Snaketail (PoT)

Snaketail is a dark brown tom with a tabby-striped tail.

Eclipse

 * Snaketail is seen twice in Eclipse, both times sitting with his apprentice, Scorchpaw. He, along with his apprentice, helped Hollypaw fight off a RiverClan tom during the battle against WindClan.


 * Later in the book, Scorchpaw asked him who Sol was when he came to the camp with Lionpaw, Jaypaw, and Hollypaw. Snaketail told him he didn't know.

Long Shadows

 * Snaketail is seen on a patrol with Ivytail and Scorchpaw when Hazeltail chases a squirrel near the territory. They show hostility toward Hazeltail and the others, and when Snaketail says that Sol makes more sense than StarClan and insults ThunderClan by saying they are cowardly, Birchfall launches himself on top of Snaketail in fury.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Snaketail is now retired to be an elder since his apprentice, Scorchpaw (known as Scorchfur) is now a warrior. It is unknown whether it is due to old age or a disability.

Ultimate Leader Election: Firestar

 * Snaketail asks if the Clan cats' consciences should not be allied with loyalty to our Clan. He puts in that a full fed Clan is a strong Clan, and he has no interest in giving a battle advantage to any Clan but his own.

Battles of the Clans

 * At a Gathering, Snaketail is pointed out by Dapplenose, along with his Clanmates Tallpoppy and Cedarheart. It is implied that he and his Clanmates are making rude faces at the reader. Snaketail doesn't believe Dapplenose when she says she could run faster than all of the ShadowClan cats back when they were all warriors.


 * When Pouncetail is telling the story of the great battle in ThunderClan territory, he mentions how Snaketail was one of the cats the RiverClan warriors ambushed in the Twoleg nest. Snaketail is attacked by Reedwhisker and hit his head on a lump of stone, allowing Reedwhisker to pin him down. He flees afterwards with his Clanmates.
