HalcyonRiver :: New RiverClan

[Kavik]

Name: HalcyonRiver
Age: 3 Years
Gender: Female
Clan: RiverClan
Rank: Leader

Appearance:
HalcyonRiver has and always will be a sleek, medium-sized cat with beautiful silvery-white fur with brown tucked up underneath. Her eyes symbolize the difference between the emotion of a summer river and the harshness of an icy winter one. Her limbs are long and her fur kitten soft to the touch. She keeps it very well groomed when she isn't looking after her clan.

Personality:
Gentle and wise, HalcyonRiver never passes up an opportunity to teach someone a kind lesson. Be it a hunting lesson for a young apprentice, or a moral lesson for an aging tom. She's only aggressive when she needs to be, and these are only at times where her clan is needing to be defended. Otherwise can be found quite shy and contemplative, wondering at the many mysteries that plague the clans, including what these humans have in store for them.

History:
HalcyonKit
HalcyonKit was the only surviving kitten of her mother's first litter that consisted of five. Her mother, PebbleBrook, was far too young when she gave birth and her body couldn't handle it, so only one kitten survived. Even though her mother and her father, StoneHeart, grieved for the kittens they had lost, they also focused all their love onto the only one who survived. That was where HalcyonKit got her unique name. Her parents wanted to give her something that other cats would remember easily, if by nothing else.

As the only kitten sometimes it was very lonely for the young she-cat, but with the help of two young apprentices, DawnPaw and StormPaw, she found her bearings, though they lay with becoming mature quicker. She was eager to become an apprentice just for this reason, but that didn't happen until four moons after her friends had become warriors.

HalcyonPaw
Though she had first seen it as a terrible thing that she become an apprentice after her friends had become warriors, it later wasn't so, for she was apprenticed under one of them. StormPaw, who was now called StormGaze, took her under his wing and trained her, all the while nursing a growing affection for her. HalcyonPaw, too, fell for him, but that was perhaps a mistake in StarClan's eyes. They did not wish for her to have the same problems her mother had at kitting at such a young age.

In a battle with a rival clan HalcyonPaw was led by her mentor and thrust right into the thicket of things. She fought with all her heart and soul, trying to impress StormGaze, but when the fight was over she found that by mistake a young apprentice from the opposite clan had gotten a little too fight-happy and had murdered StormGaze as he was battling the other apprentice's mentor.

That was perhaps the saddest day in HalcyonPaw's entire life.

HalcyonMoon
The day HalyconPaw became HalcyonMoon was a bittersweet day for the she-cat. For sure becoming a warrior was the highest honor she could have felt then, but in her heart she grieved that it was not StormGaze that was praising her for it instead of her new mentor, BerryVine. As she stood vigil that night she thought of her old friend, mentor, and crush, and while awake, felt as though she might have had a vision of him. Because by morning she felt a new vigor to protect her clan, and the ambitions to lead it.

When the old leader cast out his final life to the rapids of the river--a fitting end the whole clan had agreed--and the deputy, HalcyonMoon's own father, had taken his place now named StoneRiver, she was quickly seen as who should become the new deputy. She was young and fit, and had proven herself in battle and outside of it. There was no thought given to the fact she was the daughter of the clan leader. At least, none who viewed it negatively.

HalcyonRiver
Sadly when the clan was stolen from their land and thrust into the new Bio Dome, HalcyonMoon's father was driven insane with the change and was forced to be stripped of three of his remaining four lives and lead life anew in the elder's den. HalcyonMoon took his place as leader quickly after and she has held her place well, her heart and mind filled with the need to protect her family and friends.

RP Sample:
The night was quiet, the wind sweeping through the trees and against the brush of HalcyonRiver's ears. The tufts at the tips were the most disturbed, the gentle breeze tickling them and making them twitch. It was almost as if the air around her was trying to speak, to tell her of a warning of what was to happen to her clan. The young she-cat's mind was fraught with the many happenings as of late, and how her clan might survive these strange surroundings, but she was also confident in her own ability to lead them. They would be safe as long as she kept her cool head.

Sighing, the new leader drew her bi-colored gaze across the river of whose bank she was rested upon. Oh spirits of StarClan please give to my family and friends the strength of heart, body, and mind to make it through. She pleaded in her mind as her eyes panned upwards to the stars above. Could StarClan even see them here? Could they hear their cries for mercy and help? What had they ever done to deserve this?

Other:Nope.

Accepted.

Tho, I should have mentioned this, the cats recently have been captured and placed into the bio dome. But as long as you know that, its fine. ^^
