### Cause of Death

n/a

A h I have to say, awesome character-- Ok ok so I think that he is named Bouldercrumble because he has a very strong personality. He is determined, he is stubborn, and he will stick with what he decides until the end. He is strong, like a rock- Boulders are hard to stop, and the only way to stop them is to wait until they slow down. He is impenetrable, his sarcasm, wry humor, and way of playing victim covering for him if someone says something he is uncomfortable/offended by. But because of his past, he is crumbled. He has been hardened by death and abandonment, which has directly impacted him by making him so tough. He may have a few cracks, but even if a boulder is starting to crumble, it can still hurt you. He got some cracks because of his past, and slowly, even if in a small way, he is crumbling, time eroding away at him. This also fits his trait of lashing out if someone is really attacking/getting on his nerves him; A shard fell out of his knit-together perception.

- @--TheDreamer-- rper of Ashripple upon reading his bio

## Appearance

pale silver short furred with dark gray rosettes. His fur is slightly darker silver along his back and the back of his head and his shoulders and top of his tail, he has downward striped on the back of his head rather than rosettes and also stripes up his face, some of which form little triangles, along his legs, they are more splotchy stripes than actual rosettes. Around his eyes, there is a tiny bit of white. His eyes are a bronze-ish brownish amber and quite round. He has a cobby build meaning he’s pretty short and compact with broad shoulders, a round head, fairly short legs, and has a stocky build. He is not fat though and is actually fairly muscular, his ears are slightly shorter than average and far apart, but they are pretty wide at the base to make up for that. His face-other than those stripes at the top and a plain silver stripe up his nose and a few along the side-has a white mask. It doesn’t cover his entire face but it does cover most of it, as well as the topmost part of the front of his neck. When I say short-furred, I mean like the length of an American short hair, not crazy short. It's short and dense His whiskers start out darker but get lighter. shorter than the average tail. Seeing as he's a cat living in the wild, he's bound to have scars, but nothing major, and his pelt is quite beautiful. He's fairly good looking, but certainly not the most handsome cat in ThunderClan, plus he tends to scowl, or seem to be scowling when he is really just thinking, but he has a nice smile when it's his real smile.

## Personality

(kind of a mess but it will be edited later)

☀sarcastic, snappy, judgemental, slow to admit guilt and when he does he usually tries to twist the conversation around and act like he’s the victim Logical, fairly proactive, and a bit bossy, decisive, determined, persuasive, playful if he likes you-whether romantically or otherwise, stubborn. He actually likes to think of the world in a poetic romantic way, but only expresses this with cats he truly trusts. He absolutely hates the feeling of betrayal and dislikes feeling like he has betrayed someone not exactly playful, but like humorous, though he has an odd sense of humor and it's mostly dark humor, he sometimes has flashes of hyperness and he likes to solve problems also he's a bit insecure but he hides that by being grumpy, judging other cats and well some of the other stuff you saw in his personality  he's kind of blunt-usually more in a negative way   sure would cunning like in a smart clever, not dastardly way work? and let's have him be patient and not snappy but still blunt though he will snap if you get on his nerves how about he has good morals too, and he's fairly kind, though not really cheerful, and he's helpful and good at pushing cats to be their best self? and he's not super grumpy but just a bit? and he stands up for what he believes to be just, he just...doesn't like to admit when he's been causing injustice he is a good judge of character Like good at reading people he has a wry sense of humor, that's probably neutral and I mean he's already sarcastic so but he's not quick to assume things he tries not to let personal opinions cloud his judgement, unless he has a valid reason, or thinks he does he's gonna be pretty brave for one he likes trying to solve problems and not just whining about them and he likes when other cats do this too and he learns from past mistakes

## Skills and weakness (all physical because the other stuff is in personality)

-Because of his fairly short legs, he is not very fast, nor is he good at leaping or climbing trees

+has good stamina

+good eyesight

-not so great hearing-it's not like it's bad, just most cats have better hearing.

