Bramblestar's impostor/PR

Personality

 * The impostor is cruel, cunning, tyrannical, and hypocritical. He claims to believe in the firm following of the warrior code, but as stated by several cats, he appears to only want to hurt and control, using fear to enforce his leadership. A notable example of this is when Bristlefrost realizes that when he is berating Sparkpelt, he seems to enjoy the fear she was showing. He is quite manipulative and persuasive, appealing to Shadowsight, a young apprentice, to use an unusual method to kill Bramblestar in order to steal his body, and Bristlefrost, a young warrior whom he is able to mold into his "eyes and ears" in ThunderClan. He uses the silence of StarClan to further his own agenda and out the codebreakers, becoming angry when the other leaders don't comply with him. He is defensive about Bramblestar's death, refusing to answer questions regarding it.


 * Although acting as ThunderClan's leader, he does not care for any of the members, only using them for his own selfish goals and what it can get him. He got Dewnose's name wrong, and snapped at him when Dewnose corrected him. Furthermore, he believed that Flipclaw (who he had just made a warrior not long before) was Dewnose's apprentice, and still training under him. He stops the care of the elders, and makes it so that he gets first to pick from the fresh-kill pile over the elders and queens.


 * He is very willing to harm cats, as he tried to kill Sparkpelt when she tried to look for Lionblaze and was displeased when his plan had failed, and had subtlety threatened the lives of Finchpaw and Flamepaw if Sparkpelt broke the code again. When Tree refused to go into exile, the impostor threatened to harm Tree's kin unless he complied.


 * Even though he claims to be Bramblestar, he makes no attempt to mimic the personality of his host body, arousing suspicion from several cats. Cats such as Squirrelflight, Stemleaf, Spotfur, Twigbranch, and Finleap became suspicious of his demeanor, while others such as Lionblaze, Thornclaw, and Graystripe were appalled by his actions and personality.


 * He appears to know and had a bias for Squirrelflight, but any and all relationship that he feigned with her was terminated when she outed him as an impostor. He also seems to hold a bias against Lionblaze, banishing him from the camp temporarily as a punishment, and shows a visible dislike of Leafpool and Bramblestar. His listing of the codebreakers suggests a vendetta against the listed cats, over cats who have broken the code much significantly worse and are still residing in the Clans. He also appears bitter about the fact that Squirrelflight and Leafpool lied to the Clans of the true parentage of Hollyleaf, Lionblaze, and Jayfeather.
