Eaglepine

**Eaglepine** is a dilute tortoiseshell cat with pale green eyes.

**Eaglepine** was born as **Eaglekit** to unknown parents alongside her sibling Needlekit.

## Appearance

Eaglepine is a medium-furred, dilute tortoiseshell she-cat with pale green eyes. She has downy fur along her chest and belly, leading to a plumed tail. She has a mostly mute gray coat with flashes of sandy ginger throughout her body in small clumps. The largest splash of ginger she has is on her face where it bridges halfway along her nose on the left side and crosses over her left eye. She has a white muzzle and toes, except for her left paw, which has a white foot instead.

## Personality

Eaglepine is one of few words. She prefers solitude amongst the cliffs where she hums to herself or sings aloud to no one in particular, no one but the wind. Taking things slow and steady is how she chooses to live, typically seen “lying about” or “being lazy.” She pays no mind to these depictions of her, understanding that her Clanmates’ work drives are theirs alone. Eaglepine prefers to consider herself quiet, timid, gentle, and above all else, having a strong sense of self preservation. She knows what she needs, knows full well that the stress of trying to go above and beyond just to show off is not good for her, or for anyone in her opinion. She doesn’t mind patrolling, hunting, fighting, and even extending her training for the sake of the Clan, but going the extra mile to present herself as “the best” at something is far from her priorities.

Relaxation, calm temperaments, and a steady and stable mind is her focus. The best way she could achieve this is by staying mellow, laying about when she can, and just taking the time to divulge herself into nature.

The territory isn’t all about prey and herb rich lands. It’s also about the beauty that EmberClan has to offer. Gazing out onto the moors from the cliffs fills the tortoiseshell with wonder and curiosity. Predator birds fly overhead, gliding over rabbit burrows, hoping for prey. Rabbits and rodents can be seen stirring the grasses and heathers in search of dens and food. Her Clanmates can be seen weaving through the territory, stalking prey, training, racing, living their day to day lives. On a good day, when the weather is clear, Eaglepine can even see the Clan’s camp. The hustle and bustle of her Clanmates is a wonder she enjoys watching from afar.

Apart from her solitary senses and her enjoyment of nature, Eaglepine does have one thing that would make her a tad more bearable to those with strong work ethics. Eaglepine loves to volunteer for patrols. Not because patrolling aids the Clan… but because it’s a chance to escape the confinements of camp, with its stares and whispers, and instead leaves her to be herself when she’s away from the Clan. Patrolling gives her the opportunity to explore areas of the territory where she couldn’t linger. It also gives her the opportunity to hunt her favorite prey. Despite not being a Clan favorite, in fact, one would argue its almost never on the fresh-kill pile, Eaglepine’s favorite prey to hunt and eat is fish—minnows to be exact. They make for a quick snack, their small size serves well for a momentary relief.

After doing her share of hunting, Eaglepine likes to head over to the HollowClan and EmberClan border to try her luck at the minnows near the shallows. Of course, fishing and swimming are far from an EmberClan cat’s specialty. Her fondness for this meal started when exploring the borders for the first time. She simply watched the silver fish dancing in groups near a sandy bank. While her sister and their mentors tried to move on, they soon found Eaglepine had splashed into the water, her legs in the shallows, chest soaked, jaws holding a single little fish. They luckily let her keep her catch, assuming her wonder would cease there. It did not.

No one bothers to stop her from eating her little silver treats, so long as she fed the Clan first. Though, she was certain confused and judging eyes pierced her as she ate happily at the fresh-kill pile.
