Firestar's personality seems to be very courageous and dedicated, he always dose things that he thinks are right, even if it went against the warrior code. Even if Firestar's ideas don't always work, his strength, courage, kindness, and loyalty leads him to be a strong built leader and point of view. Firestar's last words were “I will not die until the forest is safe from you" ...read more.
I like Firestar so much! He saved the clans multiple times and did the best for his clan, Thunderclan. He saved the clans from Scourge. He saved the clans from two legs. He saved the clans from Tigerstar and the dark forest. But how come he died by a TREE?! Even if he has to die it doesn't mean he has to die by a tree!

This cat is over rated (srry fire stars fans) but although he's so powerful and all that scourge is amazing and he deserved to live. I like how he was crushed by a tree.. But yeah. He's too overrated Erin hunter should if focused on other cats more.
He is not only brave, loyal, clever, and understanding but, he saved the clans! Without him clans would be completely under control or dead! Also, his peaceful, thoughtful, and he had just a big a chance of killing Tigerstar as scourge did. (I HATE SCOURGE / I understand his life sucked but then he became a savage, evil, cruel, murderous cat and even said "Oh yes, blood is everything. But the only blood I'm interested in flows from my enemies. Look around you! " But he even admits to loving to kill cats and dogs 99.99% of the time for no good reason. I HATE SCOURGE) On top of this stuff about Firestar he also killed Scourge and Tigerstar (Dark forest). Even after death he is still the worlds best character in the books ever! And I love that he helps EVERYONE that needs it. He is truly the most thoughtful. (Sorry for the rant about Scourge but seriously hate him) So in conclusion, Firestar should be voted in the best warrior cat character.
I vote for Firestar. He such a peaceful warrior. Also he fought for the clan and he did not kill Tigerstar even when he is a bad cat. He is also very smart because he planed how to kill the dog pack. He also mentored a lot of cats that were training how to become warriors. I advice you to read the warriors cats book and then type on this website that Firestar is your best warrior cat.
Plus I also love Graystripe because he brought Firestar to Thunderclan and if he did not there would be no such book called warriors cats.

Bluestar. . .she was a good leader. She was the reason Rusty became Firestar. But then she went crazy because of her deputy Tigerstar(who was Tigerclaw back then)turned out to be a traitor. And then, after that, she thought Starclan had betrayed her because of the fire that raged through the Thunderclan camp/territory. But soon, at the end of Rising Storm, she was once again the true Bluestar.
-Amberblaze of Dawnclan
I've ranted about Bluestar long enough. She's whiny, a brat pretty much in Bluestar's Prophecy, being sad and upset for moons when Snowfur and Moonflower die. When you're a warrior cat, your family members will die in battle, and it's not as shocking as in the real world, because everyone has a short life in Warriors. She went insane for three books, gave her kits away on a grain of salt, (Thistleclaw never killed anyone), and got her own kit killed anyway. Actually, if she'd never met with Oakheart in the Trees, the whole thing with the kits wouldn't of happened. She was a good leader for two books. I hate her. I'm sorry.
She can't get over kins deaths and ends up suffering from dementia. Let's start when she's rude to thistleclaw and technically steals his kit away from him.He's justsad that his ,ate died and Bluefur has to act like a brat.No offence but she's not my favorite character! - Leaf?
Bluestar was amazing. She really dedicated herself to her Clan and worked hard to become leader. She realized that Thistleclaw wouldn't be a good Clan leader and that lead up to the death of Mosskit. I understand she was trying to do what was the best of her Clan, and I appreciate that she was willing to take the risk of bringing her kits through a blizzard to bring them to RiverClan. I know that she went a little bit crazy at the end of her life, but who can blame her? Her father never liked her much, she had watched her sister get hit by a car and then break the news to her son, hear about Oakheart's death and have to pretend she didn't care, give her kits away and watch her daughter freeze to death. I don't care what other people say, Bluestar is a flawed yet wonderful character.

Uhh.. I like JayFEATHER better. He is the definition of tough love. The way he treats all his patients. It makes me laugh. I remember one time. He was treating Birchfall. And this is what he said
"Aren't you meant to be more (forgot the word.. sympathetic or kind I don't know.)- BIRCHFALL complained.
"If you want sympathy you can go to the nursery." Jayfeather retorted.
That cracked me up, because he was just treating a splinter. Over all.. I think he is definitely overrated but I still love him. <3
He was such a good med cat even though he wanted to be a warrior. He fought his disability and never cared what another cat thought of him. He saved cinderheart from a future as a med cat for the second time and his heart was always in the right place despite how cats were to him and how many times he was stood against. I felt so bad for him after hollyleaf went crazy, and I totally ship him and half moon even though neither of them were, or would ever be, official mates. Great cat, and I'm on book 2 of Omen of the Stars so I hope it only gets better from here-Shadesplash of NightClan
I think Jayfeather is the most interesting warrior cat character. When I first started reading about him his personality was new and interesting! I love how sarcastic and grumpy he is. His power is also very interesting and his sarcastic lines are hilarious. Honestly, he is kind of a jerk sometimes, but that makes him even more fun to read about! I love how he does show his soft side sometimes too, with Briarlight and with Half Moon. I also thought it was very sweet how sad he was when Leafpool died. I also love his dedication to the clans despite his bad temper. I love how he doesn't care about whatever other cats think and stays strong despite being depended on greatly because of the prophecy, being accused of murder, getting the truth spilled out, and much 0more. He is definitely my favorite out of the three.
Jayfeather has so much character development. He goes from feeling lonely due to not seeing the emotions of other cats to being able to take clues on how they are feeling.
Many of the warriors characters are made to be perfect, but Jayfeather isn't and that's part of his character that makes him interesting.
When the three lose their powers, Jayfeather suffers the least because he doesn't need them any longer and he learns.
Sure, his treatment of Brightheart was really unfair, but I could understand that because it made him feel left out and that Firestar thought he wasn't like other cats.
Also, Jayfeather's personality is great! He so different from your average rolemodel but in a good way.

