Name & Clan: Opaquepaw/Hillclan
Age: 6 moons
Gender: Female (She-cat)
Allegiance: Hillclan
Rank: Apprentice
Description: Opaquepaw is a ginger tabby she-cat, with short fur. Her eyes are an emerald green, with flecks of darker green surrounding her pupil. Though the length of her body is shorter than most, her limbs are long and lanky. Her tail is long and bushy, usually ending up in her way. There is a splotch of white on her chest, the only other color besides ginger on her body.
Personality: Opaquepaw tends to be shy around those she doesn't know very well, while she is energetic and fun-loving around her closest companions. Around enemies, she tends to keep her cool and brush off hate, she feels that life should be full of hope. Her favorite activities tend to be either going down to the Grassy Clearing and watching the clouds roll by, or playing with her friends. Though her keen sense of smell helps her when tracking creatures, her hunting abilities aren't spectacular. Her one weakness is that she feels sorry for hurting creatures like mice, and she tries to set them free. Many look down on her for this, but Opaquepaw sees it as a sign that she wasn't meant to hunt and hurt, but to somehow bring peace. But for now, she does the best she can to feed her clan and prove herself to those around her.
History: --Kithood--
Born to two fierce warriors, Mysticbreeze and Chromestrike, Opaquekit was the runt of the litter. Her siblings would always push her around and make fun of her scrawny size. Her parents would always tell stories of their battles and how someday she too would fight like them. But, Opaquekit wasn't interested in fighting, she was in love with nature. Just a butterfly dancing on the breeze would be enough to get her excited. Mysticbreeze began to grow worried about her daughter, and tried to teach her a few battle moves. The ginger tabby would always try and as hard as she could, but always managed to sink her mother's hopes.
In the dead of night, Opaquekit heard the sounds of a struggling cat, and left the nursery to see what had happened. The sounds grew louder the more she dashed into the Grassy Clearing. She found her mother, being beaten to death by a group of rogues, she dashed back to camp to find her father. When Chromestrike arrived there, Mysticbreeze was dead, he charged into battle to avenge her. As he died in the grip of the rogues, Opaquekit watched the entire thing in horror, trying to remember anything her mother had taught her. She couldn't bring herself to fight, and fled back to camp, to seek help from the warriors.
The rogues were killed for what they had done, but Opaquekit still feared for her life. Most of the clan felt sorry for her, and tried to comfort her when possible. But her siblings hated her for not standing up for their parents, and letting them die in agony. Opaquekit blamed herself for what happened, and hoped to prove herself as an apprentice to her siblings.
Relatives: Mother: Mysticbreeze (deceased)
Father: Chromestrike (deceased)
Sister: Maplepaw
Brother: Trinitypaw
Brother: Ravenpaw
Other: The deep blues of the night were replaced by streaks of crimson and orange. The sun was rising over the horizon, and Opaquepaw was ready to greet the day. Though she had just been named an apprentice, she already felt as though she knew so much. Her mentor, Aurorasky, had just taught her the day before how to track creatures, something she excelled at. Yesterday alone she must have tracked at least a dozen squirrels and voles, maybe more! She sighed, looking down at her ginger paws, letting embarrassment wash over her pelt. Though she was good at tracking creatures, the thought of killing them for food sent chills down her spine. She didn't know why, but she hated the thought of jabbing her claws into the fur of a defenseless vole and watching the life slowly drain from its limp corpse. "Oh well, today is a new day. I've got a feeling its going to be a good one."
