Jayfeather
Since the last arc, our favorite snarky tom has become bitter and jaded after the revelation of his true parentage tore his family apart.

Lionblaze
This powerful tom has achieved his dream of becoming a strong, respected warior, but with his sister gone, a power no other cat can understand, and the prophecy still hanging over his head, it sometimes seems a hollow victory. Still, life goes on, and Lionblaze finds comfort in his responsibilites as a warrior, a mentor, and in the new friendship he forms with a certain she-cat. But as ever, the prophecy looms and threatens to take away what Lionblaze treasures most. Can he fulfill his destiny and still be with the cats he cares for most? Or are friendship and love things that only belong to the life of a normal warrior – a life he will never know?

Tigerheart
The handsome, charming son of Tawnypelt may share the name of his murderous kin, but his easy-going nature and appearance of loyalty seems to suggest he doesn’t share his dark ambitions. However, the shadows of Tigerstar’s legacy are not so easily tossed aside, and for all his charming demeanor suggests, Tigerheart may harbor more of his grandfather’s darkness than he lets on. When the Clans are pushed to the brink of war, which side will Tigerheart stand with? Are his loyalties with the light, the darkness, or something – or someone – else entirely?

Flametail
ShadowClan’s young new medicine cat doesn’t share the uncertainty over a dark legacy of his brother, or the family drama and confusions of loyalty seen in ThunderClan. But as the growing tide of darkness begins to throw StarClan into disarray, Flametail finds himself caught up in the growing divisions for both the living and dead. He is determined to honor his ancestors and put the safety of his own Clan first, but in the face of such a terrible power, one cat’s courage will not be enough to keep his Clan safe. Will he be able to withstand the coming storm and keep his Clan from being swept away? Or will the overwhelming force of other cats’ destinies drown him out in the end?

Half Moon
When Jayfeather traveled to the time long past when the ancestors of the Tribe of Rushing Water last lived beside the lake, he met a young she-cat who harbored obvious feelings for his ancient counterpart Jay’s Wing. At the time, Jayfeather was too focused on learning more about these ancient cats and their ties to the prophecy to pay her much mind. But Half Moon is more than just a pretty face with nothing to do but fawn over one scrawny tabby. Her devotion to her groupmates and a keen mind and heart open to the possibilities of worlds beyond mark her as a very special cat indeed. What role does this unique cat have yet to play in Jayfeather’s story? And when the past and the present are forced to meet as ancient grudges finally come to a head, will Half Moon reunite with the one separated from her by time and space?

Cinderheart
When Cinderpelt died at the claws of badgers in the early days in the lake territories, she was given a rare second chance at life in the form of Cinderheart. The tabby warior is currently unaware that she is the reincarnation of the dead medicine cat, but more than once, hints of the she-cat that shares her spirit have shone through. As the cats who know the truth struggle with whether to tell her and the cats who don’t try to build a life with her as the warrior they know her to be, it is ultimately Cinderheat who must decide who she truly is. Is she Cinderpelt, the medicine cat who gave up her dreams of being a warrior and devoted herself to the life of a healer? Is she Cinderheart, the warrior who just wants to live a normal life with her friends and family? Or is she, for better or worse, some mix of the two?
