Character Descriptions

Character descriptions and little odd things and anecdotes and whatnot about the cast.

Fallenstar

Fallenstar has been a leader for many moons. He has lost his mate, and his littermate, Hollowpaw. Every day, Fallenstar is haunted by the day Hollowpaw was attacked by badgers. Every day, he is horrified by the day he watched his mate drown by the murderous paws of Crowstar. He is a noble cat, and will not step down easily.

Duskflower

Duskflower has only recently been made deputy, 4 moons ago. She is sharp-tongued and short-tempered, but that is made up for with her resourcefulness and level-headedness when she’s in a bad situation. Her only vendetta is when her mate, Blacktail, sacrificed himself to save the life of his apprentice and her sisters. Which is why she hates Lightfoot, Dewfrost and Hailcloud.

Tuifeather

Tuifeather, though a knowledgeable she-cat who has proved her worth through many difficult times, she was not accepted easily. Her father, past leader Crowstar, haunted her path as a MeadowClan warrior each day, and when she asked Mintfur, the past medicine cat to apprentice her, the entire Clan had mixed feelings. Would she live up to her father’s name or not? But Fallenstar, despite having his mate killed by her father, accepted Tuifeather, and she has blossomed into a fine medicine cat.

Vinepaw

Vinepaw had always had an interest in herbs when she was a kit. When an outbreak of greencough rocked the Clan, the tabby kit volunteered herself to help look after the sick and fallen warriors. When it came time for her apprentice ceremony, Tuifeather gladly appointed Vinepaw as her apprentice. Vinepaw is proud of her title and looks forward to the countless moons ahead of her, helping her Clan in the best way she can.

Swiftstream

Swiftstream is a quick-thinking, light humoured warrior. He has apprenticed Raintail, and now has been given Possumpaw to teach in the way of a warrior. He is experienced, and specialises in hunting, having one of the best noses in the Clan. Swiftstream is also a proud father of Daisykit and Cloverkit, and mate to Dandelionfur. He is very close to his kits, and protective of them.

Possumpaw

Possumpaw is a shy, rather withdrawn apprentice. Possumpaw misses his mother, Dustytail, greatly, and therefore is very close to his father, Volewhisker. His littermate, Beepaw, is distant to his brother and they prefer to keep to themselves. Possumpaw aspires to be a great warrior and an asset to his Clan.

Treeleaf

Treeleaf is a solemn and completely dedicated warrior. He lives up to his word, even if he is quiet about it. He is silently stubborn, and won’t change his mind easily. Secretly, he seeks a mate, and has a tiny crush on Dewfrost. Though, he doesn’t take action on his love, he is always looking out for her, even if she doesn’t notice.

Starlingflight

Starlingflight is a positive, outgoing cat who always looks on the bright side. She is always hinting to Fallenstar how she wants an apprentice, and wants to be mentor to Tweetkit. She has a special affinity for kits, and one day wishes to have some of her own. Though, she hasn’t decided with whom yet. Starlingflight is an expert in hunting.

Sunlight

Sunlight is a proud, self-centred cat who loves to flaunt himself to others. In particular, he likes Starlingflight, and always courts her in a somewhat dashing fashion. Like all cats, he is loyal to his Clan, but sometimes questions authority. Sunlight loves going on missions and being important to his Clanmates.

Tulipaw

Tulipaw is a sunny apprentice who has her head in the clouds. She often ignores orders and dismisses duties. Though, she is focused on matters like becoming a warrior. She often dreams about being Clan leader, growing old and taking a mate. Her ideal choice for a mate, is Keapaw, and she thoroughly expects he feels the same way.

Dewfrost

Dewfrost is an energetic she-cat who still feels like a kit. She gets into mischief, sometimes forgets about her duties as a warrior, but is a bright and uplifting she-cat. She is caring, kind and loves to fight. Though, she is picky with mates. She wants to find the right cat, and she is ever searching for the right cat.

Beepaw

Beepaw is a prickly, unhappy apprentice who thinks the world is being unfair to him. Though a talented apprentice, he focuses on making others’ lives miseries. He doesn’t succeed. He has a small soft spot for Tulipaw, though is even further disappointed to find out she likes Keapaw. This makes his attitude towards his fellow apprentice aggravated. He has a brother, Possumpaw, but thinks he’s a mouse-brain and stays away from him.

Volewhisker

Volewhisker is a humble warrior, often blending into the background and keeping his feelings under the cover of his satisfied persona. His two kits, Possumpaw and Beepaw, have lost their mother, as he has lost his mate. Dustytail was killed by past MeadowClan leader Crowstar. Volewhisker was therefore quite wary of Starlingflight and Tuifeather, but has come to enjoy their company and even trust them. He’s starting to come back out into the world, and focuses on taking another mate.

