Stripes

Stripes is a large silver tabby tom with dark stripes and amber eyes.

Outcast

 * Stripes and his group of rogues invade the Tribe of Rushing Water's territory and start to steal their prey. He is suspected to be the leader of the intruders because he seems to speak for them most of the time.


 * His group of rogues first appear when Hollypaw gives the location of her group away by yowling excitedly at the exhilarating view. Talon is aware that the intruders could come at any moment, and he shares his concerns. Brambleclaw urgently meows that they need to flee, but Night yowls that there is not time and yells the other warriors to protect the apprentices by surrounding them in a circle. Squirrelflight, Tawnypelt, Crowfeather, Stormfur, Brook, Talon, Night, and Brambleclaw protectively surround Hollypaw, Lionpaw, Jaypaw, and Breezepaw. Jaypaw describes being able to hear their aggressive hisses, as the scents of four cats surround them. Stripes, at their head, carefully examines the twelve cats in the group.


 * He recognizes Talon, and asks him, tauntingly, why he was so far from the waterfall, assuming his tribe no longer hunted in these parts due to Stripes' hunting party. Flick, a member of his party, nudges Stripes, and suggests that the Tribe and Clan cats are very scared. Stripes supports that theory by licking his lips mockingly as he remembers out loud about the rabbit he had that morning that was almost too much for him to eat. Crowfeather snaps at him for his lack of respect for his prey.


 * Flick then asks Stripes what he plans to do with these cats. When tempers start rising again. Brambleclaw steps in again, reminding everyone that their group is not looking for a fight. Stripes and Flick share a glance, and Stripes steps back in no attempt to stop the Clan cats. He lets them go safely.