GREYSTRIPE is EVIL! He killed Clawface in cold blood. Then in the battle with Bloodclan he could have just bitten darkstripe and made him run away or something. But he didn't. He just ruthlessly killed him, and actually instead of showing remorse after he just said, "one less traitor in the forest" like he was proud of what he'd done. he is a sadistic killer and deserves to go to the df. Also Darkstripe was his half brother. And he broke the warrior code to see some stupid riverclan cat, neglecting his warrior duties, being nasty to his friend and then purposefully attacking fireheart for no reason at all.
Graystripe was an idiot. But that was mostly Silverstream's fault. I just don't get what he sees in her. They didn't grow up together. And Graystripe only loved her because of her beautiful looks. And he left ThunderClan, Betrayed RiverClan, and left ThunderClan again. He's not a terrible character. That is more than I could say for Silverstream. But he needs to make better decisions.
Graystripe is an amazing and an outstanding warrior. I love and I am a HUGE fan. I have all the books except for ones who come this year and by far he has been the best and funniest. I love him so much. He's my favorite and I love to draw pics about him. The only thing I didn't like was when he became an elder. That was sad. Also in the first book of the first series:into the wild: towards the end when he and firepaw were fighting Shadowclan Graypaw found the kits yelling : the kits! : and when the patrol got back home Whitestorm gave credit to firepaw. But Graystripes great and I am so so glad that he lived through every series. I love him! Graystripe!
Graystripe. hmm. I dislike him. He broke the warrior code to be with Silverstrean. He attacks Fireheart. He leaves ThunderClan. He leaks information to ThuderClan while in Riverclan. And he comes back to ThunderClan and becomes deputy!
WHAT THE HECK!
Graystripe is horrible. I don't like him and never will. But Silverstream is 1000 times worse.

She is by far my favorite medicine cat of all time. She went through so much. Not being able to stay a warrior, not allowed to take Raggedstar as a mate, (Even though he was kind of a jerk), and having to give up her own kit. Then she had to watch her own kit grow up without a mother, and sad. Then having to deal with Brokentail killing Raggedstar (I never understood how), and many innocent lives including kits. Then being kicked out and betrayed by her clan and left to die. And to top it all off, having to kill her own son in the end to stop his murderous ways. She is not only my favorite medicine cat, but my favorite cat of all.
Yellowfang had such a depressing backstory. She went through so much, not being able to stay a warrior, not allowed to take Raggedstar as a mate, (Even though he was kind of a jerk), and having to give up her own kit. Then she had to watch her own kit grow up without a mother, sadly. Then having to deal with Brokentail killing Raggedstar (I never understood how), and many innocent lives including kits. Then being kicked out and betrayed by her clan and left to die. And to top it all off, having to kill her own son in the end to stop his murderous ways. But she did the right thing, anyway. So I'm proud. Spottedleaf was one of my favorites in the start, and the same at the end.
Yellowfang got a crap ton of undeserved punishment that was very unjust compared to other cats. She had to go through the hardships of not being able to be a warrior, two of her kits dying, her son being horrible, being blamed by said son about killing kits, being exiled, having to kill her own son, and then dying a slow and painful death. she was a very caring medicine cat but I do believe that she would have liked to carry on with Raggedstar for longer than she was allowed.
Yellow fang is my favorite cause, yes she was cranky and stubborn, at first. But as the books carried on she got more welcoming and warm. she was just so fun to read about cause you never knew what mood she was in. She would either be jokey (is that even a word? lol) and easy to work with or cranky and stubborn. Even though she was born in shadow clan she was not afraid to be in any battle with thunder clan. If we're being completely honest here, Yellow fang was the only death I cried to, and the time I was reading "the rising storm" I was in middle school, now I'm in high school. The Erin Hunters know just the right strings to pull to get anyone crying. My friend, who doesn't easily cry, cried at Bluestar's death. Now I'm on sunset and I still cry every time I reread Yellow Fang's death.

Cinderpelt. She had a sad life. All she wanted was to be a warrior. Then she hurts her leg and can't. She becomes a medicine cat, but then she starts to like Fireheart(star)
and can't be with him because of a certain code. Then Yellowfang dies and her apprentice goes away in the future. And whoops, Cinderpelt dies. WHY? She was such an amazing cat who sacrificed so much. Cinderpelt should be second on this list. Behind Firestar of course.
Her leg stopped her dream but she saved lives and kept going. I knew it would be Firestar and Blue stars at the top but I think Squirrel flight and Conderpelt should be further up
Cinderpelt...
She's a very great character.
She wanted to be a warrior so much, but she was run over by a monster.
Then she go to the medicine cat's den to be apprenticed like a medicine cat by Yellowfang, that becomes like a mother for her.
She got a trauma with Silverstream's death.
Then Yellowfang dies, ANOTHER TRAUMA! She was very very sad..
She apprentice Leafpool. They grew so closer, but, in the badger attack, she died saving Sorreltail's kits.
She reborn in Cinderheart, but later her spirit rise to Starclan and lets Cinderheart follow her own path.
Omg, I love Cinderpelt! I think she doesn't deserved to die.
She had a SAD life. She wanted to become an warrior and be mates with lionheart but an stupid monster hit her and gets an crippled leg! Because that she couldn't be with lionheart and couldn't be a warrior. Then she had to be an medicine cat because she couldn't do anything else. Then a badger attack happens. Then a badger goes into the nursery and tried to attack Soreltail and her kits. That's when Cinderpelt sacrificed her life to save Soreltail and her kits. Soreltail better thank Cinderpelt for saving her. The good thing is that she gets a second chance. This lifetime was really happy! She got to be with lionheart and got to be a warrior! It was beautiful.

