Firepaw (BC)

**Note! You may be looking for Firepaw (SC), a former WillowClan apprentice.**

**Firepaw (BC)** is owned by **Whiskers**

**Firepaw** is a red and white tabby tom.

## Description

### Physical

In his youth, the kitten looked like nothing more than a furball with a pair of white legs. Eventually, he grew into the thick, tufted long fur that covered his body, and now carries an almost lion-like appearance with his impressive ruff around his neck. His fur is fire-red in color and laced in thin, semi-straight mackerel tabby stripes of a darker shade. The tom has a high concentration of white spotting that frames his body well, found mostly on his chest, belly, paws, and face.

His ancestry provided him with an impressive set of genes that allowed Firepaw to grow slightly taller than most of the toms within his clan. His thick fur only adds to his height, but it also covers his powerful frame, which is layered in trained muscle. He is significantly stronger than his older brother.

### Personality

Mischief- Firepaw is nothing but a bundle of mischief. Due to his brother's rank as deputy of the clan, the tom believes that he can get away with just about anything, all it takes is a little convincing on his part. He can be relatively silver-tongued and is pretty good at coming up with an excuse to get himself out of a sticky situation. It's not so much that he's coward- he just has many, many other *better* things to do, like explore or pester some other cat.

Like his sibling, the tom can be seen as charming because of his "badboy" personality. He has a sickening love for exploration and adventure into the unknown, a trait considered reckless and foolish by the more experienced warriors. Firepaw is enthusiastic when it comes to going on his merry way and poking his nose into more trouble- he likes to live his life on the edge. Otherwise, life simply isn't worth living.

## History

### Background

Firekit was born to an older queen, and the birth cost her her own life. His father was a cat of another clan, leaving him essentially parentless. However, his older brother, Cloudwatcher, was his last living relative, so the tom took it upon himself to raise his baby brother.

### Roleplay

Firekit gets himself into plenty mischief with his partner-in-crime, Hawkkit. The pair sneak put of camp to disrupt a mentor and apprentice that are training. Shadowchaser, Morningglade, and Ripplepool arrive with the cure, and so the kits try to take them as hostage.

Several playfights later, Firekit becomes an apprentice with Cedarleaf as his mentor.

### Friends

**Hawkkit:**

In the "great" mind of Firepaw, Hawkkit is probably the only she-cat in the world that isn't *completely* disgusting (because cooties). He likes to drag her along to get into mischief and possibly pin everything on her whenever they get caught. But nonetheless, she's his buddy, his side-kick when it comes to poking his nose where it doesn't belong. Firepaw wouldn't know what to do without his companion. Honestly, he'd be quite bored without her. He hopes they can continue to be best friends until the end of time, perhaps even become a leader-deputy duo someday.
