☆☆☆
Gene String: ｡ﾟ･ (>﹏<) ･ﾟ｡
Appearance:
Berryshade is a large pawed, white albino she cat with long spikey fur. Her build is one much like her adopted father, funnily enough. She's a bit on the larger side now that she has grown, yet her paws haven't changed from being big. Her fur, long and messy, is soft and hasn't smoothed out like it probably should have. Spiking along her spine and tail where its longest, and framing her face with tufts of pale fur. Because of her mutation she lacks pigment, meaning her pelt is solid white and her skin is sensitive to sunlight. Her eyes, large and round, are as red as berries, though with age have become sharper and more pointed toward the edges. The molly's nose, paw pads, and inner ears are a pleasant pink color.
Personality
Please list at least three positive and three negative traits for your character below.
Positive Traits: • Thoughtful • Calm • Intelligent | Negative Traits: • Guarded • Insecure • Stubborn |
Personality:
Up until her warriorhood, Berryshade was a bit of an extrovert. She was playful, fun, and kind. But now that the journey is complete she has become a different cat it seems. Once loud, she is now quieter and more calculating. She thinks hard before she speaks and takes the time to observe her surroundings and others. She believes it's important to pay attention to the little things and consider every option before taking action, which may keep her behind in a time crunch but is more effictive for a sure decision. During any situation she has mastered being calm and rational. Poker faces are her expertise nowadays. Actions speak louder than words, right? The world is a fascinating place and that's something she's always believed. Now, after everything, she's taking the time to really see it.
She has her moments of course, no cat is perfect. Maybe everything they've been through has made an impact on the molly, changed her a bit. She's become a bit more guarded, preferring to keep her thoughts to herself most of the time. She only really opens up to her dear former mentor and leader Rowanstar. He's the only thing in her life that's stayed consistent, the one cat she can trust. Insecurity isn't exactly new for Berryshade- in her youth she was timid when it came to her odd looks, specifically her eyes, but that feeling has branched into anxiety over her skills as a warrior as well. Though she trusts in her mentors teachings and reminds herself of his lessons in rough moments, and can be firm on what she belives in. It's hard to sway the warrior and few cats may manage to, but she's completely rational and considerate of all sides.

Character Background
History:
Born the only daughter to Palefrost and Reedpath, Berryshade was brought into a family that wasn't whole. Her father, Reedpath, had died before she was born, murdered and left at the riverside to be found by her clan. She took his loss hard, grieving the father she never had. Her kithood was spent close by her mother's side, where she felt safe and loved. Berrykit knew she was different and preferred to stay inside the nursery instead of playing like everyone else. Palefrost was understandable protective as well, which may have contributed to her habits.
Apprenticehood rolled around soon enough and things changed for the better. Berrypaw was assigned to Rowanshade, deputy of Gladeclan! Honored and humbled, the young cat devoted herself to his training and worked hard to make him proud. Over the span of time from kit to young cat, she bonded with the red tom, accepting him as a sort of father figure in her life. For the first time in her life she felt comfortable and excited for the future, and began to reach out to her fellow apprentices and get to know her clan. She formed bonds, made friends, and finally started to blossom. And then it happened.
Just before her warrior ceremony, a wave of famine and fighting overtook the clans. Cats went to war and twolegs were relentless in their torment. Once it was over, only a few were left. Tired and defeated, Berryshade clung to her mentor's side and waited for hope. A specific group of cats recieved a prophecy, a glimmer of hope. They needed to find their new home. Berryshade travelled with who was left of her family, heart heavy but spirits lifting at the promise of a new start.
They had found somewhere new and safe to settle after many moons of travveling. Rowanstar had been elected leader of a new clan, Meadowclan. After so many moons of being his apprentice Berrypaw felt it was finally time. She met with Rowanstar and requested he give her the name Berryshade in honor of him and everything he's done for her. Now it's time to live up to her new name and make him proud as a warrior of Meadowclan.