Loyalties questioned bc of who his father was. He couldn't help it! He was born to Tigerstar and he can't change it. He is a loyal cat who picks Thunderclan and stays away from his father
Great, great characters until Bramblestar's Storm was released! In that series, all he does is try to be like Forester to be too 'nice' to everyone. When wind clan cats growl at him to get off the border, he just says sorry and they leave immediately! This is not the cat that was portrayed in the four series by Erin Hunter. Bramblestar's Storm had too many problems with it, and was my least favorite of the special edition series. (Only read forester's quest) so there might be worse ones. I really enjoyed Forester's Quest so read that one and honestly you really don't have to read Bramblestar's Storm if you don't want to.
I like him because even though he is the son of tigerclaw he is a brave and loyal cat unlike his father. He also becomes deputy.
I think he belongs with squirrelflight and I'm glad she chose him over ashfur. I DON'T like ashfur and I'm not sure why.
I also like the fact that he killed his brother and most cats didn't trust him so he wasn't fully excepted into the clan. I also like the fact that when fireheart was deputy he kept seeing brambleclaw and seeing the darkness in him even though there isn't any darkness.
HE IS MY favorite CAT!
There are plenty of things I don't like about Brambleclaw, but there are two things that I absolutely hate about him, how he treated Squirrelflight while they were apart, and his leadership style.
Brambleclaw was an absolute jerk to Squirrelflight. It's a wonder Squirrelflight was even considering him as a romantic option, in my opinion. He complained of 'Squirrelflight won't talk to me because I talk to Hawkfrost! ' Even though he does nothing to try and change this, for instance, he could of TALKED to squirrelflight instead of doing absolutely nothing. Moonkitti actually talks about this is in one of her 'I Spoil' videos.
Bramblestars leadership is one of the things I hate most about the current Thunderclan. He tries way to hard to be just like Firestar. 'What would Firestar have done? ' 'I need to be like Firestar! ' Bramblestar needs to learn that being just like Firestar isn't going to help him in the long run, and that he just needs to be himself.

Squirrelflight has always been an inspirational role model. She is brave, empathetic, driven to do what is right, loyal, and fun-loving. She has so much love to give and readily prepared herself to do anything for those she loves.
She's just the best. She always tried to protect her Clan, even if she disobeyed the code. Squirrelflight just screams #BOSS, because she has her own ways of doing things while still protecting those in need and saving her Clan. Squirrelflight also has feelings for every cat, like whenever she showed Leafstar the territory beyond the lake in Squirrelflight's Hope. She knew she could get in trouble, but she kept going just for peace. And whenever she followed Brambleclaw in Midnight, she was protecting the Clan by seeing if he was breaking the code. In the end, she became a hero, making her one of the best Warriors characters!
My favorite character out of every cat even Firestar. She goes through so much but I can't help but laugh when she goes girl boss
Squirrelflight is my favourite cat because of her wonderful fiery personality. She is reckless, brave, mischievous, sassy, absolutely breaking the previous generic she-cat personality of being more submissive and meek (Of course with exceptions, like Silverstream) I love how she was just so annoying to Brambleclaw, testing his patience throughout the journey to the sun-drown place and back. Brambleclaw also seemed to want to protect Squirrelpaw, probably since she was an apprentice, but ultimately, Squirrelpaw was the one to- albeit stupidly- jump into the water first, before the Riverclan cats, to save Brambleclaw from drowning. In summary, Squirrelflight is an amazing cat with an amazing personality, and my absolute favourite cat in the Warriors series.

Leafpool is my favorite character and I'm really happy that she's such a loved character is the Warriors fnadom! She deserves respect more than any other character ( yeah, even more than Firestar :) )
My Opinion: Leafpool lived one of the most tragic lives. She was a great medicine cats, sweet, kind, quiet, caring, and loyal. She regrets falling in love with Crowfeather, it was her biggest mistake, one she couldn't change. Her heart was always in the right place when she gave up her kits, like Bluestar. She was judged harshly, but she never deserved it.
Description: Small lithe pale brown tabby she-cat with amber eyes, and white paws and chest.
I agree with Leafpool's wise words: Destiny isn't any path a cat follows blindly. It is always a matter of choice, and sometimes the heart speaks loudest. Deep down, I always knew what I had to do, and that's why I came back to the Clan. Whatever happens, I trust you know the right thing to do as well. Listen to your heart Lionblaze, because that's where your true destiny lies.
-Leafpool to Lionblaze in Sign Of the Moon, page 108.
She always wanted the best, may her memory not be in vain...She deserves more than this.
Leafpool. One of the most tragic stories in my opinion. Those who say they hate Leafpool, should read Leafpool's Wish. It shows insight into what kind of pain you would have to go through to give up your own children, in order to save the Clan. She gave them up otherwise the Clan would practically perish with no medicine-cat or medicine-cat apprentice. Even afterwards, after sacrificing her children to the Clan, the Clan turns their back on her, she is stripped of her position. Although, she does get her position back, she must have felt so alone, with only Squirrelflight to comfort her. Her own kits turned their backs on her, Hollyleaf even trying to run away when she found out and then returning and dying in front of Leafpool's eyes. Hollyleaf died, Lionblaze killed cats and Jayfeather practically abandoned her. She never got the chance to be a mother, she only got to watch squirrelflight and Bramblestar care for the kits that she wanted her and Crowfeather to raise. She didn't mean ...more
She never really wanted to have a family with Crowfeather. She was young and in love with him. No cat can blame her for her mistakes, and she worked to fix them. She didn't deserve to be found out because of Hollyleaf. That dumb cat is my least favorite EVER. She handled the situation well and was a good medicine cat for her Clan, as well as being good to all the kits that remained in ThunderClan. - Shadesplash of NightClan

