Whisperstar, as her name might indicate, is quiet. However, her silence is widely considered her greatest strength. While she doesn't speak often, when Whisperstar decides to say something, you had better be listening, because it will probably benefit you. Her words are intoxicating, and when she's talking, cats shut up and listen. She knows how to amp up a crowd, but at the same time never wastes words and can be a bit blunt. Whisperstar is also very practical, and doesn't let her emotions cloud her judgement or decision-making.

Before the fall, Whisperstar was also known for her prowess in battle. You wouldn't expect it from such a small cat, especially from WindClan, but her claws and teeth are sharp and deadly. Additionally, she loves running as all WindClan cats do, and although her smaller size prevents her from reaching the top speeds of some of her Clanmates (darn short legs!), she is still quite fast.

Whisperstar is a small, short-furred she-cat, with fur in varying patches of black and white. She is quite small and thin, and many cats tower over her. She has full heterochromia, with her left eye being a very pale blue and her right being pale green. Lean muscles are visible under her coat, forged by a lifetime of running and fighting. On the white patches of her coat, some dust and dirt is usually visible, as cleanliness isn't always her top priority.

H I S T O R Y
Whisperstar was born and raised in WindClan, the frailest and smallest of her litter of three. She was always a quiet kit, and was named accordingly. Her Clan's medicine cat didn't have high hopes for her survival, but Whisperkit hung in there, surprising even her parents. Her mentor, Stormrunner, pushed Whisperpaw to her limits and past them, and the two had a good relationship until Stormrunner's death from greencough. Given the warrior name Whispersong, the Clan quickly came to respect her for her skill in battle and leadership, and she was named deputy almost directly after her first apprentice, Goldenflame, became a warrior.

When the Clans fell, Whisperstar was devastated, especially by the death of her mother, but her practicality overrode her grief. After all, she still had a Clan to care for. She doesn't particularly enjoy leading alongside the other three Clan leaders, but she does still believe that StarClan is watching out for all of the Clans.

Goldenflame is a cat who knows what she wants. As a kit and apprentice, she was quite shy, but Whisperstar, her mentor, was able to coax out her true personality - an assertive, yet kind cat who isn't afraid to speak her mind. She is still somewhat ashamed of her RiverClan heritage, and is always thirsting to prove that she's loyal to WindClan. As a result, when she learned of her father's death in the fall, she felt more freed than sorrowful - maybe cats will finally stop thinking of her as half-Clan now that he's gone.

Goldenflame also counts herself lucky to have lived through the fall, especially because she was pregnant at the time. She's still adapting to life without Clans, and misses her home greatly. She believes that StarClan has abandoned them, and is quite vocal about her views.

A P P E A R A N C E
Goldenflame is a long-furred, golden tabby she-cat. Before kitting, she was quite muscular and strong, although several moons lying around with her kits has worn away some of her musculature. Her fur is long and silky, unusual for WindClan cats, as her father was from RiverClan. She has large, emerald green eyes. There is a small scar on the right side of her neck, obtained in the fall.

H I S T O R Y
Born to a forbidden relationship, Goldenflame and her siblings were disliked and mistrusted by WindClan. In fact, other than her mother, the first cat who Goldenflame felt didn't judge her was her mentor, Whispersong. The two had (and still have) a wonderful relationship, and Whispersong was instrumental in bringing Goldenflame out of her shell. During her apprenticeship, Goldenpaw also became very close with another apprentice, Hawkpaw, and the two became mates a few moons after they earned their warrior names.

Unbeknownst to Goldenflame, though, Hawkstone had been training in the Dark Forest. It was an immense shock to her when the Clans were attacked to see her mate on their side, especially because she was carrying his kits. However, Hawkstone apparently had a change of heart and went back to the Clans, but their relationship isn't the same.

Before the fall, Wolfpaw was outgoing, chatty, and exuberant. She loved hanging out with the other SkyClan apprentices, and reserved her calmer, more focused side for working in the medicine den with Oakbranch. However, witnessing her mentor's death has changed her, and the apprentices no longer want to talk with her. Reserved, quiet, and carrying a lingering sadness, Wolfpaw goes about her work with dignity, yet evokes pity in most cats who see what she can't - that this young cat is one of many who grew up far too fast.

Wolfpaw is a thin-pelted blue tabby she-cat. She is quite small for her age, although she's just now hitting a growth spurt (and she currently gets teased for having big paws). Her ears are very large, and the right ear has a small notch out of it from an accident with a thornbush as a kit. Wolfpaw's eyes are a pale shade of amber, and her nose is a dark, pinkish gray.

