Warrior Cats/Characters/Tribe of Rushing Water

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


The Tribe of Rushing Water are a group of cats living in the mountains in Warrior Cats. They have ways different than the clans, which causes tension when the two groups meet in The New Prophecy and later books.

General Tribe Tropes

  • Name That Unfolds Like Lotus Blossom:[1]The cats are supposedly named for what their mother first sees after birth, giving you names like "Brook where Small Fish Swim" and "Talon of Swooping Eagle"
  • Planet of Steves: Every tribe healer is named Teller of Pointed Stones. While there can only be one alive at one time, this could cause confusion once they are all dead together, so Stonetellers keep their original names once they join the Tribe of Endless Hunting (as confirmed by Word of God and The Last Hope)

Teller of the Pointed Stones (Stoneteller)

The leader of the Tribe Of Rushing Water.


Stormfur

Graystripe's son, and Feathertail's brother. Originally from RiverClan, he accompanies his sister Feathertail on her journey to Midnight, despite not being chosen by StarClan. He ends up falling in love with Brook, a hunter from the Tribe of Rushing Water, and stays behind with the mountain cats rather than continue on to the lake territory with the Clans. After being exiled from the Tribe, he and Brook join ThunderClan, but later return to the mountains.


Brook Where Small Fish Swim (Brook)

Stormfur's mate, Brook met Stormfur and his companions in Moonrise, when Stormfur is believed to be The Chosen One of a prophecy seen by Stoneteller given by The Tribe of Endless Hunting (the Tribe's StarClan). She is the first to befriend the six and quickly falls for Stormfur which causes her to be exiled with Stormfur at one point and go to ThunderClan for refuge. They return to the mountains. Her brothers are Talon of Swooping Eagle and the current Stoneteller.


Half Moon/Teller of the Pointed Stones

A she-cat Jayfeather meets in the past who is a member of the Ancients, cats who would become the Tribe. He was in love with his lookalike Jay's Wing, who was actually his previous incarnation. Half Moon is kind and intelligent, as well as the first Stoneteller.
