Description
Name: Splashleaf
Gender: She-Cat
Rank: Warrior (Former NightClan Medicine Cat)
Mentor: Meadowpool (former, NightClan)
Apprentice: Cherrypaw
Personality:
Splashleaf is a quiet, sweet, painfully shy she-cat with an enormous capacity for love and affection. Jumpy and timid, she has relatively severe social anxiety and is absolutely terrified at the prospect of large crowds (or any gatherings at all) or extensive social interaction. Her entire body language is that of submission - her ears held back against her head, tail held low and oftentimes sweeping the ground. She has a knack for going almost unnoticed, and, if it wasn't for how easily startled she is it would be a skill worthy of praise - although it is entirely due to her hope to not be noticed. It's very rare to see her make eye contact with any cat - apart form her mate, Shiningwing, and four kits - and prefers to keep her gaze low and direct as little attention to herself as possible. Her shyness is startlingly obvious - her paws often shake when talking, and she has a stutter that grows more severe under stress - even her gait is unsteady and unsure. Despite this, once she grows close to a cat she begins to flourish and be herself. She craves affection from those she cares about though is terrified of the touch of strangers - she absolutely loves snuggling and being close to her mate and kits, and takes great comfort in Shiningwing's presence. Her self-confidence is extraordinarily low in almost all areas - rarely will she take charge and truly show her skills and potential. Extremely polite, she tries her best to start as little conflict as possible, and had been a mediator between cats on multiple occassions - a skill she would master if she wasn't so terrified of the prospect. After the birth of her kits, her motherly side has really, truly flourished, and extends further than to just her own kin.

HighClan
Talonstar
S-she is perhaps the most intimidating cat I've ever met - apart from Hemlockstar. But...she's an amazing leader, an amazing cat overall and...I owe her everything for...for allowing me to stay. For allowing HighClan to become my new home. I d-don't know what I'll ever do to make it up to her. S...she does terrify me, it's true, but...th-that's alright.
Deepwater
I...I like Deepwater a lot. She...she saved me from the Sharptooth back when I was an apprentice. But I haven't really t-talked to her since I came to HighClan. I...I'm not sure she is v-very fond of me.
Shiningwing
S-Shiningwing! He's my mate...he's everything to me - my entire world. H-honestly, I...I never expected to fall in love...to be loved. I never thought anything would mean more to me t-than being a medicine cat, but...then I met him. And everything changed. H-he's always been there for me, always b-been the greatest friend I've ever had. I love him more than the stars themselves and I wouldn't give him...or our family...up for the world.
Snaketail
...
Solarstorm
I...she...she and Shiningwing...were mates. H-honestly, I'm a-absolutely terrified of her and...I still f-feel guilty whenever I see her. I just...I want t-to apologize, to say something, b-but...I don't know what to say.
Pitchpaw, Rookfeather, Rosepaw (Protective)
These three...t-they don't know me, t-there's no reason for them to, but...I still feel protective over them. I...I helped Talonstar give birth to them, Jetpaw, Lostpaw, and Yewpaw. I-I can't believe Rookfeather's already a warrior. I hope t-the other three are safe and happy.
Burningpaw
M-my eldest son...he has all the makings of an extraordinary cat. He's the most level-headed of all of his siblings and has always held himself with confidence...he's growing up so strong and he's going to make the Clan proud someday - I k-know I've been proud of him and his siblings since the day they were born.
Emberpaw
My little Ember...he's my middle son, and the most quiet of his siblings. He's so sweet and polite to everyone he meets and I'm so proud of how he's growing up. He's perfect just the way he is, and I hope he realizes just how special he is and has been ever since he was born.
Scorchpaw
My little warrior! Scorchpaw is my youngest son and s-so much like his father - he has been since before he could open his eyes. He's always radiating confidence and he's growing up so strong and handsome. I know he's a troublemaker and quite a pawful - he always has been- b-but he has a good heart, just like Shiningwing.

