## Personality

Sparkstar was fiercely ambitious and loyal, determined, tough, wise and kind-hearted always spoke her mind and not afriad to stand up for her clanmates. She has a natural gift for leadership.

She is deeply impacted by betrayal, as shown by her reaction to Brackenfoot and even her own brother Alderheart going against her own orders and the fire in the camp. She went into a state of mental breakdown and started to even blame Starclan and Thunderclan of being traitors. When Wisp appeared she started to come back to her senses and tried to talk to Wisp and Brackenfoot more and she realised that Wisp was infact her kit as she tells Brackenfoot "A mother never forgets their kits" but until Ripplestar and Wisp attack eachother she is deeply hurt that she can't do anything to stop her own kits from fighting eachother.

Until Brackenfoot tells them that Sparkstar is their mother witch Ripplestar and Wisp don't take well. While Wisp is shocked, Ripplestar is angry and hurt that someone he looked up to lied to him for so many years, and tells her coldly "She is not his mother" Then reveals it at the next gathering witch Sparkstar is hurt and starts to doubt herself as a leader and Brackenfoot starts to help her witch she is grateful for and later on after Shredtail death and her own she is forgivien by her children witch she says she can finally live in peace knowing that they forgive her for her actions.

                        ~Snowberry and Sparkpelt nine live ceremony~

Sparkstar and Snowberry never got along in her apprentice days and believed her rumors about her being creepy Snowberry wasn't very fond of Sparkpaw either and always thought of her as a distraction in Alderpaw training. But when Until she got the propchey about Sparkstar and Shredtail she tried to keep a close eye on her and Snowberry died saving Alderpaw from the burning camp, Sparkpaw mind on Snowberry had changed a lot and  grew to respect her and thought she was just misunderstood.

In Starclan she continued to watch over Alderpaw and Sparkpaw and she tried to warn Sparkpelt not to get close with Quickheart and but eventually they were expecting kits and Snowberry told Sparkpelt she cannot keep them and Sparkpelt hated the pressure she told Quickheart she can't raise them with him and he was hurt.

Sparkpelt thought about it and eventually choose to give up her kits and told Quickheart at the gathering witch he was angry but agreed and Snowberry felt guilty that both of her kits died and asked for Sparkpelt to forgive her when she was giving her one of her nine lives and Sparkpelt did forgive her but always felt that she could have chosen a different choice but she still respects Snowberry and knew it was for the best.

     ~Sparkpelt thoughts on Alderheart and Waterlily kits~

As her niece and nephew, Sparkstar loves Emberflame and Rainwhisker fiercely.  she interacts with the two of them as kits and feels a deep affection for them, feeling delight when the they play together, she feels a bang in her heart when she realizes that Rainwhisker looks and his eyes reminds her of her lost friend Waterlily and is saddened that Alderheart can have a happily family and she couldn't.

When Emberflame was leaving for the journey Sparkstar was worried that she couldn't protect her. she feels a need to protect Waterlily kits because she doesn't want them to end up like her own. When Emberflame is expecting kits with a Windclan cat Sparkstar is worried that she would end up like herself and when they return back she allows them back.

When Emberflame is dying Sparkstar is angry at Shredtail and she tries to comfort Rainwhisker but he is as angry as she is and yells at Vineheart to help his sister. When Sparkstar dies Rainwhisker comforts his father and Emberflame greets her along with Feathertail and Oakspring.

*"Sparkstar you have suffered and lost so much, and yet you still do your best to serve your Clanmates, putting their needs before yours, willing to sacrifice all for the sake of your Clan."*

Sparkstar is Brackenstar third and final mentor, Sparkstar allowed Oakspring to join Thunderclan to raise Brackenkit Sparkstar bond with Brackenfoot grew alot over the series,
Brackenstar looked up to Sparkstar greatly and even wanted to be a great warrior like she was, When Brackenfoot went behind her back to help Windclan against her orders Sparkstar had trouble trusting him but she realised what he did was for a good reason, She trusted him to be his deputy after Hawkfoot sudden death and trusted him enough to reveal that Ripplestar and Wisp are her kits.
When Sparkstar was dying Brackenfoot was devestated he begged her to stay with him that she still has so much to teach him but she tells him its her time and he is ready to lead Thunderclan greatly again. Brackenstar mourns her but knows she happier with her kin in Starclan.
Sparkstar gave him his 9th life, and Brackenstar still looks up to Sparkstar and heknows that he has to be his own cat.

### Shredtail

*"*"*You know already that I will kill you one day!. Your last breath will be gasped beneath my paws. Your last drop of blood will be soaked on my fur. Stones will break and the sky will be blood red and once your dead I can finally kill Gale's last kin one by one.*

                                                                         ~Shredtail to Sparkstar~

Sparkstar and Shredtail were enemies as soon as they meet each other, Shredtail had come to the forest to advenge his father and destroy Gale's kin as his final wish before fading away into nothing.

Shredtail had tried to kill Sparkstar twice the first time resulting in own death, His hatred grew for Sparkstar and her kin even being the cause of Wilds death. Shredtail had been the cause of Quickheart death and her Hatred for the cat grew very bitter despite him being her grandson witch she had found out when Wisp revealed it at their final confrontation.

Sparkstar had foiled his plans mutiple times, At final confrontation happened moons later it eventally lead to Shredtail and Sparkstar own deaths. Sparkstar had no regrets finally killing Shredtail and it resulting in her death, after her kits forgived her she happy she can finally leave without Shredtail threating the clans ever again.
