WATERLEAF: BROOKCLAN

[daughter]

<----Waterleaf
she-cat, nineteen moons

RANK: Medicine cat
ALLIANCE: BrookClan
APPEARANCE: Waterleaf is a gray tabby she-cat with silvery gray eyes.

PERSONALITY: Waterleaf is loyal to her Clan with everything she has. She doesn't always think of the warrior code, though this doesn't mean that she disobeys it. She may just do something that slips from her mind, and she never does anything that's too seriously terrible. Though she doesn't agree with it, she obeys it. She finds use in it and why someone would need it. Even if there is a warrior code, though, she is loyal to BrookClan.

Waterleaf is mostly kind and gentle, but if she loses her temper she would tear everything apart. She was born with sharpness, but it was overlapped by her love and loyalty for her Clan. What it created? A type of character that you never know what to expect from.

Waterleaf is always near water. Whether she's depressed, angry, or full of joy, she's by water. She says it's a place where she's never alone, because her reflection is right beside her. Even though her name is Waterleaf, it was never connected to her love of water. It was unknown until she was already an apprentice. Whatever happens, though, Waterleaf and the water get through it together.

REASON FOR NAME: Waterleaf's father thought that when they were naming her, her fur was gray, the color of water, and he gave it to her to hope that her life would run as smooth as water. When she was given her adult name, Waterleaf, her mentor knew she had gone through some hard things, and that leaves sometimes got in water. That was why she was called Waterleaf.

FAMILY:
Mother -- Grassrustle
Father -- Strikeclaw
Brother -- Lighthit

HISTORY: Grassrustle and Strikeclaw, two ordinary BrookeClanners, fell in love and had kits. They had two kits, a gray she-kit, who got her father's looks, and a little white tom with blue eyes that got his mother's looks. The she-kit was named Waterkit, and the tom was named Lightkit. Just as Grassrustle, Lightkit was half deaf. Lightkit was monstrously jealous, and attacked Waterkit. Waterkit, being the stronger littermate, beat him in the wrestle. Later, Lightkit apologized, and they became best friends.

Waterkit later faced a terrible challenge. What path would she go? Everyone told her that she would shape up to become one of the greatest BrookClan warriors, but she didn't feel that was where she should go. Finally, Waterkit decided she would choose the way of a medicine cat, which greatly disappointed her parents and her brother. When Waterpaw proved that her heart truly belonged with herbs, she was finally accepted. She became an impressive medicine cat apprentice.

Waterpaw finally became Waterleaf. Her mentor said that, even though her life was supposed to run smooth as water, that there are some leaves in water. She found her true loyalty to BrookClan through every cat she healed. She realized that if she had chosen the way of a warrior, she would have never found her true loyalty. When her mentor died, Waterleaf took the full place as medicine cat. She had found her true self -- and she was ready.

RP EXAMPLE:

Waterleaf looked around. Trees were wet with dew from the previous rain. She blinked her eyes that were clouded with fog. Waterleaf enjoyed the wet that surrounded her. She looked down at the bubbling brook that splashed at her paws. My forever friend.. she thought as she gazed at the reflection she saw. The water was always with her, whether it was rain pouring and soaking her fur, the water she drank at a river, or just the water from the bubbling brook that was right with her. She was always with it, no matter what. It didn't matter what happened to her, because it was always her friend.

She knew that if anyone else knew how much she loved it, they would think she was going insane. They wouldn't accept her. Waterleaf wondered and wondered. After a while, they accepted her as a medicine cat. But would this be bigger? Would they throw her out on first notice? Would they think she was going crazy? Or would it be absolutely normal? After all, she was a BrookeClan cat. She didn't know if BrookeClanners loved water or didn't mind it. Hopefully, it was the first option.

Waterleaf waded into the brook, water splashing around her legs. As she walked in deeper, the water went up to her flanks. She closed her eyes and let the crisp, cool air and refreshing water surround her as she lost all of her worries. Waterleaf let the water soak her fur to the skin. It didn't make her uncomfortable. She was in no world but her own.

Waterleaf lay down in the water. It covered everything but her head. She knew that the water would always be there for her, even if no one else ever was. It didn't matter if they thought her love for water was crazy. It was just who she was. If they didn't accept it, so what? It didn't matter. As long as someone was always there. And someone was. It was what she was surrounded by right now: water.