Sorry to bother you, but for the HighClan assignment, would you like to Roleplay something out or should I just whip something up?

Roleplay works for me uwu
Cool winds blew over the mountaintops, sending a light chill down the tortoiseshell's spine. The skies were a pale gray, dotted with heavy clouds, and the air smelled crisp and fresh and absolutely wonderful.
Nothing like Splashleaf currently felt. She was terrified, nerves roiling in her chest, her stomach knotted and painful with anxiety. She was pacing, delicate pawpads thudding down on cool rock, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Shiningwing had left earlier for a patrol, and many of the other mentors had already descended from the camp to begin training. The sun was still low in the sky - it had yet to break through the dense cloud cover that hung above the mountain's peak. She swallowed, lifting a tentative, shaking paw, before peeking her muzzle into the apprentice den. "Ch....Cherrypaw?"
A quiet voice called out, shaking and laced with muted terror.

Cherrypaw had gotten to bed pretty late the night before with all her worries towards the flooding and eagles. But ever since Burningpaw had asked her to share a nest with him, until the danger was gone, she'd been able to close her eyes earlier and earlier. At the sound of her stuttered name, she blinked one pale yellow eye open. At first the cloud that covered her vision between sleep and wake obscured her from depicting who it was that was calling her. But when she lift her head and blinked both eyes rapidly, she could see that it was the blue eyed face of her mentor. This made her jump to her paws and stretch quickly before standing up straight and smiling at the she-cat.
"Good morning Splashleaf! Are we going to train today?" She asked eagerly, her pale eyes wide with excitement.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
"M-morning," She purred quietly, doing her best to offer a smile to the smaller she-cat in return, before giving a hesitant nod, an ear wavering slightly as she did so. "I...I w-was thinking we could practice h-hunting," After all, she was hardly capable of teaching fighting - she had been a healer for most of her life and had yet to be trained in the art of combat (something she doubted she would succeed in, but for the sake of HighClan, she would try). "I...I think it'd be best to start lower, and i-if we don't have any luck go higher," The tortoiseshell mewed, more of an uncertain question than anything else. She knew the lower territory was much marshier than usual, but it was the closest to anything she had experienced hunting on - and since she wasn't confident in her fighting skills, she didn't want to bring Cherrypaw into a situation where they might facfe eagles. Splashleaf swallowed, once again feeling her stomach tighten into knots - she still had much to learn before accepting herself as a proper warrior - she just hoped it was fair on Cherrypaw that she had been assigned to her. Her tail wavered.

"Sounds great. I haven't had any real training for hunting so that's a good thing to start with." she declared, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. Maybe then Quinn wouldn't have reason to snap at her as well. She fluffed out her fur once more to make sure that the still slightly chilly winds didn't get to her before carefully making her way out of the den. She looked at the tenseness in Splashleaf's shoulders and felt guilt well up in her stomach. Splashleaf obviously wasn't thrilled with the idea of training her... she'd have to be extremely good at listening and make sure not to be a burden. She stood waiting outside the den for the she-cat to take the lead.

A hint of a relieved smile crossed the tortoiseshell's features at Cherrypaw's approval, and she nodded, lifting a trembling paw, the wind buffering against her with a surprising force, ruffling her thick pelt and tinging her scar with a cold touch. The lower they went the lighter the winds, she assumed, so hopefully they'd manage to stay warm as well - the grey she-cat was still very young, and while she didn't voice her worries, she didn't want her to have to take an unexpected trip to the medicine den. Swallowing, she offered Cherrypaw a hesitant smile, curled ears flattened uncertainly, before trotting lightly to the entrance of the camp, her stomach reeling with each step. There was no doubt she was terrified - how could she possibly train a warrior?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cherrypaw smiled widely at the she-cat and trot happily after her. It was her first real training session with her mentor... and though she was quite nervous of the outcome, she'd been out of camp before on her own. The she-cat had been too excited, as soon as she'd been apprenticed, to wait for her busy mentor to take time off for her first session. So she'd rounded up her brother and mom and gone off with them a few times. She hadn't caught anything yet... but she was sure that Splashsleaf would help her accomplish that. She pad enthusiastically after the dappled she-cat, doing her best to not slow her pace as the terrain got muddier. Her pale eyes looked around with wonder and she smiled as the new scents and sights surrounded her.

