Personality
Cragstar is well known to be level-headed and kind. For these reasons, as well as his strength and loyalty, he was chosen to be deputy.

History
Cragkit was in born TarnClan to Minkflower alongside his brothers, Crowkit and Cougarkit under the leadership of Eaglestar. His father is Redwater, however, Redwater stayed in MireClan. His kithood was relatively normal but he was often plagued with nightmares.

After 6 moons, he was given to Boarstripe as an apprentice. Cragpaw quickly took to the water and although he didn't enjoy it, became one of the best apprentices at fighting. Boarstripe planned for him to become a tunneler due to his large paws and during his last lesson in the caverns, there was a cave-in. His mentor was killed in the accident and Cragpaw injured, his front right paw getting crushed. Despite this, the apprentice pulled Boarstripe out of the rubble. When he realized that his mother hadn't come from the tunnels as well, he went back in, much to the protest of his clanmates. Cragpaw was able to pull Minkflower back out, but it was too late for her as well. During his recovery, he became quick friends with Shymouse, the medicine cat at that time.

Once his paw had healed, Eaglestar made him into a warrior with his new name being Cragstep, a callback to his paw and long stride. After a few moons of him being a warrior, he is given Snowpaw as an apprentice, who happened to be the son of his late mentor.

When Lichenthroat's group invaded TarnClan, he quickly took to the defensive. He defended the camp well, even earning the scar across his face. Once Lichenthroat's group had been defeated, he tried to help Rowanmeadow with the medicine as Shymouse had been slain during the fray. When Tatteredfin, the deputy at that time, passed away due to his injuries, Eaglestar announced that Cragstep would be the next deputy.

Only a few moons after he became deputy, Snowpaw became a warrior by the name of Snowjaw. Around the same time, Eaglestar began to act strange. She constantly had headaches and soon lost coordination to the point she was bedridden. She soon passed away, leaving Cragstep to become leader. He earns his leader name and gains the light diamond-shaped patch of fur on his chest as his leader mark.
