Brokenpetal

"I wish I could believe that. But I don't. If I lose a cat- whether they die of injuries, sickness, or anything of the like- it's on me. If a queen died in kitting, and I was there- if I couldn't save them- it would be /my fault/. Their mate would hate me. I can't deal with that, Maplestar." - Brokenpetal to Maplestar, 8/8/21

## Physical Description and Personality Description

☆ - - - ☆

Description of her looks - Brokenpetal is a small cat all around, with medium-length fur. She has dark chocolate-colored fur, with a cream underbelly, chest, paws, and ear-tips. She has many broken-up, shattered-looking darker markings, although this is not the only reason for her prefix. Brokenpetal is paralyzed in her hind legs, after an accident that occurred when she was a young kit, leaving a large scar across her back. Due to this, Brokenpetal drags herself around on her front legs, leaving them very strong and bulky. She is also on the chubby side, but she doesn’t care. Brokenpetal has round, honey-yellow eyes.

Personality Description: Brokenpetal is sweet as honey. She is a fast learner, and tends to use advanced, large words as an attempt to impress other cats. Brokenpetal hates it when cats stare at her limp hind legs, but doesn’t say anything to them about it. She’s too nervous that she’ll offend them. So, instead of telling them her face is on her head, Brokenpetal will do whatever it takes to impress them. Whether it be showing them her collection of pretty things ( which is mostly made up of flowers ), or telling them random facts, like if that bee is a bumblebee or a honeybee. Brokenpetal wants cats to think she’s smart. She wants their attention, and will openly seek it out. - traits: Sweet/kind (+), intelligent/fast learner (+), anxious (-), people-pleaser (=), and attention-seeker (-).

### Kithood:

Brokenpetal was created at four moons old. She was found outside of CoveClan's camp by Toadglow, who promptly adopted her.

Brokenpetal, Brokenkit at the time, began to explore camp. The first cat she met was Maplestar, who remarked silently that Brokenkit's name was cruel when matched to her appearance. Maplestar showed her the medicine den, which instantaneously mesmerized Brokenkit.

Brokenkit met Tawnykit.

Brokenkit met Badgerkit.

Brokenkit asked Toadglow and Maplestar how she would become a warrior apprentice, due to being paralyzed. Maplestar agreed to her becoming the next medicine apprentice.

At eight moons old, Brokenkit still hadn't become an apprentice. She worried this was because Maplestar didn't like her, and confided in Toadglow. Toadglow told her that she would talk to Maplestar.

### Apprenticeship:

Maplestar apprenticed Brokenkit to Sagesong when she was eight moons old, under the name of Brokenpaw.

Sagesong brought Brokenpaw to the Moon[something], but had to carry her over the rocks. Brokenpaw was humiliated by this.

Brokenpaw told Toadglow about how she felt useful now that she was an apprentice. Toadglow told her that she didn't have to be useful, however Brokenpaw countered this with the fact that if she didn't pull her own weight, she was just another mouth to feed. Her mother responded with the fact that elders didn't feed the clan, but Brokenpaw argued that they had served their purpose as great warriors in the past. Toadglow eventually caved, but told Brokenpaw she'd punch anyone if they looked down on her. They then talked about Brokenpaw's full name, which ended in the medicine apprentice hoping for the name "Brokenglow", after her mother.

Brokenpaw talked to Lyretuft, who asked her how she was enjoying being a medicine apprentice. Brokenpaw responded that she liked it, because learning about the herbs interested her. The queen replied that it was good she liked it, but Brokenpaw shrugged and pointed out she really wouldn't have any other choice.

Sagesong snapped at Brokenpaw after waking from a nap. Brokenpaw was afraid of Sagesong for basically the rest of their interaction. The elder medicine cat decided to teach Brokenpaw about kitting.

Brokenpaw interacted with Maplestar. It was uneventful.

Tawnypaw and Brokenpaw conversated over a dead squirrel Tawnypaw had caught.

Brokenpaw was unsure if she was working hard enough; Sagesong assured her that she was doing well, but Brokenpaw didn't know how to respond. The medicine cat told her that she'd need it.

### Medicine Cat:

Sagesong gave Brokenpaw the name of Brokenpetal. They thanked her for not being difficult.

Brokenpetal told Toadglow about getting her name. Toadglow, who was sleep-deprived and exhausted, asked if she had missed her warrior ceremony. The medicien cat promptly reminded her mother that she was a medicine cat, and had been a medicine apprentice. After a few moments of silence, the deputy broke the news to her daughter that she was now mates with Maplestar.

Brokenpetal interacted with Badgersnow.

Maplestar, in a panic, came to Brokenpetal and confided in the medicine cat that she believed bloom were expecting kits. Brokenpetal flinched, but checked the leader out anyways. Seemingly in defeat, the paralyzed molly confirmed that Maplestar was carrying kits. This caused Brokenpetal to worry about Toadglow not loving her anymore. She then had a disagreement with Maplestar about being prepared for Leaf-Bare versus doing her best.

The Gaemallow kits came. Brokenpetal helped deliver them.

Brokenpetal interacted with Ruekit, Maplestar and Toadglow's other adopted daughter. Ruekit 'attacked' Brokenpetal.

Brokenpetal doesn't like kits anymore :')

Brokenpetal and Toadglow got into a fight that ended in tears.
