~Birchrime- what a piece of work. This spicy girl has been a pain in the you-know-where since the moment she opened her eyes. Birchrime was born the only daughter of two senior pureblood Cloudclan Warriors- Riverfrost and Eagleclaw. And they... kind of dropped the ball with her. Every word whispered into her ear were affirmations, sure- but unfortunately at the expense of literally everyone else. If you're not pureblood, straight, or a 'traditional' warrior- Birchrime probably won't like you. So she hates just about everyone. And anything. So. There's that. She was constantly in trouble as a kit because she couldn't stop fighting the 'lesser than' members of the nursery. As an apprentice, Birchrime went through eleven mentors until she found one that could handle her haughty attitude- and that she couldn't bully almost to tears. Who was it? You should have guessed it was Cottonfeather. And she pumped Birch full of confidence and self-righteousness. So now she's even worse. But that was almost inevitable anyway. Anywhoo. So let's talk about her appearance shall we? Birchrime earned her prefix from her unique coloration- which bears a striking resemblance to the bark on a birch tree. Her primary coat color is white but there is a softer ashy gray-brown color that cloaks her tail and underbelly. The fur along her neck, throat, the small of her chest is also the same color and is thick and full like a mane. This 'ruffle' as she calls it, is Birch's favorite part of her appearance and she will gloat about it anytime possible. She obsessively grooms her 'ruffle' and often walks around with her head held high so that everyone can get a good look at it. For... whatever reason. (weirdo) Birchrime has a richer brown color that is marbled in tabby-stripe fashion across her back, flanks, head, and hind legs. That same color carries into her forelegs and ears. Birchrime has intense, molten yellow eyes. Unlike most cats with a white base coat, her paw-pads and nose are black instead of pink. Birchrime is known for her impressive warrior skills but she does have a nasty temper, sharp tongue, and a very, very conservative mind. Approach her at your own risk. || Only child of Riverfrost(mother) and Eagleclaw(father). || Former apprentice of Cottonfeather. || Former mate of Owlcurl (separated). Late mate of Redbadger(deceased). || No current mate, no kits. || Super straight- homophobic. ||

Squirreltail- what a girl. Squirreltail was born the only child of her parents Whitepelt and Foxfur. The thing about her parents, well... they are historically quite boring. It isn't even a bad thing, per se... just something everyone knows. They're both very no nonsense, by the book, Warrior-Code-loving cats. And that's just fine. It's just... dull. And Squirreltail inherited a bit of that dry attitude. Just... not in the same way her parents have it. Squirreltail is known for a lot of things- her intense battle skills, her bushy tail, her sharp wit. As a young warrior, she saved a kit from a hawk attack and it earned her a deep scar that runs from the bottom of her chin nearly to the ear on the left side of her face. Her eye barely avoided being grazed during the attack, but she still favors it a bit due to the amount of poultices that got into it during her stay in the Medicine Cat's Den. Squirreltail is known as a bit snappy, and it's true she can be, but she also intensely does love the things that she cares about. She's not one for lovey-dovey nonsense and has only offered a few hugs in her lifetime. She makes her affection known in other ways- remembering someone's favorite prey or bringing them a flower they like. She isn't a huge chatter but enjoys conversation and companionship from the cats she surrounds herself with. She is particularly close with her cousin- Cherryseed- and really adores her kin and the family she's created. Squirreltail is ferociously protective of her nieces and nephews and will shred the ears of anyone who has anything to say about them. It is very clear where her loyalty lies- and it isn't with any clan or even a code... it's with her kin. Squirreltail is a pleasant creature to look at. Like Cherryseed, as well as her mother- Foxfur- Squirreltail is a mostly red she-cat. Like her cousin, Squirreltail has a darker ruddy stripe of fur that runs from her nose all the way to the end of her tail. Her mouth, paws, underbelly, undertail, chest, throat, and eyeliner are all a cream color. She has her father's leaf green eyes. || Daughter of Whitepelt(father) and Foxfur(mother). Their only kit. Cousin to Cherryseed and Oakspear- in the Watch. || Bisexual. No mate, no kits. || Goldenstar. ||

