BloodClan is a highly powerful Clan that appeared briefly in The Darkest Hour as well as having a few references in later books. It appears to be made up of Kittypets, but is more likely made up of street cats and Rogues that live around Twolegplace.
Other Information

- There have been only one set of BloodClan allegiances, included in the The Darkest Hour Allegiances
- BloodClan does not believe in StarClan, and their leader does not have the nine lives of a Clan leader
In The Darkest Hour
Tigerstar planned to use BloodClan to convince ThunderClan and WindClan to join TigerClan (Modern). In return, BloodClan would get a share of the forest, although Tigerstar had no intention of following through on that part of the bargain. However, the plan backfired when Tigerstar found that he could not control BloodClan, and was killed by BloodClan's leader, Scourge in one terrible blow that destroyed all nine of Tigerstar's lives at once.
Scourge, who by then had decided to take the territory for himself, gave the Clans three days to leave. Firestar managed to convince the four Clans to form LionClan (Modern) to take on BloodClan. At the end of the three days, LionClan and BloodClan met in battle. The death toll was heavy, the most prominent being Whitestorm of ThunderClan. Scourge took one of Firestar's nine lives before Firestar was able to kill him, ending the battle.
