~ Appearance ~
Mistypaw is an average sized gray tabby. Her fur coloring is more on the lighter side of gray, and while her stripes are definitely a different color, they aren't too different from her base coat. What is most noticeable about her is perhaps her scars. Most significantly, there's a big scar that draws across her left eye. She is unable to see from that eye. On her neck, she has claw marks that go pretty deep, looking like a death wound - which they were, because she died once and the scars remained. On multiple places of her pelt there are small scars, although they aren't noticeable upon first glance. Her one eye that's not wounded is a deep amber color that has a slight copper shine to it.

~ History ~
Okay um, this might get a little long and complicated..

Kithood - Mistykit was born to Gorseflower and a father she doesn't remember. She doesn't know if she had any siblings, either. Gorseflower was always rude and completely neglected her child, not wanting to do anything with little Misty, starving her, and even hurting her at times. One day, Misty was trying to get her mom to play with her, so she gently batted Gorseflower's back. Mistykit was extremely shocked when her mom turned around, lashed out at her until she bled, and then said she thought Misty was someone else. That day, she ran out of the nursery, terrified and shocked, and never saw her mom again.
The next few moons Misty just lived like a normal kit. Now that Gorseflower was gone she was happy, playing with other kits and talking to other cats. One significant interaction she had was with Stormtalon, who walked up to her and asked her for her name, then proceeded to tell her a story. The molly was impressed and really liked him.

Apprenticeship - Mistypaw was apprenticed to Stormtalon, which she really approved of. The beginning of her apprentice life was awesome. She was taken out for training by Stormtalon and other warriors, made many new friends, and lived life to its fullest. The first event in her life she was shook by was when Kestrelstar killed Quietclaw, but she didn't let it get to her, and she still supported him. It just made her scared that there were cats like Quietclaw out there that threatened others.
After that, something shifted - life just wasn't the same. She was still making friends though, and they helped her through it. Her thoughts were just a mess, but then she organized them and it was alright again. When Kestrelstar went missing, she was quite mad, but then he returned and she was extremely confused. With him, he brought multiple outsiders, among them Dolly, who would later become Misty's closest friend.
Soon after Kestrelstar returned, Stormtalon went missing, which destraught the young shecat. She didn't know what happened, and it made her fall into a hole of depression that it was hard to get out of. She'd never really experienced loss before, so she didn't know how to deal with it. The suddenn high rank changes and everything also contributed to her stress. She got a new mentor - Blizzardwind - and started bonding more with her adoptive sister Hazelstorm.. who was the only one she had. The molly was not in luck, she didn't have many to rely on.
Her life started changing drastically when she was going out for a hunt with Birdpaw, Bramblewish, and Parsleypaw. Everyone was in a great mood, which made her feel like she should try to be happy too. She really started getting fond of Birdpaw (Dolly) at this point.
However, she couldn't enjoy a moment of peace. Two loners jumped out of the bushes, one of them - Bone - jumped on her, the other attacked Parsleypaw. Bramblewish saved Misty from the loner, giving away her own life. Mistypaw was almost killed, but then the rogues suddenly grabbed Birdy and Misty and took them somewhere. Parsleypaw, who had a broken leg, and Bramblewish, were left. Turns out, they were going to be traded for food. They were shoved into a cat crate. Soon, Snowleap and Hazelstorm managed to find them, because of Parsleypaw's efforts. The rogues beat Misty until she was too weak, so they were only able to take Birdpaw with them. They killed Birdpaw. That really destroyed her, two deaths on one day, and such a traumatizing experience.
The young shecat just wasnt okay anymore. She went by her days as a hollow shell of what she used to be.
Somehow, Birdpaw returned. She got revived by StarClan, apparently. That made Misty soo happy, at least there was hope now.
backstory is a big wip theres just too much

Rank Requirements

Apprentices should have existed as an apprentice for at least two months real life time and needs to be minimally 12 moons old to qualify for a warrior ceremony. Exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis as deemed by Larkwing.
Completed
Creation Date: April 2021
Age: 28 moons

You will need at least one hundred roleplay posts made with that apprentice.
Completed

Apprentices need at least five instances of training experience that include the company of a warrior. The warrior does not have to be their mentor.

These experiences must include:
One land and water hunting lesson
Land Hunting: Complete, Link
Water Hunting: Complete, Link
One battle training session
Battle Experience: Complete, 1, 2
Battle training: Completed -> "Skip the Steps" Purrk
One swimming lesson (IF you received a swimming lesson as a kit, it counts for this!)
Swimming Lesson: Complete, Link


Here are some ways to get the remaining training experience your character will need to qualify for a final assessment:

Patrols (hunting, border, battle, herb collection)
Completed, 1, 2
Battle experiences (such as raids - requires a battle training session)
Completed, linked above
Any other life experience where the character learns something substantial
Completed, 1, 2
Plot participation
Completed, Link

When applying for a ceremony, these should be linked in your form for reference. This is to prevent characters from becoming warriors without having any actual form of training! You are responsible for organizing your own training sessions, but you may be placed on a patrol at a high rank's discretion.

Apprentices need to actively attend at least two Clan meetings. This includes showing up to their own ceremony through roleplay and, if applicable, reacting to the ceremony accordingly. For example, if a cat becomes a warrior in the meeting, the apprentice should join in chanting the new warrior's name.
Completed, 1, 2 (and more that are not linked)

Apprentices are required to complete a final assessment once they have met the minimum training experiences. The final should consist of hunting, battle training and swimming testing, to ensure their skills are satisfactory. Final assessments can be overseen by any warrior, however, the mentor is preferred.
Incomplete

The character should not have recently been punished by a high rank, or have been caught in roleplay doing something that violates the Warrior Code or Roleplay Guidelines (that is punishable by a high rank.)
Complete

Characters who have not made these qualifications by the age of 21 moons will have their place in the Clan reassessed by Larkwing to see if they are fit for Clan life.
The reasoning for her being 28 moons is that she's experienced a lot in her apprentice life which made it hard for her to participate in training.
She was kidnapped once, then she died, then she was kidnapped again by rogues, and then went missing because she tried to find Birdsnow
