## Description

Finstar is an average sized cat. His pelt fades from a dark blue into a green from top to bottom. On his face he has vibrant pink stripes. The tail fades into a yellow with the same vibrant pink as on his face.

## Personality

He has always been quite awkward, even during his leadership. Finstar wants to satisfy the ones around him as much as he can, but it often ends up in him burning out as he forgets to think of himself sometimes.

Peace is extremely important to him. Tired of the past wars between TempestClan and Beachclan.

## Life Events

When Finflash was out with Monsooncrash, their medicine cat, they received a sign by StarClan. The medicine quickly reacted and told Finflash that they needed to head to the moonstone as fast as possible. The young warrior obeyed Monsooncrash, and hurried with them towards the moonstone. Once arrived, they told him that they chose him as the new leader of BeachClan.

Once he received his nine lives and his new name, he quickly hurried back to camp. Finstar decided it was time for a change in the clans. During the first gathering he announced the death of his past leader, and to his suprise, TempestClan did the same. Jasminestar told the two clans that a devastating storm raged through their territory, destroying their camp. Finstar reacted on impulse, and told her that his clan would do anything to help them out. Not only that, he also spoke up about the past wars. Finstar told his clan that he wants peace between them. So helping out TempestClan would be a great start. Not everyone was happy with his plan, alot of the cats lost loved ones in the past fights.

After the gathering, Jasminestar and Finstar came up with an idea. TempestClan warriors could carry up some of the BeachClan warriors to help them recover their camp. Finstar agreed, hoping this would make the two clans get closer.

Soon, the first group of cats to help out TempestClan were send out. They were formed out of three warriors, Coastsplash, Sharkswirl and Shellwave. The leader felt anixous about the plan, but trusted Jasminestar that his warriors would be in good hands. Not that long after the group had been send out, his deputy Snooksplash came into his den with a worried look. Finstar quickly rushed out of his den, being met with an angry Coastsplash and Sharkswirl. Shellwave's dead body laying on the ground behind them, she was dropped into the ocean from the sky, the impact crushing her bones. Finstar got blamed, since it was his idea. Guilt quickly took over him, feeling horrible as he watched his friends yell at him. He felt hopeless, not knowing what to do next. He trusted TempestClan, but they broke their promises. What was he supposed to do next? Take revenge and risk another war, or keep up the peace and risk the trust of his clanmates?

His clanmates did not give Finstar a break as well. One of his warriors, Coastsplash had knocked out Kestrelpaw, the medicine cat of TempestClan. The she-cat thought she did something useful for the clan, and felt like she had to do something to take revenge on TempestClan for the murder of Shellwave. Finstar started to break down shortly after, he didn't show it to his clanmates but the stress of all the events started to mess with his body..

During one of the gatherings a fight broke out. Finstar broke the truce with TempestClan, and TempestClan indirectly accused BeachClan of the missing of their medicine cat. Finstar started to experience chest pains, they got worse as the tension at the gathering got worse as well. In the end, Coastsplash spoke up because she felt bad for her leader. She told Jasminestar that she knocked out their medicine cat, but that Finstar didn't know. After those words, a fight almost broke out but StarClan swiftly stopped the gathering.

Back at camp, Finstar's chest pains got worse and started to spread to his jaw and leg. He had a heart attack because of all the amount of stress that had been affecting his body. Finstar lost his first life in the middle of camp that day.

Moons past, and Finstar only started to doubt himself more. The current events were messing with his head, but as always the BeachClan leader was too stubborn to ask for help in his clan. The bottled up feelings made him snap during the gathering at Jasminestar. His emotions got the best of him, as the tom was almost crying infront of both clans. StarClan got mad, and lighting struck right behind the two leaders. Sharkswirl managed to convince Finstar to go home after, but the tom's emotions were still a mess. Afterwards, he retreated to his den. Everyone could notice something was wrong.

During a trip with his brother Algaepaw, Snooksplash and Sharkswirl, he lost his second life. Algaepaw got stuck inside of a whirlpool, and Finstar jumped in without a second thought. Once his brother was out, debris hit him repeatedly and he was unable to get out himself.

During one of the gatherings, the deputy of TempestClan accused Finstar of the killing of Kestrelpaw once again. The argument turned into a fight, and the two leaders struggled of the gathering place. Both losing a life.
