Exclamation Willowfreeze

A picturesque fairytale, Willowfreeze's days were spent in the company of a similarly-aged tom (who'd become Mountain--. As of RN, he doesn't have an owner so his info is subject to be changed!) She was deeply in love, enchanted by his looks and rougher exterior, and she was quick to fall pregnant.

Then he left, and her world shattered. Unlike many mothers who'd become closer to her children, her pain from losing her mate turned to anger - directed at the kits. As she became close to kitting, she spent her days out in the forest more - deliberately so when she did kit, she could abandon them to the elements. They had ruin her life; she would not let them continue to bog her down. Maybe without them, she could have Mountain again...

The kits came, and with them a difficult and lonely birthing process. The blood attracted a nearby fox and she barely managed to escape, believing the kits left behind to be dead. Unfortunately for her, a nearby patrol caught whiff of the blood and fox and went to investigate. Though most of the kits did not survive the fox attack, they managed to save at least one - who'd go on to become Bumblestar's Wolfpaw.

Willowfreeze played off her loss as a miscarriage, and before returning to camp made sure to carefully clean herself from blood. She was aware of the survivor(s) but kept a cold distance, telling herself that now she could be with Mountain again. The once optimistic cat was dead, replaced with a jaded lady who wanted nothing more than her rugged husband back. He never did come, and her resentment toward the surviving kit(s) has only grown.

However, like many ThunderClan cats she has noticed how attached to Wolfpaw Bumblestar is, and is considering how to use that to her advantage. Even if it doesn't get her Mountainbeau back, an elevated status in the Clan could be favorable...



This is my rough concept of Willowfreeze, a ThunderClan lady who was ditched by a partner she loved dearly. Instead of caring for their kits, she grew to hate them, believing he left because of their existence. Her attempts of killing them only somewhat worked thanks to Meddling Kids(TM) and didn't bring Mountain back, and present-day she's starting to see one of their relationships as an opportunity to gain power within ThunderClan.

You do not need to use this when applying, and can alter the character as you see fit. The last attempt at adopting her more people wanted Mountain, so I figured adding some spice to her might give her more attention. I'm not terribly interested in soft, squishy cats who would have never abandoned Wolf, etc since I don't think that makes much sense. Wolfpaw doesn't know his biological family, the only parent he recognizes is Bumblestar.



Basic information you should know:

This is the design meant for Willowfreeze. Using it is optional, but minimally she needs to look similar to Wolfpaw.

Willowfreeze is around 26 moons old. She had Wolfpaw roughly 11 moons ago as of posting this.

She is in ThunderClan currently but that is subject to change if you acquire ownership.

She must be AFAB, but I don't care what her current identity is. You can keep it, change it, doesn't matter to me.

If you do use the design and you go inactive with Willowfreeze (e.g. you shelf her, she goes missing indefinitely.. etc.), I do have the right to take the design back as I purchased it from @Shade. If it comes to this, I may also revoke her relationship to Wolfpaw since I'm interested in being able to do plots with them.



Answer the following to apply:
  • How do you plan on handling her estranged relationship with Wolfpaw?

  • Once Mountain's roleplayer is established, do you plan on pursuing their old flame?

  • Do you have any other plot ideas for Willowfreeze?

  • What would you change about her, if anything?

  • If you no longer have time for Willowfreeze, do you agree to return her to me for rehoming purposes?
Please avoid placeholders. My last thread got flooded with them and most haven't been edited to have actual applications, so I'd prefer to not have a repeat
