Emotional Details
Shadow can be very outgoing, understanding, trustworthy, wise and protective on her good side, Shadow Is not like many cats, she tends to goof off like a kit, be serious about her job, and just switch personality's in an instant. She can be moody without her afternoon sleep and takes her role as leader seriously. She can tell if a cat is lying or telling the truth by looking into their eyes, it may be hard, but she manages. In battle, this tiny little ball of fluff can be quiet feisty. cause shes so small, she is very fast, has a lot of agility, and is extremely clever, so in a battle, pray you don't have to go up against her. Shadow did have disadvantages,such as a very rude attitude, a lack of trust in others and serious anger issues. Her anger issues blurred her vision from decisions and her self centered thinking was one downfall she had when it came to choices in battle. Despite that, she was a very loved cat. Shadow was also deathly afraid of large bodies of water.

Shadows History
Shadows Beginning
Shadow lead a very significant life, and to this day remains a very important part of the clans. She started out her life in the caves that were once found under Thunderclan territory, caves she would later fill in. She was born to a run away medicine cat who called herself nothing more than 'Clear'. Shadow had two sisters and a brother. The fate of her sisters remained completely unknown, while later her brother was found to be a live. After the predicted murder of her family, Shadow escaped to the world above, being taught the basics of the world by two kittypets. Shadow was still very young upon their disappearance, which she later discovered was due to their owners moving.
Shadows days as a Clan cat
Shadow moved to find herself in the Shadowclan area, where a young tom by the name of Grainclaw found her, and they had a very quick fling. Shadow considered joining Shadowclan to be with him up until she ran into Thunderclan cats. She met Mosspaw, and a tom known as Hurricanestorm. Through a long conversation about Shadows origins, Hurricane discovered she was his child, having lost his mate due to her being chased out by her own clan. Shadow quickly joined Thunderclan, learning more about her fathers side of the family. She was mentored by Sapphireflame, who later went on to become Shadows step mother, by becoming mates with Hurricanestorm. Even though she was now an accepted Thunderclan cat, she did not stop her meetings with Grainclaw until she became pregnant. When she discovered this, she cut connections with him almost instantly. Shadow was able to hide her pregnancy well, and immediately handed the kits off to Grainclaw upon their birth. She personally never knew the kits fate, but of the three only one survived to adulthood. As she trained and learned the ways of the clans, she began to gain an interest in herbs, offering assistance when the medicine cats needed her. Once she earned her full name, she mated to Thrushflight and had their first litter. Prior, she had been pregnant, however she was hit by a car and the shock killed the litter, as well as imprinted three large scars on her side. Shadows interest in medicine was pushed to the point where she became the Medicine Cat apprentice, basically stealing the position due to her prior knowledge as an 'assistant medicine cat.' However, as much as she loved the position Starclan had told her she had another path she had to follow that was not with the Medicine Cats. Shadow backed down, allowing the former Medicine Cat apprentice to take their rightful place. It caused tension between her and the medicine cats. Around this time, Shadow had mated to Thunderstrike, who many believe to be her true love. She gave him one litter, while baring a second litter to Thrush before Thunders litter. Around this time, cats began relying on shadow to heal them and care for them while they were ill. This enraged the Medicine cats to the point where they threatened the little queen. Shadow defended herself, and with it caused one medicine cat to step down from their position. Shadow was always defensive about her skills, and afterwards cut the treatment she gave her clan mates, only helping if it was a queen situation. Once shadow was out of being a queen, she mentored Lynxfire, who was considered one of the greatest warriors Thunderclan ever had. She was shadows proudest accomplishment, and it showed in her whenever she gazed at the fire warrior. Shadow once got attacked and carried off by a hawk, however the young cat used her speed to get away, having been rather badly beaten too by it. Around her early adulthood, natural disasters were becoming more and more common, one of which involved lightning, which struck a tree just outside of camp. It came crashing down onto Thunderstrike, killing him instantly. Grief struck Shadow, and she found comfort with Thrushflight, so she mated once more to him. Another disaster hit involving water, which caused the entire camp to flood. Froststar, the leader at the time, directer Shadow and the deputy to move out to Riverclan. Upon their arrival, the deputy had fallen Ill and passed away. Shadow found herself joining several patrols to find more food, including prey in Thunderclan territory. They spent half a moon at Riverclan, sending scouts daily to see if the camp had been free of water yet. The day it was found that the Thunderclan camp was clear, Froststar declared his love for a Riverclan cat, stating he wished to stay in Riverclan with her. Much of the clan felt shame upon the leaders confession, However Shadow and Featherhope pushed it aside, and the two of them together lead Thunderclan back home. their first orders to the clan were to clean up the camp and rebuild it since the flood had caused major destruction.
