General Description
Spottedfeather is a black-and-white tom with a rather slender build, and green eyes.

History
He was actually born a kittypet, although he keeps this a secret. He left his Twolegs and learned how to survive in the wild before joining the Clan, so he had all of the usual traits of a feral cat. It was later revealed that he met Speckledown, his first love, when he was first in the wilderness, and she taught him most of his skills. However, after she was assualted by Rudy, they drifted apart, and she finally left him when she believed he had sided with Rudy and the other toms in the area.

Most assumed he was simply a rogue. He's been a loyal member of TacoClan for some time now, but almost invisible because of his quiet nature. He was given an apprentice, Breezepaw, the first hint of recognition.

He tends to be strict with the Clan, looking down on those who do not control their apprentices or act with courtesy towards others, but somewhat lax with rogues, since he lived as a rogue himself for a short time. He tends to emphasize with them, rather than view them as dangerous or unstable like many Clan cats do.

He met Fiora on the border again by accident, but after a brief chat he decided to visit once more to collect prey to feed the Clan. He enjoys hunting with her, and they have bonded since discovering that they share kittypet origins, including sharing a den during the blizzard, because he was reluctant to leave her alone.

When the snow melted, he rushed back to camp, only to find that Maelstrom and his rogues had attacked again, devastating the Clan. Filled with guilt over his absence, he realized that he had failed to protect those he cared about yet again, and decided he was not suited for Clan life. He told his apprentice farewell, and told Smokefrost he was leaving for good, before fleeing back to Fiora. They found a den together in Griffin Hill.

Trivia

 * Spottedfeather is often mistaken to be a she-cat from a distance.
 * When nervous, he tends to babble on and use more sophisticated language, a trait that many cats find irritating.
 * He was once known as "Theodore," when he was a kittypet, and Speckledown called him Teddy, up until she found him with Rudy and accused him of being a part of Rudy's thuggish group.
 * His prefix comes from "Spots," which is what Rudy - and later Speckledown - called him. He wears it as a mark of shame, reminding him of his past failures.
 * He left the Clan, but kept his old name to remind him of both of his failures.
