Thoughts on Cats: [Name (and role) - thoughts - Owner of OC]
Personality
Overview: Willow is very athletic and loves to do anything that has to do with running around. She’s in good shape and loves keeping herself in her prime. She finds things that help her do that that are enjoyable, like taking a run around the territory at different times. She’s also courageous, sometimes forgetting about herself to help someone else. She is too careless at times and doesn’t realize what she’s doing is dangerous and that she could hurt herself if she does it.
Willow is a very friendly cat. She loves talking to others and meeting new people. She doesn’t really care about what clans cats are in, though she knows her loyalty to her clan and will fight friends she makes in other clans. She enjoys meeting new people and almost always is seen talking to someone or surrounded by a group of cats. Some of this is due to her outspoken personality. She always says what she’s thinking, no matter the topic. She doesn’t care who hears her or what they think of her.
Willow is ambitious, and she has big dreams for her life. She wants to be the best warrior in her clan and become deputy and eventually leader. Going along with this, she’s very determined. These traits combined cause her to try very hard in all the things she does, whether it be hunting, fighting, doing a border patrol, or simply getting herbs for the medicine cat. She wants to be the best and she knows that in order to do that she has to practice a lot.
Because Willow is so ambitious and does her best in all that she does, she is a little arrogant. She does believe in her abilities and knows in her mind that she can do anything if she tries her hardest and never gives up. While she is arrogant at times, she isn’t against learning from her mistakes and being taught by others. Willow is also pretty boisterous to the point that she can be annoying to others. She loves being loud and rowdy and getting dirty. She doesn’t try to be rude to others or distract them but she sometimes does just that.
(Willow is very caring. She worries about others, and she feels sympathy for them when they’re in pain. She tries her hardest to be kind to everyone around her. She’s also clever, with a quick mind. She’s pretty smart and likes to come up with new ways of doing things. Often, people can’t tell she’s intelligent by looking at her. Willow is a very loyal cat. She sticks by her friends and her clan, for the most part. She doesn’t like betraying cats.
Willow is protective of those close to her. She doesn’t like seeing those she cares about being hurt, and so she often does all she can to keep that cat safe, even by putting her own life on the line. She’s also mellow, not really overflowing with energy. She likes to calm down, take life slow, and enjoy the little things. This can also make her somewhat soft spoken. Willow is a very private cat. She doesn't really talk about her feelings or her past that much. She just likes to keep her thoughts in her head.
Willow can get anxious at times, though she tries to hide this. Most of the time it’s all mental, and it’s mostly thoughts about her not being good enough. This also leads to her being easily discouraged. If she can't do something, she often ends up thinking it’s because she’s not good enough to be able to do it, and that she’s worthless. She’s also cautious, often thinking about things before acting. She’s careful with her words and actions, and often thinks about how others will perceive her if she does something before she actually does it. For the most part, she tries not to stand out.)

