ShadowClan

ShadowClan is a Clan that lives by the Lake. They live in the pine forest and marsh, and specialize in hunting and fighting under the cover of darkness.

## Significant Leaders

### Shadowstar

Shadowstar's deputies were Sun Shadow and Raven Pelt. Her medicine cat was Pebble Heart.

Shadowstar was the founder of ShadowClan, establishing it in the marshy pine forest area of the Old Forest. She was strong-minded and was quick to fight for her Clan. Shadowstar was the first leader to lose all nine lives. In StarClan, Shadowstar guided her living Clanmates for countless seasons, but was driven out of Silverpelt by Rosecloud and the Dark Forest. Shadowstar guided her Clan's Chosen cats, and after they saved ShadowClan by finding a new and safe home, Shadowstar returned to StarClan.

### Ravenstar

Ravenstar's deputies were unknown, and his medicine cat was Peble Heart.

Ravenstar succeeded Shadowstar as the Clan's second leader. He led ShadowClan after Shadowstar's death, and is remembered as a brave leader who was dedicated to his Clan and the honour of a warrior.

### Tigerstar

Tigerstar's deputies were Tawnypelt, Cloverfoot, and Ravenheart. His medicine cats were Puddleshine and Shadowsight.

Many seasons after ShadowClan's founding, Tigerstar, named after his grandfather, restored ShadowClan after his father dissolved it and died. Tigerstar brought back displaced Clanmates, along with some Guardian Cats, rebuilding his broken Clan. After Cloverfoot retired, Tigerstar appointed Ravenheart as leader. Tigerstar was killed by a nasty infection from a dog bite that even StarClan couldn't cure.

### Ravenstar

Ravenstar's deputies were Darkpounce, Littlefox, and Shadowstalker. His medicine cats were Puddleshine, Shadowsight, and Larchnose.

The second Ravenstar succeeded his father as Clan leader. Ravenstar often doubted his abilities to be an authentic leader with good decision skills, but eventually learned those skills as the moons passed. Ravenstar led his Clan for over six years, being the most senior leader of the Clans for many moons.

### Shadowstar

Shadowstar's deputies were Sunshine and Mudpool. His medicine cats were Larchnose, and Sapwhisker.

The second Shadowstar led his Clan through the final battle to save the Clan founders and memories. During the battle, he was granted an eternal shadow that stayed with him permanently.

### Darkfur

Darkfur was acting leader when Shadowstar and Sunshine were unavailable due to obligations with their prophecy.

### Mudstar

Mudstar's deputy was Wolfsong, and his medicine cat was Sapwhisker.

Mudstar succeeded Shadowstar, and was close allies with Fangstar of ThunderClan.

### Wolfstar

Wolfstar was the last leader of ShadowClan. He became leader at a young age, and initially supported Bloodstar. However, upon learning about Bloodstar's tyranny, he decided to help Foxpelt overthrow him. Despite being the youngest Clan leader, he was killed by Redcough.

## Significant Medicine Cats

### Pebble Heart

Pebble Heart served under Shadowstar and Ravenstar's leaderships. His unofficial mentor was Cloud Spots.

Pebble Heart was ShadowClan's first medicine cat. He discovered herbs to cure rat bites from the Carrionplace, and was an expert in interpreting signs from StarClan from a very young age.

### Puddleshine

Puddleshine served under Rowanstar, Tigerstar, and Ravenstar's leaderships. His mentor was Leafpool, and his apprentice was Shadowsight.

Puddleshine became medicine cat against his will due to ShadowClan's lack of one. Despite training hastily, he was able to become a gifted healer with a strong connection to StarClan. He took Shadowpaw under his wing and trained him to be an expert at communicating with StarClan.

### Shadowsight

Shadowsight served under Tigerstar and Ravenstar's leaderships. His mentor was Puddleshine and his apprentice was Larchnose.

Shadowsight was born with an innate connection to StarClan, seeing and interpreting signs no other medicine cat would notice. He was the first cat to discover the prophecy of the Chosen cats, and guided their pawsteps. Shadowsight was killed by a Death Pebble.

### Larchnose

Larchnose served under Ravenstar and Shadowstar's leaderships. His mentor was Shadowsight and his apprentice was Sapwhisker.

Larchnose became the sole medicine cat only a few moons after earning his Clan name. This filled him with doubt, but he was able to adjust well and heal his Clan for many moons.

### Sapwhisker

Sapwhisker served under Shadowstar and Mudstar's leaderships. His mentor was Larchnose.

Sapwhisker always dreamed of becoming a medicine cat, and earned his name after healing his Clan when their founders and origins were at stake.

## Mediators

### Frogskip

Frogskip was ShadowClan's first mediator.
