    Hello, Whistle.Concert.
    Rabbitface - his suffix is perfect. As long as he met standards for attractiveness when he was made a warrior, -face will always apply. I'm not sure on his prefix, though; rabbit- comes from the European rabbit, which is more of a grey-brown than red-brown. I would find something else, but it's your call. I hope this helps.

    Thistlefang - All excellent. What a cute fellow, too.


    And hello to you, 20lait1~
    Night-, coot-, fly- and starling- are probably your most likely prefixes, but anything from the Black section of Ailuronymy's prefix list is fine. Suffix-wise, -foot or -whisker would fit best, depending on whether his speed or hunting abilities are more outstanding.
    I do have a genetics concern on this fellow. I don't think he can have white paws without white higher up, but I'm not positive; genetics isn't my area. I suggest you check the whitespotting section on this patterns sheet and/or ask Keriae.
    I'm glad I can help. If you have any more questions, go ahead and ask.

    He can have white paws: whitespotting starts from the bottom up. He's likely to have some white on his belly and maybe throat too, if all four paws are entirely white. Otherwise, it's best to go with just the toes.
    However, he can't have "icy" blue eyes. For one, blue eyes are never icy in cats. Secondly, he could only have blue eyes if the whitespotting reaches higher than his eyes on his face - 50-60% whitespotting or above.

    Adderfang. An adder is a brown snake native to England (where the Clans are found) with a black or dark brown pattern down its back, and prefixes are traditionally given for appearance. You said he is "a good fighter", but not that he's excellent or anything; not good enough to warrant the -claw suffix, but skilled enough for -fang.

    Cat 2: Long-haired white cat with green eyes; pale grey markings on the paws, tail, and ears.
    DoctorSherlock wrote:She is very hyper and bouncy. She is also very curious and smart.

    Cloudnose. Cloud- is pretty clear; white with light grey is an apt way to describe a cloud. I suggest -nose for her curiousity; -nose implies a good tracker, which usually comes about from curiosity. If she isn't a good tracker, -fur or -pelt might be more fitting.

    Cat 3: Golden, spotted cat with amber eyes and a white belly.
    DoctorSherlock wrote:He is friendly and caring. He is a medicine cat.

    Beeleaf or Beecloud. Bee is used for a golden tabby, often smaller than average. -leaf is used to denote exceptional skills as a medicine cat; these skills would have to be very apparent by the time he gained his warrior name, and the suffix often means the cat is very intelligent and good at memorisation. -cloud is a personality suffix, and probably more fitting, since that's most of the information you gave me. -cloud cats are friendly, relaxed, and generally very difficult to bother.

    If you have any questions, go ahead and ask.

But my first cat is Adderfang.... What clan is Adderfang in (CatBug's Adderfang), just so it won't be confusing.

    As far as I am aware, CatBug doesn't use Adderfang for any role plays. There shouldn't be a problem~ Having two cats with the same prefix in one Clan is best avoided, anyway.

Oh, I thought CatBug was gonna use Adderfang for this roleplay.

    For FirClan/MoorClan, you mean? No, I don't believe so. You're good.

Hi again :D I have another one.. xD

Name: Petalfoot
Description: Sleek short-haired white she-cat, with green eyes and black spots over her eyes and tail. And muzzle. And paw.
Skill/Personality Notes: She's a skilled hunter and swimmer, kinda chose -foot because of her speed. She's a kind (not so) little cat, and always sees the bright side of every situation. She has a few scars and scratches, but overall, she's an attractive molly. <3

    Hello again, Greystripe! Good to see you again.

    The trouble with petal- is, it's not at all specific. Flowers come in pretty much any colour, so petal- encompasses everything and therefore describes nothing. Depending on how much black is on here, I suggest checking either the Patched or White sections of Grey's prefix list.
    If she's skilled at hunting and swimming, maybe she should be -whisker or -stream? You didn't say she's fast, just that you chose -foot for her speed. Is her speed more notable than her hunting and swimming skills? If you clarify this, I can help a bit more.

Thank you <3

I wasn't all that sure on Petal either, I just thought it sounded pretty ^-^ xD
Her swimming isn't as good as hunting or speed, she doesn't really like to either. Her hunting skills are ace because of her speed... Bit confusing there xD
I'll look at the prefix list, and add what I think here <3
