## Physical Description

Clearpaw was a thick-furred, broad shouldered, long-legged, Turkish Angora with pale ice blue eyes. His fur is a pale grey that looks white.

## Personality

A headstrong tom, Clearpaw is quick to think and very sweet. Clearpaw is a very clumsy and naive tom, yet very loyal to his family and loved ones, making him quite a charmer. He is very social and friendly, having no problem socializing with other cats. He is very goofy and can be quite a prankster which gets quite annoying at times. He is very adventurous and quite a daydreamer. He is very curious of the Clan cats and not quite aware when being threatened. He is one of those cats that will rush head first into anything and would most likely give up his life in a heartbeat to save his family and loved ones.

## Skills and Weaknesses

Clearpaw is a great tree climber and fence climber, being born with long legs and broad shoulders. He does have very thick fur which helps him a lot during the cold weather, his thick fur also really helps him while swimming, like a coat it keeps the water from soaking into his skin and helps him keep warm in the freezing water.

Clearpaw is very quick to think, jumping right into conclusions and when cats question he's very stubborn and tries to make it so his conclusions are right. Being born with such pale fur does not help with hunting at all.

## Life

### Kithood

Clearpaw was born to two kittypets in a litter with his three littermates, Marsh, Mousey, and Ripple, being the only tom in his litter. He immediately felt left out, he was given the name Clear and compared to his littermates names his sounded the weirdest. His pelt was a whole lot different then his siblings. They immediately took advantage of that and started saying he didn't look like any of them. He was called stupid and dumb and he was okay with it and began acting like he was dumb and stupid and didn't have a brain.

One day, Marsh and Mousey invited him to check out the clan cats with them. Excited that he was finally part of their group he followed them. In the end they met a RiverClan apprentice named Hawkpaw. She told them about the Clans and why they left their old territory. Clear boasted he could beat Hawkpaw in a fight trying to impress his littermates. Marsh hissed and told him not to fight a crippled she-cat. Instead Marsh began bickering with Hawkpaw and in the end Mousey and Clear had to interrupt them before a fight could break out. Marsh leaped at him and they began fighting, she yelled at Clear and called him fat and ugly and also mewed that he looked nothing like his sisters and he probably wasn't even related to them. Clear was fuming and called her fat and ugly as well. This caused Marsh to panic and she began freaking out, she ran off and Mousey yelled at Clear and told him this was all his fault.

Clear ran off into the silent forest, too hurt to even respond. He came across a ShadowClan warrior named Silvermoon and she helped him by offering him advice and gave him a thrush. He only ate a little because he was still upset that his sister called him fat and he didn't want to be wide. Wandering around once more he met a she-cat named Scout, she quickly offered to let him stay at her place and he agreed.

While looking for his littermates he came across Hawkpaw once more. They talked for while until she offered the chance of him join RiverClan. He quickly told her he wasn't interested and rather be friends. Hawkpaw agreed and they became friends.

Clear was wandering around when he finally spotted his sister Mousey. They forgave each other and they decided to stay in a group together with Marsh and Ripple deciding to stick together no matter what happens with them.

One day when Clear was exploring the Silent Forest he realized someone was stalking him. There he met Strike, a rogue. Strike offered to teach Clear to be cool and Clear accepted. He changed his name to Shard and Strike began mentoring him in exchange for Clear's bandanna.

Shard came across his sister Ripple and Silvermoon padded over to the two kits offering them the chance to join ShadowClan. Ripple quickly accepts but Shard doesn't, wanting nothing to do with the Clans. This made Ripple heartbroken and Shard quickly left the scene to upset to comfort his sister.

Shard raced over to his sister Mousey and tried to impress her with his whole different attitude. Mousey was clearly upset by this and started telling him Strike was a dangerous and he shouldn't trust him. In the end Mousey won the argument and Shard agreed to never visit Strike again. Silvermoon was apparently watching them and said how proud she was of Shard being able to mend with his littermates once more. Silvermoon once again asked him if he wanted to join the Clans but he said no once more. Silvermoon said it was fine because he would always be her son. In a way Silvermoon adopted him and they began to meet in secret.

While talking to his sister Mousey, she told him she and Marsh were joining ShadowClan and offered to let him join. He agreed and was accepted into ShadowClan by the ShadowClan leader, Furstar. In ShadowClan Mousey confronted him and told him Honeykit and Ripple coated Marsh in deathberry juice. Shard began to hate Honeykit, he hated the idea of his sister struggling to survive under all the deathberry juice.

He realized he had to tell Scout he was leaving to join the Clans. He found Scout in RiverClan territory and told her he was joining ShadowClan. Scout got upset and Shard promised he would visit her all the time. She got even more upset and told him she couldn't since the Clans hated forbidden relationships. He told her he would protect her from them but she quickly replied she could take care of herself. In the end they met in RiverClan and ShadowClan territory quite often.

One day, while exploring No Clan's Land, he came across a grumpy, depressed RiverClan she-cat. She tried to scare Shard away but he was to stubborn to leave. The she-cat began muttering random stuff about some cat named Blazingpaw, she started stuffing a fish with all kinds of poisons, such as night lock leaves, deathberries, etc. Shard was still to curious to leave and watched her. When he realized what she was doing it was too late. She took a bite out of the fish dying right in front of him. Her dying words where her telling Shard her name was Flashbreeze and she would see him one day in StarClan. Horrified, Shard raced away, forever to be haunted by this moment.

### Apprenticeship

Shard was apprenticed to Ospreywings, at six moons old, and was given the name Clearpaw. Silvermoon and Mintpaw were obviously proud of him but Clearpaw couldn't find his two sisters, Marsh and Mousey.

A few days later Honeykit convinced him to take her out of camp. They went to the burnt pine were she climbed to the top only to be picked up and swooped away by and owl. Clear paw fought the owl off but he and Honeykit fell to the ground. Clear paw broke a leg and Honeykit got a concussion.

He died from bloodcough at 12 moons old.
