## Appearance

She is a rather plain and slender dark grey she-cat with even darker grey socks on her two for legs. Her tail is rather silky and feathery, and it’s tip is a dark grey, like her forelegs, as well as her ears. Her eyes are a gentle blue.

## Personality

Nightpaw isn’t an impressionable cat, despite her youth, and she is rather willful and stubborn. She’s friendly and has a strong desire to belong somewhere. By nature she is a bit of a klutz and doesn’t always know what to do with herself, but if there is a will then there is a way, as her mother taught her.

## Kit-Hood

Nightkit never got the chance to meet her father, Darkrise, and hardly remembers her mother, Specklefeather. Her father lost someone close to him in the Great Fire, and one day he just up and left. At least that’s what appears to have happened. Her mother died not long after Nightkit began to remember things, leaving her with hardly any recollection of her. Her clearest memory of Specklefeather is when she told her this, “Where there is a will there is a way, my sweet Nightkit.” As an orphan kit she didn’t really know where she fit in, until she met Doekit. She loved hanging out with Doekit, and before long she and Doekit had declared that they were now siblings. Sisters to the end, as she saw it. They had a great deal of fun, and Nightkit even came across a female ladybug that happened to have busted wings. Nightkit ans Doekit worked together to contstuct a little hut out of sticks for the ladybug, and named her Leaf. They regularly take care of her and let her out of her little hut, and so the little ladybug essentially became their pet. When the clan exploded with kits she honestly didn’t know what to do. There were so many kits and the nursery felt crowded instead of empty. She mingled with them a bit, and eventually came up with the idea to make two little play clans that could fight or make peace or so whatever. Doekit was the leader of one, and Oakkit the leader of the other. She served as Doekit’s deputy, Nightsong, and honestly felt like she had a place and a family. She was eager to be a warrior like most kits, but the rising tension between Puddleclan and Hollowclan slowly ate away at her drive and left her lost. She had a few encounters with Fireswan, and an idea began to take root in her mind. Another possible option that she wanted to consider. As a Medicine Cat she could help heal those that were hurt, and be a voice of reason in tense times, and that really began to appeal to her. She kept this mostly to herself as a kit.

## Medicine Cat Apprenticeship

The day of her apprentice ceremony was nerve racking, and while she knew what she wanted she didn’t know how to get it. Ryestar apprenticed her to another Warrior at first, but to her surprise Fireswan interrupted and said that she wanted Nightpaw as her apprentice. She was overjoyed, despite some of the surprise that this choice came with, and her first visit to the Moonshard was amazing. Her respect for her ansestor grew tenfold that day, but she kept in mind that they were from an age past, and that they can only advise the clans on the next step. They can’t make the journey or dreams realities. Her first real patient was Snowkit, who had been supposedly kidnapped by Puddleclan. Snowkit had protested that who Ryestar was acusing hadn’t done it, and it broke her heart to see. She treated Snowkit for any possible shock and for her cough, and was thankful that is was practically garunteed that she would eat better.
