[BRAVE] ● [DRIVEN] ● [HOT-HEADED]

General Knowledge Age: Thirty six moons Breed: Mixed Reason for Name: SMOKE → His mother noted how dark his fur was, like smoke, when things burn in the forest, except darker. STRIPE → Chosen because of his darker stripes, giving the impression that the 'smoke' that makes up his body moves like smoke itself. Appearance Smokestripe is an unsually dark tabby. Instead of being ginger, or blonde or brown, he is a dark grey, almost smokey colour. His lightest fur colour is beneath his chin, and the darkest parts of his fur are the tabby stripes, almost black in some places. He is an average sized cat of PineClan, nowhere near as big as some of his relatives, but still big enough. His eyes are a mix of yellow and green, sitting in between the hues his mother and father have. They are by no means extra special, nor do they stand out that much. They are round, but in the sunlight he often squints, making them appear almond shaped. Personality BRAVE → Smokestripe has never been known to back down from a fight or a challenge. He is quite brash and quite bold, but he says that's because he's brave, and PineClan needs brave warriors. He doesn't care about taking risks, and will dive straight into things. DRIVEN → Smokestripe works hard. He wants to be the best warrior his clan has seen, but doesn't have any ambition for leadership. He wants a mate, he wants kits, he wants the life any PineClan cat should have. HOT-HEADED → Smokestripe was born with a temper. He gets angry very easily and this will lead to him challenging others if they piss him off. He tries to keep this under wraps, but it's always there, looming, ready to strike if someone annoys him in the wrong (or right) way. AFFECTIONATE → Smokestripe, despite his temper, is quite affectionate, especially towards family. He desires kits of his own after practically raising his mother's second litter. He's tried to make friends with she-cats, but as of yet has not been successful. History Family: DARKFACE → Maternal Grandfather → Large and ugly looking black tom with dark green eyes → Forty-five moons at time of death (Ninety moons) → Dies shortly before the fire on PineClan territory of unknown causes TAWNYFUR → Maternal Grandmother → Tawny tabby she-cat with piercing yellow eyes → Eighty-three moons → PineClan elder NIGHTWHISPER → Mother → Sixty moons → Once sleek black she-cat, fat from having kits, with seering yellow eyes → PineClan warrior BUZZARDCLAW → Maternal Uncle → Large brown and black tom with yellow eyes → Seventeen moons at time of death (Sixty moons) → Dies shortly before the fire on PineClan territory of unknown causes, hoping to catch whatever had killed his father SWALLOWFLIGHT → Maternal Aunt → Sleek black she-cat with green eyes → Sixty moons → PineClan warrior THRUSHCALL → Paternal Grandfather → Lithe brown tabby tom with green eyes → Fifty moons at time of death (One-hundred and two moons) → Washed away in the floods after he went out to hunt. His body was never found. MOUSETAIL → Paternal Grandmother → Small and raggedy brown she-cat with amber eyes → Forty moons at time of death (Ninety-eight moons) → She suffered badly from the drought, and had been sick since it's end. She dies of Whitecough. TIGER-ROAR → Father → Seventy-four moons → Rough and ragged looking tabby tom-cat with green eyes → PineClan warrior GORSEPAW → Paternal Aunt → Seven moons (Seventy-four moons) → Small grey-brown tabby with amber eyes → Catches Red Bite from a friend in StoneClan, but tells no one.

They were born a Alderkit, Crowkit and Smokekit. The clan was pleased to have three young kits to one day train as warriors. They grew up ambitious, wanting more, constantly being caught trying to sneak out of camp to play or to try and hunt, or to find a fox or a badger to pester, whatever they thought up that day. It earned them a reputation for being little troublemakers, and everyone knew it. They would play tricks on other kits - put maggots in their nest whilst they slept, or cover them in spider web. They would even move entire nests while queens were out with their kits, just to confuse everyone.] [→THREE KITS ARE APPRENTICED IN PINECLAN] [When the time came for the three to become apprentices, everyone was thankful that they would have some sense and respect knocked into their thick skulls. Alderpaw was given to a lithe tom called Eagletalon. He was harsh on her, always getting her up early. Crowpaw received a less harsh mentor, but a harsh one nonetheless. His mentor was Adderfang. Smokepaw got off the lightest - his mentor was a soft and sweet she-cat called Lilywhisker. Lilywhisker was patient, and listened to Smokepaw[. Lilywhisker helped Smokepaw release his tense energy and become a hard working apprentice. He was brave, he was driven, but, he was still hot-headed, something Lilywhisker came to accept. Smokepaw became warrior first, aged twelve moons; Smokestripe.] [→THREE WARRIORS BECOME OLDER SIBLINGS] [It was no surprise to anyone when Nightwhisper again retired to the nursery, fat with kits. The three siblings were excited to have younger siblings. They were aged twenty-six moons, and since becoming warriors, life had settled into a regular pace. Crowtail had a mate, and Alderflower had her sights set on becoming leader. So, when the kits were born, Smokestripe was the first to appear. He helped his mother lick the kits clean, and was the first to notice the kit she had named Spiderkit was not moving, wasn't breathing. Panicked, he ran to the medicine cat, begging him to help. But nothing could be done. Spiderkit was gone.] [→THREE WARRIORS AND FOUR APPRENTICES] [Smokestripe spent a lot of time in the den, more than his own father, Tiger-roar. He would tell stories to his younger siblings, teach them fighting moves, and be the best big brother he could be. He wasn't used to being older, so it gave him a sense of satisfaction every time they looked at him with awe, begging him to teach them how to catch a mouse. That carried on until they became apprentices, with Smokestripe taking a back seat and watching them train.]
