Lets talk about Darktail's parents
Darktail is the son of Hawkfrost and Sol in the Wildfire Rewrite. You may be thinking "Hey, they don't ever meet in canon!" and that would be correct. Sol is younger in this AU and Sun Fireheart's Vow (Firestar's Quest) happens earlier, so the timelines can match up.
Hawkfrost and Sol meet up during Mudclaw's rebellion, when he catches Hawkfrost, Mudclaw, Thornsnarl, and Cedarheart meeting up. Hawkfrost is the first to attack, but gets pinned easily. The other three don't dare move, as Sol's wicked sharp claws hover above Hawkfrost's throat.
Sol eventually lets Hawkfrost up after Mudclaw explains their rebellion and plan to hijack the sects. He says that he'll be joining their meetings from now on, but he stares at Hawkfrost while he says this. Since the sects are a battle culture, Hawkfrost's defeat is actually very flattering to the loser. The group keeps meeting up, and eventually they strike. I'll be making another post about the rebellions later on. They fail. Sol and Hawkfrost slip away together, unnoticed. Sol is unwounded, but Hawkfrost is bleeding heavily. Before Hawkfrost is able to guide Sol to the new Creekbay Base, he passes out from the blood loss and head damage he'd sustained. Sol decides to just take Hawkfrost away for a bit and heal him.
About a year later, Hawkfrost returns to Creekbay. He's alone. He claims he was kidnapped by a rogue after the battle, but his voice seems clipped, and he cannot repeat the story without looking away. He's sporting a few wicked scars, and one is strangely shaped over his chest. It's circular.
Hawkfrost's death happens, but not the way you think. His death will get it's own post. Either way, he's dead. Fast forward to the almost-end of the Eclipse Era. Sol returns, and with many followers. Three of which are his own kits. Darktail, Violetshine, and Twigbranch.
Darktail hates the sects. His sisters don't feel the same. When Sol's group crumbles, he picks up the pieces and hits the sects where it hurts. He kills the sentry of the Deep Nightfall Sect. Puddleshine's death sets off a chain of events that will have the sects grasping for air.
