## « Appearance »

Koiskip is a RiverClan warrior. He is medium height and , and medium fur length. His fur is mainly white with pale ginger splotches, and he has pale green eyes, that look like willow trees.

## « Personality »

Koiskip is constantly curious, and has tireless energy which means he can be a pain to some cats. He is slightly bossy towards other apprentices and kits, and overprotective of those he loves the most. He's compassionate, and always willing to try harder to be the best, which means he can overwork himself or be too hard on himself when things go wrong. He hates holding grudges, but if necessary, he can be extremely unforgiving.

## « Skills and Weaknesses »

(+) **Speed**

* Koiskip is extremely swift for a RiverClan cat, being able to run as fast as most WindClan cats.

(-) **Focus**

* He can't keep his focus on stuff for long without wriggling or moving

(=) **Peace**

* He hates battles, and much prefers peaceful ways of sorting things out through words.

(+) **Wits**

* He's witty and intelligent, often coming up with ways to make cats smile.

(-) **Tracking**

* Koiskip finds tracking difficult, especially if he has to stay quiet and still.

## « Kithood »

Koikit was born in RiverClan to Shellberry and Hawkstorm along with his littermates Cloudkit and Flashkit. First born, he was feisty from the beginning, accidentally kicking out at the young medicine cat, Dewberry's nose.

On his first time out of the nursery, he met his grandfather, Badgerstar, who taught him how to swim. Since he was still young, he fell asleep on Badgie's back, exhausted after meeting several cats.

At the age of 2 moons, Koikit witnessed the death of a visitor in RiverClan named Sassy. He had never met the she-cat before, but being young, he was quite upset at seeing a cat pass away. He helped by fetching older cats, including his aunt Lightflare, Honeypaw, and Beechstorm, and never forgot that stormy day - the first day he truly felt like he had served his clan.

Koikit attempted an escape from camp at the age of 4 moons, caught almost immediately by Badgerstar, who he didn't recognise at first, and began cursing. He then realised who he was talking to, and got asked who taught him the phrase 'Mouse Dung'. Koikit explained that he had heard all the warriors using it all the time.

## « Apprenticeship »

Just as Koipaw had wanted, his friend, Ivyfall became his mentor. During his ceremony, he vowed to her that he would try his hardest to become the best warrior he could possibly be. Later on that day, he went hunting with her at silver falls in search of salmon, and he learned that he didn't have to stay still to do all the things other warriors did.

When he was 8 moons old, he attended his first gathering, and met a WindClan warrior named Eaglespark, who chatted with him with no signs of hostility, as if they were clanmates.

When Koipaw was 8 moons old, he ventured outside of his own territory, and ended up on ThunderClan soil. He was chasing a butterfly, and bumped into a young she-cat named Peonypaw, who he had a conversation with. She told him about the long lost SkyClan that her mentor had told her. Again, Koipaw met a cat from another clan who chatted with no hostility, yet this time it was not the full moon, therefore they were doing it at their will.

Charkit told Koipaw that she had found a stash of thistles in the nursery, and guessed that they were once his. He explained that he used them in the nests of rude or mean cats, and she asked whether he could put some in Songcrash's and Cloverkit's nests. He agreed to putting some in Cloverkit's, and told her that he'll think about how to get them into ThunderClan.

He talked to Patchkit for a while, on a clear Leaf - Fall night about the day, and ate minnow, which Koipaw claimed as his 'second favourite fish', behind salmon. Patchkit gifted him with a striped blue feather, and Koipaw gave the little tom a rosemary stalk with beautiful lilac flowers.

When he was a few moons older, he met Puddlepaw, a kind and helpful she-cat, that would become one of his closest friends. They hung out lots, going out on night expeditions and training sessions, learning that they could both run fast, but also needed work on their fighting.

## « Warrior life »

Koiskip was only 12 moons old when he got his warrior name, which was chosen because of his hyperactivity and positive outlook on life.

When Koiskip was a new warrior, he spotted Peonypaw of ThunderClan on RiverClan territory, who was looking for her close friend Baypaw, the medicine cat who had mysteriously left Thunderclan.

As he got older, he grew closer to his friend, Puddelcloud. He saw her again when he was sitting on the bank of the stream by the RiverLedge, mourning for his parents, who had been kidnaped by twolegs. She comforted him, and they watched the sunset together, eating a salmon he had caught.

On a trip out of camp with Puddlecloud the next day, the two cats sprinted out of camp together, and found a place to spend time on some rocks in the middle of a river. Koiskip caught a minnow for them to share, and asked her to be his mate. She accepted happily, and they watched snow fall together that evening.

## « Quotes »

"*Uhh... the river?" -* Koipaw to Ivyfall

 “*My tail? I have no idea. It won’t stop moving.” -* Koipaw to Ivyfall

"*Do you reckon it would be cool from up there?"* - Koipaw to Eaglespark

*"I guess it isn't, and I realised that a few moons ago. And you never know - the world is a magical place."* - Koipaw to Patchkit

*"Songcrash didn't deserve a cat like you, however much you believe it. There are so many cats who like you though, Driftwind. You're one of the warriors I most look up to, along with most of the kits. Charkit may be upset, but she'll get over it - she is a kind cat like you, and she'll eventually realise that all you did was try to be nice." -* Koipaw to Driftwind

*"Your fur looks beautiful in this light."* - Koiskip to Puddlecloud
