Chase is both friendly and incredibly cocky. He’s rather full of himself, being smug and confident. Chase is extremely mischievous and known for not always following the rules. However, once you get to know him, he is a lot kinder than he seems. Chase uses jokes to hide behind – and if he trusts you enough, he’ll tell you the truth about his past. He is one of the most experienced and skilled fighters, and he will use his abilities for the good of his clan. Chase doesn’t believe in Starclan, however, he supports his friends and clanmates in their beliefs – and would never say anything to hurt them.
Chase often has nightmares of his brutal past, and on those days he has extreme anxiety throughout the day and can get rather snappy and stressed out. Other cats know to leave him alone when he has these ‘episodes’. Some things trigger these panic attacks, and sometimes he can feel them coming while other times it happens out of nowhere.

Chase was born into a rogue clan – known as the Bloodthorn Band. He is very skilled at fighting due to a way of training that included extremely severe punishments. He lived there for the first seven months of his life – the worst months of his life.
Friends weren’t a thing – it was hunt or be hunted. You couldn’t trust any cats, not even littermates. It was every cat for himself – starting at the young age of 3 moons a cat would begin training in the ‘Irontooth’ method. This method meant cats were training for hours every day, oftentimes into the night. If you faltered, argued or stood up for another cat you would be punished.

However, even though Chase grew up in this harsh environment, his personality grew when he joined Wishclan and he began to become more than a trained robot and his own, individual character.
Chase leaving his home was a hard decision – but he knew it had to happen. Growing up in an environment like the Bloodthorn Band takes its toll on any cat. But Chase was extremely lucky that the chance to leave arose for him. The band of rogues was attacked by a group of canines not far from Wishclan’s territory, and the clan heard the cats’ distressed calls and came to help. Afterwards, while the band was destroyed and scattered, Chase decided to turn his back on all he had known and join Wishclan.
While in the Bloodthorn Band Chase had been scolded and chastised whenever he showed anything other than what their leader wanted, and his anger and need to be free brewed and boiled inside of him. Joining Wishclan was all he needed for his personality to break through and shine. He likes to use his skills to make himself known, because he doesn’t want to be ignored or disregarded ever again. Chase has amazing talent and he knows it – and he wants others to know that his past hasn’t defined him.

Alfie - Alfie is like a father
figure to Chase. They
are both very close
and are often found talking.
Usif - Usif is one
of Chase's best friends,
with them both being
outcasts they have a
lot in common.
Raccoonmask - Raccoonmask is
another good friend
of Chase's.
They are almost always
together and are the
bestest of friends.
Simba - Simba is a friend,
but in a way Chase
views him as an
opponent - or a threat.
Simba is also a very
good fighter and
Chase worries that
he will lose his respect.

"What is it exactly that you want from me?" Hickory asked the dark tabby tom
with a frown. "You want me to join your clan?" The second inquiry left her mouth
before she could smother it. She swallowed, her deep blue eyes looking up
at him.
ThistleWing smiled, his sharp teeth glinting in the pale sunlight. "That is exactly
what I am asking of you... Except." He paused, glancing away, his yellow eyes
looking at the pair's surroundings. "I don't just want you to join. I want you to thrive."
"Thrive?" Hickory echoed, her muzzle scrunching up in confusion. "How exactly
would I be doing that?"
"My dear." ThistleWing swept his large muscled form around the mottled she-cat.
"Thriving is in your nature."
Hickory frowned, but her eyes betrayed her, showing the dance of excitement
in the dark blue pools.
"You will be a miracle on all four paws. Walking with the beauty and grace of my
clan." He mumbled into her ear. "You will stand beside me on the throne, A daughter
to the crown."
Hickory shivered. She had been meeting this tomcat at this so-called 'border'
for moons now, and she couldn't help but feel intrigued to join his monarchy and
clan. He had promised her everything she could have dreamed of.
All she had to do, was follow him with undying loyalty.
"All of my followers will worship you. A warrior princess if you will."
Hickory looked back toward ThistleWing, her head tilted slightly.
"What about your own children?" She asked him.
Thistle shook his head. "They mean little to me. They have only become
disappointments." He explained, tapping his thick tail across her back.
"But you would never disobey me would you?" He asked her.
Hickory shook her head. "Never." She told him.

