Violetpaw

RedwoodClan

blue and white classic tabby she-cat with amber eyes

Standing only nine inches at the shoulder, Violetkit totters happily among giants. Most of her clan-mates, including her parents and siblings, tower over her, despite her unremarkably average height. She is simply small for a RedwoodClan warrior, which only delights her and her rose-colored view of the island.

Built compactly and with defined muscles, Violetkit exudes strength, though perhaps unconventionally. Her body is covered in a soft layer of fat, giving her a much rounder appearance than her peers. Inheriting her father's physique, Violetkit bears a friendly and welcoming presence, which is only exacerbated by her bubbly personality. But under her soft plush pelt, lies a well-trained warrior who can pack a powerful punch.

The color of her mother, Violetkit wears a blue pelt wrapped in large, captivating classic tabby stripes. They rope around her flank in a darker shade of slate. Not without her father's influence, Violetkit also bears notable white-spotting, particularly on the undersides of her pelt. From her muzzle to her underbelly, she is alabaster in color. Her front paws display the same hue, as do her hind-legs up to her hocks. Delightfully, the very tippy top of her tail is also white.

As the rest of her, Violekit's face is charmingly round and amiable. She has a circular visage with a small defined muzzle. Her nose is a dark rose color and long white whiskers trail from her maws. Violetkit has slightly, comically large ears for her frame, giving her a permanent kitten-like appearance. Her eyes are large and round and sparkle like the setting sun, a rich amber in color.

Wielding a positive perspective on life, Violetkit has a knack for always finding the silver lining, no matter the situation. Perhaps due to the kindness of both of her parents or their gentle rearing, Violetkit is stubbornly optimistic, even when skies are gray and dreary. When a den-mate sees rain, Violetkit sees a brighter tomorrow. She is endearingly sociable and enjoys learning about her den-mates. Playful and friendly, Violetkit wants to make friends with whoever she meets. Conversation comes naturally to her, never at loss for what to say.

Seeing everyone as a friend, however, limits the depths of her relationships. She is noncommittal, and very few of her den-mates hear about Violetkit's personal thoughts or feelings. Her optimism and desire to help others circumvents her own emotions and desires, and she struggles talking about herself or choosing to be selfish, even when it's good for her. Her empathy teeters into sensitivity. A frequent crier, Violetkit can feel others' emotions very easily, which can be draining, even if she refuses to admit it.

A daughter of Finchstar and Pebblefoot, she is an unusual thinker, boasting a rather creative mind. Violetkit is original, always wanting to trod down the path less traveled than follow the crowd. However, her creativity can border on whimsy and the fantastical. Her head may wander in the clouds from time to time. It makes her inventive and unique, compared to some of her den-mates, but also perhaps challenging for her parents or future mentor if they're trying to reason with her or get her to return to earth and face reality.

Violetkit is not the most practical thinker, and her naivety can get the best of her. Wanting to believe in the best of others may lead her into exhausting and trying relationships and situations if she doesn't learn to navigate them. She can also be off-putting to her den-mates, some finding her oddball quirks eccentric or weird. It is not unusual to find Violetkit humming or talking to herself in camp, and she flounders when others require her to be serious.

Finchstar and Pebblefoot's romance was not one of young, reckless love, nor was it moons of pining and torment. They were simply friends for a very long time, having known each other since kithood. Pebblefoot's mother, Heatherstar, took the young and nervous Finchpaw as her apprentice, and their paths were forever intertwined.

It was not until their later moons did they finally begin to see each other in a different light, one of romance and passion. After spending a night together during a raging and dangerous snowstorm, their relationship blossomed into mates, and they found themselves expecting kits.

On the precipice of green-leaf, Pebblefoot gave birth to a healthy litter of our, two tom and two she-cats: Acornkit, Parselykit, Thymekit, and Violetkit. Born into a loving and supporting family, Violetkit has known nothing but the care and kindness of her parents and siblings. But a vast, and sometimes dangerous, world waits for her outside of the nursery. Fortunately, Violetkit is ready to take it on, and perhaps, change it a little bit too.
