Cherryblossom is a well-groomed, sleek, mostly-white tortoiseshell with pale yellow eyes.
Cherryblossom is a SkyClan warrior that has served under Blazestar's and Orangestar's leaderships. Cherrykit was born to Orangeblossom and Ashenclaw alongside Eggkit, Orchidkit, Glimmerkit, and Owlkit. As an apprentice, Cherrypaw was mentored by Slate, and later she volunteered to go on a journey to find lungwort at the sun-drown place during the yellowcough plague. Shortly after becoming a warrior, Cherryblossom was named by Orangestar as her next deputy following Twitchbolt's resignation. She was demoted due to her inexperience, contributing to the seventh code of the warrior code.
The disgraced princess of SkyClan, with a love life as tangled as brambles and a tongue as sharp as their thorns. Cherryblossom is stunningly confident; she fills up any space she enters and is unapologetic for it. She is notably fickle and vain, as well as a known gossip-monger among SkyClanners. Behind her radiant and powerful facade, she struggles to be vulnerable and kick her habit of sabotaging her own relationships with those she loves. Twice in her childhood, a cat has given their life to save hers: she never wants to be in that position again.
SHE'S GOT A FACE, AND IT'S SO SWEET
It is not her natural features that make Cherryblossom beautiful, but the work she puts into herself. Her patched coat is as polished as a kittypet's, if not a little coarser from her comparatively rugged life. You couldn't catch a claw in a thousand swipes through her pelt with how neatly-groomed she keeps it. Beneath her lovingly-maintained pelt lies the musculature of any clan cat, standing upon well-muscled legs that put her just above the height of the average domestic feline at about 10 inches (25 cm) at the shoulder.

Scars gained:
- Long, straight scars on her flanks, three on the right and one on the left, usually hidden by long fur; from an eagle in the mountains Little Wolf died saving her from
- Bite marks on her lower right foreleg; from a rogue in a border skirmish
- Torn left ear; from Doompaw in a border skirmish
WHAT IF WE PEELED AWAY HER SKIN OFF HER BONES
AND SHE'D REVEAL HERSELF A MONSTER WITHIN
Kithood
Cherrykit is the daughter of Orangeblossom and Ashenclaw, along with Glimmerkit, Eggkit, Orchidkit, and Owlkit. The nursery is extremely crowded, with at least ten kits and three queens in it. She quickly shows a natural aptitude for climbing, as well as a penchant for being bossy and aggressive. She befriends Bobbie's kits, Lupinekit and Crowkit, in the nursery, but has a misunderstanding with Drowsykit that carries into apprenticeship.
She torments Doomkit and Plaguekit as much as they torment her. When Falcon and his siblings are brought into camp, Cherrykit mocks them for smelling of the sewers, which escalates into Cherrykit bullying Falconkit into early warriorhood.
A strange wind picks up, and the weather grows increasingly stormy. Yukio ventures outside without an escort and returns to the nursery injured, exposing Cherrykit to injury for the first time. Later, she befriends Spiderpaw, who shows her how to accessorize. When the winds grow stronger, she shelters in camp with the rest of SkyClan. An entire tree falls onto the nursery, and Snowpaw gives his life to save Butterflytuft, Plaguekit, and Cherrykit from the impact.
AND CELEBRATE IN SIN
Trivia:
- Cherryblossom's coat colors are colorpicked directly from her family. The white and the lightest shade of orange were colorpicked from Orangestar, the darkest shade of orange-red was colorpicked from Hiccup-paw (re-adopted), and the faded black was colorpicked from Ashenclaw's stripes.
- Her name was originally Peachkit, but I was told the prefix was illegal after my litter application was accepted, so I changed her name to Cherrykit.
- As Peachkit, she was originally a dilute tortoiseshell with high white and green eyes, and her original design also had a large marking near her nose and cheeks.
- Her warrior name was always going to be Cherryblossom. If I couldn't use the -blossom suffix, I'd probably go with Cherrycrown or Cherryhawk.
- She's naturally skilled at climbing because I rolled a nat 20 in the discord for a climbing competition when she was a kit!
