(I might have posted this before, I forgot :3)
Hello to you too! No, I haven't seen this character before. Trust me, I'd remember her!
Name Rating: 7/10
Name Type: Canonical/Batman
Name Reasoning: Night- fits her just fine. She is a black cat, even with some white markings. Her suffix, -wing, doesn't really work due to the fact that cats don't have wings, and if you wanted to call her fast (-foot) or an agile climber (-tail) in a fancier way, it'd still be pretty useless.
However, I'm not very interested in her suffix. I'm interested in that injury of hers. This is the first cat on this thread that I've gotten that I think deserves a name-change alluding to an old scar, and I'll explain why.
Name-changes, in the traditional warriors-verse, are used to describe an injury that, even when it heals, is a detriment or disability to the cat that owns it. Take, for example, a cat named Yellowpaw who broke her jaw as an apprentice. She may heal, of course, but her jaw will always look off and she may have trouble speaking or eating. Thus, she's renamed Brokenpaw, and when she becomes a warrior, she is named Brokenjaw. She could also be renamed when she becomes a warrior instead of being renamed right away, so Yellowpaw would become Brokenjaw.
It's an unusual process, and at first glance mean, but the purpose of a name like this is honorable. The leader is calling attention to a missing foot or torn off ears and proudly saying, "We have a warrior in out midst who should have died from this injury, and they won't be able to do as well as they could anymore, but they're still with us and they're strong enough to live until they're in the elder's den." While Bluestar named Brightheart Lostface as a curse to StarClan, it's an accurate name, and she should have kept it.
And your cat's not only survived this, but she's become the deputy! I think she'd have earned this name by now.
Alternative Name: Losteye/One-eye, for the reasons above. If she had lost her eye after becoming a warrior, I would call her Nightclaw, -claw for her fighting skills.
Character Rating: 7/10
Character Reasoning: You've given this cat a good trait for any deputy to have, which is ambition. I think that you should give her a little more than that, though. Does she have any cats she's interested in? Does she hate kits and avoid them at all costs? Does she have a flair for puns and have a record of wheeling them off until the leader threatens to rank her down to apprentice again? Maybe during leaf-bare she gets a headache, and will complain of phantom pains to the medicine cat, who has to patiently explain to her that some cats get odd feelings in old wounds when storms come around. Perhaps she can be immature sometimes, and finds some sort of kinship with apprentices.

Gender: Male
Image/Description: A brown tabby tom with gold eyes. He has many scars, notably his shredded ear, a long scar on his left flank, a small scar on the side of his muzzle and a thin scar along his belly. Currently I am using this picture in his forms.
Clan: In roleplay, he's in whatever Clan I join xD If he was in the books, he'd probably be in either ThunderClan or ShadowClan.
Rank: Senior warrior/deputy.
Personality/Skills: A serious, no nonsense tom with a sharp tongue, witty mind and a rather aggressive attitude, Eaglestrike walks with a gait that demands respect and almost causes fear. He's quick to judge and even quicker to jump into battle with unsheathed claws and bared teeth, but he is unmistakably loyal and would risk his life for any cat within the Clan, no matter if they be the tiniest scrap of fur or the slowest and deafest elder. A smart mind, he'll think up plans that use the terrain to the full or weaken the enemy with waves of attacks. Eaglestrike certainly doesn't seem the kindest tom, with a rough, rugged exterior that is hard to break through, but he is undeniably a strong warrior and a good mentor. Stubborn he may be, not giving up an argument without good reason and full of pride that won't let him stand down from a fight but it can't be denied that Eaglestrike is a good warrior, although it may take some time to gain his trust.
Important Notes: He's an excellent fighter and a powerful hunter, mostly due to his strength, although it does mean he isn't as fast as some of the smaller, more agile cats. He gained his suffix for the way he kills his prey (and sometimes attacks) with downward strokes of his huge paws, sometimes with surprise and ambush from behind, if the need arises, although he prefers to attack head-on, as attacking from behind could be classed as cowardice.

Name: Sunstar
Gender: Female
Clan: EagleClan
Rank: Leader
Personality/Skills: Sunstar is very hard to describe. She's tough, and hard to get to, mean and cold at first. But as you get to know her, she seems to soften a bit and become more warm. She's just emotionally unstable due to her past, and tends to have cases of anxiety at times. She's wise once you get to know her, and she's very motherly to her clan, but she will lie about her feelings.
Important Notes: She's decently old, 46 moons, yet is still a great fighter in her day <3
