•Personality•Geckokit is one of the more patient and understanding of the kits currently in the nursery. He is often found studying plants or helping the medicine cat organise their herbs rather than fighting or playing with the other kits. He's jumpy and naive, getting upset quickly when the other kits and/or Apprentices tease him. His short legs, flat face, and odd way of talking doesn't help his case either.
Geckokit has a tendency to zone out and accidentally ignore what cats are saying to him. This has gotten him into trouble many, many times. He's also a dreamer, his heart always set on the fact he may become a medicine cat one day and be able to heal his clanmates better than he did his mother and sister.
•secrets•Geckokit is often a lot sadder than he looks, able to hide it well. He blames himself for the death of his sister and mother and for not finding help sooner, nightmares of both their deaths seemingly always intermingling with his other more vivid dreams.

•Strengths•He'll be a strong hunter, his short legs allowing him to balance on the hot sand. He's fast and calm, patient.
•weaknesses•Although Geckokits calm and patient nature would be great for hunting, it would weaken him in battle. He's often jumpy and shy, hiding behind bigger cats instead of fighting with the other kits; causing them to tease him almost relentlessly.

•History••his first moon• After Geckokits birth he was immediately thrown into a world of avading two-leg capture and scavenging for scraps of food among two-leg mess, his lack of nutrients and sufficient milk during this time led to growth defects such as his short legs and tail. His mother had pushed him and his sister, poppy, on and on, through miles and miles of two-leg houses before Poppy collapsed. She had died curled up next to him, although his mother did not seem to care, only leaving her body to rot as she pushed them forward.
•his second moon•Geckokits second moon wasn't much better than his first, his mother still insisting that they continue on. He had started to notice a strange look in her eye, as if she wasn't quite there anymore; constantly muttering about 'lush green forests' and that 'one day they'll live in peace'
during this time Geckokit had grown weaker and weaker, fearing he would soon be joining his sister. Soon after they had entered another unfamiliar two-leg colony Lizard collapsed, becoming gravely ill. Geckokit cared for and treated his mother to the best of his ability, teaching himself how to use basic herbs. He matured quickly, although he was young and his efforts were never going to be enough. Lizard died less than a week later; leaving him alone.
•his third moon•Geckokit was so distraught by this point he had hardly noticed when the two-legs came for him with their spider-web like hoops and rough paws, only drawn back from his thoughts by the stench of their monster and the vibration of cold flooring under his paws as they drove him off to The cold-place. He didn't notice as they muttered and whispered about him in their strange language, only mourning for his lost family as they prodded and poked, stretched and stroked him.
He had only just woken up from his slump when he heard the squeaking of doors opening and footsteps dashing towards his self-proclaimed prison. The two-leg kittens had dragged him out by his tail, squeezing and patting his head roughly. Needless to say that Geckokit lashed out, his new claws lashing against the two-legs face, causing it to wail with the most hideous of noises. After that he was taken away by a less friendly batch of two-legs, to a place were there was more shouting than anything. All Geckokit can remember from that time was being snatched up by another two-leg and rushed out of the cold-place, settled down by a warm two-leg controlled fire before he had even had a chance to register anything.
•his fourth moon•He had lived with his new two legs for what seemed like an age to him, although it was merely a moon, when he was lifted from his dozing and placed gently into a cold brown box, his only view from it a few dotted holes in the side. When it was opened we was somewhere new, somewhere that smelt of dust and old wood, with the faces he had become so familiar with no where to be seen. instead there was a new face, one less smooth and more the complexion of a dried out prune. Although geckokit was scared, she was kind and never layed a paw to hurt him.
•half a moon later •He had started to enjoy his new life when he woke up one day to find his owner unmoving, her usually rosy face now pale and unseeing. The two legs came a week later, taking away his only friends body and leaving him. His soft sleeping spot had been taken away and the warm fire put out, leaving him once again utterly alone.
Geckokit went through the next phase of his life in a daze, being moved here and there, from one two-leg nest to another, never being allowed to stay in one place before he finally ended up somewhere hot, somewhere humid. Somewhere he felt was calling him,
the desert. Geckokit had never liked the summer or especially hot places, but this time if felt like it was calling him.
It didn't take long for him to stumble upon the mirage. Starving and dehydrated he had collapsed into the camp that, unknown to him, would become his home for the rest of his life.

•Other•He can be rude at times, although he doesn't seem to realise he's being rude. He is often blunt, calling people out without remorse as he thinks fit, unable to hold secrets even if his life depended on it. He was named after his bright green eyes, and his mother, Lizard.
Geckokit oftens gets strange and vivid dreams, causing him to wake up screaming more than once. He hasn't told anyone in fear of being made fun of even more, passing them off as nightmares.
