Gender: Female
Age: 27 Moons
Family?: Dappledblossom never really knew the true meaning of family till she had come across Alderstar. Before then, she had lived with her so called "family". She had been abandoned by her original parents when she was only 2 moons old and had been taken in by a group of savage cats. These cats often took advantage of Dappledblossom, peer-pressuring her into doing battles and mocking her when she didn't follow their commands. "Come on, Blossom! Why won't you attack them. They're weaker than you... or are you just a coward?" "You're such a kit, Blossom. There are no 'Ancestors' to punish you for stealing that mother's kits".

She longed for an escape from the group, but she knew if she did they'd find her and wouldn't let her eat prey for an entire 2 days. She tried convincing herself that she was at fault and they were treating her right. The thoughts would always keep nagging at her, "They aren't even your original family, don't do this to yourself." "Your better off running away, you'll be free. Don't you want that?". "SHUT UP!" Blossom yowled to herself. Her two so-called 'parents' had turned to her, a look of pure confusion on their face. "Are you talking to me?" hissed her "sister", "No.." Blossom stuttered, stepping back, "N-no of course.. not". And the family continued their hike through the wood. Occasionally Blossom's sister and brother would give her a glance. Finally when the moon had risen in the inky black sky and stars began popping out like fireflies, the broken family had stopped to rest. As Blossom had begun to get situated on her nest of leaves and feathers from a blue-jay they had hunted. Her eyelids felt like all of her troubles had been placed in them, ready to doze off she slumped to her side. "Hey" she heard the raspy voice of her father whisper in her ear. She jolted in response, and glared up in fear, "Uh.. Ye-Yeah, Dad-" "Don't call me that we both know your siblings can only call me that" he hissed in response. "S-S-Sorry... Cedar" she stuttered. "You better start acting grateful for us. We took you in, we can take you out". "I'd rather be taken out".

Rank: Solis Hunter

Gender: Trans Male
Age: 36 Moons
Family?:
Sparrow has a very complicated view of family, having not been born into the Tides and tends to split his view of his life in two: Before Feather and After Feather (B.F. and A.F., if you will). Before Feather brings him to a time of pain and fear, of his parents and siblings mocking him for who he was. Sure, his meow was a little higher than he'd like and sure his pelt matched that of his sisters and mother, but that didn't change who he was inside and that took him a very long time to cope with, going as far as leaving behind the farm he'd grown up on and travelling the world.

That, of course, brings us to After Feather. His sweet mate, Feather, who he found running terrified through a village as he was nearing the end of his journey. His adoring Feather, who'd accepted him for who he was and snapped at anyone who tried to say different. His soft Feather, who cuddles with him happily, when one of them wakes up from a nightmare. Sparrow has no idea how he wound up with a she-cat as caring as is, but he knows that without his previous hardships, he wouldn't be the tom he is now.

Sparrow is not grateful for the hate spewed at him in his early life, but he will never forget how strong it made him or how devoted he is to his family now.

Cat Name: Leafstorm
Clan: AuroraClan
Rank: Warrior
Gender: Female
Age: 35 moons
Family?:

Leafstorm and her brother Smokefang were born into an extended family of sorts. There was a group of queens in the city that stuck together for protection against the more aggressive city cat groups. And when this group began to have kits, they decided to raise all of the kittens together in an old abandoned building in the heart of their territory. The group was small and consisted of three queens and 9 kits. Leafstorm considered all of the cats her family. The queens became her aunts/other mothers and the other kits became her siblings and friends. The group hunted together and trained each other when the kits got older. However, when Leafstorm and Smokefang where 9 moons old, some two-legs found out about the group. They separated the entire family and sent them off to shelters.

Leafstorm was heartbroken, and resolved to escape. She memorized the pattern of shift change and planned her escape. She waited until it was dark, and using her paws unlocked her cage like she had seen the two-legs to.
"Do any of you want to come with me?" She asked the other caged cats as she jumped to the floor.
None of the other cats responded, and Leafstorm left with disgust.

