FeatherClan

## Description

Founded in the human year of 1766, this is one of the oldest clans in the forest. Residing on the east side of the island, it is a fairly large clan and has been mostly quiet and peaceful since Amberstar succeeded Featherstar as leader.

## Territory

FeatherClan live in a large territory consisting mostly of forest. Their territory includes a massive forest and ocean access. They share borders with MireClan and SpringClan.

## History

### Creation

FeatherClan was created immediately after the first clans from the very beginning. Tribe cats were migrating to the clans, but as time spent observing the clans and their leaders passed, Feather Drift decided the way the clans were to be run was not as well as it could be. He set off with his brother to start his own clan, to be run the way he wished for it to be, and did just that. At the beginning of his clan he had been able to recruit a good enough amount of warriors to defend their territory, members, and beliefs.

### Silverstar and the Fall of Rat Tail

It was not long after the creation of FeatherClan, formerly dubbed simply "Feather Drift's Group", that StarClan realized they did not like how the clan was being run. The group of cats did not hold steady to the rules and norms of the other clans, and they did not want that to continue. They struck down Feather Drift with sickness, the cat falling easily having not accepted the nine lives claiming doing so would have been an acceptance of StarClan and the code that it entailed. Rat Tail took over and led for a while, officially naming the group FeatherClan (Feather Drift had refuse to do so under the claims that it was entitled) and upheld his brother's beliefs in his leadership. A kitten was born to Pale Moon, who hadn't had a mate at the time, and existed solely for the purpose of destroying what was left of Feather Drift's existence. As killing the founder did not appear to be enough, she ended up having to kill Rat Tail, Sun-High Breeze, Casper, Talise, and Cole. Following the incident, Fire Bug fled from the clan.

### Featherstar and Amberstar

With the plan to completely erase any memory of Feather Drift and his posse so as not to encourage similar behavior in future generations, a kitten was born to Silverstar and named Feather so as to give the false impression that he was the founder. All did not go according to plan, however. Following Featherstar's rise to leadership and heeding the suggestion and training of his Dark Forest mentor, the leader went on a rampage and killed several FeatherClan cats, a great amount of MireClan cats, and a few others in between. The leader and his mate, who had both been involved in the murders, were exiled from the clan and continued their killings outside of it. Chickadee was taken down first at the paws of a MireClan patrol, leaving the ex-leader heartbroken. Amberstar, who had rose to leadership in the wake of Featherstar's exile, was able to track Featherstar down and kill him in the midst of his despair.

### Rogue Attack and the Death of Bigstar

Near the end of Bigstar leadership, the clan was attacked by a rogue group led by Saltwater. In the attack, Bigstar was killed and Ashheart joined the clan, fighting of the rogue's leader who she was the daughter of.

### Treason Committed by Deputy

During Whitestar's leadership, one of her deputies, Mossystone, committed treason by abandoning his position and the clan following an order from Whitestar that he was unwilling to fulfill.

### Cottonstar's Prophecy and the End of Saltwater's Group

As an apprentice, Cottonstar and his mate Ashheart were involved in a prophecy surrounding the clan. The fulfillment of it saw end to the rogue group that had been led by Saltwater.

### Deputy Killed in Accident with Monster

During Thunderstar's leadership, deputy Mothtail was killed an accident with a monster while rescuing Leopardmoth, who was an apprentice at the time. Leopardmoth went on to name herself and her kits after the deputy.

### Kit Taken by a Hawk

During Finchstar's leadership a kit was taken from camp by a hawk. The clan deputy of the time, Russetclaw, left in search of the kitten, but neither ever returned. Later, the kit's brother also left the clan in search of him.
