oh JEEZ

wow that’s a lot of characters that have been here a While i’m so sad :(

[lemmesmash-clan]

Rowanfang snarled, a mess of red-and-gold-and-blackish fur that stung and clung like a burr. Paws grappled and a dewclaw pricked as she crashed down on her foe like a toppled maple.

The wind knocked out of her, Honeypaw willed it back, not letting her chest get flattened by the tortoiseshell’s weight. As soon as it returned to her she screeched. She writhed, flailing and kicking and reaching nothing but thick fur; pinned. She twisted, desperate, only to see green eyes and bright teeth sear towards her neck-

“Not good enough.” Rough words rumbled against a parched throat; Rowanfang stood back to allow Honeypaw to regain her footing. She skirted away, doing her best to project indifference; she knew the sting shone in her eyes all the same.

Sitting down, the young Warrior watched a boar-beat roll by to let Honeypaw smooth her ruffled coat and the onlookers consider their verdict. Honeypaw glowered; they weren’t doing a very good job of it, for all that her scuffle in the sand was worth.

Applepaw’s blue eyes searched for her own, lighting up with Honeypaw met her gaze with as much enthusiasm as she could muster; Creekpaw was completing her third lap around the training hollow and seemed to pay more attention to her pawsteps than the lesson.

Rowanfang veered towards her. “Creekpaw; what did Honeypaw do right?”

The patched kitten was jarred out of her path, looking up. Already the pupils within her yellow eyes were too dilated for such a clear morning; she looked at Rowanfang’s brows, not her eyes.

“She didn’t protect her neck; she grappled your shoulders and arms instead of trying to control your head, which left her vulnerable to that ending... sorry, Honeypaw.”

“Don’t say that; it’s well-deserved, and if I know my weaknesses I can work on them,” the flame point replied; she could see Applepaw’s tail waving from the corner of her eye.

A whistle of breath slid between Rowanfang’s teeth. “Oh, she definitely has a bit to work on; not too bad being Lichencloud’s apprentice and all... “

The fur along her spine rippled; she worked to keep it down under the Warrior’s eyes.

“I’m not asking that; I’m asking what she did right.”

Creekpaw blinked. “Oh, yeah.”

“Sheath your tongue, Rowanfang,” a new voice crested the riverbed; all four cats swiveled towards it. “Honeypaw didn’t let you get a grip on her all the same. Though trying to control the pointy bits in such tight quarters is essential, she was just about ready to knock you off balance and scramble off anyways. Could use some work, but not as much as you’re implying.”

A pretty pale molly stood where a pool would once have rested; she trotted down the shallow banks, shadowed by a chocolate ticked tabby. Her movements were stiff as the older cat’s thanks to a tailless rump; her smile was flexible and reached every gaze gathered.

“Pansypelt!” Applepaw bounded forward, leaving Honeypaw feeling flustered as her sister shared an affectionate greeting with her mentor. Her enthusiasm carried her to the next visitor easily. “Oh, Sandfang! What are you doing here?”

Honeypaw had to note the strangeness of the situation; Sandfang, all scrapes and nicked ears with shoulders too broad for his body, was an Elder, retired long before Applepaw and Honeypaw had ever dreamed of Ashclan, let alone forest. She'd never spotted him out and about, not even sunbathing with Bramblecloud and Frogthroat. Seeing the retired Warrior in the sunlight was almost intimidating; even at his age he was a handsome face.

He did not quite look at Applepaw as he answered her.”I’m the last survivor of the Blight to bear -fang; we thought it wise to pass on even a bit of that before I get confined to my den.” Honeypaw tried to follow his gaze; it shifted before she could pinpoint who -or what- had him looking so severe.

“Aren’t you always in there?” Rowanfang quipped; jib or not, there was a sharp tone to it. Was the tortoiseshell intimidated?

Bristling fur foretold another comment; Sandfang’s ears slicked back as he streaked forward. Honeypaw’s heart dove down.

“Wait- stop-” Creekpaw yowled. Rowanfang snarled, bunching up and bracing for the impact. Sandfang collided with her side, sending both cats rolling. Applepaw looked to Pansypelt for help; the Warrior had already skittered as fast as her bad back could take her, tugging Creekpaw away from the hissing, spitting ball that swung in all directions.

