Hawthorneyes

Character art by Maple
== Description ==
A rather large tom with a muscular build. With long, glossy, silver fur that lays smoothely around his body like the metal armor of a knight, hiding all scars and minor injuries and making it seem as if minor attacks would not be able to pierce through his skin at all, though the wounds are simply not or very barely visible. The once piercing blue eyes having faded into a very pale, almost milky grey during his leadership.
== Personality ==
Hawthorneyes is a stubborn and brave cat, though the combination of both has been the cause of some of his greatest mistakes during his life time. Having decided on a fighting style that relays on blunt force rather then causing wounds with his claws he can come over as dull and ignorant while those who know him personally are aware of his hunger for a challenge and strategical skills when it comes to taking care of his clan and personal interest. Aside from him being what some may call a savage he can show great wisdom and endurance depending on the situation, making him a slightly unlikable yet highly reliable leader and cat.
== Early Childhood ==
Barely anything is known about Hawthorneyes early childhood apart from Hawthornkit often roaming around camp together with his two brothers until both eventually disappeared during Monsoonstar's days as deputy.
== Childhood ==
Having gotten his apprentice name Hawthornpaw the young tom was known to have a remarkable craving to prove himself worthy of his mentor's expectations. Though his mentor is unknown to this day his harsh words and disciplined training had formed the Childhood of Hawthornpaw greatly. During one of his first battles, the attack on Cavernclan patrol, Hawthornpaw had accidentally wounded a smaller apprentice with an unlucky scratch to the neck, as he himself was not aware of the possible damage he could deal with his claws back then, causing the young cat to bleed out on the battlefield before being able to receive the necessary help of a medicine cat. This would show to impact Hawthornpaw's fighting style and the way he would train his own apprentices later on.
After this incident Hawthornpaw stepped back from fighting. Having lost the trust in his mentor's abilities he spend his days wandering through the territory, thinking about ways to prevent such mistakes and studying different kind of attacks and battle strategies, all while staying as far away from any confrontations as possible, turning into a shadow of the promising apprentice he was before and only letting his gaze follow the life of what was happening around him. During the same time he met the apprentice Lightpaw, which he quickly started to develop for him unknown feelings for, letting her slowly tear down the walls he had build between him and the world and enlighting the spark of his almost forgotten courage once again.
== Young Adulthood ==
After finally receiving his warrior name, fitting his usual behavior of simply watching everything unfold from afar. Disaster struck when his best friend Lightpaw, by then known as Lightdapple started expecting his kits just a few moons after both of them received their warrior name. When Lightdapple died during birth and left Hawthorngaze with two kits he gave them away in panic to another queen and started to distance himself once again from others. During the following moons he focused on his personal ambitions, keen to make a name for himself without relying on anyone else.