Yarrowleaf

Yarrowleaf is a witty, slender she-cat who tends to be secretive and knowingly quiet. She often pokes fun at situations and cheers up others with her slightly black humour. She is physically unable to have kits, and under her cool and collected cover, she is worried that Cricketsong will abandon her if there is nothing to tie them together, like kits. She loves Cricketsong with all her heart.

Cricketsong

Cricketsong is a slightly sarcastic, dry cat who wants to be Clan leader. His no-can-do attitude won’t get him far, though, and he knows that. Though he is cynical, Cricketsong longs for kits and a family. He loves his mate, Yarrowleaf, but since she is unable to have kits, he often thinks of leaving her for another cat that can give him what he wants. He sometimes dreams of a ginger she-cat, and the kits they would have together.

Lightfoot

Lightfoot is a committed, serious cat that is focused on feeding and fighting for her Clan. She is determined that the youth of the Clan will grow up strong and smart. Clever and witty, she gets through difficult situations with ease. She searches for a mate, and the possibilities for mates in MeadowClan are small.

Keapaw

Keapaw is a slightly arrogant, sarcastic and light-hearted cat, always looking for something to pick on. He doesn’t mean any harm, but sometimes he takes things to far, and he gets punished for his tongue. He needs to learn to be kinder to others. Keapaw doesn’t have many plans for a mate, though he knows that Tulipaw likes him.

Cuckoonose

Cuckoonose is a self-centred, jezebel of a cat. She always puffs out her chest and sticks her tail in the air when she is around toms. A turn-off for most toms is her piercing, green eyes. Around she-cats, especially Lightfoot and Hailcloud, and extra especially Dewfrost, she talks down to them as if they’re kits that don’t know better. She doesn’t have many talents apart from being slight, slender and flexible.

Raintail

Raintail is a slightly lazy, though amazingly nice she-cat. She is popular amongst the Clan, and her strongest point apart from her beautiful coat is her hunting skills. She does tend to opt herself out of missions, and that often gets her a hiss or glare, but she is well liked. Raintail spends her free time lazing in the sun, dreaming of finding a mate.

Riverfur

Riverfur is a caring, loving father, who visits his newborn kits: Tweetkit, Mistkit, Beetlekit and Hollykit daily and always brings his mate, Tansypetal, food. Although, sometimes he drops his warrior duties for his kits. Though no cat can blame or dislike him for doing so, sometimes it slows the Clan down.

Hailcloud

Hailcloud is a humorous, lovable she-cat who brightens the days of all. Although she might not be the brightest star in Silverpelt, the Clan can’t help liking her. She is skilled in fighting and making friends in the utmost oddest way. One of her weaknesses is sweetgrass – she loves to roll around in it.

Tansypetal

Tansypetal is a mother of five, four of which are kits, and it takes a lot of stamina and patience to raise such wild and unknowing bundles of fur. She is stern, loving and independent. She loves her sister, her mate and her kits with all her heart that there is barely enough room to pump blood around her body. She would willingly die to save the lives of those she loves.

Dandelionfur

Dandelionfur is a light-hearted, gentle she-cat who is very, very protective of her kits. As a queen, she knows that one day her kits will become warriors, and thus plans to have more with her loving mate, Swiftstream. She does often dream of once again hunting, but she knows her heart lies in helping other kit mothers like herself.

Barkfur

Barkfur is a half deaf, elderly tom who is very wise. He does not have patience for warriors, but is very tender with kits and apprentices teaching them all that he knows and passing on his knowledge. We watches his two kits, Treeleaf and Volewhisker grow up, and stands up for Volewhisker’s kits. He is rather wary of Beepaw’s attitude and lets him know that he is not pleased.

Lilystem

Lilystem is a recently made elder who still wishes she could serve her Clan. She insists on fetching her own prey, and is rather sharp-tongued to Tuifeather when the medicine cat asks if she needs herbs to help her aching bones. Lilystem always argues that she is not dead yet and until she is, she will continue to do things by herself. Although, she silently accepts herbs from her youngest kit, Vinepaw. She also makes frequent trips to the nursery to play with her son Swiftstream’s kits.

Ashpelt

Ashpelt is a rather stern, stubborn elder who continues to give advice to his kits, Riverfur and Duskflower. He is one of the few cats who can withstand Duskflower’s temper, and reminds his dark-tempered daughter that she can always come to him for advice. Though most of his time spent outside of the elders’ den is spent in the nursery, watching over Riverfur’s kits. He also loves watching Tulipaw’s progress as an apprentice.
