Margarinefur

Description
Margarinefur is a sturdy, long furred pale orange tom with cream paws, muzzle, chest, belly and tail tip. He has dark stripes running along his flank, and darker ears. He has lime green eyes with a blueish tint to them.

Kit
Margarinefur was born as Margarine to kittypet Butter and WillowClan medicine cat Honeyshade along with his sister Nectarspring. His parents were not mates to begin with, but after he was born, began to warm up to the idea. Butter brought the him and his sister to her housefolk, where they were named Margarine and Mimi, respectively. Mimi was renamed to Nectar after Honeyshade.

However in the TwolegPlace, there was a rogue group seeking out cats to join their ranks to take over the Clans - and were taking kittypets and loners forcefully and keeping them imprisoned. When he and his sister were around apprentice age, his mother was captured by the rogue group, known to be a cat that constantly escaped their grasp. Butter was killed, leaving Margarine and Nectar in TwolegPlace alone.

Butter’s housefolk managed to find them, and bring the kits back home. Nectar was taken away, and Margarine was confused and sad as to where his sister went, grieving his mother also. Soon the housefolk brought Nectar back - they’d taken her to the cutter. It was then that their father Honeyshade managed to track them down after moons. Margarine broke the news that Butter was dead, and he brought them back to WillowClan where they were made apprentices.

Apprentice
Margarinepaw was apprenticed to Havenstorm, and the two seemed to clash. Margarinepaw was negotiable and decisive, whereas Havenstorm was very straightforward. This had a bad impact on his training, and it didn’t help that Havenstorm decided to retire partway through the mentorship. Instead, he spent time teaching himself, using prior knowledge and watching other cats hunt, and participating in group practices as much as possible.

His and Nectarpaw’s parentage was kept secret by Honeyshade, who swore them to secrecy, he didn’t want his kits getting exiled because of his mistakes. Honeyshade later retired to the elder’s den, where Margarinepaw and Honeyshade would talk while Margarinepaw did tasks. Another warrior, Flyblaze began to have suspicions about Margarinepaw and his sister.

Flyblaze demanded to know where the apprentices were from, and Honeyshade admitted that he was their father and Butter was their mother. Flyblaze feels betrayed that Honeyshade didn’t admit it earlier, and worries that cats are betraying her. Margarinepaw becomes afraid of her, as she snaps every time he approaches her.

A little while on, a Twoleg fire gets out of control and spreads to the camp, which kills Honeyshade in the process after he sacrificed himself for Flyblaze. Margarinepaw is at vigil for his father, when Flyblaze walks beside him and apologises for the way she acted. He accepts the apology and she mentions that she will be moving to SandClan to become their leader. He wishes her good luck.

Warrior
After becoming Margarinefur, he meets Windywing who takes and interest in him, and the two quickly become mates. They eventually have three kits, two daughters; Embertuft and Smokepelt, and a son; Blazefern. He is on a hunting patrol when SandClan invades WillowClan and his mate is killed. He enters the Clan, questioning what happened when he sees Windywing’s body. He grieves her immensely and is seen in the next chapter sitting vigil for her. He calls his kits into the nursery, where Tricklestream offers her support. He thanks her, and eventually falls into an uneasy sleep with his kits beside him.

Personality
Margarinefur is a decisive cat, willing to make offers and negotiate with others. This can leave him to be a bit too lenient and be taken advantage of easily. He is also responsible and willing to move on from past conflicts easily. However this can give the impression that he’s dismissive and ignorant.
