Tribe Description
Most cats in the tribe have blue-gray fur, as they are known as the "Tribe That Worships Ice", in which it is true of them. The tribe's healer spots are inherited, like royal lineages, in which the healers usually have dark blue fur due to the gene being passed down in the healer "royal family". The tribe was founded by Iceshadow, a ThunderClan warrior, who ran off during their war between the ShadowClan for territory after being badly injured by enemy warrior Flamespark, with his sister Doveflight and brother Fishcatcher, in which they formed a tribe to accomplish their goal: make sure the Clans get along together, as well as the tribes. All three had blue fur, but each different shades. Iceshadow had dark blue, Doveflight had light blue, and Fishcatcher had normal blue, in which the Clan leader at the time, Wolfstar, their father, had a genetic mutation causing his genes to appear blue instead of blue-gray, in which when he breeded with their mother, Lightningthroat, who had light gray fur, their fur colors combined. Descendants of these cats have their same fur colors, or maybe they might have it blended with another color. This was hundreds to thousands of moons ago, and yet their gene still carries on. Other cats who are not part of the lineage often have white or light gray fur.

Cat species usually do not matter to the tribe, as everyone is treated like normal cats, but the healer family species of cats is birman. Most of the tribe cats are also birman cats, but there are other species as well such as Persian cats and Ragdoll cats. However, most of the noble and highly respected cats that are mostly cave-guards are bengal cats, in which they are favored for their spots.

The three cats who founded the tribe then took on tribe names. Iceshadow took on the name Blackened Ice, Doveflight took on the name Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree, and Fishcatcher took on the name Fish Swimming In The Ice Cold River.

Their fur style is often straight, as they live in the cold 24/7, and in extreme cold weather conditions, their fur gets straightened by the wind.

Healer Lineage
The healer lineage is composed of cats who carry the genetics of Blackened Ice and his siblings and are descendants of ancient ThunderClan leader Wolfstar, who was said to do great things for his Clan until he died fighting ShadowClan for territory. Wolfstar was not a fan of the ice that much, but his mate Lightningthroat was, even though she was not named after ice.

Descendants of Blackened Ice are often the leaders, as Blackened Ice was the oldest of his siblings and the first healer, so all his descendants are the healers. However, the current healer must die in order for the next one to take place. If there are multiple heirs, then the oldest and firstborn one is chosen to take the lead. Descendants of Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree are often second in command, as she was the middle sibling, while Fish Swimming In The Ice Cold River's descendants are an assistant to both the healer and second in command, as Fish Swimming In The Ice Cold River was the youngest.

The whole lineage usually has ice-related names.

Tribe Symbolism
The tribe symbol is a snow leopard. Tribes do not usually have a symbol to them, but the Tribe of Shattering Ice does.

Blackened Ice chose the snow leopard since he and his siblings, back in the ThunderClan (where they took on the names Iceshadow, Doveflight, and Fishcatcher), were said to be named after snow leopard looks and abilities.

Special Abilities
Most cats in the tribe have thick fur that allows them to survive in the cold. Cats that do not have any thick fur coats and/or fur at all will have a hard time adapting to the cold region of the tribe's territory. Cats that do live here are fine with all of this, as their thick fur coat heats them when the temperature is too cold for their body.

Rankings
The Tribe of Shattered Ice has the same rankings as the Tribe of Rushing Water, but some things work differently, plus the noble and valued rank.

Healers
The tribe's healers are those that are descendants from Blackened Ice. They are the most important cat in the tribe. They do not just lead, but heal. They often heal using ice, snow, or water, as there are not much herbs or plants around. They always have ice-related names along with the nobles, except for Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree.

Nobles
The nobles are descendants of Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree, or Doveflight, and Fish Swimming In The Ice Cold River, or Fishcatcher. They, like the healers, always have ice-related names with the exception of Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree. They are second-in-command to the healers and act like Clan deputy.

Valued
Thee valued are cats that are not scions or anything like that, they're just noted by the healers for skills, etc. They get to stay in a certain cave to assure their safety with the help of the cave-guards. There are not many valued cats known except for Star That Shines At Night.

Prey-hunter
The prey-hunters are the tribe's hunters who are often found fishing at the lakes for fish or other river animals. They rarely come back with any other animals, but it is rumored that current prey-hunter Shining Mountain went beyond the borders and caught a puma as an apprentice. They are responsible for catching prey for the tribe.

Cave-guard
The cave-guards are those who guard the caves. Many caves are nearby, in which they need them to protect the tribe's members. Cave-guards will be punished by the healer if caught off-duty. They have cave-guards active both day and night, in which some are active during the day and others during the night.

