Brief History & Personality

Sagepaw has spent his entire life within Oakclan. He has lead thus far, a quiet, unassuming life. He was born during lean times, and many of his mother's; Lichenglow's, kits were still born. Only Sagekit and his sister, Owlkit made it. Food was scarce and after only a few brief weeks of coexisting, Owlkit died from starvation. Sagepaw survived the famine season he was born into barely, and even now, still looks slightly underweight and smaller than he should be. Not many litters were produced during the famine and as a result, he usually spent time with his older brother, Hailstrike, who was from an earlier litter and was a young warrior by the time Sagekit came around. Even with the occasional company of his brother, he kept mostly to himself and unlike most other kits at his age, was very reclusive and aloof. Sometimes he would wander off and go to the furthest reaches of the clan camp, tracing the camp borders. He often walked close to the delicate line of where he could and couldn't go as a kit, but never strayed too far outright. Even as a small kit, he had a precocious sense of independency and balanced maturity. Though of course, with his insatiable curiosity comes danger, as adventure and peril oft go hand in hand.

Around the time he was four moons old, he decided to be slightly rebellious for once. He had never passed through the hunting grounds of the camp, as that was an unspoken off-limits area for him. Perhaps it was his highly individualistic side that swayed him to journey outwards. With quiet determination, he left from his mother's side and ventured off. He had not foreseen the heavy rains to come later that day, as the sunshine filled day betrayed the turbulent weather that would strike.

Sagekit friskily padded along the banks of the river that lies just south of the camp. The new sense of freedom that he had was like an ambrosia to him, and it intoxicated him with emboldened self-pride. Then, calamity struck. Seemingly without warning, torrential rains poured down from the firmament and onto the ground with no mercy. The mud he stood upon sunk beneath his paws and he was swept into the raging current of the river.

Fortunately for him, there was a border skirmish going on between Lightclan and Oakclan that day. The patrol had just chased the lightclan warriors away and were getting ready to head back when a senior warrior from Oakclan noticed an unusually shaped creature bobbing up and down in the rapids. Wondering what it might be, the warrior plucked Sagekit from the water and realized it was one of the kits from Oakclan. Rushing back to Oakclan, Sagepaw had faced yet another trail life had thrown to him.]

Sagekit opened his vibrant eyes to a medicine den. Hovering over him was Frostwhisker, the medicine cat. Sweet relief to be alive, he stirred his leaden joints as life rushed back into his small frame. From then on, he was enamored with Frostwhisker, following her around faithfully, asking questions and doing whatever he could to help her. Not only was he thankful to be saved, his rescue had awakened a new spark of devotion to the pursuit of medicine. He talked more than he ever had in the past while in the medicine den, and he began to dwell there as if it were his own den. Soon enough, his wishes came true and just a moon ago, he became the medicine cat's apprentice.

Flametail

"Sometimes I wonder just how exactly you managed to survive out there on your own for so long."

Name: Flametail.
Previous Name(s): Flamekit, Flamepaw.
Breed: Turkish Van/Maine Coon.
Age: 24 moons.
Gender: Tom.
Clan: OakClan.
Rank: Warrior.
Mentor(s): Fogpool. (NPC)
Apprentice(s): Daisypaw.
Parents: Frostface (NPC, deceased), Wildheart (NPC, deceased).
Sibling(s): Finchwing. (NPC)
Mate(s): N/A.
Kit(s): N/A

Backstory:
“You’d expect a cat with a heritage like yours to be a lot less cowardly, don’t you think?”

Flametail was born in OakClan as an orphan, as his mother, Wildheart, had complications when birthing her kits. His father had died before he was born, and he only had one other sibling, a brother named Finchwing. Flametail is descended from a line of exceptional warriors from many clans, including OakClan. His father, Frostface, was much loved throughout the clan until his untimely death. That being said, he has always had pressure upon his shoulders and was always expected to be just like good ol’ dad. But that was never the case. Flametail was slow to learn as an apprentice, often frustrating his mentor. Finchwing became a warrior a moon before him, despite being the youngest in the litter of two. After his own warrior ceremony, Flametail became somewhat aloof from the clan, especially since his brother got all of the attention, attention that Flametail didn’t seem to care about. Finchwing’s pride slowly started to draw a gap between the brothers, and now the two hardly exchange anything other than a quick glance.

Brief Personality:
Flametail tends to keep to himself, but he is not shy. He is fairly easy to get along with, and is a very kind tom who will look out for those he holds close to his heart. He doesn’t have many friends, but the few he does speak with from time to time always say good things about him. He is always willing to help those in need (if they don’t call for his brother first). But what he makes up for in brains (and kindness), he lacks in brawn and courage. Flametail uses his head most of the time, which means he is not willing to fight when it comes to combat. He will either try to talk an enemy out of violence or he will flee, and more often than not he will be forced to choose the latter. He is not a coward, despite what most of his clan believes. He thinks of himself as smart. Flametail knows a battle between himself and another will be unmatched, as he has never, ever been the best at combat. Although a fight would not result in death, it would be very close, os he tends to practice evading targets rather than subduing them.

Daisypaw

"You're really no fun at all, Flametail."

