TB Bio - Larchkit (Patreon)

First Appearance: The Great Journey - Midnight

Appearance: Gray-and-white tabby with one amber eye, one blue

Gender: Tom

Family: Ferncloud [mother], Snowstep [father], Hollykit [sister, deceased], Birchkit [brother, deceased]

Mentor: Ashfur

Other: Deaf on blue-eyed side

Names: Larchkit, Larchpaw, Larchclaw [warrior name subject to change]

Larchkit is the only surviving kit of Ferncloud and Snowstep's first litter - his siblings, Hollykit and Birchkit, both died from the starvation that afflicted the Clans when the Twolegs invaded the forest territories.

At a little over 3 moons old, Larchkit made the Great Journey with the four Clans. Lonely without his siblings (and being the only kit in ThunderClan at the time), he quickly befriended Rushkit and Willowkit, Finchsong's kits in ShadowClan. They were almost inseparable along the way, and got into several counts of trouble together - but, at the lake, the three kits had to part. Will their friendship continue to defy boundaries?

Larchkit is deaf on his blue-eyed side. Thankfully, due to Snowstep and Cinderpelt, pawspeak was well integrated into ThunderClan for seasons by the time this was discovered, and Larchkit has next to no trouble communicating with his Clanmates.

I felt like doing a little more TB art while Dawn is finishing up on it's public mirrors and Starlight is in-progress. I thought maybe doing little bios for lesser-known cats here or there might be fun, and Larchkit came to mind as the first one (don't ask why, I have no idea :P). I can also include bits of info that aren't super spoilery for future installments, like I did here for Larchkit's mentor and possible warrior name!
