If someone is granted the title of leader of their Clan, they get the suffix - Star added to their name and leading responsibilities of their entire Clan. The leader must go to the CresentDen in the Ceremony Territory and recieve their nine lives and name to be an official leader.

Medicine cats are a special group of cats that can easily stand outside of Clan rivalries and such.
They are trained by their mentors, in the way of healing and interpreting signs from StarClan.
A fully-trained warrior can take the job as a medicine cat or medicine cat apprentice; like in the case of Mothwing.
They are NOT allowed to take a mate or have kits, which can result in a lonely life, and forbidden affairs...

A warrior is a tom or a she-cat not nursing kits that are trained for combat and hunting.
If the leader thinks that they are responsible enough, they are in charge of training an apprentice.
Warriors defend and feed their Clan.
