History
History: Descendant of Ambersun.
Foxkit was the second born out of a litter of three, though his youngest littermate was born sickly and didn't survive past a day. His sister, Maplekit, was an incredibly boisterous, hot-headed cat who made Foxkit seem introverted and well behaved in comparison. With her knack for getting herself into trouble, Foxkit soon became the 'good kit' with little effort on his part. Though he usually got along with his sister, she became a model for what he was not supposed to be. This was his starting point for learning how to be his best self--the most likeable version of himself possible. His first friend of many was Waspkit, a cat who has always stuck by him.
Foxpaw was mentored by a young warrior named Spidersong, and their similar temperaments ensured that they got along easily. Impossible to offend and always peppy, Foxpaw gained a large circle of friends. Maplepaw also had a good number of friends, but whenever her temper lead to a falling out with one of them, they would inevitably gravitate to Foxpaw instead. This lead to a one-sided rivalry which Foxpaw pretended to be completely unaware of; he would never admit to not getting along with anyone, let alone his own kin. He pretended not to notice how hard Maplepaw tried to beat him in hunting, fighting, and even running. She was sometimes the better hunter, often the stronger fighter, and almost never a faster runner, but whatever the outcome, Foxpaw was completely unruffled. This frustrated her further and eventually, Maplepaw confronted him in the middle of the camp, accusing him of stealing her friends and using her to make himself look better. He hadn't intended to antagonize his sister, but he couldn't allow her to stain his reputation. Acting bewildered and hurt, it wasn't long before their parents stepped in to defend him and scold his sister. Maplepaw broke down in tears and ran off, never to be seen again.
Foxpaw was genuinely saddened by this turn of events, yet it only made him seem more sympathetic to most of his Clanmates, bettering his standing in the Clan. A fellow apprentice named Blossompaw was an exception to this--though she had been friends with both siblings, she had been very close to Maplepaw and blamed Foxpaw for her disappearance.
Foxpaw earned the name Foxshine for his sunny disposition. He and Blossomflight are still friends, despite her persisting grudge towards him. As a warrior, he continued to expand his social circle as much as possible. He caught Jaystar's eye and was appointed Hearth deputy, a position he has taken up enthusiastically.
