Rushtail (RC)

Rushtail is a small light brown tabby she-cat with short legs.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Her mentor is listed to be Pebblefoot.

Sign of the Moon



 * She now has recieved her warrior name, Rushtail. Mistystar announces it at the Gathering, along with Troutstream's warrior name.

Battles of the Clans

 * Rushpaw is featured in a story in which Mistystar is training a group of apprentices: Duckpaw, Tanglepaw, and Pikepaw.


 * Rushpaw complains that the water is cold, and is confused at first when Mistystar asks if Rushpaw would like to run ahead and tell the enemy where they are and where they're planning to attack, but then apologizes. Rushpaw tries to keep up with the other apprentices, but her head bobs from side to side, and she pants for breath. Mistystar can tell that she is struggling because of her short legs. Rushpaw yelps and splashes when trying to get out of the water silently, because she stubs her toe on a stone. When rebuked by Tanglepaw, Rushpaw argues that she is not hopeless, but a lot smaller than he is. Mistystar thinks Rushpaw is to be very immature during training, and clumsy because of her short legs.


 * While the four apprentices practice their ambushing skills, Rushpaw tells the other apprentices not to swim too fast. When Pikepaw suggests that Rushpaw stay behind, Rushpaw refuses. When trying to get out of the water, Rushpaw accidentally splashes some water with her tail in the opposite direction and Mistystar heads that way. They get mad at her then, but the apprentices take the opportunity to attack Mistystar from behind. When Mistystar asks who made the splash downstream, Rushpaw admits that it was she, and that she had lost her balance. Instead of scolding Rushpaw, Mistystar says the move Rushpaw used was brilliant and turns it into a special RiverClan battle move called the Rushpaw Splash. Rushpaw finds it hard to believe that she did something right, let alone invent a new move.

Trivia

 * Rushpaw has also been mistakenly described as a tom.
