"Owlnose is right. If all the Clans are making suggestions to StarClan about how to depose a leader, then surely we should think about the decisions we'll make if we find ourselves without a leader or deputy."
— Nightsky when RiverClan is without leadership in River, page 121


Nightsky is a dark gray she-cat with blue eyes.[6]

Nightsky is a RiverClan warrior who has served under Mistystar's, Owlnose's, Tigerstar's, and Splashtail's leaderships in the lake territories. She was born as Nightkit in Icewing and Mintfur's second litter alongside her sister Breezeheart. As an apprentice, Nightpaw was mentored by Shimmerpelt and earned her warrior name of Nightsky. When Mistystar and Reedwhisker's deaths leave RiverClan without a leader, Nightsky is anxious not to let the other Clans know and doubts that Owlnose should be RiverClan's new leader.

History[]

In the A Vision of Shadows arc[]

The Apprentice's Quest[]

Nightkit and her sister Breezekit are the newest kits of Mintfur and Icewing of RiverClan.

Thunder and Shadow[]

She is now an apprentice named Nightpaw with Shimmerpelt as her mentor. At a Gathering, Leafpaw of ThunderClan calls out Nightpaw and Breezepaw's names with a purr, and hurries to join them, with Larkpaw and Honeypaw following. She later attends another Gathering with Breezepaw and Wavepaw.

Darkest Night[]

At a Gathering, Nightpaw glances nervously at Breezepaw as tensions among the Clans remain high.

In The Broken Code arc[]

Darkness Within[]

Nightsky and Gorseclaw stand guard outside the prison for Bramblestar's impostor when ThunderClan cats arrive to speak with Tigerstar about whether they should kill the imposter. Shadowsight looks warily at the guards and wonders if RiverClan also wants to harm him.

In the A Starless Clan arc[]

River[]

«Nightsky and Lizardtail exchanged a glance. Sunbeam thought that Nightsky in particular seemed agitated; both cats looked like they would really like to refuse but couldn't think of any way they could argue with what Sunbeam had just said.»
—Sunbeam's thoughts about Lizardtail and Nightsky's odd behavior River (book), page 132
After Mistystar's death and Reedwhisker's disappearance, Nightsky wonders if they should be worried, but Mothwing insists it's too early to tell. She agrees with Owlnose that the changes being made to the warrior code should allow them to make their own decisions since they are without leadership. Later, she and Lizardtail are in a heated discussion when Sunbeam of ShadowClan calls over if they can help Hopwhisker since she injured her paw. Sunbeam notices how Nightsky appears especially agitated, but she and Lizardtail agree to help them. The RiverClan warriors lead them towards their camp, but they stop part way and Nightsky leaves to fetch Mothwing and Frostpaw. Sunbeam is curious about their odd behavior.

Sky[]

"I was making dirt. And I smelled ShadowClan scent. I found Tawnypelt waiting on the other side of the river."
―Nightsky Sky (book), page 202
While visiting RiverClan for catmint, Sunbeam recalls Nightsky's and Lizardtail's odd behavior from before. When Frostpaw reflects on who should be leader, she considers Nightsky, Sneezecloud, Havenpelt, and Breezeheart as experienced enough to be taken seriously, but believes they are not beyond the obvious choices per the direction of StarClan. Nightsky is doubtful of Frostpaw's choice of Owlnose as leader. While making dirt, Nightsky runs into Tawnypelt, who has a message from Tigerstar, and she brings her to camp. Later, Nightsky hunts with Gorseclaw and Havenpelt.

Shadow[]

When Frostpaw decides to train as a warrior, Nightsky and Owlnose offer to mentor her. Tigerstar thanks them for their interest but instead chooses Harelight.

Wind[]

Nightsky yowls in agreement when Splashtail declares that they will have their revenge on ShadowClan.

In the Super Editions[]
