βββ [Appearance] βββ
"Large, medium-haired brown tabby tom with murky green eyes."
Ribbitbelly is a bulky tom who towers over most apprentices. While he's plumper than other warriors, it's mostly fluff. His medium-length brown fur is longer at the belly region, and often weighed down with clumps of mud, so it makes him seem bigger than he appears. This size could be intimidating in battle, but Ribbitbelly is such a sweet furball that few cats could ever fear him. He struggles to fight another cat. Instead, this young warrior spends most of his time hunting by the water. His brown tabby fur blends well with the mud he wades in, allowing him to wait in patient camouflage before he strikes his prey. Even when he's hidden on the hunt, his warm green eyes will light up when he sees a friend.
βββ [Basic Personality] βββ
(+) patient, supportive, loyal, wise, sensitive to others' emotions
(n) follows the warrior code, laid-back, stable
(-) lazy, unambitious, ignores problems, neglects himself for the sake of others
βββ [Personality] βββ
Nothing could make Ribbitbelly happier than a lazy day of fishing by the lake, followed by a long evening of sharing tongues and eating with his friends. He listens closely to his friends' tales and sometimes offers stories of his own. He's a cat you can vent to, or look to for advice. A gentle soul with a good-natured glow in his eyes. Ribbitbelly is a humble tom, wanting nothing more than to keep his clanmates safe and fed. In times of hardship, he tries to be a rock for them to rely on--- a constant source of patience and optimism no matter how difficult things become. By helping others, he unknowingly forces down his own feelings. He bears his pain alone. When the half-clan and outsider cats were exiled, his loyalty to his loved ones tore him apart. Ribbitbelly cares deeply for cats on both sides. He has always stuck closely to the warrior code, hardly ever neglecting his duties or disobeying orders. But what can he do if he doesn't agree with his leader?
βββ [History] βββ
After a difficult pregnancy, Ribbitkit was born as the only kit in the litter. His parents, Minnowstream and Birchheart, took great pride in their son. Minnowstream came from a long line of fishing cats, who had fished for the clan for generations. Though the quiet she-cat cared little about connecting with her clanmates, she always found solace by the water. And so she named her kit after the ribbiting of the frogs at the Great Lake's edge. Birchheart had never stopped reaching out to Minnowstream, eventually winning her friendship and her heart. Ribbitkit took a lot after his warm, gentle father. As a kit and apprentice, Ribbitpaw ended up being a voice of reason for his friends. He'd go along on their pranks and misadventures, stopping them before they went too far. The young cat quickly built up a reputation for his large appetite and iron stomach. Most Gladeclan cats fondly remember the time Ribbitpaw downed a slimy toad so other cats could have the last squirrel on the fresh-kill pile. Perhaps that was the inspiration for his warrior name.
After becoming a warrior, Ribbitbelly was content to keep up his warrior duties for the rest of his life. He had no further dreams of glory, only the hope of settling down with a mate to have kits of his own. Though he discouraged his mother from trying for kits a second time, since her first was so difficult, his parents insisted. Birchheart especially wanted new little kits to love. This time, the pregnancy went smoothly. Rather than Minnowstream being hurt, it was Birchheart who fell ill. He died of greencough a mere moon before the kits were born. Devastated at losing his beloved father, Ribbitbelly swallowed his pain to be a good son and brother. He would protect Splashpaw with his life, even if it meant putting a stop to her silly shenanigans. Worse, only six moons after his father's death, Palestar took control. Ribbitbelly couldn't bear to drive out his friends and clanmates, cats he considered family. He tried to pull fighting cats off each other, tried to talk sense into enraged cats, tried to keep the clan together. He failed. Now, the young tom is terrified of the monsters he watched the Gladeclan cats become. To remain a loyal clanmate, he hides his misgivings and buries himself in his duties. If only he could save his sister from walking down the same dark path.

"Shorthaired, silver tabby she-cat with ice blue eyes and a bright patch of white fur."
With a splash of white fur on her front legs, chest, and face, this young cat looks like she'd jumped head-first into a puddle of water. The rest of her pelt is a clean, shiny silver, with mackerel tabby stripes down her sides. Once her turquoise blue eyes latch onto a target, she'll cut through anything in her way to reach it. Splashpaw has strong hind legs for bouncing around, so she manages to get her paws into everything. A good mentor could help her use her energy to become a better battler and hunter. She's still young and can't do either well, but her battle skills far exceed her poor hunting skills.
βββ [Basic Personality] βββ
(+) eager, takes initiative, determined, fierce, brave
(n) curious, ambitious, talkative, spontaneous
(-) bossy, impatient, tactless, arrogant, dramatic
βββ [Personality] βββ
Splashpaw is the kind of cat who wants all eyes on her. She strives to become a leader someday, but in all the wrong ways and for all the wrong reasons. She'll do whatever is necessary for other cats to like her, to be considered "good". Even if that means naively following along with Palestar's cruel orders. With her flair for the dramatic, she struggles to hunt because she only targets the biggest, showiest prey. More often than not she ends up with nothing at all. Though she drags her paws when it's time to hunt, Splashpaw trains in earnest. She works hard to best all the other apprentices in battle. Splashpaw has a rebellious streak when most warriors try to deal with her, but she'll follow her mentor's orders. Sometimes. While she might not listen, she loves to talk and boss other apprentices around. She can be insufferable now, but someday she may learn the true meaning of leadership. Her courage and persistence could prove strong assets in protecting the clan. But one way or another, Splashpaw intends to make a splash.
βββ [History] βββ
Splashpaw was born into Minnowstream and Birchheart's second litter, with Ribbitbelly as her older brother. Her father had died a moon before her birth, causing Minnowstream to become distant and distraught when she was born. Splashkit spent her kithood trying to lead other kits out of camp like mini warriors. They never made it far, of course. Though Ribbitbelly did his best to care for his little sister, she saw him as nothing more than a boring stick-in-the-mud. Her parents and brother were only regular warriors. She wanted more. Splashkit found parental figures elsewhere, in the deputy (Paleflight) and his powerful trusted warriors. When Palestar took power, she believed every word he spoke. His rhetoric seeped into the naive young kit's mind, twisting it. Splashkit thought it was right for the non-full-blooded cats to be exiled from the clan. It would keep her clanmates safe, and also make her that much more special for being pure-blooded. Now an apprentice, Splashpaw's ambitions only continue to grow. She'll do whatever it takes to become powerful, to become a Hawk or even a deputy someday. Unless she realizes her faults, only StarClan knows the kind of cat she'll become...
