Gene String: ll BB XoY Dd ApbA/aa mcmc Ccs Wsw
Appearance:
Lakefire’s build is on the slimmer side for a medium-haired cat. Deep navy stripes run down his sides and paint his face like a mask. His underbelly, muzzle, and forehead are white. Due to a fur mutation, his hind right leg and entire front left leg are completely black. Lakefire’s eyes are a sharp blue, always judgmentally staring down his clan-mates.
Personality
Positive Traits: • Adaptable • Incorruptible • Realistic | Negative Traits: • Abrasive • Charmless • Opinionated |
Personality:
Lakefire is quick on his feet, both physically and mentally. Respect is earned, not freely given out, and he’s not afraid to tell that to any cat’s face. His treatment style is often unorthodox and he follows very little rules besides his own… maybe excluding his leader’s words, which he will always begrudgingly follow after complaining for five minutes.
Lakefire isn’t one for social etiquette, as he believes much of it is too ritualistic and a waste of time; he’s frequently late to gatherings or just skips them if he thinks they’re unnecessary for the month. His lack of communication also extends to the other medicine cats. Lakefire doesn’t care how others view him and it shows.
Despite all of this, Lakefire still has some good traits. He is completely dedicated to his work, even more so than his loyalty to his clan, so it's nearly impossible for him to not do his job. Though he doesn’t outwardly express his care for others, it’s the main reason he wakes up every morning. Lakefire doesn’t discriminate between cats, as he says he hates them all equally, and has no qualm healing others.
His social life is lacking as he gets most of his interactions within the medicine den or speaking to his leader and deputy. Lakefire’s downtime usually consists of herb-picking and scolding poor apprentices.
Skills & Combat
Strengths: • Identification of plants/herbs/etc • Evasion/dodging • Minding his own business | Weaknesses: • Facing larger cats in battle • Will bluntly tell a patient they’re dying |
Character Background
History:
Like many of the other clan cats, Lakefire was born into the large loner colony that inhabited Mossclan territory. His colony drifted in-between what is now known as Moss and Meadowclan. His mother, Heron, was a kittypet that ran away from her two-legs when she was only a kitten, and his father, Badger, was a loner. Heron had Lake and Birch at a young fourteen moons with her mate nowhere in sight. Caring for two kits in a colony wasn't as difficult as it seemed, especially since she had a team of other mollies at her disposal.
Lake and Birch grew up close together, bickering often as brothers do. Most of their arguments remained surface level as they truly do look out and care for each other.
At ten moons old, he received a strange vision. Something to do with claw-marks and strange cats, though he was only able to recall the fuzzy details. Lake pushed the thought to side as much as he could, blaming it on a bad mouse he ate that night.
When the clans arrived five moons later, Lake recalled his dream. He found the friendliest face amongst the newcomers, a tortie molly named Pebblestar, and hesitantly hovered around her group of cats. He explained his dream and was quickly prepared for the role of medicine cat. He resisted at first but began to enjoy the feeling of having a purpose.
Lake was taught how to use herbs and the knowledge came quickly due to his studious nature. He was soon given his warrior name: Lakefire. The -fire suffix originated from his sharp tongue and combustible temper.
His brother also joined Mossclan as Birchmask. Heron wasn't keen on the idea of being tied down and chose to stick to her loner ways, gifting her sons mice alongside the border and checking on them every blue moon.
