Mother: Smokefoot (NPC//Deceased)
Father: Hailstorm (NPC//Deceased)
Siblings: None
History: Born into FlakeClan, Ravenfeather had a fairly normal kit-hood. He was born as the only kit to a black molly, Smokefoot, and her grey tabby mate, Hailstorm. He became an apprentice at 5 moons, a little earlier than usual so that he could train alongside the other apprentices, who were a moon older than he. His smaller size did nothing to hinder him, and he trained as well as any cat would.
When he was 10 moons old, Smokefoot was lost after a tree fell on her den during a vicious storm. The loss was devastating to Ravenfeather, with it being the first real loss of someone close to him. His father Hailstorm helped him through it, and with time Ravenfeather was to learn that death was a part of Clan life, and to become a warrior, one must power through.
At the age of 14 moons, Ravenfeather became a warrior. He was overjoyed, and made a promise to his father to work harder than all of the other newly-appointed warriors. His joy was short-lived, however. Two moons later, a battle with a group of rogue cats cost Ravenfeather his right eye and his father. The loss of Hailstorm really drove Ravenfeather to retreat into himself, All of a sudden there was no-one he could open up to. Though now he has made peace with his father's death, he is no longer outgoing and optimistic.
He took on his first apprentice, Lynxpaw, at the age of 35 moons. The training was going well, and after 3 moons Lynxpaw was well on his way to becoming a warrior. However, a Clan-cat-turned-rogue by the name of Shadowheart ended Lynxpaw's short life, driving Ravenfeather into a deep depression. He vowed that he would never make the same mistake, and was assigned Raggedpaw as his next apprentice.
Shadow's terrible massacre of the majority of FlakeClan drove the Clan to disband. Ravenfeather left alongside Damp-paw and Palefoot to escape certain death, and the three eventually joined SwiftClan after a moon of searching for a new home. The Clan was fairly new, and due to his experience as a warrior, Ravenfeather became leader of SwiftClan at 40 moons.
The leadership came too soon for Ravenfeather, however. He had not been give enough time to grieve over Lynxpaw's death and the collapse of FlakeClan, and it showed in the way he led the Clan. He would rarely communicate with his clanmates, and refused to move on from the death of any cat.
Eventually, SwiftClan also disbanded, putting Ravenfeather, Palefoot, and Damp-paw on the road again. StarClan did not take Ravenfeather's leader's lives away right away, and he used the opportunity to track down Shadow. He eventually found the rogue and brutally killed him, disfiguring the body as much as he could. After killing Shadow, Ravenfeather went back to visit Lynxpaw's grave. He did not ask for forgiveness; instead, he begged for closure and the hope that Lynxpaw still considered him family.
It was then that StarClan appeared to him, outraged that SwiftClan had collapsed under his rule. They took away his extra lives, and in the vision, Ravenfeather saw Lynxheart there. He called out to him, but the younger cat would not meet his eye.
After this, Ravenfeather met back up with Palefoot and Damp-paw.
