Dawn of the Clans is the fifth arc of the popular Warrior Cats series, after the Omen of the Stars arc. Beginning in 2013, it tells the tale of the origins and early days of the Warrior Clans, when the Warrior Code had yet to be created, and the Clan founders still ruled.As usual, the arc has six books: The Sun Trail Thunder Rising The First Battle The Blazing Star A Forest Divided Path Of StarsIn addition, Moth Flight's Vision, the 2015 Super Edition, takes place in this timeline and serves as an epilogue to the arc. It stars Moth Flight, the first medicine cat, and explains the beginnings of the medicine code and how the founders got their nine lives. The Dawn of the Clans characters are also featured in Warriors: The Ultimate Guide.The story of the series focuses on a group of cats known as the Followers of the Sun Trail. Originally members of what would become the Tribe of Rushing Water, these sixteen cats set off from their mountain home to find a new place to live when it became clear that there wasn't enough food to support everyone. The outside world comes as a shock to cats that have spent their whole lives in the mountains, and they are forced to adapt to it on their journey. Eventually, they encounter a seemingly idyllic forest. However, their arrival causes tensions to rise with the forest cats, and they are soon thrust into a conflict far beyond anything the forest has ever known.The series stars many legendary cats from the past, such as Graywing the Wise, Clear Sky, Tall Shadow, Thunder, Wind Runner, River Ripple, and many others.

Anyone Can Die
 Warrior Cats: Dawn of the Clans / int_1237828f
comment
Anyone Can Die: After Power of Three and Omen of the Stars flip-flopped with this, The Sun Trail brings it back full force with the deaths of Bright Stream, Shaded Moss, and Storm, all of them being major characters. Thunder Rising kept this going, killing off Moon Shadow and Bumble. The First Battle went even further with Turtle Tail, Falling Feather, Hawk Swoop, Frost, Rainswept Flower, and Jackdaw's Cry dying. The second half generally only has one major death per book though, with The Blazing Star having Petal die to save her adopted kits, A Forest Divided having Quiet Rain die after reuniting with her sons, and Path of Stars having Gray Wing die surrounded by his friends and family.

Trailers Always Spoil
 Warrior Cats: Dawn of the Clans / int_143939c1
comment
Trailers Always Spoil: Before The Sun Trail even came out, the sample blurb of Thunder Rising revealed that the group would split into two, Gray Wing and Clear Sky would become enemies, and Thunder would have some sort of connection to Gray Wing and Clear Sky. The full blurb of Thunder Rising flat out states that Clear Sky is Thunder’s father. The blurb of Thunder Rising also reveals the mid-book twist of Clear Sky asking Thunder to join his group and heavily implies that Thunder goes with him, but leaves to return to the moor, which is exactly what happens. Before A Forest Divided was released, the blurb of Path of Stars revealed that Star Flower would become Clear Sky's mate and carry his kits.

Gender-Equal Ensemble: Eight toms and eight she-cats form the Followers of the Sun Trail. Later in The Sun Trail, this is still the case, even with deaths. One tom and one she-cat die, keeping the number even. In the bonus scene of The Blazing Star, two more Tribe cats, one tom and one she-cat, leave the Tribe to follow the Sun Trail, still keeping the number even.

Mythology Gag
 Warrior Cats: Dawn of the Clans / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Storm calls Gray Wing "Gray Whatsit", which is the name that Rusty gave to Graypaw when they first met in Into the Wild. Remember the mountain hunting skills that Gray Wing showed to Jagged Peak? Those were first shown in Battles of the Clans as WindClan battle strategies invented by Gray Wing himself. It looks like we know where he got them. Turtle Tail scares Bumble by telling her that she eats bones. This is obviously meant to be a joke about how kittypets view Clan cats. Gray Wing and Gorse meet when they crash into each other and then start to fight. This is the reverse of how Firestar and Graystripe met: they started fighting, but when Graystripe crashed into Firestar they stopped fighting and became friends. Part of Clear Sky's situation in The Sun Trail is one. The pure-hearted tortoiseshell she-cat that he loves dies, causing him great pain, but he eventually gets together with a spunky cat named Storm? Now where have we heard that one before? The cover of The First Battle obviously references A Dangerous Path with its shot of two lines of cats preparing for a fight.