The other Apprentices were panicking, crowding around the only form of authority that wasn’t thrashing like mad; Honeypaw, however, couldn’t help but watch. She knew little of the techniques; leaves and roots and flowers were more to her liking, the reflexes and quick thinking required in such brawls were beyond her, but it was thrilling to watch. Rowanfang was a bulky, massive cat built of mismatched, thick fur. With indignant rage she would come out on top, pinning her senior in a cloud of grit and pebbles. Sandfang, sleek and a little lean in his age, nonetheless consistently toppled her, forcing the rolling grapple to continue on as soon as she would take a moment to breath.

After a breathless time, one final tumble sent them spiraling appart. Rowanfang grumbled low in her throat, nub of a tail swishing in defiance; Sandfang acknowledged her with a chuff. Despite his demeanor, the old tom was just as winded as the prickly Warrior.

“Who mentored you again?”

Amber-and-ginger fur parted every whichway, Rowanfang watched him under low brows. “Cootheart. He taught me everything I know about the Code, our Clan and how to serve it and survive.”

Sandfang considered her answer, giving her fur time to lie flat. “He’s a determined one… on the nimble side of things, born to weave and dance.” He seemed like he wanted to say something else, but a shared look with Pansypelt made the ticked tabby swallow the thought.

“You are a skilled Warrior; I can see why Scalestar took you in,” Sandfang said at length. Honeypaw looked over the scene to meet Applepaw’s eyes; wasn’t Sandfang the only Clanborn cat in the clearing anyways?

“However,” he continued, “you would have suited better under their own tutelage. Maybe Cootheart should have asked for Bramblecloud to oversee a session, or even Pansypelt.”

The stars came out behind Honeypaw’s eyes. “They’ve all got less tail than most,” she said.

Pansypelt seemed to understand as well, taking a few steps forwards; her flank still touched Creekpaw, Applepaw followed the movement. The trio didn’t move much, and for good reason: Rowanfang’s eyes raked over the elder like claws, limbs stiff trunks.

The wind was stagnant; from what little Honeypaw had gathered from Crowstorm’s rambles, mentors were a big thing in Ashclan. She’d doubted it, feeling no bond clinging between her pelt and Lichencloud’s… seeing her sister leeched to Pansypelt’s side, seeing Rowanfang’s eyes blaze at an apparent slight against her mentor’s credentials, it gave weight to it.

Creekpaw lurched forward, scampering into the space between both cats before Pansypelt could drag her back. She scented the air with wide eyes and paused whiskers from Rowanfang.

Honeypaw hissed. “Creekpaw! Get back-”

“No!” she bit out, twisting to face the tortoiseshell instead. “You! You stop that; just ‘cause you’re a ‘fang doesn’t mean you know everything. Don’t you want to get even better?” Seeming to sense the tension in the air, or maybe realizing how blunt she sounded, the patched cat’s tail fled. “Sorry.”

Rowanfang glowered; Honeypaw couldn’t quite see what exactly those green eyes searched for. A beat later they drifted down, past the disturbed sand and stones. “I’ve earned my name, one of the best despite not being born here. Cootheart dragged me back by the ear when he found me sneaking away to find my brother; he dragged himself through mud to teach me how to swim though he barely could; he stayed up days and days asking you, and Loonfur,  Bramblecloud, about the heritage of this Clan, of everything I’d need to know.”

“And you’re telling me his effort wasn’t enough?”

Pansypelt spoke up. “No, it was not. It takes a Clan to raise a Warrior; do you expect a single mentor to be able to understand and be able to work on every weakness their apprentice has?”

Sandfang nodded. “Cootheart has a tail; you do not. I’m certain he offered you as complete an education as he could, but he can’t dock his rear to better teach you how to stabilize yourself against more agile enemies. He did well; you are still Rowanfang, not Rowanstripe or Rowanstorm. You both earned that name.”

Rowanfang’s fur had begun to lie smooth; she still had not relaxed, though. Unable to glare at Sandfang, she seemed to have taken to glowering at Creekpaw instead; the kitten seemed only barely aware of this. “Why didn’t Scalestar train me themselves, then? Or make Pansypelt take me on, or drag your mate out of retirement-”

“Best friend; Bramblecloud helped me have the kittens I’d always wanted and our bond never extended beyond that.” Sandfang’s tone grew thorns; it took visible effort to calm down. “Regardless, it is the Mentor’s responsibility to seek out any extra lessons or knowledge their pupil may need. Our clan was dying, Rowanfang; Scalestar had to worry about the training of many young cats, on recruiting new blood and ensuring that Ashclan saw its next year. Had it been before-”

Applepaw was at the old tom’s side, cheeks streaking over his flank. Honeypaw wondered if she should comfort him too; apparently he’d taken the Blight hard. Her sister’s support appeared to be enough, though; his snout rose to point at Rowanfang.

