## Appearance and Personality

#### Appearance

Twistwhisker is a skinny tom with a rather broad build and very short, thin fur. His pelt is mostly white, but his back, sides, and shoulders are broken by patches of pale brown that are striped with thin darker lines, twisting and curling into swirly spiral shapes. His ears also have light brown patches stretching down to his eyes, which are a pale yellow and often rheumy. The fur on his elbows and at the base of his tail is longer and more scraggly, and there is a long scar slashed diagonally across his chest.

**Personality**

Shh I'm too lazy

## Backstory

#### Kithood

He was born to a rogue named Wren, along with his sister, Duck. His name was Twist. They never knew their father, as he died while Wren was pregnant, and she never told them anything about him - not even his name. Wren travelled a lot with her kits, and they never settled in one place for long. Their kithood was fairly normal until they were five moons old, when Wren was killed by another rogue while fighting over prey one difficult leaf-bare. Twist and Duck were pretty much on their own from then on, and they provided for themselves and each other, until they found their way into FallClan territory about a moon later.

Twist had to hunt for them both since Duck sort of sucked at everything, and he eventually resorted to fishing. He accidentally fell into the water, though, and was rescued by Stoatpaw, who told him about FallClan. Twist was intrigued by the concept, and he talked to Duck about it. She agreed that it sounded like a good place to live, and they were permitted to join.

#### Apprenticeship

Twistpaw and Duckpaw became FallClan apprentices at six moons old. They trained like normal cats. He became good friends with Stoatpaw and Wingpaw, who'd moved from HorizonClan, and developed a crush on a young MarshClan apprentice named Petalpaw. He sort of became friends with her through gatherings, and flirted with her whenever he had the chance. All was well.

All was even weller when, during one particular gathering, Petalpaw asked him if he wanted to stay behind at Silver Falls with her. Twistpaw was extremely excited and agreed to it. So once most of the other cats had left, the two of them started playing around in the mist. Hoping to prank Petalpaw, Twistpaw jumped through one of the waterfalls and accidentally discovered the cave behind it. Then they both explored the little cavern and thought it was amazing and very pretty. There, Twistpaw confessed that he had a crush on her, and to his delight, she said that she thought she liked him, too. After that, they were sort of... y’know, unofficially ‘middle school dating’. PetalTwist was pure.

At one point, when he was about ten moons old, Twistpaw decided to bring Stoatpaw with him to visit Petalpaw in MarshClan. Stoatpaw was soon to become a warrior, and Twistpaw wanted his friend to meet his new girlfriend. Once they’d crossed the border, however, they were suddenly attacked by a badger. Stoatpaw froze up because he had some bad experience with badgers, and Twistpaw sprang into action, managing to drive off the badger and return the favor of saving Stoatpaw's life - but not before getting his chest pretty badly clawed. Since they were closer to MarshClan's camp anyways, Stoatpaw just got him over there and he was seen to by the newly-named Cherrycloud. He survived it, and on the bright side, he got to chill in MarshClan with Petalpaw for a few days. Petalpaw felt guilty for having indirectly caused his injury, but Twistpaw wasn’t too upset about it. They both just geeked over how cool his new scars looked for a while. Duckpaw yelled at him for being dumb when he got back after several days, but he figured that in the long run, it had totally been worth it.

Oh, he also got into a fight with Wingpaw's brother Larchpaw once. He was trying to visit Wingpaw in FallClan and somehow got into an argument with Twistpaw. Twistpaw accidentally knocked him into the water and he almost drowned. It wasn't fun. Twistpaw got yelled at for that. But everything turned out fine.

#### Warrior Life

He earned his warrior name, Twistwhisker, at twelve moons old. His relationship with Petalleaf got more serious, and after several moons, Twistwhisker chose to surprise her by moving to MarshClan without telling her first. So he did that. He sort of just showed up one day and declared he was staying. Petalleaf was thrilled, and... they sort of were just mates after that. Neither of them had even asked the other, and neither of them ever said it - but they didn’t have to. They were mates all the same. Duckfeather also moved to MarshClan not long afterwards to be with her own mate, Flamefur. Twistwhisker was happy. He had his sister and his wife with him. Things were chill for a while.

When he was thirty-one moons old, Petalleaf gave birth to his daughter, Fawnkit. Twistwhisker already loved his daughter more than life, and was very content with his new family. They all loved each other and it was great. He and Petalleaf had a fright once when Fawnkit got lost outside of camp, but Whitepaw brought her back safely and all was well.

Only a moon after Fawnpaw became an apprentice, though, Petalleaf caught greencough, and within a few weeks, she died. That was pretty uncool. Twistwhisker was kind of devastated by that. Before long, Fawnpaw left to join HorizonClan, leaving Twistwhisker alone in MarshClan. Fairly soon after that, Duckfeather died, too, and her son Scorchstripe left the Clans. So Twistwhisker became a sad guy. He kept serving his Clan until he was about seventy moons old, then decided that he might as well retire.

#### Retirement

Twistwhisker became an elder and vibed for a while. He was the only elder in the elders’ den for a good eight billion years, and he would just sit there and think sadly about how lonely he was and how much he missed his family. Someone should’ve, like, talked to him or something.

Scorchstripe came back to the Clans eventually, but he joined OrchidClan instead of returning to MarshClan. Then he died. That was unfortunate.

Speaking of OrchidClan, Twistwhisker befriended two OrchidClan elders through gatherings: Stickstripe and Fallowfleck. He also stayed in touch with Wingbreak and Stoatthroat and made fun of them when they also retired.

When the plague happened, he was kind of worried, mostly about Fawnflower since he had no good way of contacting her directly after the borders closed. That was sort of frightening. He kept yeeting Sootsnow off to confirm with Mistrunner that his daughter was alive and well.

Twistwhisker himself got the plague at one point, too. He didn't die, though. He survived it thanks to Whitebird and Hazewish spazzing at him. Good job, Twistwhisker.

Then he just kept on existing for an excruciatingly long period of time. He talked a bit to Pepperpaw and Gingerpaw on one occasion. He also told some stories to Hollykit and Warrenkit. That's, like, all he did.

Currently, he just chills in the elders’ den, wishing he had friends. Help. Help him.
