YELLOWFERN
-*-
{✿·✿·✿}
]*|✿|*[
she-cat : 31 moons : mistclan warrior : demi/heterosexual
APPEARANCE: {classic ginger silver tabby}
Yellowfern has a short, smooth pelt of pale ginger fur, marbled with wide dark stripes and pale, almost fawn-colored swirls in between, giving her coat a frosted glass look. Though overall pale, her chin and paws are distinctly so, being white or near it. Her nose is a dark salmon color, and almost perfectly formed in the distinct "mushroom slice" shape of the stereotypical cat. Her whiskers are long and pale, stretching forward from her muzzle like a wizened mustache.
In build, she is of average height, with a lithe, lightweight body type supported by long, slender legs atop small and delicate paws. This lends a sort of grace and precision to every movement she makes.

PERSONALITY:
{positive; loyal, generous, empathetic, hard-working, brave, family-oriented}
{negative; sarcastic, fealty to family, strictly traditional, morally high-horsed}
As the firstborn of a litter of three, she grew up with certain expectations placed upon her, and she aimed to live up to them with aplomb, serving as a dependable sort of "anchoress" for her family and particularly for her siblings. Always aiming to be an "A-student", Yellowfern works hard and plays harder, but cannot abide half-hearted work nor cheating- she insists on an honest competition in all aspects of work and battle.
Ever traditional and loyal to something of a fault, even when her family split she couldn't abandon Silversplash or MistClan. Indeed, without an utter catastrophe or a tyrant ruler, Yellowfern would probably never leave MistClan unless it was to follow Silversplash somewhere.
Brave and steadfast in the face of danger, Yellowfern will not flinch nor cower in a bad situation, and will offer herself as defense to those who need it- though not in a suicidal charge, but just long enough for her companions to either regroup and join back in or fall back enough for her to turn and rejoin them. In all her life, Yellowfern has had only two moments of hesitation- one moment was when she chose not to convince Auburnfur to stay anymore, and the last was when she decided to keep quiet about her plans to reunite them from Silversplash.
Though patient and understanding, Yellowfern believes humor is an integral part of living, and regularly jokes with and mutually mocks her fellow warriors, all in good fun and with no malice intended. Snark is her favorite tool of the trade, and she can't help but slip in a few remarks even in serious conversations. A little honey helps the bitter roots go down, her mother once told her when she was sick.
Though she believes staunchly in the code, her own experiences have softened her attitude when it comes to matters of family, and while she doesn't condone actively forging inter-group relations, she will help such families meet and keep in touch if they're already established.
Though generally steadfast, she tends to cow before her sister Silversplash, being too soft on her and unwilling to put her paw down too firmly.

HISTORY:
Yellowkit was quiet and a little awkward, stuck between her instinct to play and be carefree and her sense of obligation to set an example for her siblings and keep an eye on them. By the time she was apprenticed, she had settled into her role of advising and supporting her sisters.
Yellowpaw was kind and hard-working, tempering her wit with a genuine desire to help others around her improve- "deputy mentor" Daisytail had called her. However, she failed to notice that Auburnpaw's lack of confidence wasn't from inexperience, but from a feeling of being overshadowed. While Yellowpaw never minded that Silverpaw was seemingly innately talented at most skills(though not quite so at speaking and making friends), she didn't realize how much Auburnpaw wanted to shine too, and to this day she somewhat blames herself for not recognizing it sooner.
Yellowpaw was named Yellowfern for her guiding, gentle nature and endurance.
When Auburnfur left MistClan to try her luck at shining out as an individual in MothClan, Yellowfern was broken-hearted, but felt she must continue to uphold the family. While Auburnfur was the youngest, she was clearly independent, and ultimately Yellowfern knew she had to stay with Silversplash and keep her on a good path- and maybe, convince her to forgive their sister.
Other notes; a skilled hunter, but lacks an edge in combat due to a refusal to learn skills she saw as underhanded
