Snowkit was born to Smokeface alongside her sister, Spotkit. The two sisters were very close, even if Snowkit liked to play very rough, not afraid or guilty to draw blood. Snowkit and her sister, the eldest in the nursery, quickly became apprentices, Snowpaw’s mentor being Sweetcloud, a kind she-cat who wouldn’t harm a fly but was a bit of a pushover. Snowpaw often got away with much more than she should, like eating prey while on patrol, harming others- however lightly- during battle training, stealing others’ catches, and many, many other minor but repeated offenses. She was very much a ‘rebel teen’ type, a stark contrast to her lawful, rule-following sister.

Needless to say, this ‘rebel girl’ found her ‘bad boy’ in the form of Boulderpaw, orphaned tom who wasn’t afraid to push around those he needed to get to the top. The two were a mischievous duo, often in trouble, yet never strictly punished. As childhood sweethearts, the clan often swooned over their ‘cute’ relationship. The relationship was more than cute, it was toxic, the two desperate just to show how ‘rebellious’ and ‘bad’ they were to impress the other. Boulderpaw showed Snowpaw his mother and let her in on all their schemes for him to become leader of ThunderClan while his brothers became leaders of WindClan and ShadowClan. Snowpaw, not one to back down, eagerly supported him in this goal.

When Thistlesong, Boulderpaw’s- now Boulderclaw- mother, died, Boulderclaw and Snowshard were quick to train in the Dark Forest to stay in touch with her. To their surprise, the moment Snowshard entered the Dark Forest, it appeared every night after that she awoke in the Place of No Stars. This baffled her and other comrades, as it wasn’t like a Dark Forest cat was bringing her their every night. Then, Boulderclaw revealed to Snowshard a secret he had learned about her mother, Smokeface. She had nine lives, and the ability to walk in StarClan and the Dark Forest when she wanted. He believed Snowshard had inherited a version of her ability. Snowshard felt proud to be so special, and eagerly suggested she and Boulderclaw have kits so they could have that ability too. They had already planned on having kits anyway. So while Boulderclaw killed Furzestep, deputy, and then Poppystar, leader, and became Boulderstar, she gave birth to his kits, Rockkit and Frostkit. Even though they were kits, she brought them to the Dark Forest. To her disappointment, it seemed neither had her ability in any form. Still, she trained them in the Dark Forest relentlessly.

While all seemed to be going well, their plans started to unravel, and Boulderstar was murdered by ShadowClan while ThunderClan stood compliantly by. Snowshard’s life seem to shatter before her as her beloved mate was killed and her clanmated and kits did nothing. As all their evil plans came to an abrupt halt. Still, she persisted, despite her rapidly decreasing mental state. She was going to get away with more before her clan turned on her too.

When Cloudyhawk and Snowshard are on patrol and BoneClan rogues attack Cloudyhawk, Snowshard stands by and watches as he’s murdered. Her clanmates yell at her for this, but she defends herself by saying they stood by and let her wonderful mate get killed. While she tries to stir up conflict between clans, she can’t do anything, as the clans regard her as that ‘crazy she-cat who’s lost her mind’.

Angry and hopeless, one night while dreaming in the Dark Forest, she asks Boulderstar to murder her so she can be with him. She will be more useful, hidden in the shadows of the Dark Forest and haunting the dreams of cats she wants to manipulate. And anyway, she was already in the Dark Forest most of the time, since every time she slept, she dreamed of the Dark Forest. And so she was murdered by her mate, her body left in scratches for her clanmates to discover in the morning.

In the Dark Forest, she quickly got to work. Her son, Rockblaze, named a kit after her, and she visited young Snowkit in her dreams, feeding her lies and teaching her how to fight at such a young age. She also visited the apprentice she had when she was alive, Sheeptail, training and manipulating her as well.

The chaos that erupted from those two was great, from Snowmoon and Tuftfrost’s tactfully planned blackmailing and murders, to Sheeptail and Volefang’s brutal and cold-blooded revenge on Sheeptail’s ex-mate’s family. Snowshard became a prominent and well-known Dark Forest terror by the time of her fading.
