❝ No matter what Heatherdawn... I love you. So so much. I always will. ❞
— Lilypaw's internal monolouge during Heatherdawn's funeral sendoff downriver
Lilydawn is a soft, cream-furred she-cat with flame point markings. She resides in RiverClan as a young warrior, along with her siblings. She is known to be gentle and doting to those she loves, but on the other hand is easily manipulated, and has a habit of coming back to cats who mistreat her, because she's always living in the past.
==Appearance==
Description: American Shorthair(Nectarstar) X Norwegian Forest Cat(Smokestorm)
Description: Lilydawn is a petite, blue-eyed shecat with short cream fur, unlike most in her generally long-furred clan. Her silky coat fluffs around her shoulders and elbows, but is smooth everywhere else. The flame points on her face fan out from a pale blaze that covers the top part of her muzzle, and end on her forehead and cheeks. They also form a gradient on her paws and tail, that are cut off by the same pale white as her blaze. Her ears are the same pale ginger as her markings.

:    = Tongue (#eb9999)
:    = Pawpads (#D98486)
Voice: Young and bright, like a bell.
Scent: Faintly sweet, with undertones of lavender, rain and RiverClan's trademark fish stench.
