Top 10 Most Evil Warrior Cats

The Warrior Cats series has given us some of the most intense and ruthless characters in all of literature. These cats are more than just villains - they're the ones whose actions leave a lasting impact on the Clans and have shaped the course of their stories in ways we can never forget. Their schemes, betrayals, and sheer hunger for power are what make them stand out as some of the most feared characters in the entire series.

This list is all about the most evil cats in Warrior Cats. The ones that went too far, broke all the rules, and left chaos in their wake. But who deserves the top spot as the absolute worst of the worst?
The Top Ten
Tigerstar Tigerstar is a villain in the Warriors series by Erin Hunter. Son of Leopardfoot and Pinestar, former mate of Goldenflower and Sasha, and father of Bramblestar, Tawnypelt, Mothwing, Hawkfrost, and Tadpole. This brown tabby cat almost causes the downfall of the clans. But is killed, firstly by Scourge,... read more

He's literally so evil! He murdered Redtail and would have killed Ravenpaw to keep him quiet. Then, he killed Brindleface to give the dog pack a taste for cat blood.

That is just horrible. Brindleface was a really good character. And then he tries to take over the forest by bringing Scourge in, who ends up killing him. Which, if you ask me, is fair, since he gave Scourge trauma when he was a kitten.

He would have killed anyone if he had to, and probably even just for fun. He led a pack of dogs to ThunderClan camp and killed Bluestar.

Brokenstar Brokenstar is a villain character from the Warrior Cats series. Brokenstar is a matted, dark brown tabby tom with a broad, flat face, a bent tail, and orange eyes. Brokenstar was a former Shadowclan leader and a member of the Dark Forest. His mother is Yellowfang and his father is Raggedstar.

When he was a mentor, he put his apprentice in a tree to hang on with his jaw. Then, when he became leader, he made kits train at three moons old, sent elders away, exiled his mother, killed kits, stole kits, made everyone hunt for themselves, and attacked WindClan more times than I can count.

Brokenstar is horrible, to put it lightly. He sent Yellowfang, the elders, and later many more cats out of the clan. Then, he killed kits because they weren't "strong enough" and "would have been killed anyway."

Of course, most people think Tigerstar is the most evil. But we never got to know what made Brokenstar evil. If he was born purely evil, then he is probably even more evil than Tigerstar.

At least Tigerstar never tried to train kits and send them to battle at a young age. At least Tigerstar didn't exile his mother and refer to her as a rogue. I mean, he didn't know she was his mother, but doing so left Runningnose as the medicine cat, a cat who couldn't even cure his own cold.

Brokenstar also stole kits, even though it was completely unnecessary. He was the cause of young Badgerpaw's death and the deaths of countless cats from all over the clans. Yellowfang was right to feed him deathberries.

If any cat is the most ruthless, evil, heartless, and soulless, it's Brokenstar.

Scourge Scourge is a villain the Warrior Cats series. He's the leader of BloodClan. He was bullied by his siblings, Socks and Ruby, in the past because he was the smallest out of his kin. One of his most notable features is his collar of dog teeth. Scourge is a small black tom with one white paw, ice-blue eyes,... read more

A lot of people don't like him, and I don't like him either, but if you read his backstory, you tend to feel more pity for him than hate. He was treated terribly by his littermates, he almost got murdered when he was a kit, and he was raised by outsiders.

Sure, he was still a bad cat, but the only love he must have felt was when every cat in the Twolegplace made him their leader. That's my defense of him being not as bad as people think. But don't get me wrong - he is still a bad cat.

When people say he wanted the best for his cats, that's not true. Take Bone, for example. If Scourge's deputy got sick, he would have left him to die. That's all I've got. He isn't evil, but he's still bad. I don't hate or love him. I just pity him.

Darktail

Darktail is evil. He killed Needletail, Dawnpelt, Rain, and Sharpclaw. He captured cats in RiverClan, and cats in ShadowClan decided to follow him because otherwise they would get their shoulders scratched, dunked underwater, and then pulled out again just to be shoved underwater once more.

Shattered Sky was a good book. I like the fact that all the leaders can't stay in the same room for more than five minutes without complaining about something or arguing. He's one of my favorite antagonists.