Mental Age: 24 moons

Outlook: Pretty positive (She sees life as a time to learn and observe those things around her)
Responsibility: 8/10 (9/10)
Cleanliness: 5/10 (9/10)
Generosity: 7/10 (7/10)
Manners: 6/10 (8/10)
Bravery: 9/10 (5/10)
More Logical or More Emotional?: Emotional, but a pretty good mix of both (Willow tends to be more logical, but there are times she chooses to follow her emotions instead)
Favorite Season: Greenleaf (Leafbare)
Favorite Food(s): Lizard (Frog)
Favorite Word: Any of them! She loves to talk! (None)
Favorite Sound: Cats talking (Wind rustling through the pine trees)
Greatest Hope: That she’ll become the best at everything she does! Warrior, mentor, deputy, leader, queen! (She'll be able to protect those around her and someday get revenge on her father)
Greatest Strength: Her boundless energy and ability to talk to anyone (Her calm disposition that allows her to make better decisions because she thinks about things)
Greatest Weakness: Her careless and somewhat arrogant nature (Her belief in what her father said to her when she was young)
Worst Nightmare (Dreamwise): Seeing her mother get brutally murdered by her father
Deepest Darkest Secret: She harbors dark feelings towards her father
Most Treasured Memory: Her family being close (during the early moons), playing with her brother, her close relationship with her mother
Goal: To become leader of a clan/group of cats in order to protect them to the best of her ability and to get revenge on her father for killing her mother
Motivation: There was a time where Willow wasn’t able to protect someone because she was scared about what would happen. She never wants that to happen again. She wants to kill her father because he killed the last cat that was close to her.
Willing to Risk to Reach Goal: Willow would risk anything, even her own life, to reach her goal, though she wants to earn the position through her actions to show that she deserves it
If Couldn’t Reach Goal: If Willow never reached her goal of becoming a leader, she would probably feel like she wasn’t being recognized or that she really wasn’t as capable as she thought. It would definitely hit her pretty hard. If she was unable to know for certain that Prickle was dead, she would feel racked with guilt
Internal Conflict: Willow always worries about if she isn’t strong enough or prepared enough to be able to protect those that she wants to protect. It’s something that’s constantly in the back of her head, like a tiny voice
External Conflict: Willow isn’t very strong or big, so she’s finding it pretty hard to be noticed by others for her accomplishments, especially by Dawnstar and any high ranks (This makes her feel even more inadequate)
Affects Goal: Both of these things will cause Willow to almost stop herself from moving forward, both mentally and in rank
How They Change: Willow might change a little over time, but not a lot. She’ll always struggle with not believing in herself, but she will get better about not hearing/listening to the voice that tells her she’s not good enough. Most of this change will happen because of her experiences and those around her
Suppressed Memories: Conversation between her parents as to why Prickle was changing, which leads to the eventual reason as to why Prickle murdered Lily
Quirk(s): She always laughs very loud, she hears a voice in her head (her father) that’s always telling her she’s not good enough
Nervous Tic: Shuffles paws
Uncertain Tic: Lifts one paw hesitantly
Exhausted Tic: Acts like she’s not tired, but her tail tends to get droopy/ drag on the ground
Theme Song(s): TBD
Background
Place of Birth: Shadowclan Nursery
Date of Birth: May 16th, 2020
Former rank(s): Kit, apprentice
Beliefs: Starclan, Darkforest
History: Kit - Willow and her brother Lightkit were born in SHC from her parents Lilystone and Prickleshade. Her whole family was very close, and her mother was a permanent queen. Lily’s and Prickle’s relationship was a close one and they were great parents. Willow was more timid than her brother, who was known for his outspokenness and ability to talk to anyone. She loved her brother and looked up to him, and he in turn cared for her and protected her. They were best friends and spent all of their time together. Although Willow was close to her brother, there were times when he would venture out on his own and do things/play games that Willow didn’t want to play. This caused her to be closest with her mother, Lilystone. Lily understood Willow in a way that Lightkit just couldn’t. Because of the closeness Willow had with Lily, Lightkit grew to have a closer relationship with his father, Prickleshade. Prickle and Willow weren’t very close, and over time she often felt like she wasn’t good enough for him. It seemed like Prickle was changing, though Willow had no idea why. Luckily, Lightkit seemed to be talented enough to please their father. When Willow was almost 6 moons old, about to become an apprentice with her brother, both of them caught Greencough. Both of them were close to death, but only Willow made it out of it.
Apprentice - Willow had gotten sick first, so she felt like it was her fault Lightkit got it and died. Adding to this, Prickleshade repeatedly told her that he wished that Lightkit had lived instead of her. Overtime, Willow started to believe that as well. When Lily found out what Prickle had been saying to her kit, she was outraged, and their already fragile relationship (caused by the changes in Prickle) shattered. In a fit of rage, Prickle left SHC, though he didn’t join any other clans. Willow felt like it was her fault her father left, but during this time, Lilystone helped her heal. She increased her confidence and decreased the amount of guilt Willow felt. They grew even closer during this time. Willow started to feel like she had to protect the few cats she was close to who were left. She didn’t want to lose her mother either. During the end of her apprenticeship, Willow and Lily went out on a hunt together. Out of nowhere, Prickleshade attacks Lily, killing her in front of Willow. At this point, Willow is completely shocked. Prickle tells her once again how worthless she is, that she couldn’t even protect her own mother, and then leaves. This experience shakes Willow deeply. She feels like she can’t protect anyone, not even herself.
Warrior - As a young warrior, Willow still struggles with self-doubt and a feeling of worthlessness. She starts to feel like she needs to protect the cats she has around her. Almost like it’s necessary to survive.

Interacts with others: When talking to other cats, Willow is friendly (in an attempt to be like her brother), but she tends to hide her real emotions and uncomfortability. It’s almost like she becomes an entirely different cat that isn’t her. She basically becomes like her brother (because of what her dad told her repeatedly as a kit). Because of this, she acts overly excited and upbeat all of the time
