[Mistletoe]

~Basics~

Name: Mallardstep
Clan/Affiliation: Thunderclan
Gender: Tom
Pronouns: He/Him
Age: 21
Rank: Warrior

~Appearance~
Scars: None
Fur color: He’s a grayish black. He has white front paws and a white muzzle.
Fur length: He has a thin pelt.
Grey hair: None so far!
Eye color: A dark yellow.
Size: He is average sized.

~Personality~
Quick overview: He’s a lazy tom who would rather do nothing than work. He complains often, and is difficult to be around for this reason. Despite this he is fiercely loyal to his clan. He would never leave and can’t imagine doing so even if that requires him to work. He is usually pretty calm. Generally he will avoid anything involving a fight. He is able to step back a view things in a calm light, most of the time. All his hanging about camp has taught him how to be perceptive and figure out a cats emotions by their movements. He isn’t perfect at this, but he can get a general sense of what another cat is feeling. Despite his whiney demeanor he has a big heart. He doesn’t like it when other cats are uncomfortable. He will will generally try to ease this discomfort as much as he can. Aside from complaining less. He will try his hardest to come up with a solution that doesn’t involve work. He doesn’t register this as being kind although it most certainly is. He has low-self esteem. He knows he’s lazy and not very helpful, but doesn’t think he can do anything about it.
Fears: His greatest fear is that his clan will be disbanded after all this unrest. Next to that is a day full of work.
Temperament: He is generally calm and pessimistic. He likes to see different angles of an argument before getting involved, and even then he won’t unless it’s really important.
First impression of them may be: The first impression of him is often correct. That he is lazy and good for nothing. It can be difficult to get to his softer side, and I would think most cats wouldn’t want to put up with his whiney attitude to get to it.
Habits: Hyper analyzing a cat to the point where he dramatizes what’s really going on in his head.
What trait do they look down on other cats for having?: He hates hypocrites and traitors. He generally deals with this by ignoring them.
Worst quality: His laziness. It isn’t becoming of a warrior and certainly isn’t helping the clan he loves.
Best quality: His compassion. Even though it’s buried so deeply even he doesn’t know about it, he does care about the cats in Thunderclan. He doesn’t want them to be uncomfortable or unhappy and will generally put his own stuff on hold to help some cat else.
General outlook on life: He’s thoughtful, though he leans towards the pessimistic side.
Fun facts!: Because of his thin pelt he catches colds very easily in Leaf-bare. Conversely he can stand much more heat than a normal cat in Greenleaf.

~Skills~
Greatest strength: His perceptiveness. He can usually catch most things that happen. This makes him an exceptional look out and a good cat to have on patrol. Although if he focuses on one thing too much he may miss important details.
Greatest weakness: Fighting. Besides the fact that he doesn’t like the idea of hurting other cats. He is generally too slow to do much damage or dodge efficiently.
Intermediate skills ranked best to worst: Hunting. He is patient enough to wait and smart enough to think of good strategies. Gathering herbs. Though not used very often he has a good enough memory to remember what they look and smell like. Building dens. He is ok at weaving and finding materials. Mentoring. If he ever tried he would most likely end up needing his apprentice to wake him up and remind him of his duties.
What are they currently working on: Nothing, it’s a problem.
What skill do they most admire and why: He admires cats who work hard and are good at anything. He does this for the simple reason that he could never work hard to be good at something. At least, he doesn’t believe himself capable.
What skill do they think is unnecessary and why: Swimming. He doesn’t understand why a cat would want to work hard to learn something just so they could do more work.

~Relationships~
Friends: Coming soon!
Best friends: None yet.
Enemies: Birchheart
Cats they don’t like for no reason: Dogbark, because he has to wake Mallardstep up.
Cats they know but aren’t really friends with per say: Leafwind. Moonstep.
Parents: None.
Mentor(s): None.
Cats they want to befriend: None.
Cats they love to pick fights with: Absolutely not! No fighting allowed!
How do they feel about their clan: He likes his clan. Enough to fulfill his duties when asked which is a pretty big deal for him.
How do they feel about their clan mates as a whole?: He generally thinks they’re good cats.
How do their clan mates view them?: Probably not very favorably.

