history: shadowdapple's father was a loner, but had joined flickerclan after proving himself in a duel. due to being technically clanborn, shadowdapple received better treatment than his clanmates, but still constantly had to prove himself as a warrior regardless. this led to relentless training, though shadowdapple had believed this was what was expected of any cat. it wasn't until ghoststar rallied his clanmates that shadowdapple realized he was the exception, not the rule as far as cats with questionable roots. when it mattered most, shadowdapple joined the fight to escape flickerclan. while he and ghoststar often have differing ideas, ghoststar chose him as spiritclan's deputy due to his blunt honesty and prowess as a warrior.