To-be
To-bes are similar to Clan apprentices. To-bes are trained by high-ranking cats, for the job that they were planned to do.

Kit-mother
A kit-mother is similar to a queen. Kit-mothers are not allowed to return to their duties until their kits have mentors and are being trained for their jobs and it works successfully for a few days.

Elder
An elder is similar to Clan elders. Elders are those who cannot fight anymore and often assist the healers. They live in the caves guarded by cave-guards.

Kit
Kits are the same as Clan kits. Kits are told what job they will have at birth and will stay with the kit-mother until it is six moons old, in which it will be ready for training.

Kits of the healer lineage start training at the age of three moons due to them being important to the Tribe. Other Clans and Tribes consider this torture, though they take the training easily during the kits' first years.

Blackened Ice
Blackened Ice, formerly ancient ThunderClan warrior Iceshadow, was the founder of the tribe, along with his sister Doveflight (also Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree) and brother Fishcatcher (Fish Swimming In The Ice Cold River) co-founding the tribe. He was one of the kits of Wolfstar, a ThunderClan leader noted to be very generous to his Clan and one of the best leaders in ThunderClan history. They gathered cats with thick coats and helped them adapt to the cold weather, eventually forming an alliance with most cats who had thick coats and were too hot in other climates.

He had normal blue fur and ocean blue eyes.

Blackened Ice's descendants
Most of Blackened Ice's descendants are unknown, as the healer often changed about ten times a century, meaning there was possibly about a thousand healers at the position, as the tribe has been running for about a thousand years. Most however, were assassinated by their own kits so they could take over, while some were punished for doing so.

These ones mentioned are all currently deceased. Most had dark to light blue fur and light to dark blue eyes.

Silver Shining Snow
Silver Shining Snow was Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain's great-grandmother who was known as a excellent healer and who could've possibly been a medicine cat in another life according to Snowing Cloud. She was an excellent healer who died after Dark Ice Eyes, Frozen River Near The Sea's older brother, assassinated her in an attempt to take over the position. Dark Ice Eyes was caught and killed, in which Frozen River Near The Sea took over in that place.

She is currently deceased.

She had light blue fur similar to snow with light blue eyes.

Frozen River Near The Sea
Frozen River Near The Sea was Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain's grandmother who was known as a fierce fighter when she was younger. Her older brother was Dark Ice Eyes, who was planned to be the next Tribe healer, in which she would've been a prey-hunter instead, so she did prey-hunter training. However, she took the position as healer when Dark Ice Eyes assassinated Silver Shining Snow in an attempt to take over and was punished by death. She was murdered when betrayed by Tribe members Sky That Breaks At Dawn and Night With No Stars, who burned her.

She is currently deceased.

Tooth Made Of Ice
Tooth Made Of Ice was Frozen River Near The Sea's daughter and grandmother to current healer Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain. She was noted to be diligent and hard working, in which she would always be practicing her healing skills when nothing was going on.

During the Fight of Ice and Night, the war between ShadowClan, having former Tribe members Sky That Breaks At Dawn and Night With No Stars who took on warrior names Breakingsky and Darksky on the ShadowClan's side, and the Tribe of Shattering Ice, she was killed by Breakingsky after she killed Darksky, both kills in rage. However, Breakingsky was then killed by her son Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain.

She is currently deceased, as being killed by Breakingsky.

She had light blue fur with dark blue eyes.

Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain
Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain is the current healer of the Tribe of Shattering Ice and the son of Frozen River Near The Sea and a descendant of Blackened Ice. He, from when being a young kit, was enemies with Sky That Breaks At Dawn. The two's rivalry caused some controversy in the Tribe, which Sky That Breaks At Dawn claims that it contributed to his reasons of murdering Star That Shines At Night.

During the Fight of Ice and Night, the war between ShadowClan and the Tribe of Shattering Ice, he witnessed his mother's death by Breakingsky after she killed Darksky, in which he killed Breakingsky. He became leader after the Tribe defeated ShadowClan.

He is noted to be extremely diligent and hard working, just like his mother, certainly after her death.

He is the current healer and alive.

He has dark blue fur with ocean blue eyes.

Sky That Breaks At Dawn
Sky That Breaks At Dawn was a former Tribe member that after Frozen River Near The Sea's death became a rogue with his younger brother, Night With No Stars. He was extremely violent and noted to have killed his own mentor and got away with it. His mentor was valued cat Star That Shines At Night, in which they did not know about Sky That Breaks At Dawn murdering Star That Shines At Night until later on, in which in the time before they discovered that Sky That Breaks At Dawn murdered him that he died from natural causes, in which they were not sure exactly which one. He murdered Frozen River Near The Sea before he was exiled, as they thought he was normal. After the assassination of the leaer, Tooth Made of Ice took over and exiled him and his brother, in which they both were related to the murder of Star That Shines At Night, making them become rogues. Before his exile, he claimed that he murdered Frozen River Near The Sea because of his controversy with Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain many years ago.

