WHITEWOLFββ an anti-social, cold, distant, aloof, yet fair and observant medicine cat of thornclan βββ
open for: friends, possibly a love interest, and siblings/kin β regarding friends and romantic relationships, because whitewolf is so distant and makes a point of not exactly growing attached to any of his peers, they'd need something to set them apart from the others. perhaps they could've grown closer due to them having an injury/illness/recently deceased or wounded friend, or perhaps someone's out here having strange dreams and is coming to the medicine den to talk about it because they're so freaked out? either way, he'd need a reason to grow attached and in romance, he's slow and steady for sure, so expect a slow-burn! ββββ
basics: whitewolf, medicine cat, he/him, tom, 26 moons, bisexual

ROACHββ an arrogant, mean-spirited, fierce, hard-working, determined, and insanely skilled rogue follower βββ
open for: friends, future love interest, past love interest/s, kits from past litters, enemies, a hard-core rival β so... roach is an interesting character. he's definitely an antagonist and coded like a typical villain, but i swear there's more to him than just that! he grew up weak and pathetic and almost died, so now he spends his days ensuring he'll remain strong, powerful, and skilled. he's a typical macho warrior (think tigerclaw at the start of the series) and he's a total douche. he's a "womanizer", but with cats of all genders, and half the time he likes flirting with cats in front of other cats who like them just to assert dominance. he generally enjoys bullying others weaker than him, but if they're too weak, why even bother? so kits and apprentices, and some young warriors, are safe. because of his cruddy personality, his relationships are all up in the air! he could either have friends and a love interest that are good at heart and help "fix" his bad attitude problem... or he could have someone in his life that makes him worse. both sound great to me! additionally, due to his heart-eater nature, he's definitely had a few ex-flings ending in kits, and he'd probably be an absent father in that regard unless they're strong fighters and worthy of his attention, so any kits or past mates of his are open. i'd like him to have a rival of some sort that he's obsessed with being better than. ββββ
basics: roach, he/him, bisexual, rogue follower, 35-55 moons

past friend: muttrunner β when times were different, mutty and roach ran together in a group. they know each other quite well, maybe a little
too well, considering whenever they cross paths, they're often seen attempting to blackmail the other. well, okay, that's not entirely true. roach is the one always attempting to blackmail, poke, and prod muttrunner, cockily threatening to tell thornclan about their shared and intricate past, filled with all the things they did together -- both good, and bad. yet muttrunner manages just fine, meeting roach levelheadedly and swiftly putting him back in his place by threatening him back... they have a complicated relationship. certainly not friends. but something else. a relationship where, if roach needs inside information on thornclan, he can go to muttrunner... but the cost is hefty, and almost not worth it. on the other hand, roach is willing to sell out his fellow rogues for a good price, but only to muttrunner. he trusts no other filthy clan cat... and though he doesn't trust muttrunner either, he understands him, which is almost the same thing. ββ probably the only cat to call muttrunner by his old name, mutty, and likes dangling the name over his head ββ would honestly fight alongside muttrunner if ever in a conflict, "for old time's sake" ββ ...roach is quite fond of him. he'd rather skin his own pelt than ever admit that, but he enjoys their strange interactions ββ
history: they crossed paths when roach was going through his weakling era. he was thin, frail, tiny, and young; clearly malnourished and barely clinging to life. mutty was doing much better in all aspects and, for reasons roach still doesn't understand, took him in. they travelled with a group but for a bit of time, roach only knew mutty. they had a symbiotic relationship, where roach would play a damsel in distress and lure unsuspecting cats in, and mutty would make sure roach wasn't killed by cats stronger than him. eventually, roach grew stronger... it's a long story, really, but they had a bit of conflict. when mutty left, roach was furious, which only made him grow more attached to mutty, hence why he still tries to keep in contact with the now muttrunner.