Shadowstar
As the camp, and clan life, went back to normal, Shadow and Featherhope had to decide on who would lead. Before stepping down, Froststar never named another deputy, so he had no planned successor. The title was tossed back between them, before Starclan sent a sign choosing Shadow. Instantly the little cat moved to claim her name and nine lives, all by the time she was 74 moons old. She was still rather young, and took her job seriously. She appointed Dreampool as her deputy, then directed Lynxfire after Dreampools sudden disappearance. All the while, A hidden issue was slowly beginning to rise within the clan. Shadow became pregnant once more, bearing Thrush a third litter. Around this time, A young warrior named Pantherstrike had begun to murder cats within the clan, and was able to successfully frame Lynxfire. Shadow banished Lynxfire on those false accusations, and it allowed for Panther to gain more power. With lynx gone, Panther attacked the clan with others who supported her It ended up costing Shadow several clan mates and a life. After the attack, she welcomed Lynxfire home with a deep apology, one she never felt was enough for the Fire warrior. Moons later, The Medicine cat of the clan had died, leaving Thunderclan without a proper Medicine cat. At the time, Shadow was mated to a cat named Tigervenom, who vanished only after two moons. With a guiding paw from Starclan, Shadow mentored the next Medicine Cat, making her the first ever to lead a clan and be the medicine cat at the same time. She stepped down and began to train Icefeather, Midnightslash and Sunnypaw as her apprentices over the course of several moons. She had one litter in that time, which belonged to Damtail, however because she was leader and a mentor, she did not stay as a queen to raise her kits. But no matter how busy Shadow was, she always found a way to pay attention to every kit she had, and every kit she adopted. Shortly after breaking it off with Damtail, she was mated to Willowclaw briefly before his death. Panthers Gang began attacking more frequently, killing cats and stealing kits. Shadow was soon forced to turn to the other clans for help, however only Windclan helped at the beginning. Eventually all clans were affected and gave help. Shadow lost several lives to the gang, and an additional life to black cough. Her final litter was born during a peaceful time, and before another great storm hit Thunderclan. Being an older cat, Shadow began to slowly wither away, finding herself to become weaker as the days went on. During the flood, the rocks that once made up her den collapsed, ripping a hole in the ground and sucking her under. Shadow lost a life from her tumble to the underground caves, which she ordered to all be filled shortly after she became leader. The molly was lost for almost a moon, only finding her way back thanks to the guiding paws of Loners. She had been washed down an underground river, way beyond where the clans resigned. It took her five days to walk back home. Shadow was down to two lives, with the clan thinking she had four left.
Her Final Days
Before retiring, Shadow announced Dogclaw would be deputy, a choice that did not settle well within her clan, as well as herself. When she stepped down due to age, and weakness in her joints, he took over as Dogstar. Shadow decided her days would be best served out as a Medicine cat, so she became the assistant once more, finding joy in collecting herbs. Shadow died in the paws of her adopted brother, Couragesky, who was destined to lead the clan well after her years. She had no pain, and she made sure before she died that the clan understood love, and every aspect of it. She was welcomed to Starclan by her father. She died at the astonishing age of 187 moons due to stomach cancer.
Life in Starclan
While Shadow is now a cluster of stars, she is still one of the most important cats to have ever existed. Shortly after her death, her importance to the clans sky rocketed. She became an iconic figure in not only Thunderclan, but every clan around the lake. She became the message deliverer, Medicine cat mentor, and the whisper Leaders hear to determine the fate of their clan. Shadow to this day remains a nursery tale, confirming she will be staying in Starclan for a very long time. Because of her service and importance, many acknowledge her as one of the leaders of Starclan itself. Of course it is only a made up name, considering no one can LEAD Starclan. However, her face is one that always comes to mind when Starclan is spoken of. In addition, those lost in Starclan themselves find Shadow, because she can comfort them, and guide them. She is, the mother of the clans.
Because of popular vote and obsession, Shadow was granted the power to walk among the living, however she will only ever use this power for medicine cats and leaders.

The Journey
When fires devastated the clans and starclan, Shadows spirit was thrown in for a spiral. Starclan was confused and scared so they ran off, feeling abandoned by the clans who felt they were to blame for the fires. Shadow stayed behind and attempted to warn Glenspark of what the clans were doing to starclan and how they too were harmed by the fire. Sadly, the discussion had a severe miscommunication (mostly on Shadows part) that left both cats irritated at one another, and the long friendship came to a close. Not long after, starclan collapsed and Shadow was sent to the world of the living. Due to her spirit not being 100% starclan, she was completely left behind to walk with the clans.
