Swallowtail (WC)

Swallowtail is a dark gray she-cat.

Bramblestar's Storm

 * When the four Clans gather for their usual Gathering, Blackstar mentions their fallen Clanmates in a tribute. Swallowtail is among the fallen, alongside many of her WindClan allies.

The Sight

 * Swallowkit, along with her two siblings, Thistlekit and Sedgekit, are born into WindClan. Their mother is Gorsetail.

Dark River

 * Swallowkit, along with her siblings, Thistlekit and Sedgekit, wander into the secret tunnels under WindClan and ThunderClan, while their mother is absent from the nursery. They had followed Heatherpaw to one of her secret meetings with Lionpaw, and that is where the apprentices suspected they headed to. Lionpaw, Hollypaw, Jaypaw, Heatherpaw, and Breezepaw, find that they got trapped behind a boulder while they were exploring when they came to rescue them. Breezepaw is the one who carries her when they make their escape through the underground river.


 * The kits' disappearance almost causes a WindClan to fight against RiverClan and ThunderClan, until the five apprentices bring them back to WindClan, and the three kits then promised not to tell anybody about the tunnels.

Long Shadows

 * She becomes an apprentice and her mentor is Willowclaw. She is the only kit out of her litter to be listed as an apprentice in the allegiances.

Sunrise

 * Her siblings, Thistlepaw and Sedgepaw, are now apprentices, too.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Swallowpaw becomes a warrior known as Swallowtail, and her sister, Sedgepaw, has become Sedgewhisker.

Night Whispers

 * She asks where Whitetail is and another cat tells Swallowtail that she was using Onestar's den for the night.

Sign of the Moon

 * When Dovewing accidentally uses her special senses, she ends up seeing WindClan's camp, where Antpelt is dying. Swallowtail is hysterical upon Antpelt's death and is seen screeching and yowling at Kestrelflight, wanting him to help Antpelt in any way. Kestrelflight tries to save Antpelt, but states that he has gone to hunt with his ancestors now and Swallowtail lets out a last, devastated cry. Dovewing then mentions that she remembered seeing her at the Gathering with Antpelt, and assumes that they had been mates.

Trivia

 * Vicky doesn't think that Swallowtail and Antpelt were mates.
