Fernsway

Appearance
Fernsway is a beautiful, elegant, and well-muscled she-cat with thick, soft fur, which is especially curly on her tail and head. A cloak of curly, soft and surprisingly well-kept hair drapes over the right side of her face (her right, your left). She's a fawn colored tortoiseshell tabby, with a cream underbelly, legs from the shins down, neck, and face. Her coat pattern is symmetrical, and her eyes are a soft but subtly sharp green.

Personality
Fernsway is a stoic, aggressive, but clever and calculating she-cat with a tendency to not cope with anything very well, especially change. She's overly protective of her friends, but somehow they don't know it though. She despises young cats, due to their lack of empathy, and their tendency to be annoying, two personality traits she hates the most.

Kithood
Fernsway was born in a cold winter, being the only surviving kit of her litter. She was born to a haughty and serious couple, a queen named Fawnstripe and a warrior named Mottledgorse. They didn't bother to consider her feelings as she grew up and only taught her to act better than others, resulting in her despising her parents and feeling like she needed to rebel against them to get them to listen to her. This did not go well and resulted in her parents getting mad at her and occasionally hitting her sometimes, which only strengthened her anger and amplified her aggressive tendencies.

Apprenticeship
Fernpaw was made an apprentice to a warrior named Poolwhisker, who she thought was a soft, meek excuse of a warrior. She followed his training nonetheless, because she wanted to be a warrior, but wasn't happy about it. Gradually though, he wore away at her cold personality and taught her about empathy and kindness, and it only made her hate her parents even more. She hated to admit it, but sometimes it even made her feel guilty for being their child. Poor gal. Along the way of her journey to become a warrior, she befriended a younger cat who was a polar opposite to her. Her name was Poppypaw, and she was a bubbly, light-hearted and goofy apprentice who loved training and cute things and such. Fernpaw found her revolting at first, but was gradually drawn to her freedom and brightness. They became close friends pretty quickly.

One day though, while speaking to her, something seemed off. As she took a closer look at her friend, Poppypaw seemed as if she as not getting enough sleep and was pretty tired. It took a few minutes to convince herself to confront Poppypaw about it, and the ginger apprentice hesitantly revealed she had been getting bullied harshly by a group of apprentices in Fallclan, and they had only just resorted to getting physical with her a few days ago.

Fernpaw was livid. At the next gathering, she proceeded to confront them and immediately start a fight. At one point in the fight, Fernpaw was held down and forced to watch them drag Poppypaw into the fight and beat her up pretty badly. She was helpless. Cutting the Gathering short, both apprentices were rushed to the medicine den. Fernpaw was fine, but unfortunately the moderately smaller and more fragile Poppypaw was in critical condition, resulting in her inevitable death.

Fernpaw wasn't sad. She wasn't going to bawl her eyeballs out or grieve. She was angry at herself for messing all this up. She could've done so much better for her best friend, but she didn't. And now, she was gone.

Her mental health started to decline slowly as she got older, and it didn't get much better for her until she became a warrior.

Warrior Life
Fernpaw got the warrior name Fernsway for her elegant appearance. Fernsway, however, did not give a single mouse tail what she was named at the moment.

When she was 16, she found out a group of apprentices which were brothers had moved from Orchidclan to Horizonclan. Their names were Smallpaw, Smokepaw, and Firepaw. Firepaw, however, stood out to her.

Small, fluffy ginger apprentice with a bubbly, goofy and good-hearted personality. This apprentice was a spitting image of her deceased best friend.

She wanted to make friends with him. She really did, but she couldn't bring herself to do it. She didn't want to mess it up as badly as she messed up with Poppypaw, so she didn't bother to speak to him.

When she was 18, though, Firepaw, now Firecloud instead came to her in search of friends. He told her that he thought she was "pretty cool" and wanted to get to know her better. Reluctantly, she accepted, and was taken into Firecloud's little group, where she also met his other close friend, Runningriver. He was an antisocial warrior she had heard of a few times when his sister had died, but she had never bothered to speak with him.

They became a little clique of some sort and got pretty close with each other, hanging out every day and sharing tongues and prey.

When Fernsway was 19, she found that a FallClan warrior had come to visit. The word FallClan was already a red flag for her, but when she realized it was one of the bully's lackies, that had led to Poppypaw's demise, she went ballistic and immediately attacked him. A few warriors had to pull her off of the warrior she had clawed to ribbons, and they forced her to go out for a walk to cool down.

It helped somewhat, but on her way back to camp, she caught OasisClan scent in her nostrils. Tracking the scent with growing anger, she found it was a warrior named Thistlespring who was with Firecloud. Seeing red at this point, Fernsway also attacked her, resulting in Mistrunner, the Horizonclan messenger, having to pull her away. In any means to get away from Mistrunner, she bit her paw and then ran out of camp.

She was gone for a few days, to the Clan's worry, but she re-appeared out of nowhere pretty beat up. She claimed, that as much as she hated the other Clans, she was trying to kill a fox from their territory, but no cat knows what actually happened.

She was taken to the medicine den, where she proceeded to question her sexuality due to the kindness and beauty of the young medicine cat Thundersight, and then she "chatted" with Falconfeather a bit before being left alone to heal.

She hasn't really done anything in the past few days of healing, but no cat really expects her to.
