Character by Logan, Art by CAY

## **Description/Personality**

Boarpaw is a roan she-cat with darker brown points, and even darker tabby stripes on her face, legs, and tail, and a white belly, her right eye is a striking yellow, while the left is a cool gray.

She's very good at sticking to rules, and loves the Warrior Code enough to rival Hollyleaf. Because of this she has anxiety,

## **Life Events**

Boarkit met Anna while she moved into the nursery, asking her if she was from Starclan due to her pure white pelt. Anna helped her become proud of her eyes, (Heterochromia made her nervous to talk to cats). Boarkit thinks of Anna as a friend. Anna told her about Twolegplace, where she came from. Boarkit inquired what a 'Twoleg' was, asking if they were nice. Anna said she called them friends. Boarkit became very proud of herself and told Anna that she was related to Boarstar, (being her granddaughter), and Anna told her about her. Anna told her that every cat starts out small, and she could be just as great and strong as Boarstar or Gingerstar one day, even if they have extra lives.

Anna told Boarkit about how she got to the clans, having to cross a mountain from the twolegplace.

After constantly arguing with her sister, Boarpaw was apprenticed to Joltstrike, finding that their eyes were similarly colored. This increased her self confidence, despite her sister's antics.

Soon after, Oasispaw and Rushpaw snuck out of camp, and Boarpaw followed them. She found Oasispaw high up in a tree and felt terrified that she would fall. Thankfully, both she-cats got down safely. Later on, she defended Oasispaw from Rushpaw's teasing. Unfortunately it wasn't very appreciated, causing the sisters to split apart further.

When Oasispaw and Boarpaw went hunting with Roanstrike, Boarpaw got distracted by a mouse and wandered away from the group. Oasispaw pushed Roanstrike into the ravine, Boarpaw returning shortly after to see her oddly calm sister. She panicked, running back for camp, thrown off by how calm her sister was about the death. She ran into Fadedpath, yelling about Roanstrike, before Sunnydune approached her with calming herbs. When Oasispaw and Rushpaw returned with Fadedpath, Boarpaw confronted her sister. The conversation got heated quickly, Boarpaw accusing her sister (Ironically) of murder. Oasispaw smiled, for a split second, but it was enough to send Boarpaw's thoughts reeling. She screamed, telling Oasispaw to never talk to her again, basically disowning her as sister.

The day after, she confessed to Joltstrike that she was scared of her sister, telling him that she smiled after being accused of murder. He stopped in his tracks, startling her. After a talk about trust, and how he found it hard, she told him that he could take all the time he needed to trust her: She isn't going anywhere anytime soon. He said she reminded him of someone dear to him.

He decided to change the training routine in order to teach her about reincarnation, talking about Starclan and then, carefully, teaching her about the Dark Forest.

## **Relationships**

Foxshine: Boarpaw's relationship with her mother is vague, as best, but she loves her and would do anything to protect her.

Oasispaw: Boarpaw hates her sister, more than she could ever believe. She used to be protective of her, going so far as to follow her to training to make sure she didn't get hurt, but after the incident with Roanstrike and the ravine, Boarpaw *fears* Oasispaw.

Palmpaw: Boarpaw looks up to Palmpaw and finds she likes her a lot more than Oasispaw.

Acornpaw: :hearteyes:

Joltstrike: Boarpaw looks up to her mentor, and at one point thought Joltstrike was her father because of their eyes. She quickly found out about Mangoflower however and put her questions to rest.
