Harestar

Harestar was the former leader of WindClan, the mate of Leopardpelt and the father of Fallwind, Runningbreeze and Fernstep. He was described as a long-limbed pale gray tom with blue eyes.

Harestar's parents are unknown, as was his mentor. He was brother to Stormwind, who died shortly after Harestar became leader. His warrior name was Hareflight. Harestar was named deputy after Rainstar's original deputy, Mousewhisker, drowned at the lake. He became Harestar after Rainstar died of old age. He named Voletooth his deputy.

Harestar was an unusually short-furred tom, and he was often regarded by the other Clan cats as strange, for he spoke little, and when he did his voice was quiet and soft. However, Harestar was an impecable fighter, and enjoyed rushing into battle far in front of his Clanmates. He died before DarkClan came into being, but he was one of the StarClan cats to warn the Clan cats of DarkClan's rising. Stonetooth fought with Harestar in the Dark Forest, claiming that his "loose lips" could have destroyed DarkClan. Harestar escaped, but not before Stonetooth threatened his children, claiming he would kill them all. He was unsuccessful, however, and Harestar was seen in StarClan beaming as his children were given their warrior names, the first day WindClan was re-created.
