Slatepaw

Appearance & Personality
Slatepaw is a pale, slate-grey she-cat with darker grey rosettes dotting her pelt. She bears striping on the lower half of her legs and tail, a slate-grey tail tip. She bears her father's dark blue eyes, along with a small scar on the back of her left ear.

Slate is calm and cool-headed. She enherited both of her parents' more temperamental personalities, including her father's cynicism and her mother's bad temper.

Brief History
Slatepaw is the daughter of Smokeclaw and his former mate Larkfur, granddaughter of Graystar, and great-great granddaughter of Icestar.

Early Life
Slatepaw was born in ShadowClan to Larkfur. She had one sibling, but they were pronounced stillborn. Few knew who Slate's father was, but it was in fact Smokeclaw, who had left some time prior to the birth. Larkfur had hidden her pregnancy from Smokeclaw while he was in ShadowClan, and gave birth in secret. Slate lived in ShadowClan for a few moons, before Larkfur, deciding her parenting skills were far from good, and not wanting children anyway, went searching for Smokeclaw. She later found him, and handed over the young she-kit to him to raise.

ShadowClan
Slate and Smokeclaw often travelled the territories surrounding the clans, in his attempt to teach her everything he knew. The two over time grew very close to another. Unfortunately. the two were attacked by a fox while returning to their den one day, and while Smokeclaw was able to kill it, he was also mortally wounded (just like his father had done). Smokeclaw requested that she return to ShadowClan, so she would not be running around alone. She obeyed his wishes, and sometime after burying his body, vacated their shared den and went off to find ShadowClan. She was welcomed in, and took the name of Slatepaw.
