We all know he's treated like some unwanted nerd in The Dark Forest, and that he's a weak fighter, but he seemed to have been pretty respected (for the most part) in ThunderClan, before his true colors were revealed.
For instance, he out of all the other apprenticeless warriors, was chosen to mentor Dustpelt, just two moons after he finished Longtail's training.
I know it was only between like three other cats (wow, ThunderClan used to have SO little cats) but still.
So, do you think he was respected in ThunderClan?

Gee, that's a tough one... Obviously not Look dude, if you think my post is dumb, why bother posting on it at all? It's just a waste of both of our times. Did you even READ the post, or did you just read the title, and decide to post another one of your infamous snarky comments?

I don't remember him being respected by his clan. Maybe they respected him a little. At least before the great and powerful Tigerstar got exposed in Forest of Secrets. Just because Firestar never liked him doesn't mean everyone else felt the same. He was just a normal warrior to them, so they treated him like everyone else.

I think he was about average, if not slightly higher as he was a senior warrior, and close allies with one of the most experienced warriors in TC.

Yeah, true, it's hard to know what any of the other clanmates truly thought of him, since it was in Firestar's POV, and Darkstripe was Tigerclaw's best friend, so he was already a bad guy by default. However, before all of this, Tigerclaw was one of the most respected cats in ThunderClan, wasn't he? So I think those he kept close to him, would also be respected, especially his own apprentice. However, Ravenpaw was also his apprentice, and he wasn't respected by anyone...but Darkstripe and Ravenpaw are COMPLETETLY different characters, so it's hard to say.

I don't think he's super respected. He always gives off this air of any clout he had being gained from being in Tigerstar's, who WAS respected, circle.
The cats I think that were highly respected of that time were definitely Lionheart, Whitestorm, and Tigerclaw/star. They stood out of cats others likely looked up too (and likely Redtail, but he died, sooo).

I'm still surprised at how few warriors there were at the time, I think there was almost as many queens, as there was warriors lol. I know the numbers aren't equal, but it's def A LOT closer than it is now

Pretty sure he was akin to an average scrub at best in the clan but not really really respected, enough that he'd be a mentor but that's it.

Not in personality, but the fact that they're top picks for mentors, but not someone you look at, and go like, "That cat is one of ThunderClan's best warriors!" Or something like that lol. No hate on Rosepetal, she's just the first character I thought of, that has had quite a few apprentices.

I feel like Rosepetal is usually loyal and kind to her clanmates and is probably well liked/respected, though I may be biased (I really like her)

I think he had the common respect of all warriors, but not held to a higher degree the way we see cats like Lionheart, Whitestorm or Tigerclaw held to. He was an average warrior with probably a reputation of being one of Tigerclaw's closest allies to give him a tiny boost. He was also a lackluster villain, not really doing anything terrible in his own ambitions or regards which lowered his standing in the dark forest.

Darkstripe built his identity around being Tigerclaw's echo, primarily by hating on Fireheart/kittypets. He was respected amongst his clan when the majority of them shared this sentiment. However, when the clan's consensus shifted in Fireheart's favor to the point where even Longtail and Dustpelt (begrudgingly) respected Fireheart, the clan started to see him for the loser that he was and he became an outcast.

I think it might've been better when he was younger as being Tigerstar's friend, the cool kid would be a big deal. But as he got older, I think it just wasn't going to cut it as he would've been held to a higher standard. Tigerstar's exile definitely didn't help either.

I think the Clan only tolerated him because he followed around Tigerstar. I think I vaguely remember some cats in the Clan giving eye rolls sometimes.

I wonder if everyone else thought he was a brown noser I couldn't forget about my OC name haha. I was worried someone might take it. 😅 I think he was a brown noser. Poor thing had such a low self esteem he wanted to try and make some cat feel worse than he did. At least that's the way I saw him.

Yeah, I honestly pitied him more than disliked him, it's obvious the poor thing had some problems. Maybe Tawnyspots was his father, and he died when Darkstripe was just a kit, or something, and his mother wasn't around, and it caused him to latch onto the first cat who was able to give him any sort of attention (Tigerclaw) and Tigerclaw was like a second father to him. Idk, I could just be grasping at straws, and Darkstripe is just a regular lackey with nothing to him other than being a lackey, but I REALLY want to know more about his history.

Not exactly sure about Darkstripe...did he ever really ask for anything? Or did he just do things in the name of his lord and savior Tigerclaw

I think he just kissed up to Tigerclaw instead of asking for things. He did offer Darkstripe a spot in ShadowClan before being outcast from TC. He didn't take it in the beginning but went later. Darkstripe is just...an obnoxious coward.

XD I don't think he's a coward, he was always the first to jump into action when it came to Tigerclaw, not caring what happened to him. That's just the way I see it though. Idk how to describe him, obsessed?
