Whiteclaw

Whiteclaw is a dark tom with one white paw.

Fire and Ice

 * Whiteclaw is a very minor character. A border fight is aroused when RiverClan catches a patrol consisting of ThunderClan and WindClan cats heading through RiverClan territory; the fight occurs threateningly close to the gorge's edge. When Graystripe and Whiteclaw are fighting along the edge, Whiteclaw slips over the side, grabbing onto the ledge. Graystripe tries to help him by trying to grab his paw, but he falls to his death. His death had been prophesied by WindClan's medicine cat, Barkface, earlier in the novel. StarClan had given him a sign through red clouds at Barley's barn, which he interpreted as this day shall bring an unnecessary death. When Leopardfur, Whiteclaw's mentor, saw what had happened, she called the battle to an end, and said that Whiteclaw would be avenged with hostility deeply imbedded in her tone. Later, when Graystripe joins RiverClan, Leopardfur still does not trust him.

Secrets if the Clans