"Do you promise to follow me without question? To come to my beck and call?
I will give you all that you could ever ask for and all I request is your undying
loyalty." ThistleWing spoke from the lowest branch of ThistleTree, hie yellow
eyes staring down at Hickory.
The mottled young she-cat glanced around, her eyes landing on AdderFire, who
shook his head subtly. Hickory curled her lip. He was a disappointment to his
father.
"I promise." She looked up with a smile as the large tom leapt down to the
sandy clearing.
"Then by the power invested in me, I shall now give you the name "HickoryDream.
You may join whichever rank you wish, and your training will begin tomorrow.

"You will be joining my assassins yes?" ThistleWing asked curiously. His
sudden appearance startling HickoryDream as cats dissipated after the meeting.
Hickory frowned and shook her head. "I was thinking of being a nomad." She confessed.
ThistleWing scowled. "that won't do." He told her.
"But you said--"
"I said what the clan wanted to hear. If you wish to become my warrior princess,
you must protect me as my assassin.
"But I don't want to hurt anyone." Hickory's eyes clouded. "I want peace."
"That's not a possibility" ThistleWing told her. "You promised to follow my every
command"

"He's growing insane."
"That's normal these days."
HickoryDream stared at the chocolate tabby
beside her.

AdderFire wasn't a disappointment, he just wanted his father to do what's best for the clan. However, of course, what's best for the clan in Adder's eyes were much different from Thistle's. Hickory couldn't see though how ThistleWing could be so evil after all those months of him trying to convince her to join.
And now she had all this blood on her paws that she never wanted.
But her vow to him had betrayed her, and she couldn't disobey him, even if that meant killing cats unethically. She hated it.
She hated the fact that now that she was his 'warrior princess' that she couldn't do anything on her own. Everything was for Thistle now.
"You know I warned you." AdderFire meowed softly, his amber eyes soft as he looked at the she-cat's tormented face.
"I know. But I trusted Thistle more than I trusted you then. You know he calls you a disappointment right?" She asked.
AdderFire's face scrunched up and he nodded, though his eyes deceived him with the sudden flash of sadness that shown through. "He called my brother and sister that too when he initially started creating ThistleClan." He explained with a shrug.
"He trained me to kill," Hickory whispered, catching the chocolate tabby at her side off guard. "He said I was killing bad cats, but really they're all okay. They were not so bad." She shuddered. "I shouldn't have vowed." She said, tears beginning to rim her eyes.
"None of us should have," AdderFire replied. "We all regret it."
"Someone needs to do something." HickoryDream hissed under her breath. "I've been here for moons now, and I've killed too many cats for him. I can't do it anymore."
"We're all too scared though." AdderFire frowned. "I would, but I couldn't go so low as to killing my father." He continued.
Hickory shrugged. "And he gave me everything I could ask for." She shook her head. "I couldn't do it."
"Someone has to."

"I have to."
HickoryDream stared at AdderStar, able to easily make out his outline in the darkness. His deep amber eyes reflected the pale moon as he looked at the mottled she-cat.
"If you think you can do so cleanly and properly, I think you must." AdderFire meowed, his voice hushed. "However, my father isn't a fair fighter, and won't go down easily."
"He trusts me." HickoryDream whispered. "You forget he calls me a daughter. all it will take is a well-aimed blow."
"I thought you didn't like bloodshed. That you never wanted to do this."
HickoryDream shivered and she nodded with a scowl. "But he deserved what's coming to him. And I am one of the only ones capable."
AdderFire nodded slowly, his thick tail waving around his paws. "Then go now, while he's out. Take him out in the darkness and cover your tracks." The tabby told her. HickoryDream nodded and stood, looking around at the empty camp before slipping away into the dark territory.

