Appearance:
Muddybug’s fuzzy pelt is mostly gray with a white underbelly and muzzle. She wears a mask of blueish-charcoal, the same color streaking across her sides, down her back, and the tip of her tail. White freckles scatter across her body and paw-pads like fresh powder. Autumn hues tint her always-smiling cheeks and chest, gently cupping river-blue eyes that sparkle in the presence of her loved ones.
The molly is a bit short in stature, but dense. Whether it’s fur, muscle, fat, of a combination of all three, she’s about the size of a normal female compressed together into a smaller package.
Personality
Positive Traits: • Agreeable • Compassionate • Trusting | Negative Traits: • Gullible • Weak-willed • Fickle |
Personality:
Muddybug is a gentle soul; sweet and docile, though maybe to a fault. She’s easy to approach and gets along with cats no matter their clan affiliation or lack thereof. Muddybug always sees on the bright side; wherever she steps, the grass always seems to be greener.
Her mellow nature makes her an easy target, often unaware of mistreatment or too shy to speak up. She is soft spoken and finds it difficult to voice negativities to others, even if it means bottling up and suffering in silence. Her expressions leave little to hide, though. If she’s deeply upset, every bone in her body will reflect so; and similarly when she’s happy, Muddybug will have a contagious smile and a skip in her step.
As she sees the positive in all options, Muddybug struggles to make decisions and often doesn’t mind when others do it for her. This makes her easy to collaborate with but also allows opportunities to be taken advantage of. To an outsider, Muddybug may seem like she doesn’t care enough about anything to be firm; instead, she cares less about the end result and more about other’s emotions during the process. Are they happy if she does this, or that? Even leaving one cat unsatisfied can keep her up at night.
She falls into a supportive role very naturally and is her most comfortable there.

Character Background
History:
Muddykit was an only kit, but never felt like she was alone. She was born during a fruitful Newleaf when several other families were having kits as well, ensuring a rowdy nursery. Quailskip and Fennelstag had their paws full with their little bundle of joy, as Muddykit was chock-full of energy and quite the troublemaker. She was named for her messily-colored pelt which her mother often joked about (“It’s like Starclan dropped you in the mud and pulled you out by your tail!”).
Her apprentice moons were full of anxiety. Both a blessing and a curse, Muddypaw was quick to pick up other’s emotions and soak them in like a sponge. Twoleg interference in clan territory had every cat on edge, and she could feel their thoughts jumping around on her pelt like static. Luckily, her support network of friends and family were always there to lend a shoulder.
She was given the warrior name “Muddybug” to honor her friendly disposition and innocent outlook. There was little time to celebrate, as tensions had finally reached their tipping point and the clans were on the move. Still high off of her recent promotion and doing her best to cope, Muddybug tended to other’s morales during the journey. Looking at all of the somber faces marching to some unknown place… she knew someone had to try to keep the mood light. And if not her, who else? She sang songs, gave the kits piggy-back rides, and was the most obnoxiously positive cat on the trail. Her own struggles hid just underneath the surface and stayed that way.
The fight with the Bluebloods was especially difficult for her. She was exhausted from traveling, both mentally and physically, and struggled in combat. Muddybug shrunk away from the offensive front lines, instead choosing to protect the more vulnerable in a defensive role. Luckily for her conscience, she did not have to kill another cat at the time.
She could finally breathe a sigh of relief when all conflict seemed to be simmering down; the clans were establishing new territories, Bluebloods nowhere to be seen, and Aspenstar was made leader of Gorseclan.
Even with hardship lining her youth, Muddybug never let it define her. She’d meet any challenge with a full heart and gentle smile.
