## Overview

Harmony is a former BloodClan healer and a former power cat.

### Former Power

Harmony is a former power cat who used to have the ability to make flowers spew pollen. They could come out in large explosions of yellow, or a tiny puff. It's a part of why she has such a deep bond with flowers.

### Appearance

Harmony is a very small cat with round features. She's generally pretty stubby and a little bit chubby, but it just makes her all the more huggable. Her white fur is soft and has a very plush texture to it and the only marking is a large amber/golden spot that covers most of her back. She's got bright green eyes that just look happy. Her collar is white with a vintage floral pattern of pink, purple, and yellow colouring and a tiny rip in it from where her bell used to hang

## Detailed History

### Kittypet Life

Harmony was born a kittypet in an animal shelter and adopted by a twoleg with quite the enthusiasm for flowers, that enthusiasm bled into Harmony by accossiation. She loved the bright and colourful blossoms and was happy with her life for a time. However, one day as she was wandering the twolegplace, she encountered a young cat named Underpaw. He was a former ThunderClan cat and he told her of the clans. She began to imagine what kinds of amazing things could be in the wild, and so, she left her twoleg. Wandering into the forest to explore the world.

### Striking out Alone

Harmony soon discovered that life in the forest was not as simple as she had assumed, but she was determined to give it a chance. She taught herself how to make do with what she could find and while she wasn't exactly successful for a while, she eventually started to figure it out. Specifically thanks to the help of some friendly cats. BloodClanners.

Her first encounter with a BloodClan cat was with a warrior names Leggy, who she became fast friends with. He told her of current events with the clans and she became fascinated with their way of life. The second BloodClanner she met however, was one much more vital to her move into the forest. She had met Emperor, going by Rushstrike at the time, the leader of BloodClan. He gave her a pointer or two about surviving in the wild, for one, getting rid of her collar's bell. She was hesitant to get rid of it, always having found it to be a very cheerful jingle, but she did. Not soon after her meeting with Emperor, she decided to join the clan.

### Joining BloodClan

Harmony joined BloodClan just in time to miss its humiliating defeat to RiverClan in the war with Whitestar. She felt as if she'd already let her new Clan down by not having been there to help. That feeling was soon wiped away when she was chosen by Emperor to train under Shelltiger, then known as Shellswirl, to be BloodClan's new healer. She built off her prior knowledge of flowers and plants to become a surprisingly competent healer.

### First Apprentice

With her training finally finished with Shelltiger, Harmony needed to choose an apprentice, but she was still pretty fresh out of training, so she elected to put it off for a while. Eventually though, Emperor urged her to choose one, so she began the search for the perfect healer buddy. When speaking with a warrior named Ponderosa, she decided that he fit pretty good. She asked if he'd like to join her as a healer and he accepted. Harmony wasn't the greatest of teachers, but she tried her hardest to relay the knowledge she had.

### Moving Territories

Harmony was with the rest of BloodClan, staying isolated from the clans after their defeat, when a clan cat came to relay the dangers the territories were in. The clans began their journey to new lands, Harmony helping to carry the BloodClan deputy's kits, though her small stature didn't allow her to assist as much as she would've liked. The clans camped out on the beach until they sorted out their new territories, BloodClan eventually settling down in an abandoned subway.

### The Pit Fights

With BloodClan now settled into their new territory, Emperor set in place the rule that any cats caught trespassing on their lands would be imprisoned. Harmony was never one to uphold the policy, not liking such an unforgiving rule and not knowing how to fight regardless. It was during this time that she began to meet and befriend various cats outside of BloodClan, getting to know the clans better than when the clan was in isolation. Her good times were cut short when she realized that Nutpaw, one of her friends, had been captured by BloodClan. She was horrified when the first pit battle occurred. Starved, exhausted prisoners being forced to fight for their freedom. Harmony did her best to help the prisoners with prey and herbs, but it became apparent that she couldn’t do much more, Emperor becoming more ruthless by the day. In response to BloodClan’s kidnapping of SkyClan warriors and apprentices, Ivystar set into motion her own plans to imprison any trespassers or warriors of SkyClan that stand against her. It was with this new development that Harmony lost her healer buddy. Ponderosa was taken prisoner by SkyClan, then disappearing not long after.

### Dark Forest Imprisonment

Things calmed a bit in the clans, but soon came another event. Harmony was transported to the dark forest by Sleetspider alongside the rest of the clans’ highranks. They discussed how to get out, Harmony not contributing much until she noticed Ivystar. Upon seeing the SkyClan leader, she felt an emotion that she had very little experience with. Anger. She began to yell at Ivystar for taking Ponderosa from her. She felt bad when she calmed down, but she’d said what she’d said. The highranks couldn’t figure out a way to escape, so instead, they elected to sit tight until they could.

Harmony didn’t enjoy her time in the dark forest, it was dead and rotting without a single flower in sight. The thing that somewhat salvaged her experience was her interactions with other highranks. She became particularly close to Chill, the stoneteller at the time, and the two eventually found their way out of their prison together.

### Lunarstar's Takeover

Harmony returned to BloodClan only to find it under the control of Lunarstar. Lunarstar had been corrupted by her time imprisoned in the dark forest and had taken over the forest upon her return to the real world, bringing an army of dark forest cats to secure her rule. Harmony wanted to put a stop to Lunarstar’s reign, seeing the harm she was doing, but she couldn’t do much about it, as always. Cats far more capable than her had tried to put a stop to the dictator, and they’d been executed quite brutally. So Harmony just did her best to take care of her own clan, in both her duties as a healer and as a force of optimism in the otherwise dark time. It was draining, but it was all that she could do. Just holding out until the clans rose up to put a stop to Lunarstar.
