#pigeonstripe

Sister of Honeypaw, she’s thrilled to the bone that her sister is training to be a Cleric!! Not so thrilled that their mom left them both high and dry in Ashclan, though. =C Being born white and not developing visible points until far later thanks to ample white spotting, her mother initially named her after apple blossoms, not the fruit; turns out she became bright red underneath all that white though, so it works out!

Little girlie decided to eat an apple one day out of curiosity; as a result, Lichencloud had to give her a crash course on edible berries and fruits, ‘cause she likes crunching on them. crounch.

She tends to get injured a lot to give her sister something to practice with; this can drive even laid-back Pansypelt, her Mentor, into the trees with worry and frustration. Applepaw is honestly very frustrated and upset with the fact that her sister isn’t super close to her emotionally, and so she’ll do anything she can to spend time with her. Even playing with bugs, which she honestly doesn’t like much.

In the absence of her sister, Webpaw has taken a key place in her life as her best friend. He tells lame jokes, she laughs and makes them worse; he breaks a rule, she makes sure they don’t get in trouble (learned how to play with the rules from her sister; honestly only follow them ‘cause it’s convenient, and mostly makes sense.)

The only Apprentice of Clanborn origin; being surrounded by cats that are learning everything from scratch has honestly done wonders to the poor dork’s ego. Son of Pigeonstripe and Sleetclaw, two of his siblings died while they were still kittens and a third just a little after their training began, all to the Blight. He’s practically a germophobe, or as close as one can be when you live in the wild; more like ‘keep your bad sickness-spirits away from me’.

Webpaw overthinks everything, including thinking, and stumbles over his words as a result. Thus, his jokes usually end up derailing and being pretty bland, unlike his dad’s. He looks up to his pop tremendously; his goal in life is not to be a great hunter or tracker or whatever, but to be a great dad; he’s very fatherly already.

Sister of Pigeonstripe, with the two of them sharing a birthday with Newtnose, Hickoryear used to be called Hickoryfoot. Until she got a really case of ear mites that ruined her left ear; Lichencloud has a complicated relationship with his most common patient. Because beyond ruining her ear, she’s always sick; poor girl’s always got some sort of a cold, or bellyache, or headache, one ailment or another always haunts her; the ear mites were just the cherry on top, so she requested a name change because this immune system has been a big problem yo.

Hickoryear sneezes more than she talks; she’s far quieter than her boisterous brother and admires his badass mate. She’s usually fairly soft-spoken, but becomes a scathing thing when pissed off. The only other time she’s known to speak up is early in the morning; this girl’s always the first to ask Cragheart how she can help out today, if she’s able to.

She wooed her lovely wife, Leektail, with cute riddles, rhymes and poems; they had one daughter together called Dovefur, who Pigeonstripe had the honor of mentoring. Sadly, both died during the blight, so she almost forcefully inserts herself into her brother’s family to try and forget her loss and satisfy her desire to mother others. </3
