Appearance
 
Short Description :
A small, skinny gray she-cat with a ragged tail and staring blind eyes
Long Description :
Blacksight is a decently small-sized cat, but thats mostly because of her father, Birdleap. Her bones are thin and are visible through her thin gray fur that looks more like the color of burnt grass than anything else. There is a small, diamond-like white shape on her chest, where the fur gets thicker and softer. Blacksights tail is long and ragged, mostly from battles and skinning it against things she cannot see. Her ears are tall and often swiveled back in frustration, and her paws are scarred from much use. Her eyes look nothing like theyd be blind, in fact theyre a soft shade of yellow that are actually quite pretty. Her pupils are narrowed and unblinking and often scare first-time apprentices. Her face is narrow and sculpted, with deep cheekbones and a tapered muzzle. Overall shes a decently looking cat, but her flaws give her a bad judgment on any first meeting.
Personality
 
 
Blacksight used to be a thoroughly bitter cat. Between her sister that she barely talks to, the time as an apprentice lost because of her sickly metabolism, and because, well, she's blind, she hasn't been given much of a light. But something - someone - has changed that. Yes, although she resumes the rank of elder she does have a mate. Shatteredtail, another Shadowclan warrior, helped her to 'see' the light and might have saved her life mentally. While she used to have an angrily sharp tongue, Blacksight is now only sarcastic. She coldn't lose that, since it defines her whole personality, sarcasm. While before she could harbor sadness, and almost unbearable sadness, its now supressed to the most rare occasions of self-pity during stress. She still gets frustrated when there's something she needs to see, or her tail is raw because she cleaned it too much without noticing. But she knows that those will never be cured, and she will always be blind, and has come to live with that. Her look on life is a bit more optimistic (Although she will never, never be peppy) and a lot more happy. And while she seemed tough with her bitter tongue before, the sadness really made her weak. Now the happiness will make her stronger.
History
 
Key Dates  
Full History :
Grasskit was born to two Shadowclan warriors: Swiftclaw, a sarcastic but extremely fast she-cat and Birdleap: a small and very cautious tom. No one thought they would even like each other, but they quickly fell in love and Swiftclaw quickly got pregnant.

She was born in a small litter of two: her and her one sister, who was noticeably larger and healthier than herself. In fact, Grasskit was small and slightly sickly, and spent much time in the medicine cats den. Her father often stayed with her and comforted her, but Swiftclaw and her sister were made for each other, and Grasskit rarely saw them. Eventually, she got better and healthier, just in time to be apprenticed. She was apprenticed to a cat named Flarefur, a strong young warrior who trained her well. But he didnt like her, as well as he taught, and often told her that shed never be strong enough for a warrior. She despised him, but she strengthened day by day and was picked on her first battle: a border dispute near Riverclan. In fact, her sister was chosen too, so immediate competition was built between the two. At the battle, she fought hard and fierce, and even saved her sisters life towards the end. A huge warrior had nearly bowled into the sister when she slammed into him and scared him off. Triumphant and smug, they headed back.

But their dispute was not over, Grasspaw and her sister. Day by day they tried to train harder than each other, and soon became amazing apprentices merely because of their resent for each other. And eventually, Grasspaw graduated as Grassfur a full two moons before her sister. She was at the top of the world, and had far proven herself to her sister. She was named Grassfur, and her first moons as a warrior were the best of her life. But it was all to end as her and her newly-named warrior sister headed off to fight again.

This fight was far worse. In fact, it was a battle. Grassfur fought hard, but was soon backed into a corner by another strong warrior. She tried to slip around him, but he launched himself on her and slashed at her face. She fell unconscious, and awoke in the medicine cats den later on. Her sister had had the time of her life, and had been the hero of the battle. But something was wrong for Grassfur. She awoke in the night, or so she thought, and commented on what a pitch-black night it was. The medicine cat was confused. It was sun-high. So Grassfur was blind.

The leader gave her the name Blacksight, and at around twenty moons, she had to face a choice: leave the clan or become an elder. She was no sue for a warrior, because her ways of the world using sight were so engraved on her brain that she couldnt possibly relearn them as a blind cat. Heart-broken, she became the youngest elder in the clan. Now she has lived there for twenty moons.

For a long, long time she was bitter and snappy. But as she met Shatteredtail, her mood has lightened up very much, and with an understanding mate life seems a whole lot brighter. Soon after becoming mates, Blacksight became pregnant. She was very excited, but on the other hand, afraid that she'd be incapable of mothering.

But the birth of her kits went fine. There were three kits - a black, tuxedo tom, a gray she-cat with white patches, and a solid gray tom. The gray tom, however, was born stillborn... or they thought. He was pronounced dead, until miraculously he moved. Sagepelt worked to revive the kit, and he came to - he was weak and sickly, but alive. And so Blacksight had three kits, the black tom Birdkit, the gray she-cat Lilykit, and the gray tom Rushkit. They are growing quickly and getting into all kinds of trouble, but they, along with Shatteredtail, are the loves of Blacksight's life, and have pulled her away from her deep, dark pit.

Blacksight died on the first day of the Moon of Leopard's Rest (2008).
