Icefall

## Appearance & Personality:

Icefall is a white to a light grayish color. She has a few darker grey areas as well as dark gray tabby stripes. Her back stripe is also dark gray.

She is a calm she-cat that can be stubborn to the point of foolishness. She enjoys hanging out with friends and family but holds grudges very easily. When Icefall has a strong sense or feeling of something. Unlike other cats, she doesn't ignore it, but simply embraces it. She relies heavily on instinct and friendship. This poor baby is also peaceful, kind and compassionate, or at least tries to be! She can also be a pretty funny gal.

## Powers:

Icefall has a very unique power connected to her name and emotions. When she is angry or saddened, cloud forms above her and it starts to *snow?* This is only to be connected to her emotions. How is it connected to her name? Well, Ice is technically snow, and snow falls, and there we have it.

(I will try and add more later)

## Brief History:

She was born a loner to her mother, a former kittypet. Her father had been killed on a thunderpath the previous day leaving the poor pregnant she-cat to fend for herself. She was born quite easily luckily. Her mother was off hunting every chance she could get. She tried to help when she was old enough. One fatal day though, her mother and Ice were attacked by a red fox. Her mother didn't make it. Ice tried her best to live by herself, alone for many many moons. She was 10 moons old when she was caught in Shadowclan territory by some warriors. Ice had heard of the clans before and she knew their ways were honorable. Her wish had been to join them and this was her chance. She asked to be brought to their leader and so she was.

She asked to be let in to join the clan, be trained as a warrior. Luckily, she was let in and trained. She was given a warrior name, Icefall.

The median's rein was not her style and she kind of just kept low during that time. Though the Shadowclan civil war forced her to take action. She followed Hailstar along with the other rebels. She was heartbroken when her mate's death came upon her. She found it very hard to not slap everyone upside the head. In the end though, she protected her new leader's death by killing Nightwing. Icefall caught a deadly cough shortly after becoming an elder, and after refusing to get it checked, succumbed to her illness and joined the Council of Nine.

## Detailed History:

### Loner Life

Ice was her name given at birth. She was born to a rogue and a former kittypet, her mother. Her father had been killed the day before she was born. Her mother gave birth to her that night, naming her for her icy blue eyes as well as a icy winter winds. Her mother hunted every chance she could so that she could feed her one kit. Ice had to eat solid food at a young age because her mother was not able to produce enough milk. Ice almost died after refusing to eat bones and fur, she was lucky her mother force fed her. When she was old enough, Ice attempted many times to help her mother with the hunting. She was only 5 moons old though and she had no chance at catching anything.

When Ice was officially 8 moons old and able to fight, climb, hunt and survive. The day of mourn came. Ice and her mother were attacked viciously by a red fox. Ice managed to climb a tree, but her mother tried to fight it off at the trunk. Her mother died that day. Ice did her very best to live by herself, but she knew she couldn't for longer than 2 moons. When she turned ten moons, she found herself deep in Shadowclan territory.

### Shadowclan

She was found momentarily by Shadowclan warriors. She tried to act non-threatening to the best of her ability. She had heard about the clans beforehand and knew that one day she would join them, but she hadn't anticipated it would be so soon. She asked politely to be brought to the leader of the clan. She offered herself, explaining her dream and how her mother had passed. She explained that the situation wouldn't happen if she had been a trained warrior and simply wanted to learn the ways of the clan. The leader accepted her into the clan luckily and she started training. Eventually, she even became a full warrior, no whispers of her past could be heard even from the leader and deputy. She had become part of the clan now!

During The Median's rein, she found love with a Shadowclan warrior, Stormwatcher. They decided to have kits and so they did! Mintpaw and Ashpaw were born! As the median continued, she couldn't lie, she hated the way of life she was giving them. When the warrior fell, she was grateful to have her friend, Hailfall back as the deputy.

The next segment of her life was pretty peaceful, prey was prosperous and sure Thunderclan, Riverclan and Windclan were locked in a battle, but Shadowclan was doing wonderfully until the Shadowclan civil war rolled in. Graystar made a fatal decision and ended up dying because of it. When Nightwing attempted to rise to power, Icefall wasn't going to have it and went with the rebels and Hailfall. She fought hard and long. But when her mate, Stormwatcher died, she went full rage mode, at first she had been cautious not to harm her previous clanmates too hard, but now it was a matter of revenge for her. She felt like killing whoever was responsible. After the war was supposed to be over, and her friend now named Hailstar was the leader of Shadowclan. She had one final duty to serve. On the night after a gathering, Nightwing made one last final attempt to win Shadowclan's leadership. It was a low move too... Icefall had been lazily laying in the cave of camp when a nose and a shadow caught her ears and eyes. She followed it, into Hailstar's den. What she saw was not what she expected. It was Nightwing, and she was trying to kill Hailstar... Icefall rushed in, beating Nightwing to the ground, and in the end killing her. Hailstar seemed not proud of her actions but was grateful none the less. It was still a sad time although, she had lost her mate and the father of her kits.

Moons pass and moons go, she doesn't really have a conception of time much anymore and is soon to move into the Elder's den. It is sad, I know, but all cats must let go... otherwise they will never learn...

Finally after so long, Icefall has retired to the Elder's den with her best friend, Brighteyes. Let us pray to Starclan that they actually have many, many moons of peace... But sadly, recently Icefall has developed a cough. Nobody will realize until it's too late. Snakepaw, an apprentice now knows that her time is near. She feels a pull from StarClan, but if she is being completely honest, she knows it's time, and she is ready and happy for it. She's lived a good long life, and even had kits! She would be able to see Stormwatcher in StarClan, maybe even meet some of the Council of 9. It will be quite a treat, she she sees it as her time. Greencough is over taking her body, but she struggles for life, so that she can say goodbye to her clan...

### StarClan Life

Sadly, the stubborn she-cat passed away due to her cough which had actually been Greencough. She refused treatment, saying she knew it was her time. And indeed it was. When she passed away, she was invited to join the Council of Nine. The no longer broken hearted she-cat accepted after a few moments of exploring and talking with her mate, Stormwatcher. She is now apart of the Council and will serve until it is no longer her time.
