SparrowClaw // Iceclan

Appearance

Simple Appearance: A pretty silver tabby with yellow eyes.


Paragraph Appearance: SparrowClaw is a large, long-haired she-cat with dark tabby markings banding down her front legs up to her neck. The Iceclanner is quite striking like her sister, who looks quite similar. She has a very faint brindling down her body, which is occasionally darkened but not as much as her front stripes. She has thick white fur on her legs and chest, along with her soft white belly. Her muzzle has a t shape of white, which stands out quite nicely against her silver base. Her tail is highlighted with darker strands of grey, almost tinted brown, and is very bushy and long. SparrowClaw has very long and sharp nails, and below her pelt a collection of muscles making her quite strong despite her soft look. Her eyes are a yellow with faint hints of green, and a nick of her ear is missing along with a few hidden scars by her shoulder, her back, and on her belly. Unusually, she can also swim quite well, due to her being partially of Tideclan descent.

Personality

Being quite the friendly feline, Sparrowclaw is very welcoming towards others and often doesn't avoid anycats, unless asked to or something bad had happen between them. She's very sweet but can become overly protective and worries about those she's close to or that she loves. If SparrowClaw is angered though... well, she didn't earn her name from doing nothing. She's also easily upsetted and depressed, but if taunted enough can go into raging fits.

History

-Mother: CloudSpark
-Father: Stagwhisker
-Brother: Whitespark
-Sister: Rainstar

As a kit Sparrowkit was defiantly a pawful: She loved to annoy her siblings, especially her sister Rainkit just to get her to whine, and constantly bug everyone in the den that would sit long enough for her to spot them. The little kit was very immature, and often acted like a brat constantly, only being good when her mother and 'father' were in the den and almost never was caught making fun of her sister. Her brother was fine, and didn't bother her too much, but Rainkit and Sparrowkit clashed slightly when they were younger.

When she reached the age of 6 moons, she was quite happy to get one of the senior warriors as her mentor, a cat by the name of Tigerstripe. The tom was very strict and almost always snapped at the she-cat when she acted up, which quickly got rid of her former whiney self. A bit jealous when her sister got Nettlestar as a mentor, the thought was quickly driven out of her head as she felt her own mentor was much better then a 'measly leader.' Then once again, she really didn't have time to ponder on it, she often went through hard training and drills to just get better. It was tiring, but would be worth it in the long run.

As her bond with her siblings got tighter, she often vented about the 'stupid drills' and ridiculous things her mentor made her do, causing her to feel better and even laugh about it afterwords. It was quite a relief to have somecats to lean on, and without that she felt she would have gone insane. When Rainpaw, Whitepaw, and Sparrowpaw became warriors, it was no surprise that Rainflight got much more cats chanting her name. She was a perfect warrior, a role model, and soon worked her way up the line to become a cat anyone would dream of being friends with. Really, SparrowClaw was just happy her mentor couldn't tell her to do stupid drills anymore, and that was good enough for her.

One day, she planned to meet up with her siblings after separating with her patrol, and they wandered down to the TideClan border to try and find water voles, but instead, they saw their mother's snowy white pelt. Whitespark bounded forward to say hello, and when Cloudspark turned around, fur fluffing in alarm, the three could see clearly behind her. They could see the TideClan warrior who had been nuzzling her.

Cloudspark looked at him, her blue eyes scared. The TideClan warrior lifted his chin and cocked his head, looking at the three. Rainflight looked terrified the whole time, and SparrowClaw realized with a feeling as if she got punched in the gut that this cat looked much more like her and her sister then anyone else in the clan, if almost exactly. All that Whitespark could do was look at Cloudspark and say, "Patchstone isn't our father, is he?"

The TideClan warrior introduced himself as Stagwhisker. He told them that he had been watching them from across the border, and was so proud of how his kits had become such fine warriors. Of course, they would be free to visit him-

Sparrowclaw bristled up and snarled, but it was her sister who first reacted, which was very unusual unless she was very upset. Rainflight lost control. She began to yell at Cloudspark, about how could she, about the code. When Stagwhisker tried to step in and defend Cloudspark, Rainflight whirled on him and raked her claws over his face, leaving a permanent scar over his muzzle. "Explain that to your clan," she had spat, before casting one more glare at Cloudspark and running away.

After that, Sparrowclaw stood there for a moment, mostly in shock, pushing out her... father's words with anger. It made her furious, and before her mother could add in the she-cat stormed back to camp and collapsed in her den.

When her sister became leader shortly after the tom killed Nettlestar, her hate had grown towards her mother and she pushed herself farther and farther away from them, instead helping her sister who seemed to be getting stressed over her role. Other then that though, she doesn't talk about her past much, and in public much rather keep an upbeat tone. Sparrowclaw wouldn't let anyone know her father killed the old leader, even at the risk of her life.