- Willowmoon of ThunderClan

Hawkfrost Hawkfrost is a villain character from the Warriors series. Hawkfrost is a dark brown tabby tom with a snow-white underbelly and ice-blue eyes. Hawkfrost was a former Riverclan warrior and member of the Dark Forest. Hawkfrost tried to kill Firestar with a fox trap but was killed by his brother Brambleclaw... read more

Feathertail saw that Hawkfrost was becoming like his father. But if he turned on RiverClan... I mean, let's take a trip down memory lane. Hawk was chasing a moss ball and fell in the river. Moth was pretty dang traumatized, and Hawk was holding on to the edge of life. Feathertail saved him.

How could Hawk ever turn on her? Also, the reason why he's probably so strong is that his mentor was Leopardstar.

Hawkfrost was power-hungry from the start. When all the clans but RiverClan were weakened due to Twolegs, Hawkfrost wanted to claim the land for his own clan. He never liked Mistyfoot (Mistystar) and wanted to replace her as deputy. Honestly, Hawkfrost, where in the name of all the warriors in StarClan is your brain? Why reclaim land that has no use?

Why try over and over again to get Stormfur and Brook out of RiverClan? Why try to kill Firestar (See book 6 in The New Prophecy)? Why train more cats in the Dark Forest and attack the clans? Honestly, Hawkfrost, if you were patient, you could have achieved what you wanted. But nah, you're mouse-brained. This is why Brambleclaw killed you twice.

-Skycloud

Darkstripe

Darkstripe, at first, didn't seem evil. He was just pretty mean. But then, later on, you can clearly see he's on Tigerstar's side (like he always was) and turned pure evil. Almost as evil as Tigerstar. I never liked Darkstripe.

Longtail became honest and trustworthy and didn't follow Tigerstar anymore. That was good, though Darkstripe also turned down the offer to be exiled along with Tigerstar when Tigerstar was exiled. That proves at some point he was loyal to ThunderClan, but later on, nope.

Feeds kits death berries, acts like a big dumb coward, and instantly went with Tigerstar. Like, he's so dramatic when Firestar became leader and went all, "Really? A kittypet as a leader? I'm not gonna rant anything to a kittypet." Like Firestar has proved so much to be a great leader. Man, I hate you, Darkstripe.

Mapleshade Mapleshade is a character in the Warriors series by Erin Hunter. Mapleshade is a large, tortoiseshell-and-white she-cat, with a scarred white muzzle, and white patches throughout her pelt. She is thick-furred, and her pelt is ragged, patched, and scarred. Her fur is thick around her neck, like a mane,... read more

She's like the best villain, literally causing a chain reaction in villains. I also felt pity for her while reading her story. But, why would she have kits cross a flooded river? That was pretty stupid on her part. Anyway, she's one of the most interesting villains in the series, not being driven by ambition, like most of the other villains - Brokenstar, Tigerstar, Hawkfrost, etc. But like the people saying that she should've gone to StarClan, I strongly disagree. Not only the fact that she killed other cats, but she would be forced into a clan where there would be the cats that denied her and who she saw killed her kits? (Well, besides Frecklewish, but is it just me or would it have been cool to see them interact in the Dark Forest together?)

Sol

Sol isn't like the other villains. Instead of using his claws, he uses his words. He is a very selfish cat who isn't good at hunting or survival, so he manipulates other cats into doing things for him.

For example, in SkyClan, he stole food from foxes instead of hunting. This backfired when the foxes found SkyClan's camp, and Sol was thrown out. And don't even get me started on what happened with ShadowClan. ShadowClan must not have truly believed in StarClan to stop believing so easily.

He is such an interesting one. He didn't fight to get his way. He used his mouth to bribe cats. He killed so many of them. He drove out SkyClan. He bribed most of ShadowClan to stop following the warrior code and stop believing in StarClan. He got cats from WindClan to attack ThunderClan. He's a good villain, though.

Thistleclaw Thistleclaw is a villain in the Warrior Cats series. Thistleclaw is a gray-and-white tabby tom with spiky fur and amber eyes

So basically, he trained in the Dark Forest and didn't think that it was going to hurt the Clan. He was way too ambitious and almost killed a kit (Scourge).

Okay, settle down. This is going to take a while.

