Having joined Ashclan as a full-grown adult, this ex-kittypet has the embarrassing distinction of having been an Apprentice for three and three-quarter seasons. He acceptance into Ashclan was... shall we say, a very memorable event, so regardless, she stuck around. Though not a talented hunter, fighter and horrible with youngsters, she is a very fast cat indeed. She’s honestly adapted fairly badly to Clan life, but if Lindenfoot is one thing, she’s determined: she’s adapted to new homes before and this one is far more appealing to those human nests!

Lindenfoot has, perhaps, the most experience with humans of anyone in Ashclan; born a barn cat, TNR’d, put in a shelter and passed around more households than she can count, she’s experienced a wide range of human behaviors and fancies herself an expert on them. Until they do something really weird.

She is prone to doing very, very cute behaviors almost out of habit (she’s so used to making humans go ‘awww’ to get treats) and has two extremes to her personality: completely selfless and generous, or selfish to the point of hoarding air. Despite her ups and downs, Pansypelt loves this fellow calico and holy crap they’re so cute together look at my little lesbeans. She’s also good friends with Mudtracks.

Scalestar’s BFF, Pansypelt used to be a loner living under a flower shop and has been friends with the Leader since both were Apprentice-aged. When she learned of the Blight, the Manx chose to help care for the cats her friend loved so much. From stealing flowers and herbs to simply carrying out hunting duties when they were short-pawed, Pansypelt was eventually given a full Warrior ceremony for her help... after she’d agreed to join, of course. Some muttering was had about this, but no one really had the strength to fight at the time sO YEAH!

Pansypelt is the resident confidant of nearly any cat who needs someone to talk to; she’s excellent at comforting others and offering support and soft-spoken advice. She pretties up the Camp with flowers in blooming season.

Being a Manx, Pansypelt suffers from spinal problems and limited mobility. Despite this, she is a workaholic and is rarely known to take catnaps, using every free moment to either help someone out or help the Clan as a whole. She can spread herself thin at times and can become too exhausted to care for herself.

Somehow this guy is a great dad to everyone except his biological daughter, go figure. He is Scalestar’s third Deputy, their first and the replacement having died during the Blight, a hard-working fool putting all of his time and energy into ensuring the well-being of the Clan. Cragheart is wracked by guilt over the deaths of his mate and Clanmates, cryptically acting as though he’s somehow to blame; as a result he is an incredible pain in the ass when it comes to making sure cats respect young Lichencloud’s orders. Stay healthy kids! He’s also bossy in general, but in a cool dad-like way.

In an attempt to keep the memory of those lost alive, he’s adopted many of their hobbies: his brother Birchfur’s habit of counting berries on bushes, Brackentail’s  gossiping ways and his mate Leopardstep’s curiosity regarding Tallwalkers. He’s also finally obeying her wishes and learning dad jokes.
