Meet Lightningstorm, a proud cat
of RuneClan. He is, undoubtedly,
a tom and is interested in both
genders. This tom is thirty-five
moons old, and has succeeded
in becoming the deputy of his
Clan. His Clanmates know him
to be strict, just, determined,
and courageous. He is also strict,
unforgiving, stoic, and scary if
provoked. Lightningstorm is a tall,
muscled cat with broad shoulders
and battle scars which he proudly
wears. For now, he has no crush
and does not intend to take on a
mate anytime soon due to his
duties to his Clan. His only kin was
his brother Blizzardclaw, but he
died in a fox attack seasons ago.

Like all other cats of RuneClan, Lightningstorm hailed from the ancient blossom tree alongside his brother, Blizzardkit. Like all other apprentices, Lightingkit and Blizzardkit trained hard to become worthy members of RuneClan. He and his brothers were very close and did almost everything together, and yet one would note that they were cats from totally different worlds. Lightningkit was mostly silent, strict, and seemed a lot more mature for his age. Blizzardkit was carefree, reckless, and immature. Nevertheless, a strong bond formed between these brothers that lasted until Blizzardclaw's untimely death.

Blizzardclaw's death was Lightningstorm's fault, really. Or, at least, that's what he tells himself. Blizzardclaw, a newly made warrior, was filled with boundless excitement and energy. The younger tom had gotten it into his mind that embarking on a late night hunt would be a fantastic idea. Lightningstorm had displayed his doubts about Blizzardclaw's adventure, and yet he went along in order to see to his brother's safety. Unfortunately for these two cats, a fox happened to be in their vicinity. The fox made quick work of Blizzardclaw and delivered heavy blows to Lightningstorm, which forced him into the medicine den for about a moon as he recovered from the deep wounds.

Lightningstorm has learned to move on from brother's death, but he has yet to fully forgive himself. Instead of uselessly mourning, Lightningstorm channeled his grief into his warrior duties. Before he knew it, Cedarstar named him deputy of RuneClan. He holds his rank with pride, nose high and chest puffed, and is a no-nonsense sort of cat. Sometimes, his intentions are misinterpreted due to his lack of eloquence, but Lightningstorm rarely ever means to offend a cat (unless he believes the cat truly deserved offense).

Introducing Rabbitleap, a
member of RuneClan. Currently,
he is a simplistic warrior and is
perfectly content with his rank.
Like most cats of RuneClan, he
is a tom and is exactly twenty
moons old. He is characterized as
being kind, approachable, meek,
and considerate. On the flip side,
he is known to be cowardly, shy,
distant, and a dreamer. He is a
lithe tom with a leggy build - not
made for battle, but to race the
winds. The tip of his left ear is
missing, a token from a sparring
practice gone wrong. As of now,
Rabbitleap has no romantic inter-
est in any cat, but his heart yearns
for some excitement and romance.

Rabbitleap's past is really nothing to be excited about, for he is as typical as a RuneClan cat can be. Rabbitleap was delivered from the blossom tree alone and raised traditionally. Throughout his short life, Rabbitleap has always craved adventure. His mentor, Bramblefoot, was harsh on little Rabbitleap, a 'paw at the time. Bramblefoot trained Rabbitleap mercilessly and harshly, much to the smaller tom's dismay. His heart was never into fighting, but he could not stand the thought of being the medicine cat. Nonetheless, Rabbitleap pressed forward in his warrior duties and kept his dreams to himself, but an observant cat can nearly always spot Rabbitleap gazing longingly at RuneClan's border. It is not as if Rabbitleap dislikes his Clan. In fact, he is as loyal to RuneClan as the next cat. But his loyalty has done nothing to quell his desires, and perhaps one day Rabbitleap will finally fulfill his dreams and see the world beyond RuneClan territory.