Slipping quietly amongst the undergrowth, HickoryDream rubbed up against the thick trunk of a tree, marking the scent along the border. Of course, she still had to do her job, despite being on a different mission.
She found thick smelling flowers and patches of garlic, things that AdderFire suggested she use to mask her scent. She hoped it would work, it didn't smell anything like she usually did.
Shrugged to herself she continued on. The only good thing about ThistleWing was that he couldn't cover his tracks well. The path he took was well trodden, and his scent so far grew more and more fresh as HickoryDream followed it.
As she peeked aroundside another hedge of undergrowth, she spotted him, her eyes narrowed as he walked along the border, marking every few tail lengths to keep the boundary constant.
HickoryDream barely held the growl in her throat.
He took everything from her. He convinced her to join the clan, only to go back on his promise of her thriving.
She never thrived, but with her at his side, ThistleWing surely did.
She flattened her ears as she approached him from behind, but shook out her fur before coming to his side.
"Hello, Father." She greeted with a smile, her gaze warm as she looked at him.
ThistleWing barely flinched, but his face softened at her arrival.
"Ah, hello daughter. Coming to keep me company I presume?" He asked her softly, his gruff meow casual.
A small stab of guild passed through HickoryDream but she nodded. "Yes! It's a beautiful night, no clouds or things that could get in the way of the stars." She answered.
ThistleWing chuckled warmly, and he swept his tail to touch her shoulder softly. "You're a good one Dreamie, I know I'll always be able to trust you."
It was now or never. She couldn't risk him getting on edge. He was vulnerable now.
So why was she hesitating? Why were tears threatening to spill from her eyes.
She bit down on her tongue hard to keep the tears from coming, almost crying out.
"Father I have a question."
She barely managed to speak without her voice breaking. ThistleWing regarded her calmly.
"Are you proud of me?" She asked him, pausing to sit down and stare at his bulky frame.
Thistle paused as well, sitting across from the mottled golden she-cat. He nodded, his yellow eyes welcoming. "Of course I am! You're my warrior princess." He told her. He put a paw forward, a symbol of comradary.
HickoryDream leaning forward, tears 'of happiness' springing from her eyes as she returned the gesture, only to leap forward at the last second and clamp her jaws around his throat.
ThistleWing stiffened, his claws digging into her pelt harshly as he gasped for air. HickoryDream remained in that position until the dark tabby stilled, his eyes staring off in a daze.
Tears really did fall from the she-cat's eyes now. staining the tom's pelt as she leaned forward to lick closed his eyes, giving him a peaceful expression. He died easily, that's all she could've asked for.
"If only you could've been a better cat, it wouldn't have had to end like this." She sobbed, pressing her nose into his thick fur and breathing in his scent one last time.

The only words she uttered when she saw AdderFire the next morning, her eyes hollow and dusty pelt unclean.
He could only nod in agreement.

HickoryDream tries to be an optimist. Of course this isn't always the best for her. Despite trying to always view things as 'glass half full' it often betrays her. She wants everything to be okay, she wants everyone to thrive. She wants bullies to be exiled. She wants kits to grow up healthy and happy.
However, of course she has a little bit of a dark side.
She has an extremely large guilt complex, she takes the blame for everything, even if she had no part in it. As well she never wants to start conflict or risk anyone getting mad at her. She wants to remain on everyone's good side since that's all she really has now.
She's surprisingly good at lying, though her cover tends to break if the cat looks away. She's quick-witted as well, and can put on a friendly face even in the midst of disaster.
She tends to wear a smile whenever she's around others and only really lets her guard down around cats she's really close to, like AdderStar or HoneyWind.
She can be a little anxious, but only if very serious things are to happen, she never wants to be unprepared. She can be a bit obsessive that way, she always wants to do the right thing and never looked back afterwards. But if the right thing includes bad actions, she can never live it down.
She's curious, and she can be a bit naive when meeting strangers. That's why she never likes patrolling. If she wasn't so naive before she'd never be in the current situation.
She enjoys talking alot, but she also enjoys quite silence, sitting together with another cat, the only noise the whisper of the wind. That's the good stuff.
She tends to be very quiet and reserved around cats she doesn't know very well but can be very loud and childish when with kits. She doesn't want them to think she's an uncool adult.

Hickory led a very sheltered life before she came to thistleClan. She was a home-cat, who never wanted to leave the safety of the den. She was calm and quiet and tended to just lay around all day.
Of course, this all changed when she ventured out of her home for the first time in moons, curious of what was beyond the garden. It took a few tries, but eventually, she pumped herself up enough to leave the fence and explore the surrounding forested area that her humans built their den in.
It was fascinating! She never knew just wonders! Everything was green, the grass was soft, she could hear the birds chirping really close!!
It was the best place she could imagine being in.
Until she met ThistleWing.
She had crossed a border and ventured too far in, it was freezing and she was starving. She just wanted to sleep, running into the dark tabby. And despite every instinct that told her to fleed, she had never seen another cat before, only heard of them, wow she needed to get outside more. And she was freezing, almost hyperthermic, she didn't have the energy to flee.
He warmed her up, it was calming almost. Like a warm blanket, she nestled into him until she was warmed up.
He was... nice, despite his scarred and scary appearance. He led her back to the territories edge and they bid farewell. Except Hickory didn't know where to go from there, she stayed at the border till he came back at the next day.
Curious as to why she didn't leave, Thistle started talking to her, she was a smart cat who didn't understand the wilderness. She couldn't hunt to feed herself, she couldn't defend herself.
He had to fix that.
The lessons started soon after, him teaching her how to hunt and fend for herself, they sparred and she soon proved herself to be a worthy adversary. ThistleWing was proud of who she had become.
Hickory loved it, she saw him as a new father, since she couldn't remember her old one. He was protective of her and looked after her health. He even brought a healer out to look after her when she well from too far up.
Life had become easy again, it was fun to hunt and chase.
And then he offered her a spot in his clan.
It took a lot of convincing, and of course she was hesitant at first. But slowly she realized life could get better if she joined her adoptive father in his clan.
She could be his warrior princess.

