#5-Sol. Sol manipulated everyone using words and managed to destroy Shadowclan in the end. He wasn't that dangerous of a villain in terms of being lethal, but he was memorable. I liked reading about him as a character because his villainy style was interesting.
#4-Tigerclaw. I put Tigerclaw higher on this list because he did more damage than Sol as well as being a very hated character because he is a villain and put him on top 10 worst worst characters simply because he did many bad things. However, as soon as I read about his POV, I was drawn to him. I consider Tigerclaw vile, but interesting. Tigerclaw was able to be a pretty big threat while dead.
#3-Darktail. My favorite villain to read about despite only reading about him in one book(Hawkwing's journey). He made everything super suspenseful and disorganized(in a good way). He managed to destroy Skyclan and apparently, nearly destroyed the other clans. He would gain other cats' trust and break it and then gain their trust again. He, along with Tigerclaw and Sol, were well written villains. I enjoyed reading about his betrayal of Skyclan despite knowing it would happen.
#2-Gray Wing. My favorite character and the only main protagonist on this list. He was a memorable guy and a good leader. He has a bunch of downfalls and good points in his life. He didn't do anything heroic, yet was a good character. His death pained me so much after fighting his asthma for 3-4 books after saving Clear Sky from the fire. I rooted for Gray Wing all the way and the series he was in was the only time I felt strong feeling to the point of seeing the book from each other the characters' POV.
#1-Cody. She made a lasting impression on me as a minor character in the New Prophecy. She stood out because of her heroism and willingness to help cats she doesn't know. I have no idea what it is about her that makes me drawn to her. And this is a character that didn't even last 5 chapters. Her friendship with Leafpool(then Leafpaw) was sweet and wholesome, to the point where I shipped them. It was sad when Cody decided not to stay in the Thunderclan because her owners would miss her. She is overall a good character who made the biggest impression on me.