~Backstory~
(No questions just rapid fire what happened to them)
When Mallardstep’s mother died giving birth along with his still born sibling. His father left the clan, devastated and not ready to raise a son on his own. Mallardkit grew up without any cat to look after him. He cursed the name of his father and swore loyalty to Thunderclan. He at least would never leave! He mostly stayed inside during his kithood. He was born in leaffall and most of his kithood was spent in leaf-bear. With his pelt still growing and thin he didn’t want to play in the cold. This meant he didn’t have very many friends either. He went into his apprenticeship without learning many important social skills, which is why he is so rude to this day, and having already built up a barrier around himself. His mentor took pity on the young tom and didn’t push him too hard. Despite being intelligent Mallardpaw became lazy and didn’t learn what he didn’t want too. Which was basically nothing. Certain things were drilled into him like the warrior code and how to hunt. He learned to be perceptive in his own time. Something good did come out of his apprenticeship, however. The loyalty he had sworn to as a kit grew into something all his own as he watched his clan crumble around him. He doesn’t want to see Thunderclan fall, but if it does then by Starclan he’ll go down with it!

~Backstory~
(No questions just rapid fire what happened to them)

Lavendersnap had an easy kithood. Surrounded by playmates, loving parents, and a clan that took care of her. She grew up happy and content. Her apprenticeship was much the same. She continued to be friends with her kithood besties as they trained and learned together. She picked up the skills of hunting much faster than fighting and became a great provider for her clan, able to hunt in the fiercest of leaf bare’s. She gained her warrior name on time at twelve moons and started her warrior life with much excitement. Nothing but tragedy followed. Her parents died before their time. She was wounded deeply by this loss and it followed her through her young warrior moons. Her mentor died when she was around 20 moons. She gently refused to train many apprentices while she was mourning them. She became quieter and solemn. She was never able to get over this loss. During her moons as a senior warrior many cats of her generation passed away, leaving her the only survivor. Much more deeply wounded now her senior warrior days were haunted by the shadow of the cats she has lost. She never tried to push forward and for this reason she never found a mate or trained an apprentice. However, the peace and quiet of being the only elder in her clan has given her the time she needed to step away from clan life and start to heal. She is much more content now and while she still carries those she loves in her heart she is ready to start to support her clan again. After four quiet moons of being retired she is reentering clan life. She wants to be there for her clanmates who have had a ruff time. To support them and give them a kind peaceful place to come and get away from the whirlwind of clan life and heal. She knows she’s not very wise so won’t be able to advise the Windclan higher ups or much of anyone. However, she hopes by listening and brightening up her clanmate’s lives she can continue to help and serve her clan.

~Personality~
Quick overview:
Dragonflyfrond is a nervous wreck. He has terrible anxiety that is constantly following him wherever he goes. He is constantly doubting himself even when he knows there is no reason to. He puts himself down and the cats around him on a pedestal. When he isn’t being nervous he’s sweet and easy to talk to. Gentle and a good listener he always supports his friends even if he won’t always speak up. Around cats he knows and trusts he tends to make kit-like gestures.

He’s actually very agile and graceful. This comes in handy when hunting, swimming, and even dodging an attack.
Greatest weakness:
Look out. He just becomes too nervous about an attack and stops being able to effectively survey the area.
Intermediate skills ranked best to worst:
Hunting. Swimming. Dodging. For reasons already explained. Kit sitting. He is patient and loves to look after kits. Mentoring. Once he gets past his self deprecating nature he has a lot to teach, and the patients and understanding to do so effectively. Den repairing. He doesn’t have a lot of experience in this field and is probably worked up about whatever broke the dens to begin with. Landing blows. He just doesn’t want to hurt any cat. He also isn’t very powerful so he usually won’t be very effective even if he can land a blow.
What are they currently working on:
Mentoring. He recently got an apprentice and wants to do right by them.

~Backstory~
(No questions just rapid fire what happened to them)

Dragonflyfrond was born the single kit of two brave and successful warriors. His kithood was spent with high expectations for his apprenticeship. He was very excited to start and prove he was worthy of the expectations placed on him. Early in his apprenticeship, however, both his parents died in battle. This was coupled with his mentor realizing he wasn’t nearly as skilled as his parents. His mentor was strict on him demanding nothing but perfection. Grief-stricken and struggling under the weight of his mentor’s expectations he turned in on himself. From this experience grew his anxiety and nervous habits. Now that he is finally a warrior he is more than ready to distance himself from his apprenticeship and begin to open up again.
