HOPEPAW | SHADOWCLAN APPRENTICE | 7 MOONS | SHE-CAT Large and intimidating, Hopepaw could be described more like a tiger than a clan cat. Not to say she is particularly heavy, in fact, she's rather slim around her stomach. Most of her muscle rests in her shoulders and legs, giving her almost a bulky, awkward appearance. Her undercoat is a light brown, almost orange color, but it is hidden behind thick black stripes. Her neck, chest, belly, back legs, and front toes are all white. Her eyes are a glittering amber, and she always appears to be angry. Hopepaw isn't much of a talker. She comes off as hostile and doesn't seem to get along with very many cats. She was only really close to her brother and father, but never the rest of her family. She loves fighting training and uses her size and strength to her advantage. Quick to anger, if you get on her bad side, beware a cuff to the head. She has a horrible temper and hates being told what to do. However, she shows respect to authority and to older cats such as her mentor, the deputy, leader, etc. Doesn't mean she isn't cursing their orders under her breath, however. If you were to actually get close to her, actually to befriend her, you would find she could be a sweet, caring cat. She will defend her loved ones without hesitation, even at the cost of her own life. Hopekit was born with two other siblings- Poppykit and Oakkit. Her mother was always proud of her children and encouraged them to follow their ambitions and be themselves. Hopekit never really played with the other kits and stayed close to her father. At 5 moons, Hopekit's father died on a patrol intending to take care of a badger that had previously killed her aunt, Mistleaf, while she was out gathering herbs. While the badger was removed from Shadowclan territory, many of the cats in the patrol came back injured or dead. Since then, Hopekit strayed even further from her clanmates and family. Hopekit, upon becoming Hopepaw, was apprenticed to Cherrysong. While she respects her mentor, she thinks that her training style can be a bit harsh.