Dovewing is probably one of the most misunderstood characters. Many people say she's a Mary Sue, but proceed to list her flaws? I thought Mary Sue's had no flaws other than being too perfect. Sure, she was angry and annoyed about having her powers, but we would all be the same if we were in her place. From her birth, she was placed with so much pressure to save the clans, when she just wanted to be a normal warrior. She also saved the clans from the draught, against many peoples' opinion, may have made the clans leave the lake. She also fought hard against the dark forest.
Another reason people seem to hate Dovewing is because they LOVE Ivypool. I know you like one of them better, but please don't hate on one sister to make the other's reputation go up. That goes for both Dovewing fans and Ivypool fans. Thank you!
Hater alert. I know so many of you love Ivypool and hate Dovewing. But I love her, and when she first found out about her powers, her sister began to hate her, but Dovewing stayed loyal to her sister, she didn't hate her. When Ivypool came back from the Dark Forest one night (Or was she an apprentice? ) she had scratches all over her and Dovewing (Dovepaw? ) got a thorn or something to back her up. And all she did was ignore Dovewing, by thanks. Many of you say Ivypool went to the Dark Forest to spy, and that's oh so brave, but she did it of pure jealousy. She wanted to be better than her sister, she wanted to beat her sister and be the best warrior. Dovewing will always have a place in my top tens
Dovewing is a pretty good character. At first I thought she was a Mary Sue, but I changed my mind later in the series. She went into self-exile, and she went through a lot. She deserves this spot on the list and her sister is great too! I feel like a lot of people call characters Mary Sues or hate them for reasons thadon't really show signs of anymore.
For example, in my opinion Dovewing was a borderline Mary Sue while she was a late appprentice and early warrior. Now she isn't.
Another example, which is sadly extremely common is about Ivypool being mean and jealous all the time. Yes she was grouchy and jealous, but now she's not.
So. Dovewing haters, Ivypool haters, stop being immature and back off.
Dovewing is an amazing charactter in my opinion. People call her a mary sue even though she has so many flaws, it's a bit confusing. She is sweet and I loved reading her point of view. And after she lost her powers she was scared, I mean, she had the powers her entire life, imagine if you were her. You would freak out as well. So what if she doesn't like Bumblestripe, there are so many reasons to dislike Bumble. Bumblestripe took out all his anger on Dove and would do anything for them to be together. I am so glad that Dovewing left him for Tigerheart. Though I do have to agree that their love was a bit rushed. "She stalked Tigerheart! " She loved him, why not use her powers to make sure her lover is safe? Is that so wrong?! "She broke the warrior code! " So did Firestar, Leafpool, Yellowfang, JAYFEATHER, and almost every single cat in the Clans! "She named one of her kits Shadowkit! " Who cares?!

I wish he lived longer! He would have the very very best deputy EVER. He was just so loyal, kind patient. All those good stuff. I just love him. Got nothing else to say.
In memory of Whitestorm:
Loyal cats trust
Kind cats give
Loving cats care
Brave cats fight
Wise cats teach
Merciful cats forgive
Whitestorm trusted his Clanmates. He gave his life for them. He cared about his family. He fought for what he believed in. He taught the younger cats important lessons. And in StarClan, his final resting place, he has forgiven those who have done him wrong. All I have left to say is thank you, Whitestorm. For trusting, giving, caring, fighting, teaching, and forgiving. We love you and miss you. When you died, a part of us died, too. You will never be forgotten. You live on in all our hearts.
Thank you for inspiring us to trust others. To give to others. To care for others. To fight with others. To teach others. And to forgive others, most of all. As long as these lessons remain, we will never have to say a final goodbye.
Whitestorm was a ThunderClan warrior. He was loyal to his clan and believed in the warrior code. He didn't deserve to die, but bad cats will always show up. Whitestorm was also wise, caring, and forgiving. He really did deserve to be deputy.
Whitestorm is such a brave warrior that didn't deserve to die. He showed loyalty above all and respected the warrior code; his loyalty to Bluestar and Firestar were off the charts. Whitestorm is also very responsible. Firestar mentioned in The Darkest Hour that he kept his fur well groomed, and he was also a very loyal friend to Bluestar. He followed Fireheart's orders when he was deputy, and in Spottedleaf's Heart it mentioned that Whitepaw was so nice to Spottedkit while still staying that responsible, noble warrior that we need in our hearts.

Her birth broke the warrior code, and she killed Ashfur in fear of him revealing the truth over her family. She lived in the tunnels for a while, before rejoining ThunderClan. Hollyleaf was slain by Hawkfrost and spent her last moments with her mother Leafpool saying her last words ”I couldn’t bear to… to leave without knowing my mother.” ...read more.
Hollyleaf is such a great character. She killed Ashfur and I think that if he wouldn't died he would have cause way more damages than what really happened. When she was at the tunnels she was really kind with Fallen leaves and even tought she was obsess with warrior code and she broke it doesn't matter, because the 2 times that she broke it was really understandable.
At the end she must be understand for what she did. She even saved Ivypool with her own life and that shows how bold she is, how good and how great she is and will be forever.
Holly has a reason for everything. She killed Ashfur because he would've spilled, plus he almost killed them.
She revealed the truth because the clans had a right to know that someone was breaking the code.
She threatened to kill Leafpool because she felt betrayed and heartbroken.
She didn't come back to ThunderClan and stayed with Fallen Leaves because she felt ashamed and embarrassed that she didn't forgive Squirrelflight and Leafpool.
ON TOP OF THAT,
When Holly did disappear in the tunnel, the first words Lion and Jay said were "Who's gonna be the third now? " Not even caring that their sister had "died".
PLUS,
Holly was more eager to find out her power than any of the three, and she didn't even get to have a power because the Erin's couldn't think of a good power for her, when they gave a power to Dovewing. They should've planned ahead for their powers. They didn't even make her the fourth!
So yeah that's my reasoning.
Deep breath. Hollyleaf used to be my second favorite because Cinderpelt was my favorite but I moved Cinderpelt down to third place. Anyway, I like Hollyleaf because she knew what to believe in. When she set her heart on something, that thing would be accomplished. When she was in the Forest Fire with Ashfur, Squirrelflight, Lionblaze, and Jayfeather, and she found out that Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw weren't her parents, she made sure the secret didn't get out from Ashfur. I'm not complaining I think from her point of view, that's the smartest thing to do. And, she didn't flee right away, she traveled to the sun-drown-place with Brambleclaw, Birchfall, Hazeltail, Lionblaze, and Brackenfur. Then, she fled. After at least a year, Hollyleaf saved Dovewing and Ivypool from getting crushed. She saved Ivypool a second time in the book after by dying. Her death wasn't sad to me. In fact, I was happy when she died because she set her heart on protecting her clan, and that is what she died ...more
Hollyleaf is by far the BEST WARRIOR CAT!
1. She contributed so much to here clan, And all the clans. She saved the kits from the fox, she gave the clan fresh herbs, she fought in the battle against the dark forest, and always tried to follow the warrior code.
2. She helped the world around her when she saved that fox pup.
She forgived, herself, and others and accepted herself.
But that is only some of the acts of Hollyleaf. I suggest you read Hollyleaf's story to find out more about this magnificent cat.
And now a few words dedicated to Hollyleaf.
Hush. Your life was a battle field within yourself. And you fought bravely inside and out. Now rest yourself, Your body, Your Heart, and Your Spirit. I only wish you an eternity of happiness, serenity, and happy hunting. May StarClan light your path.

