## Backstory/Life

Robinpaw grew up with no parents and no siblings. His parents were killed by gang cats. Even though he grew up with no family, he was usually very happy and sweet. As he grew, he was picked on by the other kits. This caused him to be slightly rude and annoyed at times but he tried his best to be positive.

At the age of five moons, he met Tinybrook. He thought she was very nice and caring, and even started to become friends with her. When he was about to turn six moons Tinybrook asked him to become her apprentice when he was six moons, and he agreed. She no longer had an apprentice because Rosyfreckle left to join the society. Robinpaw agreed and he became GladeClan's medicine cat apprentice when he was six moons old.

A few days later after barely getting trained, Tinybrook was killed by a gang cat, Hiddenshadow. This happened when they were ambushed by some Glaring Eyes members on the way to camp from the mooncavern. They were at the mooncavern so Halfstar could get her lives. Robinpaw broke down after the death of Tinybrook. After her death, he started to become more rude and bitter. Over time, people noticed the difference of Robinpaw and Tinybrook, and they tried to compare the two. Some expected him to be like his mentor who he had for a short time. They expected him to be sweet, happy, and caring like her. This put Robinpaw under pressure and he became exactly like he didn't want. He became mean, more rude than before, very confident, and at times aggressive. This all happened while he was six moons old.

While he was six moons, shortly after the death of Tinybrook, out of fear for his future he asked Halfstar to train him how to fight. He wanted to learn how to fight and learn more fighting skills than your average medicine cat so he could protect himself and those he cares about in the future. She told him she would teach him how to fight when he became six and half moons. So Robinpaw waited and when he was six and a half moons, nothing happened. So when he was seven moons old he decided to confront Halfstar  about how she hasn't taught him how to fight yet. Halfstar then told him that the reason why she hasn't taught him was because she was expecting kits. Even though this was a reasonable reason, he was furious. He was upset because he thought she was just making excuses and he was upset because he was not told sooner.

Soon after, while the tensions between the The Society and the clans rose, DustClan and GladeClan made a deal. Part of the deal was that Olivebranch would come over to train him. This was because Robinpaw was not being trained since he hated Rosyfreckle and refused to be trained by her. Olivebranch and him started to become really close, he was one of Robinpaw's first friends. His only other friends at the time were Woollypelt and Halfstar.

As he was being trained, SeaClan was created. SeaClan was a temporary merge of DustClan and ReedClan. Olivebranch was told to go to SeaClan, and so he did. In the process, Robinpaw was left alone without being fully trained. He was once again, furious and angry at almost everyone and the world. Olivebranch leaving also made him hate him. This also caused him to not want to go to any of the medicine cat meetings since he would see Olivebranch there.

Soon after, he finally started being trained by Halfstar for fighting since she recently had her kits. This made him slightly happier. Around the same time, he became friends with a new apprentice named Violetpaw. He felt like he had to look after Violetpaw as an older sibling of sorts because he viewed him as someone who was helpless. In the process, he met Juniperpaw. Juniperpaw was a kit of Olivebranch and Rosyfreckle, who at the time were one of the two cats he hated the most. Even though he hates Juniperpaw's parents, he realized he did not hate her.

He also finds her intriguing and somewhat of a crybaby. She really confuses him. Normally when Robinpaw screams and insults other cats, they become angry and they insult him. But he found out Juniperpaw was different. Instead of getting angry, she became upset and started to cry. This confused Robinpaw and made him interested in her because she gave him a reaction he was not used to.

Soon after, a kit named Frecklekit died. Frecklekit was a kit of Halfstar and Mudfoot. While Frecklekit was in the process of dying, Robinpaw ran over. Robinpaw did not know how to help Frecklekit since he was still not completely trained at the time. So he could only stand there and watch as the kit died. Right after he died, Robinpaw was able to see the StarClan version of Frecklekit. He had a conversation with him and he told Frecklekit to go to his new home, which was StarClan. After telling Robinpaw to tell his parents that he will be going, Frecklekit left to StarClan. Robinpaw told Mudfoot and Halfstar what Frecklekit said, then he left to his den. Violetpaw was at his den at the time. Once Robinpaw got to his den, he started to break down. This was the first time Violetpaw has ever seen him vulnerable. While breaking down, he told Violetpaw that the death of Frecklekit was all his fault. Violetpaw  started to comfort him. While comforting him, Juniperpaw walked into the den. By now, Juniperpaw's visits became frequent.