A Massive tom padded into the nursery, his thick Maine coon like fur soaked due to the constant pouring that had been going on lately in Highclan. he had one mission and one mission only, to get to his mate's nest, containing his family, with dry prey, so far it'd been successful, tucking the couple of mice under his fluffy chin and running tot he den. He nodded to Shadeblossom on his way in, as he always did and began to pad through the playing kits and relaxed queens. he acknowledged almost all of them with a nod or a smile, but his gaze stopped on Splashleaf, the Nightclan queen and his eyes narrowed in an obvious glare.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The air was damp with moisture, the distant sound of rain pattered and puddled on the stone, and occasionally a crack of thunder split the sky, charging the air with electricity. Inside the nursery, however, the storm outside seemed a world away. Inhaling lightly, the tortoiseshell queen let out a quiet purr as her azure gaze rested on her three kits snuggled by her side - all so perfect, so beautiful in their own way. She twitched her whiskers as Scorchkit stretched his small white toes and clambered on top of Burningkit, who simply twitched an ear and continued to sleep through the storm, while Emberkit was snuggled deep into her stomach fur. Already they were growing bigger, and often left the nest to explore or play outside of camp. But now, through the thunder crackling above, all was peaceful. All was right.
Starting slightly, Splashleaf blinked up as she felt a vicious gaze burn into her pelt, and she swallowed as her azure gaze met that of Snaketail, and instinctively she curled her tail tighter around the three sleepin bundles, curled ears flattening against her skull with anxiety. She swallowed.

Every time he saw the queen a hot, boiling anger rose in him. the only reason she, and Shiningwing had stayed was because he wasn't leader.. They were both traitorous. He sighed and dropped the rodents by the sleeping she-cats that were his family. on his way back he made a turn and began to pad towards the she-cat, deciding to finally talk to her "eh hem.." He was bigger than her, obviously. this was how it was with most other cats
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Swallowing, the tortoiseshell queen glanced aside, her heart pounding in her chest as she felt the tom's gaze pierce her pelt. She took a deep breath, doing her best to steady her heartbeat. The last thing she wanted to do was wake up her little ones when Snaketail was nearby. She had always found him absolutely terrifying - ever since she had met him at a gathering when she was an apprentice. And now, most every day she was fixed with that same, burning glare. Flinching slightly as the massive tom's form moved in the corner of her eye, she swallowed and summoned all of her courage to pull her gaze away from the stone. "H...h...hello." She murmured, pupils once more dropping to the floor. She curled her tail tighter around her kits.

He thumped down in a sitting position. He still wasn't happy but he couldn't just glare at her forever. "Shiningwing huh?" his ear flicked in slight curiosity. He'd remembered a long time ago when the two would meet up at gatherings, never did he expect Shiningwing to break the code as such.. or force this she-cat to as well. His gaze drifted slightly form the queen's face to look at the kits. Kit was sad how the tom didn't see his other family as much anymore...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wincing slightly, as if she expected the mottled tom to take a swipe at her, Splashleaf scarcely allowed herself to blink as the tom simply sat and spoke up, and she hesitated for a moment, a curled ear managing to perk ever so slightly at his words. She hesitated, unsure of what to say, before simply giving a quiet nod. She pinned her ears lightly against her skull as his gaze travelled from herself to the three sleeping bundles by her side, and she curled around them tighter, a protective glint in her eye, though her flattened ears wavered as her gaze rested on his muscular form. The queen swallowed.

