Name: Hickorystar/leaf

Gender: male

Age: 34 moons

Rank: Leader

Cat breed: Bengal

Sexuality: Aroace

Appearance: A lean, tall light brown bengal with russet spots and bright green eyes. He stands taller than some cats at 16 inches tall. The tip of his snout has a white point and he has an abnormally long tail, making his silhouette distinguishable from afar.

Personality: Kind yet naive, strongly believing that punishment is never the answer. He manages his clan peacefully and tends to try solve things with gifts and words instead of his own claws, though he can be more infuriating then helpful at times due to this very trait. Hickorystar has never been a stubborn cat and can be swayed quite easily. Cats in the past have realised this and abused it but he never seems to learn.
He is panicky under pressure and tends to just assume he is the one in the wrong often times. Isn't good with words, is usually nervous around large groups of felines.
The tom is a decent fighter but the thought of drawing blood makes him feel sick, starclan knows why he was chosen as leader. He is a fairly honest cat and hardly keeps secrets unless it is a dangerous situation.

Backstory: Hickorystar, formerly Hickorypaw, was one of the original cats in the group. He was 14 moons old and trailing behind his mother after a barn cat had chased them out from its territory. He saw the other apprentice drown and chose to stay to help the grieving molly. His mother, Eveningleaf disagreed and left for a more secluded life, leaving Hickorypaw to practically be adopted and raised by the clan. He was mentored by an old now passed cat by the name of Locustclaw, though he died before Hickorypaw's ceremony. Hickory asked to be named Hickoryleaf after his mother, and his request was accepted.
The first "leader" was a scraggly old tom by the name of Pond, which coincidentally Hickoryleaf happened to know quite well. Pond had put together most of the roles, and had been quite the help in his younger days. The leader had no knowledge of starclan and had stubbornly refused others offerings to teach, though was a good leader in his own way. He named Hickoryleaf deputy around 5 moons ago and was killed recently by a fox whilst He and Hickoryleaf were on patrol. Hickoryleaf managed to escape with a torn hind claw and a treatable wound over his flank, and was unable to retrieve the leader's body. He became leader 2 sunrises after his return despite the doubtful visions of the other cats, and he left for a couple weeks in search of a connection to starclan to earn his lives and name. They were much too far from the main clans to have access to the moon pool. Luckily Hickorystar had found something, but refuses to tell any cat just what.

Crush?: N/A (free to ask)

Other: He tries his best to teach his warriors mercy and how to heal with herbs but he has little to no authority here.
Has a reasonable fear of foxes.

Name: Silverthorn

Gender: female

Age: 42 moons

Rank: medicine cat

Cat breed: Maine coon

Sexuality: pansexual

Appearance: Silverthorn is a large she cat with a slightly bulky frame and wide shoulders. Her silvery gray fur is shorter on her head and shoulders, but longer on her stomach and flank. Thick swirl like markings in a darker color cover her body, and she has a thick, feathery tail that always seems to have something clinging to it. She also has ear tufts, and vibrant green eyes. Silverthorn is also pretty scarred, many of which are hidden under her coat.

Personality: Silverthorn is a quiet, observant female who prefers to think before she speaks. Part of the reason is because she's a bit socially awkward, still getting used to living with a group of cats after so much time alone. She's used to having to look after herself; emotionally hardened and resilient against the elements of the wild. However she can be somewhat gentle at times, namely when tending to a wounded clan mate or dealing with the younger cats patiently. Despite her heavily scarred body and towering build, she's kind in a quiet way, looking after her clanmates as any medicine cat would.

Backstory: Many moons before the clan formed, Silverthorn lived on her own in a world that was pretty much survival of the fittest. It was not a kind world to her, which is evident by the many wounds she bears.

However she came across the pond after moons of traveling, and stayed in the area due to a nasty wound on her leg that caused a limp. She was present all those moons ago when the queen lost her kit, and initially hung back. However she only moved forward once she saw herbs being distributed; having a great knowledge of them due to her time traveling and having to be self sufficient.