Stone That Shadows the River (Stoneshadow)- very dark gray she-cat with white forepaws and brilliant green eyes. Middle sister of Dagger and Fern’s litter, she and her older sister Moss in Sparrow’s Nest, grew disillusioned with the day to day life of the Oasis, feeling as if they needed to venture out and find a better place to live, new grounds to hunt, new bonds to create- adventures to have!. Stone and her sister would journey far and wide, crossing valleys, rivers, Twoleg settlements. They lived as loners, in shelters and even for a short while lived as kittypets. The idyllic days were soon over when her sister fell pregnant and Stone decided it was best that the two settled down to ensure the best survival of the kits. It was a hard time- foxes preyed on them as they ventured back to the woods they had left, badgers chased them out of dens and even prey was hostile- a struggle with a hare left Stone with a permanent limp. Fate would do the worst blow of all- her sister gave birth to three sickly kits- two who died shortly after their first breaths. The final kit nearly died too- Moss had been weak and unable to nurse for days until she too perished. Devastated and left alone with a little tom she didnt help create, Stone did what she thought was her only option- head back home. Yet it had been too many seasons to count since the sisters had left their home in the Oasis- finding your way back after so long proved to be impossible, especially when you were now the mother of a forcibly weaned kitten. The two eventually made camp near a powerful river, on the verge edge of an occupied territory that Stone didnt dare cross. When her nephew grew old enough, she once again set for home. She didnt know where she should even go- her dreams were empty, her paws were numb and her eyes seemed to think everywhere was the same. Yet her soul was indestructible and if she could survive this long away from her home, there was nothing stopping her from finding it again. Stone is a level-headed but stubborn cat, one who has learned to rely on herself and the skills she learned many many seasons ago as a to-be to and finds it hard to open up to cats, despite not being the social hermit she is perceived to be. || Loner/Warrior. || Daughter of Dagger and Fern of Xhii’s Tribe, sister to Moss in Sparrow’s Nest and Dove’s Dying Heart. Aunt/adoptive mother of Skywatcher. || Heterosexual and wants a family of her own, but is focused on keeping her sister’s son alive. He is always her priority.||
Skywatcher- large, broad-shoulder brown tabby tom with dreamy sky-blue eyes and an oddly long tail. Orphaned before he could open his eyes, Skywatcher was raised by his cautious and studious aunt and in turn became a wary figure, never letting himself approach anyone his aunt didnt approve of, or even think about going out on his own- he could never leave the older she-cat after all she did for him. Nevertheless, the young tom longs for a time when he can make friends and live the parts of life that arent just eat, hunt and sleep. Skywatcher is a handsome, muscular cat who loves adventure and while he is reserved and touchy, it wont take long to make the protective shell his aunt has grown over him to crack open and let someone else’s light in. || Loner/Warrior. || Hates water like his aunt, but is a proficient tree-climber- the best there is. || Gay. ||

Sunnystem(Sunny)
|| She-cat(she/her) ||
|| Warrior/rogue/loner ||
Oh, what a literal ray of sunshine. Sunnystem, or 'Sunny' or 'Dawn' as she is called by her loved ones, has had an interesting life. She was found abandoned in a sunflower patch as a kitten, knowing literally nothing but the name she remembers her mother calling her (which is why she sometimes goes by Dawn). Ever since she was knee-high to a grasshopper, she has absolutely loved being around flowers and is always known to chew on sunflower seeds when she's stressed (or anytime really, but especially when she's stressed). She usually has kernels, leaves, or pollen in her fur. Sunny was kicked out of her 'birth' clan for her ideology of not being monogamous and floated around for a long time until she found love, and safety, in her new home. Despite all of the loss, heartache, and confusion she has been through in her life- Sunny is known for her gentle, kind, and bubbly personality and will stop at absolutely nothing to shed light on those around her... especially those that she loves. She enjoys nothing more than a good adventure and you'll usually catch this pretty kitty up to something fun! || Family information: orphaned. || Pansexual. Polyamorous. Taken: mates with Bearpurr and Brightdusk. || Theme song: I'm On My Way by Phil Collins. ||
{Sunny represents the childlike, fun part of me that just wants to be genuinely happy and won't let anything get in the way of that.}

Loresayer- calculative and gentle, Loresayer- or just Lore- is a very unorthodox creature. He and his twin came to the clan a few seasons back, with only the names of 'Fable' and 'Lore' attached to them. Well... them and their father, a black and white tom named Labyrinth. They said they had traveled for a long time but couldn't remember really where they had come from. Labyrinth alone seems to hold memory of their origins but he clearly doesn't want his kits knowing where that is and they don't pry. The only thing Fable and Lore do know... is that they had come from MysticClan but where that is and why they left is a mystery- something their father alone knows. Loresayer is much an opposite to his sister, as is a pattern with most twins. He isn't a hothead like Fable, nor is he untrusting. He generally gives everyone a note of respect and good faith until there is a reason not to be any- but once you've crossed that line... you've crossed it. And I doubt you'll make it back anytime soon. (Even still, Loresayer is far more understanding than his sister and will likely forgive you before she does but I wouldn't bank on that if I were you.) Now, as for his looks- he and Fable are clearly twins... somehow. Loresayer is much bigger than his sister and is built more like his father, with long legs, a lean body, and lithe muscle. He has a long, thick tail and big, steady paws. Where as Fable was built for speed and agility, he is clearly meant to take force and give it back. But he won't... unless he has to. And he will. If you force him. He is a very kind and friendly cat but always seems to keep others at arms-length. He is deeply troubled by his lack of knowledge of his past and isn't as at ease with it as Fable is- and he often spats with his father over whatever it is he is withholding from his children. Lore, like his father and sister, is ferociously loyal and dedicated to Cloudclan and will give his all for his clan. No matter what that takes or what it means. As for his looks, he is much the same as his sister but they're also quite different. Loresayer has that familiar tan coat with slightly darker dusty brown markings- but his are much more faded where as his sister's are more like actual stripes. He has a full tail, where the bottom is white, so is his belly, throat, and front paws. He has the same pale masking on his face as his sister but it travels to his ears and he has no unruly fur or dark markings as she does. He also has black cusps around the white socks of his front feet, black hind paws, a black tail-top, black stripes along his flanks, and that dusty color leaving tear-streaks down his face. His eyes are a shocking, icy blue. Lore has a lot of bad dreams about things he can't often recall- mostly about drowning- and he tries not to tell anyone about it in fear of being foolish. He is very close to his sister and father but desperately longs to branch out and establish himself in Cloudclan... and build a family. || Heterosexual. He longs to be a father. || Fraternal twin brother to Darkfable. Labyrinth's daughter by the deceased Fate. Formally of MysticClan. || Really doesn't like water. Fear of drowning. || Theme song: It's Time- Imagine Dragons. ||