+fairly strong

-definitely not nimble, possibly a bit clumsy.

## Life

#### Kithood (non-canon)

Boulderkit and his sister Egretkit often collected pretty objects together, as Egretkit was too weak to do most kit activities such as wrestling. Boulderkit always defended his sister from bullies but in spite of this, he was very interested in becoming a medicine cat. But when he was about five moons old, Egretkit died. His mother was unable to bear the death of her daughter, and she left the clans. Boulderkit cried, and tried to chase after her, but he couldn't. She and other members of ThunderClan wouldn't let him. For his last moon in the nursery, other queens looked after him somewhat, but he slept in his own nest. After his mother left, his father began to resent him, blaming him. Boulderkit had someone else to blame. He blamed the medicine cats. He would never be like them.

#### Warrior ship: (not written in the exact order of rps, but written in an order that makes sense, and not super accurate)

47 moons: RP with Willowwhirl of ThunderClan (this rp chain kind of died without ending, so I added an ending that I thought made sense)):

A stocky silver tom with dark grey rosettes sharpened his claws on a tree. He seemed to be deep in thought. His brow was furrowed and he frowned slightly. Willowwhirl was chasing a mouse and saw the tom and started to creep closer to him, her brown pelt blended in with the dirt perfectly but the white gave it away. *I'm one of the best hunters out of Thunderclan* she thought *he'll never see me* until she realized her white fur.  Bouldercrumble stretched and blinked evenly at her with round bronze eyes, biting back a smirk. Was she seriously trying to hide from him? Pfft. He knew apprentices who could hide better.  She rolled her eyes and scoffed sitting up and looked at him straight into his eyes "Okay look, I'm used to doing this in leaf-bare cause my back blends in with the snow... what are you doing on *my* territory?" she mewed quickly.  He rose an eyebrow. "Should I be offended?"  "I don't know, maybe? But you STILL didn't answer my question; why are you here and get lost" "I've lived in this clan for 47 moons Willowwhirl." She blinked a few times and could recognize him "Uhhh oops!" she mewed blushing embarrassed she didn't recognize him "I'm so sorry Bouldercrumble! I thought you were a rouge."  He scoffed. "Clearly."  "I haven't seen you around camp much nowadays," she squeaked then mumbled to herself, "mostly crying and thinking of Crowswoop." "What's that?" he asked, unable to fully hear, as his ears weren't the greatest." He never got a response, so they both went their separate ways.

RP with Birchberry: (same as the previous one) Birchberry, a young, friendly, cheerful, bored Shadowclan warrior, was padding beside the border, watching as the leaves of both the pines and oaks swayed in the wind. A tom-Bouldercrumble- sat on a rock grooming his whiskers, almost seeming as if he were waiting for someone, although he wasn't. Birchberry was oblivious to the tom-cat and kept walking, her paws lightly touching the ground as she walked at the edge of the border. She had no intention of crossing it, but she did however want to look at the beautiful oak-leaves. She had always admired them.  He looked at her, round bronze eyes narrowed. "You're an awfully small patrol." She jumped in surprise, her eyes wide in alarm. She trembled, and, to try and slow her racing heart, she breathed in deeply a couple of times before she answered the tom. "I-I'm not a p-patrol," She stammered. "I was just going for a walk-"  "Why so close to ThunderClan?" he asked coolly. She paused. "I like looking at the oak leaves," She admitted truthfully, flicking her tail.  "hmm. Alright, I suppose," he meowed after a moment's consideration. He figured she posed no threat, and she was still on her territory, so he left.