AdderStar
He opened my eyes to see that
what I believed to be the best
thing for me was indeed not so.
He guided me when I fell into the
darkness. I am incredibly grateful
to have become my friend.
He makes sure that I know that
I am wanted.

HoneyWind
She understands.
She knows what it's like to have
her paws tied, unable to do
anything. She is so kind and soft,
she makes sure I don't scare.
I appreciate her more than I
care to admit.
She keeps me steady, that's all i need.

ThistleWing
As much as I hate to admit.
ThistleWing was like a father to
me. He looked after me and trained
me to become who I am today.
I don't regret what I did, but
there are many days I feel guilty
for it. But I wouldn't go back on
my decision.

BrackenShine
I didn't trust her at first. I
wastold not to. But then I
learnt she's just like me. She
was too naive and trusting
and it backfired on her. I've
learnt to trust her because of
her own mistakes, and she's
accepted mine. Even if she
doesn't know the whole story.

BrambleThorn
I'm not sure about him. He's strange
to me, I think he might suspect I had
something to do with ThistleWing.
I hope he would understand.
He's kind I guess, but I can tell he's
uneasy around me, I really hope
that changes soon. I don't
like the looks he gives me.

ShadowWalker
I know he hates me, I know it.
But that's okay, I don't really like
him either. He treats the young
cats badly and I don't think it's
very fair on their part. They
never did anything that deserves
that!
He's pretty rude to me too, He
didn't really like Thistle either,
but I think he just doesn't like
me because I'm me.

EbonyLion
Working beside her is actually
kind of fun. I don't dislike her
bluntness and I find she's good
company in the dark. Though
her and I have wavering opinions
on being assassins.

DuskChaser
This guy is really cool! When
I get sent out on missions
beyond the territory he likes
to tag along. He's really fun to
talk to. He's so intelligent on
the stars and always has some
interesting fact to plug into
any topic of conversation.

Hickory was cold, she was freezing. The fur one her flank was plastered to her ribs as she crawled along the frosty ground. Twilight was approaching, and she was wondering if she would make it through the night.
A cry left her as her legs finally fully gave out, her muzzle falling into her paws as she as her eyes fell closed. The only thing she could do was curl up against herself into a ball in an attempt to conserve what little heat she had.
She was frail and tiny still, her ribs jutting out from not having any food for too long. She just wanted to be home and back with her humans. She couldn't help but feel like she made a grave mistake going out beyond her fence. She missed the safety of her bed.
She didn't know how long she had been curled up against the cold ground, but eventually, she felt a warm body curl up around her. She whimpered softly, nestling amongst some thick fur and beginning to purr.
Another cat finally began to purr. It was raspy and loud as if it hadn't been done in that specific throat hadn't purred in years. A thick tail blanketed Hickory as she slowly cracked open her deep blue eyes.
Her eyes landed on a need yellow gaze that rested on a scarred muzzle. Hickory gasped in panic, but her aching muscles were too stiff to leap back. Her ears flattened against her head and she began hyperventilating.
"Shhhh." The dark tabby said softly, wrapping himself tighter around the young she-cat. Who was this strange cat?
"Who--" Hickory was unable to get the rest of the words out of her mouth, and her eyes widened in panic.
"My name is Thistle. I saved you."
He saved her?
Thistle must have recognized the look of confusion on the she-cat's face. He let out a hearty chuckle as he looked away. "You were freezing out here my dear, you are lucky I found you when I did." He purred again, his eyes closing for a brief second before he brought his attention back to the mottled she-cat. "Are you warm enough to get home now?" He asked her, tilting his head.
Hickory's mouth fell agape for a brief moment, she was having a hard time comprehending all of this new information. Slowly, she nodded and looked away for a quick second.
Thistle stood up from laying on the frozen ground and his warm was quickly replaced by cold all around Hickory. She shivered but rose to her paws, she would be able to get back right? She looked back to Thistle, who smiled softly.
"Get safe now, you cannot just go crossing over borders. Some cats aren't as friendly as I." He said with a chuckle before turned and trotting off into the frost undergrowth.
Hickory watched him leave, and her tail drooped. What now?