Name: Daisypaw.
Previous Name(s): Anya.
Breed: Persian x Ragdoll x Norwegian Forest Cat.
Age: 9 moons.
Gender: She-cat.
Clan: OakClan.
Rank: Apprentice.
Mentor(s): Flametail.
Apprentice(s): N/A.
Parents: Hibiscus (NPC, deceased), Marek (NPC, deceased).
Sibling(s): Mara (NPC), Oren (NPC, deceased), Anju (NPC, deceased).
Mate(s): N/A.
Kit(s): N/A.

Backstory:
“I’m sorry, Anya. The Clans will take care of you.”

Daisypaw has only been in Oakclan for 2 moons. She was born a loner named Anya. No, not a rogue, not an ex-clan cat. A loner. Her family lived south of LightClan, where they lived a pretty quiet life away from other cats. While the family did have friends (other loners, of course), they were never really close with anyone. The family managed well on their own, but without the safety of an organized group (such as a clan), they were more susceptible to attacks and of course, treason without consequence.

Anya had an older sister from a previous litter named Mara who became interested in a group of rogues that often harassed other cats and sometimes, even the clans. Since a love interest of Mara’s had rejected her after joining a clan, she decided to get back at him and used the group for leverage and protection. She promised her family would not be harmed as long as they didn’t get in their way, but their mother, Hibiscus, threatened to “disown” her if she followed through. Mara grew angry and somewhat hurt over this news, and decided to make her family comply with force.

However, her new groupmates took this the wrong way and instead of scaring and bribing the family, started to slaughter them. Mara managed to save Anya and led her far away, just until the rogues stopped chasing them down. Little did she know that the rogues only stopped tracking them once they smelled the border markers of OakClan, and ran off. Unable to cope with her acts of treason, Mara reassured Anya that soon, a clan-cat would find her and make her into a sturdy, robust warrior. After hearing someone approaching in the bushes, Mara quickly ran off, and seconds later, a white and orange tom appeared to check out the scene. His eyes met Anya, and soon, that would be the start of her life as a clan-cat--this time, as Daisypaw.

Brief Personality:
Daisypaw is misunderstood, especially by apprentices and other cats around her age. She is mistaken for a mean-spirited spoiled brat given her tendency to be Scroogelike when it comes to sharing food. But that is due to how she was raised. Being a loner, you didn’t have a freshkill pile, you had to take your fill or starve. Alas, Daisypaw doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. She’s just not used to being in a large group of cats that aren’t family, which causes her to shy away from others--and of course, others to shy away from her.

Although mildly unapproachable, Daisypaw is actually quite an interesting cat indeed. She learns quickly and is always ready for an adventure, no matter the circumstances. That being said, she is rather courageous, which stems from her distant upbringing. However, her bravery can often get her into trouble, and the fact that she is bright when it comes to learning as an apprentice can make her complacent. Once she learns something new, she grows bored quickly, which is why her mentor, Flametail, has a difficult time with her. Other than that, she is a young she-cat that can be easy to get along with, as long as you’re nice to her. She’s loyal to her new clan, and maybe even a little hostile towards outsiders (but that’ll be more evident later…)

Hope these two are alright! All done during school. x.x

[ViolentViolet]

@Pastel Moon Also good. Feel free to move them over to the character tab.

[The Elvenqueen]

D'oh, maybe I should do tthat with mine too huh x'D I'm a dweeb, don't mind me :') done it now lol

[Sewer Rat]

@Pastel Moon Me too! Nice characters!

[Pastel Moon]

@WelcmeToGudBrgr

Thanks!

@ViolentViolet

Well, both of his parents went rogue at one point of their lives. One was from Lightclan and the other from Boulderclan. They settled in small areas which wasn't touched by the clans.

Technically he doesn't belong in a clan, more just roaming around.

I planned on him predicting a drought before and no one listened. It came and then he earned some trust from some cats in the clans, especially the medicine cats. He's deemed truly neutral and has been able to cross borders without a problem, given that they laid attention anyway.

@Polaris North

Not too sure I'm a fan of him crossing borders just because.. And typically signs etc are sent to Medicine Cats? I mean, he sort of fits, but more in a 'Power of Three' kind of thing. He sounds like an old and no-fucks-given Sol.

[Polaris North]

@ViolentViolet

Hm, yeah, I suppose. I just imagined that there are some other cats who can see visions without them being medicine cats.

Ah, but it's alright if I can't play him. It was just an idea to see if we can create more tensions and the likes.

[ViolentViolet]

@Polaris North

I think for now, that LightClan and the whole "code not done yet" thing is good for tension. But keep the idea! We can talk it out and plot for later ^.^

[Polaris North]

@ViolentViolet

I'll keep it around, and then just tell me if you ever need it. Meanwhile, I'll see if I can make another character. Not too sure though.

[Pastel Moon]

Just thought about this, but if anybody read Flametail's backstory and wanted to create tension, you could totally play his somewhat pretentious brother Finchwing.

You'd be lookin' for a Turkish Van [mixed] cat, so white and orange. Twins ftw. xd

[Polaris North]

@ViolentViolet

Oh one more question, do the Medicine Cats convene every half-moon (was it the half moon, my memories are a little iffy) to talk to Starclan and everything?

[ViolentViolet]

@Polaris North

Hmm... I hadn't thought of that. I think that they would at this point, since they've been clans for a while I guess? Defs. They'd go to the Moonfall (that little blue spot near the top of the map. I've got an image around here somewhere)
