Vortexstar

Vortexstar, commonly known as VS (formerly known as VF) is the leader of HopeClan, and holds the record for chonkiest cat of all time

Backstory
Vortexstar was born into Hopeclan to his mother, Skystar, leader of the clan. In his kithood, Vortexkit was weak and sickly, often the target for many other kits' pranks and other shenanigans thanks to his squishiness. Vortexkit was driven out of the clan one time, in tears, being stuck in the Forest. A pack of wolves found him, stranded there in the clearing. Vortexkit futily tried to fight them off, only getting extremely wounded. Having no one there to save him, Vortexkit felt resigned to his fate, to be devoured by wolves. However, a mysterious being perhaps sent by starclan whisked him out from there, and left him in shambles back on the steps of HopeClan. This mysterious figure would appear in Vortexkit's dreams again and again for his entire life. When his mother found him all torn up, she rushed him to the medicine cat's den, and revived him back. Feeling sorry for being a sickly and weak cat, Vortexkit swore to become stronger. '

Training hunting under Shadestar, fighting under Pebblestar, and even in the Dark Forest under Drownswipe and EveningClan under Ashstar, Vortexkit-now Vortexfang- quickly gained muscle and power, rising to the position of Deputy in record time. His main virtues were Resilience and Strength.

He fell in love at first sight at his mother's apprentice, Suntail, and became her mate. Vortexfang had 5 kits with her, Thunderpaw, Nightflash, Acornpaw, Shadowpaw, and Eaglepaw. One day, when his mate began to have flashbacks to her biological parents in the Place of No Stars, Vortexfang desperately tried to save her, though he was badly injured in the process. In his catatonic state, his father, Voltstrike was revealed to be a deputy from RiverClan, who was mates with Skystar before they had to run off. When he came to, Vortexfang, along with the help of Daisycloud, Linkclaw, and his own mate, went to The Place of No Stars in order to defeat Suntail's father, Darkshadow.

The episode led Vortexfang to question his own identity within the clan, and led him to go on a soliloquy in the Forest in order to find out the true meaning behind his cloudy and mysterious past. Later, Vortexfang confronted his mother, who revealed the truth to him and Echoheart. Vortexfang learned the true story of why his mother had to leave her mate, along with his true identity and place within the clan.

Eventually, he ascended to become leader of HopeClan, being renamed as “Vortexstar”

Appearance
Vortexstar currently is a massive, muscular black tom, with deep golden eyes, and a mane of fur resembling a tiger's. His tail is slightly bushy, but not too much. He has a slight cut in his left ear, and a long visible scar vertically down his left eye. As a kit, Vortexkit was small and sickly, with very fuzzy fur.
