History

In the Super Edition Arc

Yellowfang's Secret

Brownkit is born to Newtspeck of ShadowClan, along with his brothers Littlekit and Wetkit. Yellowfang mentions that they had only just been born, and until the current kits were able to be apprenticed, warriors would have to share the duties.

The young kit later awakens Yellowfang in her den, complaining of pain and favoring one of his front legs. Yellowfang discovers that the kit wrenched his shoulder and Brownkit explains that Brokenstar had him training with the other kits and Mosspaw. He expresses his excitement, trying to give a swipe with his injured leg. Yellowfang says he is too young to leave camp, let alone train. Brownkit retorts he is nearly three moons old and that's when Mosspaw was made an apprentice. Brownkit tells Yellowfang she should see Mosspaw's fighting now as he is skilled. Yellowfang reassures she is sure he is, but orders Brownkit to stop training. Brownkit retorts that she isn't the leader, Brokenstar is, and if he says he can train, then Brownkit will. Yellowfang still confines him to camp though until his shoulder heals.

When Brokenstar announces that Mosspaw has died, Brownkit gives a shriek, which quickly turns to excited squeals when Brokenstar announces he wants to commend the kits' bravery by making them apprentices. Brownkit is apprenticed to Stumpytail, taking on the name Brownpaw. Brokenstar announces that he is proud as they have five new apprentices. Afterwards, the apprentices are taken out to see the territory. They do not seem as excited as normal apprentices, although Yellowfang thinks that will soon change when they see how big the territory really is.

Quotes

"Newtspeck had only recently given birth to Wetkit, Littlekit and Brownkit. Until more kits could be apprenticed, the warriors were taking turns performing the duties."

―Yellowfang after Frogtail says he will have to do apprentice duties. ^{Yellowfang's Secret}

Brownkit: "Excuse me, Yellowfang. I’m hurting."

Yellowfang: "Is it a thorn? Let me look. […] How did this happen? What have you been up to?"

^{Yellowfang's Secret}

Brokenstar: "Mosspaw is dead."

Narrator: "Brownkit and Wetkit let out a shriek. [..]"

^{Yellowfang's Secret}

"The new mentors led their apprentices out for the tour of the borders. The little cats weren’t as excited as new apprentices usually were because they had already left the camp to practice their battle moves, but they might be more impressed when they realized how far ShadowClan stretched."

―Narrator about the new apprentices ^{Yellowfang's Secret}
