Friend(s)

ShadowClan
Hawkbite
Also known as Sir Bits. Starry's mentor, and one of the best enforcers in ShadowClan, second only to his dear Auntie Larky. The warrior is honorable and always looking out for the clan. Not only that, but he looks after Starry as a proper mentor should, something Mousepaw never had the luck in experiencing, but happy to see his friend in such capable paws. Much like with his auntie, Mousepaw looks up to Hawkbite and hopes to be like him when he's grown up. Now that Silverlark has become an enforcer besides Hawkbite, his appreciation for the tom has grown more, knowing him as a sturdy rock that helps balance and maintain ShadowClan as well as an esteemed friend. Rumors have stated, however, that he recently got into trouble with Dawnstar due to going against her wishes and plotting against her besides Yellowtwist and Mistlewhisker. While the young enforcer would usually not believe such obvious lies about his friends, Yellowtwist's presence in the situation does give him pause and makes him wonder if maybe he doesn't know his friend as well as he thinks he does.

Neutral

ShadowClan
Darkfall
Fellow guard, enforcer, and connoisseur of fun fighting techniques. Overall a great clanmate to hang around with, either on the battlefield or just loafing around camp... which granted neither is caught doing very often to begin with. The tom is Lostspark's mate, but despite his connections with a cat he is less than amicable with, he doesn't hold it against Darkfall, instead appreciating the fact that the tom is a good father and mate unlike his own father and grandfather were.

Acquaintance(s)

ShadowClan
Dawnstar
ShadowClan's leader. A cat that Silverlark highly respects for both her intellect and her ability to keep the clan thriving even in the worst of times. Most cats consider her scary, but having met her as a very young apprentice and even taught important skills by her, the enforcer considers her a stern cat in the worst of days.
Lostspark
The ShadowClan medicine cat. While Silverlark was once close to the she-cat to the point of asking to be named for her, his relationship with her stopped the day he turned warrior, with Lostspark all but forgetting his existence. Understanding she has a family to take care of and that there is no more room in her life for someone like him, the enforcer has willingly kept his distance, thinking little of the cat he once loved like family.
Mistlewhisker
Fellow enforcer with a mean strike capable of taking down a fox. Rumors say that Whisk took down the despicable Shadefrost during a duel once, and Silverlark has been mildly star struck by the warrior ever since. As of late, however, he worries about her association with Yellowtwist, wondering if perhaps she has decided to befriend the traitor and follow after his ways.
Yellowtwist
Worthless, nonsensical apprentice who believes himself to be above Dawnstar's law. Considering his eagerness to butter up and talk to enemy warriors while breaking the rules himself, Silverlark considers him a flaky clanmate at best and a traitor in the making.
Nightshiver
Nursery queen. A lovely, soft spoken molly whom Mousepaw entrusted with looking after his little sister whenever he isn't around to do so himself.
Flashpaw
Silverlark's second apprentice. A little quiet and shy, but fun fun. Silverlark worries about Flashie ever since she let him know that she is losing her hearing in one of her ears, knowing that the loss is affecting her emotionally. While he cannot understand what she is going through, he stays optimistic in his belief that she will be a great warrior, unable to see how her partial deafness will make her any less of an awesome she-cat.

Disliked

ShadowClan
Shadefrost
Silverlark's second mentor, and one of the cats he is most disgusted by in his clan. Seeing the tom as little more than a narcissistic, traitorous bully and murderer, the enforcer does his best to keep well away from the tom.

+Personality+

Traits
Honorable
Mousepaw is guided by a self imposed sense of honor, one that was dictated by what he learned was right and wrong from his mother. As such, no matter how much he might hate a cat, he always strives for loyalty and fair play among his fellow ShadowClanners. Even when fighting against cats from other clans, Mousepaw might hesitate before using something he deems an unfair advantage against an opponent unless there is another cat's life on the line. The gray tom will always use any means necessary to save the life of an ally.

Decisive
Or stubborn. Either word works rather wonderfully for this gray tom. Mousepaw makes his mind up quickly about things, whether he likes something or not, whether something is safe or not, or if someone deserves their time or not. Changing his mind, however, is not as speedy a thing, and can at times prove almost impossible. The ShadowClan tom is not so stubborn that he is unwilling to change his views, but unfortunately he is stubborn enough to make the process long and tedious at best. This works for both his positive and negative opinions, becoming savagely irritated and almost violent when prodded to question someone he is loyal to and quick to dismiss good qualities of someone he has deemed irredeemable, even if his original impressions were erroneous in some way.

Hardworking
In his desperate need to become his own cat and prove his own worth - and hopefully further distance himself from his grandfather in his mother's eyes - Mousepaw is a hardworking kit, always eager to lend a helping paw and working tirelessly, even when at the point of physical duress.

Trusting
When Mousepaw decides he dislikes someone, he dislikes that cat for no reason other than because they dislike them, even if the cat proves time and time again that Mousepaw is wrong in his original assessment, being slow and stubborn in his willingness to change his view. Another negative to this decisiveness is when his original impression of a cat is positive in nature when the cat might overall not be a good influence in the apprentice's life. No matter how hurt or terrible the apprentice might feel in the presence of this negative force in his life, he will obtusely defend the other cat's actions, trusting them blindly for no reason other than because he likes them, and he believes that if he liked them once, there is no reason to change that over one instance of less than stellar interactions. This makes him quite easy to manipulate and mold by anyone he trusts, usually only able to brake out of an abusive situation if insistently helped by another cat that is also amongst his trusted allies.

Optimistic
Mousepaw is a prey-pile-is-half-full kind of tom. Life is good, and while not every cat is a wonder to behold - Elmshadow, this is entirely directed at Elmshadow - ShadowClan is just a good place to be in. There are so many fun cats, so many friends, and so much joy and playtime ever day! This optimism wavered after his mother died, growing bitter and resentful, twisting his heart with a darkness that he did not know he had. His friends and family did not allow him to remain within his shell, however, and he saw that even when one is at their lowest point, one can always count on their loved ones to see you through even the roughest of times.

Fun-Loving
Everything is a game in Mousepaw's eyes. Things as mundane as cleaning can be loads of fun. You just have to be in the fun frame of mind! Even as he's matured, his love for finding the fun in everything has remained. No matter how many moons he's got, play time seems to be all the time as far as this tom is concerned.

Responsible
Matching his hard working demeanor, Mousepaw is a responsible apprentice. He believes diligence is the mark of a good warrior, and a responsible clanmate takes care of those around him. Of course, there is never any harm in making one's work fun! It's all in the frame of mind with which one tackles the daily tasks.

Phobias
-
Quirk(s)
Wrestler
Mousepaw has a rather unique fighting style, enjoying taking to the air and slamming down on opponents, grappling, and take downs more so than using claws and teeth. There is an almost playful form to his fighting style that might put hardened fighters at ease, underestimating his resilience, strength, and own expertise.
