Light brown tabby she-cat with green eyes
F u l l . P h y s i c a l:
Maplestar is a light brown tabby she-cat. Her tabby stripes range in color from a darker brown to deep black. She has strange markings around her eyes, shaped like leaves. She has one white forepaw, her right one, and a white tail-tip. She also has a bit of white on her belly and chin.
Maplestar's eyes are a beautiful, forest green color, flecked with a darker green. They always seem to be alert for anything. The coloring of her eyes are like that of a leaf. They are rimmed with black and get slightly lighter towards the pupil.
The tabby she-cat is lithe and long, perfect for stretching out to snatch the hard-to-reach places in the forest. She has a keen sense of smell and hearing, and is a good swimmer, with long legs that she can use to propel herself through water. Her paw-pads are tough and thick, scarred in a couple places from past battles. Her paws are large and round, though smaller than a tom cat's.
P e r s o n a l i t y:
Maplestar is a very kind she-cat, always doing wat she thinks is right for her Clan. She has a special connection with StarClan, some cats say, and legend has it that StarClan warriors themselves come down from the skies to give Maplestar messages.
Maplestar cares deeply for every cat in her clan, especially young warriors, apprentices and kits. She has already mentored four apprentices, and is keen to pass on everything she has learned with her apprentices. She has much to pass on to the next generation.
Everycat loves Maplestar because she is such a great cat to be around. She enjoys patroling with her warriors and talking with the other cats at Gatherings, though she is always careful never to give any secrets away. Maplestar is a very trusting cat, and would give help to any cat who asked for it. She is a very hard cat to dislike.
H i s t o r y:
One stormy night, soon after Leaf-bare, a litter of three were born to a loyal couple. The parents names were Coldrain and Firetalon. There were two she-cats and one tom in this litter, and they were brought up to be close friends. The biggest she-cat was named Dovekit, for her white and silver pelt, the tom named Shadekit for his dark gray fur, and the last she-cat was Maplekit, for the rich, light brown tabby pelt of hers.
The three siblings had a natural childhood. Maplekit was the leader, and Dovekit and Shadekit wouldn't have known what to do without her. Dovekit was the reinforcer and the tough girl, while Shadekit took on the role of the quiet thiker. They were a happy litter, until a moon before they became apprentices. Their mother was killed by a fox that had attacked the camp. Luckily no one else had died.
The siblings grieved strongly for a while, but they cheered up immediatly when they became apprentices a moon later. Maplepaw was given to a stern but playful tom called Lionstrike, Dovepaw recieved tough Onefire, and Shadepaw was mentored by gentle Hazefur. The apprentices learned all they needed to know about being warriors.
Maplepaw was the first to know the territory by heart. By the time she became a warrior, you could have asked her where a specific leaf had fallen in the forest and she would know where. Dovepaw had been the quickest at fighting, though Shadepaw knew more about strategy when it came to both hunting and battle. Soon they were to be made warriors.
Everything would have gone well for the last two moons of their training, until a group of rogues threatened the Clan and the three siblings were sent out with the patrol to drive them out. That was a sad day. Hazefur had died trying to protect Shadepaw, who had been killed anyway. Lionstrike had also died.
Dovepaw and Maplepaw spent many moons grieving for their lost brother, but once they were made warriors they had less time to thinnk about it. Dovepaw was given the name Dovewing, and Maplepaw became Maplefall. This was when they were 14 moons old. When Maplefall was 15 moons old, she recieved her first apprentice. Dovewing recieved an apprentice at the same time, and they spent 8 moons training them.
Maplefall fell in love with a black and white warrior named Badgerclaw at the age of 20 moons, and soon after had kits. Her kits were Ashkit and Wolfkit, who later became known as Ashpath and Wolfshadow. When she was 27 moons, Maplefall recieved her second apprentice. At 28 moons, the previous deputy, Sootnose, died and Maplefall was chosen as deputy. She served as Deputy for 3 seasons, 9 moons, and received her third apprentice in that time.
At 37 moons, Shiningstar died, and now Maplestar has been leader for 2 moons.
O v e r a l l:
Maplestar is a kind and caring leader. She is a beautiful, light brown tabby who has many friends and 9 lives left. Her forest green eyes reflect her feelings for her territory, and her Companion, Rosri, shows a full love for the forest and all the creatures and plants in it.
S a m p l e:
The scent was blood. The brown and black she-cat was sure of it. She lifted her brown muzzle into the air and sniffed again. Yes, It was blood. She opened her green eyes wide with shock, her heart began pounding in her rubs. Fear filled her mind; fear for her clanmates, fear for her apprentice, fear for the forest itself.
The she-cat darted forward through the thron-sharp brambles, ignoring the stings that ripped through her pelt. She was blind with fear, and with a battle ready strength she knew she must run to save her clan. She raced past the ferns and nettles, hope clutched at her heart. The wind seemed to be blowing in her head. Quick! Quick! Save thm!
Her blood was pounding in her ears. She raced into the clearing. The stench of blood was over-powering. It was Echoheart's blood here, Firestrike's there. Her heart froze at the next scent. Ivycloud's blood was smeared across the log in the center of the clearing. Three cats accounted for; all were dead. Where was the rest of the patrol? What had happened when their Deputy was killed? Ivycloud probably would have told Wolfbreeze to save the apprentices and warriors. There were three apprentices, including Ghostpaw, all out there. Lost, most likely, running from the battle. Four warriors would be with them, but would it be enough?
The black she-cat turned from the clearing and began searching frantically for Wolfbreeze's scent, Ghostpaw's scent, any of their scents. Finally, she picked up Ghostpaw's fear-scent, mixed with Hollyfern's and Cascadepaw's. She followed the scent and began running again. She could scent all of her missing Clanmates now. They were not being chased anymore. She raced past the aspens and oaks, and the juniper bushes and hollies. Soon, she burst into a clearing where the scents just stopped. Her heart skipped a beat and she began searching, her head spinning desperately. On one side of the clearing, a group of ferns covered a den. On the other, a hollowed out oak was laying on its side. The injuries of her Clanmtes would have been horrible.
