Wormwood
I'm not entirely sure if this concept is allowed, but I wanted to make a loner who knew how to heal. I figured the clans can't be the only cats with this knowledge, somebody else had to figure it out eventually. Wormwood doesn't have the magical/spiritual powers that medicine cats do, they're just a cat who knows how to treat a wound. Is this okay? Am I allowed to do that? Somebody's gotta help the injured loners and rogues...
