Marshflower

**Marshflower** is a lilac she-cat with yellow eyes, dappled with faint beige stripes on her face and a slightly darker stripe along her spine and tail. She is very tall and lithe, with long legs and a long tail, but her delicate features hide the wiry strength in her limbs.

She was born as Marshkit along with her brothers Bluekit and Raggedkit. Quite a while later he gains two younger siblings, Fennelkit and Nimblekit.

Within the span of two moons after Fennelkit and Nimblekit's births, Marshflower's parents as well as her brother Bluecloud passed away, leading to her becoming a sort of parent to her younger siblings alongside her remaining brother Raggedstar.

## History

June 4, 2015 3:34 PM

Marshflower wakes in a panic to find everyone in the warriors’ den already gone. Concerned that she has overslept, she goes to find her apprentice Fennelpaw in her den. She mentions taking a tour of the territory and hunting, which Fennelpaw agrees to. Giving her the option, Fennelpaw decides she’d like to go to the WillowClan border first.

Fennelpaw asks about a scent she has caught, and Marshflower confirms it to be WillowClan. Fennelpaw asks her if WillowClan really swims, and Marshflower tells her that she has seen it with her own eyes, and that Fennelpaw will see it before her apprenticeship is over. When Fennelpaw suggests they learn to fish, Marshflower is adamantly against it, not wanting to smell like WillowClan cats.

They move away from the border, and Fennelpaw stops to tell Marshflower that she is picking up on another scent. Marshflower tells her to think about what is on the fresh-kill pile, and Fennelpaw correctly guesses mouse. Marshflower warns her to keep her tail from twitching, as it can interfere with her hunting.

Marshflower suggests they go after a real target, and tells Fennelpaw to try finding the mouse she had caught scent of before. She watches as the apprentice tracks and eventually finds the mouse, commending her for her catch before agreeing they should return to camp.

Marshflower is on a hunting patrol when Trenchpaw runs ahead. Mistakenly, he crosses the RavenClan border, and Marshflower comes upon the two patrols facing off against one another. When it breaks off into a fight, she lunges at Fawnrush, hoping to catch her across the face. She manages it, but unintentionally leaves herself open and receives scratches across her ribcage in response.

When Ashensky eventually calls a retreat Marshflower goes to help Sedgeheart, walking beside him as they head home.
