Willow

Willow by Darkwing

**Willow** is a character in *Tests 3: One More Chance,* roleplayed by Frostfire.

## **Appearance**

Willow is a small, lithe, soft-furred, storm-cloud-colored dark gray tabby she-cat, with a white muzzle, chest, stomach, paws, and tail-tip, and honey-colored amber-golden eyes. She has a scar on her muzzle.

## **Personality**

Willow is shy, and comfortable in solitude. It’s hard for her to talk to cats at first, since in Baxper, she really only discussed attacking others, so she sometimes says the wrong thing. She’s soft-spoken, and not very open about her opinions or what she wants. She’s anxious, and often has flashbacks from her past. She has a fear of her friends and family abandoning her or dying. She also fears she cannot protect them.

## **Relationships**

Quinn was the first cat Willow met. He was sitting by himself, so she went over and introduced herself. They chat until the first Test. Quinn accidentally eats sand, and Willow eats some as well. During the first Test, they discuss the riddle and go through the caves together. When Quinn is hurt by Pepper leaving, Willow wonders whether to bring it up. After the Test, they meet back up again, with the rest of the Snuggle Squad. When Quinn is clawed by Jason, Willow runs over and asks if he’s okay.

## **History**

### **Pre-Tests**

Willow was born in Haninga to Rico and Smoke, along with her siblings, Freddy and Molly. They were all killed in front of her eyes when she was a kit, for all refusing to join. Willow was the only one who agreed, and she was spared. Her life with the gang was brutal - she was treated harshly, and forced to kill. She also saw several cats’ souls taken from them. On a night when her gang was badly defeated, she snuck off, and went beyond the Districts. She found a nice refugee group, but then the Strike came, and most of them died. When Pilate asked her to join the Tests, she agreed, because her old life had brought her so much grief and pain.
