"What? Has even StarClan given up on us? I remember when Cloudstar led us away from the forest. He said we should never look to the spirits of our warrior ancestors again, and he was right. We should never have listened to StarClan. They have done nothing for us!" |
— Oakstep doubting StarClan in SkyClan's Destiny, page 8 |
Oakstep is a gray tabby tom.[7]
Oakstep was an ancient SkyClan elder. As an apprentice, Oakpaw was mentored by Mousefang and Nightfur and served under Cloudstar's leadership in the forest territories. After SkyClan's exile, Oakstep served as an elder under Spiderstar's leadership in the gorge. He was shocked when Fallensnow and Sunpelt died after the final battle against the rats, and came to the conclusion that StarClan had given up on SkyClan. He stayed behind in the gorge after the Clan disbanded with a few other cats, and later died and went to StarClan.