RP with Ashripple (like an hour after speaking with Birchberry)  Ashripple stumbled, tripping on the dry terrain. He sighed loudly, sitting down and staring helplessly around the new area. Where had he gotten to this time? He was completely lost, and he was practically oozing gloom as he looked around.  Bouldercrumble was laying near a tree, breathing heavily a little. He wasn't feeling too well. Ashripple collected himself. He had to get home to Ivyfall. After a short mental pep-talk, his ears swiveled towards Bouldercrumble. He turned, his unsure expression turning to a sheepish smile. "I don't think I'm in Riverclan anymore, am I?" He called out. Having only just noticed him, Bouldercrumble stood up, turned his head away out of politeness to cough, then looked back at Ashripple. "What gave it away? the lack of fish-stench? The reasonable amount of water instead of gallons of it in one area?" "Hm, or perhaps the lack of mud. That's usually a sure sign," He replied cooly. "Anyway, would you be kind enough to tell me exactly \*where\* we are? I'm afraid I much prefer to not be lost." He picked at a twig. It was disgustingly green here, although pretty much everything seemed somehow terribly happy. "ThunderClan territory," Bouldercrumble meowed, glancing to his left. What did he call all that mud there? He flicked his tail in the general direction of RiverClan. "You want to go that way." Ashripple glanced in the general direction of Riverclan. "Ah, wonderful." He yawned. Perhaps it was nicer in this area- It was certainly less wet, and it was warm here. "I've never met someone from another clan- Well, at least since I joined Riverclan. Would you mind if you came with me?" He asked airily; Although he hated to admit a large portion of the request was his terrible sense of direction. "Why?" Bouldercrumble asked. raising a brow. "I- Uhm-" the RiverClan tom looked down and scowled. "Because I do. Y'know, like, switching clan cultures. And all that jazz." He said weakly. "Fine," Bouldercrumble muttered through a forced smile of gritted teeth. He started walking toward the border. Ashripple let out a quiet breath in relief. "Don't have to sound so bitter about it," he muttered grumpily, following. "How did you end up so far into ThunderClan anyway? Sheesh, we marked the borders only a few hours ago." Ashripple tilted his head away in embarrassment. "I simply... Er... Fine, I was tryna hunt something, and then I lost it, and then I tried finding it, and then about an hour later, here we are." He huffed. "Why are *you* out here anyways, didn't look like you were hunting or anything," "Did you catch anything?" Bouldercrumble demanded immediately, ignoring the other tom's question. "Hmf. Yeah. I had to leave it though," Ashripple grumbled. "Darn right you do. there's a code against hunting on another clan's territory," Bouldercrumble said, a bit harshly. "Oh. Yeah. I... I'm sorry about this. I buried a bird behind a tree back there, you can take it when you go back," Ashripple said sheepishly. Bouldercrumble scowled. (might continue?)

Was admiring clouds, although he will deny this when Aspenivy invited him to hunt. Seeing as he had nothing better to do, he agreed, and they went hunting. As they were leaving camp, Bouldercrumble was enjoying the petrichor (the pleasant smell after it rains) but that annoying tom decided to splash Bouldercrumble. They went hunting and caught a lot of prey together.

Had a burning sensation in his throat so went to see the medicine cat. Mallardripple was the only one there so he talked to Mallardripple for the first time in well...ever. Mallardripple gave him the herb and Bouldercrumble said it seemed he was doing a good job training Snowsight. Mallardripple thanked him. He said WindClan was lucky to have him and he must miss them, then things got awkward, so he left.

A warrior clanmate of his pointed out that he was coughing when it was obvious and Bouldercrumble had a sarcastic reply for him. Don't remember the name though.

A few days later, was in the territory on a walk, when he saw a loner named Legend this was before Legend was actually allowed to visit ThunderClan that he knows of, so he tried to get him to leave, but Legend was a good conversationalist so he let him stay and talk for a little while even though most of the time was spent arguing. Finally, Bouldercrumble got fed up and scared him off.

48 moons)) Went hunting with Badgerglance

at gathering had a conversation with Cloverfoot of WindClan who seemed very paranoid and kept saying that someone might attack-anyone.

