## **Overview**

Stormborn is a former Healer of BloodClan who formerly served under her sister **Mimosa** and **Blair**, as well as formally served under Blair as a Commander of BloodClan.

### **Appearance**

Stormborn is a black and silver tuxedo she-cat with white markings on her ears, cheeks, and muzzle. When compared to the rest of her siblings, she is skinnier and smaller, with a short (but not stubby) tail. Her eyes are a deep, rich blood orange with an inky black gradient that her pupils seemingly blend into.

### **Personality**

Stormborn is a very confident and strong-willed young cat, more so than all of her siblings. This amount of confidence has sometimes come off as being very arrogant and callous towards others. She rarely follows what others tell her to do, and despite her over-confidence, she can still be very self-conscious when in private.

## **History**

### **Early Life**

Stormborn was born alongside her nine other siblings to the then BloodClan leader **Rift** and her mate **Stanley** during the battle with Stormclan. After the battle, she and her siblings were escorted back to BloodClan.

#### **The Sickness**

Stormborn was one of four of Rift's kits who fell ill with a mysterious disease just before she became an apprentice. Plagued with fatigue, headache, and other symptoms of the disease, she subsequently spent most of her time in the Healer's den around **Eggs**. Like the rest of her siblings, she made a full recovery soon after, and, after briefly speaking to Eggs about the herbs she used, was named her Healer Apprentice.

### **Healer Apprentice Days**

Stormborn was a quick study, taking to being a Healer Apprentice very seriously. She was incredibly prideful of her new position, sticking up for herself against others in BloodClan who did not agree with the need for a Healer.

#### **Death of Rift**

After some time, Rift started to become increasingly ill. While Stormborn and Eggs tried their hardest, Rift ultimately died. Stormborn was there for her death, and was one of the last of her siblings to say goodbye to Rift. Distraught over her mother's death, Stormborn pushed those feelings down, knowing the clan would need her during the transitional period from Rift to Blair. She also feared for the mentality of her father, who took Rift's death very hard. Soon after, Eggs stepped down as Healer, and Stormborn took her place as the new Healer of BloodClan.

### **Commander Stormy**

Sometime later, Blair called a meeting. Stormborn attended the meeting, sitting near the front of the crowd with the rest of the senior warriors. It was at this meeting that Blair announced that the role of Healer would be abolished. In its place, Stormborn would now be a Commander alongside **Breathless** and Stanley, a sort of senior warrior within the clan. She would continue to specialize in the field of herbs, but now teach it to many, instead of one. She also later witnessed the fight between Blair and Breathless, and Blair's brutal execution of Breathless at the conclusion of the fight.

### **Back to Healing**

Blair eventually died after causing a cave-in on WindClan territory, and command of BloodClan passed to her sister, Mimosa. Mimosa then reinstated the position of loyal warriors, abolishing the position of Commander. She then visited Stormborn, and asked her if she wanted to become BloodClan's healer again, and Stormborn agreed to it. Thus, she became Healer again.

#### **RiverClan Relations**

Soon enough after her sister became leader, Mimosa began to entertain a relationship with **Moraystar**, RiverClan's leader. Stormborn simply ignored it, knowing it wasn't her place on that matter, and stuck to her work. Mimosa and Moraystar's relationship would eventually result in children, Stormborn's nephews and nieces (which would include her first apprentice, **Cider**). The relationship would also see the intervention of Mimosa when Moraystar was on his curse of hallucinations. Stormborn did not accompany her sister and **Dino** when they went to confront Moraystar, staying behind to watch the clan.

#### **Living Nightmares**

Stormborn soon welcomed home her sister and most of her children (as some were too similar looking to Moraystar to remain with Mimosa). Things then got weird. The Clan leaders (barring Mimosa and **Emberteller**) started acting strangely, far more violent than ever before. Minorly worried something could go wrong, Stormborn began looking into getting an apprentice, as well as gathering extra herbs. Her precaution was worth the effort, as SkyClan would attack BloodClan soon enough. BloodClan won, as SkyClan was already weak and injured from their previous battle with RiverClan. Things went back to normal soon after, and Stormborn took on her niece, Cider, as her first apprentice.

After many moons of training Cider to be the best Healer she can be, Stormborn decided it was time for her to move on from her life as a Healer. While sad to do so, she found solace in her mate, **Shorsey**, who supported her decision. Stormborn made her announcement some time later, and moved from the Healer's den immediately after.