Sandstorm may have been a little mean in the first book, but she got better. She is so cute with Firestar, and she is one of the few female cats that can kick some tail. She also went on her own adventure once, but died due to infections. Seriously Erin. You're killing of all the good cats.
Sandstorm is such a Squirrel'flight type cat. Her character development is awesome, because loyalty finally brushed over her and she was willing to be with Fireheart, probably when the rest of the Clan suspected her to be with Dustpelt. She's such a loyal and fierce warrior that does anything for her Clan and inherited loyalty into the family and a sense for what's right. She also has a good sense of humor and doesn't take things too seriously, making her a good mother and at the same time a loyal warrior. She was still kind to Dustpelt, making her a good friend and an overall stellar character.
I think Sandstorm was one of the first strong female leads in warrior cats (except Bluestar, of course). She is so strong and sassy, she has flaws, but she overcomes them and ends up being one of the most respected warriors in Thunderclan! She is perfect for Firestar and is a strong cat for him to lean on, but she doesn't just end up being Firestar's mate, she is her own independent cat. I love how in The Apprentice's Quest, instead of staying to rot in the elder's den she dies helping the clans. She isn't just some damsel in distress, and I love that!
My Opinion: Sandstorm is is brave and loyal. She may have seemed sharp-tongued, but proved her worthiness standing by Firestar, her mate, through his quest. She never, ever, stopped fighting throughout her life. She died, a true warrior's death in the Apprentice's Quest, risking her life. She lives through her daughters, Leafpool and Squirrelflight, and through their kits, Sparkpaw, Alderpaw, Lionblaze, Jayfeather, and Hollyleaf. And THEIR kits, Hollytuft, Fernsong, and Sorrelstripe. May she rest in StarClan for many moons to come.
Her Description: A soft, slender, sleek, pale ginger she-cat with pale leaf-green eyes, and barely visible stripes of fur.
I agree with Rock, that she deserves far more than how she will be known as...

No. No. Ivypool deserves to be up much higher. Ivypool trained in the Place of No Stars, and when she found out the cats in it were horrible, continued to go there. TO SPY. She loves Dovewing so much, she would die for her. She tried protecting her from having kits with tigerheart, to protect her.
She is the queen of BRAVE cats. Everyday she went and spied for the place of no stars and she even killed antpelt FOREVER. For the clans safety. She should have been the 4th cat yet it kinda makes sense that it is Firestar. 'Fire will save the clan.'
This is when fire saves the clan. And that's just life. And her and fernsong in my opinion have very cute children. :D
Ivypool is a great cat. No one can really blame her for feeling jealous. Just take this into account: if you had a sister who got all the attention, all the praise, special treatment, and was skilled, wouldn't you make the decision she made? Now, don't lie, you might say NO but you might just be saying what wants to be heard. And even so, Ivypool finds out about the Dark Forest's real plans and continues to risk her life every night to spy for her Clan. Isn't that loyal? She has great character development as well. To add, she is loyal to the Warrior Code. (Not hating on Dovewing, she's cool) Ivypool is just as skilled as Dovewing, now that her powers are restricted. In conclusion, Ivypool is a character who will stay loyal to her Clan no matter what.
Ivypool is one of my favorite characters! I feel like she's misunderstood and I really like her, she sacrificed so much for her clan! I didn't like her much at first because she was unnecessarily mean to Dovewing (who is also a great cat) who was only trying to comfort her, but she got better once she knew the truth. She risked her life in the Dark Forest, and to the haters that say she's useless, she's not!
She spied on the Dark Forest, and turned half of them back during the battle. Of course, sometimes trying to convince some people is like telling a cat to grow wings and fly, so I'm going save my words.
Ivypool and her sister are both great, vote for them!

