Mudsplash

is pale tortoiseshell tabby she-cat with soft fur.
==Description==
===Physical===
Long-bodied and tall, the she-cat is an impressive warrior at first glance. She is slightly leaner than the bulky clanmates that compose the MoonClan patrols, but this is likely because Mudsplash is a dedicated hunter. She is lean and streamline, capable of easily hunting down prey as she navigates the rocky, foggy terrain as if she knows it like the back of her paw. Mudsplash is deep-chested but has surprisingly lean shoulders, despite being capable of powerful leaps and strangling large prey as if it's nothing. 
No doubt, Mudsplash has a stunning coat pattern. Her tortoiseshell patterns are muted, although not quite dilute- she is covered in both orange and brown patches. Even her black-based tabby stripes appear to be lighter than normal. All in all, she is a tortoiseshell that is difficult to identify as a tortoiseshell: that is, her orange patches don't stand out much from her russet-browns. Mudsplash has a dense yet short coat that is cloud-like to the touch, although...she isn't the greatest groomer. Being that she is a tomboy, the feline doesn't have much time to sit around and make herself look pretty. She enjoys wearing dust and having messy fur.
===Character===
Mudsplash is a rough-and-tough gal with a tomboy personality. She doesn't seem to carry that "mysterious" vibe that follows most cats of MoonClan, as she's much to straight-forward. However, like most of her clanmates, her comments can be painfully sarcastic. Despite being an older and therefore respectable warrior of the clan, this cut-and-dry feline seems to be plenty youthful and perhaps not always the most responsible. She can be very rash in her decisions, acting on a whim and following along whatever her gut tells her.
Fortunately, the molly is still plenty friendly, even if her boldness is off-putting at first. In the end, she's willing to lend a paw and be a shoulder to lean on for whoever might need it. Mudsplash is impressively hardworking and is a dedicated warrior to her clan.
==History==
===Background===
Mudkit never had much of a family. Her pregnant rogue mother had shown up in MoonClan on day demanding that Moonstar allow her to join. The tom was hesitant before he angrily told the queen to leave, yet the she-cat was persistent. She continued to argue that she should get to stay, and before long, the warriors began to pity her. Moonstar didn't want to completely lose the loyalty of his warriors, so he agreed to let the queen stay. 
The she-cat wasn't a perfect mother. She was young and it was her first litter, and the litter ended up being quite large: six kittens in total, and far too much for her to handle. The other queens did what they could to pitch in, but it was difficult with the nursery being relatively full at the time. Unfortunately, sickness hit and it killed almost all the kittens in the litter, since the queen struggled to care well for them. Mudkit was the only one the medicine cat managed to spare at the time. 
Mudkit seemed to bounce around the nursery and essentially had multiple mothers, although her own biological mother wasn't quite one of them. The rogue stepped away from motherhood and eventually left MoonClan altogether. But with the nursery being packed, Mudkit had to fight for her attention. She learned to be tough, and learned to not tolerate any crap from the other kits.
The kit became a little more popular as an apprentice, where she grew bold and reckless. She was known for being painfully daring, taking up any task given by her fellow apprentices no matter how great the risks. Mudpaw also had a tendency to be somewhat of a bully, but seemed to grow out of the behavior before realizing that she didn't really enjoy hurting the feelings of others.
She became "Mudsplash", a warrior who was perhaps a pain in the rear from time to time. Being that her mentor thought highly of her hunting skills, Mudsplash didn't always like to let the respectable senior warriors run the show. However, as she grew older she became a little more patient with her elders. Still, she does dumb things, but she's become a better cat at heart.

=== Friends ===
Wolfstar:
:The two go way back to the times of the nursery. She amused herself by teasing him to be a "mommy's boy" (and shamelessly continues to do so), and she definitely got the snot kicked out of her by him as an apprentice. However, the duo found amusement in their little scuffles and petty arguments. Mudsplash likes to consider herself to be his extended family, frequently offering him unwanted advice and support, as well as dumb jokes to distract his troubled mind. She likes to believe that she understands him better than any cat. Quite honestly, she trusts him with her life, so much as that she was willing to admit that she once had buried feelings for his sister. This was a secret he was willing to keep quiet. She enjoys confiding in him.
Blackheart:

=== Love Interests ===
Blackheart:
:Admittedly, Mudsplash had secret, buried feelings for Wolfstar's sister. She was young, and Blackheart had interest in a tom at the same time, so it felt so wrong to feel that way for the she-cat. In the end, Mudsplash kept her attractions a secret, up until it became too overwhelming to hide. She was distraught over the queen's death, and it was then that she finally admitted to Wolfstar that she had secretly fallen for the tom's sister, despite Blackheart never fully recognizing or reciprocating those feelings. For the entire time that Blackheart was alive, she only ever saw the warrior as a friend. 
=== Other ===
Ravensong:
:What is there not to respect? Although Mudsplash does tend to think highly of the senior she-cat (given that her kits are Mudshine's closest of friends), she does have her tendency to disobey the older feline. That being said, Mudshine never has taken well to being bossed around, and Ravensong has never thought particularly highly of the high caliber warrior. The two don't speak much, mostly because their relationship is rather awkward and somewhat stiff, so to speak.
