Meet Burdockpelt and Dappleseed!

Burdockpelt was Lynxpaw’s father and Duskclan’s lead cleric, he offered to try to sire for Willowtail one last time after seeing how her fertility issues were affecting her. He also delivered the prophecy about Wolfstar, his last prophecy before death. Fun fact, he’s not clan born, he was a loner who dreamed of starry cats and followed them to Duskclan when he was on 8 moons old. From there he served under the previous leader, Dogstar and mentored several clerics, all of whom died before him, except for Darkfold. He died in the fire caused by Burnpaw attempting to recreate what he saw the camp keepers do, trying to keep it from spreading. Though he should’ve been fit enough to escape the flames, but, according to Burnpaw, he didn’t even try to run. He stayed still as the fire surrounded him. He was wise, shameless, and a prophecy interpreter. He was 93 moons at the time of his death.

Dappleshade was Darkfold’s half-sister and Duskclan’s cleric, they share the same mother. She was mentored by Burdockpelt and had a fairly quiet life as a cleric. She served under Dogstar for the last few seasons of his leadership, but spent most of her life as Jaggedstar’s cleric. She unfortunately passed away from a yellow cough outbreak a few moons before Burdockpelt’s death and Darkfold got her full name. She was close with her half sister and her death caused Darkfold to become cold and distant. She was 48 moons when she died. She was confident, patient, and cared for nature.
