#palekit meet palepaw!

[mourningsbane]

If anything happens to Palepaw I'm going to drop out of college and become one with the trees.

Out of the corner of his eye, Palepaw sees it, the shadowy lump, and feels every muscle in his body tense with fear. Distantly, he thinks he hears Icypaw still chattering away. Does he not see it, too?

Its small opening begins to stretch, strings of saliva clinging to each misplaced tooth; it lets out a piercing wail, seeming to choke on pieces of itself. As its teeth part and its dead eye rolls to meet his stare, Palepaw feels an overwhelming dread and wills himself to move, to do something—

Cautionary Tale: ??

Story:

In a litter of four, Palekit was born to moor runner Whiteweed. With no kit sharing a trait with any tom in Windclan and Whiteweed firm on keeping the father a secret, rumors were quick to spread. In fact, the kits showed traits unfamilar to the Clan cats. 

This especially applied to Palekit, her pale body making it difficult to differentiate from the white splotches on her frame. With the addition of her strange eyes, many became weary of her.

She was a relatively strange kit, preferring to spend time with the elders over her own littermates.

The elders fed her stories, detailing tales of evil rogues and the importance of Clan life and upholding the warrior code.

Those stories then twisted Palekit into one who followed the warrior code so close, believing she, the medicine cats, and the leader were the only ones who fully understood starclan. 

 When she was finally apprenticed, she was taken under the caring wing of Windclan's medicine cat, Mistystream. Being in a position of power seemed to delude the young she-cat, making her almost zealots with her beliefs of the warrior code. The elders praised her, the other younger cats seemed to avoid her, after all, she stripped anything fun from them.

Not a moon passed when Palepaw was unexpectedly woken in the middle of the night by her mother. She, along with Stormpaw, Snowpaw, and Breezepaw, were taken out of camp, apparently to meet their father.

Her littermates were excited, but Palepaw couldn’t be. With protest from the others, she stormed back to her den. A rogue! Her father was a rogue!

Three moons later, leaf-bare having set in, she had calmed down to a point of normal relaxation. That is, until she traveled to the Moonstone and saw that her littermates had all been mauled by dogs.

Grief tugged painful claws at her heart, swelling her throat, stinging her eyes. How could they have been lied to and left to die, all while Whiteweed knew and did nothing to help?

She kept that resentment to herself, seeming to become more critical and vengeful with each passing day. She hated her mother, who kept silent, who insisted that everything was alright. She hated that rouge that dared call himself her father.

But that wasn't what broke her. It was when she saw her mentor, whom she held so high, meet up with a tom from Thunderclan.

So, she waited-- waited calmly, buying herself time as she slowly whispered things to her mother and Mistystream to make them doubt themselves. Kirk had even started to grow bolder, joining Windclan. 

Moons and moons passed, with the three cats growing more and more paranoid. Whiteweed became increasingly withdrawn, lashing out at the ‘former’ rogue, who only ever seemed to stare into the distance. Mistystream seemed quick to anger.

The symptoms always came after Palemist had spoken to them, or after they had eaten. Each time they grew weaker, symptoms growing more and more frequent and noticeable. 

Then, she finally struck.

She lured Kirk out of camp first, feigning acceptance as she brought him to the border of Shadowclan, where she confronted him. She didn't need an excuse, she had broken the tom down enough that when she finally attacked him, he took it-- after all, Palemist was chosen by Starclan as Windclan's true Medicine cat.

Next was Whiteweed, who she waited for her grief to be at its peak after the death of her mate. She lured her to Fourtrees, ending her mother's life as she laid her onto Windclan's rock. When her body was discovered, vultures were picking at it.

Finally, Mistystream was next. She had followed her mentor to the Moonstone, where she committed her most violent murder, for her mentor had broken several codes-- so, she would execute her. Unfortunately, Mistystream was pregnant, so while the traitor died, so too did two innocent kits.

Palemist considered the kits’ deaths as a mercy kill. It would be hard to find a queen willing to feed two premature kittens, especially not half-Clan kits of a medicine cat.

The murder of her mentor left a scar on Windclan, and while Palemist took up Smallpaw as an apprentice, Mistystream's former mate would be the one to tear her down. 

He had seen the whole thing, and while she was out collecting herbs, she was killed. For a medicine cat, she put up a fight, but she was no match for the more experienced Thunderclan warrior. She lead him through Shadowclan territory before making a desperate sprint across the Thunderpath. 

Palemist met her end by a monster, and while she was expecting to be embraced by Starclan.. She was instead sent to the Dark Forest. After all, the warrior code does say that an honourable warrior does not need to kill other cats to win their battles

First REF sheet! Was gonna post them all at once but decided against it. Heres Palenose!

I'll be going over the info stated above and some stuff I couldnt fit! This does not cover any info that comes after the current comic point!

Okay!! Palenose is a young tom who JUST got his warrior name in the comic, as he's sitting vigil with Dawnstorm. He was named after his great sense of smell and being able to track well!

