Description:
Spottedtail seems mostly like a frail, elderly she-cat, incapable of doing much more than visiting the dirtplace and back. That statement is mostly false, but being elderly is cold hard truth. She has a skinny build, with her bones showing up underneath her thin pelt.
Her fur is mostly a pale white color, but she has two large spots intersecting on her right side, a color of light brown with darker stripes running vertically on the spots. Her tail is bushy like a raccoon, giving her name. It has gray stripes ringing around her tail, and she has a spot on her head that looks like a helmet, with small, gray hairs around her muzzle.
Personality:
Caring, Humorous, Stern, Adventurous, Star-bound
Spottedtail seems to be kind and and caring, being cheerful towards the young she-cat, Ashkit. She knew that it was without the fourth leg that prevented her from being a warrior, and the elder knew that. Oh, yes. Spottedtail knew that Ashkit can be a fantastic warrior.
Even with her laughter and caring attitude, she does have a darker side, much like when she was a ShadowClan warrior. She can be stern to unappreciative apprentices, complaining warriors, and even other strict elders. She has a heart, and she chooses how to use it.
Even as an older cat in her Clan, she loves a good adventure on occassion. Some believe she looses her mind out in the forest, and returning near dusk. She brings home her own prey sometimes, mostly a scrawny mouse or something. She is set by the many stars in the sky, her ancestors waiting for her to follow their path up to StarClan. She is reluctant to tread up to where her family has. Staying in her Clan is the best thing for her to endure.
History:
Darkness surrounded the Nursery on a Greenleaf night, and thin light leaked through the treetops. A queen was giving birth to her kits, and she shreiked loudly. The first was born; a strong tom. Another yelp, then silence. The mother has died while giving birth to the second kit, a weak she-kit carely hanging on to her life. The medicine cat tried his hardest to nurse the kit back to her life, and soon enough, the young kit was nursing to the other nursing queen, with kits two moons older.
After days and nights, the father had the courage to name the two. The tough tom was named Leopardkit, and the she-kit was dubbed Spottedkit, for her two spots on her left side. The two grew up without knowing their mother, but were fine without her. Leopardkit ended up being the rough leader, and Spottedkit was the follower, just agreeing to whatever he said.
Soon enough, they became apprentices, Leopardpaw and Spottedpaw. The other litter were now the oldest apprentices of eight moons, and bossed the two around all the time. All except Nettlepaw, the tom beside his sisters. They became closer, and her brother was the center of the she-cat's world. When Nettlepaw became a warrior, she knew that they would be apart for a while.
The two became warriors at last, Leopardeyes and Spottedtail. Nettlefrost was the first to congratulate her, and became inseperable. It seemed impossible, but at twenty moons, Spottedtail moved to the Nursery to have her kits. She was weary of raising her kits through Leaf-bare, but with the Clan behind her, she knew it would be fine.
A light and snowy day came, and her kits arrived. Two she-cats and a tom, which she named according to pelt color. Cherrykit for her ginger-ish paws, Briarkit for his light brown pelt, and Mistkit for her resemblence to her father. Spottedtail was proud of all her kits, and so was her mate.
She watched as her kits became apprentices, as both parents were proud of the accomplishment. They agreed to stay mates, but no more kits, for Spottedtail was one of the best hunters of the Clan. More or less, the apprentices were visited by Nettlefrost and Spottedtail most of the time. They were influencing their training, and it made all the difference.
When the day before their warrior ceremony came, and a border dispute came with Riverclan. They took the life of Mistpaw, Briarpaw, and her mate. She was heartbroken, and stayed on her paws in the camp, ready to race and defend her remaining kit, Cherryfoot.
She went to Gatherings often, and established herself as a senior warrior at fourty moons. That was when she got her first apprentice, Fernpaw. It was her brother's neice, who did mate with Nettlefrost's ginger sister. The apprentice was extremely bossy, and she had to be as strict as possible to tame her attitude.
Fernpaw became a warrior before she knew it, and Spottedtail was relieved. She took it easy, knowing it will be a while before she could join the elders. Her brother was gone, and so was her kit, so she stayed away from the Clan most of the time. She always looked towards the stars, knowing that they hold the answer.
When she was about eighty moons, she retired to become an elder, but that still didn't rustle her spirits. She went out into the forest after the attack on RiverClan, but stayed back when they took back the land. She was furious, but she still went out near camp.
And to this day, she is an older she-cat with many more stories to tell.
