"We shouldn't let the Clans push us around. If we leave, they will always remember us as weak." |
— Sagenose to Leafstar in The Raging Storm, chapter 15 |
Sagenose is a pale gray tom.[8]
Sagenose is a SkyClan warrior under Leafstar's leadership in the gorge and lake territories. He was born as Sage to Petalnose and Rainfur in a run-down Twoleg nest along with his sister, Mint, and soon joined the newly revived SkyClan as Sagekit. He was apprenticed as Sagepaw by his mother, and after becoming a warrior, Sagenose fathered Fidgetkit, Curlykit, and Snipkit with Birdwing.

A Vision of Shadows[]
- "We can’t go back to the gorge. Our life is here now. There’s plenty of prey in the forest, and there won’t be trouble from rogues anymore. Once we’ve shown the Clans that we can’t be pushed around, SkyClan can thrive beside the lake."
- ―Sagenose advocating for SkyClan to stay The Raging Storm, chapter 15
The Broken Code[]
- He receives his second apprentice, Kitepaw.
Super Editions[]
This section summarizes Sagenose's significant Super Editions appearances. If you're looking for a full list, find one here!
- In Firestar's Quest, Sage and Mint are young kits, born to their kittypet mother, Petal. Their Twoleg does nothing to help when Petal does not produce enough milk to feed Sage and his sister. Firestar arranges a rescue mission to free the family and bring them to the gorge with their father, Rainfur, where Sagekit and Mintkit are nursed by Clovertail. However, Rainfur is killed in the battle against the rats.
- In SkyClan's Destiny, Sagepaw is mentored by his mother, Petalnose. When he learns about the traits of ancient SkyClan cats, Sagepaw wishes to know if he could be descended from them. In an attempt to prove this, he loses his grip on a cliff and falls, dislocating his leg. He recovers, participating in an attack on his mother's former Twoleg who was revealed to have abused her and Shrewtooth.
- In Hawkwing's Journey, Sagenose and Birdwing have had three kits: Fidgetkit, Curlykit, and Snipkit. He is dubious of Echosong's interpretation of her vision. However, he is chosen to go on a mission lead by Darktail to find the other Clan cats. When Darktail and his rogues drive SkyClan from the gorge, Sagenose and Birdwing are separated from their kits, and Snipkit's body is found washed up by the river. Throughout the journey, Sagenose loses Curlypaw when she becomes a kittypet, and both Birdwing and Fidgetpaw when they are captured by Twolegs.

Author statements[]
Mistakes[]
- Sagenose is mistakenly referred to as a tabby.[10]

- It was revealed in the seventh Erin Hunter Chat that Sagepaw did, indeed, become a warrior, but at the time Vicky had forgotten what his warrior name was. She mentions that his name may have been Sagefur, but mistakenly refers to him as female.[13]
