Appearance
 
Short Description :
A black tom with amber eyes, a fluffy tail and graying muzzle
Long Description :
Crowfur has short sleek black fur, which is glossy and shiny when clean or wet. The color of his pelt makes excellent camouflage for night hunting, and thus he prefers to use the shadows to his advantage - even during the day, he tends to keep in the shade of reeds and trees, except when sunbathing. He has dark amber eyes, of a tone that looks more like black flecked with gold. In daytime, if those eyes get caught in the sunlight, their color turns to a bright golden amber. Crowfur's other main features, like his ears, whiskers, pads and tail are also dark. The fur on Crowfur's tail is slightly longer than in the rest of his body, making it long and fluffy. His whiskers are long, thin, and shiny, and have been turning gray along with his round muzzle. His pads are dark brown, almost black, except for a pink toepad on his right hindpaw. His claws are a clear color, semi-long and very sharp.
Personality
 
 
Crowfur is generally a peaceful, talkative tom; however, he does have his days when he becomes a maverick, when he is feeling down and sad. Most of the time, when Crowfur is around others he is pretty much a happy as can be a tom-cat with nothing other on his mind than to share tongues and have fun. He has always been close to his siblings, especially Ashstar - even though the former RiverClan leader had a full agenda, Crowfur managed to find time to pester him.

Crowfur has a deep ingrained hatred regarding twolegs. Due to the events throughout his life, he cannot abide to think of them and their actions. He is not particularly fond of other clans either, particularly ThunderClan and its leader Bloodstar. The bloodthirsty actions of the red-furred tom make Crowfur very wary of any mention of ThunderClan.

In anger or during a fight, Crowfur is a hissing furball of rage. He will do anything to protect his clan and kin, nevermind his advancing age.

The days of Crowfur's warrior duties passed too quickly for his liking; he aged prematurely, in part due to the loss of his extended family, for the sorrow for his departed kin reflected on his own physical self. Nonetheless, the black tom's spirits have risen during the past moons - the birth of Ashstar's kits fills Crowfur's heart with hope for the future.
History
 
Key Dates  
  • Earned the name Crowfur
Full History :
Born to Tallfrost, a RiverClan queen, Sodkit was the sole survivor of the litter due to Greencough. Sodkit lived a rather eventless kithood, at least until the arrival of Tornear, a rogue she-cat, who let her four kits at RiverClan. Greykit, Swifkit, Stripekit and Fogkit were adopted by Tallfrost, and the five kits were raised together as siblings; most of the time, even today, they don't remember who is actually related to who.

Sodkit grew up, and was apprenticed to Blackband, a white cat with a black line running from his black ears all the way down his spine and to his black tail, as Sodpaw. Blackband had black paws, and thus made Sodpaw laugh whenever they went into shadows and all that remained were bits and pieces of Blackband's white fur.

Tragedy hit when, a few days before they would receive their warrior names, Ashpaw went missing. Swiftpaw said twolegs took him, and thus the rising hate for those twolegs grew like a forest fire in Sodpaw. They had hurt his brother, and taken him away. In these days, Sodpaw turned into a maverick. Come his Warrior ceremony, he cheered and was happy to receive the name Sodpelt - this, still, wouldn't change the fact that his closest brother was gone.

Ashpaw, being gone for over six moons, was pronounced dead. At this, Sodpelt became furious. He always told everyone he wasn't dead, he would say he could sense his brother's presence close by somewhere. They all mourned for Ashpaw, but Sodpelt did not: he knew his brother was still alive. The leader, at that time, gave Sodpelt the name Crowfur, perchance to make him a bit happier and join in hunting and patrolling with the rest. The day after he was named Crowfur, Ashpaw returned home.

As Ashpaw became a warrior and eventually grew into the leader of RiverClan, leader, Crowfur's life improved drastically. Born in warring times as he was, peace was still an unfamiliar concept, but no less welcome for it. During that period, his siblings Brokentail and Tigercoat left the clan; the loss meant Crowfur grew even closer to Hawkmoth and Ashstar.

The events of the Markedkit prophecy and the everpresent clash between Bloodstar and Ashstar marked Crowfur profoundly, influencing his view of the world to a darker shade.

At forty moons of age, he became mentor to Granitepaw, and eventually guided her from a rebellious, bitter kit into a balanced young warrior - much to his pride.

The next moons brought a dark period into his life. The Fisher ravaged through RiverClan's ranks, taking his brother Ashstar. That event, together with Leaf-bare cold, almost took the better out of Crowfur, yet he survived to see the next New-leaf. A sharing of tongues with Newheart showed the tom how much sorrow he was harboring, along with anger toward his clan and kin, and thus guided him back on track.

Ashstar's legacy - Needlekit, Heronkit and Featherkit - are symbols of joy and hope in Crowfur's life, even if he is now retired from Warrior duties. However, with cats falling ill around him, he cannot help but worry for the future of RiverClan.

On the fourth day of the Moon of Long Sun, 2008, Crowfur passed away from old age.
