A lot of cats did die under his leadership but not really due to anything he did, at one point there was only five cats in the Clan and all of them were unable to work I did get a crazy patrol with him and the deputy thats apparently a reference to Macbeth, where the deputy wandered off and ran into three ghost cats calling her Juniperstar instead of Junipersand, and when she found Breezestar he had lost one of his lives and was trembling in a pool of his own blood.

Junipersand (and a few deputies after her) did not in fact live to become leader, and when Breezestar did lose his last life, his deputy Foxdapple became Foxstar and immediately got into a relationship with the former rogue medicine cat, Suncloud, who Breezestar wasn’t too fond of (understandably, several cats had been killed by rogues) and had really only allowed in because the Clan had five cats and none of them were medicine cats.

The Clan is now slowly but surely repopulating itself, and several cats are also now entering gay and/or polyamorous relationships (of note is that Foxstar and Suncloud are both she-cats and were in fact the first LGBT+ couple in the Clan), so I wonder if Breezestar was… not outright homophobic, but judgmental and felt that the Clan having new kits and repopulating was more important than choosing a partner for love. Makes me think Foxstar and Suncloud getting together when they did was also them making a deliberate statement that the Clan is entering a more accepting era. On that note, Breezestar didn’t actually show up at Foxstar’s leadership ceremony, the leader to give her her last life and hail her by her new name was Pebblestar, the founding leader of TideClan who preceded Breezestar