H I S T O R Y
Wolfkit was born with her siblings Blazekit and Stormkit to loving, loyal SkyClan parents. From a very young age, when she wandered out of camp and into a thornbush, she had a fear of the world outside the camp. However, this incident also fostered something else for her - a love and respect for SkyClan's medicine cat, Oakbranch. Sure enough, when she and her siblings turned six moons old, Wolfkit chose to become a medicine cat apprentice.

However, Wolfpaw's life after that took a drastic turn. Around a moon into her apprenticeship, the Dark Forest attacked. Oakbranch was killed trying to save his Clanmates, and Wolfpaw was left mentorless and harboring survivor's guilt. While she's now training under the remaining two medicine cats, she's become quite withdrawn, no longer the cat she once was.

Charismatic and cunning, Hawkstone is no fool, but is more than capable of acting the part. A trickster by nature, he is quite skilled in the art of speaking, and before the Clans fell was responsible for preventing multiple border scuffles. His time spent in the Dark Forest has only honed his skills, as they quickly realized that having a cat who can talk his way out of anything would be quite useful.

Hawkstone is also an incredible fighter. Unlike most WindClan cats, he's quick to leap into battle, and his larger size makes him an intimidating cat to cross. In fact, it's for this reason that he was approached by the Dark Forest in the first place. However, he can be quite lazy and if given a choice, he'd rather lie around in the sun than actually do much.

Hawkstone is a short-furred, creamy orange tabby. Like most WindClan cats, he's rather thin, but he's larger in terms of overall height and muscle than many of his Clanmates. He has several scars, most from his time in the Dark Forest, including a bite wound on his neck, deep claw marks across his back, and a short scar over his right eye. His left ear is also shredded. Hawkstone's eyes are a murky, grayish amber, and like the hawk he's named for, are usually described as "piercing".

H I S T O R Y
Hawkstone was born as the only child of his two WindClan parents, who split up shortly after his birth. Neither paid much attention to him, and he grew up resentful. This, coupled with his powerful build, caused the Dark Forest to reach out to him when he was still an apprentice. While he was suspicious at first, persuasion that they were the only cats to truly care for him caused Hawkpaw to set his loyalties with them. However, back in the waking world, Hawkpaw was also growing very close to another apprentice, a bit younger than him, named Goldenpaw. When the two were both warriors, despite what the Dark Forest had told him about outside relationships, he decided to become mates with Goldenflame.

During the fall, Hawkstone realized in the midst of the battle that a Dark Forest cat named Crowstalker was attacking WindClan's nursery - where Goldenflame was. He abruptly switched sides and killed the tom, fighting with the Clans afterward, but Goldenflame and many other WindClan cats had seen him fighting alongside the Dark Forest invaders. Hawkstone's silver tongue managed to talk him back into the remaining Clan cats, and he has since renounced the Dark Forest, but no cat trusts him anymore, including Goldenflame.

Personality
Cinderpaw can best be described as ambitious and dedicated; she constantly strives to better herself and works hard to accomplish her goals. That being said, this tenacity has led her to a certain degree of nosiness, always wanting to be in the thick of action. Once Cinderpaw’s curiosity is piqued, she stops at nothing to get to the bottom of the matter, whether it be exploring an area or pestering her mentor with questions.
Despite being rather naive and susceptible to distrust based on rumors, Cinderpaw is a firm believer in the power of actions over words. She can easily change her opinion based on a small gesture, but once she's formed an idea about something, she will believe in it whole-heartedly.
Cinderpaw is stubborn and can be headstrong, leading her to sometimes butt heads with others. However, she has her clanmates’ best interests at heart. Cinderpaw sees herself fortunate in surviving the destruction of the clans, and believes that her responsibility, aside from training to be the best warrior she can be, is to help piece her clan back together in whatever way possible. She still rather believes in StarClan as she is unable to so easily discard the idea that they would have simply abandoned the clan cats. However, she does not believe that the cats need StarClan in order to thrive in their new lives.

Appearance
Cinderpaw is predominantly smoky grey with darker shades interspersed throughout her thick fur and a lighter grey along her muzzle and underbelly. She has faintly defined dark tabby markings paired with inquisitive yellow-green eyes. Despite the volume of her fur, Cinderpaw has a lithe body, fit with flexible limbs and powerful hindlegs.

Backstory
Cinderpaw was born to Silverbreeze and Sparrowheart in SkyClan, along with two other siblings. She had a happy kithood, growing ever more adventurous by the day. When Cinderpaw and her siblings reached six moons old, she eagerly embraced her role as a warrior apprentice under the guidance of her mentor, Snowfire.
About a moon after she'd begun her training, the Dark Forest attacked. Cinderpaw and her mentor fought together, but were eventually separated as the battle dragged on. After the clan cats fled, Cinderpaw was unable to locate Snowfire, though she still clings to the hope that her mentor survived and will return to them. In the meantime, she's been assigned to a replacement mentor, Meadowstar.