However, ShadowClan leader Spikestar liked their aggressiveness and fighting skills that they accepted Sky That Breaks At Dawn and Night With No Stars in the Clan, in which they took on warrior names. Sky That Breaks At Dawn took on warrior name Breakingsky while Night With No Stars took on warrior name Darksky.

After the Fight of Ice and Night, Breakingsky was killed by Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain, making him deceased.

He had dark orange fur with dark brown spots and yellow eyes.

Night With No Stars
Night With No Stars was a former Tribe member that contributed to help his older brother, Sky That Breaks At Dawn, to help murder current healer at the time Frozen River Near The Sea. He was noted to be aggressive, but not as aggressive as his brother. After Tooth Made Of Ice, Frozen River Near The Sea's daughter, became the next healer and found out about Sky That Breaks At Dawn and Night With No Stars murdering valued cat Star That Shines At Night instead of him dying of natural causes, he and his brother were exiled and became a rogue.

However, ShadowClan discovered them and liked their aggressiveness and fighting skills, in which leader at the time Spikestar accepted them in, as he liked their skills. Night With No Stars took on warrior name Darksky while Sky That Breaks At Dawn took on warrior name Breakingsky.

After the Fight of Ice and Night, Darksky was killed by Tooth Made of Ice, making him deceased.

He had completely black fur and no spots unlike his brother and had green eyes.

Star That Shines At Night
Star That Shines At Night was a valued cat for his excellent ability of defending himself that was also a mentor for kits awaiting training. He was killed by Sky That Breaks At Dawn, one of his former students, who was then exiled by Tooth Made Of Ice.

History
The Tribe of Shattering Ice was founded by ancient ThunderClan warriors Iceshadow, Doveflight, and Fishcatcher, who took on Tribe names Blackened Ice, Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree, and Fish Swimming In The Ice Cold River who were the kits of ancient ThunderClan leader Wolfstar and his mate Lightningthroat. They ran away during their fight with the ShadowClan, in which they had a plan to unite all the Clans, and maybe the Tribes too, in peace together.

The goal was shortly disappearing as time passed on, as the Tribe became about assassinating the current healer if the kits of the current healer wanted their place as healer. Those kits were punished by death unless if there were no others that were able to take their place.

Things changed when Frozen River Near The Sea became the Tribe's healer. In the time, two kits Sky That Breaks At Dawn and Night With No Stars lived. However, due to an accident of wandering around while being bored, Sky That Breaks At Dawn encountered Frozen River Near The Sea's grandson Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain, in which they began to have fights about the Tribe hierarchy and leadership. Sky That Breaks At Dawn, being as arrogant as he was, thought that he should be the next in line for the healer, as he could do a better job than his mother Tooth Made Of Ice, which made Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain angry, as he devoted himself to his mother. It caused controversy in the Tribe after it being overheard by multiple cats, who reported it to the leader, in which Sky That Breaks At Dawn was punished with no prey for two days.

Shortly afterwards, he murdered valued cat and his mentor Star That Shines At Night due to the controversy and him going feral about it.

When they became closer to adults, the situation became worse. Sky That Breaks At Dawn and his younger brother Night With No Stars became more power hungry and decided to try and overthrow the current healers and replace the lineage with his own, as Sky That Breaks At Dawn self-proclaimed himself worthy while claiming the current healer lineage, descendants of the main founder of the Tribe, was not worthy enough and that he should be the healer and rebuild the Tribe. He successfully, with his brother, burned current leader at the time Frozen River Near The Sea alive, but was caught by Tooth Made Of Ice, Frozen River Near The Sea's daughter, who exiled Sky That Breaks At Dawn and Night With No Stars, turning them into rogue cats that were later taken in by ShadowClan leader at the time Spikestar, in which they took on warrior names.

Sky That Breaks At Dawn was then known as Breakingsky, while Night With No Stars was then known as Darksky. They were completely against the Tribe and were ready to overthrow them. They discussed this with leader Spikestar, in which he agreed to help them overthrow the Tribe by starting a war, in which the war became known as Fight of Ice and Night.

The war began when ShadowClan warriors, lead by Breakingsky and Darksky, made a surprise attack followed with the Clan's fiercest warriors attacking, including apprentices who were still in their training and those who were almost out of it. This made the Tribe have to fight unprepared, as Tooth Made Of Ice had to immediately send everyone who was able to fight out.

