Dawnpelt

Dawnpelt is a cream-furred she-cat.

Dark River

 * Dawnkit, along with her siblings Flamekit and Tigerkit, are mentioned by Blackstar at a Gathering as the kits of Tawnypelt. Many of the senior warriors are agitated at the mention of Tigerkit's name, most likely because of Tigerstar.

Outcast

 * She appears with her brothers, Tigerkit and Flamekit in the ShadowClan nursery, when Lionpaw and Brambleclaw arrive asking Tawnypelt to go to the mountains. Dawnkit leads a play attack on Lionpaw, which he mistakes for an actual attack, until he realizes that they were only playing. When their mother tells them she will be leaving, they somber up and beg her not to go, or to at least take them with her. Tawnypelt tells Snowbird, another queen, to watch them very carefully and flicks Dawnkit over the ear on her way out. Tawnypelt comments to Squirrelflight on the journey that Dawnkit looks to be the best fighter out of her kits. She also doesn't listen to what any cat tells her to do. Squirrelflight counsels Tawnypelt that Dawnkit will learn to listen, because all kits do.

Eclipse

 * Dawnkit is seen in ShadowClan when Hollypaw, Lionpaw, and Jaypaw get captured. She seems to be most interested in Hollypaw than the other two kits.

Long Shadows

 * Dawnpaw is now an apprentice. She, Flamepaw, and Tigerpaw are taken to ThunderClan with Tawnypelt. She is reluctant to be a part of ThunderClan but accepts it. She expresses the ideas Sol has been teaching ShadowClan when she and her siblings take the best prey for themselves and leave the other pieces lying on the muddy ground. Her reluctancy is shown by making comments like, "I wish we were back sleeping on nice soft pine needles!" Her temporary mentor is Spiderleg. She, like her siblings, does not understand ThunderClan fighting and hunting techniques and constantly asks questions that other cats find ignorant.


 * Dawnpaw, Flamepaw, and Tigerpaw help Jaypaw, Lionblaze, and Hollyleaf send a fake sign to Blackstar and Littlecloud. She is reluctant to but the others tell her "Don't you miss the old ShadowClan?" After the trick, in which both Raggedstar and Runningnose from StarClan showed up, is finished, Blackstar drives Sol out from ShadowClan, and she, her brothers, and mother return to ShadowClan.

Sunrise

 * Upon returning to ShadowClan, Dawnpaw receives Ivytail for her mentor. She does not appear in Sunrise, but is seen in the allegiances.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Dawnpaw is now a warrior called Dawnpelt.


 * She is seen at the Gathering volunteering to go see what has blocked the water. Her brothers' new full names are Flametail and Tigerheart. Dawnpelt is later seen congratulating her brother, Tigerheart, when he returns from unblocking the water. At the end of the book it is thought that her brother Tigerheart is to be a chosen cat from the Dark Forest to fight in the battle between StarClan and the Dark Forest.

Fading Echoes

 * Dawnpelt appears in the ShadowClan-ThunderClan battle fighting Dovepaw. She is defeated by Blossomfall and Dovepaw.
