## Personality

Hawkscar is a grumpy, snappy, and easily annoyed tom from PounceClan. He has anxiety and PTSD over the great battle but he tries not to let it show. As an apprentice and young warrior he was very average and brain-washed easily, but after Winterstar (Wintertail at the time) escaped from PounceClan under his guard, he became an outcast in his clan and began to feel like a failure. He doesn't like getting close to cats out of fear of hurting them but Mistpetal was able to break through his emotionless exterior and help him to overcome his feelings of failure and depression.

## Appearance

Hawkscar is a dark gray, almost black tom. He has a dark gray-pink nose and two diagonal black stripes on his ears, forming a wing-like pattern, hence his prefix, Hawk. He had very light blue eyes, but they were scratched out by Ghostclaw during the great battle, blinding him and giving him three large scars over each eye.

## History

### During RP-

Before officially joining TWC, Hawkscar was an NPC known as 'The Guard', as 'The Guard' he made many mistakes that would affect PounceClan including letting the kidnapped deputy of SnowClan, Wintertail, escape PounceClan camp on his watch. These mistakes would stay with him forever and after being verbally scarred Rubypelt, Talonstar, and his clanmates he developed anxiety which later led to depression. He became obsessed with redeeming himself and making Talonstar proud, but unfortunately this only led to more mistakes, like making enemies with the assassin, Cinders. While he was struggling with these mental health problems, the she-cat Mistpetal started growing close to him against his will. He began to fall in love with her but was scared that she didn't like him so he didn't admit his feelings until just before the great battle. Together him and Mistpetal worked together to help him overcome his depression and despite the fact that his clan still considered him a failure, he was happy because he was with the one cat that he loved. Then everything changed when he loyally followed Talonstar and his clan to battle; the great battle. During the great battle he experienced horrors, many of his own doing. He crippled cats, blinded cats, and even killed a young member of ANTs. Finally he faced off against Ghostclaw, a member of ANTs, hoping for an easy win like with the other cats that he fought, but fate had another plan as Ghostclaw blinded Hawkscar in the heat of the battle, forcing Hawkscar to retreat. Without sight, Hawkscar was forced to wander around the volcano for days with no food or water. As he stumbled blindly through the battlegrounds he called out Mistpetal's name and a few days after the battle was over, she found him! They were reunited at last and Hawkscar finally worked up the courage to ask her to be his mate, she said yes, and they vowed to never leave each other's side again. The moons following were incredibly hard for Hawkscar to adjust, but with the help of Mistpetal, he is certain that his life is going forward in a new direction that he's proud of.

### Pre-RP

Hawkscar is the son of Buzzardclaw and an unknown tom, presumed to be a rogue cat, he had a sister but she died at birth, leaving him as the only living child of Buzzardclaw. Buzzardclaw unfortunately died of greencough when Hawkscar was no more than two moons old and his only memories of her were of her frowning and looking disappointing, which led him to believe that he wasn't good enough for her which is why she left. Hawkscar was raised by other queens but they never treated him like their own, which made him feel like an outcast among the other kits. Hawkscar was apprenticed to Foxtail, a senoir warrior of PounceClan of the time. Foxtail became a father figure to Hawkscar and treated him like his own son. Under Foxtail, Hawkscar learned many life lessons as well as the basic warrior knowledge and training. Then, when Hawkscar was three moons into his training, Foxtail was killed by a fox. Hawkscar was devastated over the loss of his mentor and was apprenticed to Rainslash. Rainslash was old though and she was ready to retire to the elder's den after Hawkscar had received his warrior name, so she only taught him the bare minimum and she taught him fast so that he could become a warrior soon. Because of this, Hawkscar was teased by the other apprentices for only knowing the basics. Hawkscar endured much suffering from his clanmates, which led him to believe that they needed to look up to him, and the only way they would look up to him was if he made Talonstar proud, so he joined PROTESTs, thus starting his obsession with doing something good for the sake of PROTESTs and PounceClan.