Went hunting with Aspenivy again, but they caught nothing, and then it started to rain pretty hard so they went back to camp, and started a water fight. well Aspenivy started, and Bouldercrumble thought it was stupid but he still played for a few minutes, then he said they should do something more useful. They did something, I don't remember what, but then Bouldercrumble saw a snail and said he swore he'd seen it before, so logically, aspenivy put it on Bouldercrumble and said they were now soulmates. bouldercrumble was annoyed, but let the snail stay there while he told aspenivy how annoying he was. then they got it off him and he decided to keep the snail as a pet. aspenivy suggested some dumb names, and bouldercrumble told him the names were dumb, but he decided on Soulmate, and that's not exactly great either. soulmate is called Sully for short.

sometime later that day it was still raining he found Icedrift trying to find a stone, which seemed kind of dumb to do in this weather.

a few days later Gorseburn (i think) gave him a feather crown and they had a conversation about when cats deserved kindness. Bouldercrumble can't say he agrees, but he respects her opinion.

TBH I don't remember what exactly happened in the next few moons. He talked a lot with Aspenivy and roasted him a few times, but in all, he has gotten to actually like Aspenivy and considers him a good friend. He talked with the new warrior Burrowdark slightly and he thought Bouldercrumble was weird for having a pet snail. He helped fight some foxes, had another conversation with Legend the very annoying loner when he was no longer staying with ThunderClan, and hunted with Badgerglance a few times. She is also a pretty good clanmate that he might be willing to admit he likes. Maybe. He also had a conversation with Badgerglance about the rain. She talked about the optimistic side of it, he talked about the pessimistic side of it. (see details in @SiGirl\_85's project "I'm just being realistic". https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/469428778 )

51 moons: (so I don't quite know the details) But he worked together with a bunch of cats to get Sunstar out from under a tree that had fallen on him in a storm, but Sunstar died. The cats currently think he has a few lives left and will be returning but he doesn't. Bouldercrumble is kind of depressed. He was never close with Sunstar, but the clan lost a good leader and the cat who had been leader Bouldercrumble's whole life (I think). To keep his mind busy he hunted with Ferntuft, though at first she tried showing him some pretty place and he rather rudely refused to stay. Oh, also a few days before he introduced her to Sully, and was happy for a few moments. Now, backtracking a little to I guess during Sunstar's funeral, he kind of lashed out at Aspenivy saying he should have helped and it was his fault, but he apologized right away.

52 moons: Bouldercrumble was mad at himself for kind of being a jerk to Aspenivy. He was also mad about not being able to save Sunstar. Okay, and a lot more stuff. Everybody's favorite aggravating cat, Legend was trespassing and Bouldercrumble told him to leave. Anyone who knows Legend knows that's not something he would do. He tried to find out why Bouldercrumble was in such a bad mood, and Bouldercrumble briefly mentioned cats dying. Including Sunstar. Legend kept bothering him, so Bouldercrumble threatened to rip out his tongue. Legend seemed very scared, but clearly not scared enough to get the freaking message and leave. He kept jabbering about his amazingness. Naturally, this ticked Bouldercrumble off, so he scratched Legend's ear. Legend completely overreacted, claiming he was going to die. Bouldercrumble told him not to give him false hope. Legend commented that it would be funny, if not directed at him. Bouldercrumble repeatedly told him to leave, then said if he didn't, they would fight. Now things get blurry because I haven't worked on this for weeks, but he ended up scaring Legend off.

over the next few moons: He hunted, patrolled, talked with Mosspuddle, realized he had a crush on Aspenivy but insists it's just a stroke, Ferntuft is bothering him about it though, he trained with Ferntuft. Poisonlake put pine needles in his nest because she was mad. he got them out before laying down

56 moons: Talked to Sinkingkit-yes I know shocking, and attempted to explain what pity and sarcasm were and why he was a grumpy cat who should be avoided. Sinkingkit didn't seem to think so

