Description
(Taken straight from Barley's old ref sheet)

Name: Barley | Barleypaw | Barleyleap
Gender: She-cat
Age: 16 moons
Clan: Moonclan
Rank: Warrior Queen
Mentor/Apprentice: Deathsong , Timidpaw

Appearance: Pale tan-coloured Scottish Fold. Has various other darker tan markings. White underbelly, paws, and tail tip. She has scars on her right hind leg from where Dawncloud bit her. There are two scars on her forehead from the fox, and her shoulder is scarred and misshapen. It's not uncommon to see her limping along, due to her shoulder being a bit crippled.
She's slightly smaller than the other she-cats her age, and she's much smaller than any tom (except maybe Breezepaw 'cause he's a shorty). Because of her smaller size and sleek build, Barleyleap is a very fast runner, although she can't run for as long anymore due to her shoulder. Her mother used to say that she was the fastest in her litter. She can be swift and quite graceful, but she tends to make little slip-ups, making her look more clumsy than she really is. She's not a fan of climbing trees though. Not because she can't keep her balance, but because she's kind of afraid of heights. She's very good at running and jumping from tree to tree due to her gracefulness, but she isn't known to do it often for fear that she'll slip up and/or fall.
Voice:
Kit/Apprentice [Scootaloo]; Adult [Rainbow Dash]

Personality: Barleyleap is a kind, friendly she-cat. She generally very caring toward everyone, even cats she doesn't know. She's still a bit childish, although she's a warrior now, but she knows when she needs to be serious. She's known for her determination, but she's also known for being rash, sometimes charging into situations without thinking or saying things she doesn't really mean. She's definitely a tomboy, and she's not afraid to get down and dirty in whatever she does. She's mostly oblivious to when toms are interested in her/flirting with her and usually requires someone to tell her straight out. The subject makes her a bit uncomfortable though.
After the fox attack, Barleyleap became somewhat self-conscience and sometimes beats herself up inside for being slightly crippled. She fears that she won't be able to help her clan anymore because of her injury and fears that they will shun her or force her to retire early. She often wonders if they think less of her now, especially since her injury and the deaths of the clanmates on patrol with her were all her fault [or so she believes]. She also no longer believes that she's beautiful and doesn't believe that anyone will ever love her. Her pregnancy has made her much more stressed out and terrified, so it's not uncommon to find her crying or worrying over one thing or another. She's excited to be having kits, but... something about it seems to be bothering her.

History: Barley was a kittypet living with her nice kittypet family in a nice kittypet home. She had been born to her kittypet mother and has two other siblings (she was the youngest/smallest), but she had never known her father, although it had never really bothered her that much. She'd heard stories about him from her mother though; a strong, handsome cat who lived in a forest far away with other strong, brave cats. Barley's mother had lived there too once, long, long ago. Both of them had left together, but Barley's father mysteriously disappeared one day (probably went back to the clan). Barley's mother had been taken in by the twolegs, where she had had her kits.
One day, Barley's mother left the twoleg nest and didn't return. She did this often, likely out trying to re-live her old life by hunting or something, so her kits never really worried about it. But after several days passed and she still didn't return, Barley began to grow worried. She told hier siblings that they should go out and look for her, but they only laughed at her, saying she was mouse-brained for even thinking of such a thing. But Barley was determined to find her mother, so she left then next morning without telling either of them.
The pale kit wandered for days, trying to follow her mother's slowly fading scent. When it was finally completely gone, Barley figured she should just give up. She thought about going home, but she couldn't bear the thought of facing her siblings and getting laughed at again. That, and she had absolutely no idea where she was. Another day later, however, she picked up on another scent. But it wasn't the scent of his mother; it was the scent of other cats! Lots of them! Could it be like the group of cats that her parents cam from? She followed the scent only to come across Moonclan's territory. Absolutely exhausted, Barley sat down and waited to see if anyone would come by and talk to her. Eventually, she was found by a patrol and taken into the clan's camp, where she became an apprentice under the name Barleypaw.

She found out from Patchstar a few moons later that her parents were both from Moonclan, making her a pure Moonclan cat. This helped ease her worries about fitting in, although they still trouble her every once in a while. She asked Patchstar if she could be named Barleyleap when she became a warrior in memory of her father, Hareleap.
After she was made a warrior, four foxes invaded Moonclan territory and one of them attacked Barleyleap and her patrol while they were out searching for them. The fox seriously wounded the she-cat, ripping a large chunk of skin and muscle off of her shoulder and almost killing her. She healed after many days of rest, but her shoulder didn't heal properly. This caused her to become a bit crippled and forces her to limp around a lot, though not all the time.
Soon afterwards, she discovered that she was pregnant and has been stuck in camp a lot.

Relationships~

Moonclan
Patchstar: She's a lot like a mother to me; I look up to her a lot. I feel like I can talk to her about anything. Her and Dave's kits are so adorable!

Breezepaw: He's very skilled at what he does. I... trust him.

Sorrelfox: He's my very best friend. I still love him... I can truly be myself around him. We still try to hang out together often, even though I'm stuck in camp most of the time due to my injury and my pregnancy.

Deathsong: He was my mentor; I feel very close to him. He's become more worried about me since he found out I was pregnant... I didn't know he cared so much. It... it makes me really happy.

Eagletalon: I feel like I've lost him... he still doesn't know about my pregnancy, but I feel like that will cause him to drift farther away than ever....

Timidpaw: Timidpaw is now my adorable little [foster] sister, as well as my apprentice! Everyone deserves a loving family, including her. She's so kind and sweet, I just wish she'd believe in herself more. Perhaps I can help her to do that~ I hope I can teach her what she needs to know.

Fuzzypaw: Fuzzypaw is Timidpaw's foster sister, making her mine as well. I'll have to talk to her more~ I'm so happy that she's an apprentice now!

Trivia!
I've always had a fondness for the name Barley-, so that's where her name came from!
She was originally going to be a tom.
Her warrior name was originally going to be Barleyheart.
I changed her name to Barleyleap to be like her father, Hareleap.
Scottish folds are one of my favorite breeds of cat, which is why I made her one.
I find her easy to roleplay because her personality comes from my more playful side, as well as my paranoid/emotional side haha.
Her feeling that she doesn't fit in/belong anywhere mirrors my own.
