One of the 'underhanded' tactics Viper was taught, which he still uses to this day, is poisoning his claws before fights. This is not something he encourages among the clan, as the requirement to keep his front claws extended and the discipline to avoid compulsively cleaning them is difficult to learn and could be disastrous if a mistake is made.

- Personality: Although Viper can come across as rather cold and distant, much of the clan at this point has long since realized that he's actually rather sociable -- so long as you approach him. Under his sharp claws and the sometimes underhanded tactics he was taught as a kitten is a highly intelligent, though rather sarcastic, tom with the thin streak of a martyr complex that keeps him constantly on the look out for threats to the cats he leads. He seems to try and keep himself emotionally distant from others but tends to fail -- it's almost certainly a facade he keeps up to avoid anyone realizing that he cares so much more than anyone may think.
Background: Viper's is a rather puzzling story, as his exact origins are unknown. His original name was Cody, and he was taken in by one of the warriors of the clan when he was a few months old -- her name was Viper and she was a solitary, aggressive thing. And so it was a shock to all when she stepped briefly down from her role as a warrior to raise this little tri-colored furball she'd pulled out of a gutter somewhere or something.
Rumors abounded, but Viper raised Cody well and he became just as dangerous as his adoptive mother. A small but fierce warrior who tended to keep to himself, though more open to casual conversation when approached. He never really desired any high ranked role, but the leader had different plans and raised him to the role of Deputy. During his stint as deputy, Viper herself was killed and in her memory he took her name as his own.
