Name | Brightpaw
Gender | She-Cat
Age | 9 Moons
Rank | Apprentice
Clan | MeadowClan
Beliefs| Brightpaw accepts how others believe in StarClan. But she herself does not believe in them. Despite being raised completely with the clan, Brightpaw never managed to accept the starry cats into her life. Occasionally she'll have doubts about her disbelief though. The power of StarClan that seems to affect everyone around her sometimes seems too strong to ignore.
She always did wonder what would've happened if she had left MeadowClan for PineClan, seeing how she would fit in a little better. But something always keeps her back. Maybe it's her uncertainty -- she doesn't know.

Appearance | Brightpaw is an average sized she-cat. She's not too small, not too big. Slightly on the tall side, Brightpaw's legs are a bit longer than most. Her paws are also a bit large, to balance out her leg length. At first glance Brightpaw could be considered frail, because of her lack of obvious muscle. But the she-cat does have a healthy bit of muscle built under her fur. Not bulging, though.
Her fur is short, but thick. It stays roughly the same length (getting a bit longer in the winter) all year round. Her fur is longer on her neck, giving Brightpaw a "mane" look to her fur. Her tail fur is also longer than the rest of her fur, covering her long tail in a stream-like motion.
Brightpaw's fur it's self is (as her name suggest), bright. It's a pale ginger color, some parts looking almost white in direct sunlight. As she is a tabby, Brightpaw's stripes are darker than the rest of her fur. The majority of her stripes are on her front legs, chest, and face. The stripes on her back seemed to have melted together to make her back a pure color of darker ginger than the rest of her.
Brightpaw's eyes are a hazel color, leaning a bit more on the brown side. They are set a bit low on her face, giving her a larger forehead then most cats. Her whiskers are short and white, bristling from her muzzle.
Personality |
Shell. Noun.
1. a hard, protecting or enclosing case or cover.
2. an attitude or manner of reserve that usually conceals one's emotions, thoughts, etc.: One could not penetrate his shell.
Brightpaw is protected. In such a short amount of time, this she-cat has formed a shell to keep her safe from any harm. Emotionally, that is. With each new tragedy in her life, Brightpaw managed to put up a new layer, protecting her in the form of a new quality.
That is to say, each time something upset or hurt Brightpaw emotionally, she gained a new personality feature to prevent her self from being hurt next time it happened.
And the features aren't too pleasant.
Brightpaw is extremely blunt. She seems to lack any courtesy in the way she'll outright tell someone what's wrong with them whenever she sees fit. And if that cat refuses to listen to her or talks back, Brightpaw won't hesitate to snap at the cat.
Skills | at least two sentences
History | Constantly moving. Spending little time staying still, little time to rest, and no safe place to stay. A journey, too long, too harsh, and impossibly traumatizing for a kit.
Brightpaw was born on the journey. Her parents were not expecting her and her brother. And the journey was not prepared for the new arrivals either.
