#finchrise

Fungusroot is the grumpy elder but a great storyteller. She is the youngest elder in the den but not by much. She used to be named finchrise, but for unknown circumstances, she changed her name to Fungusroot. Some suspect it was due to her bad luck. As a warrior, she had a mate named featherfur. He died from a disease a few days after finchrise discovered she was expecting. She gave birth to 3 kits, two being stillborn and one surviving to apprenticeship. Her only surviving kit eventually lost his life in battle. You can probably imagine that she became very sad and angry, especially with starclan. She is snappy with pretty much anyone but kits, who she adores. She took pretty long to retire as well. It wasn't until she was nearly killed in a border skirmish when she was finally forced into retirement.
