She's friendly to everyone just about, always wanting to meet new cats. She’s very adventurous, always taking risks and exploring everything she can. She’s stubborn and won’t back down from an argument easily. She’s often insecure about her, always worrying about what others think of her.

## Life

### Kithood

- Her mom only had a litter of one, which she died giving birth to. Irisleap does not remember her mother. (Her mother doesn't exist) Her father whoever he was disappeared before she was born. (He never existed either haha) She grew up living the normal life that kits usually have until she became an apprentice.

### Apprenticeship

- She trained to become a warrior and yeah-

### Adulthood

- Irisleap met her first friend, Nightpaw, about 2-3 moons after she became a warrior. She taught Nightpaw how to fish and showed her some other stuff.

- Some things happened that I forgot-

- A bit after that she and Nightpaw found a dead fox randomly in the woods with no signs of what could've killed it. Nightpaw started panicking which caused Irisleap to panic and they both ended up running back to camp.

- She met a few more cats.

- A few moons later, her and Patchpaw heard a yowl in the woods from Duskfall and they ran to investigate and discovered a badger trying to attack Duskfall. She and Patchpaw leaped at the badger and got it to let go of Duskfall only for it to throw Patchpaw of it. Irisleap, seeing what happened, tried to run over to Patchpaw to make sure she was ok only for the badger to latch onto her leg, breaking it with its teeth. Irisleap started yowling, loud enough for the whole territory to hear. Patchpaw stood up again and leaped at the badger, attempting to get it to let go of Irisleap's leg, but it just threw her off again- Irisleap turned around and started clawing at the badger until it finally decided to let go her leg. She dropped to the ground and hissed at it and clawed at it once more and the badger, tired of being clawed at by everyone, retreated. Irisleap went to check on Patchpaw, asking if she was ok. Patchpaw looked up and pointed at a bruise on her leg then asked Irisleap if she was ok. Irisleap nodded then turned around and noticed Duskfall laying on the ground with her throat bleeding. She looked at Duskfall and then at Patchpaw and told that Patchpaw that she was going to get Honeydawn, since she couldn't carry both of them back to camp. She limped all the way to camp and got Honeydawn. It turns out Patchpaw ended up dragging Duskfall back to camp herself right when Irisleap was about to lead Honeydawn to them. Honeydawn applied herbs to their wounds with Patchpaw's help.

- A moon or so after that, Irisleap and Patchpaw, who was Patchbriar by then, decided to go to the river and go fishing. Patchbriar went over to the riverbank and Irisleap decided to hop onto a branch to catch some fish that liked to jump out of the river. Irisleap walked along the branch only for it to cracking. Realizing that she had made a bad decision, she started to back up only for the branch to crack more, causing her to slip off the branch and start dangling from it, only hanging onto it by her claws. Patchbriar, realizing what was happening, ran over and told her to just drop into the river and swim back to shore. Irisleap, following Patchbriar's advice, did exactly that and the branch suddenly broke and fell onto her. Irisleap tried to get out, but ended up drowning. Patchbriar desperately tried to get the branch off of Irisleap, but it wasn't budging. Patchbriar ended up pulling Irisleap out from under the branch and dragged her out to shore. Patchbriar realized she was unconscious and dragged her back to camp. When they arrived, Honeydawn rushed over and started pumping water out of Irisleap. Irisleap woke up, coughing up water not knowing where she was or who she was. Patchbriar told Irisleap that it wasn't the time for joking, but knowing deep down she wasn't joking. Honeydawn told Patchbriar that the cold water had affected her brain, causing her to lose her memories. A few days went by and Irisleap still wasn't remembering who she was. She was having the same memory repeat over and over in her head, a memory of her drowning. She woke up in the medicine cat den one night, gasping for air because she had a dream that she was drowning. She managed to calm her breathing down and look around and noticed Puddlepaw laying in the den. To her, he seemed to be having a nightmare, but she didn't know what of. She asked him if he was ok and he nodded. They went on having some thoughts and complications until they ended up having a conversation and she got to know him more.

- Half a moon later(?) Irisleap was sitting in camp eating a trout, enjoying the taste of it. Patchbriar was just waking up and decided to walk outside of the warrior cat den, thinking no one was awake. Patchbriar then realized Irisleap was still awake and they talked for a bit. Irisleap suddenly called Patchbriar "Patchy" and Patchbriar asked Irisleap to repeat and she did, thinking that she might've did something wrong. Patchbriar assured her that she did nothing wrong and that she was starting to remember who she was. Irisleap was overjoyed. Patchbriar told Irisleap a tactic she could use to remember more things, which was thinking of rain to wash away that darkness. Irisleap did exactly that and it worked! They continued to talk as the night went on, helping Irisleap remember more.
