Newtbelly is a little lacking in self-esteem, which can lead to a need to prove himself. He throws himself at challenges, yet often forgets the importance of typical chores. He finds it hard to truly relax and sometimes seems quite tense (yet non-confrontational). Furthermore, he values the opinion of his seniors first, which can lead to nativity in forming his own opinions, he assumes the best in others, especially his seniors. Conversely, he behaves pretty arrogantly when challenged or questioned by those younger than him.
Phobias: Sociability: Newtbelly is a cat of few words, he finds it hard to relax in social situations. Outlook: Naive and optimistic towards his seniors. Judgemental of younger cats and other clans. Responsibility: He thinks of himself as very responsible, due to his eagerness to help out with big and potentially dangerous tasks. However, he forgets about small things that really matter - it's certain to bite him in the tail soon.
Cleanliness: Newtbelly keeps himself and his nest incredibly clean, he takes great pride in this. Generosity: He doesn't quite understand how to be or why he'd be generous. It's not something that's crossed his mind. He's never intentionally greedy or closed off, but it's definitely perceived that way. Manners: He also prides himself on his manners - despite this, they slip away once challenged by anyone younger than him. Bravery: Newtbelly likes to put on a brave face, however he's often very nervous regarding big and dangerous tasks. More Logical or More Emotional?: Logical, he frequently bottles up emotions for the sake of logic.
Favorite Season: Greenleaf Favorite Food(s): Frog Favorite Sound: Crow song
Greatest Hope: Become an enforcer! Anything higher than that is a bit too scary for him. Greatest Strength: For a newer warrior, he's a decent tactical thinker. If he works on this properly, it could be promising. Greatest Weakness: He closes off from others and hides his emotions - another thing sure to bite him in the tail. Worst Nightmare: Being embarrassed in front of the whole clan: failing something important, or making a disastrous mistake Deepest Darkest Secret: As an apprentice, he ate a frog off the kill pile without realising he wasn't meant to, and he's still not over it. Most Treasured Memory: [tbd]
Quirk(s): [tbd] Theme Song(s): [tbd]
Background Season of Birth: Spring Former rank(s): kit, apprentice Beliefs: Believes in StarClan, but values the opinions of his clanmates over them and the Warrior Code. He believes anyone in power has earnt it fairly, and those without power aren't worthy.
Physical Traits Fur Color(s): Yellow Tortoiseshell - patchy brown-yellow tones Fur Texture: Not intensely soft, but not quite coarse. Fur Length: Medium Eye Color: Amber
Body Type/Structure: Built for endurance - toned, but not bulky or slim. Height: Shorter than average Weight: A bit lighter than average Voiceclaim: Walter O/Brien (Scorpion) Scent: Soft pine bark - earthy Gait: Stands a little awkwardly - tries to stand proud when addressing high ranks. He moves skulkily.
Coordination: Average for his age. Reflexes: Need improvement. He tries to guess what's coming next, unpredictable enemies are his worst nightmare. Strength: not physically strong, but good endurance (at his age at least - not as good as an older cat, of course.)
Seakit is a particularly calm individual - he goes with the flow, and, generally, whatever his sister wants. Normally, he's very confident and unbothered by those around him - he comes across as particularly aloof, which can sometimes be mistaken for shyness. When he appears shy, he's just stuck in daydreams - he loves to imagine stories and places. A lot of his time is spent imagining what it's like outside the RiverClan camp!
Despite his calmness, like most kits, excitement often overcomes him. He doesn't quite understand manners yet, or the fact that some cats are off put by lots of energy. He's quite good at invading space he might be unwelcome in.
Mental Age: same as current age Psychiatric Complications: Tendency to daydream both for fun as a coping mechanism - not at the level of maladaptive daydreaming and derealisation. He does experience symptoms very similar to derealisation when something reminds him of RiverClan's exile. Phobias:
Sociability: Shellkit loves to chat! Other cats = fun and friends! Outlook: Positive and optimistic! Responsibility: Severely irresponsible. He just does what he's told and doesn't think much further than that. 0000 idea that his actions have consequences. Cleanliness: Average Generosity: Selfish to a degree - he's used to sharing with his sister, but he's used to only sharing with his sister. Manners: Bad, but he knows not to pester the warriors/ high ranks Bravery: Safety in numbers! If another cat's backing him up, he'll do whatever. More Logical or More Emotional?: Emotional
Favorite Season: [planned, the guy's never seen spring] Newleaf! He loves Spring rain. Favorite Food(s):

content 2 note: a kit's experience of the RiverClan exile battle
- He and his sister Slamanderkit were born to (?) and Tinytoad just before RiverClan's exile.
- RiverClan is attacked - Seakit just about understands what's going on, but doesn't understand why.
- Mostly unscathed, his mother Tintoad returns from battle and ushers him and his sister to the abandoned twoleg den.
- Seakit is carried on the back of Deerspark for the journey. They don't talk due to Deerspark's face injury, however, he soon grows to see Deerspark as someone safe who he can trust.
- Alone with his thoughts on the journey, Seakit develops daydreaming as a coping mechanism.

