Unlike most warrior sites, StarClan is ruled by four brothers and their Mother.

The four brother's mother was called Allmother. She came out of the darkness to the cold earth. The Allmother was black as the night sky she lived in.


The eldest was Whitewind; he was the color of sunlight on snow, and full of swiftness....

The middle child was Hearteater, as gray as shadows and full of strangeness....

Third-born was Firefoot. He was as black as the Allmother, but his paws were red like flame, he walked alone, and sang to himself.

There was rivalry among the Firstborn brothers. Whitewind was as fast and strong as a cat could dream of being -- none could overmatch him at jumping and running.
Firefoot was as clever as time; he solved all puzzles and riddles, and made songs that the Cat Folk sang for generations.
Hearteater could not match his brothers' exploits. He grew jealous, and began to plot the downfall of Whitewind and the humiliation of the Cat Folk. The three Clans are decendents of the three Firstborn Brothers.
