## Relations

Mate: Molescar

Friendships: N/A

Enemies: N/A

Mentor: Unknown.

## Interests

*Likes*

She enjoys work; maybe a little bit too much. Her favorite prey is a lapwing, and she enjoys sunning herself outside the den when the weather is good. She enjoys gathering little trinkets, though she quickly stashes them away in her shame; along with her angry personality, Shellkit picked this habit up as well.

*Dislikes*

Cardinalfall dislikes small spaces, as she has a strangely irrational fear of them. She hates the cold and the rain with a passion; water always makes her long fur wet for ages.

## Skills/Faults

*Skills*

Cardinalfall is *quite* the manipulator, easily turning herself into the victim. Her long fur helps her keep warm in the cold days of Leaf-bare. She also has very long and sharp claws, which are helpful when hunting.

*Faults*

Her large frame and thick fur, similar to Shellkit, makes stealth quite difficult for her- not to mention her bright ginger fur! Her cold and bitter attitude towards her kin also causes drifts and arguments within her bloodline. Her two-faced personality makes her unreliable.

## Personality

Cardinalfall is quite sweet-seeming around other cats, especially higher-ranking ones, however is fairly bitter around her mate and sole kit; Shellkit. She tends to compare others a bit unfairly, however always smooths her way around punishment with her silver tongue. She's very very protective towards other kits in the Nursery, especially those she deems her 'favorites.'

## Detailed History

*Valleystar's Reign*

*Dawnstar's Reign*

She is first introduced watching over Shellkit in the nursery. She is later complained about by her daughter and hinted at being somewhat abusive towards her kit, looked down on by Velvetkit, who references that it is against the Prairies' Promise to act cruel towards your own kit. She is later also praised by Carrionsaunter, who considers her personality refreshing similar to her daughter's when compared to most other nursery Queens, or cats similar in age to her.

## Detailed Appearance

Cardinalfall is a ginger tabby she-cat, with hazel eyes. Her ears are torn, and she has a smidge of white on her muzzle. She is tall and well-built; intimidating to most. She wears a cold, but thawing expression, matching her bittersweet personality.

## Kin

Mother: Morningfeather

Father: Tallspots

Brothers: Tansypaw and Pansypaw

Daughter: Shellkit

Kits: Pricklekit and Dandelionkit

## Backstory

She was born to two Trackers; however her mother, Morningfeather, only existed in her life for three moons; as soon as she was weaned, she picked up and left her and her littermates with Tallspots. (Forgot to add, warning for death,) Her father passed away a moon before the trios apprentice ceremony. One day, Cardinalpaw, Tansypaw, and Pansypaw were all training, however were ambushed by a strange rouge that whispered to them lies of a couragous and glory-filled future if they followed him. Tansypaw and Pansypaw were taken after they grew interested, and Cardinalpaw was almost taken by force, however she ran off, too swift for the large cat. Her littermates and the rouge disappeared without a trace, and Cardinalpaw began to fall into a deep anger, blaming her absent mother and dead father for all of her problems; if she had parental figures to guide her and her brothers, they would still be here. She was named Cardinal*fall* because of her slow spiral into bitterness. She was thawed by the Tunneler Molescar, bearing his three kits; Shellkit, Dandelionkit, and Pricklekit. Two of them died soon after birth as they were simply too weak, and Cardinalfall, not knowing how to be a proper mother due to her lack of a parental figure, along with her own anger and guilt, often treats her remaining daughter with fury.
