Nutmegpaw

***Spoiler warning:** Plot and/or ending details follow.* *"...."*
**Nutmegpaw** is a red tabby molly with swirl-like stripes, yellow eyes, and a tattered, ragged sock she wears on her front left leg.
**Nutmegpaw** was born to Kylie and Sebastian alongside her siblings Cotton, Jake, and Andy as a kittypet. After a house-fire claimed the lives of her family, Nutmegpaw, then called Achyls, fled into the mountain territory beyond the Lambent Enclaves where she was gravely wounded by a wolf. She survived the encounter, and went on to witness Sharpsun's death at the paws of Decayingbelladonna when the latter force-fed him poison. She later met Petalpaw, who hid her in Silkstar's Fall while she went on to unveil the truth of the murder. One moon later, Petalpaw is implied to have retrieved her, and she was accepted into the clan, becoming Nutmegpaw. She has served under Dawnstar's reign.

### Interests

*Likes*

**Updated:**

She loves the trees in the forest sooo much. Seeing seasons pass from her home was always an incredible pastime. She also enjoyed hearing of stories her kin told her while her housefolk hung out by the fire to keep warm. It was always a joy being cozily next to her littermates as the night grew bitter, so laying next to cats tend to give her comfort.

**Former:**

Leaves, trees, the river, rabbits, mice, crows, birds, bread, and her stocking

*Dislikes*

**Updated:**

Nutmegpaw isn’t the hugest fan of dirt, bugs, mud, the whole shebang. It’s not her thing. Nor is rain, it scares the ever-living crap out of her. A lot of the time she can’t muster the courage to be out in the rain as she’s too afraid she’ll grow so cold that she’ll become sick and die. Point blank. Snow also sucks.

**Former:**

Mud, dirt, worms, bugs, and hard rocks

## Skills/Faults

*Skills*

**Updated:**

The Manx is quite good at climbing, and can jump really high distances. There's also the fun fact that she can hear really well. She’s pretty kind, and tends to attract positive attention as well. Nutmegpaw also is really resourceful and will use her surroundings as an advantage. She is also very light, making tree travel a very good way for her to get around. Being light has its perks, but her raw strength is also commendable. She’s on the taller side, though quite slim if you took it into consideration, and her paws are very useful when it comes to hunting. She’s an asset if you need a stealth mission or a hunting patrol.

**Former:**

Achlys is quite good at climbing, and can jump really high distances. There's also the fun fact that she can hear really well. She's got the tendency to have honey slip into her voice which lets her sooth others at times, and can give great comfort when it's needed. The molly also is really resourceful, and will use her surroundings as an advantage. Achlys is also very light, which makes tree travel a very good way to travel for her.

*Faults*

**Updated:**

Nutmegpaw tends to have a huge game face when in danger. She’s skittish, but she’ll toughen up and know her bounds when she knows she’s in danger. She's also got the issue that she's pretty strong but refuses to use that strength. The Manx is afraid of what she can do, how much power she really has in her paws. It’s that fact that makes her rarely draw her claws, with the raw power her paws have, the fact she can kill off small animals without her claws says as much to her. She also is frightened easily, so things like harsh rain and thunder scares her.

**Former:**

Achlys has absolute serious anger issues. She gets upset and goes through a fit of rage until somecat finally calms her down. Which takes a while. She gets upset over the most small things, and tends to lash out to cats who try to get close to her without her permission. She's also got the issue that she's pretty strong but refuses to use that strength. The only times she does is when she's upset and doesn't really care about it.

## Personality

**Updated:**

Nutmegpaw is a rather upbeat she-cat who tends to get frightened incredibly easily. She can sometimes come off as really blunt, or frustrated by silly little things. Usually, her tongue is laced with truth, as the Manx can’t really lie that well. Nutmeg makes a point to never lie, which makes it hard because sometimes she gives the hard truth. Going off the ‘frightened’ part of her, she tends to fear many different things: even if such things are much smaller than her. She’s skippy, very chipper if she wants to be. Can also be a huggge worry-wart, and attaches herself to other cats. Speaking of that: abandonment issues. She’s got a good amount of them, usually wanted to literally be at some cat’s paws in worry that she’s going to be left behind. It’s a large fear for her. Nutmeg could be scared of a feather for Starclan’s sake. She just wants friends to teach her courage and make her feel safe. This isn’t to say she’s technically a pushover though, since Nutmegpaw is a big ‘no-nonsense’ type. The second something’s unfavorable, she’ll put her opinion into it.

**Former:**

Achlys is quite fun of a cat at times. She's observative, and fairly caring when it comes to it. Growing up as a kittypet gave her large selections of words, which allowed her to speak in more of a poetic way. The molly has a kind tone at heart and truely does care when it comes to other cats. However, Achlys has serious anger issues. And tends to snap at every cat if they give her the smallest reason to. She can pretty much switch from poetic and kind to absolute jerk in the matter of seconds. Even if she is like this, she still is quite motherly, and is really sweet when she shows it.

