| | JAYLEAF THUNDERCLAN • 98 MOONS • PEPPERSTORM'S FATHER image used. - note: you do not have to use this cat. the elderly father of pepperstorm . could be an elder or a senior warrior but he would be on the cusp of retirement. he partnered with his mate aspenfur later in life and they struggled to conceive. when they finally managed the pregnancy placed great strain on her body and, ultimately, she passed in labour. one of their kits was stillborn, the other only survived a night, leaving only pepperkit. he named his two lost kits privately over their graves (you can name them if you'd like!) to send them to starclan. he overcompensated after that, doting on and spoiling his son. he's the most important cat in pepperstorm's life. |
| | HEATHERSHADE WINDCLAN • 28+ MOONS • AMBERPAW’S MOTHER image used. - note: you do not have to use this cat. heathershade is many things; fierce, skilled, dedicated to the protection of her clan, beautiful – but she is not a natural nurturer. the day she was named a warrior remains the best of her life and she dedicated her life to the betterment of windclan; it was this patriotism which lead her to having a litter of kits, future warriors for windclan and, really, just the done thing. she had them young (any time after 18 moons or so i think) and it became rapidly apparent that she was not at all naturally inclined towards her new role. she found the nursery suffocating, the itch beneath her skin to get out into the world, to regain her capacity as a warrior and run the moors was more than she could take. every moment she could spend outside the nursery she did, leaving her kits to fend for themselves as soon as they were able. amberpaw thinks she never cared about them, that she dismissed them when they were able to move on their own and considered her job done once they were weaned. the TRUTH of this is entirely up to you. does she regret it now? was she simply scared and overwhelmed by the role of mother? was she legitimately simply unable to form a connection with her litter? also open to interpretation are her feelings for brightstripe, its possible that he was just a means to an end but maybe they were friends or actually in love, its totally up to you. i’d love to see her on site to get to know her reasons and to see if any sort of relationship between her and amberpaw could be salvaged. name can be changed! |
| | BRIGHTSTRIPE WINDCLAN • 28+ MOONS • AMBERPAW’S FATHER image used. - note: you do not have to use this cat. brightstripe i see as young and either deeply, deeply overwhelmed by the whole concept of being a father or simply of the belief that the kits were no longer any of his responsibility once they were born. perhaps he had this agreement with heathershade, perhaps he simply avoided the nursery because the idea of parenting them was terrifying and overwhelming. he’s a TOTAL blank slate, as is his relationship with heathershade and whether or not he’s interested in any relationship with his kits as they grow. name can be changed! |
| | WASPPAW WINDCLAN • 10 MOONS • AMBERPAW’S SISTER image used. - note: you do not have to use this cat. amberpaw and his sisters were wild children. unsupervised by largely absent parents they ran amuck throughout the camp and caused chaos wherever they went. their personalities are TOTALLY open, so are their names and as is how close they are as a litter but i have some rough suggestions. wasppaw i feel was the most aggressive of the litter, the largest physically and the best fighter, she takes after her mother’s natural warrior spirit but she has the same lack of relationship with their parents as amberpaw and pebblepaw so she probably doesn’t much like the comparison and is determined to excel despite them. name can be changed! |
| | PEBBLEPAW WINDCLAN • 10 MOONS • AMBERPAW’S SISTER image used. - note: you do not have to use this cat. amberpaw and his sisters were wild children. unsupervised by largely absent parents they ran amuck throughout the camp and caused chaos wherever they went. their personalities are TOTALLY open, so are their names and as is how close they are as a litter but i have some rough suggestions. pebblepaw i feel is the quietest of the litter, though likely not exactly shy, more the sort of cat who sits back and observes, plans and then acts. she’s cunning and clever, and applies those to her training. potentially actually the most deeply angry about their parent’s neglect, it’s always the quiet ones after all. name can be changed! |
| | OAKCLAW SHADOWCLAN • 32 MOONS • FOXSTEP’S BROTHER image used. - note: please do use this cat, he has a whole album of over 1k photos to choose from. oakclaw is the littermate and only other kit from ravenwhisker’s first litter. he’s noted as being brave, having as an apprentice lost an eye fighting off an owl which tried to snatch up foxstep when they snuck out to practice battle moves the night before one of their mid-training battle assessments. due to this he spent a few moons confined to camp and was named later than his sister. the rest of the details of his life are totally up to you! has he had an apprentice? has he got a mate? any kits? also what his thoughts on their mystery father are is up to you. name can be changed! i love oak as a prefix but suffix is totally open and maybe another strong tree for prefix? cedar? or a bird of prey?? |