“Roseclaw,” he grit out. “Skunkfoot. Cindercloud. Squirrelheart. Ember-eye... Grousecloud. Any of them could have taught you, but not; they’re all dead. We were few and tired and defeated; Cootheart was the only one with enough enthusiasm to handle the fire within you. To give you to their care would have been a fatal blow. Frogthroat had just earned his own name through surviving impossible trauma; you would have walked all over his other father. As for Pansypelt…”

His eyes slid open to eye Honeypaw; he’d felt her curiosity and she couldn’t quite hold the blue-green gaze.“The clan, what was left of us, was still in an uproar over this cat being accepted at her age and without going through a formal apprenticeship. Scalestar is not foolish enough to give a controversial cat an apprentice that early.”

What little of the Manx’s short fur fluffed out; her eyes were merry as she ambled over. “Give me some credit, I fought off that terrible pair of rogues with nothing but my shadows and teeth.”

Sandfang chuffed. “I’ve still got to get that story out of you.” He nudged Applepaw with his white chin, silently thanking her for the support, or so Honeypaw thought. Meeting her sister’s eyes, she could have sworn that the red-and-white point looked like she knew this curious tale...

Pansypelt spat at him playfully. Satisfied with her childish behaviour, she hobbled over to Rowanfang; the Warrior had courched, searching for answers in scuffs in the sand. Creamy fur brushed Creekpaw’s side as she passed; the apprentice stuck close after they made contact. The pale tortoiseshell nosed the darker fur of Rowanfang’s shoulder.

“Just because you have earned your name doesn’t mean there isn’t more to learn. You are a keen hunter and fighter, a testament to Cootheart’s training and your own skill. There’s no shame in honing those teeth to keep them sharp”

Sandfang loped over; Applepaw and Honeypaw, after a beat, joined him. “That’s why I’m here, actually. I wanted to see what skills this new blood brings with it, see if it could get mine flowing again.”

Rowanfang, finally, met his eyes; Honeypaw circled around to see the reluctance in her eyes. “Well, what did this new blood teach you so far?”

Honeypaw could hear the intake of breath they all took; Sandfang chuckled. “You’re better at swallowing your pride than I was at your age; I think we’ll need a few more rounds before I know for sure.”

He turned and- oh no.

“Honeypaw! Let’s see if you can work on that defensive; try using your hind legs to push at one side of my undersides to knock me off-balance.”

The flame point felt her enthusiasm dropping like a stone. Making herself small, she tried to brush back against the training hollow’s banks.

Applepaw’s eager eyes found her, though; clear blue like the sky above. “You can do it sis,” she cried; Pansypelt and Rowanfang offered their encouragements too as they settled under an overhang in the shade. Creekpaw thrummed with excitement; she didn’t quite know where to look.

Honeypaw heaved a sigh; peer pressure sure was nice. She mimicked Sandfang as he squared his shoulders, ruffled a ridge of fur and paced to the side.

They crouched, facing off; she could see herself in Sandfang’s eye, a ferocious feral with pointed fangs and a snake for a tail. Intimidating; dangerous, despite her size and inexperience.

If Warriors could learn a new thing or two, maybe she could learn to be less of an easy target.

With a deep breath, she lunged.

