== Appearance and Personality ==
Appearance
Mudflame is a sleek dark brown tabby tom with short, thick fur. His chest, stomach, muzzle, and paws are a slightly lighter shade than the rest of his body, and some of his stripes are dark enough to look almost black. His eyes are dark yellow. There is also a long scar winding across his shoulder blades.
==== Personality ====
Mudflame is very bold and audacious. He is quite clever, and he knows it. He's very prideful and basks in attention. He is also a bit of a flirt, although it is all in good fun. He is generally hotheaded and impulsive, and is often regarded as loud or obnoxious, but when it comes down to it, he is actually a very loyal and dependable cat.
== Backstory ==
==== Kithood ====
There’s more information on his parents on Midgefur’s page. But basically, Mudkit was born in HorizonClan, and since he was bigger and stronger than his brother, he was favored by Larkdapple (his mother). Mudkit thought that was stupid, though. Occasionally, when Larkdapple and Shrewface (his dad) argued, he would get involved and try to take his father’s side. This really upset his mother, however, and one day she took him out into the woods and inflicted upon him the wound that left the scar along his shoulders, warning him to never cross her again. Upon returning to camp, she only claimed that he’d scratched himself on a branch. He never told anyone the truth except for Midgekit (his bro) and Shrewface. Mudkit was very angry and unhappy during his youth, and wanted nothing more than to prove himself worthy of becoming a HorizonClan warrior.
==== Apprenticeship ====
Mudpaw became apprentice at 6 moons like anyone else. Larkdapple and Shrewface’s disagreements got worse, and Larkdapple was determined to take Mudpaw with her and leave HorizonClan. She had begun neglecting to call him by his Clan name, only referring to him as “Mud”. Shrewface eventually talked her into leaving by herself. After that fiasco was over, Mudpaw was able to really live his life. He got to know his denmates more, too. He became a bit distanced from Midgepaw, but that was alright. He was softening up a bit, at least.
==== Warrior Life ====
Mudflame became a warrior after passing his assessment, and quickly started developing feelings for Flamethorn. He eventually lost them once she became mates with Pineclaw, though. Mudflame didn’t like Pineclaw, and he thought it was cool when he got exiled. Also, Shrewface died. That was sad.
Mudflame pretty much just ran around doing warrior things for a while. He tried to beat up a loner named Laurel at some point after Midgefur inadvertently asked him to. Laurel left before he could, though. He was a little disappointed by that. Midgefur wasn’t.
He decided Mistrunner was attractive at some point, so now he tries and fails to make moves on her whenever possible. They went hunting once. He tried to encourage her to stop overworking herself. They also migrated the fresh-kill pile because it was getting rained on and that wasn't very nice.
He was the mentor of Appleshine, and although he hated training her because she was super annoying, they’re on relatively good terms now. Before too long, he got another apprentice, Hootpaw. He trained Hootpaw and all was well. Hootpaw became Hootheart. Cool.
Mudflame also thought it was really stupid that all the borders got shut down in spite of the plague. He’s... intelligent, but still sort of dumb, if you know what we mean.
He's cool.

==== Trivia ====
* He received the prefix "mud" because his fur was brown and thick, even at birth. Also, Larkdapple thought it was a nice, ugly name for a nice, ugly kit. The suffix "flame" was selected to represent his burning passion and dedication to become stronger and all that good stuff.
*This dude ain’t Elend, but he’ll do. See Mistrunner’s page for clarification.
*Starlingstar6 has permission to edit my pages because I'm stupid and don't have a lot of access to my computer. I do, however, have Starlingstar6's contact information, so I can just ask her to make the edits. Stonks.
*I, Starlingstar6, would like to second this. Also, thanks to the caption on that first image, I will now never refer to Mudflame as anything except “Muddyman”. He is Muddyman. This is Muddyman.
