Velvetfur

Physical Description
Velvetfur is a pretty, fluffy brown colorpoint with a missing eye and white toes.

Personality
Velvetfur is kind and gentle. However, she will get her paws dirty. He has strong beliefs and holds bonds with others very close to her. When angered, Velvet can be pretty strong, despite her short stature.

Kithood
Velvetkit was born to Snowfeather a few days after she had become a warrior. She and her two sisters were born very shortly before the flood. A little after the flood, Hollowkit, an albino, died due to being out in the sun too long and hyperthermia from the winter. Snowfeather was devastated and grieved over her lost kit, neglecting Featherkit and Velvetkit in return.

Apprenticeship
Velvetpaw was mentored by a she-cat named Leafblare. She never really did anything with Velvetpaw, so she went to watch and imitate training sessions with other apprentices. During this time, she became self-conscious. Being mute and missing an eye was difficult. No one really approached her or talked to her. So, Velvetpaw was set on just becoming a good warrior instead of focusing on friendships or love.

Warrior Life
Velvetpaw had been named Velvetfur due to her unbelievably soft fur. Her sister, Featherstrut, left the clan very soon after. Everyone believed she was dead, causing the mute to go into a depression along with her mother. For moons Velvetfur had sat alone, not even her mother to comfort her.

At some point, her mother even lashed out at her saying how she never wanted kits and that she wished that Velvetfur had never existed. After, Snowfeather apologized profusely, telling her how she was caught up in her grief over Featherstrut and Hollowkit. The two had made up and began spending a lot more time together to make up for the time they had lost. Snowfeather became extremely protective of Velvetfur and wouldn't let any tom get even close to her. This bothered Velvetfur, but she only smiled at her mother, not wanting to hurt her.

The behavior continued until Bravecry approached her. He complimented her and she was utterly shocked. Velvetfur became flustered immediately and Snowfeather glared at him protectively and warned the deputy to get lost. That's how Bravecry's relationship with Velvetfur's mother slammed downhill. Being the prideful deputy he is, Bravecry wouldn't take the disrespect from Snowfeather. Velvetfur had to break their glares and fighting quite a few times. Bravecry and Velvetfur hung out more and more, building a relationship. However, assigned mates in the clan didn't take a liking to them. Bravecry was assigned to Waspdawn and Velvetfur to Charcoaldust, who later died and Velvet didn't get another mate.

The hurricane came around and drove Viperclan from their home once more. They had to stay at the ruins of Deerclan. The conflict that came with rising tensions with leadership only strengthened Velvetfur and Bravecry's relationship. Once they came back to Viperclan camp, the two started sneaking out at night to share their affections with each other. Soon, Waspdawn had Bravecry's kits, making Velvetfur jealous but happy for them. She got along with only Gracekit as Mellowkit never talked to her and Harekit only glared at her. They were puzzled when she wasn't able to speak, but they soon learned to get over it. Even with the kits, Velvetfur and Bravecry still sneak out to see each other often. They are planning to get Bravecry's mate switched not that Gracekit, Mellowkit, and Harekit are apprentices. Bravecry being Ashstar's old friend, he hopes to convince him to let him and Velvetfur be together.

Once the kits were warriors, their mates got switched to each other. Velvetfur had caught the first sickness that had swept through the clan. She infected many and a quarantine was made. After she healed, she went out for a walk and found Turtlecatcher dying giving birth to kits. Velvetfur was quick to help and Kelpkit was born. Her mother was already dead, so Velvetfur took Kelpkit in. She had told Bravecry that she was hers, fearing the worst. It wasn't long before Velvetfur herself was expecting kits. Once she figured it out, she ran to her mother to tell her. Hormones hit hard and she would wail about her kits going to die. Bravecry found out she was pregnant, but it would have been impossible for her to have kits so soon after Kelptkit. She told Bravecry the truth and he was furious with her. Velvetfur fled to the river and tried to get rid of her kits, but her love for them was overwhelming and she clawed her side instead of her belly. She went back to Bravecry, wanting to make up with him and he only got more upset that she tried to get rid of the kits. However, he did forgive her. Suddenly, Kelpkit's birth father, Burnstar of Blazeclan. Kelpkit had a choice to leave with him or stay with the ones who raised her. Bravecry warned her that she wouldn't be able to come back and Kelpkit went with Bravecry.

After Velvetfur was healed, she was worried, scared, and nervous about her kits. She often had mood swings and sobbed. Soon, she had her kits. They were all toms: Coalkit, Dirtkit, and Dustkit. Bravecry had become Bravestar a bit before she had birthed her kits due to Ashstar's leg becoming crippled.

Shortly after her kits became warriors, Bravestar passed away due to illness and Velvetfur joined him soon after.
