## Appearance

Jasminebreeze is a sleek, lean, faded purple she-cat with a white mask, thin stripes running along her back, paws, and ears. She has pink horns and red-pink eyes, along with a faded lavender stomach/chest. Her wings are similar to the color of her horns, although more of an orange tint.

## Personality

Jasminebreeze has always been calm, reserved, and analytical. Despite the feuds with BeachClan over the past years, Jasminebreeze had stayed as civil and friendly as possible. She always tried to befriend Finstar and his clanmates during her time as leader, until the incident with Quetzalflame.

After the event, Jasminebreeze (Jasminestar, at the time) stayed rather passive-aggressive and dismissive with BeachClan. Although she wished to stay calm with Finstar and resolve their issues, Finstar retaliated against her wishes and became defensive, causing Jasminebreeze to reciprocate his behavior towards BeachClan.

## Life Events/Backstory

Her kit and apprentice life were very normal. She was born to Ethermoon (NPC) and Canarysong (NPC), with her sister Mistykit. When apprenticed, she was mentored by Breezeshine (NPC).

A moon before Zephyrstar lost his last life, he hastily made Jasminebreeze his successor, despite not knowing the warrior well. When Zephyrstar passed, she was quickly given her nine lives. She panicked, as she didn't know who to pick for a deputy; she didn't know anyone, and no one knew her. She did what she felt was best, and made her sister, Mistymoon, deputy of TempestClan.

Unfortunately, quickly after the beginning of her leadership, a devastating hurricane ripped through TempestClan's camp, destroying a majority of the dens and resulting in the loss of a few of their apprentices. At her first gathering, she announced the death of Zephyrstar and the destruction of her camp. Finstar, kindly, offered to help TempestClan to reestablish peace between the two clans. Jasminebreeze happily accepted, although her clanmates were not too happy about it.

The two clans devised a plan to have TempestClan warriors carry BeachClan cats up to their camp. Though BeachClan was wary of this idea, they followed through as per their leaders orders. Unfortunately, a BeachClan warrior, Shellwave, was dropped and killed by Quetzalflame. Following this horrific event, there was many speculations as to whether it was intentional or not. Jasminebreeze received backlash for not immediately punishing Quetzalflame, because she did not want to punish the warrior without evidence that he purposefully killed the BeachClan warrior. This incident fueled BeachClan's aggression towards TempestClan immensely, and reasonably so.

In the moons following this incident, StarClan grew unhappy with the two clans. Many times during Gatherings, StarClan would show their anger by covering the moon with clouds and occasionally striking thunder into the ocean surrounding them. One moon, during a Gathering, the two clans began to argue about the whereabouts of Kestrelpaw, TempestClan's medicine cat, after a TempestClan warrior accused BeachClan of murdering the apprentice. In frustration, Starlingsoar walked to Finstar and was nudged by the leader. This sparked anger inside Jasminebreeze, and although neither remember who attacked first, a fight broke out between the two leaders. Due to them falling off the Gathering spot to the ground, both lost a life in the process. The two leaders decided to go home without another word, as StarClan had sent strong winds and raging waves to alert the clans of their anger.

Moons and moons passed, and Jasminebreeze was becoming mentally weak. The stress of the war and the feeling that she was dooming her clan weighed heavily on her shoulders. In time it became too much for her to handle - so she retired, passing the position of leader onto her brother and deputy, Starlingsoar. She knew in her heart that he would lead their clan to glory, as he was resilient, intelligent, and courageous.

She now resides in the warriors den, still attending Gatherings and speaking to her beloved brother about clan business. Jasminebreeze is happier now, knowing that letting Starlingstar become leader was the best decision she could've made for her clan.
