Name of Leader: Brightstar
Age of Leader: 41 moons
Clan of Leader: LittleClan
Gender of Leader: She-cat
Lives Left: 7 lives left
Appearance: Brightstar's pelt is a thick bright golden shade with tips of smoky grey. She is lean and extremely fit from moons of training and pushing herself to her limits. Her paws are big and silent, hiding hooked claws that can easily tear a cat apart. Her teeth are pearly white, and long. Being extremely sharp and strong; not many want to face her in battle.
The she-cat's long tail is very plume-y with thin black rings around it getting close together as they near the tip of her tail until they come together in an dark arrow shape. Her paws are dusted with more smoke-y hairs, but even though the dark hairs cover her body, it makes the gold underneath seem to glow brightly -- leading to her name.
The same hue of her pelt, her eyes are a molten gold color that glow like two luminous suns at night. They strike fear into hearts if seen close up in battle and to see them means certain pain for any cat in a Clan outside of LittleClan.
Personality: She may seem rash and is partly guided by her emotions, but Brightstar makes a fine leader. Her head is levelly placed and she is cool in times of intense stress. She is not considered a 'hot head' because she always contemplates on her actions and their reactions unless of course she feels strongly about something; she'll be blinded by emotion. She has no fear; she is unflinching, even against impossible odds and stands her ground always, never giving up.
Merciful and almost loving to her Clan, but spiteful and biting to the others, Brightstar is clever and quick, revelling in action and hates sitting around waiting for something to happy. She has a soft spot though it is small and locked away by intense protectiveness and strength; she will not tolerate any of her Clan hurting kits or apprentices in fights -- at least, not too badly.
As a rule, Brightstar listens to what her clan has to say, and does what she thinks is best for them -- whether they think it is a good idea at the time or not. She can be stubborn for what she believes in and tries to rival Poppystar's fame with her own to be the best leader that she can. And even though she hides it; Brightstar has a streak of greed in her; for better territories, better food, better shelter...
History: Born to the golden-furred queen Goldpelt, Brightkit was a gift from StarClan it seemed. She didn't get into trouble unless it was something that brushed the wrong way against her beliefs, she never ran away and seemed to take orders and requests well from her superiors. She even organized the Nursery to make moving around more convinient and comfortable for the queens and their young ones.
Brightkit did not 'play' like a little kit should; she planned out her life, mapped it out with the end of it ending at 'Leader; Brightstar'. The she-kit seemed to have a strong will and was determined; if she said she'd do something, she'd do it. The fearless kit soon became a handful when young apprentices and the older kits challenged her to duels and she fought, most times winning.
Many warriors saw potential in her, but they thought that she'd be too much of a hassle; too willful. But when Brightkit became Brightpaw under Fleetfoot, a strong she-cat, she took her orders as they came to her; even ones she hated.
As young she-cats her age picked out the most handsome toms and struck up relationships with them, pretty Brightpaw evaded them like a plague; they'd only complicate and interfere with her plan; they'd want to have kits if it developed further, and kits were not part of the plan. She would not be redused to an emotional, weak queen. Never!
She breezed through her training with ease, bringing down even her mentor (who was as fast as her name stated) after a while in battle practices and even taking down a fox (young though) when she was hunting. Soon, it became apparent that this she-cat was to be come a warrior.
On a snowy sunset, Poppystar beckoned her forth and said to her the words that marked her as a warrior, no longer a aspiring apprentice. From that evening she was known as Brightflash. The young warrior was eleven moons old, yet wiser beyond her moons. She was soon tested when a badger ambushed her and some of her Clanmates on a patrol and earned her name once more.
A few moons passed, and Brightflash became restless. But then, the death of Hawkeye came into the picture. Poppystar was without a deputy -- who would she choose? Brightflash did her best to get the leader's attention, she went on more patrols than anyone, gave fresh kill to the elders and queens, hunted longer and tried to show her devotion in every motion.
It worked. Brightflash was named deputy of LittleClan under the old she-cat Poppystar. Until she was 36 moons of age she was deputy; but then, the unthinkable happened. Poppystar passed away.
Brightflash was shocked, stunned, she was to be leader? Her dreams, aspirations, hopes, they came true? The medicine cat lead her to the MoonCave and there, Brightflash shared tongues with StarClan for the first time. When she awoke, she was Brightstar, leader of LittleClan, and she planned on making it better.
Brightstar had lost the first of her lives when ambushed by a boarder patrol; a warrior (she doesn't know who) accused her of spying and without warning lead his patrol to attack hers. Brightstar was fighting another warrior when one slunk behind and sunk his teeth into her throat.
The second life she lost was when her apprentice had been
trying to fish and a branch swept her into the river. Brightstar leapt in and saved the apprentice by holding her head above the water and putting her on the shore before getting swept away by sheer exhaustion and drowning. Not fun.
Why Leader?: Brightstar should be leader because she is devoted; everything and anything she has to give she be handed over without question to he Clan. She puts her all in leading and tries to ensure safety, shelter, food, and water to LittleClan. She is intelligent and fiercely protective, and will not stand down if another Clan demands something of her (as in taking prey) -- her own Clan needs it, they want it, and they'll get it.
Why You?: (I don't want to brag or sound stuck up or anything;) I am literate, and have roleplayed for three years so far. I have been on many Warriors sites and have been deputies and medicine cats, warriors, apprentices, kits and queens, but I've never been a leader -- but I would like to try it.
I will always try to get on and if I cannot, I have a reason why or why not I cannot post.
So... much <--- Adorable lil' smilie! xD
