:Upon visiting StarClan with Icewing and Galestar, Ivypool spots Ferncloud watching three kits, including Rowankit, and greets her, remembering how Ferncloud had cared for her as a kit. Ferncloud is pleased to see her, asking if Ivypool has died, to which Ivypool responds that she has not. As Galestar tells the story of her relationship with Stripestar, Ferncloud is horrified, questioning how they hid their relationship. Soon after, when Ivypool and Icewing bring the wildcats to Tumble Leap and Stalk Purr, she tells Dovewing about Ferncloud watching over Rowankit in StarClan, which pleases her sister.