For the next few moons she wandered as a rogue, her heard jaded and afraid to open up once more. The loss of her family began to truly hit her. When she had been in the shelter she had been too focused on escape to process her loss. The grief nearly blinded her and she wondered aimlessly.
Eventually she stumbled into AuroraClan's territory, where she met Frostbreeze. The tom helped her to open up again. He and Ravenstar knew what it was like to lose one's family. With time, Leafstorm healed, and began to be happy once more. She became fiercely protective of her clan, becoming a mother-hen to her new friends. She especially became protective of the apprentices, becasue they were the age when the lost her family. And she was determined to never let any cats under her protection go through that pain again.

Three mooons after she settled into her new clan, Smokefang stumbled into tthe terrrioty. He had managed to escape as well. Leafstorm was overjoyed and her brother joined the clan.

The tabby proved to be even more protective than she is, and Leafstorm knows that between the two of them, nothing can hurt the clan.

Frostbreeze(NPC):
Leafstorm is very close with Frosbreeze, the tom helped her heal from her ordeal, and showed her that it was possible to move on without forgetting those she lost. She enjoys pulling pranks on him too, since he never seems to expect it, no matter how many times she pranks him.

Tippaw, the Apprentice

Parenting is rarely easy, and being a single parent is even less so. Jan was aware of this fact, yet she did not consider it an excuse. She had been raised to believe that family came before anything else. This, she agreed with. Jan always thought it was vital to care for family members. By working together, everyone could have a better life, which was something Jan felt her loved ones deserved. She dreamed of a family of loving, kind, considerate cats who were happy yo help simply because they thought she was as worthwhile as she thought they were. Even if a cat was rendered unable to survive on their own due to illness, injury, or age, they would still be taken care of. Everyone would do what they could, and that genuine effort would be enough.
All this, Jan believed, and yet she found herself confronted with the cruel realities of selfishness at a mere seven moons of age. The older she grew, the more she came to resent her father. At first, she did not going off alone to search for food for the two of them, or seeing to it that her father's nest was always fresh and soft. He was family, and she loved him, so she did as he asked. Besides, a three-moon-old kit could hardly be expected to know any better. Yet, as the moons wore on, Jan started to wonder why she worked to hard to feed her adult father, when he hardly ever did anything for himself. She wondered why he insisted on being well-cared for so that he could "protect" her, when she had never seen him lift a claw against another cat. It even occurred to Jan how he never said anything to her except to tell her an order or complain about something. Though she told him every morning and every night, Jan could not remember the last time she had heard an "I love you" in return.
She felt used, belittled, betrayed, resentful, and she had enough of it. A real father would not force his daughter to do all the work without so much as a "thank you". No, a real father would be teaching her how to hunt, not demanding that she "figure it out". It did not take long for Jan to fall out of love with her kin, but she retained hope that perhaps the family of her dreams was out there, somewhere. She watched and waited patiently for an opportunity to leave her miserable life and start over.

When she heard of Fractureclan's formation, she aspired to join them. She saw the benefits of teamwork. It led to a falling-out with her father and she left him for Fractureclan.

Tippaw and Family

What does family mean to her?
Tippaw has closed off her emotions after losing trust in her father and now feels nothing for him.

Do they see their clan as their family, or just a few cats, or do they feel isolated?
Tippaw has closed off her heart and hesitates to trust or bond with her new clanmembers. She is afraid to be vulnerable enough to trust these "outsiders". Tippaw thinks she did the right thing by joining them, but is unsure if she will learn to trust them the way she wants to.

Tippaw's Relationships

Larch is the leader of Fractureclan, and he seems like a more than capable cat for the job. Tippaw believes he wants what is best for everyone, but she has no personal feelings for him. She respects his authority and is suspicious of his authority all at once. Seeing as Larch is also her mentor, Tippaw has plenty of time to get to know Larch better and decide what she really thinks about him.
Pakupaku's calm demeanor makes him easy to be around. He seems reliable and harmless to her, but Tippaw does not feel particularly friendly towards him either. Pakupaku is just another cat in Fractureclan to her.
