Personality
› Unusual, Unreserved, Unconventional, Indecisive, Fickle
› Laid-back, Level-headed, Candid, Kind, Eccentric
- Pebblefoot is known for her level-headed personality. That under pressure she can make reasonable decisions and is not as reactive as her brother Thornfall. Pebblefoot always viewed herself as the glue that had to keep her family together. Being a voice of reason when her father died. To helping her brother keep his head when he lost their sister Sorreltial, along with losing his mate Emberheart.
- While Pebblefoot is known for her kindness amongst her mostly her family members and even some of her clanmates. Her candid personality can come into play depending on the situation. Most recently her views on Finchstar's leadership. Pebblefoot will speak her truth, following her answers with reason. While she doesn't profess her opinions for Finchstar as loud and proud as her brother does. Pebblefoot will speak her full opinion if asked.
- One of Pebblefoot's negative traits is her inability to choose. Pebblefoot is an indecisive cat by nature. This indecisiveness can cause Pebblefoot to stand at the freshkill piles for long periods of time pondering what piece of prey she should eat for her meal. This indecisiveness is also a main reason why Pebblefoot hasn't chosen a mate at the age of 50 moons. Pebblefoot is too picky when it comes to considering majority of the Redwoodclan toms as mates. She always finds one reason why she doesn't believe they are mate material. She also frank has little desire to have children of her own. So she sticks to have short lived flings with different toms. That ultimately end with Pebblefoot breaking their hearts.
- Another one of Pebblefoot's negative traits that she picked up as a kitten is how she is unconventional and comes off as unusual because of it. Starting as a young kitten Pebblefoot started an unhealthy habit of collecting a random assortment of trinkets. Her collection grew so big that her fellow denmates when she was an apprentice complained. That her mother had a word with her to find another place to store her items. So Pebblefoot found a small place in camp to store them. When Cloverkit and Tansykit were kittens she showered her niece and nephew with the stories behind the trinkets. Leaving her clanmates to whisper behind her back about how odd she was.
History
KIT
Pebblekit was born during the summer along with her littermates Thornkit and Sorrelkit. She and her littermates were born during a time of peace and were a welcoming site to the clan. Her parents Heatherstream and Gorseheart were loving parents that were both actively involved in raising her and her siblings. As a young kitten Pebblekit grew close to her sister Sorrelkit. The two of them became partners in crime. They did everything together from causing typical kit mischief to playing their favorite games of moss ball, to even wrestling in the middle of camp tumbling in other's way.
With her sister at her side the two of them quickly left their mother's side and became more independent. While their brother preferred to spend time with their parents. It was this independence that got Pebblekit and Sorrelkit in trouble with their brother. As the two of them liked to cause trouble for the medicine cat by sneaking into his den and poking their nose into his herb store. Pebblekit always managing to snag a trinket on her way out.
It was at a young age that Pebblekit's mischief, wild streak, and her very so growing collection of random trinkets that got her in trouble with the older kits of the nursery. In particular a she-cat by the name of Foxkit. The other she-cat always liking to call Pebblekit names and make fun of how abnormal she was from everyone else. This led to a fight between her brother Thornkit and Foxkit. While Thornkit in the end got in trouble for causing a fight. The heroic action has always stuck with Pebblekit even when she got older.
APPRENTICESHIP
A six moons old Pebblepaw had grown out of the wild energy she had as a young kitten and had matured. Developing a more laid-back attitude as she got older. She became an apprentice along with her siblings Thornpaw and Sorrelpaw. Pebblepaw was apprenticed to a young warrior by the name of Falconcry. The young tom had became a warrior only a few short moons before she was made an apprentice. While Pebblepaw had mellowed out and wasn't able to see her sister Sorrelpaw as often as she had in the nursery. The two sisters' vowed a friendly rivalry to see who could hit certain milestones first. Pebblepaw worked tirelessly from dawn to dusk to out compete her sister. The two sisters' mentors even encouraging the friendly rivalry often teaching lessons together. It was as an apprentice that Pebblepaw realized she had a natural talent for speed. While she would never be as strong as her siblings. Her mentor Falconcry works endless to teach her techniques for hunting and fighting that utilized her speed.
It was during her apprenticeship that her mother Heatherstream became deputy underneath Mothstar after the previous deputy Ambertail retired. Pebblepaw was proud that her mother had become deputy, and viewed her as a role model to follow. For the rest of her apprenticeship Pebblepaw worked hard to prove that she could be as great of a warrior someday as her mother.
