## History

Hopwhisker was born into the litter of Burdockfoot and Duskcloud with her littermates, Cricketkit and Shrewkit, during year 2. As a kit, she had the 'Polite' personality.

During year 3, she was mentored by Ravenspot, and on their first patrol together, she caught a rabbit. She really bonded with Ravenspot during her apprenticeship. After Duskcloud's death, she became more cold and reserved, but her former mentor was there to make sure she didn't shut out everyone completely. Twigclaw got his eye scar while protecting Hopwhisker from a rogue, witch she felt a bit guilty about.

During year 4, she participated in the battle against CreekClan, and was busy fighting against a more experienced cat, holding her own, being unaware of Cricketflower's death. After learning about Cricketflower's death at the end of the battle, Hopwhisker tried to push everyone away, but Twigclaw was able to melt her coldness, and make her laugh. They ended up getting together, and even had a kit, Palekit. She was happy with her family, but was annoyed with her immature sister, Shrewpatch. Her kit, had inherited some of Duskcloud's brown coloring, reminding the clan of someone they missed.

During year 5, she got into a fight with Shrewpatch and yelled at her, because her sister got into a skirmish with Brokentail from CreekClan, and was injured. Hopwhisker yelled at her for being so reckless, she was worried about losing her sister just like she lost her dad and Cricketflower. After Hopwhisker left the nursery, she got one of Odd's kits as apprentice, Ottertail. She was a good mentor, and made sure to do her best, but unfortunately, both Twigclaw and her apprentice caught the sickness, and Hopwhisker was destroyed when her mate died due to it. Twigclaw had been the joyful spark that melted her cold heart again and again. She became more short tempered as she grieved, but she still put extra effort into training her apprentice. She was still a bit annoyed with Shrewpatch because of the previous arguments they had, and was still a bit snappy.

During year 6, Hopwhisker and Shrewpatch managed to talk with each other, and share their own feelings. Hopwhisker told her that she fell in love with Twigclaw during the hard time of losing her brother soon after her father, and her mate helped her look to the future and she wanted to live the best life, and live in the moment to make her loved ones happy. After getting everything off their chest, the sisters understood each other a lot better, and they started to share prey, and go on patrols together. They ran into rogues during a patrol and Shrewpatch got a torn ear, but Hopwhisker was relieved that it wasn't anything worse.

During year 7, Hopwhisker passed away due to a contagious disease, at the same time as Laketree. She died when she was 60 moons old, leaving Palepath behind, who lost both of her parents. Earlier the year, she had a great time, chasing off foxes and providing for the clan.