Legendary in the Sequel
 Warrior Cats: Dawn of the Clans / int_26b0a73
comment
Legendary in the Sequel: Inverted. The Sun Trail is about the founders of the Clans before they were legends, so it's more like "unlegendary in the prequel". So far, we have seen every Clan founder, as well as many other legendary cats like Graywing the Wise, Pebbleheart, Dapplepelt, Cloudspots, Mothflight, Owleyes, Gorsestar, and possibly Duststar.

Kick the Dog

Kick the Dog: Clear Sky did plenty of this in Thunder Rising. The stuff he did includes bullying Jagged Peak when the latter has difficulty with self-esteem, throwing Frost out of the forest even though he could still hunt, and tossing Thunder into the path of a fox. In The First Battle, he attacks Falling Feather and demotes her for questioning his authority, goes back on Thunder's word to keep Jackdaw's Cry safe and fed, and lies to Thunder and Lightning Tail about where Turtle Tail went to.

Thunder Rising has Thunder meeting his deceased mother Storm in a dream. The First Battle and The Blazing Star have Gray Wing seeing Stoneteller again in a dream. A Forest Divided has Clear Sky seeing his deceased sister, Fluttering Bird. In Path of Stars, Gray Wing is visited in a dream by Turtle Tail.

Killed Offscreen: In The Sun Trail, two of Storm's kits die offscreen before Gray Wing can get to them. In Thunder Rising, Moon Shadow succumbs to his wounds and dies offscreen. However, the scene where he gets those wounds, and his funeral, are both onscreen events. In The First Battle, Turtle Tail is hit by a car and dies offscreen. Thunder and Lightning Tail find her dead body sometime later. Also in The First Battle, Wind Runner's son Emberkit dies offscreen. At the end of The First Battle, after the battle ends, Lightning Tail and Acorn Fur find Hawk Swoop dead.

Sibling Team: Gray Wing and Clear Sky are brothers who work together to hunt and fight. Later on in The Sun Trail, this stops, as they become enemies. Fox and Petal are a brother and sister team who only rely on themselves. Nightheart and her brother work as a team, despite many cats in their territory preferring to work alone. Thunder and Lightning Tail work together as a team from The First Battle onwards, with Thunder eventually deciding that Lightning Tail will lead his group if he dies. However, they're not a blood sibling team, as Thunder is Lightning Tail's adoptive brother.

Late-Arrival Spoiler: The existence of Lion's Roar and Half Moon being the first Stoneteller are big twists in Sign of the Moon. The prologue of The Sun Trail casually reveals them to the reader, and if you haven't read Power of Three and Omen of the Stars, you probably wouldn't even realize they were spoilers.

The Leader: There are plenty of leaders and future leaders in The Sun Trail. Half Moon/Stoneteller from Power of Three and Omen of the Stars still leads the Tribe. Shaded Moss is named the leader of the crew setting out to find a new home. After his death, Tall Shadow leads it. The forest group in The Sun Trail is led by Clear Sky. Thunder, Wind, Gorse, Tall Shadow, Clear Sky, River Ripple, Owl Eyes, and possibly Dust Muzzle will go on to be Clan leaders. As of Thunder Rising, Gray Wing has become joint leader of proto-WindClan alongside Tall Shadow.

 Warrior Cats: Dawn of the Clans / int_66d13ab9
comment
Talking in Your Dreams: The prologue of Thunder Rising is about Thunder being visited in a dream by the spirit of Storm, his mother. Also in Thunder Rising, Gray Wing is visited by Stoneteller, who tells him that it may be his destiny to lead proto-WindClan. Gray Wing has another dream about the Tribe in the prologue of The First Battle.

We Hardly Knew Ye: Several characters in The Sun Trail die after having very minor roles, those being Fluttering Bird, Petal's brother Fox, and two of Storm's kits. Although in the case of Fox, it's slightly fixed in that he appears in the Bonus Scene and we learn more about him, but only after his death.