The war continued, in which a few breaking points happened. Breakingsky and Darksky hid the whole time as they tried to find a way to sneak on to the healers and kill them. Darksky then attempted to pounce on Tooth Made of Ice and failed, in which Tooth Made of Ice killed Darksky as revenge, not just for herself, but for the whole Tribe, enraging Breakingsky. Breakingsky then attacked and was more fierce and powerful than Darksky and eventually killed Tooth Made Of Ice, devastating the watching members of the Tribe. However, Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain, enraged, then attacked Breakingsky in a one-on-one close combat fight that made the whole war stop to watch: leader of one side VS. leader of the other side, as they considered Breakingsky to be the main leader of their side, as it was his idea. Even Spikestar watched the fight.

After long turns of pouncing on each other, biting each other, scratching and clawing each other, etc, Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain made one last move: large pounce combined with clawing at the stomach and bites, that killed Breakingsky in one of those large moves. ShadowClan, impressed by Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain's fighting skills, retreated and surrendered, making the Tribe of Shattering Ice the winner of the Fight of Ice and Night.

After the war, since Tooth Made Of Ice was killed by Breakingsky during the fight, Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain's coronation occurred, in which he, in the name of Blackened Ice, became the next healer of the Tribe. Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain, in the name of his mother, then adapted his personality to be more like his mother's so he could lead the tribe as best as she did.

After that, they established their allegiance with DragonClan and the leader Dragonstar, in which they offered to protect each other and fight for each other during wars in return for prey and other valuable things.

Diet
The Tribe of Shattering Ice's diet includes seafood such as fish. They live near a river, so they often capture prey from it, which is usually anything they can find there.

Territory
The tribe's territory lies beyond all other cats' territories, including most tribes and Clans. They live in an Antarctica-like region, in which it is covered with snow and has extremely low temperatures. The cold temperatures makes it hard for other cats wanting to attack to come in, since it is extremely hard for cats to adapt to the cold temperatures. It also cools down their prey, in which giving the tribe advantage to surviving. They do not live near a sea, but near a river, in which they get most of their fish and food from there.

Healers' Den
The healers of the Tribe get their own cave, as well as their kits, as they share the cave. The healer of the Tribe takes charge of running the Healers' Den. Currently, Fjord Sliding Down The Mountain runs the den. The healers' cousins, brothers, mates, etc also live in there.

The Den of the Valued
Valued cats of the Tribe live in The Den of the Valued. They say their ancestors of the valued cats reside in there. There is no leader of The Den of the Valued, but some cats said that there should have been one, and it should've been when Star That Shines At Night was still alive.

Prey-hunter Den
The prey-hunters reside in this den. There, they discuss hunting strategies and other things related to prey hunting. They have no leader, but their "leader", or the one who watches over the den, is Snowy Owl In Flight.

Cave-guard Den
Cave-guards reside in this den. They do not often stay in it except for sleeping, however. Like the prey-hunter den, they have no leader, but their "leader" is Leopard In The Shadows.

Room of Snowballs
The Room of Snowballs is the nursery for the Tribe of Shattering Ice, like the nursery where queens reside in Clans. It was named after Doveflight/Light In The Cave Near The Blossom Tree's mispronunciation of kits she did back in ThunderClan. When it was snowing, ThunderClan territory, including the nursery, was covered in snow, so when Doveflight was checking on the queens for Wolfstar, she saw newborn kits with light to white fur, in which she accidentally mispronounced them as "snowballs". One of the queens with the newborn kits she called "snowballs" named one of them Snowkit, in which they then in the future became Snowpaw and then Snowball before Doveflight and her siblings fled to found the Tribe. The Tribe still laughs at Doveflight's mistake.

The kit-mothers, or queens, of the Tribe reside here when they're any of the following:


 * expecting kits
 * recently gave birth to kits

Kit-mothers usually move in a week before kitting.

The Room of Snowballs has two rooms: Icecover and Snowblanket.

Icecover
The Icecover is the room where the kit-mothers reside as their own den. The Icecover is covered in layers of snow to hide the kit-mothers in case of an attack, in which they dig and hide under layers of soft snow. Before any of the kit-mothers give birth, they leave Icecover and move over to Snowblanket, as Icecover is built to protect kit-mothers, not for them to give birth in.

Snowblanket
Snowblanket is the room where kit-mothers give birth in. Like Icecover, it is also covered in layers of ice, but has more layers to protect kits in incase of an attack, in which they dig and hide under the snow. Nests are made out of sticks and ice.
