"That's right! You always think you're better than us, just because we once needed your help before the Clans came to the lake."
— Whiskernose to a ThunderClan patrol in The Forgotten Warrior, page 308


Whiskernose is a light brown tom.[1]

Whiskernose is a WindClan elder who has served under Onestar's and Harestar's leaderships in the lake territories. He was born in the lake territories under Onestar's leadership. As an apprentice, Whiskerpaw was mentored by Owlwhisker. After earning his warrior name, Whiskernose demonstrated aggression towards ThunderClan in several border skirmishes. He was one of the younger warriors who was manipulated by Sol to attack ThunderClan in the tunnels. Whiskernose also trained in the Dark Forest but fought for the Clans in the Great Battle. He retired to the elders' den due to his injuries from the battle.

History[]

In the Omen of the Stars arc[]

The Fourth Apprentice[]

Whiskerpaw is a WindClan apprentice and his mentor is Owlwhisker.

Sign of the Moon[]

«WindClan welcomed the young tom, who ducked his head, looking pleased and embarrassed. Dovewing joined in, though she noticed that not many cats from other Clans were doing the same.»
—Dovewing's thoughts about Whiskernose Sign of the Moon, page 75
He is announced to have received his warrior name, Whiskernose, at the Gathering. He is seen ducking his head as WindClan cats call his name, looking both pleased and embarrassed by his Clanmates' praise. Dovewing notices that not many cats from other Clans are welcoming the new warrior, and wonders what is happening to the Clans. Dovewing thinks to herself that Gatherings should be a time for Clans to be at peace with one another.

The Forgotten Warrior[]

Whiskernose: "That's right! You always think you're better than us, just because we once needed your help before the Clans came to the lake."
Sandstorm: "What do you know about that? You weren't even kitted then!"
—The battle in the tunnels The Forgotten Warrior, page 309
Whiskernose is part of the WindClan patrol in the battle in the tunnels, along with Breezepelt, Weaselfur, Harespring, Heathertail, and Furzepelt. When Heathertail accuses Jayfeather of murdering Flametail and ThunderClan of crossing WindClan boundaries and stealing prey, Whiskernose adds that ThunderClan cats always thinks their Clan is better than WindClan's, just because WindClan once needed ThunderClan's help before the Clans came to the lake. Sandstorm retorts that he was not even kitted at the time. Dovewing is shocked by the hostility directed at the ThunderClan cats from the young warriors, and she knows that it is unfair. ThunderClan is unable to defend themselves, because the WindClan patrol would not listen to reason.

In the Super Editions[]

Crowfeather's Trial[]

Crowfeather compares Breezepelt to the other cats who had been trained by the Place of No Stars, stating that they had all come to their senses and fought with the Clans while Breezepelt had fought on the side of the Dark Forest. As Onestar's speech comes to an end, Whiskernose is seen with Larkwing and Furzepelt, two other Dark Forest trainees, heading to camp. Crowfeather thinks about how Onestar had let Whiskernose retire with honor to the elders' den because of the injuries he had sustained during the Great Battle.
Later, when Onestar calls a Clan meeting, Whiskernose is seen emerging from the elders' den with Whitetail. He complains about Onestar holding a meeting so early in the morning whilst vigorously scratching himself behind one ear. Larkwing goes to sit by him. After hearing Hootpaw's account of the mysterious cat he saw, Whiskernose scoffs and asks why it would give a message to an apprentice. After Crouchfoot suggests that it might have been a Dark Forest cat, Whiskernose contradicts him, saying that Dark Forest cats would not come back as white. He instead suggests that white is like StarClan, and that it must be a cat that fought on their side. He then reminds Kestrelflight that not every cat who died in the Great Battle had been seen in StarClan yet.
After the battle with the stoats, Whiskernose talks to Crouchfoot about how maybe the stoats were ghosts after all, as they seem to have something personal against WindClan. Kestrelflight says they are not ghosts, and Whiskernose and Crouchfoot look at each other and don’t respond. At a Gathering, Whiskernose stands with Breezepelt and the other WindClan cats who had trained with the Dark Forest, saying that they will prove their loyalty. At the next Gathering, Onestar gives a special thanks to Whiskernose, Harespring, Larkwing, and Breezepelt.