Many can call Rabbitleap "soft," and that is a fact that he cannot refute. Rabbitleap is kind, perhaps naively so, and is therefore gullible to the evilness of the world around him. He believes that there is good in every cat, some buried deeper than others, and is always determined to see that good. Rabbitleap is unbiased towards cats and treats them all kindly - well, most. He is, as expected, apprehensive and wary of rogues and dangers towards his Clanmates, but that doesn't stop Rabbitleap's undying curiosity to gather more knowledge about them. He is soft spoken, rarely speaking out of turn, but is quite open towards those who intend to become his friends. Rabbitleap is also known to be sensitive to insults and accusations, often growing flustered, and is terrible with confrontation - he would much rather run from a dangerous situation than to turn and fight. Rabbitleap is a patient and understanding cat, both traits he is proud of. Perhaps one day he will turn and run far, far away from RuneClan? Who knows?

Meet your medicine cat, Liontail.
He would be quite offended if he
was mistaken as a she-cat; Liontail
proudly defines himself as a tom
at the age of forty moons. Cats call
Liontail confident, intelligent,
eloquent, and willful. However,
he's infamous for being snappy,
pompous, vain, and disdainful.
Liontail is an average sized tom
with no notable features besides
his unusually long, fluffy tail. Lion-
tail is cursed with an ugly, twisted
left paw which he got in a battle
with a badger. He is not at all
bothered by his disfigured paw,
and has learned how to live with
it. Honeyfur and Reedstorm, both
deceased, were his parents and
Smallpaw his sister.

Liontail wasn't born with his hideous left paw. No, he was born like any other kit. It was a bright, sunny day during the heart of newleaf, and Honeyfur was heavily pregnant with Reedstorm's kits. One was a handsome tom with orange-and-white fur and the other was the runt of the litter - she had a mottled brown coat and was named Smallkit. Lionkit and Smallkit were immensely spoiled by their parents, perhaps Lionkit more so. Lionkit was always opinionated, hotheaded, and perhaps a little vain, but Honeyfur allowed all of his mistakes to slide without so much of a twitch of her whiskers. Smallkit, on the other paw, suffered the brunt of Honeyfur's lectures. Honeyfur always found fault in Smallkit, and so Lionkit soon began to follow his mother's pawsteps. He began to bully his sister, though he was not aware of the harshness of his actions.

When he was an apprentice, his patrol encountered a badger. The huge creature charged recklessly at Lionpaw and his fellow warriors, and Smallpaw had the unfortunate luck of being killed on the spot. Lionpaw, spurred with unrefined anger, stood over his dying sister's body as the badger ran rampant around the scattered cats. The badger charged at Lionpaw, and then everything went black and red hot pain flashed through his mind. The next thing he remembered was waking up in the medicine den with a mangled paw. Although he was enraged at first and filled with despair, he eventually agreed to become the medicine cat's apprentice, for he had picked up many pieces of knowledge during his stay in the den.

Now, many moons later, it is apparent that Lionpaw has not allowed his disability to hinder him in any way. Liontail, named for his long feathery tail, has proven to be a skilled medicine cat of his Clan. However, a medicine cat's peaceful life has done little to calm his vain and pompous attitude.

Say hello to Fernpool an ex-
queen. She is recently returned to
being a warrior about two moons
ago. Fernpool is a she-cat and is
twenty-seven moons old. Once,
cats called Fernpool kind, sweet,
and motherly. Recently, though,
cats notice that Fernpool is often
seen alone and is usually
gazing off into the distance, lost
in her thoughts. Along with her
maternal instincts, Fernpool is
known to be fiercely protect-
ive, biased, and sensitive. She
is obviously a golden tabby with a
average build a long claw mark
across her muzzle. Fernpool was
the mother to Acornkit and Lion-
kit, but both are now deceased.

Ever since she was born, Fernpool displayed an amazing amount of care and love for those around her. She was the only kit of Larkcloud and Tigerfur's only litter, and was thus loved dearly by her parents. As a kit, she made plenty of friends in the nursery and nearly all the queens admired Fernpool's concern of every cat. At first, she considered becoming the medicine cat, but knew that she could not stand the scent and sight of blood. At the customary age of six moons, Fernkit was made into Fernpaw and given to a young warrior by the name of Hawktalon to train under. Fernpaw struggled as an during her days as an apprentice, but nevertheless she passed her examination and received her warrior name.