Call me mean or not, everyone has an opinion. Though I really hate the GrayxSilver couple shipping, it is important to the plot, and without her dying having Graystripe's kits, the prophecy where the Clans must move to the lake would've never come true. I believe that Silverstream leapt into things without thinking, and always relied on her father to take care of the messes that she created. She was like:
"I know everything about every patrol, because my daddy is leader! "
"I can do whatever I want, because my daddy is leader! "
"I can break the warrior code, because my daddy is leader! "
Silverstream is not really a developed character after all she is around for three books! I like her WAY better then dumb, old, anoying, overprotective and whiny Millie. How the HEAK did Graystripe fall in love with Millie. I think he later found out it was a mistake. In the brocken code Millie is not inlisted in the allegiances and there is no mention of her or of her dying. And when I realized that I was SO excited. I HATE HER! Okay back to Silverstream, if you think it was Mapleshade's fault for her dying it's not true. Mapleshade just knew of the loss coming up ahead for Crookedstar.
Father: Crookedstar
Mother: Willowbreeze
Sister: Willowkit
Mate: Graystripe
Daughter: Feathertail
Son: Stormfur
So that is what I have to say (technically I am writing).
SILVERSTREAM YES! Silverstream is an amazing character. She died birthing kits, yes, but she also died by giving birth to a prophecy! Feathertail and Stormfur are also important cats, they play a big role. Silverstream also gave Firestar the Gift of loyalty! She is greystripes mate as well, she is the daughter of Crookedstar. I mean, what the hell who couldent love this slender, Light silver-grey and black tabby. And those Bright gorgeous eyes! She's amazing!
I actually hate Silverstream. She broke the Warrior Code only to be with Graystripe. I mean, can't she just join ThunderClan and be mates with him (in ThunderClan)?

Why is Lionblaze all the way down here?!
Okay. I love Lionblaze. He's afraid of his on power, and I love his thoughts and character development when he has dreams of being a murderer. But he's not a murderer, he's an amazing and brave cat.
A lot of people say that Lionblaze is a Gary-Sue, but that's not true. He's not completely invincible. He's just protected in battle, he can still get hurt. The one thing people hate about Lionblaze is that they think he has no personality. It's wrong, he has a LOT of personality, more than Jayfeather, Hollyleaf, and Dovewing. I feel that he expresses his personality way better than any other cat in the series!
Lionblaze is an amazing character, one of my favorite book characters.
Simply put, Lionblaze in one of my least favourite cats. He has no personality, has probably the most boring power, and really needed more time to flesh out his character. His relationship with Heathertail was boring, even if it did end at least somewhat interestingly, and Lionblaze then becoming somewhat afraid of his power was interesting at first, but I got quickly bored of it. Anyway, one of my least favourite cats, and the worst of the three.
We would be great as Savage+Lion. As Savageheart, daughter of Scourge, I love him. I want to mate him. We'd be the best fighting force. If he wanted kits, I'd have kits. If he wanted to be mates right away, then we would do it. ( by the way, I am NOT as tiny as Scourge. I am a massive black she cat with white paws and amber eyes. I have long, sharpened dog teeth on my claws, yes. Which makes me a powerful foe. Savagelion! -SavageheartofDeathclan.
Wow. He shouldn't even be on this list. He ruined the series for me. His powers make everything so boring. He had no character development. And he's your typical hero.
1. Cinderheart doesn't deserve him!
2. Lionblaze is always like "I'm so powerful I can do anything, don't worry Cinderheart I can save you"
3. His powers are so stupid!

Ravenpaw is one of my favorite characters. I do wish he didn't leave ThunderClan, but clan life isn't for every cat. Some people call him weak. And to that I say " shut the F up". Ravenpaw is not weak. He helps Thunderclan every once in a while. And I cried when he died.
He is so cool! They do get his eye colour mixed up allot though. I love Ravenpaw's path it is apsolutely AMAZING! If he were a warrior I think his name would have been Ravenfrost or Ravenflight definitely NOT Ravenwing (you know what I mean if you have read Mapleshade's vengeance). I find Ravenpaw's farwell so sad. I love the Ravenpaw & Barley ship! Ravenpaw is just super kind and friendly. I like the friendship triangle of Fire, Gray and Raven! Fun fact is that Holly, Jay and Lion have the same colour of pelt as them. Lion is ginger (ginger golden same thing) Holly is black and Jay is gray.
Mother: Robinwing
Father: Fuzzypelt
Sisters: Brindleface, Frostfur
Brother: Dustpelt
I know I'm not really saying anything interesting but still wanted to share. I could continue talking but I won't so...
I loved it when cats visited Ravenpaw. He was great! I truley wish he could have waited one day because he would have his warriors name! I loved his manggas and I thought it was cool to see things from his prospective. He was funny and smart. Acouple of his funnies include... 1 pputting the adder in dustpaws nest and 2 teaching bareley the hunters crouch and instead of sprining tealling him to eat a bladeof grass. When we found out that he was dead I was really sad to hear because he was such a great cat! To bad he's not in starclan so well probably never hear from him again... Oh wait! He has a novella about him coming out! I can't wait! I support Ravenpaw all the way and he totaly deserves higher!
How is Ravenpaw even down here? He's one of the best cats, in my opinion, because he is so much like me. Firestar and Bluestar are good cats, I like them but I mean, come on Ravenpaw. He should be at the top as well!