Walking in the territory with Ferntuft when a dog attacked them. It bit one of Bouldercrumble's back paws and hurt Ferntuft a little too. They hid in a tree for a few minutes to regain their strength and come up with a plan. They then went to chase it out and got help from a loner named Scarred who was Ferntuft's friend but Scarred's young son Mio showed up. They sent Mio home, and chased the dog back to twolegplace. Bouldercrumble did alright, but due to his injured paw, he limped somewhat, though at one point he was held up when an adder attacked him. Luckily he killed it before it could bit him. After seeing that the dog got back to its twoleg, Scarred told Ferntuft and Bouldercrumble that he needed to speak to Beestar. They agreed and went back toward ThunderClan territory with him. Bouldercrumble thought he heard Ferntuft mention something about her mother and foxes, but he knows his hearing isn't great, so who knows? He dismissed the thought and asked Scarred why he wanted to join the clan. Scarred told them that a few moons ago he met a kit who had lost their mom so he adopted them, and that his friend died that day and they wanted him to raise their three kits, but since Scarred had no mate, he wanted to bring them to ThunderClan. Ferntuft also mentioned that she thought Scarred wanted to join the clan, and Bouldercrumble has decided he wouldn't be against that. They got to camp, and Scarred told Bouldercrumble to go to the medicine cat den to get his paw looked at. Bouldercrumble put it off for a bit though. Ferntuft and Scarred talked about previous encounters briefly. Bouldercrumble reccomended that Ferntuft keep an eye on Scarred, not that Bouldercrumble didn't trust him, he just didn't want his clanmates to bother Scarred. Then he went to the medicine cat den.

A few days later he was watching Sully in camp, when Badgerglance came over and they started talking, having not had much of a conversation in quite some time it seemed. He told her about the dog and she told him about spending time with Ferntuft. They talked about the weather for a moment, which some might call boring, but Bouldercrumble would argue that being prepared for the weather is very important, it just happened to be boring this time. He also asked if Ferntuft was alright, mentioning that she helped chase the dog out. Badgerglance said her girlfriend (they aren't mates yet, right?) was fine as far as she knew. They then discussed how they both wanted apprentices and assured the other they would be a good mentor. They talked about Hollysmoke's kits. Badgerglance said she wondered who the father was. Bouldercrumble said he didn't care. Bouldercrumble went to get food and asked Badgerglance to watch Sully. He came back with a rabbit for them to share, which they did. They ate mostly in silence just enjoying each other's company, and he mentioned the thing about Scarred's adopted kits to Badgerglance. Then Bouldercrumble said goodbye to Badgerglance, took Sully to his little alcove on his piece of bark used for transport, and went to look for something useful to do, as he'd had an injured paw and couldn't do much.

57 moons: Woke up one morning around dawn, talked a bit about the possibility of Scarred and his kits joining the clan, then they went to see if they were on any patrols. Sun-high that same day, Beestar called a clan meeting. At the meeting he announced that Scarred and his kits were joining ThunderClan. Mio, Scarred's oldest son became Sproutpaw and Bouldercrumble was assigned as his mentor-though he felt a bit awkward when Ferntuft mentioned wanting to mentor him and offered to ask Beestar to reconsider but then she told him she didn't mind-which caused Poisonlake to rant about him.

58 moons: Trained Sproutpaw. Went hunting with Darkglow one very very hot greenleaf day and they cooled off by thunderfalls thanks to the mist. other stuff too that apparently wasn't important.

59: Big fox battle. I don't have to time to really document it, but someone else does. Bouldercrumble got broken ribs and a concussion.

Next few moons: He found out Sproutpaw got his face half ripped off. He was able to leave the medicine cat den though his ribs were still sore. He trained with Sproutpaw who was having trouble because he was older than most of the apprentices and thought he should be a warrior by now. He took a walk in twolegplace cause he was bored and met Kaibaz who asked about his snail. Sproutpaw became a warrior. Oh also, he probably had some bland conversations here and there and took care of Sully.

