History
Amberkit was born to Leafstem and Thornfire when ThunderClan was very small, and there was no such thing as a medicine cat. Her father was deputy, her mother was a warrior, and her half-sister Moonpaw was training under the warrior Snowclaw. Amberkit’s sister was a fluffy yellow mound of fur named Sunkit, and her brother was a pale brown tom named Elderkit.

Right before the three kits were going to become apprentices, Elderkit died of greencough in the same epidemic that killed the deputy and Amberkit’s father, Thornfire. Amberkit wished there was a way to prevent illness, a cat to heal….

At her apprentice ceremony, Amberkit announced to the Clan she was not going to be a warrior, but a medicine cat. ThunderClan was surprised and appalled that she didn’t want to be a warrior, but they all understood how useful it would be to have a healer.

Amberpaw trained hard. She did not have a mentor, but learned what every plant in the forest was and their use to cats. Amberpaw named new herbs she had never seen before, and she found the Moonstone.

The apprentice was walking alone along WindClan territory near dusk when she noticed a huge gaping hole in the side of the mountain. She went inside and found her way down the corriders and soon to the Moonstone itself.

She pressed her nose against it, and that was when StarClan themselves gave Amberpaw her full medicine cat name, Ambershine.

Ambershine went on to come up with an efficient way to help birth kits, and she tested it out first on her sister, Sunmist, when she had her kits, Brightkit and Emberkit, one of them soon to be Ambershine’s apprentice.

Soon the idea of medicine cats spread and since Ambershine was the only full one, at one point she trained three apprentices, Emberpaw, Featherpaw, and Wavepaw; Featherpaw and Wavepaw of different Clans. But before thye became full medicine cats, a RiverClan warrior with a knowledge of herbs named Blossomleaf decided to become a medicine cat, taking on Wavepaw, and Featherpaw decided she wanted to be a WindClan warrior, not medicine cat.

Emberpaw became Emberleaf, and before long they trained another apprentice, Creampaw, who discovered her true path as a medicine cat after spending two long moons there with a broken leg.

Creampaw became Creampetal, the third medicine cat of ThunderClan.