Most Treasured Memory:
Though she comes across as shy at first, Bluebird just likes to survery the area, to know who she's dealing with. Some may call her distrusting, but she thinks of herself as wise - a couple bad experiences have taught her so. Around friends, Bluebird is bubbly and joyful; her caring nature towards young made her instantly gravitate towards a keeper role, and she loves it more than anything. Guiding the Young fills her with happiness, she somehow seems to have all the time and patience in the world with them. Bluebird takes time to understand what's bothering an angry kitten - after all, she was a particularly vicious kitten herself. She's not one to have a go at one of the young (unless she hears them critisice The Atari and it's structure), rather she'll ask them what's happening and why they're acting the way they do - how do they feel? What's making them feel this way? The keepers never thought to ask her such a thing at that age - she was simply told off, when she felt that she was defending The Atari. When she's not watching over the Young, she likes to search for flowers and visit Glimmerall - the water intrigues her. Bluebird is fascinated by the ocean below Pointbreak and dreams of visiting it, the beach seems such a lovely place, but she'd dared not leave the territory. Born in the Atari, Bluebird belives deeply in the 'natural order of things' - tradition is intensely important to her.
When faced with conflict, Bluebird is more than able to assert herself - that is, if she belives it's worth it. In her years as an initiate she was quick to pick a fight, but she's since learnt her lesson. Sometimes, she's realised, it's better to ignore 'pests' and not stoop to their level. Despite being a keeper, she isn't scared of a fight - you best know, if the claws needed assistance she'd be happy to step in (though it may take a lot of arguing for the claws to allow it). Her loyalty to the Atari is till her death and she's willing to prove that. But what causes her to lash out? First of all, any sign of disdain for the way the Atari is run fills her with rage. As an initiate, she would lose it over one little complaint - now? She tires to ignore such things, unless they grow. Alongside this, any unkindness to her friends can send her into a frenzy - even if said friend isn't too bothered. Overreacting on the behalf of someone else is certainly a habit of hers. What else? An unrecognisable cat in Atari territory would soon be met with her claws, even if they were clearly much stronger than her. Dying a matyr is okay by her - that and she'd overestimate herself, assuming her loyalty to The Atari is enough to fuel her through such a battle. Bluebird thinks highly of herself, she belives she's wise beyond her years - she has lots to learn: her fierce loyalty and tendancy to overestimate her own skills could easily place her in the worst of positions.

Backstory
HUGE WIP - Just bullet points at the moment! Also hasn't been typo checked
- kithood - a handful
- initiate beginnings, discoordinated but passionate. Encouraged to be a trapper due to this, but is adamant that Claw's the best option. A handful, picking fights.
- 9 moons, scoliosis officially diagnosed [not named this of course - but noted as something by the healer(s)] and stated as a cause for her lack of balance
- still working hard, but she starts helping the keepers for fun. She realises it calms her down and keeps her out of trouble.
- 10 moons, starts helping the Keepers more, helps to calm down any Young who are a handful as much as she is. Realises the importance of raising Young, and wonders if this could be her main way of serving The Atari.
- Back pain from battle training increases, and she becomes set on becoming a keeper.
- 11 moons, asks family if she can train under The Keepers instead.
[Please note!! Bluebird's experience with scoliosis is based off my own in real life <3 Any problems with how it's dealt with, please let me know!]

Stirring leaves in the wind that pass you by. Never making a mark, they simply fly. You never notice all they do, nor do they notice it themself. Simply drifting, waiting for what's to come. What is to come? Years of failure and missed opportunities? Or years of opportunities lept at with open paws?

Draft backstory:
Overall, Darkleaf was well parented. Rockheart is a particularly respectable warrior, and has a very no-nonsense approach to most things. Darkleaf often strived to impress her parents, which came in the form of trying to be as helpful as possible. Through this, they became a bit of a perfectionist and a workaholic. Despite this, she wasn't all work - she still loved to chat and play. During her apprenticeship, she struggled more with fighting than anything else. The unpredictability and fast-paced nature was challenging for them. At 23 moons, she mentored Owlthroat, which, at first, she thought would be a breeze. In some ways, she was right - Owlthroat didn't need to be told to do anything twice. Despite this, they observed just how closed off he was. This was only furthered when he lost his sister. On the day of the incident, she tried her hardest to stop him from blaming himself, but it was almost like walking to a stone wall. It was as if Owlthroat went from closed off to impossible. He may have flown through his apprenticeship, but Darkleaf couldn't help but feel that she'd failed him.
Darkleaf's spent the rest of her warrior hood just trying to get on with things. She hasn't had an apprentice since Owlthroat - she was initially terrified, but now? She'd love to try again. Furthermore, they try to speak with Owlthoat when they can - they don't know what to do about him, but they don't think he's a lost cause.
