Goldpaw

"YOU SHOULD'VE GONE WITH US! I TRIED TO TELL YOU! MOM AND DAD HATE US!" - Goldpaw to Ashpaw when they're reunited at a gathering
== Overview ==
Goldpaw is a white tom with black and ginger patches and golden-yellow eyes.
He is an apprentice of the She-cat Rights Rebellion. 
== Personality ==
Goldpaw is quiet and keeps most emotions internal, but if he's angry or sad, he can easily have a mental breakdown. 
He's quite sensitive, always thinking he's in danger no matter the situation. Goldpaw is very impulsive as well, he always acts too fast to even think about what he's doing, which often leads to him regretting his choices later...most choices, that is. 
Goldpaw is very protective of the cats he loves, and will go to any extent to protect them. Although he's very clingy and gets attached to cats easily, he can easily abandon them if he has to, seeing as how he and Petalpaw left Ashpaw without having to think twice.
== Detailed description ==
Goldpaw has short, mostly white fur, with black ears, a black splotch on his head, shoulders, tail, and a black left hind leg. He has ginger back toes and a ginger tail tip. 
Goldpaw has golden-yellow eyes (hence his name) and a lanky frame.
== History ==
Goldkit was born on a leaf-fall night to Robin and Firestar, alongside his sisters, Petalkit and Ashkit. 
At a moon old, Goldkit started being abused by his parents. He liked to just observe his sisters, he never play-fought with them. Firestar soon noticed this, and gave Goldkit a long lecture about sexism and gender stereotypes, like how toms are supposed to like fighting more than she-cats. 
Goldkit immediately grew a strong hatred for his father. Why couldn't he just act how he wanted? He didn't like fighting! Why couldn't he just watch without being called a "she-cat in a tom's body"?! 
Firestar said Goldkit was like Lavenderspark, who was a tom who ended up leaving Fireclan due to how horrible it was. Goldkit didn't know what to think of that, but oddly enough, he was sort of proud of himself. He wanted to leave Fireclan, just like Lavenderspark. Robin told Goldkit about the other four clans, Birdclan, Lichenclan, Finclan, and Emberclan, and he soon became interested in learning about them.
Both of his parents started forcing him to learn how to fight while he was just a little kit, tossing him around and throwing bugs at him out of nowhere. Goldkit started to hate both of them. The stress was too much to handle! 
Later, Robin randomly came in one day with a newborn kit named Inkkit, saying she was the new adopted sister of Goldkit and his sisters. Goldkit never really spent any time with Inkkit, he preferred to be by himself, but Ashkit sure didn't like her.
The next day, Inkkit mysteriously disappeared while Goldkit was asleep. He wasn't affected by it, no one even seemed to notice. He was doing fine, starting to learn how to defend himself more easily.
Until a few hours later.
All hell broke loose in Fireclan's camp. Apparently, Minnowpaw had created an entire rebellion against Fireclan and they were now fighting with everything they had. 
While Goldkit and his sisters were watching from the safety of their den, and their parents were out fighting, Chirppaw came in. Petalkit and Ashkit were both terrified of him, but Goldkit didn't know how to feel. Chirppaw told them about the awful rules in Fireclan, how she-cats were forced to have kits and toms could do whatever they wanted to she-cats, even without consent! Then, he told them about the She-cat Rights Rebellion, which was what Minnowpaw had made.
Goldkit and Petalkit were both horrified of Fireclan's rules, and were interested in the rebellion, but Ashkit didn't believe Chirppaw. She tried to convince her siblings not to leave her, but failed. Chirppaw took Goldkit and Petalkit and escaped Fireclan camp, dropping them off at the borders, where they found Inkkit and another apprentice in the rebellion, Moonpaw. 
After a long fight that almost lasted an entire day, the rest of the rebellion came to the Fireclan borders, all heavily injured and beaten, but most of them were still alive. They decided that they needed to move away from Fireclan territory for safety. The journey took an entire week, but they finally settled in the forest between Birdclan and Lichenclan.

== Relationships ==
=== Family ===
Robin (Mother) - Despite not having seen her since he was a kit and knowing she's left Fireclan, Goldpaw still doesn't like his mother (understandably) and is still cautious of her. He's trying to enjoy the estrangement from Robin but he's still paranoid that she wants to hunt him down.
Firestar (Father) - About the same as Robin, Goldpaw just hates his father more.
Petalpaw (Sister) - The one and only cat Goldpaw TRULY trusts. He always follows Petalpaw around and sticks to her side to feel just a little safe in his own home. They've stuck together since leaving Fireclan as kits.
Ashpaw (Sister) - He doesn't remember a lot about what happened that night, but he knows she's after him. Goldpaw's either slowly forgetting about Ashpaw or he's always staring into the abyss with an expression of pure horror for a reason.
