Name: Fernstar
Gender: she-cat
Clan: ThunderClan
Rank: Leader
Age: 17 moons
Personality: Fernstar has always been a shy cat, with few friends other than her best friend Ripplemist and her deceased mate Moonstar. She has never liked interacting with other cats, and the only reason she consented to be deputy was because Moonstar appointed her so, and she would have died rather than let him down, despite her fear of interacting with others.
She has low self-esteem, and if it wasn't for Ripplemist she would have broken down with insecurities long ago. She doesn't realise that she is actually a good leader, but Ripplemist is constantly trying to reassure her that she is.
Appearance: Fernstar is a small, pure black cat, named for the tiny brown fern on her tail. Her eyes are a misty blue. They never changed from the colour of her eyes as a kit. She hasn't grown much either, even though she was the runt of the litter. Her pelt is short, and she keeps it immaculately clean, and neat. Her expressions are always unreadable, but this has come only with practice.
History: When Fernkit was born, she was the runt of the litter, much smaller than her brother, Woodkit, and this was always a setback to her, as seeing all the other kits her age being much bigger than her was quite a big blow to her already wavering confidence. She always relied on her brother to look after her, but he was taken by foxes when they were only three moons.
It was around this time when the Clan took in Ripplekit, who was roughly her age and was suckled by her mother. They immediately became friends.
Fernkit soon became Fernpaw, and her parents died in battle during her apprenticeship. This same battle was the battle that left ThunderClan short of warriors, so Fernpaw became Fernfur very soon, at the age of ten moons. Moonbeam, the Clan deputy became her mate, and when the Clan leader died he became Moonstar and appointed Fernfur deputy. He died a few moons later, and Fernstar, in shock at her mate's death, was forced to become leader in his place. The only thing that has kept her going since then has been her best friend; Ripplemist, the clan medicine cat.
RP example: Fernfur closed her eyes. The battle was over. She could rest now, she could find Moonstar...they could be together again.
A gentle, warm greenleaf rain was falling. She closed her eyes for a moment, then turned away to find her mate. She followed his scent to where he lay, outside his den.
"Moonstar?" she whispered in his ear. He didn't respond she looked more closely at him. "Moonstar!" she cried. Only now did she notice the thick, salty scent of blood in the air around his body. "Please, please wake up!" she whispered frantically. "Come on, come on...Moonstar, you have to wake p! We have to go, wake up, please! Please wake up..." she trailed off and let out a desperate yowl that drowned out all the sounds around her. She continued to wail as other cats joined her, trying to comfort her, but she shook them off. "Moonstar..."
Above her, the greenleaf rain began to pour down harder.
Anything else: Uhh...she's very fast and quick-minded, but not very strong. That's pretty much it. OH! and she's scared of water.
Her song is Summer Shudder by AFI. ;D