He sighed and watched them breathe for a moment, despite the fact that they shouldn't of been born.. they were now Highclan warriors.. cats brought into the world by a queen.. and they were certainly cute. His gaze slightly softened "Must've really been special for both of you to do this to Highclan and Nightclan.."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Her own adoring gaze resting on the little ones tucked against her stomach, their sides rising and falling and occasionally letting out little mews, Splashleaf felt a smile grace her maw. The three of them and Shiningwing...they were her world. Despite all of the repercussions, despite the glares and the whispers and despite StarClan's angered gaze watching her...she never would have changed it for the word. Blinking up at Snaketail, she swallowed, moving a paw as Emberkit gave a long stretch and flopped onto his side, she hesitated for a moment, before speaking up. "He...he and our kits...they're everything to me. He's all I've ever had." She mewed quietly, her gaze dropping shyly back to earth.

The tom could only look over his shoulder at his own family. His beautiful mate, finally eating the mouse, as well as his one and only pride, his beautiful, young daughter, Dandelionkit. The most friendly kit he'd ever met. "Yeah.. I get that..." A sigh exasperated from his maw "I guess I'd do anything for my family..." He cleared his through and turned back towards the queen. he wasn't sure if he had introduced himself prior to now, which would only be the right thing to do whether he liked it or not "the names Snaketail.."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Summoning the courage to tear her turquoise gaze from the stony ground, Splashleaf gave a hesitant smile as his gaze drifted over to his mate's nest across the nursery, and the massive tom spoke up once more. She let out a quiet purr as Scorchkit rolled over his brother and nuzzled his face into her fur, and she gave him a gentle lick on the forehead, smoothing out the spiky fur that was so much like his father's. She took a deep breath, half-terrified to say anything, before her bravery eventually won out. She took a deep breath. "I think...there are very few things cats wouldn't d-do when they're in love. L-love is...a strong thing. A-and the best thing in the world." She murmured quietly, allowing her gaze to rest on her kittens once more. A moment of silence passed before the mottled tom spoke up once more, and she nodded as he formally introduced himself - she had first met him at a Gathering long ago after chatting with then-Shiningpaw, and, if she was honest with herself, he had absolutely terrified her then, too. The queen swallowed. "H-how's your kit?" She managed to murmur quietly, doing her best to have friendly conversation. "She's v-very beautiful."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He felt warm inside as she spoke of love. It always seemed to be a touchy subject for him.. "Yeah.. She's 4 moons old..." He couldn't imagine the kit in 2 more moons, being off on her own.. with the possibility of being hurt.. He looked at his snoring kit one more time while the queen was occupied by her own "Sadly.. we could only have one.. Shiningwing did tel me it was because of my Calico origins... I don't know..I wish she had siblings.. so that she always had a friend"

I'll start ^v^~

Slowly blinking her dull blue eyes, the tired queen was glad to finally get some sleep for the first time in a while. She scanned the large nursery that was overcrowded with queens and kits. Her kits, Cliffkit, Wavekit, Dreamkit, and Palekit, her birth litter, and her adopted kits, Bridgekit, and Roekit, were tucked next to her. Slowly, she gently got up, careful not to wake her kits. She looked around to see if someone was awake, and if someone would even talk to her since Fallendream's death.

It had been a few sunrises since the young queen had first arrived in HighClan, and her kitting was drawing nearer with every breath she took. Now that she was in the Clan for what she hoped was for good - she had been allowed to stay, but still she feared that Talonstar might end up choosing to exile her - after all, most HighClanners hadn't taken very kindly to her presence. Her saving grace was Shiningwing - visiting her with the same warmth and care that he had before she had stumbled to the HighClan border and as a result, revealed their secret. Yawning slightly, the tortoishell she-cat blinked open brilliant turquoise eyes, and flinched slightly as a sillhouette of a cat stirred not far from her own nest, and, swallowing, she let out a tiny mew. "H...hello."

Shadeblossom bowed her head slowly, "H-Hi." she replied. Shadeblossom wondered if this Queen would like her, or get mad at her like some of the other Clanmates.
