Description: Yewstem is a large, well-muscled she-cat with striking natural green eyes. She is a taupe-colored tabby with dark brown stripes and is a pure European wildcat.
As a kitten, she was given to Flameclan as a symbolic gift during its early years; the clan had sheltered her family after they were attacked and her mother was killed by an off-leash dog in the reserve. She was mentored for the warrior role by Aldersong and eventually became the clan’s most powerful fighter through sheer brute force.
While the clans within the Lowlands face little interclan conflict, her role remains crucial for protecting Flameclan from predators and rogues.
Her mate is Coalwhisker, a soft-spoken and rather shy tom, an interesting match for her extroverted, boisterous nature. Together they have one kitten, Finchkit.
Although she doesn’t play a major role in The Blood Trail itself, she is Pearflower and Firewhisper’s closest friend and often serves as the gentle rock Pearflower needs in times of strife. Within the clan, she is generally treated with respect, though some cats see her as a weird or exotic presence due to her lineage.
