Apprentice:
Berrypaw, while still wild and untamed in personality, had managed to grow into their coat. She's still smaller than most of her peers, which in combination with her black fur makes the she-cat rather hard to spot. With their newfound age and growth they've finally started to match their once rather large paws, looking far more proportional. Plus it makes sneaking around much easier now that she isn't tripping over nothing.

Kithood:
Berrykit is a ball of black fur parading as a kitten. Fluff and fur grow haphazardly in every direction, refusing to be groomed down despite the best efforts of those around her. Round and short the little shadow has yet to grow into her large paws. Pale green eyes are the only real spot of color anyone on her body.

While one day she'll grow out of her awkward kitten phase, for now she stands out in the nursery as an unkempt little kit.

Aspenfleck and Crowschreech did not intend to have another litter. Their firstborns were long grown. And yet one day Rainstorm delivered the news, the two would be parents once more.

The labor was easier this time. Aspenfleck knew what to expect. It didn't take long for first and only kit to make their grand appearance into the world.

The little black she-cat took in a deep first breath, then wailed.

"That's good! Mean's she's got healthy lungs." Rainstorm smiled, turning to let Crowscreech know the first kit was here. She already knew, having heard the kit from outside the nursery

Once the she-cat had settled down and began to nurse, her parents picked a name. Berrykit. They imagined she'd be as sweet as her name, a lovely little daughter to round out their family. 

They were wrong. Rather than sweet Berrykit proved tart.

Easily bored and with no littermates to bother, Berrykit wasted no time in testing rules and boundaries before immediately breaking both. She'd barely learned to walk before attempting to escape from the camp.

Their favorite pastimes were tackling elders and tripping up busy warriors. Moments of quiet in the nursery quickly turned to dread since it meant she was up to something. 

Despite the best efforts of their parents Berrykit has showed no signs of stopping, and if anything has found a partner in crime in fellow nursery resident, Avenskit.

Not long after her friend Avenspaw became an apprentice, Berrykit's attempt to play a prank on his father and Ridgeclan's leader, Mushroomstar, ended with the kit upset and vowing revenge.

And not long after Berrypaw was apprenticed to Juniperbelly.

Pre-Plotting: Berrypaw is the daughter of Aspenfleck and Crowscreech. She is the younger sibling of Toadfeather, deputy of Ridgeclan, and Lavendergaze, future oracle. The family adoption ad can be found here. 

As of now she does not fall into any of Ridgeclan's plot views. They are simply to young to have an opinion on what happened long before their birth. 

Family:  Berrykpaw loves her family, and loves messing with them even more. She understands why they try to rein her in but finds it funny to ignore their every attempt to make a proper warrior of her. 

Friends: Their closest friend is Avenspaw, a fellow trouble maker.
Romance: Berrypaw will be part of a young lovers plot as she gets older. 
Rivals: As far as the apprentice is concerned her greatest rival of all is Mushroomstar himself, who dared try and punish her for her schemes. Berrypaw plots their revenge.