64 moons: He and Badgerglance hunted together and caught a few mice. They came back to camp and he went to get something for his sneeze, making a pessimistic remark about how maybe the sun had withered all the herbs. He knows he is exaggerating, just to be clear, it's not even that sunny, but Bouldercrumble will be Bouldercrumble.

not too long after this i went inactive and he was deleted, if i'm allowed to choose how he died i would probably say greencough

## Opinions on cats (his opinions. Not mine)

Egretkit (out of rp sister) I loved you, that's honestly the most simple way to put it. And some days I regret getting close to you. I knew at an early age you wouldn't live long. I think you're the reason I tend to avoid kits now

Sheepfrost (out of rp mother) Why should I care? You abandoned me when I was five moons old! I know you lost Egretkit, but I'd lost her too and I still needed you. Well, actually, I guess I didn't need you. I got along just great without you. You're probably dead now, and even if you are alive, I'm not about to track you down. You made your choice

Fennelriddle (out of rp father) I heard you were once a clever cat, but all I remember about you is you resenting me. Blaming me.

Aspenivy (friend crush? dead) You're certainly smart compared to some cats, even though I feel like some of your ideas should be obvious to other cats-and yes, myself too sometimes. You're a bit annoying, but I guess it's not fair to judge a cat for being playful. I suppose if we become friends I could learn to enjoy what I currently consider annoying from you. Okay...maybe we are friends. And okay, maybe I like you, but it's probably just a stroke. This is what I used to think..now I just miss you

Whoever the heck gave him the feather crown (acquaintance) Your opinions on cats seem a little too optimistic for me to really agree with, but I guess it's nice to think about. You are certainly a very kind cat and the world could use more cats like you, just as long as most cats aren't like what I've seen of you. No offense

Badgerglance (friend) You're certainly an optimist, but you aren't illogical and you're good at noticing many things others can't. I'm proud to have you as a clanmate

Poisonlake (enemy) Immature brat. I'm astounded you were allowed to become a warrior. Granted I haven't spoken to you much, but giving you another chance will seriously be a burden

## Opinions on Bouldercrumble

### (Other cats)

thinks he's okay. He wants him to watch the throat and come to him if it gets any worse -Mallardripple

He seems nice, but he's pretty serious and down-to-earth. He seems like he'd be a good friend, but he needs to loosen up a bit. He also seems quite thoughtful, and I suppose I can learn from him in that aspect -Aspenivy

He doesn't have a dislike of the tom, but for some unknown reason he is mildly scared and intimidated by Bouldercrumble -Splashstone

An immature kit that doesn't know how to accept an apology. I SAID I was sorry, but DID HE LISTEN? NOOOO... -Poisonlake

I feel that he’s a loyal warrior, but struggles to see the good in things. I also believes he’s a good ally to have in a fight. -Ferntuft

he's a little pessimistic, but a really nice cat when you get to know him, and a good friend. He may be a little hard to approach to begin with, but I'm glad I've gotten to know him. -Badgerglance

Bouldercrumble? He's annoying. And grumpy. And uptight. The cat needs to break the rules a little, and just relax. He also doesn't appreciate me at all-- it's quite vexing, to say the least. He doesn't seem to be amused by my wit or charmed by my... by my charm, I guess. Maybe it goes over his head? I'm not exactly sure, but while I guess he's all loyal or whatever, it's not loyalty to /me/ so I don't like it. Also he always threatens me. -Legend

(Other rpers)

"He's a bit aggressive from what I've seen, but that's it" - @IzMizLiz

## Quotes

### (Out loud)

"I want to be what I believe to be right. I will not change my personality just to meet the standards of other cats. especially not cats who are trespassing on my clan's territory" said to Legend

"There's always gonna be some sort of pain, especially today, this is just the pain I have decided to take for now." Also said to Legend about speaking to him. (I really should update this more)

"I'm what cats might call a pessimist, but I'm not that much of a pessimist." Said to Mosspuddle on the subject of a world with no trees

wow," he said in a sarcastic tone. "That was some burn and now my little ego is shattered. It's not that I didn't accept your apology, it's that it doesn't change facts. You've been annoying and are being annoying now. I'm still gonna keep giving you chances, but right now I don't have time. I need to go train my apprentice.-said to Poisonlake