FAWNSPOTSββ an emotionally-distant, snappy, on edge thornclan queen mourning the death of her last litter, and also dreading the birth of her next βββ
open for: a friend or two, one that she's grown distant with. a mate, or a recently-made ex-mate, who is trying to keep her grounded in her insanity but probably growing frustrated. he'd be the father of her incoming litter, so that could push him away from her, or pull him closer depending on your thoughts! that's basically it... but open for a past apprentice, perhaps? that'd be interesting. i think it'd be neat for her to have siblings that are at a stage of their life where they want kits too! ββββ
basics: fawnspots, she/her, heterosexual, thornclan queen. 35 moons old
FURZEPAWββ an awkward, clumsy, shy, soft-spoken, and painfully insecure young warrior apprentice of thornclan βββ
open for: a mentor, friends, and a budding love interest! i don't really think rivals or enemies are his forte; they'd stress him out too much. but he's definitely open for having cats that really dislike and/or tease and bully him -- not nessecarily like bullies, just in the ignorant way children do when another kid is different from the rest. regarding friends (and/or love interest), it'd be funny if they were really popular, social, and well-liked by the clan, like an extrovert that's adopted an introvert. frankly adorable if you ask me. i can see his mentor either being super brotherly/sisterly and over-protective, constantly jumping in to help him from his awkward situations, or being the complete opposite: an utter douche that makes his life harder. both sound fun to me! ββββ
basics: furzepaw, he/him, tom, 00 moons, unknown sexuality but possibly homosexual or bisexual
LEECHFANGββ a bubbly, energetic, and talkative warrior of thornclan with a heavy lisp due to the size of her fangs βββ
open for: friendship, romance, an apprentice, and kin! i feel like she'd be generally well-liked around the clan, although a little annoying, so she's open for a bunch of different relationships! the only thing is, i can't exactly see her having many enemies. she'd be unaware of a cat disliking her, so it's definitely possible a few cats cannot STAND how talkative she is, but she'd never notice. if she were to be a mentor, she'd have to have an apprentice who can... handle an enthusiastic mentor who goes off on random tangents mid-lesson ββββ
basics: leechfang, she/her, she-cat, 40~ moons, bisexual
xxxxxxx ββββ
best friend: muttrunner β she and the ex-rogue have an interesting dynamic. leechfang is 10000% certain that they're the bestest of friends; she's constantly seen bounding around him, talking enthusiastically about the color of the dark sky or the latest dream she's had, hell, she's even seen crashing into him with a pheasant to share, even when he's clearly wanting to be alone... now, the thing is, she really annoys him. but she doesn't see how annoying she is. most of the clan is certain he cannot stand her. truthfully, he's actually grown quite fond of her annoying behavior!! the world is quiet and without her constant barrage of worthless speech, it gets lonely. plus, she's one of the only cats who really talks to or approaches him; most others are too scared of his large stature, or wary of his past as a rogue. they really are besties for the resties -- whether muttrunner likes it or not! ββ leechfang would honestly die for muttrunner ββ she doesn't really get why her clanmates can be wary of him. he's not scary! sure, she's never seen him laugh, or smile, or... look even remotely happy around her. but he's great! he's muttrunner! you silly guys don't need to be scared of him! he's a total sweetheart, really, she swears!
SMOKEPAW/SMOKESNEEZEββ a playful, mischevious, stubborn, haughty, and immature apprentice she-cat of thornclan βββ
open for: friends, enemies, rivals, love interests, and a mentor! the whole shebang! for her mentor, i think she needs someone who can make her listen. either that, or it'd be hilarious if she disrespected her mentor too and they just could NOT wrangle her. no in between. friendship-wise, she's capable of befriending literally anyone, but she doesn't like cats who are super awkward. she's a bit judgemental and thinks they're weird ββββ
basics: smokepaw, she/her, she-cat, 8-12 moons, unknown sexuality
SIRENSIGHββ a tired, soft-spoken senior warrior tom-cat of thornclan; he's the leader's brother and has a kid she seriously dotes on βββ
open for: an ex/current wife and mother to his kid/s, a friend he's known since his apprenticeship, an apprentice. he's pretty sick of all the weird things that happen to and around him, so he tries to live the most mundane, boring, and "normal" life he possibly can! so don't be surprised if he's the sorta dude that would only do small-talk and then casually drop in the most life-shattering information without realizing its impacts ββββ
basics: sirensigh, he/him, tom-cat, 00 moons, heterosexual