I wish the world vanished inside my head.
For all, I could dream for was sorts of peace
A golden aura lays with me in bed
my racing thoughts never manage to cease
Cast up towards the dark sky is heaven
I want to fly, up in the floating clouds
If only lives only reached to seven
I feel swallowed up in all of the crowds
A flying bird doesn't know it is free
Guilt is not something in which we can lose
A simple mouse cannot escape the bee
My life is like the genre rhythm and blues
encroaching darkness begins to swallow
all i really want to do is wallow

Ｆａｌｃｏｎｓｏｕｌ

Crown Queen | Female | 52 moons | The Isles Of Nes
Listen to Castle by Halsey

"It is said that all of the queens and kings of the Isles hold the soul of some powerful animal in their body. I hold the soul of a falcon, a furious warrior of the sky who gives me my speed and agility. I hold it's soul in my body and until I am no more, the falcon leads us.

♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔

Born into power,
doesn't make it effortless
or sweeter
it would never be my prefrence.

But I don't make the rules,
I can't change them.
Even with the crown,
I don't control the outcome.

So instead I lead us all,
I carry the weight.
Even when others want to drag me down,
Burning bright with hate.

I'm not the most popular ruler,
I'm sharp tounges and sass.
But there's enough loyal to me,
The others I watch like glass.

I know how to lead my island,
I know how to do it all.
I have time for nothing else,
even when I'm down I must stand tall.

I am the Queen,
till death takes me home.

♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔♚♔

Falconsoul knew from the moment she could understand what was being told to her, that she was meant to be the next ruler of the island of the isles they called home. The lands surrounded by salt water, blue as deep as Falconsoul's own eyes control there everyday lives. The isles themselves covered in lush green with cliffs towering over the north side and sandy beaches running along the south. She would grow to love the land and the ocean for it was there home and it was the land she ruled along with its people.

"Falcon! Wake up it's time for you to get ready if you're late for this your father will have my head!" Aberny her handmaid yelled as she stormed into the den that Falcon occupied by herself since she left her mother's side.

A grumble was all the response the handmaid got at first before the cat began pushing at Falcon's body to rouse the crown princess for one of the biggest days of her life. "Come on you should be excited, it's your trial day after this you'll be considered ready to rule in the eyes of the Gods!"

"You go do it, you seem far more excited," Falcon grumbled never one to get up early and with no plans to start now. "All they are going to make me do it go down to the cliffs, climb in this dumb cave and stare into the water in hopes that the Gods will like me enough to let me rule. But even if I hear nothing, which is what will happen I'll come back and everyone will cheer about how the Gods have blessed me."

The rant was a bit unexpected this early in the morning but Aberny was used to the younger she-cat down talking the Gods, she'd never believed in them and the older molly could only hope that when she ruled she either came to or faked it well enough for the others. "You don't have to believe in the Gods to go through with the trail and who knows maybe after you will. Now get up and get ready everyone is already gathering to send you off, it's a half days trip to get to the cove caves."

"Yes mother," Falcon mumbled as the she-cat who was much more a mother figure to her then her own mother left the den, leaving Falcon to herself.

"Falcon glad you could finally join us," Her mother said sternly, a purr attempting to come out but falling short as she greeted her daughter who was padding up towards the rock that overlooked the main camp where most of the kingdom lived.

"You know me, mother, I have to make sure I show up right when I am needed, not a moment before," Falcon responded flatly, a smile coming onto her face at the sight of her father up by the edge.

"There she is," He greeted loudly, enough so the cats waiting bellow could hear that they were about to get started, rubbing his head along hers in greeting before leading her to the edge.

"Cats of the Isles of Nes we are all gathered here today to send off and wish my daughter and your crown princess Falcon off to met and get the bless of the Gods when it becomes time for her to rule. With there blessing, she will learn the secrets to ruling these islands. As per tradition Falcon will head out to the cove caves were she will converse with the Gods and learn everything she can from them for the next two days. When she returns she will be fully recognized as the queen to be and will stand with the Gods at her side."

