Appearances

"Episode 1: No-Mane"

Sharptongue is first seen telling her grandchildren the story of the great kingdoms and the beginning of Prides. Not long after, Powerstrike calls for her to go hunting, leaving her grandchildren with their father, Starmane. After Quickmane defeats Starmane in combat, Sharptongue tells Powerstrike that the new Mane must co-exist with Nothing and Fire because Nothing had bested Quickmane in combat. She then tells Quickmane that if he harms the cubs, he'll have defied the Goddesses.

"Episode 2: Nothing"

Sharptongue asks Nothing if she is certain she doesn't want to select the name her mother had chosen for her, to which Nothing replies that she doesn't want to be called 'Hobblestep'. Sharptongue then watches Nothing perform her huntress assessment. When Nothing fails, Powerstrike asks the Pride to lend their voices in favor of the name 'Nothing'. Sharptongue and Fire then glare at Powerstrike with a look of anger and disapproval, refusing to roar for their approval alongside the rest of the Pride. After the naming ceremony, she tries to console Nothing by telling her that she was brave.

"Episode 3: The Calling"

Sharptongue lays on top of a large rock at the Sisters Steppe, seemingly more ill and tired than before. During the Pride meeting, she begins to cough, causing Powerstrike to be worried about her mother. After being asked if she is all right, Sharptongue does not answer directly and instead apologizes, asking Powerstrike to continue. While the rest of the Pride goes to perform their duties, Nothing and Sharptongue are ordered to stay behind to watch Waterhunter's cubs.

Sharptongue begins telling the story of the sun Goddess, Sunce, and her fires in the Emerald Valley, but halfway through the story, she begins to cough again. When Nothing tells Sharptongue that she should rest, the lioness stares at her in horror and tells her to find the Shifting Place, and to end the cycle. She then begins to cough violently as Nothing cries for help, and eventually collapses and succumbs to her illness. Later on, the Pride gathers around her dead body. The huntresses call out to Asra so that she can take Sharptongue's spirit to the stars. Nothing expresses her grief for Sharptongue later on to Hover, which convinces her to join the Pride.

"Episode 4: Outsider"

Quickmane mentions Sharptongue to Nothing when he asks if he can trust her to look after his cubs without the latter's help.

"Episode 5: Escape"

When a storm occurs during Nothing and Quickmane's fight, Silentstalk asks why it is raining during dry season, to which Powerstrike responds that Sharptongue was right about the goddesses.

"Episode 6: Prideless"

Sharptongue is mentioned briefly by Feather, before being mentioned directly by Nothing when asked to tell a story. When Feather asks if Sharptongue is among the stars with Asra, Nothing tells him that she is if Asra heard the Pride's call.

Relationships

Nothing

Sharptongue cared very deeply for her granddaughter, often telling her stories as a cub. She insisted on letting Nothing and her brother stay in the Pride with Quickmane to safe her life. When Powerstrike gave her granddaughter's name at her assessment, Powerstrike still referred to her as 'granddaughter' for quite some time.

When she was sick, she helped Nothing watch over the Pride's cubs. Before she passed away, she gave an omen to Nothing to find the Shifting Place. She succumbed to her sickness next to her granddaughter, and was missed by the latter very much.