Violetpaw fell asleep a few minutes after Juniperpaw arrived. This gave Robinpaw and Juniperpaw time to talk. While talking, Juniperpaw completely calmed him down. Before Juniperpaw walked in, Violetpaw also made him stop breaking down but soon after he continued to. Juniperpaw made him feel safer and happier as they talked. While talking, Juniperpaw called Robinpaw brave, independent, and someone who's interesting to talk to. This made Robinpaw feel much better since he was only used to getting compliments from Woollypelt, Violetpaw, and occasionally Halfstar. Juniperpaw while talking, tried to make Robinpaw agree to being the best medicine cat he could be. He agreed to this promise. This conversation also lead to Robinpaw letting Juniperpaw stay in his den because it was crowded in the apprentices' den. The only rule Robinpaw gave was that Juniperpaw had to go back to the apprentices' den if his den was crowded.

While gathering for herbs, Robinpaw noticed something very concerning. He saw that the catmint sources in GladeClan were dug up. The only thing left behind was the smell of ReedClan cats. Even though ReedClan did not dig the catmint up, The Glinting Claws found a way to leave their scent behind. This made Robinpaw very worried. He rushed to camp to put his freshly gathered herbs in the herb storage. Robinpaw was not extremely worried about the catmint situation since catmint is something he gathers all the time so he has plenty of it to use. But Robinpaw knows that herbs do expire and they can always get whitecough or greencough cases, so this made him worried for the future. Soon after realizing this, he realized his close friend Juniperpaw had greencough. He quickly used his catmint on her to cure her. But before she was healed, she accidentally gave Violetpaw greencough. Violetpaw then gave greencough to Sootpaw. And sooner or later, the catmint supply in GladeClan was really low. By now, Robinpaw already talked to Halfstar and told her the situation. He then told her that ReedClan stole their catmint and even showed her one of the catmint sources. He suggested that they steal ReedClan's catmint but she did not agree. This made Robinpaw furious. They started arguing with each other then they started training. This became the new normal with Robinpaw and Halfstar, argue then settle their differences by practicing fighting.

Robinpaw recently became friends with Pridekit. Pridekit is a rude kit he met and they both shared a common interest. They both enjoyed making fun of others. They met because Robinpaw saw Pridekit make fun of an apprentice named Sneezepaw. This made Robinpaw interested and he started to help Pridekit bully the apprentice. This formed a friendship between Pridekit and Robinpaw.

A few days after, he was feeling kind of upset but he was also excited. He was upset because he started to believe Tinybrook was ignoring him even though in reality, she wasn't. Tinybrook at the time was inside of Tinypaw. He was excited because he was still training with Halfstar. That day, he saw one of his closest friends, Woollypelt. This cheared him up a little. After talking for a bit they started sparring in the middle of camp because Robinpaw wanted to show off his skills. After a short time they decided to leave camp. On the way towards the training area, Robinpaw decided to pull a surprise attack on Woollypelt. Before they even reached the training area, Robinpaw turned around and surprised Woollypelt . This was proven very effective and it made Woollypelt very proud of him. This sparring match went on for quite some time before they both got tired and decided to talk. Robinpaw then told Woollypelt his worries about being ignored by Tinybrook. He also told Woollypelt that the entire clan hated him, with a few exceptions. Woollypelt told Robinpaw that both things he said were wrong. He told him that the clan loves him and that he is not getting ignored by Tinybrook. More importantly, Woollypelt told Robinpaw that he and Halfstar love him. This meant a lot to Robinpaw since he has always viewed Woollypelt as a father figure. And he has also always seen Halfstar as a close friend and a type of mother figure. Even though Woollypelt told Robinpaw these things, he still believed that most of the clan hated him. But Woollypelt's words really made him feel better.