With the last of the current Kings speech, the cats bellowed cheered and Falcon felt the thundering of the kingdom below her and the wishes they sent off with her. At twelve moons old she felt all too young to have this much put on her, but this was how things went and she needed to be the she-cat they wanted her to be.

"May the Gods bless," Falcon yelled out once the cheers died down, the cats yelling back the pray before Falcon was able to slip away.

"Be safe on your trip," Her mother said softly before she went down with the rest of the cats, leaving Falcon with the same cold feeling she always felt when she talked or interacted with her mother.

"You've got this," Her father said warmly, bumping his head to her shoulder sending her off on the half day trip to the cove cave.

Her mind was clouded as she left the main part of the kingdom, wondering if maybe she really would meet the Gods that everyone praised so much. Maybe this would change her mind, although the young she-cat doubted it, how could beings so strong and so powerful and no one ever see them.

----

It took a good half day for Falcon to make it to the cliff side that would lead her down to the cove caves, probably more considering she stopped a few times, dragging it out as long as possible. It was only after she made it that she realized she could have gone somewhere and hide and no one would know if she'd really gone or not. But of course, she couldn't do that, she had a duty to her kingdom and to her father to see this threw.

"Alright Falcon you can do this, just go lay around by the cave pools, fish in the water, and wait for these all mighty beings to talk to you and give you there wisdom no big deal," Falcon assured herself before traveling down the well-worn path towards the caves, sticking close to the walls to keep from falling over the side and into the crashing ocean below. The smell of sea salt heavy in the air reminding Falcon that even though she was far from home this place was still just as much home.

"Hello!" The young molly yelled out for good measure as she reached the mouth of the cave, her own voice echoing softly back at her along with the crashing of the ocean as it entered the cave to fill the pools.

It's cooler inside the caves then it was outside, sending a chill through the she-cats body as she slowly pads inside, eyes wide as she scans around the room. "Alright this is creepy, I'll give it that." She mumbles not waiting to cause another echo to toss her own words back at herself.

For the rest of the day, Falcon explores the large cave opening, watching the fish in the pools and keeping track of the fading light coming in from the mouth. It was once the light was almost gone that the molly took her place by the center pool and stretched out next to it to get through her first night. "May the Gods show me the way," She mumbled before closing her eyes and drifting off.

----

"Hello!" Falcon yelled out much like she did when she entered the caves, but instead of her voice echoing back, it seemed to get caught in a cloud and fade out into nothing. Slowly but surely the surroundings came into focus, a forest different from the ones she knew, thicker and darker but with a lightness to them all the same.

"You've finally come to met us little one,"

"Who's there!" Falcon yelled back, jumping back to try and move away from the voice, but finding it echoing around her instead of coming from one direction.

"Don't be afraid young one, we have a lot to teach you and very little time to do so."

"You're real," Falcon said finally eyes wide as it all came crashing down on her, for her whole life she'd taught the Gods were a joke, but her father and Aberny had been right all along, the Gods where real.

"I've grown a lot in these many moons, even more so since my father died and I took over as rules of The Isles of Nes. I didn't believe in the Gods when I was young, maybe because I didn't want to, even though they were there all along. I fully believe in them now and I turn to them for guidance whenever I must. But in the end, I must believe in myself as well and do what I think is right for my kingdom. There are those who do not like my rule, who do not think I'm doing a good job like my father, but they are wrong and I will prove that. I am the Falcon and I am the Queen of The Isle of Ness.

Prompt

______________________________________________________________

p e r s o n a l i t y
Leafpaw is a quiet she-cat, she's not afraid or anything, she's just shy. She prefers to observe others rather then interact with them. Leafpaw is a very observant she-cat, she learns as much as she can by watching others and tends to stray away from them if they get to close or she does. She's trying to cope with her shyness but isn't doing to good of a job. She's trying to learn to accept it and then overcome it, but she really needs help but every time she tries to be brave she runs away as fast as she can. She doesn't plan to stop trying to be brave and she's not afraid, she wants to be better, stronger for someone she lost and for someone who could really use the help. Leafpaw, despite her shyness is a really kind-hearted she-cat, despite being shy, she is very tolerant and her smile which is given often is a symbolic portrait of her kindness. She does not have much courage by herself, but it gleams when she has a purpose, Leafpaw also has an ability to sense a higher truth behind things, though she wouldn't consider it very special. She can also be very intelligent, she often is able to spot a dangerous plant or point out something that others don't seem to notice. This side appears when she is serious about helping another and she removes her translucent mask. She looks at the world in a different way, and never worries about the small stuff, she is the type of she-cat who doesn't ask for the moon and only appreciates what she has. Leafpaw is trying her best to be a good apprentice but she still struggles to keep up with her training.

