Secrets of the Clans

 * Thunder appears in this book as a loner. He thought he should rule the forest, because he could fight and hunt the best in the undergrowth and trees. He was said to be strong, courageous, and determined. After his fallen companions- the very first StarClan cats- talked to him and the other cats, though, he became the first leader of ThunderClan. He worked with the other four leaders, Wind, River, Shadow, and Sky, to develop the warrior code. It was said in Clan legend that Thunder was the leader who developed some of the warrior code's more compassionate elements.

Long Shadows

 * In the prologue, Thunder and all the ancient leaders meet with Midnight to discuss the loner, Sol. The leaders, especially Shadow and Wind, show their hostility but Thunder continues to ask questions carefully, trying to avoid a fight.
