Scarletstar

Scarletstar was an adult female Skyclan leader who was introduced in The Apprentice Prophecy. Despite being having fourteen deputies, she reigned as the SkyClan leader for approximately twenty-nine Moons until she was killed by Rubystar in a challenge.

Appearance
She was slightly bigger than Claypaw, but smaller than Kestrelfang and Dunesnap. She also had a deep, slithering voice.

After being severely injured by Glorypaw's venom, the other side of her shimmering orange facewas melted into a hideous dark mess that misshaped her snout and revealed a glimpse of her jawbone underneath. One eye was pulled down and out of proportion with the rest of her face. She was referred to as "Melty-Face" by a SkyClan kit.

During the time after her escape from Burnscar, Scarlet became thin and ragged but began adorning herself again once she briefly managed to regain the SkyClan throne.

Scarlet had a dark orange pelt and bright yellow eyes that were as sharp as talons.

Personality
Scarletstar was a violent, vain, and manipulative cat, with a love for bloodshed and a thirst for vengeance. She was sarcastic, melodramatic, sadistic, and hedonistic. Living in excess, Scarletstar took pleasure in adorning  her cave with gemstones and precious metals, and would grow petulantly upset when she did not get her way. She thought very highly of herself. She was not above lying and manipulation, and would go to great lengths to control cats around her to do her bidding, particularly Perilflame. She was a smooth liar, sly and cunning with her words, as well as ruthless and unbothered by killing or having cats killed, including her own daughters. She used fear of her violent wrath to prevent her subjects from doing things she disliked,and she rarely lost challenges to her authority. Chameleonnose also stated that she was usually very convincing. She rarely trusted other dragons, and Moonpaw described her mind as loud, angry, and all over the place.

Her self-indulgent need for 'thrilling' forms of entertainment meant that her violent arena, fed by the war, was very important to her. She wished to continue the war, heedless of its impact on her subjects, for her personal entertainment and to keep her throne secure. She also kept a close hold on Perilflame, her arena champion, who was encouraged to draw out battles for Scarletstar's entertainment.

After being scarred by Glorypaw's venom, she grew more bitter and vicious, plotting vengeance and violence against the Apprentices of destiny, Burnscar, and her successor, Rubystar. She was less confident and more willing to let other cats kill the Apprentices of destiny for her.
