*Name: Maplewing
*Age: 40 moons
*Gender: She-cat
*Overall Appearance: Maplewing is entirely white, except on the top of her head she has a deep orange/red patch. This extends to the tip of her ears and slightly down her forehead in a v-shape. She has medium-short length fur. Her tail is fluffy and white and of average length. Her eyes are a very light olive green and are big and round. Her whiskers are of average length and her nose is a soft pink. Her appearance is very simple and delicate, the orange patch giving her otherwise white fur some character.
*In-Depth Color: All of Maplewing's fur is a crisp white until you reach her head. On top is a deep orange/red patch that matches the color of the leaves duing Leaf-fall, which is where the prefix Maple- stems from. This covers her ears to the tip and also leaks onto her forehead in an upside down v-shape.
*In-depth Build: Maplewing is dainty, with average length legs and a slightly smaller than average size. Her fur does not add much volume to her, so she is more on the small side. Her body has clean lines and she is smooth looking, she has no protruding muscles or other features. Her head is round and small on top of her narrow shoulders.
*Personality: Maplewing has motherly characteristics that go with her dainty and sweet outward appearance. She is kind and gentle, never wanting to hurt anyone's feelings or have any other cats have ill feelings towards her. She does not like confrontation and tries to use her gentle, calm voice to get out of situations that involve it. She got the suffix -wing because of her lightheartedness. She tries to see everything in a positive light and does not hold grudges. She is eager to become a mother, because sitting in the nursery with suckling kits frolicking around is her absolute dream. This she-cat loves to help out in the nursery or in the elders den if there are no apprentices to do so, and is often times found in the nursery ooh'ing and aww'ing at the sweet kits. However, all of this sweetness leads to some negatives. Maplewing has a hard time saying no to anybody, so she often times finds herself doing things that are not ideal, like going on a patrol when she's not feeling well or taking on multiple apprentices when she is already overwhelmed. She also has a hard time accepting that everything in the world is not sunshine and butterflies. Of course she is aware when something isn't right but she tries to live peacefully for as long as possible and doesn't accept reality.
*+ Kind, gentle, lighthearted
*- Pushover, oblivious to reality
*; Motherly, non-confrontational
*Skill Paragraph: Maplewing's gentle characteristics make her a lousy fighter. Her dainty size makes her lack in the strength department and she doesn't have the fierceness necessary for a decent battle. She is more of a lover, and her nurturing skills far surpass her fighting ones. She is ideal for calming cats down in stressful situations or taking care of those who need it. She is a great climber and prefers to spend her days in the trees if she is not preoccupied with kits or her clan mates. Maplewing is also adept at jumping due to her small size but average length legs. She can leap high and far and typically hides out in the trees during battles if they are available or jumps to places other cats may not be able to reach. Her hunting skills are average; she is better at catching prey in the trees since she is so comfortable up in their branches. Her mentoring skills would best fit a cat that has similar jumping skills since you can't really teach great jumping, but you can give tips on climbing. Her swimming skills are average - she can make her way across a small body of water but can not tread water long due to her lack of strength. She prefers not to hunt in the water but she doesn't mind being near the waters edge. Sometimes she will even hunt from a tree and pounce on something that is in the water, although she is usually unsuccessful.

*Overall History: Maplewing was born to parents who really shaped her qualities. Like typical DappleClan cats, they were calm and tranquil. Her mother was extremely loving, her father was not mean but did not express his love very much. She was a decent apprentice, spending most of her time in the trees to scout the territory and to hunt.
*In-Depth History: Maplewing's mother was just like Maplewing...sweet, kind, and extremely caring for her own family and for the rest of her clan. She loved her mother immensely and wanted to be just like her when she became a warrior. Her father was more subdued with his feelings and almost never showed his love for his kits. He praised their accomplishments but hardly visited them in the nursery or interacted with them in a family way. Maplewing grew up not feeling good enough for her father, so she vowed to never have other cats in her clan feel that same way. She would be nurturing and supportive, like her mother, to her family and to the rest of the clan.