Labyrinthrunner(Labyrinth)- a very honest, intelligent, and gracious tom, Labyrinthrunner- or just Labyrinth since his name is honestly a mouthful- is one of those cats you just... like being around. He is well-kept and holds himself well with pride and a gentle disposition. He is a devoted father and he would die to protect his kits- no matter what that takes or what it costs. He has carried the burden of the past of his family alone for years now. He was honest with the leaders of Cloudclan when they took him and his children in... and his story shocked them. He had been Labyrinth- leader of MysticClan- which had different customs than any clan we are familiar with. He had taken a mate, Fate, who became Deputy- as was custom for MysticClan. Labyrinth had adored Fate for as long as he could remember- since they were nursery mates- and they had loved deeper than any river or any gorge. Their love and their kits would be the future of the clan and everyone knew it and praised them for their connection and their strength as a team. But then... something terrible happened. The unthinkable. Halfway through her pregnancy, Fate became suddenly mentally ill and paranoid. She claimed to hear screams from the shadows and had to be medicated- as she was a danger to herself and others and had attacked Labyrinth on many occasions and had even wounded an apprentice who she swore had "the darkness in them". As clan leader, Labyrinth was both healer and leader and he saw to everything Fate needed. When the kits were born, she seemed to get better mentally so he slowed down and nearly stopped her medication altogether. And that proved to be a terrible mistake. One night, Fate snuck out of the nursery with her young kits and, convinced that they had "the darkness in them", tried to drowned them. Fable fought back with all her little might but Fate injured her badly by scratching her to try and get the "darkness out". Labyrinth found them as Fate was dragging the exhausted kittens back under the water and he intervened. Fate was so maddened by her hysteria that she attacked him, accusing him of being what had brought the darkness on her mind, the clan, and their kits. Every-time he tried to get the kits away, Fate attacked him again. They ended up battling, and in the end... Labyrinth had to kill her to save himself, his kits, and his clan. Being a healer, doing harm to another cat voided his vow to Starclan and with Fate dead, MysticClan would have no leader. Nor healer. Nor guidance. But it didn't matter to him... heartbroken and shattered with grief and shock, Labyrinth mixed up herbs to make his kittens sleep and forget. He bundled them up in a nest made from reeds and fled the camp, unable to bear the thought of facing MysticClan... to tell them what he had done... or that he had to go. He kept recreating the mixture of herbs for moons, forcing his children to eat it, so that they had to forget... and they walked. And walked. And walked. And eventually... they found the Valley. Labyrinth confided in the leaders that he never told his now fully grown kits about their history and he begged for their silence and they agreed. And the rest... is well, history. Now, the once noble leader of MysticClan will do everything and anything he can to devote himself to his clan and pull his weight- as he has to work hard to combat his guilty conscious. He seems to hold himself together well but often at night he lays awake, staring into the shadows, imagining that he can hear his darling Fate screaming. Sometimes he talks to her as if she's there, before she got sick, and sometimes he has nightmares about their battle. These are things he keeps to himself has only confided in the Medicine Cats as years of sleeping poorly has affected him a bit in ways he doesn't like to talk about. Labyrinth, for all of his pain and trauma, is a very handsome cat. He is a simple, long-legged, long-furred black and white tom. Most of his body is a smoky gray-black while he does have white paws, a white tail tip, chest, and mark cutting through the right side of his face by his eye. He has white tufts on his ears and his eyes are a solemn sage green. Labyrinth sports a long scar on his left leg from his battle with Fate. As well as their eyes and Fable's body build. In general, Labyrinth doesn't talk much about his own past or Fate- who he will only mention fondly in passing sometimes but he dare not talk about her too much... he wants them to remember her warmly, not violently as she was toward the end of her life. Labyrinth is ferociously protective of Darkfable and Loresayer and they are the only thing he holds higher than his loyalty to his clan. || Heterosexual- widowed. His late mate, Fate, was his Deputy of MysticClan. He is agonizingly lonely but I don't know if he can ever forgive himself enough to let go of Fate and actually be able to move on... he needs to, though. || Father to Loresayer and Darkfable. Widowed- mate of the late Fate. || Formally of MysticClan. || Really doesn't like water much these days. Too much dark can make him manic. || Theme song: Birds- Imagine Dragons. ||