Mentor Occupational Hazard: In The Sun Trail, Shaded Moss, leader of and mentor to the other Followers of the Sun Trail dies shortly before they reach their new home. Subverted in the Bonus Scene of Thunder Rising. It looks like Arc is going to die, since we never heard anything about him in the main story, but it turns out that River Ripple just gets separated from him.

Character-Magnetic Team: The Forest Group continually attracts new characters. During The Sun Trail, in addition to the founding members, Leaf, Petal, Fox, Frost, and Storm join it. In Thunder Rising, it also gains new members in the form of Nettle, Fircone, Alder, Birch, and Thunder. Of course, it loses members just as quickly, since when their leader Clear Sky isn't alienating members, he's kicking them out. The Moor Group as well, but to a far lesser extent. Wind, Gorse, and Thunder join up with it, and new kits are frequently born.

Saved by Canon: Because Moth Flight's Vision (which involves the origin of medicine cats and the leaders getting their nine lives) takes place after Dawn of the Clans, it's safe to assume that all the original medicine cats (Moth Flight, Pebble Heart, Dappled Pelt, and Cloud Spots), leaders (Wind Runner, Tall Shadow, Thunder, Clear Sky, and River Ripple), and deputies (Lightning Tail and Gorse Fur) survive Dawn of the Clans.

The Big Bad Shuffle
 Warrior Cats: Dawn of the Clans / int_77eeb348
comment
The Big Bad Shuffle: Very much. At the end of The Sun Trail, it looks like the antagonist will be Clear Sky, who has become a fallen hero. Then, in The First Battle, Clear Sky realizes the error of his ways and promises to change. Meanwhile, two new characters show up who could potentially be the main villain, Tom and Snake. Following this, in The Blazing Star, Tom is killed by a new character called One Eye, who becomes the main villain. But then Thunder manages to kill One Eye at the end of the book, and it appears that Snake may become the big bad after all. Then in A Forest Divided, a completely new character called Slash shows up and seems to be the main villain, but it's hinted that Star Flower may be the true villain, with Slash actually being her lackey. But then in Path of Stars, it turns out that Star Flower is good and Slash really is the final boss. As well, Snake returns, but he takes the role of Slash's lackey. As well, all throughout the series, the characters face the threat of foxes, but they don't actually end up playing a major role, despite foreshadowing for it.

The Bonus Scenes of The First Battle and A Forest Divided are downplayed versions, as they reveal, to a lesser extent, how Wind met Gorse, and how Slate joined their group.

First-Episode Twist
 Warrior Cats: Dawn of the Clans / int_83fb6177
comment
First-Episode Twist: Bright Stream's death happens early on in The Sun Trail, but is a pretty big twist and defines much of the book. Also, one of the largest spoilers for The Sun Trail is that Clear Sky is the antagonist, but that will be one for the series as a whole, almost certainly. Additionally, the big twist of the book, Storm and Clear Sky's son being Thunder, is something so important to the later books that you can't discuss them without mentioning it.

The bonus scene in The Blazing Star, it starts by introducing us to a new character called Sun Shadow, all fine and dandy, then Stoneteller dies, and he leaves, and Quiet Rain of all people reveals she's coming with him.

comment
A Day in the Limelight: WindClan is featured for the first time in a main series book from Gray Wing's point of view, although WindClan isn't formally named until Gray Wing's death. The Bonus Scenes provide this, giving a minor character in the books some time in the spotlight. In The Sun Trail, Petal is the one getting some love. In Thunder Rising, River Ripple is star. In The First Battle, Wind Runner gets into the spotlight. Sun Shadow (Moon Shadow's son) gets a POV in The Blazing Star, and Slate (Gray Wing's new love interest) gets hers in A Forest Divided. Tall Shadow was intended to get a chapter in A Forest Divided. However, it ended up being reworked into a Thunder chapter.