Crookedstar was a RiverClan leader in the forest territories. He was born as Stormkit to Rainflower and Shellheart alongside his brother, Oakkit. Following an accident in which he broke his jaw, Stormkit was renamed Crookedkit at the request of Rainflower. She disowned him, leading to Crookedkit running away from the Clan. After returning, he was apprenticed as Crookedpaw to Cedarpelt. He was continually visited in his dreams by Mapleshade, who trained him and demanded he stay loyal to RiverClan above all else. ...read more.
Okay, since Jayfeather's already at the top, I'll just vote for Crookedstar since he needs more love. I love the two of them equally, but this is about Crookedstar.
I'll admit, when I first saw Crookedstar's Promise in the library, I didn't expect anything in particular. I thought I would still like the other special editions more, especially since Crookedstar wasn't that prominent in the first arc (especially when compared to other leaders like Tallstar, Bluestar, Brokenstar, etc).
Man, was I wrong.
I get that Rainflower was in "grief" or whatever, but I don't think I'll ever like her because of how she treated Crookedstar. Poor guy's been through a lot, thanks to Mapleshade (can't really blame her, but I still dislike how she ruined his life). I ended up crying more reading his book than Bluestar's Prophecy. Every darn time I read the more emotional chapters, I still cry.
He goes through amazing character development, and I cheered for him the entire ...more
I liked Crookedstar a lot more after I read Crookedstar's Promise. To me, it was the best SE out of all of them. He went through so much in his clan, got manipulated, bullied, neglected, and all his loved ones died. But in the end, despite his anger and humiliation, he grew strong and gained respect, and became a rightful leader. He is unique for having his disability, and a good leader. When he fell in love with Willowbreeze, the only cat to not care, not minding about his crooked jaw, he was so happy with his two kits as well. He lost everything, the promise he made was only for his clan, and he didn't know about it either! What did you expect, he was just a kit at that time. He put his clan first out of everything and stayed loyal unconditionally. That is a true leader.
His story is so sad! He is a happy and loved kit named Stormkit when he is scared by Goosefeather and brakes his jaw. His mom rejects him and changes his name to Crookedkit. He runs away and when he comes back he has to try so hard to be trusted again. He becomes an apprentice and warrior very late. He is made fun of sometimes. His mother dies, causing his brother to be mad at him. His father (who he was really close to) dies from a rare sickness. His leader dies. His mate who he loved very much died right after kitting from greencough and the next day two of three of his kits die from the same sickness as their mother. His medicine cat (they were good friends) dies. His brother dies. His daughter Silverstream breaks the warrior code. His last remaining daughter Silverstream dies while giving birth. Then his granddaughter dies and his grandson stays with the Tribe. He had no family or friends left and lost everyone he loved. Then he dies from greencough and joins his family and ...more
When I first read Into the Wild and the rest of the first series, I thought Crookedstar was this normal cat with a randomly broken jaw. Then I read Crookedstar's Promise, and now I think that he has one of the best character developments in the series despite him only being a minor character. I find it awesome that he went from a normal, happy kit, to a kind of depressed and annoying one, to an ambitious warrior, and finally a great leader.

Mapleshade is one of the most interesting cats in the series. She's the only female villain, and I think she has a really good motive for being evil, unlike Tigerstar "I wanna be powerful" act. I hate pretty much every other character in the series, except Brightheart and Barely. Firestar, Dovewing, Leafpool, Squirrelflight, and Jayfeather are all extremely overrated characters, and aren't even that interesting to read about. Especially on the case of Firestar and Dovewing, my 2nd and 1st least favorite characters, respectively: they're both just plain mary sues, and I hate them. Mapleshade was the one cat I really enjoyed reading about.
Mapleshade deserves more than what she got! Most people don't like evil cats but Mapleshade isn't evil because she killed her mate because he pushed her aside Like a piece of dead prey and looked at a new cat to love! Her mate is the most evil! Mapleshade should be in starclan! I understand her! Imagine it you where kicked out of your clan, rejected be your mate, your kits dieing,and a cat watching your kits DIE in the river with out trying to help! Her mate can't just run along without even getting kicked out of HIS clan and he took a different mate! He should be in the dark forest! mapleshade is the Queen of Warriors! Her mate is the King of the worst cat in the WORLD! After mapleshade in my list it is Thistleclaw. Yes I like dark forest cats the best!
Swiftrobin the Warrior cat
Mapleshade, my favorite villain. She is one of the most bad villain, but why people still love her? Actually, she have one or maybe more reason to be one. She got kicked out by her clan, kit all dead and even her mate hate her. I think she is poor more than bad, she just need love...
Okay, so look at Bluestar&Oakheart, Silverstream&Graystripe, Leafpool&Crowfeather, Dovewing&Tigerheart, though I love them, Almost Lionblaze&Heathertail, Fallowtail&Reedfeather... I could go on. Now... look at Mapleshade. I'd say she was the only one of these couples who went to the Dark Forest. And then, Appledusk didn't even go to the Place of No Stars with her! He should go there, but Mapleshade is evil, I have to admit. I think that Ravenwing, Oakstar, and Frecklewish shouldn't have had such rage towards her.

Lionheart is my favorite warrior cat! I love him! There should be a super edition about this awesome cat! It was so sad when he died and I got so exited every time he was mentioned after his death. My second favorite is Squirrelflight. She is so pretty and well- developed.
Lionheart was the bravest cat and he was the wisest cat in the whole forest. He could have made one of the best leaders in the history of the clans. He thought Firestar his wisdom and could have thought him more. It"s so sad when he dies...
Even though I have not even read the whole serries well I only read two books and I now all the cats and clans but lionheart stood out most of all. I hope the author will make more characters and more books I also have a name for a warrior cat you might like its name is Shadowclaw
Lionheart NEEDED to be at least in the first 2 or even 3 books!, but by reading Bluestars prophecy and Into the wild from low key the first 100 pages we got an in look at his personality quite well. Very courageous, loyal, trustworthy, smart, and understanding. So many good qualities yet he died so early. RIP lionheart~

At first I didn't mind Stonefur. But looking back he I now see how much more he deserved. I wish Blackfoot didn't kill him. Stonefur was loyal and brave. He risked his own life to save others. He died a true warrior.
Stonefur deserved more. He deserved to be Leopardstar's deputy and took the warrior code very seriously whenever he questioned Tigerstar's orders in the Darkest Hour. He was always there for Feathertail and Stormfur and supported RiverClan at all costs. Stonefur was a good brother and supported Mistyfoot/star throughout his entire life and they were inseparable, existing wherever they were needed.
Stonefur deserves another life. If Blackfoot didn't kill him, Tigerstar would've clearly, but Stonefur was awesome, he just showed loyalty and braveness, but all that goes to waste as he dies defending featherkit and stormkit (at the time). Stonefur really was awesome.
-Silentwhispers the Riverclan medicine cat
Stonefur. Just hearing that name fills me with sorrow. He died to save his cousin's kits! (Because Oakheart and Crookedstar were brothers, and Stonefur was Oakheart's son, as was Silverstream with Crookedstar. Silverstream's kits were Stormfur and Feathertail, so Stonefur died to save his cousin's kits. ) (Sorry for that word vomit, heheh. ) He died a brave and noble death, and will never be forgotten. As they say, gone, but not forgotten. His spirit will live on in his sister, Mistyfoot/Mistystar's kits. He should have become Stonestar! I wish he had become a leader, but I'm not saying I regret Mistystar becoming a leader. I would have liked it better though if Stonefur had become Stonestar, and Mistyfoot became his deputy. But eve though he didn't become a leader, his life was laid out by StarClan, and he wasn't made to be a leader. He lived his own life, and I'm happy for him.

