LichenClan
Red and cream calico she-cat with long fur
Apprentice
female
11 moons
Appearance
In terms of size, Rosemarypaw isn't anything special. The young cat is of average build, not too big but not too small. She doesn't think much of her size because of this, and many do not note it when taking in her appearance. However, she has taken a curious desire to building muscle. Strength is of the upmost importance to her, and she exercises frequently to build such stature. Due to the length of the fur, you must see her wet or feel it personally to see the full extent of her work.
Unlike her stature, her pelt is one to remember. While similar to her sister in the sense that she is a dilute calico, her reddish over tones is particularly eye catching in the sun, as if flames dance of her back. Streaks of dark brown, white, and cream interlace in a stern, bold pattern. Fortunate for her in times of snow, her fur is long and flowing, keeping her insulated in harsh chill. Rosemarypaw's fur is always carefully kept and soft, to fail to be would be considered a sin.
Upon her face, she dawns more grey and pale orange, creating close to a 'split-face' look, though less intense than in other cats. This almost mask-like markings surround leaf green eyes, always seeming to glint with some sort of petty amusement. Finally, a bright white muzzle helps bring her whole appearance together, a stark contrast to the darker features and stripes upon her face.

Personality
Strong Willed: [+] Though some may see this as a negative, Rosemarypaw is incredibly strong willed, and this applies to every aspect of her life. To be the best, to make your clan stronger, that all requires a strong need for achievement and a large helping of grit.
Flirty: [+] A favorite pass time of the she-cat is the use of flirt to charm her clanmates. This ranges from friendly flirting to borderline over sexual. She prides herself on the fact she can flirt with any cat at anytime. Be careful to not fall for her charms.
Apathetic: [-] One of the downsides to Rosemarypaw is her extreme lack of any sort of empathy. Death doesn't faze her, and nor does injury or emotional pain. Weakness disgusts her, and any emotions she deems as sad or pathetic will cause her the desire to create more in the victim so hopefully they either get lost or grow out of it. This leads to an extreme level of cruelty in battle.
Fanatical: [-] When Rosemarypaw does take an interest in something, she is obsessed with it. Following in Minnowstar's footsteps, she is obsessed with the purity of StarClan, and imposing it on other clans such as RedwoodClan.

History
From the beginning, Lavenderpaw and Rosemarypaw could not have been more different. Lavenderpaw took after their mother, Littlestream. Rosemarypaw after her father, Silvertooth.
Born in the late newleaf, Rosemarykit was born to the weak willed and soft she-cat whom she would soon grow to hate. Her sister, Lavenderkit, was not much better. The pair of them were weak and quivering, Rosemarykit soon saw. This made for good practice for the young she-kit. As soon as her claws could extract, the bully-to-be used her sister as target practice. It was soon clear who was stronger, louder, bolder. And though she didn't see her father often, she took his death hard and vowed to never die from the same fate.
Rosemarykit eagerly listened to the words of Minnowstar, soaking in the words of brutality and righteousness in like a wet sponge. From the first speech to now, it was never a doubt in her mind that her leader was right in every word. When the cat that was technically her mother brought herself and Lavenderkit to the caves to speak badly of Minnowstar, her patience ran thin and soon, she refused to participate in such traitorous events.
When her mother became ill, shortly before her naming ceremony, Rosemarykit participated in the death rituals mainly due to the pressures of the other adults around her. When her mother finally passed she felt nothing but disgust for her final words. Tucking this inside her, Rosemarykit was eager to become an apprentice.
When she became Rosemarypaw, an apprentice to Lightwater, she was pleased. The cat fit well with the close clique of Minnowstar followers and soon she found herself obsessed with the deputy, Hemlockheart. Working daily to try and impress the much older tom, Rosemarypaw trained hard nearly every day of her apprenticeship. Eager to get closer to him, she befriended his apprentice, Leopardpaw.
