Don't stand aside while people make demands.
At first they'll take your liberties,
Then tie them 'round your hands.
Owltail
68 MOONS · FEMALE · PINEclan · DEPUTY ∙ UNDISCLOSED - pelt : Brown Tabby
- eyes : Golden
- build : Long . Lean
- other : Owltail bears various half-healed scars on her shoulders and face from intermittent periods of conflict with other cats.
- brief description : Brown tabby she-cat with golden eyes.
appearance - general : Despite having mellowed considerably over her many seasons, Owltail is still a sizzling firecracker of a cat in both energy and personality. Passionate, opinionated, and filled with an enduring spirit which compels her to remain on her feet from predawn until dusk, her presence in camp is hard to miss. Owltail is outspoken at best; at worst she is opinionated and loud. She's the best cat to seek out if one needs an ally against a bully or aggressor, specialising in feline conflict of all flavours and varieties. But while she is an indispensable help to Clanmates who need someone to speak up or raise a claw on their behalf, cats seeking to take advantage of certain elements of the Warrior code find her vigilance stiflingly irritating. Owltail loves nothing quite so much as shaking up the status quo, and older Clan members may recall her younger moons with a touch of disgruntlement. Chances are that Owltail still bears sore feelings towards a few of them as well.

- Owltail is a talented duelist, one of the better warriors in the Clan to bring on a battle patrol. Her preoccupation with Clan politics feeds into her skill with besting feline opponents, but her hunting abilities and combat skills when facing a non-feline opponent are no better than average.
personality - history : Owltail was born in the darkness of leaf-bare, the only kit in her litter. Her first few moons of life were permeated with cold and hunger despite the best efforts of her father and mother, but come newleaf Owlkit had grown resilient and was ready to face the other challenges that life had to throw at her. Snakenose and Duskpelt both doted on their daughter, even after the weather became mild and prey grew plentiful once more. She enjoyed being extremely spoiled for the latter half of her kithood. This was when her outgoing nature truly began to emerge and flourish, encouraged by the freedom her parents allowed her and their endless encouragement to pursue her own interests.
By the time greenleaf was in full swing Owlkit felt more than ready to begin her training with the other PineClan apprentices. She eagerly accepted her new name at six moons of age and began training under her mentor Rainfang, soaking up his teachings about hunting and stalking, but most of all living for the occasions when she accompanied him on border patrols. Owlpaw was endlessly curious about the extent of PineClan's territory and fascinated with what lay beyond it. She liked to catch the scent of their neighbouring Clans and attended her first gathering with a great deal of excitement. Speaking with other cats who didn't share PineClan's culture and ideals was a tantalising opportunity, and one she hoped to repeat every single moon.
It wasn't until partway through her apprentice training that Owlpaw showed any interest at all in the politics of her own Clan. Up until then she'd assumed that Geckostar's judgement was infallible, and had trusted the older warriors to manage patrols and confer on important decisions, but when she was eight moons old Rainfang lost an eye rescuing a kit from the coils of a rogue python. During the Clan meeting that was held to celebrate his bravery, Geckostar bestowed him with the new name of One-eye as a testament to his selfless act. Although the name was indicative of his greatest achievement in saving the life of another Clan-member, One-eye begrudged the change of name, feeling as if he'd lost a portion of his identity in the process.
Owlpaw's mentor encouraged her to use her own judgement more and more as she grew, even when that meant questioning the decisions of her superiors. This lead to a few good-natured arguments between the two of them and more than a few spats involving other warriors whom Owlpaw interfaced with. Owlpaw nevertheless graduated quickly, maintaining a close relationship with her old mentor and even enjoying a few moons of mutual romance with him. But she was well known throughout her first few seasons as a warrior as the Clan's resident hellraiser with a fondness for encouraging insubordination in her peers. It was many moons before Owltail learned to further her ideals in a way that didn't cause so much discord within the Clan.
Owltail's reputation within the Clan improved gradually. As she had no compunctions about socialising freely with the younger members of PineClan, apprentices and younger warriors began to seek her out for advice and assistance. She became a mentor for the first time at 32 moons of age, after her investigation into a squabble between a trio of apprentices led to the discovery and subsequent cessation of a rash of fresh-kill disappearances. Owltail tutored her pupil for five moons and attended her warrior ceremony with pride. She went on to mentor another apprentice the following year, but returned to her normal warrior duties after he graduated from the apprentices' den. It was many a moon before Geckostar finally lost her last life and her deputy Tinystar stepped up as leader. Owltail accepted the position of PineClan's new deputy the very next evening.
