Linnpoppy

## Overview

Linnpoppy is one of the nine main protagonists of TSC, the others being Calladawn, Chimeleap, Fennelspring, Palewillow, Bluebellpetal, Mothskip, Milkdapple, and Plumeriadust. Linnpoppy is one of the more complicated protagonists, but she hopes she'll find her way someday. Linnpoppy shares the CC perspective with Plumeriadust.

## General Characteristics

### Appearance

Linnpoppy is a white she-cat with blue eyes and soft, sleek fur. Her tail fur tends to be more ruffled and she has an average build. She has reddish-brown Van markings, black ear and tail tips, and a smudge of reddish-brown on her nose.

#### Physical Strengths and Weaknesses

Linnpoppy is fairly average in terms of strength and speed. Her main weakness is how unfamiliar she is with the terrain and cats of CoveClan.

### Personality

+: Trusting, Persevering, Loyal, Introspective

=: Vulnerable, Guarded, Quiet, Observant

-: Solitary/Loner

Linnpoppy is a cat of contradictions. She is extremely guarded about most things but is willing to be vulnerable about a few to keep cats off her back. She is a trusting and loyal cat who has been betrayed by those closest to her. She is solitary and introspective but doesn't like to feel alone. Her greatest strength is her ability to persevere, to get up and try again time after time. She is somewhat respected among her Clanmates for her extensive knowledge of what Clan life is meant to look like.

## Background

### Early Life/Before Chapter 1

Linnpoppy grew up the daughter of two of ShoreClan's most respected warriors, Poppyglow and Sableflicker. When she was six moons old, Poppyglow admitted that Sableflicker was not Linnpoppy's father - her real father was a ReefClan warrior named Tumblerush. Heartbroken and betrayed, Linnpaw ran away to CoveClan, pretended like she didn't know about the Clans, and joined as the deputy's apprentice.

## Relationships and Other

### Familial Relationships

Poppyglow - Linnpoppy was very close to her mother, but really can't even think about her any more without getting sad. She does request that her warrior name be Linnpoppy in her mother's honor, though.

Tumblerush - Linnpoppy has never met her father and doesn't want to.

Sableflicker - Linnpoppy loves her "dad" dearly. She is less than pleased with him, but overall he's the only family member she'd be willing to talk to at a Gathering or something.

### Friendships

Fennelpaw - Linnpoppy and Fennelpaw were good friends when Linnpaw was in SC.

Bagelpaw and Brookpaw - Linnpoppy eventually becomes good friends with these former kittypets, her denmates in CoveClan.

Foxpaw - It becomes clear not long after her move to CoveClan that Linnpoppy likes this gingery tom. They develop a wonderful friendship over the course of the story.

### Clanmates

Elkburn - While she acknowledges that having the deputy for a mentor is a great honor, Linnpoppy does not have any affection for her mentor.

Frecklestar - Unlike Elkburn, Linnpoppy is quite fond of her leader. Frecklestar gave Linnpaw a second chance, something she will always be grateful for.

Haretoe - Linnpoppy is honestly a little scared of the medicine cat. She doesn't know his apprentice Plumeriapaw very well either.

### Other Clans/Outsiders

Linnpoppy has nothing but bitterness toward ShoreClan and ReefClan right now. She is kind of numb to the other Clans and thus doesn't have an opinion about them.
