## History

Pouncekit was born to Mothblaze and Oakspring in Year 10 along with his siblings Silkkit, Burnetkit, Wolverinekit, and Roachkit. He was apprenticed to Darkwhistle and chased out a rouge on his first patrol. Him and his brother Silkpaw were sought out by their uncle Mintsplash and began training with him as a second mentor in the Dark Forest. The two also bullied their sister Burnetpaw.

In Year 11, Pouncespliter became a warrior along with his 4 remaining siblings. During the GalaxyClan fire him and Wolverinespeckle tried to find their siblings, but failed and had to retreat to safety. He gained some sense regarding his Dark Forest mentor and was horrified by the actions of his brother. The two had a tense argument some time after Silkfur left camp. Pouncesplinter also got Fernheart and Brightstar's daughter Hopepaw as an apprentice. The two of them caught a lizard on their first patrol together.

In Year 12, Pouncesplinter wasn't doing the very best. He was rethinking his life choices and began debating whether to tell Brightstar about him and his brothers Dart Forest training. Despite that he had worn SharpClan about a badger scent, and seemed to have made up with his remaining sister Burnetflicker. Pouncesplinter was proud of her for being chosen as deputy.

In Year 13, Pouncesplinter was doing a lot better. He was given a new apprentice, Hopefern's brother Snippaw as an apprentice and oak leaves by Fernheart. Stoneleaf visited him in his dreams and told him to tell Brightstar about Mintsplash. The two went on a patrol and Pouncesplinter told him that he and Silkfur had trained in the Dark Forest when he was younger and that his brother's actions were influenced by the evil tom. Brightstar thanked him and told him to stay out of there. Pouncesplinter hadn't returned since the fire and seemed to be afraid to go back.

In Year 14, after Brightstar's death, Pouncesplinter confessed to Fernheart about his past training with Mintsplash. Fernheart asked him to take her to the Dark Forest and he agreed. That night, the two cats run into Frecklespot. She taunts the two and Pouncesplinter asks angrily if she knows where Mintsplash is. Frecklespot continues, before Silkfur ambushes Pouncesplinter, getting many good blows on him. He tried to help Fernheart, who was pinned down by Mintsplash after he appeared in the fray. After Snipcloud also appeared and killed Mintsplash for the second time, Pouncesplinter collapsed, weak from his wounds. He later died, and joined the ranks of StarClan, being a good cat despite his messy past.

## Trivia

* Pouncesplinter’s oak leaf accessory mirrors Silkfur’s moth wings accessory with them both being related to their parents names. This also mirrors the fact that Silk and Burnet are types of moths
