male : 62 moons : loner : bisexual
Appearance: {handsome ginger tom with vitiligo markings and heterochromatic eyes}
Ember is a large, purebred Maine Coon tomcat with silky ginger fur that once had faint stripes. However, due to his vitiligo, Ember has many patches where his fur has begun to lighten and even turn completely white in some spots. The white on his pelt is more abundant on his tail, lower back, hind legs and head. Ember also has a long stripe of white(normal white spotting) that stretches from under his chin to his underbelly. Due to his condition his white underbelly has begun to spread upwards and turn his ginger fur lighter over his lifetime. His front paws are also white. Ember also sports heterochromatic eyes; his left eye is blue and his right is green. Additionally, Ember has several nicks in his ears and many scars across his entire body. His most prominent scar is a long one across the bridge of his muzzle.

Personality:
{briefly; Aggressive, Solidary, Loyal, Intelligent}
Ember has never been known as nice or easy to get along with, he rather prefers to stay away from everyone and can get very aggressive if he is approached with unknown intentions. However, if he grows to learn about someone and understands their intentions he can grow very fond of others. When he does grow close he can be fiercely loyal and extremely protective. However, he often doesn't grow close to anyone because of his solitary nature. Ember prefers to live alone and hunt alone, which means that his intelligence has soared from first hand learning.

History:
Ember was born as a kittypet, as a result of a hand-picked breeding by Twolegs. He never knew his father but his mother, Sparks, always held him closer than his siblings. His litter consistes of two sisters, Flash and Treasure. Ember was the prized kitten of his litter because of his pelt, which was perfect to the twoleg breeders. He was told by his mother that the Twolegs would treat him well and use him in what she called 'Cat Shows'. Cinders even said he would one day have beautiful kits of his own. His future excited him.
However, when he reached six moons of age, odd white spots and flecks began to appear all over his pelt day by day. Panicked, his Twolegs took him to the vet for an examination. The vets determined that Ember had a rare genetic mutation called vitiligo that would cause his fur to lighten and eventually turn completely white over his lifetime.
After his return trip from the vet, Ember told his family about his condition. His mother was shocked and worried for his future, while his sisters simply made fun of him. Eventually, his sisters ended up showing signs of the same condition but they weren't as advanced as he was.
After many days of uncertainty, Embers twolegs finally decided what they would do with the odd kitten. They had deemed him and his entire family unbreedable dueto their condition, even though Sparks simply carried the condition and didn't display depigmentation. Their Twolegs took them on a long car ride and dumped the four cats on the side of a busy highway.
Sparks tried her hardest to hunt and provide for her kits, but she soon lost her life to a car on the highway. Ember luckily picked up enough hunting skill to keep him and his siblings alive, the trio eventually decided to abandon the trashy highway area and travel to more abundant lands.
Treasure was the first to die on the very long journey. The trio had split up in a nearby forest to hunt, where Treasure was unfortunately caught by a badger and killed. Flash and Ember buried their sister in a flower field and quickly moved out of the area.
Flash and Ember traveled together for many years. Their travels never brought them to lands they wanted so the pair became nomads, always traveling together for safety. One day they happened upon the Clan lands, right as they had begun to settle in their territories. Flash and Ember normally stayed close to PeakClan's territory but were always careful to stay outside of their borders. They often climbed the mountains to look for prey and sometimes got caught by PeakClan warriors. Their many skirmishes with Clan cats led them to have many scars and a dislike of Clan cats in general. However, the land gave them much prey and a good life for many moons.
When the fire struck, Flash and Ember fled through PeakClan's territory. Ember tried to keep his sister safe, but the she-cat fell behind quickly due to the pregnancy that she had been hiding from him. Flash was killed when a flaming tree fell on top of her. Ember had to move on quickly to save his own life, barely escaping the burning forest on time. He took shelter with a kittypet named Mr. Nakey and a former Clan cat named Swiftleap after he was able to escape. Ember stayed away from the she-cat as much as he could due to his dislike of Clan cats. He stayed there for a few days until his wounds healed and he was able to hunt on his own again.
Once he was able to depart from the kittypet dwellings, Ember looked around the wasted lands for a reliable place to call home at last. His old camp was destroyed and lifeless now, which meant that he could no longer live outside PeakClan's territory. He resorted to staying near Twolegs after searching without success for a half-moon. Prey was scarce due to the season and the recent fire so he was forced to eat Twoleg scraps, though most times he refused to even go near trash cans unless he was starving.
Around the time that the Clans had decided to merge into two Clans, Ember decided to take advantage of an abandoned twoleg nest near Nakey's trailer. Ember is still good friends with Nakey and often visits the tomcat.