There were many cats with various things that they needed help with, from infected wounds to coughs or varying degrees. Silverthorn helped all, a concept that had been foreign to her until then. Regardless she aided all with their needs and when the clan was formed, gained the title of medicine cat.

Crush?: None atm

Other: Despite being a medicine cat, Silverthorn is fully capable of fighting and hunting. She prefers to catch her own prey, not used to it being brought to her, even if she does need to stay in camp a large portion of the time.

Name: Mantispaw | Mantiswing

Gender: Tom

Age: 9 moons

Rank: Medicine Cat Apprentice

Cat breed: Bengal (Snow Mink Bengal for reference)

Sexuality: Unsure

Appearance: Mantispaw is a smaller than average cat, with a petite figure. He has sleek, short ivory/cream colored fur with darker seal brown markings and tail tip. Although small, Mantispaw has very large round eyes. His mother used to call them “bug eyes” - hence his name. His eyes are a clear, crystal blue with darker blue flecks in them. He has an abnormally long tail as well as lengthy whiskers.

Personality: Mantispaw is an observant cat who both pays attention and remembers smaller details others might not notice. He is a responsible and trustworthy cat, always known to keep his word. A hopeless romantic, Mantispaw finds himself getting jealous around cats in love. He knows being the future Medicine Cat is his duty from Starclan, but he dreams of having a family.

Backstory: Mantispaw, or at the time Mantis, was born a Loner. The runt of the litter, he was often left out in the games his siblings played and often stayed close to his mother, Mouse. She would tell him all kinds of stories, but his favorites were the ones from her life being part of a clan. To Mantis, a clan just seemed like a large family, and he loved that idea. Mantis’s father was a kittypet, turning Mouse away once he found out she was pregnant. So it had just been them and their mother for many moons. When Mantis was around 4 moons old, disaster struck.
The family was playing out near the tree they called home. Mantis would always stay the closest to the den, scared of the outside world. He watched as his siblings play fought, his mother giving them pointers in the shade. That’s when Mantis saw movement out of the corner of his eye. Within mere seconds, both kits had been clutched in the talons of a hawk. With a blood curdling yowl, Mouse took off after the hawk, leaping into the air but barely touching the tail feathers of the swift creature. However she didn’t give up, the she-cat followed the hawk, leaving a horrified Mantis behind. Mantis hid himself in the den, curled in a tight ball and waited. And waited. And waited. Mantis waited until his stomach couldn’t take it anymore. His mother wasn’t coming back. No one was. Hungry, scared and alone, Mantis left his family den. Not knowing how to hunt, the kit stumbled around helpless looking for food. That’s when the cats of Thistleclan found him and took him in, raising him as their own.

Crush?: None

Other: Understandably, he has an extreme fear of hawks (as well as other birds)

Name: Sageleaf

Gender: She-Cat

Age: 32 moons

Rank: Warrior

Cat breed: Maine Coon

Sexuality: Pansexual

Appearance: Sageleaf is a fluffy, dark tortoiseshell colored Maine Coon with black ear tufts. The right half of her face is black, while the left is orange with tabby markings. Sageleaf has a big, feathery tail and almond shaped yellow green eyes.

Personality: Sageleaf is an honest cat who will always speak her mind, regardless of the outcome. She’s fully aware that this can come with repercussions but doesn’t care; she’d rather be honest. Sageleaf is a bit absent-minded, often getting caught up in her own daydreams.
Extremely loyal, Sageleaf is willing to do anything for her friends and family - no matter the cost. Although generally kind, Sageleaf is not one to back down when challenged, and will also always accept one.

