Adder

Adder is a dark, shadowy-brown tom with yellow eyes and a slightly twisted muzzle from an old injury on his face.

 * Adder is first mentioned by Rook as the journeying cats come to his stretch of territory. Rook mentions that Adder doesn't like trespassers, and Thistlethorn asks who that is. Rook explains that Adder was one of the rules around where they were, and that the stretch of land was called 'Adder's Fangs' for a reason. Swanpaw boasts that there's probably no Adder at all and that Rook was just trying to scare them off. Nightingale then steps out from the undergrowth, surprised to see so many cats. After a scramble between Rook, Sage, and Thistlethorn, Sootpaw tries to get them to join their group. Nightingale looks interested, but Rook just says that they'll use them, to which Rainwind says that Adder was no different. After the journeying cats convince Rook and his friend, Nightingale, to join them on their journey, they wait until the next day to start through Adder's territory.


 * After they start through Adder's Fangs, Rainwind says that he hopes Adder can be reasoned with. Adder finally meets up with the journeying cats, calling them trespassers, and is no more surprised to see Rook and Nightingale with them. After he threatens them to turn back, Rainwind tries reasoning with Adder, but to no avail. Adder orders Rook and Nightingale over to his side to fight, to which they obey, must to the dismay of the journeying cats.


 * The fight begins, and both Rook and Nightingale attack Adder's cats. Thistlethorn then yowls for the battle to stop, holding up the dead body of Adder, signaling for the fight to end. Adder's cats scramble away, after the feeble attempt of one of his followers to band them back together.
