Cornpaw

Cornpaw Is a short-haired golden tabby with emerald-green eyes. 
Cornpaw is a kit living in FieldClan under Skystar's leadership. He was abandoned by his mother, Luna (a loner living near FieldClan's off-territory border) and rescued by Skystar's patrol, which consisted of herself, Siltpaw and Martensong, the FieldClan deputy. 
Cornpaw was adopted by Goldenskip, one of FieldClan's two nursing queens, and will be raised by her alongside his adoptive siblings Blazekit and Dewkit. Martensong has grown quite attached to Cornkit and requested to help Goldenskip raise him as an adoptive father. Goldenskip immediately agreed, welcoming the help.
== Personality ==
Rebellious and adventurous, Cornpaw has a bubbly personality even at such a young age. "What if more strangers arrive, like the one that was yelling awhile ago? We didn't think they'd show up but they did and now they're here. What if a bird swoops in and nabs us up?" Cornpaw often seems like he wants to have an answer for every question that would ever be asked, and the two most knowledgeable cats he knew were the best ones to learn from. His mind usually fires off in a million different directions a minute, flitting from one idea to the next without any real direction. He has a near-complete lack of impulse control or awareness in social situations.

== History ==
Luna, Cornkit's mother, gave birth to a litter of four kits though she'd not been expecting so many. Her mate, Rascal, had ran off as their hunger grew, finding it harder and harder to find adequate prey in the height of "winter" as the Twolegs called it. 
As the food ran out, so too did Luna's milk and she found herself unable to properly feed her kits. One by one, the kits died from starvation, and she carried them to the fields where burying them would be easier than the rocky soil of her home.
While going about the procedure to bury the kits, Luna caught wind of strange, terrifying scents and fled. Unbeknownst to her, Cornkit was alive; though only barely. Half-buried under his dead littermates, Cornkit mewed and mewed, crying for his mother to come back. The wails were incessant and pitiful enough to break the heart of even the crabbiest elder.
He was rescued by Skystar's patrol, guided to the area by a strange but powerful gut instinct - in reality it was the guiding presence of Robinsong in the Wildwalker Realm. Goldenskip of FieldClan took him in and nursed him alongside her own kits, Blazekit and Dewkit. Martensong, the FieldClan deputy, took a liking to Cornkit and eventually grew to be a father figure for him, raising the young kit alongside Goldenskip despite them not being mates. 
Cornkit views Goldenskip as a second mother, Martensong as a father, and Dewkit and Blazekit as his actual siblings. He greatly misses the version of Luna he's created in his own head despite never having "met" her, and holds her memory deep in his heart with a desire to see her again. 
Due to Skystar's sickness and growing incompetence, Cornkit's apprentice ceremony was delayed by a few moons. This causes him to be bitter and irreverent toward Clan traditions going forward. While at first being upset about it, he comes to realize these traditions are mostly meaningless as they can simply be disregarded on a whim if the Clan Leader feels like it - and face no punishment or consequence for doing so.