Leafpaw was born into a group of loners her name was just Leaf and despite being so young she has lived a pretty hard life. She never got to meet her father who died before she was born and her mother was killed by a fox when she got to close to the den when hunting. Leaf was sad when she lost her mother, she ended up running away from the group when a few of the younger cats made fun of her for being weak and not able to help her parents. In order to survive she ran as far as she could. She ended up stumbling into a dense forest where she met Softfeather and Ebonyears who brought her to Echoclan territory. Echostar invited her to stay and took her on as an apprentice giving her the name Leafpaw.

m e n t o r
Leafpaw looked up quietly at Echostar as she slipped into her den gently, Leafpaw jumped up softly, "Echostar?" She asked, "Good morning Leafpaw, ready?" Echostar asked softly looking at Leafpaw softly, "R-Ready?" Leafpaw stammered surprised, Echostar nodded her head, "For training, today I will be showing you more of the territory as well." She said before she slipped out of the den swiftly. Leafpaw blinked and chased after her swiftly, "A-Ah yes!" she said as she moved after her leader, following the dark she-cat through the camp before making her way carefully across the rock crossing and heading towards the clearing. She perked her ears waiting as Echostar perked her ears and listened to the area before she walked out into the field and sat down curling her tail, "It's safe." She called. Leafpaw poked her head out nervously before she slipped out curling her tail as she did. "O-Okay.... if you a-are sure." She said, "I wouldn't have called you out otherwise." Echostar mused with a gentle purr.

Leafpaw sat down quietly with her ears pinned back tightly as she looked down, Echotar looked at her and gave her a comforting smile, "Leafpaw... I know... it's hard." She said, "I understand you miss your mother, she would have wanted you to be happy... I promise you are safe here." She said. Leafpaw slowly looked up at her, "I-I know... it's just... I-I'm afraid." She said sheepishly looking down, Echostar nodded her head, "I understand." She said before she nudged her gently and nuzzled her head getting up, "But I will protect you and teach you to be a strong warrior." Echostar said softly to her, "I know you can do it." She said. Leafpaw looked up surprised and smiled sheepishly nodding her head, "T-Thank you Echostar..." She said before she got up, "I am r-ready." She said, Echostar nodded, "Then we'll start with hunting training. I have hidden a dead mouse... can you find it?" She asked. Leafpaw smiled sheepishly and nodded her head, "O-Okay..." She said and went looking.

She ended up finding the mouse under a bed of leaves near a log and bounded back to Echostar holding it up sheepishly, Echostar smiled and nodded her head in approval, "See I knew you could do it... now let's practice stalking through the grass." She said as she showed her how after letting her enjoy the mouse, the two spend most of the morning training, slowly getting Leafpaw more confident in her abilities.

Leafpaw noticed the other apprentices playing and it made her nervous, she shivered and looked away gently. She didn't want to be made fun of again so she didn't bother walking over to talk to them. In her haste she didn't notice Quietpaw sitting before her and ended up bumping into her, she startled the shy she-cat who jumped in surprise and tumbled tripping over her paws. Wolfpaw swiftly ran over and nuzzled Quietpaw softly checking over her, "You okay?" He asked. Quietpaw nodded meekly, Smallpaw and Rainpaw also came over to check if she was okay. Leafpaw was surprised, despite falling over and making a fool of herself everyone was worried about her but didn't make fun of her. Wolfpaw looked up at Leafpaw who pinned her ears back tightly, "O-Oh... I-I am sorry... I-I didn't see... you. I am so s-s-sorry!" She said meekly dipping her head. Quietpaw blinked surprised and looked up at her sheepishly and got up slowly with Wolfpaw's help before she smiled sheepishly and nodded her head at Leafpaw.