Fernpool fell in love with one of the loners her Clan had so graciously taken in. He was once known as Lion, but was renamed Brackenheart. The beginning of their relationship was rocky, but Fernpool eventually won his heart over. At the young age of twenty moons, she moved into the nursery with Brackenheart's kits. Fernpool's happiest days were spent in the nursery, for she loved being with the scent of milk and presences of the fellow queens and kits. Brackenheart often visited Fernpool, too. However, her happiness would not last. She experienced the pain of losing a loved one the third time when Brackenheart was killed in a border scuffle with some rogues. Though she was heartbroken, she continued to stay strong for her kits, whom she gave birth to several weeks after. She named her kits Lionkit, in memory of Brackenheart, and Acornkit. Fernpool was ferociously protective of her kits but that did not deter them from their fates. Fernpool caught greencough, infecting her kits. Both died only weeks later. Perhaps the weight of guilt and anger Fernpool feels is enough to drive her insane?

Currently known as Bluepaw, an
apprentice, she is eleven moons
old - a soon to be warrior. Though
she is still young, Bluepaw exudes
an eerie, ominous sort of aura. No
cat really knows much about her,
for Bluepaw is secretive and much
prefers to be alone. Bluepaw is wise
beyond her years and is very calculat-
ing. She appears to be stoic and is
frank whens she speaks, which leads
to offended cats. She is quite indepen-
dent and acts on her own accord many
times. She has no kin in the Clan. Blue-
paw is a lean, muscled cat with cream-
gray tabby fur and blue eyes. She has
a nick on her ear and several scars at
her paws.

Bluepaw is perhaps the Clan's greatest mystery, for little is known about her. Even her parents are unknown! Bluepaw was found near the Clan's border, perhaps abandoned by her parents due to her somewhat small size at birth. The Clan cats never knew of her true heritage, but they were bounded by the warrior code to help her. When Bluepaw was brought back into camp, her eyes weren't even open. She was given to a permanent queen named Briarflower to raise alongside. Though she was given a normal upbringing, Briarflower did not withhold Bluepaw's mysterious origins, thus sparking Bluepaw's interest to learn about the parents who abandoned her.

No matter how hard she tried, Bluepaw found that she was simply awkward when interacting with the kits around her. She would often play too hard or say something too mean, which would result in a queen hissing at her. Bluepaw found it hard to connect with her Clanmates, and often dreamed of discovering her past. Briarflower was perhaps Bluepaw's greatest friend, for the younger she-cat always found that she never had to hide her true personality from Briarflower. The queen could handle Bluepaw's odd ways, and Bluepaw loved her for that. Unfortunately, a few moons after Bluepaw's apprenticeship, Briarflower caught greencough and died.

That was many moons ago, though, and Bluepaw has since learned to move on with her life. Still, her heart yearns for a cat who can understand her like Briarflower once did. She works hard to earn her warrior name and place within the Clan, thinking that perhaps that will sate her desire to belong.

Brightpaw is exactly how her name
makes her out to be. Eight moons
old, Brightpaw seems to have the
eternal energy of a kit despite her
being an apprentice. Brightpaw
is known for her optimism and
kindness. She is always eager to
please those around her, especially
towards her mentor. Brightpaw is
cheerful, perhaps annoyingly so,
and her radiance seems to infect
those around her - all except her
troublesome brother, Stormpaw,
of course. However, Brightpaw
has her downfalls. She is a bit
slow and naive, making her very
gullible. She is too trustful of
those around her. Her only living
kin is her brother Stormpaw.

Now, you may be wondering to yourself - how in the world can Stormpaw and Brightpaw be related? These two cats came from two completely different worlds with differing viewpoints on life. One lived for the danger while the other lived to please those around her. Despite their differences and Stormpaw's indifference towards her, Brightpaw still loves her brother unconditionally. Ever since she was born to Riverbreeze and Harestep, Brightpaw

Ah, the young tom who has had an
unfortunate life. At ten moons of
age, Leopardpaw is known as
the medicine cat's apprentice.
A badger attack left him with a
scarred face and blind left eye.
He also has a twisted left paw
from the attack. His right ear is
torn, making him partially deaf.
Leopardpaw is a quiet and deter-
mined who always finds a way to
get things done. He is quite intell-
igent and loves a good puzzle. But
Leopardpaw is also very secretive
and withdrawn. He is insecure of
his scars, and wants nothing more
than to become a warrior. Leopard-
paw's parents were Swiftcloud and
Tigerfang, and was the only kit.

