SOOTWHISPER
summitclan ∙ warrior ∙ they/them ∙ 100 moons
Appearance
a tall, sturdy black feline with yellow eyes
Standing at sixteen inches at the shoulder, Sootwhisper is one of the largest and sturdiest warriors of the Clan- if not the largest. They were born female, but during their apprenticeship they realized that they are nonbinary. They have thick, feathery black fur with a blue-green undertone akin to a raven's wing. There do not have any white on them. Their large, round eyes are a very pale yellow. They're known for sitting on other cats to break up fights- and no-one wants Sootwhisper's heavy weight on them. When in a fight, Sootwhisper has protected their defense skills to effectively become something akin to a boulder. Plus, they are more of a barbarian when it comes to it. There's a reason why they hold themself so delicately in everyday life. They are very careful not to accidentally break something.
Personality
+ honorable | +/- quiet | - passive
Until Sootwhisper is forced into battle, they are passive to an extreme point. Arguing and in-Clan fighting will see them walking away or physically sitting on top of them until they calm down. They're heavy enough for it, after all. Their size is the reason they're so passive- they're afraid to break something, especially other cats. They were very much encouraged to work on their strength as an apprentice, despite their doubts. As a result, they're a bit hesitant to have an aggressive front. They don't want to scare anyone, after all. Sootwhisper is just as hesitant in making decisions.
Despite being extraordinarily passive, Sootwhisper is a quiet cat. They are not very loud in the first place, and would rather communicate in short, direct words. Grunts will also do. Just because they're quiet though doesn't mean they don't enjoy the company of the Clan. They can often be seen sharing tongues with their mother, acquaintances in the warriors' den, and conversing with the elders. Occasionally, they might be seen helping build the camp back up and assisting with the heavier items. Sootwhisper is proud to serve their Clan.
They follow a very strict personal code of honor as well as the warrior Code. Soot aspires to always be there for those that need them, to be on time, and to always tell the truth to the best of their ability. One of the things that will get Soot in trouble is that once a cat is down, they won't strike them again. They believe that hurting someone when they are down isn't right. It makes them feel all gross and twisted on the inside, and they don't like it. Sootwhisper has a very strong sense of morals, and it is difficult for them to see the opposite side of things.

Plotting, History, & Relations
PLOT INTEGRATION:
Sootwhisper would much rather sit and watch than actively participate. The quiet observer. They are extremely passive and would rather think things through before rushing. They don't trust TimberClan, and definitely, definitely do not trust the Court. Outsiders are on par with the Court. After what happened with Goldenstar (bless the sweet leader), they're wary of what the future awaits for them. Sootwhisper hasn't properly met the other two groups, only seeing them from a fair distance at gathering and not interacting with them at all. If they are approached at all, their narrow-minded view might be changed.
FAMILY:
Parents: Valleyspring (Mother; deceased), Smokeripple (Father; deceased)
Sibling(s): None
HISTORY:
Valleyspring's pregnancy was a difficult one from the start. It was hard to tell how many kits she was having, and at one point her belly swelled so much she'd been confined to the medicine den for fear she would hurt herself. When she went into labor, it was drizzling. A slow, heavy sort of rain that only set the sadness in further for those who suffered from it deeply. It was a cool, leaf-fall morning somewhere near the end of the season with the deputy assigning patrols for the day. Sootkit was born with immense difficulty, with complications starting as soon as labor did.
In the end, Valleyspring was lost. The blood loss and the beginnings of greencough developing were too much. Smokeripple's grief couldn't be held back, and he still mourns her 67 moons later. He never took another mate, although he did give Sootkit to a distraught molly who had given birth to two tiny stillborns. He grew to become close friends with said molly, but he never took her as a mate. Smokeripple didn't have any other kits as well.
