Talon of Swooping Eagle/Main article

Talon of Swooping Eagle, more commonly known as Talon, is a huge, dark brown tabby tom with amber eyes, big paws, massive shoulders, a ragged pelt, and a scar across the side of his face.

Talon of Swooping Eagle, or Talon, was an elder in the Tribe of Rushing Water who served as a cave-guard under Stoneteller. He was born to an unnamed she-cat along with his sister Brook and his brother Crag. When Sharptooth began terrorizing the Tribe, Stoneteller sent Talon, Bird, Rock, and three other Tribe cats to kill the mountain lion. Three of the Tribe cats died attempting to, and Talon, Rock, and Bird lived as outcasts as they couldn't return to the Tribe having not killed Sharptooth.

Talon and his group were discovered by Brambleclaw and the other Clan cats who brought them back to the Tribe with a plan to kill Sharptooth. The plan succeeded, and Talon and the others were accepted back into the Tribe. After Stonteller banished Stormfur and Brook when their plan to drive out the rogues failed, Talon and Night traveled to the Clans to bring them back. Talon later retired and became an elder.
