Personality


Arrogant | Show-off | Intelligent | Caring | Grumpy

{ ARROGANT }
Peachpaw is extremely sure in her abilities to do anything. She is, infact, very good at working with herbs, however, that's really all she's good at, besides bragging about things. Peachpaw always acts like she's the best apprentice around, and always says she's the most important apprentice of all the young cats. She even goes so far as to brag to other medicine cats about her skills, and if they don't take well to that, she has trouble making friends.

{ SHOW-OFF }
Peachpaw is a huge show-off. She'll often rush off without her mentor's permission and say she can take care of any situation. She loves to tell cats about how much she knows about herbs, and even tries to show cats her fighting moves. She hardly has any, but it's impressive that she can figure some out. Some of the older cats find her show-offy-ness is a cute trait, but none of the younger cats like it.

{ INTELLIGENT }
Despite popular belief by the younger generation of cats, Peachpaw is quite intelligent. Since she's been training for already 6 moons as a medicine cat, she's become quite knowledgeable about herbs and things in that area. Most cats don't notice, either, that the apprentice often sits in the shadows and observes battle training, as she also loved the idea of being a warrior as a kit. She knows basic battle techniques, but is most knowledgeable in the life of a medicine cat.

{ CARING }
It may be hard to believe with Peachpaw's always snarky personality that she is actually a loving and caring cat. She would give her life to serve her clan in the best was she can as a medicine cat. She loves all her fellow clanmates, even though she refuses to show it through anything more than a patched injury.
{ GRUMPY}
This apprentice is always grumpy and rude to most the cats around her. There are few cats that she really truly gets along with. Peachpaw is someone who often blows off others like a flea or tick, and treats others like dirt half the time. She dislikes company, and is often blunt with cats who aren't older than 30 moons.


History



{ Before Birth }

Willowsong and Barkroot were bound to become mates at some point. They were best friends since birth. Born on the same day by two different sets of parents. They were only children, and only had eachother for company. As they grew, their feelings grew. When the two were made warriors, they declared themselves mates, but decided against having kits for many moons.

After several seasons, it turned out that Willowsong was expecting kits. The happy couple rejoiced happily, and galloped and danced around. They would be a happy family, and the pregnancy went well. Willowsong gave birth to her kits without difficulty.

{ Kithood }

Peachkit was born with two brothers. Hollowkit, a dark brown, extremely rude tomkit. And Rootkit, a slightly kinder, but still dark tabby kitten. Peachkit looked very different from her brothers, and more resembled her mother with her light colors. Her ears were huge, and she could hear far better than most cats in the clan her age.

The kits grew up under the stories that their father told, of great warriors. Peachkit loved the stories of warriors very much, and couldn't wait to become an apprentice. But one day, that changed. Peachkit found herself one morning with a terrible stomach ache, and managed to wobble to the medicine cat's den. She knew the cat was mostly deaf, but made good work of showing him that it was her stomach bothering her.

She felt bad for the medicine cat, and, jokingly, offered him her ears so he could hear. The cats laughed, and Peachkit began to admire the older cat. She continued coming back to the den, and began to learn about herbs. She disliked most the other cats, and really only ever got along with Rootkit, who always hung with Hollowkit. So Peachkit was always alone aside from Deafears.

{ Apprenticeship }

When Peachkit was called to her apprentice ceremony, surprise rippled over the clan. The she-kit boldly stopped her leader midsentence, and told him that she didn't want to be a warrior. She wanted to be Deafears' apprentice, so that he could use her ears, and she could help the clan in a different way. Many cats objected to the young, foolish cat to be medicine cat apprentice, but Sunstar approved, and after a loud talk with Deafears, she was named Peachpaw, medicine cat apprentice.

Peachpaw continued her training for a pawful of moons. She loved her job, but felt a lot of stress being the only cat in the den who could hear. Since her mentor didn't know the names of the herbs, the she-cat ended up secretly training with medicine cats from other clans. They would gladly, and sympathetically give her help, and the secret lessons went on for several moons, until Peachpaw was confident with the names.

It was all to soon for Peachpaw when Deafears passed away. Being too young to take on the job as full medicine cat, she was ignored, and what should have been her job was offered to a cat called Owlstorm. Owlstorm knew a lot of tricks, Peachpaw knew, because she'd been in the medicine cat's den many a time. But Peachpaw was sure that she knew more. She insisted upon being made a full medicine cat, but was turned down by her leader.

Bitter, Peachpaw began to sometimes regret not becoming a warrior apprentice with her brothers, and because of her clanmates ignoring her insistence that she'd be fine as a full medicine cat-even so young-, the apprentice became rude and snarky. Protective of herself and her mentor. The she-cat decided to, again, train in private, and often sits on the sidelines of the training hollow, teaching herself how to do basic fighting moves. But she refuses to leave the path of a medicine cat. She continues, if only to fulfill what would have been Deafears' dreams of her being great.

Entry 1 "My mentor! He's, like, my favorite cat ever! He's taught me a lot, and I love helping him. He's so cool, I'm glad I'm his apprentice! He's also, like, the only annoying cat I can stand, hehe."
Entry 2 "Deafears...is gone. I can't believe it. I was so proud to be his apprentice. He was such a great cat...even if he couldn't hear well, he was still the greatest medicine cat ever! Now...now I've lost my best friend..."

Roleplay Example



%The-Blue-Tides | Beetlepaw & Pallidprancer
Beetlepaw was genuinely surprised to hear of this information. He wasn't sure what to feel about it. He was famous! But...definitely not for the best of reasons. He'd always be known for being weak, and no cat would fear a weak cat. Again, he shook his head clear, determined not to show his insecurities to this cat. A purr rumbled in his throat. "I'll be the greatest Windclan warrior ever, next to Ratpaw, despite this blasted condition. We'll be Ratstar and...and Beetle...Beetle..." He frowned. "Beetle-something." He mewed, shrugging. "The fearsome leader and his strong deputy!" He purred, staring to the sky, beaming.

He listened to the tom continue, pondering himself what the cat's name could be. After a few moments, he sighed in defeat. "Really, I just can't place a name. I've really never heard of many cats, besides the leaders and their medicine cats. I can differentiate scents, but names, I'm just...not good with names." He mewed, embarrassed. Should he know the names of these cats? He felt panic rise like bile in his throat at the thought of having to learn them.
