Peachflare

Peachflare is a ThunderClan power cat with the power of scorching blades.

### Personality

Peach is a sassy tom with a big heart for his clan. Peach can get distracted a bit easily and can be very stubborn when he doesn’t get what he wants. Although he tries his best to be the good son that Lilystream and Fever always wanted. Peach likes to support his clan whenever he can and doesn’t quite understand that rogues, like his other father, are looked down upon. He thinks all cats are equal to one another because in the end, every cat is the same on the inside. He likes to impress others and can go to great lengths to do so. He can get a bit jealous but tries to be fair to others and he adores his family.

## Power

### Power Details:

This power allows the user to turn their body into varying sizes of crystal-like shards/blades that are able to light on fire and maintain heat. They are able to make their body into this material and also grow sharp, iridescent shards from any part of their body. They have a fire/heat cavity inside of their mouth, throat, and chest. Because they have this cavity, they are able to sharpen their body with their mouth and light their body parts on fire and this material is able to maintain the heat (this includes their mouth), often making their limbs glow red.

This fire cavity is able to maintain heat the most efficiently out of the user’s body parts. The body parts will glow brighter and brighter the more they sharpen and light their limbs. While the user is able to make their body parts glow with heat, it takes a couple more strikes to make their body parts become engulfed in flames. This power is similar to lighting flint and steel where sparks come off to create fire or create enough heat to produce fire.

If the user eats something hot enough like lava from Tribe’s volcano, they can instantly light themselves on fire and their entire body will glow red hot. While in their crystal blade form (or their hardened form) they are immune to fire or anything hot. The user is able to revert to normal and to crystal as they please but reverting to crystal is harder than reverting to normal.

### Drawbacks:

The user is only able to light their body on fire if they change their mouth to this material, meaning they can’t light and heat themselves if they are normal. It will take time for the user to create these crystal shards as well as change their body into this material and this can be mastered with more practice and as they get older. If the user is wet (such as when it is raining or they jump into the river) or cold it will be EXTREMELY hard to heat and ignite themselves, if they do manage to light themselves the heat and/or fire will die down quickly due to rapid cooling.

While they can light their body parts on fire, these limbs will slowly harden and coat into a different material over time which will put the fire out if they do have flames on them. The material is fuel for the fire and when the limbs are completely hardened the user cannot light their limbs or mouth on fire (Think of this as fire to a log. The log is the user’s crystal shards and it’s considered the ‘fuel’ for the fire. When the log burns up it is considered charcoal and cannot be relit. The hardened shards are the ‘charcoal’ in this case).

They are unable to maintain this heat in their limbs or other body parts if they can’t heat/sharpen them. They must re-sharpen their limbs (which will shave off the hardened material and isn’t painful) with their mouth to restore their blades back to its original property. The user can forcefully break off these hardened blades to grow new blades but this is a painful process depending on how big the shards are. The user can also shed these crystals willingly so they can regrow new shards/blades (Which is much less painful in comparison) but this takes more time as opposed to breaking these shards forcefully off.

Others can also break these shards off if they are forceful enough (Depending on the stage/material of the blades) but risk cutting themselves on these hardened shards. These crystal-like blades are more or less the user’s “lifeforce” so breaking them off will make them weaker and will cause them pain. Trying to constantly grow these shards will be harder and harder if they do it continuously and within short periods of time. This will also make them more tired as well as sluggish. When this material is not hardened and in its ignitable form the shards will be easier to break off, making it easier to weaken and cause pain to the user. The user’s regular anatomy (i.e. legs, paws, tail, ears, etc.) cannot be broken off, only the shards protruding from their body.

When Peach is inexperienced with this power, they will have a hard time controlling the crystals’ growth and how big or small they get. When they get more experienced it will be easier and they will have more control over this. The bigger the crystal the longer it takes to grow. The more crystals that encumber the user’s body the slower they get and the less agile they become.

## Detailed History

### Kithood

Peach, alongside his siblings, Coconut and Kiwi were born to Lilystream a ThunderClan tom and Fever a rogue tom. Peachkit is an adventurous type, wanting to go explore and climb. Because of his curious nature he has gone out of the nursery a few times without permission. He likes to be stealthy about his trips outside and feels a bit guilty when he sneaks out. He has met with Vespidstinger in the ThunderClan nursery and has taken a great liking to the leader. Peach seems to enjoy his company a lot.
