Weaselstar

Weaselstar is the current leader of ShadowClan. He is described as a long-haired tortoiseshell tom with a white underbelly and amber eyes.

Weaselstar was born to the late ShadowClan she-cat Marshtail, and is brother to Thornpelt. He was mentored by Darkstar, and was mentor to Snaketail, who eventually became his deputy. His warrior name was Weaselfur.

Weaselstar was considered by the Dark Forest cats to be a valuable asset to their plan, but Stonetooth quickly ignored Weaselstar after the young ShadowClan tom was visited by the StarClan warrior Sandstorm, who ignited his passion and loyalty for his Clan. Weaselstar fought against his own leader, Briarstar, after he and Lionclaw tried to destroy the four Clans and create DarkClan. He became a EarthClan leader alonside Tallstar, Volestar and Gorsestar (then Gorsepelt). After Lionclaw was killed and DarkClan was split, he overtook leadership of ShadowClan when Briarstar retired to the elders' den. He named his own apprentice Snaketail as deputy.

Although Weaselstar has a prickly, proud personality, his allegiance during the battle between EarthClan and DarkClan helped him to form a close friendship with Tallstar, and he sometimes displays grudging generosity to the ThunderClan leader. Since his leadership, ShadowClan has lived in peace and comfort.