Pansypelt ☀ RiverClan Elder

Littermate(s): Morningflower Kit(s): Cherrybloom, Sorrelpelt Mate: Deceased Cisgender Molly • Heterosexual      Pansypelt was the medicine cat of RiverClan for a long time, and alongside her sister, Morningflower, who was the deputy, the two of them were unstoppable. Over the course of her life, Pansypelt took a mate and had two kits, Cherrykit and Sorrelkit. She separated her family life and her medicine cat duties fairly well up until her mate was injured during a battle and his wounds got infected. She tried her best to save him, working all day and all night. She paced in front of his nest and neglected to eat, drink, or sleep until he was feeling better. He succumbed to his illness despite her best efforts.        Pansypelt couldn’t handle the fact that she had failed to save the love of her life. Every patient that came to her just reminded her of how she’d failed. Her den was too silent and too cold, and his scent, once warm and comforting, had become another painful reminder of the fact that he was never coming back to her. She felt so utterly hopeless, and the depression inhibited her ability to be an effective medicine cat. Her apprentice, Hailstorm, urged her to retire, and her sister encouraged her to join her in the elder’s den.        She has recovered steadily since then, and her daughters, now Cherrybloom and Sorrelpelt, have welcomed a total of three litters of kits into the Clan, blessing Pansypelt with plenty of wonderful grandchildren. In her retirement, things are like they were once before - Pansypelt is practically inseparable from Morningflower, and although she misses her beloved with  every breath that she takes, and she still wakes up in the morning expecting to be able to hold him and tell him excitedly about the dreams that she had, she is grateful for the things that she does have: a wonderful, loving sister who won’t stop trying to get her involved in all of the Clan gossip, compassionate daughters who care deeply for their family, and a strong, capable apprentice who still checks up on her at every opportunity.

Lindenfoot  Warrior, ex-Kittypet | She the Babe | Designed by nargled on DA

Having joined Ashclan as a full-grown adult, this ex-kittypet has the embarrassing distinction of having been an Apprentice for three and three-quarter seasons. He acceptance into Ashclan was... shall we say, a very memorable event, so regardless, she stuck around. Though not a talented hunter, fighter and horrible with youngsters, she is a very fast cat indeed. She’s honestly adapted fairly badly to Clan life, but if Lindenfoot is one thing, she’s determined: she’s adapted to new homes before and this one is far more appealing to those human nests!

Lindenfoot has, perhaps, the most experience with humans of anyone in Ashclan; born a barn cat, TNR’d, put in a shelter and passed around more households than she can count, she’s experienced a wide range of human behaviors and fancies herself an expert on them. Until they do something really weird.

She is prone to doing very, very cute behaviors almost out of habit (she’s so used to making humans go ‘awww’ to get treats) and has two extremes to her personality: completely selfless and generous, or selfish to the point of hoarding air. Despite her ups and downs, Pansypelt loves this fellow calico and holy crap they’re so cute together look at my little lesbeans. She’s also good friends with Mudtracks.

Pansypelt Senior Warrior | gORL | Designed by @squirrelfights

Scalestar’s BFF, Pansypelt used to be a loner living under a flower shop and has been friends with the Leader since both were Apprentice-aged. When she learned of the Blight, the Manx chose to help care for the cats her friend loved so much. From stealing flowers and herbs to simply carrying out hunting duties when they were short-pawed, Pansypelt was eventually given a full Warrior ceremony for her help... after she’d agreed to join, of course. Some muttering was had about this, but no one really had the strength to fight at the time sO YEAH!

Pansypelt is the resident confidant of nearly any cat who needs someone to talk to; she’s excellent at comforting others and offering support and soft-spoken advice. She pretties up the Camp with flowers in blooming season.

Being a Manx, Pansypelt suffers from spinal problems and limited mobility. Despite this, she is a workaholic and is rarely known to take catnaps, using every free moment to either help someone out or help the Clan as a whole. She can spread herself thin at times and can become too exhausted to care for herself.

She licks ears to show affection, drools in her sleep and loves to raise her head and purr when extremely happy. Such as now. With her girlfriend. yea

MORNINGFLOWER; SHE/HER RIVERCLAN ELDER.

     Once the deputy of RiverClan, Morningflower has since retired with her long-time mate, Beetlethorn, to the elder’s den. Morningflower is scholarly and thoughtful. Cats from all backgrounds and attitudes seek her advice, and Morningflower has quite a lot to say. She is highly caring and anxious, often involving herself too much and worrying too much over petty affairs.

Cherrybloom ☀ RiverClan Warrior

Mother: Pansypelt Father: Deceased Kit(s): Fallowfern, Yarrowfang, Hazelpaw Mate: Goosebelly Littermate(s): Sorrelpelt Cisgender Molly • Bisexual       Cherrybloom is perhaps one of the most lighthearted, cheerful cats in RiverClan. She is very dedicated to her family, and she spends a lot of time caring for her mate, kits, and especially her elderly mother, Pansypelt. She is a pacifist at heart, and will avoid arguments or confrontations at all costs. Many cats like to come to her for advice, and she’s great at giving it.

