HISTORY

INTO THE WILD
Listed as ThunderClan apprentice: Dustpaw

Dustpaw, as an apprentice in Into The Wild was stingy and snobby to Firepaw, and was the best friend and constant companion of Sandpaw, who matched him in attitude. He lost his mentor Redtail and Darkstripe was appointed in his stead [ITW2].

GENERAL
Later on Sandpaw grew fond of Firepaw, to which Dustpaw grew envious and ignored them both.

Later on Dustpelt fell in love with Ferncloud, and they became mates and had kits. They went through a hard time when the Clans were starving before The Great Journey and two of Ferncloud's kits died. But after settling in the new territory they are now happy again, Ferncloud's eldest kits Spiderleg and Birchfall are now warriors, and they once again have new kits: Foxkit and Icekit. Murmurs of Firestar's poor leadership are creeping through the camp though, and Mousefur and Dustpelt are leaders in standing against his word.
