## Physical Description

Coldwind‘s appearance is that of a lithe silver-and-white she-cat with cold ice blue eyes. She stands at approximately 8.8 inches high. Coldwind has thick, glossy, medium-length fur that is soft like a feather, but sleek and glossy like a RiverClan's cats. She has a long, sleek tail, a fluffy chest, and long claws.

## Personality

Coldwind is highly ambitious and desperate to prove herself. She won’t hesitate to question authority or break the Warrior Code if it’s for what she deems is the greater good. Arrogant and cocky, she gets into arguments and fights, as she believes anyone who contradicts her is wrong. Like her name, she can be frosty and has a cold presence about her.

However, if she finds a friend, she has a kind, empathetic side. If she meets a cat she was betrayed by, she will be cold, blunt, and react negatively.

Coldwind is struggling with what she wants to do, and she's being a bit more thoughtful and serious, while still being quite brash and stubborn. She knows what she wants to do, but doesn't know if she wants to take the steps.

Coldwind is currently depressed with the death of her almost mate, crush Crowspirit, and is mourning. Since his death, she has gotten meaner, and has sided with the now blinded Raindash.

She is now dead, and is a wise, calm, empathetic cat, with her sharp tongue, temper, and sarcasm.

## Skills and Weaknesses

Coldwind trained in the Dark Forest and has higher-than-average fighting and hunting skills. However, when she gets angry she forgets everything she's learned, attacking blindly, and rashly which makes her very easy to defeat.

She can‘t bring herself to hurt certain cats that she likes or was loyal to at one point.

She trusts in StarClan but doesn't always follow the Warrior Code.

## Life

### Kithood

Coldkit has a complicated kit-hood. She was abandoned and adopted into ShadowClan at 5 moons by Raindash. She vaguely remembers life before the Clans, but doesn’t talk about it. She was mad at Furstar because she was apprenticed at 8 moons instead of the normal 6. Even as a kit, she felt the pressure of not being Clanborn, and always felt judged.

She thought Raindash was the best thing ever, and wanted her recognition, so she sneaked out of camp and got into a fight with three WindClan kits to try and prove herself worthy. Raindash saved her, but wasn't happy with her. She didn't understand why, because she thought she was just defending the territory. Raindash left the Clan and she was “given” to Poppybriar with her siblings Ripplepaw and Pinekit. Feeling furious, she yelled at Poppybriar that she wasn’t her mom or Raindash. When Poppybriar died, Coldwind didn't mourn her death, but now regrets that and mourns her everyday.

Around the age of 5 moons, after the WindClan fight, she snuck out again and met Crowkit of ThunderClan.

### Apprenticeship

Coldpaw's mentor was Willowtail, but Coldpaw didn’t care when she died. Coldpaw trained in the Dark Forest, learning to fight. She avoided her new mentor and didn't even know her mentor's name. She continued meeting Crowkit, now Crowpaw, and developed a crush on him.

In the Dark Forest, she became a more ruthless and twisted cat, ready to do anything to achieve her ambition.

### Adult Life

Newly named Coldwind at 13 moons, she decided to try and repair relationships and talked with Fallenclaw. She is now with Crowpaw, waiting until he becomes a warrior. She continues to train in the Dark Forest, and has had interactions with Quickstep. Coldwind is struggling with the Warrior Code, and her one love. She was told that if she were to have kits, she might die. Coldwind still wants kits, but she wants to be there for Crowpaw.

She is thinking about what she should do, turning to the Dark Forest, which told her to kill Crowpaw, and is now looking for StarClan's help. She talked to Poppybriar, and made up with her. She is starting a friendship with Beechtalon.

Crowpaw now Crowspirit has died, and Coldwind is depressed. She has an apprentice, Stagpaw, and is acting as a foster mother.

Raindash has come back to camp blinded, and Coldwind saw this as a chance to make up with her. She sided with her even though Raindash killed her sister, wanting to stay loyal to her mother.

She went on a walk with Raindash, and saved her from a monster. However, she was hit by the monster, and has died. Poppybriar has taken her to StarClan
