Code of the Clans

 * Robinwing is an ancient SkyClan warrior.


 * He witnesses his leader Beechstar's death after he is wounded in a battle with RiverClan. When the old leader appoints his son Mothpelt as his successor, Robinwing has his doubts about Mothpelt's ability to be a leader. He shares some of his doubts with Maplewhisker, the SkyClan deputy, saying he doesn't agree with Mothpelt. They had both train with Mothpelt, and see him struggle to mentor apprentices, and they worry about his ability to lead.


 * Later, as SkyClan prepares for battle with RiverClan, Robinwing worries about the height of the river, as it had been raining that day. Nevertheless, he follows his Clan to the river, helping his apprentice, Rubblepaw, along the way. When he gets there, he is horrified at the size of the river; it has flooded. When Mothpelt continues the attack, Robinwing leaps at him and pulls him to the ground. Robinwing tells Mothpelt that they cannot cross, and that cats will die in the floodwaters. Mothpelt calls him a RiverClan traitor, and does not listen to him and watches helplessly as over half the Clan follows Mothpelt into the angry river.


 * Maplewhisker comes up with an idea that one cat will help a Clanmate and have two cats in a chain behind them, and Robinwing is very proud of her for her idea. He teams up with Spiderpelt and Rubblepaw. He pulls his Clanmate Squirrelfur from the river, as well as one other unnamed warrior and two apprentices. After that, Maplewhisker tells him to rest, but he tells her he must help Mothpelt first. Robinwing tells Maplewhisker that she must become leader, saying cats respect her as the deputy, and that they will respect her as a leader. As he goes into the river to get Mothpelt, he tells himself that he will suggest a new addition to the warrior code: the deputies become leader after the older one dies, as the cats best used to leadership and dealing with rival Clans.
