*Note To Self: Give Dreary -1 to 2 in rolls*

Character by Logan, Art by Logan

## Description/Personality

Drearymoon is a tom with smooth, dark blue-gray fur with softer white accents. His tail and right forepaw are white. He has light grey-blue, foggy eyes. He's blind, and because of that he holds a lot of salt, but he's doing his best to learn despite the rapid camp changes recently.

He's surprisingly sturdy despite growing up during these times.

## **Life Events**

Drearymoon (then Drearykit) survived the Cavernclan flood thanks to Robinpaw. He met Larkpaw and Owlpaw in the makeshift camp that Cavernclan and Gladeclan share at the moment. He met Badgerpaw as a kit and became salty at the world, due to the other blind apprentice not believing he was blind.

Shortly after, he was apprenticed to Curlingsmoke. Right after the ceremony, Curlingsmoke decided to take him out to the territory, promptly deciding that going to check the caves that Cavernclan used to call home rather than try to lead the blind cat through the forest above. As they went down, Drearypaw smelled Gang cats, but didn't know what the scent was. This scent came from Bean, the cat accompanying Condorpaw, Curlingsmoke's son, back home. Drearypaw heard voices coming from the medicine den far before Curlingsmoke did, thanks to his heightened senses, and was told to stay put while his mentor went to check it out. (Due to Curlingsmoke recognizing the Gang's scent and not wanting to endanger his new apprentice.) Drearypaw heard a shriek, (from Condorpaw when he was surprised by Curlingsmoke,) and ran for the medicine den, running into the wall next to it. After being assured that everything was fine, he learned that Condorpaw was Curlingsmoke's son, and also the medicine cat. Drearypaw felt a bit dejected that his first time out of camp was taken over by the other apprentice and a random cat named Bean, but went along with it anyway, holding his tongue about Bean being a gang cat.

Drearypaw went out training with Stonestrike, Kestrelpaw, Chasmpaw and Larkpaw. During that time, he learned that he can hear where another cat is, and hear when they move or the lack of pawsteps when they jump, and try to calculate where they are in order to dodge or attack them. He's still working on it, but he's realized his ears are his greatest strength. Stonestrike said he would be happy to help in his training with Curlingsmoke was busy being the deupty of the clan.

Drearypaw went out to help Larkpaw 'look' for Mosskit, along with Owlpaw, (without knowing that Larkpaw had just murdered the kit) and nearly fell down the hill the kit fell down while trying to find him. He still has no idea that Larkpaw is a murderer, and has begun to develop feelings for her.

Time passed relatively uneventfully until Lionstar died, Curlingstar becoming the new leader of Cavernclan. Drearypaw wasn't sure how to process the information and cried to his parents in Starclan, silent to anyone but himself. Not long after that, Larkpaw admitted to Owlpaw and Drearypaw that she had killed a Reedclan apprentice named Clearpaw, and he felt disgusted, but couldn't shake the fact he loved Larkpaw, so he remained calm and listened to her.

Not long after, the apprentices were given their warrior ceremonies. Drearypaw was named Drearymoon in respect to his resilience and courage to continue training despite his blindness. Soon after the ceremony, Drearymoon confessed to Larkface, telling her he wanted to be mates. She accepted, leaving them both very happy.
