Rowanstar (BS)

Rowanclaw is a dark ginger tom.

Into the Woods

 * He is seen as an apprentice on patrol with Tigerstar and his mentor, Jaggedtooth. When he smells a frog, he says that frogs are disgusting, but Tigerstar replies that prey is prey, good or not. He pounces at it, but misses although Sasha catches it. When she is seen, he and his mentor both try to attack her, but Tigerstar sends them back to camp with the frog.

A Dangerous Path

 * However, he is mentioned by Tigerstar at a Gathering, though not by name.

Midnight

 * Rowanclaw is now a warrior with an apprentice, Talonpaw.

Moonrise

 * He continues to train Talonpaw, and is still named as a she-cat in the allegiances.

Dawn

 * He, along with his Clanmates, journey with the rest of the Clans to their new home by the lake.

Starlight

 * Rowanclaw attacks Brambleclaw, after the ThunderClan warrior accidentally crosses the new scent-line. He is stopped by Tawnypelt, who says they shouldn't be fighting so soon. He then calls her a half-Clan warrior and disloyal.

Twilight

 * His apprentice, Talonpaw, was badly wounded by two kittypets called Susan and Jacques. He manages to get back to the camp but later dies. When he leads a patrol to take revenge, Susan and Jacques' Twolegs defend them and throw things, one of which strikes Cedarheart's leg, injuring him. Brambleclaw offers help against the kittypets along with Squirrelflight, and Blackstar, rather oddly but reluctantly, agrees.

Sunset

 * He was there when ShadowClan placed their scent markers in ThunderClan territory, and were caught by a patrol. The ShadowClan patrol had the ThunderClan patrol outnumbered, but a ThunderClan apprentice brought ThunderClan reinforcements, and fought the ShadowClan cats back.

The Sight

 * Rowanclaw has another apprentice, Ivypaw.

Dark River

 * It is revealed that he is Tawnypelt's mate, and therefore confirmed a tom and father of Tigerkit, Flamekit and Dawnkit. When Squirrelflight congratulates him, he pointedly tells her that he is the proud father of three Clanborn ShadowClan kits, a barbed jibe at ThunderClan.

Outcast

 * When Tawnypelt leaves to go to the Mountains, he tells her that he is proud of her for going, even if the rest of her Clanmates thought what she was doing was disloyal. He also told her he would help look after their kits, while Snowbird nursed them.

Eclipse

 * When Lionpaw, Hollypaw, Jaypaw, and Sol arrive at ShadowClan's camp, Rowanclaw is seen guarding the entrance.

Sunrise

 * It is mentioned that he went with the rest of ShadowClan to the Gathering.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Rowanclaw is seen briefly while leading a patrol. Toadfoot calls out a greeting, but the patrol does not approach him or answer.

Fading Echoes

 * Rowanclaw is seen flanking Blackstar with Russetfur, during the deadly battle against ThunderClan. He is also seen later in the battle, fighting Lionblaze.

Battles of the Clans

 * He is revealed to be Blackstar's new deputy. He welcomes Onestar and the kittypet visitors to ShadowClan's camp, and explains their style of hunting and fighting. He says that ShadowClan specializes in stalking silently and staying hidden in the shadows, without giving any sign of their presence. Unlike the other Clans, he says, who use elaborate battle formations, ShadowClan fights to win, and strikes quickly before vanishing into the night.

Ultimate Leader Election: Firestar

 * He is with Russetfur and Smokefoot trying to capture two injured RiverClan cats on ShadowClan territory: Pouncetail and Otterheart. The two cats get near the ThunderClan border, where Firestar sees them and offers to take them back to his camp to be treated, but the ShadowClan patrol says that they were part of a RiverClan patrol stealing prey, so they are prisoners of ShadowClan, injured or not. Rowanclaw tells Firestar, "We'll decide how much they should be punished." Firestar then points out that they stepped just into ThunderClan territory, so he takes them away, and Rowanclaw and the others leave grudgingly.


 * When it is his turn to vote during the Gathering, he votes for Firestar.

Trivia

 * Up until Starlight, Rowanclaw was described as a she-cat in the allegiances.