He's Thunderclan, but even his clanmates exclude him, or rather he excludes himself. His only friends are Dawnstorm, who hes known since kithood, and Quickswipe (not pictured yet) who was his goofy mentor. He was close with Sparowstar (not pictured yet) once he became an apprentice but she quickly became tired of him because he seemed so moody all the time.

His mom is Frosttail (not pictured yet) and dad is Emberfoot (not pictured yet), however he only has Frosttail in his life. He had two sisters, Morningkit (not pictured yet) and Gorsekit (not pictured yet) but they were either stillborn or died quickly after birth (don't know which one yet). Emberfoot still held out hope for his last kit but as he and Frosttail waited for his first words, he realized with horror that Palekit couldn't speak. Emberfoot declared the litter "cursed" and broke things off with Frosttail, instead going after the younger Robintoe (not pictured yet).

The other clans regard Palepaw as the "Thunderclan Weirdo", either not realizing he couldn't speak and thought it was strange he never talked or knew he was mute and found his pawspeak unnerving.

Him and Stoneclaw actually meet before! Stonepaw was dared to talk to Palepaw but Palepaw simply stared back at him before storming off. Stoneclaw had a little grudge against him since.

Palenose is really sad and doesn't feel like he fits in with Thunderclan, often confiding in his friends, mom, and clan medicine cat, Haywhisker (not yet pictured). He considered running away numerous times and once tried at his apprentice ceremony (he was quickly caught by Frosttail however). He also considered becoming a medicine cat instead but he decided against it as it brought more attention to himself.

His relationship with Emberfoot is strained. They never talk, even on patrol together, you could cut the tension with a knife. Palenose resents his father and Emberfoot the same, however Robintoe had always been kind to Palenose (too much so that it was uncomfortable). She often invites him to "family events" with Emberfoot and his half-siblings, he doesn't go unless forced, then its reallllllly awkward.

In his dreams (which aren't too common) he always feels a strange presence, as if someone is watching him. Seems to get stronger around bodies of water and moss.

Wow! That's alot and we're barely beginning! Hopefully Stoneclaw's won't be as long!

They and their daughter, Blackpaw, join BoneClan amd claim they will teach BoneClan to be warriors.

Snakeberry is murdered while out searching for herbs. SkyClan suspects BoneClan, but they claim they had nothing to do with it, and that it must be the rogues who still follow a more tyrannical and blood-thirsty path. Swiftsun starves to death as he had given all his prey to his mate and kits. Prey has became scarce on SkyClan, and ThunderClan, land.

Tabbyheart is strolling through SkyClan’s land when a fox attacks and kills her. Her kits become apprentices shortly after, Fishpaw mentored by Treefuzz, Dovepaw by Palestripe, and Squirrelpaw by Pigeonflash. The previous apprentices become warriors named Raggedflight, Birchshade, Quietsmile, and Shimmersun. Moonpaw isn’t able to complete his assessment until later due to being punished for aggressive behavior and disrespect towards clanmates. After he kills the fox that killed Tabbyheart, he earns the warrior name, Moonclaw.

Ashpaw and Dovepaw attack Mallowpaw, accusing her of being a BoneClan spy, and, despite Raggedflight, Pigeonflash, Fishpaw, Squirrelpaw, and other warriors attempt to stop them, the fight gets worse, Mallowpaw running away. Mallowpaw seeks refuge in BoneClan and refuses to leave, hating SkyClan. She changes her name to Mallow. Raggedflight leaves to join her.

He, Lightningdusk, Moonclaw, Cloudpaw, and Smokepaw attack BoneClan without Daisystar’s permission, but when the clan notices they’re gone, Heronpaw tells them they asked her to go too but she refused. The clan goes to rescue them, find Palestripe dead, and the others wounded, and Sweetlight blames Daisystar for letting her warriors attack them. Fishwish leaves the clan to be a loner, upset at the drama. He wonders between the clans, asking about their stories with BoneClan.

My SkyClan and Outsiders Allegiances

As some of you may know, FalconDevelops’s allegiance generator does not currently have SkyClan on it, but you can rename the “cats outside the clans” section, which I did. Any cats outside the clans are included in the SkyClan allegiances, but are not apart of SkyClan.

Honeystar, sister to Thrushleaf and daughter of Bristlelight (deceased; in StarClan), is current SkyClan leader. Her deputy is Silverthistle, daughter of Thistlesong (deceased; in the Dark Forest) and Morningcloud of ShadowClan (deceased; technical StarClan cat, but chooses to reside in the Dark Forest), and the sister to Shadefur, former SkyClanner and now the leader of a group of rogues called “BoneClan”. Thrushleaf is the current medicine cat. Bramblespeck is the son of Acornleaf and Auburnheart (deceased; in StarClan), and brother to Fuzzybird. He is also mates with Littlestep, and they are the parents to Snakepaw, mentored by Thrushleaf, Thornpaw, mentored by Daisybee, Dustypaw, mentored by Fuzzybird, and Falconpaw, mentored by Acornleaf. Lichenstem and Daisybee are the daughters of Coilspring (deceased; in StarClan). Seedfall is the son Fevernose, the clan elder. Plumheart is a permanent queen in the nursery and mother to Splashkit and Aspenkit.
