## Backstory

#### Kithood

Pepperkit was born to Basilpool and Canyonmist alongside her brother, Wolfkit. She had a pretty chill kithood. It was probably pretty good at first, in fact, since her mother was pretty popular and her father was the Clan deputy. She existed in naive bliss for the first three moons of her life.

Then the plague happened. Soon before they turned four moons old, Wolfkit fell ill with the sickness and was killed. It probably sucked, because Whitebird and Hazewish were trying to keep their patients isolated - so Pepperkit and her parents probably didn't even get to be with Wolfkit during his final moments. Minkstar died, too, and Canyonstar became MarshClan's leader.

She was kind of sad after that, but she tried to stay positive all the same. She went on a walk with her father once during which he showed her the OrchidClan and FallClan borders. It was pretty sweet.

Ever since then, poor Pepperkit kind of just existed. She got four new denmates - Minkstar's kits, Hollykit, Chaffinchkit, Warrenkit, and Lapwingkit. They were several moons younger than her, though, so she couldn't play with them very much. She was probably pretty lonely without her brother. Poor Pepperkit. I mean, Stonekit also joined the Clan, but he didn't like her. He thought she was boring. So yeah, she didn't really have much to do.

#### Apprenticeship

Pepperpaw became an apprentice with Sparrowbreeze assigned to be her mentor. She would always wake Sparrowbreeze up early in the morning to train. Sparrowbreeze didn't like that, but too bad. She and an older apprentice, Gingerpaw, bonded over their brothers both dying in the plague, and so they became friends and listened to some of Twistwhisker's stories. She went hunting with Rillwing once and they caught a hare, so then she hoped that she‘d wormed her way onto Rillwing's good side, but she didn't exactly know, so she was still kinda scared. Rillwing was scary.

About a moon or two before Pepperpaw finished her training, she and Basilpool were talking about life. They discussed Sparrowbreeze and the other apprentices for a bit. Then Basilpool told her that she and Canyonstar were considering have second litter of kits. Pepperpaw was shocked, but excited to have younger siblings. She decided she'd most likely hang around the nursery lot to bond with her little siblings once they were old enough.

#### Warrior Life

Pepperpaw became a warrior under the name of Pepperdust only a couple of moons after Gingernight moved into the warriors' den. Before long, Sedgekit, Ashkit, and Cricketkit were born. Pepperdust loved them and liked spending time with them and with Basilpool in the nursery.

More coming soon, probably.