Leopardpaw's story is not a happy one - that's for sure. He was born to Swiftcloud and Tigerfang, and his father was the ambitious deputy of his Clan. Though his mother's labor was long and hard, she only gave birth to one kit - a spotted tom who looked similar to Tigerfang's deceased sister. Her name was Leopardfoot, and so they named their only kit Leopardkit in memory of her. Growing up, Leopardpaw displayed great promise to become a warrior. His mother was protective and coddled Leopardpaw, but she always encouraged him to become the best he could be. Tigerfang adored his kit and often came to visit him.

Unfortunately, his life took a sudden change for the worst when he was seven moons old. He was on a border patrol with his parents and mentor when a wretched badger intruded and attacked them. Swiftbreeze was immediately killed. When the large creature turned on the patrol, the cats bravely fought. Leopardpaw, a new apprentice at the time, did not participate much in the battle. When his father, Tigerfang, was pinned down with no place left to run, he ordered Leopardpaw to flee. Of course, the spotted tom did, but he didn't make it far before the badger got him.

When he woke up, Leopardpaw wasn't sure whether he was alive. According to the medicine cat, he had been balancing between life and death for several weeks. But once he looked into a puddle and saw his reflection, he regretted even trying. He was ugly. His dreams of becoming a warrior ended right then and there, and he decided to become the medicine cat's apprentice, but struggles with the job of memorizing herbs and working under pressure.

Stormpaw, the troublesome apprentice
of his Clan. Much like his namesake, the
eight moon old cat causes disorder.
Stormpaw has little regard to the rules
and is a short-tempered, arrogant cat.
He doesn't get along with most cats and
doesn't seem to be bothered by it - yet.
Stormpaw, despite all of his faults, has
some good in him. He is protective
of those he loves, and is witty. He is
also quite sly, like a snake, and
takes great pride in it. He is determined
and very passionate, once he puts
his heart into something (or some cat).
Stormpaw has a dark, short gray pelt
and dark amber eyes. His sister, oddly
enough, is the kind hearted Brightpaw.

To be quite honest, there isn't much to say about Stormpaw here. He was born to Riverbreeze and Harestep, and his only sibling is his sister Brightpaw. Riverbreeze and Harestep both loved their kits, of course, but Stormpaw always proved to be the more wily one. While Brightkit laid contentedly in her nest, purring by her mother's side, Stormkit sneaked out into camp to cause all kinds of mischief. His fondest memories were lacing the warriors' nest with thorns and stealing clumps of precious moss from the medicine den. He proved to be a fantastic liar, as well, because he was usually able to weasel himself out of punishment. However, his luck eventually fell short during one particularly stupid prank.

He had it all plotted perfectly - he was going to take Brightkit out on a little adventure and then cause some sort of loud noise in the undergrowth. Knowing his sister to be skittish, Brightkit would most definitely run back into camp in a panicked state. And then Stormkit would follow suit, announcing to the Clan that there was a fox near the camp. With all the warriors gone, he would have the chance to explore as much as he wanted, and he would be able to see their stupefied expressions when they returned. Unfortunately for him, the leader didn't seem to enjoy his clever prank and thus pushed back his apprenticeship one moon. Ever since, Riverbreeze and Harestep displayed shame in their son, though Stormkit managed to ignore their glares. So, here he is. An eight moon cat made an apprentice one moon late. Stormpaw is the name, and trouble is his game. Where will he strike next?

Meet Heatherstar, former leader of ThunderClan. Her
birth was a result of disloyalty, and so Heatherstar wo-
rked twice as hard for her Clanmates' appreciation. At
mates' appreciation. She became deputy at thirty-four
moons of age due to her leader-like qualities, and
then leader. She held her position for many moons,
but was exiled due to the paranoia of her Clanmates.