For one, Thistleclaw did not make Tigerstar evil. Goosefeather saw evil in Tigerstar when he was still a kit. He was simply an evil cat, nothing to do with Thistleclaw. Also, it's not Bluestar's fault Thistleclaw was evil. Your girlfriend's sister not liking you doesn't give you the right to turn against everyone that loves you, everyone you grew up with. Bluestar also didn't chase Thistleclaw into the dark forest. That was a joke the authors made up.

Thistleclaw had no reason to be evil. He trained in the Dark Forest in Spottedleaf's Heart and chose to stay there. Don't make the excuse that he lost his mate and sister. Look at Crookedstar, he lost his mother, his father, his mate, his kits, and his brother. And yet he still stayed loyal to the end.

Clawface

He committed murder and killed Spottedleaf. She was one of my favorite characters, and she was really good. She was just going to ShadowClan, and he was just a jerk about it and had to MURDER her.

To me, that's not the best reaction to someone who looks like a medicine cat. What an idiot, right?

-Snowpaw, the ThunderClan apprentice

Right, I hate this cat. He killed Spottedleaf and followed Brokenstar! After the death of Brokenstar, he joined Tigerstar as a rogue and came back to ShadowClan with him. He is an evil cat, conferring with TigerClan and Tigerstar.

The Newcomers

? Onestar Onestar is a fictional character from the book series "Warriors" by Erin Hunter. He is/was a WindClan leader, and is mottled, small, brown tom cat.

Onewhisker was amazing. He was very kind. But once he became Onestar, he suddenly forgot about his relationship with Firestar and all that ThunderClan did for him. I hate Onestar so much.

He did become a good cat at the end, but did he really have to attack ThunderClan?

? Redwillow

Twitchtail -
I can't believe no one remembers him. He was a cat who was going to kill his own clanmates - a real evil cat who deserved to be in the DARK FOREST.

Although I always loved his name, it's so unfair that no one remembers him.

True, it's like nobody remembers him!

The Contenders
Bone

This guy is just a thug who is the henchman of a much cleverer cat. He's dumb, big, and a killer, but he's loyal and was just following orders. Plus, Whitestorm drove me crazy. The old, wise cat just had to die. He'd been alive too long.

I love Bone. He didn't deserve what he got. I hate the apprentices. They are the mindless killers, not Bone. Long live BloodClan! Die ThunderClan! I hope Scourge rips out Firestar's throat in the future!

Bone is pure evil! He literally collected claws from cats and teeth from dogs. He deserves to be in the Dark Forest for his bloody actions. Maple Shade killed to avenge her kittens. Bone doesn't deserve to be in StarClan. He died because of apps, so he can learn his gory actions from the past.

One Eye

He's in Dawn of the Clans, so most of you don't know him. But he's so evil that he kicked Clear Sky out of his own clan, killed Tom, nearly killed Sparrow Fur, and put his mark of a single eye on innocent cats. He made Snake betray his group and caused Petal to die, leaving Birch and Alder without a mother.

Thanks to his actions, Thunder, Cloud Spots, Pink Eyes, Lightning Tail, and someone else I don't remember left to create a new group. So, if you think he is someone to forget, then I'll make his dead spirit haunt you in your dreams.

Ashfur Ashfur is a character created by Erin Hunter for the book series named Warrior Cats. Ashfur is a muscular pale gray tom with darker flecks and dark blue eyes. He has short, thick fur, and a torn ear.

A literal jerk. After Twilight, he just became a sore loser and was so aggressive. Then he ended up in StarClan because he "loved too much" after being killed by Hollyleaf. (Congrats, you basically made our problem 10x worse, Hollyleaf - I'll get to that in a minute.)

He didn't even help out when the Dark Forest tried to take over during the Great Battle. Then Hollyleaf died, and somehow they "negotiated their problems." Then The Broken Code happened, and here is what he did:
- Found a hole to the Dark Forest.
- Asked StarClan if he could "go to the clans to check if they were following the warrior code."
- Literally trapped StarClan and started talking to Shadowpaw to KILL Bramblestar so he could take over his body.
- Became a tyrant and manipulated a bunch of DF cats to his side.
- Did other jerk stuff.
- Died and killed a POV character in the process of dying.

So yeah, he's a mean guy.

Skystar

According to the warrior cats wiki, he committed all the crimes listed below!

