Personality: Cloudwalker's personality was very different a long time ago, but now she's settled and happy. She's always caring for other cats before herself; even if she was dying, she'd want to know that everyone else was alright. She tends to worry a lot, and always likes to give good advice or hints. Sometimes she's called paranoid, but she's just trying to be careful. Her past experiences have influenced her personality as it is now a lot. She doesn't often have a lot of trust for other cats outside of the five clans, especially Shards. Nonetheless, she believes truly that good can come from any cat, even the most evil. She used to be scared, fearful; now, although she is always scared for other cats- kits, apprentices, warriors, their deputy and leader; she can be extremely brave. In circumstances when another cat would be in danger, she will always throw herself in the way, or do anything she can to stop something bad from happening. Nowadays, she's almost never caught with a smile, and reminds many cats of a kind elder, even though she's actually the SkyClan Medicine Cat.
Description: Cloudwalker is a completely white cat, except for the very tip of her tail, which is brown, and her paws, which are a tan colour. Her fur is semi-long, and her nose is pink. Her eyes are two different colours; her right eye is an amber colour, and her left eye is a light blue. In size, she's not that big; about the average size for a full grown cat. However, she's extremely flexible, able to fit through the tinest of cracks, or between tree branches. This comes in handy for evasive maneuvering; she's not very powerful or strong, so if she ever does find herself in a battle, she will always dodge attacks until she can find a sure and guaranteed hit on another cat. She hates any sort of violence, unless it's for fun with sheathed claws.
History: The night Cloudkit was born to Jayflower and Runningheart, two SkyClan warriors, she lost almost all of her immediate family. Her mother died giving birth to her, and her father and only brother, Mosskit, were killed shortly after by Shards cats who had just started an attack on camp. Dewleaf, the medicine cat at that time, had managed to take Patchedkit and Cloudkit away from the fray, leaving them; newborn kits; in a small, secluded shrub in order to keep them safe. Not long after, they were found and taken back to camp. As kits, they had a foster mother to get their milk, but as apprentices, they were very well alone besides the rest of the clan. Cloudkit always felt especially alone, what with her strange eyes. Patchedkit was a regular tabby, but Cloudkit was all white, and simply put, different. At 6 moons, they were apprenticed; at the beginning, Cloudkit became a medicine cat apprentice, while Patchedkit became a regular warrior apprentice. For a long time, Cloudpaw learned all of the herbs, and knew them well. She did a good job learning about how to be a medicine cat, but watched her sister progress enviously. She wanted to fight. So, she quit her duties, saying that she thought she'd do better as a regular apprentice. Dewleaf accepted her resignment in understanding. Patchedpaw became Patchedsky easily, and before Cloudpaw, because she had waited so long. Her mentor, Charcoalfur, did his best to train her up, and finally she became a warrior, named Cloudwalker. He died a little while after of Blackcough; he was a very old cat, around 70 moons. Although she had wanted to, she could not sit vigil for him; his mate and a former apprentice who was closer to him sat vigil instead. She loved this life very much so, but always felt a twang of guilt whenever she saw Dewleaf, and she would always ask the medicine cat if she needed help. Dewleaf's reply was constantly "No, thank you." Sadly, she continued on being a warrior, until she met Aspenheart, another warrior of SkyClan. They began to hang out together a little more, and finally became mates. Cloudwalker had two kits, named Fastkit and Stormkit, on the night of another Shards attack. Her mate, both of her kits, Dewleaf, and Patchedsky were the only cats to die that night. All of them related to Cloudwalker, and the white she-cat became distressed, extremely sad, and more lonely than she'd ever been before. At this point, she was about 30 moons. The next morning, she realized that the Clan was without a medicine cat, and without hesitation, asked to become the SkyClan medicine cat, even knowing that she would never get the chance to fall in love again or have kits. So she became medicine cat, and promised herself that she would forget about the past and start over, where she should have been all along.