Ascended Extra: The Clan Founders, minor characters who appeared briefly in Long Shadows and were mentioned in the lore, have become major characters in this series. Thunder and Clear Sky even become point of view characters, while Wind Runner and River Ripple have Bonus Scenes that star them and reveal their backstories. The original medicine cats (Cloudspots, Dapplepelt, Pebbleheart, and Mothflight) were all minor characters mentioned in Secrets of the Clans. Here, they are important supporting characters, and Mothflight even gets her own Super Edition. Lightning Tail, mentioned all of once in Secrets of the Clans, appears as a supporting character in Thunder Rising, before becoming a major character in The First Battle.

Finally, Turtle Tail decides to leave the group for a bit, and returns pregnant with another tom's kits. It's after the kits are born that Gray Wing finally realizes his feelings for her and they officially become mates, and everyone else congratulates him on finally noticing that they're perfect for each other.

No Name Given: As they approach Highstones, the Followers of the Sun Trail meet a long-legged brown and gray tabby tom. He talks with them for a bit, but never gives his name. At the end of The Sun Trail, Storm has three kits. She named them, but we never learn their names. This is used as a plot point. Since Gray Wing doesn't have a name to call the survivor, and he doesn't remember it, Turtle Tail names him Thunder. Nightheart's brother is mentioned in Thunder Rising, but not named. His name is later revealed in Riverstar's Home, part of which takes place chronologically around the same time as this series. In The First Battle, Wind Runner has four kits. However, of her three sons only one of them has their name revealed (Emberkit), and her daughter's name (Moth Flight) is only known because of The Ultimate Guide. Later books reveal the names of the other kits, including Moth Flight, and that she had two sons and two daughters instead of three sons and one daughter.

Unexpected Character: Most fans correctly predicted the appearances of Thunder, Shadow (as Tall Shadow), Clear Sky, Wind, Gorsestar (as Gorse), Cloudspots (as Cloud Spots), and Dapplepelt (as Dappled Pelt) in The Sun Trail. However, virtually nobody suspected that The Sun Trail would feature Graywing the Wise from Battles of the Clans, and if they did they probably didn't think he would be the main character. As well, Half Moon/Stoneteller and Lion's Roar were pretty unexpected.

Expy: Several characters are rather obvious shout outs to characters from the earlier books. Bright Stream for Spottedleaf. She is made of purity, is Clear Sky's love interest, and tragically dies in the first book. Jagged Peak for Cinderpelt. Energetic apprentice to the main character who ends up with a broken leg? Yep, that's him. Tall Shadow's intelligence, appearance, and cunning make her seem a lot like Hollyleaf. Moon Shadow is a mix between Berrynose (because of his arrogance and hot blooded nature) and Crowfeather (because of his behaviour towards she-cats). It's as awesome as it sounds. Gorse is fairly similar to Graystripe, with his love of food and adorableness.

Meaningful Rename: In Thunder Rising, to show their connection to the Followers of the Sun Trail, Wind and Gorse change their names to Wind Runner and Gorse Fur. In the Bonus Scene of Thunder Rising, it's revealed that River Ripple's name was once Ripple, but he changed it to show how he had become a Cat of the River.

Cartwright Curse: Spoilers up to The Blazing Star. Gray Wing and Clear Sky both experience this. Clear Sky loses his two mates, Bright Stream and Storm, while all three she-cats Gray Wing has feelings for (the aforementioned two and Turtle Tail) die. Then, Petal, who had subtext with Clear Sky, dies as well. However, by the end of Path of Stars, Gray Wing and Clear Sky both have new mates and have kits with them, finally breaking the curse. Gray Wing dies almost immediately though, so he doesn't get to enjoy it.

Last Episode, New Character: We don't meet Thunder until the last chapter of The Sun Trail, but oh boy is he important to the book. Fircone and Nettle aren't introduced until the last chapter of Thunder Rising. However, they're important due to convincing Thunder to confront Clear Sky.

Never Found the Body: In The Sun Trail, the Followers of the Sun Trail don't find Bright Stream's body after she is carried off by an eagle, leading to some potential ambiguity over her death. However, at the end of The First Battle, Bright Stream appears as a ghost, confirming her death.