WARRIOR
Then the time came for Pebblepaw and her siblings to be named warriors. Pebblepaw was named Pebblefoot in honor of her mother's sister Pebblefoot also after her talent for being quick on her paws. As she sat in a redwood tree by herself and her siblings in their own trees. Pebblefoot's mind began to race because this was the begining of her life. The life she would now live and she had little to no plan. When she got down from the tree at sunrise she hadn't a clue of what she should do.
Moons had passed after she was named a warrior. Her brother had announced he was taking Emberheart has his mate. While she was happy for her brother the news struck a cord in Pebblefoot. It made her stop and think about what she should do with her life. That time was ticking slowly away. None of the toms in the clan really interested Pebblefoot. She had attempted to date a small pawful of them, but found none of them to be mate material. She didn't even know if she really wanted a mate let alone start a family.
It was a moon after Thornfall's announcement that tragedy struck the clan and Mothstar passed leaving her mother Heatherstar to take her place as Redwoodclan's new leader. Like her brother Pebblefoot heard the whispers from her fellow clanmates. The looks they would flash towards her mother whenever she was speaking. At first the disrespect left a sour taste in her mouth. At first she would retaliate with sharp words, but as her efforts proved to be useless. Pebblefoot grew numb to the words and began to ignore them.
Her world only began to spiral afterwards. An attack on Redwoodclan's camp left her and her clanmates bruised, bloody, and beaten. The once great Redwoodclan a former shell of itself. The battle caused Lichenclan to become more bolder. Until a border skirmish led to the Bluetail the deputy's death. It was then Heatherstar announced Gorseheart her father to take Bluetail's place as deputy. A fact that scared Pebblefoot because that meant one of her parents would have to die. It wasn't soon after her father Gorseheart was killed in a border skirmish. The patrol reporting back how brave her father had been and how he took his final breath on Redwoodclan's land. As Pebblefoot sat that night grieving for her father along with her brother, sister and mother. She silently asked Starclan how could they be so cruel.
It was then her mother broke tradition and refused to name a deputy to take her father's place on time. It wasn't until her and her siblings dragged her mother from her nest. That Heatherstar named the new deputy at Finchtail. A warrior several moons young than Pebblefoot and her own siblings. A name that left the clan in complete silence at the nervous young tom accepted the position. She remember hiding in the slight shadows behind her siblings. Sending a bitter look in Finchtail's direction as her siblings verbalized their opinions.
It was from that moment on as days past. Night turn into day that Pebblefoot and her siblings, along with the clan began to notice Heatherstar growing weaker. The light had died in her eyes the night of Gorseheart's passing and one day on the morning of a battle with Lichenclan. Heatherstar turned to her daughters and whispered her goodbyes and left the camp one last time never to return. The clan buried her mother Heatherstar alongside her father Gorseheart. While Thornfall sought comfort from his mate. Pebblefoot looked to her sister Sorreltail. The two them growing close just like they had when they were kits. With the news of Thornfall's mate expecting a litter of kittens a moon later. Pebblefoot was excited to become an aunt. She felt true happiness for once.
The happiness was ripped away in the next battle. Her sister Sorreltail's life was cut short when a large Lichenclan tom shredded her throat with little mercy letting her bleed to death on the shoreline. Pebblefoot mourned with her brother Thornfall in the shadows. Her heart broken cries bouncing off the redwood trees. As she had not only lost her sister, but her best friend. It was with her sister's death she grew closer to her brother. That she made a vow to him to always be there for him, to be his kits' lives. When Cloverkit and Tansykit were born Pebblefoot was at Thornfall and Emberheart's side to assist the new parents.
Pebblefoot quickly fell into the role of the fun loving aunt. Spoiling her niece and nephew maybe a little too much. With their birth Pebblefoot considered her own options. She wasn't getting older, but still had little to no desire to have her own children. She had found her place. Comfortably living as an aunt to Thornfall's children. Even being one of the loudest to call out Cloverpaw and Tansypaw's names when they were apprenticed.
A moon later, an evening after the latest Gathering. Lichenclan stormed Redwoodclan's camp. She quickly raced from the warriors den losing sight of her brother, his mate, and their children during the battle. After the dust settled and Lichenclan had retreated.
Emberheart was found dead. She had been killed in battle and it was unknown which Lichenclan warrior had done it. Once again Pebblefoot found herself standing at her brother's side for another lost family member. Trying to comfort her niece and nephew at their mother's funeral. After Emberheart's death her brother fell into depression, her niece closed herself off from everyone, and her nephew became rebellious. Pebblefoot grew in touch with her maternal side and nursed her brother back to health. Rehabilitating him and pulling him out of the pit of depression.