Juniperpaw, Violetpaw, and Sootpaw were all cured of their sickness. They were only cured because of Robinpaw treating them with catmint and other types of herbs. This caused the once full supply of catmint in the herb storage to become very small. This worried Robinpaw so he talked to Halfstar once more. Once again, they argued about it and did not agree on anything. Suddenly with a sudden outburst, Robinpaw asked Halfstar if she wanted to train and she agreed. They both ran out of camp and like Woollypelt, he surprised attacked her the same exact way. This was once again proven very successful. And Halfstar was very proud of him. Juniperpaw showed up and came to a very interesting scene. Halfstar was holding Robinpaw like a child and this made him very embarrassed when he saw Juniperpaw. They both became slightly flustered and amused. A couple minutes after, Pinepaw showed up. By now, Robinpaw was put down. While Robinpaw was talking to Halfstar, Pinepaw walked over to Juniperpaw and began to talk to her. This made Robinpaw feel something he didn't really feel up until then, jealousy. Pinepaw was a tom who was around Robinpaw's and Juniperpaw's age, and he was a tom Robinpaw did not know or trust. This made Robinpaw become jealous over Pinepaw and he also became very protective over Juniperpaw. He stopped his conversation with Halfstar and had a sudden outburst. He screamed at Pinepaw and told him to go away, and so he did. Following Pinepaw was Juniperpaw. This sudden outburst made Halfstar very concerned about him but he ignored her concerns. While Pinepaw and Juniperpaw were gone, he asked Halfstar if what Woollypelt said was true. He asked her if she loved him, and she said yes.

Juniperpaw and Robinpaw then went to his den and she told him that his outburst scared her. This worried Robinpaw since he didn't mean to scare her and this made him upset. He then said sorry and she accepted his apology. Juniperpaw then made jokes about Halfstar picking Robinpaw up. She then started picking him up and then he picked her up. While Robinpaw lifted Juniperpaw up, she turned red. This confused Robinpaw and set her down after she asked him a couple times. Juniperpaw was clearly flustered and Robinpaw did not understand why.

Robinpaw one day after worrying about the lack of catmint situation decided he would finally ask for the help of Olivebranch. So he got Woollypelt to be his escort and he told him the plan. Then he went to Halfstar to tell her that they were goin go DustClan territory to speak to Olivebranch. After the conversation ended, Robinpaw and Woollypelt left the clan and then went to DustClan territory. When they finally saw Olivebranch, Robinpaw was filled with rage. It took all he had to not scream at him. After talking for a bit, Olivebranch took Robinpaw and Woollypelt to show them where the catmint was in the Twolegplace. Once Robinpaw was shown where the catmint grew, he gathered as much as possible. Right after, he thanked Olivebranch for helping GladeClan. He didn't feel comfortable saying he needed Olivebranch's help because he still hated him, which he made clear. After that, Woollypelt lead Robinpaw back to GladeClan camp.

Once Robinpaw went to his den, he saw Juniperpaw. They both talked for a while. They eventually started to talk about how they thought of each other. Juniperpaw started off by telling him how much she liked him. Then Robinpaw told her that he cared about her the same way. Up until this point, Robinpaw did not know what romantic love felt like. Even after confessing, he still doesn't completely understand it. Robinpaw only has named his newish feelings towards Juniperpaw as a special type of care. After talking for a while, Juniperpaw had to go.

Soon after Juniperpaw left his den, Rosyfreckle confronted him. At this point, he tolerated Rosyfreckle but he still disliked her. Rosyfreckle and Robinpaw went on a walk to talk in private. Rosyfreckle then told Robinpaw that she knows about him and Juniperpaw, and she even supported it. After some questions, Rosyfreckle told Robinpaw about her relationship with Olivebranch. Soon after talking a little longer, they both went back to camp.

