Personality: His appearance and supposed sternness causes most smaller cats to be afraid of him, assuming he is a mean, scary tom who has an unquenched thirst for pain and blood, which is how he got his huge scar on his back, so the rumors and gossips say. In reality, he is a kind, sympathetic tom towards others. He likes to see the good in cats and despises the times he is forced to look at them a different way. He is merciful with his prey as well, never attacking very young prey or it's parents if they are nearby. He doesn't play with his prey when hunting and allows them to suffer. He is an excellent fighter, but does not see the need to kill his opponents unless absolutely necessary. He often feels like an outcast in his clan, something he got bullied for back when he was younger. Now that he is more grown, big and able to defend himself now, his bullies shirked away and continue to talk about his loner status behind his back. He will defend the weak in any situation, it does not matter what affiliation they are, he shall protect them. He likes cold weather and hates hot weather and badgers
Backstory: Pitch lived happily with his brother and mother. His father was around, but didn't bother to visit much. They also play fought together while their mother watched them in the little den she made underneath a tree. It was a simple life and they enjoyed it like that. They hoped that it would last. This wish unfortunately didn't get to last.
One night as an 8 moon old, a pair of badgers stumbled upon the family and attacked. They were pinned in their little den and had to make a move before the badgers dug their way to the cats. Their mother tells the two that once she leaps out the den, they run the other way and to not look back.They do as they are told and run out. However they turn back once they hear a screech coming from their mother and are stunned to see her limp body in the badger's mouth. The badgers notice the kits and continue to chase after them. Pitch runs the fastest but runs back upon seeing that his brother trips. Before he can reach him, one of the badgers grab the screeching brother and toss him up and claw a big gash into the tiny kit. Pitch is paralyzed as he sees his brother collapse to the ground. He fails to notice the other badger behind him, who drives a deep gash into his back, a gash he still has this day. He is flung into the air and loses consciousness.
He wakes up miraculously due to feeling a rough tongue on his back. The source came from a mysterious tom. Pitch gets the feeling that he should know this cat, but doesn't know why. He looks around in search of his brother and mother. The tom tells them both of them are dead and can no longer be with him anymore. He points over to his brother's body. Pitch comes to it's side and releases tears of grief. The rain washed off the blood on him. The tom carefully picks up Pitch and promises to take him somewhere safe and warm.
Pitch was with this tom for five days and throughout this little time with him, Pitch felt lost, he had no idea what he wanted to do now. One day the tom brings him to a strange place he hasn't seen before. He asks the tom about and he tells him that they are currently in clan territory. Pitch remembers his mother talking of the clans before and how they work in a group in order to survive. The tom brings him further. They run into a patrol and he explains to the cats that he had a lost kitten that he would like to put in the care of the clan. The cats were a bit hesitant to allow an outsider in the clan, but one kind cat agreed to it and took Pitch. Pitch looked back as he was been taken to camp and got a glimpse of the tom. This will be the last time he will see him.