Backstory: Born and raised in a separate clan, Sageleaf is no stranger to clan life. The only kit in her mother’s litter, Sageleaf was doted upon by her parents. However this only ever made Sageleaf anxious, feeling like she always had to live up to unspoken expectations. As an apprentice Sageleaf fought hard to stand out, not making her too popular among her fellow apprentices. Sageleaf lived happily in the clan until her adulthood, when a fire broke out in the forest they lived in.
Sageleaf lost everything she had ever known. Her clan, her family, and her home. The she-cat wandered North, stumbling upon Thistleclan in its starting moons. Alone and wishing to be apart of a community again, Sageleaf joined Thistleclan and has been there ever since. Although happy here, she often wonders if her family is still alive out there.

Crush?: None atm but open

Other: None

Age - 11 moons

Rank - Apprentice

Cat Breed - Abyssinian

Sexuality - Bisexual

Appearance - A beautiful ginger cat with sleek, shiny fur. 

Personality - A clumsy, and insecure young cat. She is quite clumsy, always seeming to trip over her own paws and struggles to catch prey. Minnowpaw can always find herself in the worst situations from almost drowning in the strong currents of the river, or being pawsteps away from being eaten by an angry alligator. Due to this, she is extremely insecure. Minnowpaw dreads having to go on any kind of patrol, in fear she'll mess everything up. She mostly stays to herself, hiding in the apprentices den or sulking in the corners of camp. She longs to play with kits, and even hunt for herself, but she's too scared to even try anymore.

Backstory - Minnowpaw was born into Thistleclan, being an only kit. Her mother loved her dearly, always gently reassuring the shy Minnowkit. All was well until her mother left on a hunting patrol, and never came back. Rumors say she fell into the pond and got swallowed by an alligator. Minnowpaw has grown up alone since that day. She is often seen watching the kits being cared for by their mothers. She wishes every day her mother was still by her side. 

Crush - Slight crush for Mantispaw

Other - Minnowpaw is intersex, meaning she is both male and female. She's kept this to herself, and hasn't told any cat.

Name: Crowgaze

Gender: Tom

Age: 42 moons

Rank: Warrior

Cat breed: Bengal (Black Bengal)

Sexuality: Straight

Appearance: Crowgaze is large for his breed, measuring at 12” high where a typical Bengal is 10”. He is a haunting sight. Very slim, sleek, and all black with jet black Bengal markings. His right ear was ripped from a battle when he was younger. He has almond shaped, deep golden eyes.

Personality: Crowgaze enjoys keeping to himself, finding other cats rather obnoxious to be around. He’s on the arrogant side and can be condescending when talking to his fellow clan mates. He’s swift and agile for his size, making him a threat in battle. He’s a cunning and witty cat, often able to talk himself out of trouble… or into it.

Backstory: Crowgaze, originally Crow, was born and raised a loner. He was in for disappointment from birth. His father was absent and his mother, Finch, mentally was. He didn’t blame her, a single mother of 7 kittens. Being the largest of the litter, once he was old enough Crowgaze had to provide for them all. It was a daunting task, and Crowgaze often found himself starving so his mother and siblings could eat. This is where his resentment began. The colder it got, the further Crowgaze had to go for food. Of course none of his siblings helped, or even offered to, so he was alone. Once he found the two-leg barn, he was set. There were mice everywhere and it was the first time Crowgaze was able to feed his whole family, including himself. However, that led to his family becoming greedy and demanding more. His resentment grew.
Crowgaze began to spend more time at the two-leg farm, watching them from afar. A few moons went by before he started to notice the mice were starting to smell weird. The two-legs had begun to poison them. Head clouded with hatred and tired from the expectations of his family; Crowgaze cautiously caught some. He brought them home to his family, being careful not to eat one, and left. He never looked back. For many moons, guilt ate away at the tom. However the freedom of being alone, of not having to care for anyone, trumped that in the end.
He stumbled upon Thistleclan once he had aged, grown. At first the tom was reluctant to join the clan, but ultimately his curiosity won. He’s still hesitant about his decision, but knows he could just leave anytime he wanted.

Crush?: None

Other: Couldn’t help myself and made oneee more