About a week after, Robinpaw had a fever. One day he was in his nest, sick and had a bad headache. Juniperpaw came in to visit him and suddenly got really worried. She thought he was in serious danger. After telling Juniperpaw a bunch of times that he was okay, she finally believed him but was still worried. They talked for a couple of hours. They eventually started talking about how they felt for each other, again. Robinpaw pushed Juniperpaw to tell him how she feels about him and explain it. After some pushing, she finally did it. Juniperpaw told Robinpaw that she loved him which made him extremely confused. Robinpaw only thought love could only be felt by family members because of what Woollypelt said, but he misunderstood him. Juniperpaw then explained what love really was and it made Robinpaw pretty happy. He finally realized that he loved her.

A week or two went by and it was time for the GladeClan and The Society battle. Before leaving, Robinpaw got Violetpaw to help him and to help protect him. He also knew that Violetpaw was pretty bad at fighting and he didn't want him to get hurt. During the battle, Robinpaw took care of the injured. Once the battle ended, Robinpaw ran over to the rest after hearing the cheers of the GladeClan cats. When he arrived he saw all the corpses from the battle, including Sun's corpse. He ran over to Ashmoon to help heal his wounds. After talking for a little bit, Woollypelt and Halfstar showed up. After talking with all of them, Ashmoon hugged all three of them.

Soon after the battle, Robinpaw went to Halfstar to talk to her about his relationship with Juniperpaw. He wanted to tell her so she did not find out from rumors and because she was always a motherly figure towards him. She was not the happiest when she was told but she did not yell at him. She gave Robinpaw a deal. If Robinpaw did not expose her to the other medicine cats about kits being made apprentices at five moons, he could still be with Juniperpaw. He was also allowed to keep his position. She also made Robinpaw stay in his den for the next two days because she knew that was the only punishment he would agree with. Robinpaw agreed to Halfstar's deal. After the deal was made, Robinpaw accidentally called Halfstar mom. Halfstar started to cry because he reminded her of her kit that died. Once she calmed down a little she adopted Robinpaw. Robinpaw became Halfstar's son and he was very happy about their new relationship.

After the conversation with Halfstar, Robinpaw went over to Woollypelt. Robinpaw told him about his relationship with Juniperpaw because he has always seen Woollypelt as a father figure. Woollypelt was both not upset and not happy about the news, he was pretty neutral about it. He just wanted Robinpaw to be careful. Woollypelt got upset when Robinpaw told him about the deal he made with his new mom, Halfstar. Woollypelt became really angry because he saw it as Halfstar blackmailing Robinpaw to cover up his mistakes. In reality, both Robinpaw and Halfstar blackmailed each other. Robinpaw went into Halfstar's den fully prepared to use all the things he knew about her against her and blackmail her. After the conversation ended, Woollypelt left his den.

A couple days later, Rosyfreckle went into Robinpaw's den. When she went in, Robinpaw was very confused about a couple herbs. Rosyfreckle taught Robinpaw all the herbs he did not know. After the lesson they talked a little more and then Rosyfreckle left.

Right after the lesson with Rosyfreckle, Halfstar called for a clan meeting. During the meeting, Halfstar made Violetpaw and Tinypaw into warriors. Violetpaw was named Violetskies and Tinypaw was named Tinycloud. Robinpaw was both happy for Violetskies and very jealous of him. He was jealous of Violetskies because Violetskies became an apprentice after Robinpaw. And even though Violetskies became an apprentice after Robinpaw, he got his name first. Robinpaw is happy for Violetskies because he knows it was something he has always wanted, and he knows he deserves it. Robinpaw went back to his den after the meeting, wondering when he would get his name. He assumed it would be soon because he knows all the herbs, he just lacks some experience.

After some time and after many lessons with Rosyfreckle, Robinpaw got his medicine cat name and became a full on medicine cat. His name became Robinthorn. It was most likely named after his thorn-like personality.