Sorrelpelt ☀ RiverClan Queen

Mother: Pansypelt Father: Deceased Littermate(s): Cherrybloom Kit(s): Applekit, Kestrelkit Mate (Formerly): Cedarstorm

Cisgender Molly • Heterosexual

Sorrelpelt is an antsy queen with a lot of nervous energy. She always seems… quietly stressed, as if she’s dealing with immense pressure. She was once in love with Cedarstorm, but after having kits with him, his flaws became more apparent to her: he was impulsive, temperamental, ignorant, and unsafe for her kits to be around. She realized she feared his temper and couldn’t bear to see her kittens growing up into the same mindset. She broke things off with him, but has since grown increasingly uneasy with the role of motherhood. She longs to get back to her warrior duties and often pushes her kits onto the other queens or her mother, Pansypelt.

[eventhorizonwc]

Kestrelkit ☀ RiverClan Kit

Mother: Sorrelpelt Father: Cedarstorm Littermate(s): Applekit

Cisgender Tom 

     Kestrelkit is a quiet, but bright kit who keeps mostly to himself. He isn’t paid much attention from either parent - Sorrelpelt is always too busy, and Cedarstorm is always training Applekit and praising her on techniques that he is no good at. As a result, he spends a lot of time with Pansypelt, his grandmother, or with the other queens in the nursery, but this lack of familial attention has made him a bit clingy.

Morningflower ☀ RiverClan Elder

Sibling(s): Pansypelt Mate: Beetlethorn Kit(s): Robinheart, Mousefoot Cisgender Molly • Heterosexual       Once the deputy of RiverClan, Morningflower has since retired with her long-time mate, Beetlethorn, to the elder’s den. She is still highly respected in her old age and cats of all kinds of backgrounds and attitudes seek her advice and input, and Morningflower has quite a lot to say. She is very scholarly and thoughtful, and although her hearing is going a bit, she is still just as sharp as she was when she was deputy. She is, however, highly caring and anxious, often involving herself too much and worrying too much over petty affairs.

Applepaw  Tiny Apprentice | Crying Girl | Designed by me

Sister of Honeypaw, she’s thrilled to the bone that her sister is training to be a Cleric!! Not so thrilled that their mom left them both high and dry in Ashclan, though. =C Being born white and not developing visible points until far later thanks to ample white spotting, her mother initially named her after apple blossoms, not the fruit; turns out she became bright red underneath all that white though, so it works out!

Little girlie decided to eat an apple one day out of curiosity; as a result, Lichencloud had to give her a crash course on edible berries and fruits, ‘cause she likes crunching on them. crounch.

She tends to get injured a lot to give her sister something to practice with; this can drive even laid-back Pansypelt, her Mentor, into the trees with worry and frustration. Applepaw is honestly very frustrated and upset with the fact that her sister isn’t super close to her emotionally, and so she’ll do anything she can to spend time with her. Even playing with bugs, which she honestly doesn’t like much.

In the absence of her sister, Webpaw has taken a key place in her life as her best friend. He tells lame jokes, she laughs and makes them worse; he breaks a rule, she makes sure they don’t get in trouble (learned how to play with the rules from her sister; honestly only follow them ‘cause it’s convenient, and mostly makes sense.)

Webpaw Apprentice | Demi-tom | Designed by rainwolfeh on DA

The only Apprentice of Clanborn origin; being surrounded by cats that are learning everything from scratch has honestly done wonders to the poor dork’s ego. Son of Pigeonstripe and Sleetclaw, two of his siblings died while they were still kittens and a third just a little after their training began, all to the Blight. He’s practically a germophobe, or as close as one can be when you live in the wild; more like ‘keep your bad sickness-spirits away from me’.

Webpaw overthinks everything, including thinking, and stumbles over his words as a result. Thus, his jokes usually end up derailing and being pretty bland, unlike his dad’s. He looks up to his pop tremendously; his goal in life is not to be a great hunter or tracker or whatever, but to be a great dad; he’s very fatherly already.

He has very short whiskers like his mom, licks his lips when nervous, and loves tiny bugs. Except spiders. Spiders are No.
