Marshwalker

=== Description ===
Marshwalker is a huge muddy brown cat with mossy, muddy fur and a heavy pelt hiding silver eyes.
Marshwalker is among the oldest warriors in Mireclan and is well-respected for his sheer intimidation. It is frighteningly large and muscular, and adept in combat despite its slowness and age. Marshwalker is a cat of few words, stern and stoic, though he finds great amusement in using his bulk to stealth through the Mireclan willows and frighten other cats. It has a long history of mentoring young cats, even the most rambunctious of apprentices, and turning them into adept young warriors. 
=== History ===
As an apprentice, Marshwalker's brother, Swamppaw, was dying of severe redcough following a lifetime of sickness. On his deathbed, Rainstar granted him the honour of a warrior name, naming him Swampwalker so that he may walk into Starclan as a full warrior despite his plights.
As young warriors, Marshwalker and Seacurse were always very close, being of a similar age. They actively sought trouble, getting into misadventures whenever possible. Their relationship endured the test of time, and the two senior warriors are still good friends this many moons later. 
Marshwalker mentored Swiftpaw, who was a rebellious apprentice who certainly tested its patience and reputation for "taming" such cats. She may have been headstrong, but she was capable, and Marshwalker knew the best ways to extract her skills. When he caught her fraternising with Wolf, an outsider cat, he assumed that she was under threat and lashed out at him, injuring him badly with the force of his strike. Swiftpaw bit down on Marshwalker's tail, forcing it to release her secret lover and allowing Wolf to escape. Marshwalker dragged Swiftpaw back to camp and exposed her affair, leading to her warrior ceremony being held back by two moons.
Currently, Marshwalker is close to Nightcaller, becoming a sort of psuedo-father figure to hymn as hymn settles into clan life.
