Firestar (Warrior Cats)

Firestar is a major character of Erin Hunter's Warriors book franchise serving as the main protagonist of the original series, The Prophecies Begin. He was one of Thunderclan leaders and the most famous. He was first discovered by Spottedleaf of Thunderclan after she received a mysterious prophecy from Starclan during the book "Into the Wild". After receiving the vision of a strange and barely visible ginger cat with fire surrounding it she stated, "Fire alone will save our clan". Firestar is the arch-nemesis of Shadowclan's former leader Tigerstar. He has kits (Warriors term for kittens) named Leafpool, a medicine cat (Warriors term for nurse) and Squirrelflight, the current deputy of Thunderclan. He also has a loyal mate (Warriors term for girlfriend) named Sandstorm. His best friend is Graystripe.

Physical Appearance
Firestar is a large, handsome tabby tom cat with a dark, flame-coloured pelt, hence his name. He has large, pointed ears, a long tail and bright emerald green eyes.

Personality
Firestar is brave, protective, caring, compassionate and honourable. He is fiercely loyal not only to his clan, but also to his many friends and allies, regardless of their affiliation. He respects the rules of the Warrior Code, but also has the insight to look beyond them in order to properly judge a questionable situation. As a result, he often breaks the traditional rules of the Clans (a trend started by his very inclusion into Thunderclan, being a house cat, or having kittypet origins) in order to help his friends or rectify a situation he believes to be right. Firestar can be very serious, but has a good sense of humor too. He very rarely gets distracted.
