User:Thornheart

Thornheart is a long-furred, dark tortoiseshell and white she-cat, with emerald green eyes.

In Wolfblaze's Story
Thornkit is first seen in Wolfblaze's Story in the prologue, after Wolfstar lost his last life due to enemy rogues. She is seen opening her eyes for the first with a start and wailing 'Scar', the name of the rogue that killed her father. She is in her mother, Shadowstream's lap, when she opens her eyes.

In Midnight Sun
Thornkit is seen playing outside the nursery for the first time. She is later made an apprentice, along with her brother Bristlekit. Thornkit becomes Thornpaw, and is assigned as Rootclaw's apprentice, and Bristlepaw is assigned to Briarheart. Rootclaw is seen with Thornpaw and Bristlepaw, telling them a story about when he was an apprentice, and Wolfstar was still leader.

Thornpaw was chosen to go on a patrol with Rootclaw, Vinetail, and Hawkstar. They encounter the same pack of rogues that killed Wolfstar, but the rogues quickly flee.

Thornpaw is exiting the nursery from visiting Maplefur and Hawkstar's kits, while Vinetail is entering.

Later, Thornpaw also joins Vinetail in her first battle against StormClan on the border. She fights a black StormClan apprentice, who she later learns is Nightpaw. Vinetail sees her chasing the apprentice away, and she had earned her first battle scar, on her shoulder.

In the next leaf-bare, Bristlepaw catches Whitecough, and Thornpaw is seen in the medicine cat's den, with her sick brother. Bristlepaw soon recovers, and he returns to his apprentice duties.

Vinetail also sees Thornpaw bring fresh-kill to the elders as Vinetail is walking to the fresh-kill pile.

Thornpaw is not seen throughout the rest of the book, though she is supposedly in the battle against SandClan, as Hawkstar announces the battle party.
