## Overview

Tigerstar was the spunky, level-headed leader of RiverClan. She was best known for her uncommon display of hospitality and sociability, and participation in the war against Whitefrost.

## Appearance

Tigerstar is a broad, abnormally large ginger tabby with darker undertones and a white highlight. She has hazel eyes with a blue tint, and sports an oddly thick pelt. Her scars are littered about her pelt, but her most major lie on her throat and the soft part of her underbelly.

## Basic History

### Early life

Tigerstar was born in RiverClan to Shadeflower and an unnamed RIverClan tom. She grew up a promising apprentice beside her siblings, and had a strong relationship with her sister, Mothdusk, and mentor, Snowstar.

### Deputy

Almost as quickly as she became a warrior, Tigersong was chosen to replace Whitefrost as Deputy of RiverClan. She did a lot of the heavy lifting for Snowstar as deputy, often organizing and leading attacks or creating treaties. During this time she met Skyfall and quickly developed feelings for the former kittypet, but due to complications between the two, she quickly turned to a new interest- Sundrop. Their relationship quickly blossomed, leading to them eventually becoming mates in secret.

### Life as a Leader

The beginning of Tigerstar's leadership was uneventful besides having to deal with her Clan's distase for Icetoes, her chosen deputy. Eventually, BloodClan began threatening RiverClan over complications involving Whitefrost. Tigerstar refused to bend to Rushstrike's wishes, and a border skirmish quickly lead to a war. RiverClan was allied with ThunderClan, ShadowClan, SkyClan, and The Tribe, leading them to a quick victory with very few losses. Around the start of the short-lived war, Tigerstar adopted Skyfall's 3 kits and Applekit, and aided her friend in covering up her mistakes with Pinesong with little suspicion involved. Eventually Tigerstar's relationship with Skyfall became strained, and they stopped talking. After the Medicine Cat's death, Tigerstar's relationship with Shellswirl also fell into ruin after Shellswirl chose to help BloodClan in training a new healer. At the time Shellswirl left, Whitestar rose to power with the help of Tansyspiller, and overthrew Tigerstar. Just as Whitestar took over, the nuclear reactor entered a meltdown in the twolegplace, and the territories were left in decay. She eventually regained her rightful power. Though Tigerstar never got to see where the Clans would go, she was a strong and promising leader, bringing her Clan much life and fruition during her reign.

## Lives

### Life of Trust

One of Tigerstar's former apprentices, Cinderfang, attacked Tigerstar in cold blood while she was alone on a quiet summer night. She'd grown to hate her mentor and saw her as weak. Both she-cats landed killing blows on eachother, earning Tigerstar a long scar running from her jaw to her shoulder.

### Life of Friendship

Though she extended her paw in friendship to an estranged warrior, Frozenfur still chose to drown Tigerstar 'in the name of StarClan.' There was a brief struggle, and Frozenfur was immediately sent to exile.

### Life of Justice

After regaining her strength and her voice, Tigerstar sought to attack Whitefrost after hearing what'd he'd done to WindClan and her Clanmates. She was quickly overwhelmed by Whitefrost's powers, and then impaled by a large icicle.

### Life of Strength

Even after recovering from being impaled, the hypothermia caused from Whitefrost's excessive use of his power was enough to take another one of Tigerstar's lives.

### Life of Confidence

As a forest fire raged through ThunderClan, Tigerstar thoughtlessly ran to their aid. She lost a life due to the smoke and debris she inhaled while saving her mate, Sunstar, and a ThunderClan apprentice, Streampaw.

### Life of Duty

Tigerstar drove the puma that'd been harassing RiverClan; stealing prey, land, and lives, over into a gorge, but cost her own life in doing so. The puma brought her down with him, successfully causing enough internal bleeding and water to seep into her lungs to kill her shortly after the fall. Before she passed she gave Lightpaw to Icetoes, and revealed her affairs with Sunstar.
