Pricklepaw

Story
Pricklekit was born alongside her three littermates: Spiderkit, Sootkit, and Thornkit. Pricklekit and her sister, Thornkit, instantly became close friends. Preferring to stay within the walls of the nursery, close to their mother compared to the adventures that Spiderkit and Sootkit took. Sadly, at the age of four moons, Thornkit passed away due to sickness. Pricklekit was the hardest hit by this loss, she had not only lost her sister but her best friend as well. As Pricklekit was just beginning to get over the loss of Thornkit in anticipation of her apprentice ceremony, Fallenberry, her mother, was killed by a badger. This made Pricklekit feel even more alone. Apprenticed: Pricklepaw was just made an apprentice, and is being mentored by ??

Personality
Pricklepaw is a complicated little she-cat. She received her name due to her immediate prickliness upon birth, her claws little pinpricks in her mother's side and her mews sprinkled with a hint of hostility. She's got a tough exterior, Thornkit being the only cat she really ever let inside. But under that prickly shell is a sensitive she-cat, one who cares deeply for her family and clanmates, unable to watch them suffer without feeling empathy and sympathy. However, Pricklepaw prefers to keep that part of her hidden. Afterall, ShadowClan warriors are supposed to be tough, not weak, crying little kits. So she puts on a brave face, using her sharp tongue to help keep others from finding out who she truly is.

The relationship Spiderpaw and Sootpaw have is one that Pricklepaw finds herself watching with jealousy. She had that with Thornkit, but now she has no one. She's not like her other littermates who are filled with ambition and drive, curiosity and boldness. Pricklepaw does as she's told, follows the rules, does what she know will make those around her proud. That's not to say she doesn't love her littermates, she holds them very close to her heart, but she always feels a bit like an outsider when the three of them are together.
