Kite wing! Originally known as Kite, she is a cat that joins the River camp before they are officially known as Riverclan in Riverstar's home, specifically because she wants a safe place to birth and raise her kits. Lucky for her she meets River Ripple and Shattered Ice as she's beginning labor, and they alongside Dappled Pelt help deliver the kits. She names her three kits Trout Fur, Willow Stream, and Snow tail, using the naming conventions of the mountain cats that had become common. She changes her name to Kite Wing sometime after the period that the cats from Slash's group are re-named, probably in a similar ceremony among the River cats. Her kits and Dawn Mist's kits are close, the latter only being a few moons older, and when the group confront Dawn and Moss for their withdrawn attitudes around the prey pile, Kite begins washing their kits Drizzle and Pine when the matter is resolved. All five and Spider Paw are apprenticed together, not with a ceremony but Night and River Ripple pick out mentors for each and when training they are often seen as a large group.