Child neglect, murder, authoritarianism, incitement to violence, mass negligence, attempted hostile takeover, territorial aggression, emotional abuse, unlawful imprisonment, public humiliation, mass murder, attempted infanticide, attempted fratricide, enforced starvation, assault, theft, and warmongering. He also stole Storm and Bright Stream from Gray Wing and Starflower from Thunder!

Skystar is a literal jerk. He's so rude, snappy, and snarky to all the other clans. He doesn't care about his medicine cat (Mica) dying. Also, Clear Sky took like every mate his kin loved. He took Storm and Bright Stream from Gray Wing while he took Star Flower from Thunder. He's also a liar and loves fights. He told Gray Wing that he would feed Jackdaw's Cry but didn't. He rejected his son, saying that he was testing if he could live by himself. Clear Sky fought Gray Wing when Gray Wing didn't want to. He's also a killer. He killed Rainswept Flower and almost killed Gray Wing.

-Creekwhisker from ThunderClan

Sleekwhisker

Sleekwhisker was awful, just a horrid nightmare. She was the first cat to volunteer in joining Darktail. Then she stole Yarrowleaf's kits! I don't even know why she wanted to stay with Nettle and Raven.

I mean, Nettle was prepared to kill his own kits, and I am sure that Sleekwhisker eventually had a kit with Nettle. She's just so awful! And I'm sure if she ever did have kits, she wouldn't even care about what happens to them!

She's so evil. First, as Sleekpaw, she joins Darktail's rogues and plots against the clans. Then, she gave herself a warrior name and turned Violetpaw in for trying to put Darktail to sleep. She then helps Darktail drown Needletail for Violetpaw's punishment.

Later, she goes to SkyClan and begs for sanctuary with Yarrowleaf. Then, she puts Yarrowleaf to sleep, steals her kits, and betrays the clans.

Leopardstar Leopardstar is a golden tabby she-cat with amber eyes.
Leopardstar was a leader of RiverClan in the forest and in the lake territories. Leopardkit was born to Mudfur and Brightsky alongside three unnamed kits; however, Brightsky and her littermates died during the kitting. Mudfur gave her the name... read more

Leopardstar isn't too evil, but it was a horrible decision to join Tigerclan. Because she joined Tigerclan, her loyal deputy, in other words, the beloved Stonefur, got killed by Blackfoot, later to be known as Blackstar.

Leopardstar was a hot-headed she-cat, if I may say so, with a pretty short temper. I would not recommend having her as a leader.

Leopardstar is on my list of most hated characters in media, not just Warriors. Her first strike was just taking over ThunderClan stupidly, thinking she would be a good leader by being reckless and just overly willing to fight.

Firestar Firestar is a character in the Warrior Cats series. He becomes the leader of ThunderClan after Bluestar. He is mates with Sandstorm and has two kits: Squirrelflight and Leafpool. Formerly a kittypet named Rusty, Firestar is killed by fatal wounds inflicted by the spirit of Tigerstar and a falling tree... read more

Umm, he kind of cheated on Sandstorm. He still loved Spottedleaf even after she died, and wasn't afraid to express it. Sandstorm knew this, and if your boyfriend or girlfriend did this to you, would you feel sympathy?

When Spottedleaf died in The Last Hope, he said that she would wait for him in StarClan. Sandstorm was right next to him when he said this. Also, he didn't tell anybody that SkyClan existed.

When you think about it, Firestar is evil. DON'T YELL AT ME YET! He killed an apprentice. It was a young apprentice too, our knowledge shows that. And a tiny apprentice. HE LOOKED LIKE A KIT, WE KNOW THAT MUCH. Firestar murdered him with a cold heart.

You may wonder who I'm talking about. Scourge. Yup, he was a young apprentice with no battle experience that killed Tigerstar... GARY STU! I still think that is just based on how he fights and other than that, he has no points where he's a Gary Stu. Firestar is the worst!

Rainflower

I don't know much about Rainflower, but she's a horrible parent. After Stormkit broke his jaw, she renamed him Crookedkit, just like Bluestar renamed Brightheart Lostface, and then rejected and neglected him. She cared for Shellheart and Oakkit, but not him.

