**Splashpelt** is a splotched brown-and-white she-cat with blue eyes.

## History

Splashkit is born to Mapleheart and Talonstar, but her mother, Mapleheart, dies in childbirth, alongside two of her siblings. Before her death, Mapleheart names Splashkit and asks Talonstar to take care of her. Birdflight brings Splashkit to Copperlight to nurse, and the red-brown she-cat takes on a maternal role to the motherless kit, while Talonstar, too lost in his grief for Mapleheart, neglects her. Splashkit is confused by the lack of a paternal figure in her life, and Shrewfur and Birdflight take to playing with her. Both confront Talonstar about his lack of support to Splashkit, and when a mudslide hits ShadowClan's camp, Talonstar sacrifices one of his lives for Splashkit, throwing her out of harm's way. When he comes back, he apologizes to Splashkit for ignoring her and vows to be a better father.
When Splashpaw becomes an apprentice, Talonstar gives her to his best friend, Shrewfur, to mentor. The father and daughter are on patrol one day when they see a ThunderClan kit being attacked by a badger, and they rescue the kit. Talonstar praises Splashpaw's bravery, but knows she is too young to be made a warrior. Later on, she helps her Clan build a barrier around the flooded stream, and maintains her close relationship with her foster siblings, Runningpaw, Pouncepaw, and Ivypaw. She is especially close to Runningpaw, who she often gets into mischief with. At the same time, she pins after an older warrior named Seedfall, but the brown-and-white tom does not share her affections, since he is already in love with a warrior named Graycloud.
Splashpaw is kidnapped by a rogue named Ajax, who wishes to make Talonstar suffer the same way he did when she tries to catch him to impress her father. Splashpaw is held hostage in his camp, but is not harmed. Talonstar comes to rescue her, but does not attack - instead, he convinces Ajax that what he is doing is wrong, and Ajax lets Splashpaw go. Splashpaw thanks her father and apologizes to him , telling him she will never do anything foolish again.
Later, when Splashpaw rescues Owlfang from drowning in the swollen stream, she is given her warrior name of Splashpelt.
