Whitestorm, a white tom with amber eyes, is a senior ThunderClan warrior in the Original series. He is one of the few cats who always treats Firestar with respect when he is first brought into ThunderClan, and often gives him advice when he senses Firestar is troubled. Whitestorm is a gallant fighter, but is always more reserved rather than bloodthirsty and carries a thoughtful demeanor.
Though he is the most experienced senior warrior in the Clan, Whitestorm does not harbor any ambition toward becoming Clan leader and as such offers his wisdom to younger cats entirely out of good will. He assists Fireheart with the burdens of being Clan deputy during Bluestar's depression, and takes over for him occasionally when Fireheart's duties call him elsewhere. Being Bluestar's nephew, as her sister Snowfur was his mother, Whitestorm is one of the warriors who are closest to her, and often stays by her side in order to comfort her and maintain her sanity when she succumbs into paranoia through the later books. Eventually Firestar appoints Whitestorm as his deputy in appreciation for all his advice, a promotion he is unexpectedly pleased about (a trait that Firestar admires, given the ambitions of previous cats he had encountered). Whitestorm is killed by Bone during the battle with BloodClan in The Darkest Hour, his last wish being that Firestar appoint Graystripe as his new deputy, which is granted.
Whitestorm has taken at least one mate over the course of the series: Willowpelt, and possibly Brindleface. With Willowpelt he fathered Sorreltail, Sootfur and Rainwhisker, while with Brindleface he possibly fathered Ashfur and Ferncloud. As such he is the grandfather of both Ferncloud and Sorreltail's kits, possibly including Larchkit, Hollykit, Icepaw, Foxpaw, Shrewpaw, Cinderheart, Molepaw, Honeyfern, Poppyfrost, Birchfall, and Spiderleg. He has mentored Sandstorm and Brightheart.
