— LH SOLID BLACK MAINE COON WITH AMBER EYES
✦ references ⋆ slate is a purebred maine coon and is hefty, weighing approximately 20 lbs and standing 14 inches at the shoulder. he has long charcoal-black fur with a rusted underbelly and wisps of tan on the tips of his belly fur. he has amber-colored eyes that are comparable to the flicker of a steady flame. he possesses many scars scattered across his body, namely two across the bridge of his nose, a torn right ear, a long scar along his right eye, bite marks on his neck and shoulder, and deep scarring on his underbelly. slate also has a folded left ear due to an ear mite infestation, which has since been treated by twolegs. descended from show cat parents, his features are quite handsome and sharp.
— healing dislocated hip joint
— ripped right ear
— torn, folded left ear
— right eye scar
— nose scars

Not as fickle with loyalty as he once was. Slate is wholly dedicated to SkyClan now and has shed ties with his rogue past, now considering them to be enemies. Strict about work and duty and tends to occupy himself with tasks to avoid feeling lazy and unproductive.
He is distrustful and suspicious of rogues joining SkyClan ( which makes him a hypocrite, but he considers himself a rare exception ). In fact, Slate is hypocritical in general. Sets standards and criticizes others for not meeting them, yet if he falls short himself then he’ll justify it and will refuse to acknowledge his wrongs. Stubbornly unapologetic but may apologize rarely, begrudgingly.
He knows that he’s unlikable amongst his clanmates but he doesn’t care. Slate tells it like it is, figuring that others need to hear the brutal truth even if they don't like it. He is gruff and awkward socially and lowkey feels lonesome at times ( denies this ).
He’s not very ambitious nor power hungry while being very controlling over everything in his life. Does not care much for hierarchal standing but likes being in charge and gets huffy when things don’t go his way. Insistent that he’s right while everyone else is wrong.
Largely aggressive and has a short temper and would rather get physical than reason, especially if he believes that a cat deserves to be harmed. Has a strong moral code when it comes to killing; does not believe in senseless murder unless a cat has earned it. Renowned for his ferocity in battle.
Is devoted to his loved ones to a fault, placing them on a pedestal and often favoring their opinions over the rest. Extremely protective over them and is capable of exerting a level of softness around them.

[ KITHOOD ]
born to two purebred maine coon parents named rocky and brook alongside his littermates named clover and shale. pampered and doted upon, slate and his siblings were always told that they were highly desired by twolegs and were born to be pets who were admired for their looks. wanting a more fulfilling life for himself, slate ran away from his adopted twolegs to live the life of a "wild cat".
[ THE STREETS / ADOLESCENCE-YOUNG ADULTHOOD ]overwhelmed by the outside world and after nearly being run over by a monster, slate joined up with a pair of rogues and learned street survival skills from them, including how to hunt rats, fight other cats, and outwit predators. they served a rogue group called the blackguards and slate would often help them in completing their missions and bounties.
one day his "mentors", out of selfish desperation, literally threw slate to the hounds as bait. only eight months old, he managed to escape with a few scars and lived on his own from then on. he met a pine colony cat named orange blossom a few months later and began a casual situationship with her, though he stopped seeing her when they began to grow too close.
slate met another rogue named silver and scrapped with him over a mouse, which ended in him nearly taking silver's right eye.
[ 2023 ]
after living in the twolegplace as an aggressive rogue for years, he shows up on skyclan's borders and is vouched for by his brother, cloverjaw. he reunited with silversmoke, refueling a long-standing rivalry from before the creation of the clans. not long after slate joins, he participates in a battle against windclan and witnesses blazestar lose a life.
slate aids a small patrol in driving out a fox from skyclan's territory, though the tip of his right ear is torn off. a murderous rogue named kuiper is put on trial, where slate and several others speak out against his heinous crimes.
weeks after multiple cats have been taken from skyclan's territory by twolegs, silversmoke and slate get into a heated argument and near-altercation before being interrupted by a stray dog. not long after, slate himself is trapped by twolegs and taken away to the shelter.
after a moon spent in the shelter, slate and the other skyclanners are freed and return to camp. in the following meeting, blazestar apprentices howlpaw to slate and promotes him to lead warrior.
an attack from windclan occurs at random, and slate battles a warrior named cygnetstare. they engage in a proper scuffle, and although windclan technically wins the fight, slate has nearly torn her throat out.
slate gets into an argument with bobbie and sweetybee when fantastream brings toy mice into camp. he voices his concerns about the way that skyclan handles joiners, especially kittypet joiners, in a council meeting. unexpectedly, and begrudgingly, slate takes on cherrypaw as his new apprentice.
yellowcough plagues the clans, and when blazestar makes a call for volunteers to embark on a dangerous journey to find the cure, slate offers himself in a perhaps surprising turn of events.
through all of the dangerous and treacherous events that face the journeying cats, slate perseveres. however, he finds himself truly feeling hopeless during the cave-in event, where he has a panic attack and is talked through it by the shadowclan medicine cat apprentice, magpiepaw.
slate saves a windclan apprentice from a badger attack, teaming up with figfeather in the process. he also happens upon the scene of little wolf's death, where he promptly scolds his apprentice cherrypaw for venturing off on her own in the first place.
the journeying group, almost home, is ambushed by dogs and slate freezes out of fear right before being knocked into reality by orangeblossom and milkpaw. utterly flustered from nearly being mauled, slate urged the group to continue on despite there being injured party members. much to his dismay, slate and figfeather are the only skyclanners who return home on time. shortly after, slate breaks the news to blazestar that his former mate and the mother of his kits, little wolf, had been killed on the journey.
slate realizes, after a period of denial, that he still has romantic feelings for orangeblossom.
[ 2024 ] the rogues descend upon skyclan. slate's patrol runs into a rogue, though he kills them in the name of skyclan. he is seriously injured in the process, landing him in the medicine den for a few weeks.
blazestar dies, leaving orangeblossom to take her place as skyclan's leader. he begins sleeping at the entrance of her den, feeling that she could use extra protection. slate's apprentice, cherryblossom, receives her warrior name. after tensions escalate between the daylight warriors of the clan and the small anti-kittypet crowd, orangestar gives her lead warriors a stern reprimanding.
a border patrol is attacked by a pair of foxes, killing orangestar and wounding most of the others. slate received medium-grade injuries, landing him back in the medicine den. once released, orangestar invites him to sleep at the mouth of her den once more.
primrose, one of the newest daylight warriors, confides in slate that she had a littermate with his same name. he confesses that, had his parents birthed a she-kit, he would have had a sister named primrose. this leads to the two realizing that they are, indeed, long-lost siblings.
one night, orangestar shares with him her dream, insisting that she leave for the moonstone at once. as much as slate protests this idea, as rogues and foxes are running rampant around the forest, she embarks anyway. this leaves slate feeling restless and worried, and he takes this out on his clanmates when orangestar fails to return as planned.
after orangestar returns, slate speaks with her in private and confesses his feelings. she reciprocates and they make their relationship official. however, slate decides to step down from lead warrior at her request, as she believes that a conflict of interest would arise otherwise.
slate jumps out in front of an oncoming car and dislocates his hip in order to save his sister, primrose. he lands himself in the medicine den for several weeks.
once he is healed from his hip injury, slate is bestowed a warrior name by orangestar: slatesnarl. a few days later, their two kits are born with orangestar losing a life in the process.
the kits are handed off to butterflytuft once orangestar recovers from birth. -