Plus, she refused to be near him in the nursery, stayed as far away as possible at his warrior ceremony, and never appeared at his nine lives ceremony either. Honestly, she deserves to be on this list so much.

I laughed so hard when I heard she died and when she and Shellheart later broke up. I think she should be in the Dark Forest.

- Witheredpaw

Socks

I love Scourge, and Socks was the one that made him evil by bullying him. What did Scourge even do? And when he grew up, he asked Scourge to give him food, and Scourge did give them one meal. One meal isn't a lot, but it is better than starving. Scourge didn't even forgive Socks yet, so why would anyone suspect that he would give Socks one meal?

- Crystalpool of Leafclan

I absolutely hate Socks! He bullied and teased Scourge with Ruby, and they're the reason he's evil! Also, Tigerstar attacked him when they were young, so he's part of why he's evil too! Socks had no reason to bully Scourge. Scourge did nothing to them, did he?!?

Snowtuft

We don't know much about Snowtuft, but he's evil. He almost killed Ivypool, and he was in the Omen of the Stars. It's hard to judge this cat, Snowtuft.

Snowtuft was in Omen of the Stars. He almost killed Ivypool.

Snowtuft was evil. But then his change just made me have a different feeling.

Appledusk

This cat just ruined Mapleshade's life. He made her evil and caused a whole chain reaction of evil cats! He even cheated on Mapleshade.

This kitty paid the price, though. - Shadeflower from ThunderClan

He just wanted to be recognized in RiverClan as a good cat and did not care about Mapleshade anymore. He would rather be let into RiverClan than have Mapleshade be safe. He was almost using Mapleshade to get kits, but now that the love he had for her was gone because Mapleshade "killed" his beloved kits, he rejected her.

So, good on Mapleshade for getting rid of that cat.

Blackstar

I hate Blackstar. He was on Tigerstar's side. Although the warrior code does say to always obey, agree, or not hurt your leader, I will give him the slack that he was at least obeying the warrior code. But still, I don't like him.

He was bad when he killed Stonefur, but he was a great leader. He's not really evil anymore once he becomes Blackstar, but when he's Blackfoot, he's evil! Stonefur was amazing!

I hate how everyone was just fine with him being leader when he supported Brokenstar and was one of the reasons why Stonefur died.

Jessy

Jessy stole Bramblestar! She called him "Wild Cat," but he's the Clan Leader! Jessy was really rude towards Squirrelflight, and she should show some respect! Squirrelflight is the Clan Deputy! You're not even a Clan cat!

Bramblestar was so amazed by how she could climb the Twoleg fence, but like, she does it every day! So do other kittypets! Graystripe, Bramblestar, and Spiderleg made a mistake falling in love with kittypets. They're just amazed kittypets aren't fat and lazy. So what?! Firestar wasn't lazy!

Dude, Jessy sucked. She was also annoying. She stole Bramblestar from Squirrelflight! I hope she dies a painful death.

Pinestar

Pineheart is one of the worst cats, and hear me out. He led to Tigerstar slowly becoming evil, gave Tigerstar trauma and depression, and led to all of Tigerstar's kills, and Tigerstar's own death. Is there a page where I can vote for the worst father ever?

Twitchtail -
World's worst father. You raised a murderer. Actually, you weren't even there for him. You pretty much left him to fend for himself. Pinestar should be at the top because he was the one who made Tigerstar a murder machine!

I HATE HIM! He left his mate, his two sick kits, and his whole clan! Just so he wouldn't die, but then he died anyway. He should NOT have gone to StarClan. Besides, kittypets don't believe in StarClan! They don't know what it is! And he shouldn't have given Bluestar one of her lives. He's the worst!

Lizardstripe

Lizardstripe is a huge part of why Brokenstar is evil. Maybe if she had loved him just a little, he would have turned out better. However, she does have the best quote in the series.

Lizardstripe: "What's this?"
Yellowfang: "A kit."
Raggedstar: "My kit!"
Lizardstripe: "Oh? If I'd known that toms could have kits, I would have had Mudfur have these brats himself!"

She is way worse than Rainflower. It was confirmed that Rainflower made up with Crookedstar in StarClan, and she even wanted to give him a life, but StarClan didn't allow it. However, Lizardstripe just didn't want to be a mother and hated her kits. She made Brokenstar into a monster.