Leafpaw blinked when she nodded her head, she tilted her head softly. Quietpaw pinned her ears back and whispered to Wolfpaw gently, Wolfpaw nodded his head, "Quietpaw is shy... but she says it's okay." He said. "It was an accident." He added afterwards. Quietpaw nodded meekly, she was shy and didn't talk much to those she didn't know and she didn't really know Leafpaw much. Leafpaw relaxed, "T-Thank you... I'm sorry..." She said softly. Smallpaw smiled, "I have a great idea! Play with us!" He said, "P-Play?" Leafpaw asked surprised, "M-Me?" She asked. "Of course you! You can play hunters and prey with us!" He beamed excitedly before bouncing over to her, "I'll teach you how to play." he said flicking his tail. "First someone is the hunter." he said, "Then the rest go and hide around camp." He said, "The hunter has to find all the prey and then they win the game! But if the prey manages to reach the moss ball before the hunter finds them they win!" He explained before sitting down, "So wanna play?" he asked.

Leafpaw looked at the others quietly before she smiled sheepishly, she had never been invited to play before and she was actually really happy they offered. "O-Okay." She agreed gently, perhaps they were nice after all and they could all be friends... instead of picking on her. She was still wary of them but she wanted to give them a chance, after all it was only fair. "Since you are new, you can be the hunter first!" Smallpaw said tagging her softly before he ran off swiftly to hide, Wolfpaw bolted with Quietpaw swiftly to hide and Rainpaw smiled, "Thank you for playing with us... don't forget to close your eyes and count to 10. Smallpaw forgot that part." he chuckled smiling before he ran off to hide as well. Leafpaw blinked surprised before she closed her eyes counted to 10 slowly before she opened her eyes and smiled softly as she looked around to catch all the prey hiding in camp. Leafpaw played with the other apprentices for the rest of the day and soon enough became good friends with everyone.

"I want to be stronger... so I don't lose anyone else I love. I want to protect all my friends, but I'm scared... what if I am not good enough?" - Leafpaw

r e l a t i o n s h i p s
Echostar
Leafpaw is very close to Echostar, she enjoys spending her time training and hunting with her as she reminds her a lot of her own mother. She takes her time every day getting to know Echostar better and is slowly opening up to her mentor.

Softfeather
A motherly she-cat who Leafpaw likes very much, she is kind and nice to her and was the one who first brought her to Echoclan, she thanks Softfeather almost everyday for saving her life.

Ebonyears
Leafpaw likes the skittish tom, he is mates with Softfeather and also helped to bring her back to the clan. She enjoys how shy he is because it makes her feel better about being nervous herself. She will often go to hear his silly stories and sometimes turns to him for wisdom.

Rainpaw
Leafpaw gets along well with Rainpaw and sometimes goes to talk to him, he is a very calm tom who taught her about letting her worries melt away with the rain. He also helps to give her confidence that she didn't know she had inside of her.

Quietpaw
She kind of gets along with Quietpaw, the shy she-cat doesn't talk to her but still they have some form of understanding, she enjoys playing Hunters and Prey with her because she is very good at the game.

Smallpaw
Striking, loud and often getting a little to close for comfort Smallpaw kind of makes Leafpaw nervous, he is so bright and cheerful towards her and she isn't really used to that amount of energy. He isn't a bad tom at all, in fact she sometimes admires how brave he is. It's just sometimes he can be overwhelming.

Wolfpaw
Wolfpaw doesn't talk to her much unless he is talking for Quietpaw, he seems like a stoic tom that doesn't talk much. Leafpaw is a little shy to try and talk to him because he really doesn't look like the type of tom who wants to talk, the complete opposite of Smallpaw.

The Rest
Leafpaw is pretty new to the clan and outside of those select members she doesn't really talk to many of the others. Shadowstep scares her so she doesn't even go anywhere near her. Emberfall always seems busy, though she does appear nice to her. Foxflare snaps at her for getting in the way sometimes so she avoids her like the black-cough. Ravenmoon is the medicine cat and is always doing something else, she also seems a little intimidating. Lastly there is Silentclaw, the brave deputy sometimes he is talking with Echostar, but Leafpaw isn't really sure how to talk to him... he seems like a really nice tom but she is afraid of saying hello. She doesn't really know any of these members very well but perhaps she will get to know them once she has worked up the courage to get to know them. At least most of them of course.

Leafpaw's favourite season so far as been Leaf-Fall, she deeply enjoys running through the falling leaves with her fellow apprentices and playing Hunters and Prey. She is extremely good at hiding among the leaves because the top of her pelt blends right in. She feels great joy in watching the leaves fall down gracefully from the trees, she also finds a tranquil bliss in jumping into piles of leaves and hiding in them. Leafpaw wishes it could be Leaf-Fall all the time but understands there are other seasons for a reason.
