Swanblaze

A blue broken mackerel, tabby point she-cat with ghost markings and grey eyes

Swanblaze was a white, short-furred she-cat with very pale broken tabby markings which could only be seen in certain lighting. These tabby markings were thin and simple, lacking the intricacy many tabbies have, though the became quite visible once reaching her face, turning into a beautiful swirling pattern of grey.  She had pale, greyish eyes and had an average build, with slightly longer than average legs.

Swanblaze was a fierce yet determined she-cat, known for her strong love and fiery attitude. She was quite social, and capable of a good chat. She was a little bit of a flirt, but many could see that she was one to deeply value relationships. She was very determined to do the best for her clan, being an early riser along with volunteering for many patrols. Swanblaze was a hard cat to break, and little could upset her. She had classically admirable qualities, and someone her parents were proud to have created. Her strong mind and sense of self is something that completely contrasts that of her daughter. While Aspenberry still seems a little unsure of herself, Swanblaze knew exactly who she was, and what her place was in the world, which really highlighted her bright attitude. While she may have been bright, this didn’t necessarily mean she was an optimist. The took a more realistic approach to life, accepting things as they were and going with the flow.

Swanblaze was a senior warrior within her clan, who died during the kitting of her first litter. She had mated with Rooknose, the tom she fell in love with and both were excited to meet their offspring. She died from unknown complications. She had a pretty average life within WindClan, though she often liked to explore.

KITHOOD

As a kit, Swanblaze happily pottered around camp with her littermates, doing usual kit activities such as playing, feeding and sleeping. She took good care of her littermates, while not being absolutely boring, having the perfect mix of responsibility and playfulness. Her favourite activity was by far making up her own games, and she took a liking to acting as leader, though she wasn’t controlling about it, giving her siblings a fair share of time to shine.

APPRENTICESHIP

As an apprentice Swanblaze was as eager as an apprentice could get, constantly begging to go out an train, or volunteering for a patrol. She loved these activities, but what she did not like as much was some of the other apprentices duties, such as tick duties which she would do everything in her power to avoid. This lead to a more mischievous side of Swanblaze, and she often got on many of the senior cats nerves sue to her almost cocky attitude.

Despite this, she did well as an apprentice, proving herself many times over and earned her warrior name with pride

WARRIORHOOD

As she grew older, Swanblaze mellowed out, loosing most of her annoying, cocky attitude, though it was still evident that there was a mischievous spark flickering within her. She always tried her best, and took a strong liking to hunting, often begging cats to go out with her. She was active and always needed a good run or exercise to burn off some energy otherwise she would get irritated and snappy at the end of the day.

During around her 30th moon, it wasn’t long before her fellow clanmate Rooknose caught her eye. The two had grown up together as apprentices, but he hadn’t particularly stood out before. Maybe Swanblaze was lonely, or maybe she just really really liked him, but it wasn’t long before the two were constantly seen together. It was a surprise to see, as Swanblaze was know as a player, one to flirt and then get mad when someone starts to show interest in her, but with Rooknose it was different. She grew to love him, and Rooknose saw a new side of the firey she-cat that little got to see, and soon returned the affections. Swanblaze was shocked that she could feel something like this, and new that Rooknose must be special; the perfect cat to father her kits.

Despite Swanblaze being an active, almost erratic cat, settling down and having kits was something she always wanted, so she proposed the idea to Rooknose, who was honoured to be asked. She was completely healthy during her entire pregnancy up until birth where she died from both complications and sever bloodloss.
