[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=width,420,true][cs=2] PALEMYRTLE ● WARRIOR ● PINECLAN |
| [GREGARIOUS] ● [SPIRITED] ● [OBEDIENT] | General Knowledge Age: 46 Moons Breed: unknown. Reason for Name:prefix Pale - at birth, Palemyrtle was nothing more than a white kit with cloudy, barely-there grey markings. Compared to her darker siblings, she was the 'palest' of the lot, and so she was gifted with the name. Over time, her grey patches began to darken, but it wasn't until well into her apprenticeship that they settled into their current shade. While she still is rather pale, with her soft blue-greys and whites, she is not as 'pale' as she once was.
suffix Myrtle - This suffix stems (quite literally) from one of the twoleg plants that Pineclan was taught by Kitewing. The plant is a small tree, tall and thin -- and it has teardrop shaped leaves with silvery undersides. The bark is also a papery-grey. The suffix was chosen to accentuate not only her thin, tall physique but also the blue-silver-grey that had not been aptly named.

Lilywhisker was a vibrant young cat, and Firebelly a kit-hood friend and friendly-rival had mooned over her for a majority of his life. She was blissfully ignorant, until after a disastrous patrol where she was incapacitated and force-bred. He stood by her side, and the two entered an agreement. They're union was surely to ensure that her kits would have a father, and no one would question their heritage. Later, Lilywhisker came to realize how long he had loved her, and stayed. Her kits were born at the peak of Newleaf. Dark-kit was very sick and malformed, and his bent and crippled body did not survive to see his first sunrise. Pricklekit was first, following by Palekit, then Ginkokit and finally Ravenkit. The kits were a wide variety of colors, no doubt from their dubious heritage. If anyone questioned their genes, they certainly didn't hear about it. Firebelly was their father, and that was that.
Their kit-hood was fairly normal, in the scheme of things. They snuck from the nursery as most kits, ruined a few leaves in the medicine cat's den and loved any story an elder had time to tell them. Palekit was very fond of old Sprucestep's story of the apprentice Blackpaw and his rabbit-friend, of his ability to speak to all and any living creature. Apprenticeship came slowly, as it usually does for kits.
She became Palepaw in time, along with Pricklepaw, Ravenpaw and Ginkopaw. Apprenticed to Specklefeather, who was at that time a young warrior. They were great friends, and he taught her well. It was this time that she realized she too, could understand the speech of creatures -- perhaps that was why the stories had appealed to her so. With it came the expected guilt, of killing a creature you could understand. She learned to hunt as little as possible, and is especially merciful with her kills. Still, it is a skill that she is ever intrigued by. She was apprenticed for just under ten moons, and became a warrior at sixteen. She received a name to honor the steely blue-grey of her markings, that had steadily darkened over her life.
Just a moon into their warrior lives, a small rumble in the earth grew, and intensified. A few buildings on the edges of their territory collapsed, and a hunting party who happened to be in the area at the time was severely injured. Pale's youngest brother Ginkofoot was killed in the falling rubble along with a young apprentice. Two other cats were injured. Their bodies were not able to be recovered, but warriors were sent to sit vigil by the rubble. Palemyrtle and her siblings were among the few. (~Year 8 Moon 6) Lilywhisker and Firebelly move into the elders den together not long after Ginkofoot's death. She is glad to say, though -- that her warrior life has been largely uneventful. Clan drama is inescapable, but for the most part the three clans have been peaceful. The Mosquito sickness claimed many lives in Pineclan and Roseclan. Palemyrtle was spared as was most of her family. Firebelly however fell ill and his old frail body did not recover. | Bear current characters: Ironcall image source:
