Cloudpaw

Behind the Name

Her mother named her Cloudkit because of her petite size, but mainly because of her white pelt. As a kit she was fluffy, living up to the name, but her pelt became smooth when she neared apprentice age. Her Warrior name will be Cloudpetal, because her words often heal those around her because she is very careful of how she speaks. It isn't a referance to healing with herbs, because she knows as much as the ordinary cat. 

Personality

PATIENT Cloudpaw can listen to a cat for hours about problems, then advise them to do something. The Warriors don't take heed of all of her suggestions, but she's learning as she gets older. OPTIMISTIC: Cloudpaw always looks at the good in other cats and always enjoyes whatever she does, although she doesn't enjoy fighting too much. She deals with it and doesn't complain often. ENCOURAGING: Cloudpaw always tells other cats to give it their best in any situation and helps out with lots of them. If she's in a bad mood, the encouraging goes down, but she still talks with other cats about needs and wants. In general, her good side is that she loves others and tries to love everything she does. She loves being helpful, and won't turn her eye away from a cat in need.
OVERSENSITIVE: Whenever a cat mentions another that is sulking around way to often because of a death or something of the sort from moons and moons ago, Cloudpaw still feels pity for them. She feels pity for even the smallest things as well, and hates to feel malicious or anything of the sort to other clan cats. This has made her a weak fighter, and she hates herself for it, but she can't help it. IMPULSIVE: Cloudpaw acts on feeling a generous amount of the time instead of thinking with her brain. She doesn't see that some cats want to be left alone, or have someone already caring for them. It can get rather annoying, especially if she goes up to someone continuously. CLINGY: If Cloudpaw feels something toward someone, she sticks to them like nettle. She is constantly by their side, even if they tell her to buzz off. The only way to get some distance from her is to get her to do a job for them. She can be rather stubborn as well, as a result of the bad sides of her.

Appearance

Cloudpaw has a white pelt that looks slightly cream, darker cream paws and light hazel eyes. She has medium sized whiskers, and long legs, typical of Windlcan cats. She doesn't have any scars, except for one on her front right paw, when she had an accident while hunting. 

History

Cloudkit was always an overly sensitive kit. Whenever someone got hurt, she would have to be by their side. As a kit, she could be brushed off easlily, especially since she was a tiny kit. She was usually ignored, even by her father, who never really loved her, so her mother was really the only family she had.
She became an apprentice, and her mother was out of the nurusry for a few moons, then became pregnant with kits again. Cloudpaw was estatic with joy, because she had always wanted a younger sister or brother. The moons passed, but her mother became sick. Cloudpaw had no clue why her mother was suddenly sick, but she realized that it was because she was always getting in others' way, and her mother had to get her. She was sick from exaustion. Cloudpaw felt extremely guilty, and her father beat on her in his 'special' way. His verbal lashings had made her tremble in fear before, but now she accepted in. It wasn't any different from the past times, but she felt that it was in heart. She hated her father, but she never showed it, and acepted this punishment because she felt that she deserved it. Clowdpaw had, as a kit, become skittish of loud noises as a result, but no one questioned them.
Her mother went into labor early, and because of the combined effort of the sickness and having kits so early after her last litter, she died. Cloudpaw's little brother, however, survived. Her father never let her near him. Cloudpaw was furious. Her mother had named him Adderkit, and she knew that she needed to make him strong like the name suggested. When her father was out on business, and she was free, she would always visit him. They became best friends, and he was really the only family she had. Adderkit grew to dislike his father, because he loved Cloudpaw, and he never understood why the Warrior had disliked her, until she said that it was because she was a she-cat. Cloudpaw was grateful for his help in getting her through her first year of apprenticeship, and she had changed his life. She vowed to always help cats, because even a bit of help can make an eternal difference. Even though her mom was dead, she was happy at how her life was turning out, and she could never have wished it otherwise.
