Willowheart
NightClan | Warrior |
21 moons | She-cat |
appearance
there is nothing overly impressive about the she-cat. willowheart’s body is fairly average, though she is on the slightly shorter side. the she-cat’s narrow through the shoulders, and her haunches. her legs are thin, but kind of stocky, slightly unproportionate to the rest of her body. her body is rippling with lean muscles, making her incredibly agile, and a formidable fighter in high speed combat. willowheart is relatively skinny so much so that her hip bones and shoulder blades are quite noticeable. the she-cats paws are wide set, and cause her to be clumsy, despite her agility. her head is wide through the crown with her ears set on the outside of her skull. the she-cats head is short the top of her head to the tip of her muzzle. willowhearts cheeks are slightly wider than her crown and narrows at her maw.
willowheart’s lean body is covered in a messy blanket of varying hues of grey. her stomach is a lighter grey than the rest of her body, and there are flecks of almost black along her spine and towards the base of her tail. her legs are wrapped in slightly darker greys than the predominant grey of the rest of her pelt. along her ribs it looks like someone took a feather brush to it, blending the darker grey of her predominant pelt into the lighter shades of her under belly. her pelt is long and completely matted, from her chest all the way to her tail. the she-cats pelt makes her look completely larger than she actually is. the fur upon her legs wraps around and feathers out on the back of her legs. the she-cats face is mottled, and there are black stripes over the inside of her eyes. dark grey lines extend at the end of each of her eyes, as if someone applied eyeliner to her. the top of her nose is a light gray, and her whiskers are white. the she-cats eyes are a lovely green colour, almost completely solid in colour, and bright.

personality
of all the things that willowheart wants to be known for, being kind is the most important thing for her. she tries her absolute hardest to say kind words to everyone she meets, even if it physically pains her to be nice to them. she fears being seen as mean so she does everything in her power to prove to cats she meets that she is a genuinely nice cat. this can be seen as being overly friendly and off-putting for cats that she rubs the wrong way, and she has been known to push friends away by always having a smile on her face and being chipper even if it is the early morning hours. she is a great cat to talk to, as she will try to cheer you up no matter what you are going through. she has a huge heart and truly cares for her clanmates.
an admirable feature that most notice about her is her reluctance to back down from a confrontation, or disagreement. she stands strongly by her morals, and will defend herself to the death. on top of this, she is extremely determined to achieve greatness, and nothing will stand in her way once she gets her mind set on something. this can be both a positive attribute and a negative one. on the one hand she is a determined warrior and hunter, and will pursue her prey until her paws bleed. she very rarely fails in her hunts, and when she does she will sit silently while trying to figure out what went wrong. on the other side she can sometimes hard to get home after a patrol. she is so determined to get as many kills as possible that she has to be forced to go back to camp. this causes for some ugly scenes where she is so in the hunting mode that talking to her is like talking to a brick wall.

something that she keeps hidden from almost everyone is the fact that she is extremely self-conscious. she doesn't think she is good enough to be a warrior, which can result in her being very defensive when it comes to any kind of criticism about her abilities as a warrior. still being fairly young, she has no faith in what the future will bring. she has it set in her mind that she is a bad warrior, and only kept around for her hunting abilities. her defensive nature, while being sweet as sugar, can cause her to lash out with her words, and then sit and sulk in the warriors den about how rude she was. she doesn't mean to be a pain, or a disappointment to the clan, but she truly feels like she is worthless and that she will never amount to anything worth while.

background
the she-cats parents were some of the most loved warriors in the clan. both of them were extremely hard working and strong, able-bodied providers for the clan. her mother was the snarky one, with a sassy comment to throw at anyone at anytime, though it was all in good fun. her father was the softer of the two, compassion oozing from his body. they were thrilled when they discovered they were pregnant, and being as strong as she was, her pregnancy was easy, and so was her birth. she gave birth to four absolutely adorable kits, all varying colours of tabby.
the youngest kit, was given the name willowkit. in her early moons of life, she was always bubbly and in a good mood. it didn't matter if she was cold, or hungry, she always had a smile permanently etched upon her features. she loved her siblings and her parents more than anything in the world, and lived to please all of them. she would play with her siblings even if she was tired and all she wanted to do was sleep, and if her mother wanted her to come inside the den and go to sleep, she was more than happy to oblige. however, she wasn't blind to the fact that her siblings were larger than she was, and more aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and thus started her self-doubt.
her apprenticeship went off without a hitch. she was given a mentor with the same kind of demeanour as her and they got along great. her mentor became another cat she wanted to please and so she worked her tail off to be successful as an apprentice. unfortunately, she wasn't progressing as fast as her siblings and she grew more and more self-conscious of her abilities, or in her eyes, lack there of. she constantly wanted to train to become as good as her siblngs, but as her mentor told her, there are only so many hours in a day, and they both needed to sleep and eat.
when it was time to be made a warrior, she kept her doubt buried deep within her heart as it ate away at her day after day. she was given the name willowheart for her kind nature and for her dedication to the clan. now, at twenty-one moons, the she-cat still battles with her own mind, a crippling affliction.
