StoneFall

LichenClan

a grey tom with light green eyes

Stonefall is a relatively average size for a cat in LichenClan. He is relatively lithe and nimble, unremarkable in his mass and structure. However, what does set him apart from other cats within the clan are his strong legs as he has a pension for water and fishing. As a result a lot of the muscle he does have can be found in his shoulders and forearms. 


Stonefall has soft medium sized light gray fur. His paws and chest are white. The bridge of his nose is also a lot lighter than the rest of his body. He's relatively solid in color with the exception of the white, though he does have some dark grey stripes running down his forehead. 



He has a round circular face with medium length ears. His eyes are a soft pale green, almost pastel in a sense. He also has long white whiskers and a dark grey nose.   

- Open-minded: It's not a popular opinion, but Stonefall doesn't care what one believes or where they came from. To him, it matters how they treat other people. He keeps it in his head for the most part, but Stonefall would rather get to know the cat before making judgements about them. This can cause problems for him, especially amongst his family and clan members. However, it also makes it so that he could understand difficult dilemmas, create better connections, and get along with practically anyone. 

- Caring: Stonefall is incredibly caring towards others, especially for those he loves and cares about. Despite not being bulky or great at fighting, he would put himself into a ring to protect his friends and loved ones. 

- Overthinks: He overthinks literally everything, and his worrying can keep him up at times when he should be sleeping. Whether the subject at hand is small or big, it doesn't matter. This causes him to be more cautious and he can be known to smother those he loves in fear that something bad could happen. 


- Absent-minded: Stonefall spaces out a lot, which might make him come across as being intentionally inattentive. It also makes it rather hard for him to keep track of time or to remember important details about dates and instructions. It's not that he doesn't want to remember or pay attention, it's just that sometimes he literally can't. 

- Stonekit was raised in a rather strict environment where he was chastised for the smallest things by his mother. Often discouraged from going out to see the world for himself, he grew  up in this tight bubble with a very limited view of the world. It didn't help that he got rather sick as a kit and had a hard time recovering, so he often watched other kits play from the safety of his nest. He also stuttered, to which his mother teased him for, which only made it much worse. 



-Once he was finally old enough to leave the nest, he embraced apprenticeship with open arms. It didn't stop him from being cautious though, although his mentor helped him break out of his shell. With the help of his mentor, he finally dared to break out of the bubble his mother trapped him in and ventured towards new thinking and development. Around this time, he struggled with conflicting thoughts about his religion, as well as making friends. As he was training he drew closer to his closest friend Dawnpaw, and became more confident in both himself and interacting with others. This newfound confidence put a strain on his relationship with his mom and they ended up becoming estranged at best. 



- The suffix was his mother's idea as she always told him that he fell from grace. But, as much as this hurts him, he is struggling to take the name in strides to make it his own, to make it into something other than what they intended. When he became a warrior, he decided to become the best cat that he could be, to be fair, and to follow StarClan, but in his own special way. He spends his days hanging out with DawnStone and hoping to prove his mother wrong.