## Detailed History

*Dawnstar's Reign*

Achyls' debuts in a scene where she meets Petalpaw, a young apprentice attempting to investigate the murder of her clanmate. The two hit it off pretty well, sharing quick quips with one another before they both soften, realizing how friendly and harmless the other is. Achyls confides in Petalpaw what she'd seen, revealing that she had been a witness to the murder. It is also implied that she met another clan cat following the attack, who Petalpaw identifies as Littleflame. Achyls, interested in joining the clan Petalpaw resides in, inquires about possibly having a home among them, to which Petalpaw hesitates. She tells the loner that she doesn't have the authority to invite her in, but she will welcome her to stay on the territory, at least until Petalpaw feels as though Achyls will be safe within in the clan. She allows the loner to stay at Silkstar's Fall while the investigation continues, mainly as a way to keep her out of harm's way.

**Moon 2**

Nutmegpaw shows up after the time-skip in a scene, renamed after joining the clan, alongside Petalpaw. The molly is upset and confesses it's about left-over feelings from the murder, and the former comforts her, telling her that nothing had been her fault. The pair are scared away from camp by the sound of a faint hiss, leading to Petalpaw guiding the pair away as to avoid possibly being overheard by Decayingbelladonna.

## Detailed Appearance

**Updated:**

A musty reddish-brown dame who’s on the larger side and has darker brownish stripes that run from her head down to her back. There are small stripes on her legs and near her paws. Near her scruff, a small heart-shaped fluff of lighter brown was. On her left paw is a ripped-up stocking from her old home. Her fur is curly and fluffy, leaning down into a puffy cut short tail that is wrapped by leaves. The molly has yellowish-golden eyes. She's also got a large blue and lighter blue striped stocking on her left paw that goes up past her ankle. Lastly, she has a huge bite mark on her right shoulder, followed by scars on her back-left, back-right, cheek, and a tear in her right round ear.

## Backstory

**Updated:**

As a kitten, Achlys grew up on a humble community of houses. She grew up with her loving parents, her two brothers, and her sister. They all were pretty peaceful during the time they were alive. Every day, Achlys would go and climb onto the rooves, traveling by balconies down the street to the bakery. Where she'd see the manager, and get fed a bit of bread. It was a pretty nice life. And one day, she did the usual, slipping out of the house to go get the baker's bread. Though, as she approached, she noticed something off about the place. Thick long strands of hot flames arose from the building's doors, and the bricks were covered in ashes that spewed into the streets. After realizing this was a danger, she started to run away. She got home and told everyone what had happened, yet none of them really cared too much and calmed her nerves. She agrees and sighs it off, thinking she was overreacting. That was until there were helicopters in the area. Large strange birds she had ever seen before. And slowly, the smoke came closer and closer to the street she lived on. While the housefolk and her were getting ready for bedtime, a sudden crash happened. The house blew inward, setting aflame the area. Turned out that the fire had spread and was consuming the city she had called home. Quickly she'd scramble to find her family, her sister had met up with her and joined in the search. She came to a room where her brothers were, one was sobbing in front of the other, who had been hit by a fallen support beam and couldn't get out. The fire spread more as they called to him that it was too late for the other brother. However, Cotton pulled her by the paw out of the room. The last thing she saw was Jake's tear-soaked face as the room collapsed on the two.

The two made their way downstairs, and to the door. At last they were able to make it out. Cotton told her to run as fast as she could and she listened. She booked it as fast as possibly done by a molly her size, making her way into the forest that lay not too far from the city's streets. With heavy breaths, she glanced back to look for Cotton, but saw nothing. Quickly she ran back for her sister, only to arrive back to ashes and smoke. The whole house had burnt down, and so had several down the street. Her whole home was covered in smoke and ashes, covered by flames that consumed them violently. With tears in her eyes, she swiftly made her way back into the forest. Though, through her rush, she ran into a wolf who ran at her and attacked her. She managed to get away from it, but at the cost of several scars across her beautiful coat, and a large bite mark across her right shoulder. After wandering a bit, she witnessed a horrific poisoning event from wildcats and ran into Petalpaw, who greeted her and offered her an opportunity for a new home, she agreed and her name changed to ‘Nutmegpaw’ upon joining the clan.

She managed to get away from it, but at the cost of several scars across her beautiful coat, and a large bite mark across her right shoulder. She wandered aimlessly through the forest, finding home in the tree's and meadow's the covered them. Still longing for her family. Silently cursing at herself silently as she wished she could have gone back and reversed the clock.
