Thundersight is the hard-working medic of HorizonClan. Since the death of her sister, Thundersight has buried herself in her work. She is a good cat in short, which she also is. Short, I mean.

## Appearance & Personality

### Appearance

   A shorter molly with thick, fluffy fur, Thundersight looks like the storms she was named for. Her fur is dark gray, with black on her ear and tail tips. Darker gray takes up most of her tail as well as colors all four paws, with black toes on the front two. Black freckles dot her face, highlighting her pale green eyes.

### Personality

Thundersight, though quite stressed at the moment due to being HorizonClan’s only medic, is generally a sweet-tempered and level-headed cat. She will be snappish if questioned or if someone tries to do anything AMA, but in her downtime Thundersight is a friendly cat. She doesn’t laugh a lot and isn’t much of a jokester, but she does appreciate humorous cats. She has been quiet since the loss of her sister, but she still smiles and tries to make the best of it.

## Background

### Kithood

Thunderkit was born in HorizonClan to a queen named Rainsmudge. The birth went badly, leaving Rainsmudge dead but Thunderkit and her sister Lightningkit alive, if only barely.

Thunderkit and Lightningkit were given to another queen, Magnoliasweep, to foster, but their dad Shiverslip primarily raised them. He was very active in his kits' lives and was a very good father to them. He did his best to foster a relationship not just between the two of them, but also with the other kits in the nursery. There were two litters of three that were older than Thunderkit and her sister. The older litter, made up of Poppykit, Ashkit, and Leafkit, were two moons older than Shiverslip's kits and their mother was Magnoliasweep. The other litter, Silkkit, Snowkit, and Sablekit, were only a half a moon older than Thunderkit and Lightningkit.

The kits eventually split into two main groups, with one made up of Ashkit, Leafkit, Sablekit, and Lightningkit and the other made up of Silkkit, Snowkit, Poppykit, and Thunderkit. There was of course overlap between the two groups, but most of the time that was how they divided up. At least, that's how it worked until Thunderkit and Silkkit got in a fight. More on that later.

When Thunderkit was two moons old, a kit named Strikekit was born. He was very cute, but he didn't interest Thunderkit very much until he opened his eyes. There was something odd about them - they were crossed. Thunderkit was intrigued by this, but wasn't allowed to investigate too much because of his parents and Thawsun, the medic.

Speaking of medics, later that moon Silkkit mentioned that she wanted to be the medic apprentice. Thunderkit was dismayed to hear this, as she wanted to be the medic apprentice and, since there was only one medic, only one of them could get the role. They ended up getting in a big fight and Silkkit started hanging out with the other clique a lot more. Thunderkit missed her friend a lot, but Silkkit was stubborn and Thunderkit knew when she wasn't wanted.

### Trivia

* Her mother's name was originally Icynight, but I like that name way too much to let her die so quickly. If anyone wants to use the name Icynight it's all yours.
* Thundersight struggles with anxiety and insomnia
* Thundersight keeps a bat in her den as a therapy pet kinda thing. The bat can barely fly and mostly just clings to her. Thundersight named him Bug, because she really couldn't think of anything better in the moment and unfortunately for the bat, it just kind of stuck. She loves Bug though.
