History
Thistlestar was the leader of StreamClan prior to Adderstar and was the reason behind the Great War of the Lake. With knowledge of half-StreamClan half-RockClan kits residing in StreamClan, Thistlestar's hostility towards the situation worsened upon receiving news that the kits managed to find their way towards RockClan. The leader refused to believe the kits left voluntarily and began to suspect they were stolen by a RockClan patrol looking to fetch kits that didn't belong to them, adding fuel to Thistlestar's disgust and hatred towards RockClan. This attitude spread towards his other neighboring clans, as well. Tensions grew between StreamClan and RockClan, WoodClan, and ValleyClan and ultimately divided the clan in half. Thistlestar sent out an increasing number of patrols to watch the border, threatening anyone who dared step a whisker too close. Some cats, irritated with the situation and scared for their life, fled in the moonlight, leaving Thistlestar and half of the clan behind. One of those cats was his deputy and mate, Addersnap. Fueled by rage, Thistlestar declared war on RockClan, wanting them out of the picture for good after causing him to lose so much.

The onset of war ultimately fell through for StreamClan as their already small numbers dwindled even further. One by one warriors were picked apart by patrols, fled the territory on their own, or vanished from plain sight. The future ahead of the silver leader was grim and dark, his hostility and pride towards the world around him the only thing driving him deeper into grave he dug himself. Thistlestar ushered what remaining StreamClan warriors were left, that hadn't gone with Addersnap, and lead them out of their territory. He forcefully threatened any cat who refused to join him, unbelieving that his loyalty would be further dismissed by what little he had left. Moon by moon, Thistlestar became a hollow shell of the feline they used to be. Life after life were stripped away by starvation, disease, and poor health. He heard the whispers about him spread among his traveling Clanmates, and snapped at anyone who dared treat him as weak. Still, the feline fought on, not wanting to betray the clan he fought so hard to protect and preserve.

Upon Addersnap returning to StreamClan, Thistlestar and his deputy reconciled and shared one last tender embrace before the silver leader's final life escaped his body. He was surrounded by apprehensive clanmates, both new and old, and finally witnessed his clan united once more. His deep hatred, hostility, and pride died with him. There are floating rumors dismissed by many that the blood of Thistlestar still courses through StreamClan to this day.