I don't get why everyone hates Spottedleaf. She was a great character. Sure, she is pretty much useless, but she has a good heart. She also prophesied the whole
" only fire could save the clan" thing. She was there for Firestar when he needed her. I don't ship her with Firestar, because that could never have worked out. But people need to stop hating her.
Spottedleaf in this list? What the heck? She's the WORST CHARACTER EVER. I mean, she's just a boring Mary Sue that seduces an apprentice, then whoops she dies and what she does next? Stalks his crush in his dreams. And keep in mind that her crush has a family. Seriously?
In Firestar's Quest Spottedleaf exits from StarClan to help Patchfoot, I think for a rat bite, while Sandstorm and Firestar are there. And then she suddenly starts flirting with Firestar. Sandstorm was very hot-headed in this scene and I totally understand her.
Most people say "Spottedleaf didn't care about the fact that Firestar had another mate" but they're wrong, she absolutely did. Otherwise why would she stalk Firestar?
I'm surprised, really.
Spottedleaf was just amazing. She was always there for Firestar, and his kin. Firestar was the main character, and went through many difficult times, but she was always there for him. Always, no matter the hardships, losses, battles or anything, really. I don't see how people see such a caring cat as bad, truly. But with spottedleaf x firestar, she knew it couldn't have worked. She stuck to the warrior code and was such a deserving member of StarClan.
Isn't Spottedleaf a bit overrated?
Just stating my opinion, but all of these perfect sayings about her-
'Oh, she's so beautiful! '
'She should have been with Firestar! '
'DIE SANDSTORM'
And she's always stated as beautiful. Perfect this, perfect that, she's annoying after a while.
Sure, she's still a good medicine cat, just take it down a notch.
And it's like what that person said, she's old enough to be his mother.

Brightheart is by far one of the best characters. She dealt with so much. First of all, Bluestar refused to make her a warrior. Ouch. Then, her best friend was killed and half her face was ruined. Then she was renamed Lostface, which is just mean. She became Brightheart, and her and Cloudtail had a kit together. Then Cloudtail was a jerk and he was so protective of Daisy. Then he was good again. And then Brightheart and Cloudtail were kidnapped by twolegs, and finally, all the journeying to find a new home stuff. Brightheart is inspiring, and wonderful.
She just wanted to be made a warrior. Her and Swiftpaw (I think his warrior name would be Swiftclaw) just wanted to made warriors. Bluestar should have made them both a warrior. Then naming her Lostface is just so MEAN. I think princess overreacted when she saw her face even after fireheart told her to be kind. Then she saw her face for the first time and cloudtail was like "You still look beautiful to me." She really deserved better treatment from bluestar.
LIONBLAZE
Brightheart is the best cat ever. She was renamed Lostface, that was a little cruel on Bluestar's part but she had kits afraid of her! That must have been awful, poor Brightheart, she's my favorite character because she has a Bright Heart.
-Sandrose
Brightheart is great because even when she was attacked by the dogs, she still became a warrior, and a pretty good one at that. I was so mad at Bluestar when she was named Lostface! I like Brightheart be cause she has a story, a history. She even had kits, and is one of the very few warriors that is not perfect in terms of health, I think the only other is crookedstar. But crookedstar only had a crooked jaw, brightheart lost half her face! Her name describes her well, and she was even in the battle with bloodclan. Go Brightheart!

Longtail is the character with the best development, in my opinion. He was always a pretty good cat, but it seems his 'friends' changed him. After eating the squirrel and killing the elder (forgot her name) he started to change. He became more arrogant, cared less about rules, and started to hang out more often with Tigerstar and Darkstripe. But, then he realized that what he was doing was bad and he didn't want to be apart of that. It shows true strength to not follow your friends when they do something bad. Longtail was pushed around too much after he became a normal warrior and was happier. He went blind then was forced to retire early. He stayed happy throughout his life. Longtail is a loyal cat who recharged for the better.
HE'S SO UNDERRATED. I love how he turned for a brat to a loyal cat! He stood up for himself and always did the right thing in the end. I love him as an elder, he's just so kind! I think Longtail is an example at becoming a better cat!-Maplepelt.
I LOVE him, he first is bad for darkstripe and tigerstar, and then he became a really good cat, (spoilers) I'm so sab because he died for the mouse of mousefur, I'm angry with she for this!
Can we just say, underrated character here? Longtail and Mousefur are so cute together. I think he's fantastic, if forgettable.

She didn't deserve that death, and was a good sister to bluestar. I maintain that if she had remained alive bluestar would not have gone insane. she had no way of knowing that thistleclaw was evil, and tried to be good to her sister despite it. its totally unfair that she was just remembered for loving thistleclaw. she never got to do anything else and I don't think that's all she should be remembered for.
She is was a good sister to bluestar and a good mother to whitestorm and she was a awesome cat. To bad she had to die. Curse those shadowclan fools and you monser on the thunder path. She could have lived. When mosskit died she cared for her (bluestars daughter died in the frezzing cold weather while getting to sunning rocks to give her kits to there father).
Snowfur! I can talk about her all day! She was so brave, chasing out those Shadow Clan cats just for it to end in her death! God Dang it Shadow Clan, next time stay on your own Territory!
Curse you, monster that killed her! That car was the reason that Tigerstar was evil. The car killed her which made her mate go mad and kind of abuse Tigerpaw and that is that. Curse the car.
