Description:   When it comes to size, Harrier is rather tall in comparison to some of her clanmates. Her body is strong, but lithe. Her muscles help her balance well in the trees and run uphill, along the sand and swim in the waves against the shore. Her long tail is thick like the rest of her fur, a dark russet-black ticked tabby with brown eyes. Her body adorns many scars beneath her pelt, but most aren’t even noticeable. The dark red-brown fur instead protects others from viewing the marred sights, deeper tabby markings distracting the eyes from seeking deeper into her pelt with their intricate designs. Even if one were to try and dig deeper, even by accident during a grooming session, it’s hard to get past the thick fur. While Harrierflight does respect herself, she doesn’t seem to exclude time from a busy scheduled to go out of her way to actually groom her pelt more than absolutely necessary - and that is mostly done to hush upset denmates. Even worse, it’s hard to tell her exact pelt color; and no one is sure if that’s because it’s cleanliness varies, or if it’s the lighting. The thick fur can be described like a sunset; from the brightest red hues with maroon tabby tints, or a deep messy brown like her fathers with dark mud stripes.

Large, wide optics like hers are very hard to describe; a base color of amber and honey, but with a mix of dark chocolate and hazel to give the whole pool of color a beautiful blend. The most fascinating thing is that she always seems fascinated. No matter her anger, her fear, her sadness, or even her love with another near her, her eyes light up like she’s watching one’s soul unfold, analyzing everything.

Even though both eyes always seem bright and knowing, Harrierflight does have a weakness that is well hidden; her left eye is damaged, and hardly sees anything at all.

Personality:

A very passionate she-cat, driven to learn and teach. She’s seen as hyperactive with a short attention span, though that’s far from the truth. She easily learns things quickly, and picks up on a far faster process. She also doesn’t like to be bored, so she preoccupies herself with observing and learning others around her, and quickly thinking of a way to make it teachable. This misleads others to think her eccentric, and maybe even a bit crazy.

Harrierflight is an extremist in every sense of the word. She has a strong sense of wonder, curiosity, thirst for knowledge, and kinship. She likes to tease playfully, and never really means much harm. She has a misunderstood sense of adventure; sometimes breaking rules to go out in search of something new and interesting to learn about. She’s been caught watching her prey without bothering to really hunt it, and keeping a dangerously close eye to spy on the more predator like animals. Her hyperactive streak with no personal worries of getting injured led most to believe that her meddling with them is dangerous; that she’s just a ‘crazy eccentric’, when really she’s just easily excited and a bit emotional.

Harrier isn’t the neatest cat; she actually tends to leave a bit of a mess. She moves around in her sleep, and tends to slack off in cleaning it until it’s time to go to sleep again. Even with the lack of her own personal safety, she often takes on an almost motherly role when it comes to the care of her friends and clanmates. She wants to ensure their safety and would easily put herself in danger so long as she could get them out of the line of fire. She takes threats to the heart; and follows through with her own. If you try and intimidate her or someone she cares about, she’ll deal with you herself and make sure it doesn’t happen again. The warrior is very agile and skilled in her training of fighting and defense; she really isn’t a force to reckon with, but she starts to get a bit doubtful of herself from time to time due to the fact she feels rather bad about hurting others who really are just doing the same as her: following orders.

She has an amazing eye for detail; her observations are rather accurate and amazing, and she’s quick with tactic skills and deduction. She’s just rather hard to take seriously due to the amount of excitement that turns up when she starts talking about what she’s learned. That doesn’t mean she can’t be serious when trying to make her point clear. Due to the fact she often has broken a rule here or there, or gone against orders, it’s assumed that she doesn’t respect authority figures often and undermines them. However, she actually cares very much about what someone above her has to say; and while she seeks the approval of being a good warrior she also believes that sometimes a good warrior must take actions into their own hands. This doesn’t mean she is cold, this doesn’t mean she doesn’t love and doesn’t trust. She becomes what she must be to protect those she loves, and she fights for those she trusts. That’s what it all means to her.

Once she is left alone to think, she finds life and thoughts on it the most reasonable. Though, in this state she is seen as rather short-tempered, not like being shaken from her thoughts. Much as she teaches to new mothers going through so much, she believes in the lives of innocence. Kits shouldn’t be blamed on the wrong-doing of a parent, and thus she judges them solely on who they are; in this way she is a very open mother-figure, and has kept her heart open to anyone in need of her.
