I think Skyclan is a really interesting concept, a clan that got kicked out and had to be rebuilt. When I read Firestar's quest I was really excited, but the Erins added a lot of stuff that bothered me. First of all, daylight warriors, just, ugh. Why do they get to stay with their owners and keep most of their names, but everyone else doesn't? And it felt really forced in, you could totally tell they were added in last minute. And now it's falling apart again, so i'm just sort of thinking, are they mean to be here? They don't have a tree, and they sort of took up land that could've been part of Thunderclan, so it seems like maybe Starclan got rid of them for a reason. I don't know though.

I was kind of thinking the same thing... I feel like they were kind of added in the last minute… And I feel like they should have been with the original Clans from the start, in order to make their inclusion seem more natural (otherwise, they just seem out of nowhere)… Not to mention after being kicked out twice, they seem very weak, which contradicts their earlier status.
Overall, a good idea with good characters, but executed poorly. It might get while the fifth series continues though…

I feel like Erins just needed something to make the Clans more exciting. To make something else dramatic happen.

❈ -- I honestly have no preference for them, although I have to agree with the names. Bellaleaf? Rileypool? Harrybrook? Seriously. I think Leafstar's being a bit too soft. No wonder they were driven out, the daylight warriors are there, and the names.

I mean, really, that makes you sound like a kittypet-warrior which is not even respectable.

Some of the names in the Clans were pretty bad too though (Whorlpaw, Mistmouse, Sneezecloud)... And Harrybrook at least makes sense with the story because she named him after a cat named Harry... I am surprised that Bellaleaf and Rileypool didn't take more natural sounding prefixes though (Bell and Rye would have made more sense).
The concept of daylight warriors is strange, but they are constantly in need of warriors because they are alone and smaller than other Clans... Plus, I doubt all those cats would've been willing to help them if they were not allowed to live in both worlds... This is practically proven by Hawkwing's Journey, when very few of the former daylight warriors join their Clanmates...

I find the name Whorl an intresting name because we dont know if they mean Whorl as in the plant or Whorl as in the pattern.

Honestly, I don't wish SkyClan never existed... It's a very interesting concept. I just think Leafstar should have been a bit more onto the warrior name thing...

SkyClan WAS last second added. I know that because Firestar's quest only comes out right after the second series.

I like SkyClan because they're so diffeent and the idea of rebuilding a long lost Clan was neat. I enjoyed FQ's premises and Leafstar's struggles in SD to set up a Clan whilst adapting to their own unique situation.
It does bother me though that SkyClan's existence changed that meaningful line in the OS : "There have always been five Clans in the Forest." It was a nice symbolism for how StarClan was with them. I don't like how they changed its meaning to "Oh yeah, no, we meant there was another Can here but they got kicked out!" (which would have been a weird thing to say in the midst of battle...)

XD True...
It REALLY bothers me that my ULTIMATE FAVORITE CHARACTER died in the first chapter of Hawkwing's journey... :C. I never got to know him, but from what I read I liked.

For me it's the other way around. I really like their funny names. Always thought they have more different names since they were kittipets and loners and know more words. Like Snip.
But I really dislike the Clan itself. It looks weak and unable to take care of itself. And I don't like that they were driven apart again. Why reunite them when they are to weak to defend the Clan. Wish there would be an other reason for them to go to the lake, not just random strays, with no warrior skills, that are better fighters.

From what I've read of Skyclan based on Skyclan's Destiny they seem interesting enough. Actually, I find the idea of the Daylight Warriors to make a little bit of sense when Skyclan required them around.

When you were made a warrior, you decided to stay or leave as a final decision. It would've made much more sense.

When you were made a warrior, you decided to stay or leave as a final decision. It would've made much more sense. Agreed, that also might have led to some interesting character development if a Daylight Warrior needed to choose between helping the Clan out permanently once they were made a warrior, but sacrifice being with their owners or give up being in the clan and resolve to remain a kittypet with either decision having their own pros and cons. Plus this might have opened up a dynamic where some Daylight Warriors chose to remain loyal to the clan, some chose to be loyal to their owners and tended to disagree on which choice was right or not.
Granted, I have not read anything related to Skyclan other than Skyclan's Destiny (and up to A Forest Divided), so I'm not too sure if this concept was explored in later books.

Doesn't the warrior code have a rule that Kitty pet life must be rejected? And during the warrior ceremony, it says "Do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend this clan, even at the cost of your life". Skyclan just seems to be breaking the code constantly.

skyclan wasn't present for the rejecting the soft life of a kittypet rule; that was established after pinestar. Modern Sky clan was taught the code by Firestar.

Modern Sky clan was taught the code by Firestar. they moulded it somewhat to fit their own needs? while they mightve phased it out eventually they needed numbers; skyclan was still young and it worked well enough gor them. people only ever rag on leafstar and skyclan because the names are'stupid'.

They needed another reason to make Thunderclan seem more awesome and angelic (by them helping these fools), Starclan seem less truthworthy, and just to have a more interesting history so they did it.

Ya, I agree with you. At first i was like "Cool new clan" and didn't care about them, but then they just did all this stuff to them and i was like "ugh".
