Ashwing
Name:: Ashwing
Clan: Shadowclan
Age: 19 moons
Gender: she-cat.
Rank: Medicine Cat
Appearance:
Pelt
Ashwing's pelt is a unique dark gray, able to hide among the shadows of most things she encountered. The length of this fur is short, but somewhat spiked every morning, usually because of how easily her fur gets tussled up from just walking in a windy day. Kits usually love to play in it once it appears tussled and she usually doesn't clean her fur until sunhigh. It seems to shine silver in the sunlight.
Eyes
Her eyes are a brilliant emerald green, and it seems to shine in the sunlight or moonlight. Her lids slightly go over some of her eyes, except when she is looking for plants, and then her eyes seem to be wide open, looking everywhere for things to help her clan.Scars
Due to an event in her apprenticehood that threatened the lives of both her and her now late mentor, Ashwing has a series of fading scars over her front legs and back, though her back ones are only really visible because of less fur there due to the healed sound. The one on her front legs are dug somewhat into the skin, and the sounds are visible because they have no fur over them; only pink, healed tissue.Personality:
Caring
Ashwing is a cat who likes to look out for others, which was what somewhat inspired her late mentor to pick her for his apprentice. She cares about every cat's well being, making sure that she does the best she could for each and every life that enters her den.
Excitable
Indeed, Ashwing takes many things to high levels, and is known to jump around at the first mention of her plants growing back and her being able to heal cats more easily. She is also known to rush to the clan leader whenever a sign from Starclan comes, eager to tell anyone she knows about it.
Friendly
Ashwing is very chatty with those who talk to her, and she can find some way to make the topic about herbs or tthings she finds cool. Sometimes her natural energy and her habit to talk made her someone who likes to talk to others.
Shy
Contrary to what most would believe, Ashwing does not like to walk up to someone to talk to them. She likes to sit in the corner of her den and chat with those who had approached her and got her talking.
Anxiety
Ashwing sure is a cat to worry. Being in charge of the medicine and in the well being of the clan after her mentor fell, the dark grey cat constantly worried about it she has enough stock to last for the clan, it she made a good impression on others, and sometimes she thinks about what it's like beyond Starclan and she freaks out even more.
History:
Kithood
Ashwing was born to Eagleblaze and Lakefur, a brown-colored Tom with green eyes and a blue-grey she-cat with blue eyes, with each having slight grey to their muzzles due to age. Ashkit was born with another cat named Cinderkit, who is now Cinderflight. The two played games with moss balls together, though Ashwing was never too willing to treat the moss ball like something to kill or hunt.
It was after a few moons of being fed toads, and Ashkit snuck into the medicine cat's den to check on her sister, who had fallen sick. Ashkit tried to help the elder cat by putting some herbs nearby, but the medicine cat found out she was in there and shooed her out, trying to reassure the kit that her sister just had a small cough.
Ashkit tried to reassure the younger kits that Cinderkit was okay, in turn. Even through Ashkit's fretting, She did her best, and when Cinderkit returned to the nursery, Ashkit started to watch the medicine cat sort through herbs and separate them based on what they were used for. She played less with the other kits, but worried about them getting too close to the edge of camp due to his she hears around camp.
All of this was watched by the previous medicine cat.
Apprentice
At the ripe age of six moons, both Cinderkit and Ashkit stood before the stones, waiting to be named warrior apprentices together, when the leader called out for the medicine cat before anything was called for the two.
Ashkit watched as the medicine cat and the leader involved her in the medicine cat apprentice ceremony instead of a warrior apprentice one, but she feels relieved. After Ashkit and Cinderkit became Ashpaw and Cinderpaw, the two separated to their mentors, and thus started Ashpaw's training.
It went smoothly for six moons, and Ashpaw became a skilled user of of medicines and how to treat others bones, sicknesses, and injuries to heal smoothly. However, near the gathering time, a band of rogues rushed through, tried to take some kits, and steal out of the medicine cat den in the time of night. Not only was this a mistake on their part, due to Shadowclan's nature as nightdwellers, but Ashpaw alerted the camp and her mentor while jumping on one of the rogues with one of the kits, allowing that kit to run off. Ashpaw had almost no battle training, and the reason she survived with just her front legs and back clawed was because her sister, back from her warrior assessment, spotted the rogues with wounds and kits scared nearby, and basically had every cat return to camp at the same time in order to fight the rogues off.
Cinderpaw gained her name of Cinderflight, and the two sisters had something to brag about at the gathering.
At the quartermoon, Ashpaw became Ashwing because of her abilities of being able to glide along in the night softly to get herbs, and how her words were often calming.
Medicine Cat
As the newly named Ashwing took to medicine cat duties alongside her mentor, most cat's noticed how the medicine cat was growing in age, and seemed to be on his last legs of energy. Ashwing took more control of healing cat's as they came to the den for injuries and coughs. There has been deaths under Ashwing's care, but those were when they were too far gone, or Ashwing did her best.
When her mentor died of old age, She was one of those who sat by his body and waited for the night to pass. After that, She became the actual medicine cat of the clans, and has been for a few moons. She conversed with her previous mentor in Starclan sometimes.
