Riverstone

**Riverstone** is a gray-and-white tabby she-cat with blue eyes.

## Description

### Physical

Riverstone has to be one of the smallest cats in her family, taking on an almost kitten-like appearance with the warm fuzz that covers her dainty frame. Her legs are short but decently muscled, ending in surprisingly small yet soft-furred paws. Her tail, however, is quite impressive. Despite having medium-short fur, Riverstone's tail is surprisingly thick and a little longer than average.

Genetically, the warrior is a blue and white tabby compromised of thick, neatly patterned mackerel tabby stripes. Even Riverstone's white spotting seems to frame her perfectly, complimenting her face by wrapping around her neck and creating a blaze on the bridge of her nose. Rivernose is just barely classified as minimal in terms of white spotting, with her belly and all four paws also being splashed with snow-white.

### Personality

Compared to her solemn little brother, Riverstone is quite laid-back and is what a cat with her prefix might be seen as: a go-with-the-flow sort of gal. Nonetheless, the warrior won't tolerate being pushed around and considers herself a cat worthy of respect due to her rich lineage. As such, she likes to try to play the part by acting as a welcoming figure to outsiders. She may seem loyal, but her faithfulness honestly lies in relationships rather than just strictly her clan.

Although some might like to declare her as lazy and too-laid back with strangers, Riverstone is exceptionally intelligent and likes to use her talents when she sees best fit. She sees no point in arguments and stirring up trouble when things go smoothly when cats work together. Riverstone finds herself happiest mentoring younger cats and using herself as a role model to promote diplomacy.

## History

### Background

Riverkit was the firstborn to Mistystar and Nightsky of WillowClan. Her kithood was generally uneventful, but she did get spoiled from time to time. She was their only kit for several moons until her late apprenticeship, when they had Aspenkit and Stonekit. During those times, Riverpaw was mentored by her own mother, who had to balance mothering a litter of new kittens with training her own apprentice.

When she became a full warrior, Riverstone volunteered to mentor Stonepaw after his first mentor, Graystar, died. Unfortunately, the tom had an accident with a monster and broke his leg, causing their training to go on-hold until Stonepaw's leg could fully heal.

### Roleplay

The warrior is seen several times attempting to help train her brother. At one point, she goes hunting with a couple of apprentices in addition to her brother. Riverstone gets distracted when helping Stonepaw with his hunter's crouch, and ends up putting too much weight on his haunches and causing him pain in his formerly broken leg. She feels awful and does her best to make it up to him.

Eventually, their mother decides to leave WillowClan, and so Riverstone begins to fear for her brother. When Ripplepool tries to explain what happened, the warrior intervenes to prevent him from making it sound as if Mistystar is dead. Stonepaw is still upset, and so Riverstone desperately tries to comfort him but gets held back by Quillstar.

### Family

WIP
**Stonetooth:**

Riverstone always made sure to take extra care of her little brother, ever since he was a kit up until he was deputy of their clan. She loves him dearly, perhaps a little too much from time to time. She does feel that her bond to her younger brother holds him back occasionally, but there's no denying the intense amount of respect and love she feels for him. Riverstone takes it upon herself to lift him up whenever he's feeling down, or to eagerly help him out whenever he's hurting and...sometimes *accidentally* hurt him, but hey- she means well. There's nothing he can do to irritate her, and honestly, she can't keep secrets from him. She knows that he's ashamed of her laid-back attitude with outsiders, but...

### Love Interests

**Foxstar:**

How could she not fall for a cat so handsome, a leader who carries himself with so much confidence that one might think he owns the entire world? Riverstone always had a tendency to be a little *too* laid-back around outsiders, and so it comes as no surprise that she fell for the handsome tom. She enjoyed his charm as they met for a half-moon, and became somewhat heartbroken when he decided that his clan needed him more than she did. She cherishes the memories that she shared with Foxstar, and finds herself envious of the others that the handsome tom fawns over. Regardless, there's no eradicating the feelings she holds towards him.

## Trivia

* Upon learning that she's expecting Foxstar's kits, she'll self-exile herself out of shame, leading Stonetooth to downspiral into a sort of depression once more.
