## **History**

### **Post-New Clans**

Claw had been a young tom in the pine undergrowth, living peacefully and blissfully. This peace was shattered when a wolf attacked him mauling him viciously to the point where he could barely move anything. He was saved by a small she-cat named Ebony, who helped bring him back to health and to help him relearn how to hunt. As the day passed, he and Ebony grew closer to the point where they became mates.

Claw and Ebony quickly became parents to Tiger and Soot. Their son Tiger was large, lean, and strong, while Soot was more logical, kind, and caring. Either way, the family lived peacefully until a white tom approached them. He invited them to a "clan," which they accepted for the sake of their kits. As Claw became Clawthroat and Ebony Ebonyfoot, their sons became Tigerpaw and Sootpaw, both apprentices. While their sons lived their lives, Ebonyfoot and Clawthroat had their second litter and the first kit of Pineclan, Shortkit.

Clawthroat was horrified when he was told what happened in the battle with Foamclan and tried to help his son, who had been made a warrior. However, Tigerhawk's shock and guilty prevented him from speaking to anyone, as Clawthroat and Ebonyfoot feared for their son.

### **Dusk Fury**

#### **Fallen Storm**

Clawthroat was able to hold his own against Skyflower fairly. However, as they were retreating, Duskstar ordered him to stop before pouncing on him and brutally killing him.

## **Personality and Relationships**

### **Personality**

Clawthroat is a very calm cat, being nice and polite to all cats who talk to him. While he hadn't been exactly prideful, he was still humbled by the fox attack and focused on taking care of others. Clawthroat is also considerately old and at least still has a while before becoming an elder and focusing on other cats and how he could help them. He is also a dutiful father comforting Sootpaw, helping Tigerhawk, and even in his old age playing with Shortkit.

### **Ebonyfoot**

Ebonyfoot was Clawthroat's mate, a young and small she-cat, found helpless and bleeding Claw. Despite her size, she quickly dragged him to a safer location, seeing what she could do, and was able to stop the bleeding and save his life. The claw would never forget this; believing that he could never repay the debt he owed her, she helped him get used to his injuries, and they became mates. Both are dedicated and are cute elderly couples while still being good parents, having one more kit as they drew closer to elderhood. However, they would never become elder's together after Clawthroat was found dead after a battle with Sparrowclan. Ebonyfoot never recovered from her mates death and decided to retire after Shortkit became an apprentice.
