Wrentalon

A muscular brown tabby tom with hazel eyes and a scarred shoulder

Wrentalon is a brown mackerel tabby tom. He looks rather similar to his littermate, Tigerrush, albeit bigger and more muscular. His fur is short and fluffy, billowing out more at his tail which turns black halfway to the tip, the tips of his ears and his paws are also black. A cream belly stands out against the rest of his dark fur, and his eyes are a yellowish-brown. A few scars are littered over his body but one prominent one stands out on his left shoulder.

Wrentalon is always ready for a fight, and his overconfidence leads him to believe he will always win. As an apprentice he was hyperfixated on learning to fight, making him lack in other skills like hunting, but his focus paid off in creating a brave and avid fighter for his clan. His emotions guide him for better or for worse, and he frequently relies on others’ direct intervention to guide him in his actions. Wrentalon is stubborn and close-minded, along with being blunt and underestimating the abilities of others.

He treats Tigerrush differently however. His sister is someone to be protected above all else no matter the cost. He’s clearly happy about her being Thunderclan’s medicine cat, and is frequently awed by her close connection to Starclan. He attributes her survival of kit cough to Starclan’s luck, and thus holds a deep reverence for their starry ancestors.

In the Moon of First White (2018), a queen named Cottonlily gave birth to three kits. One died while the other two, a tom named Wrenkit and a molly named Rushkit, survived. He often tried to coax his sister to explore and play games with him, until she fell ill with a serious bout of kit cough while still young. Wrenkit did not understand why she grew weak and pained, and he watched his mother’s sadness grow as they nearly lost her. By some miracle, Rushkit was able to pull through and make a full recovery, making Wrenkit quickly realize how much her death would have hurt him and Cottonlily. Determined to grow strong enough to protect his family, Wrenkit watched the warriors as much as he could to learn even before apprenticeship.

At last he became an apprentice. Despite working hard in almost all his training he only seemed truly enthusiastic about learning how to fight and excelled in that skill because of it. Early on in  his apprenticeship he snuck out of camp at night for some extra practice, and ended up falling into a thorn bush. Wrenpaw came up with the story that he’d gotten into a fight with a Shadowclan warrior, but his mentor was able to force  the truth out of him. Though he got off easy with a stern warning, and a few small scars, his mentor instilled in him a value of pride.

He worked hard at his next few months of training, determined to make up for the personal embarrassment. His mentor, a strong fighter in their own right, happily pushed him harder, honing him into a brilliant and brutal fighter. He finally got the chance to prove his strength and endurance during the winter before the promise, when famine raked the clans. He was determined to protect and provide for his clanmates, often pushing himself to his limit, fending off predators and prey-stealers. One particularly nasty battle with an owl left a deep, jagged scar across one shoulder.

In the Moon of Leopard’s Rest (2019), he was made a warrior as Wrentalon. Later on, his sister, Tigerrush, was made medicine cat of Thunderclan, and he could not be more proud of her. Wrentalon still is trying to get stronger even out of apprenticeship, readying himself for battle at every turn so he can continue protecting his sister, his clanmates, and his home. He frequently checks on Thunderclan’s borders for any suspicious activity on the part of rogues or loners.

In the Moon of Cheetah’s Flight (2020), he was asked by Sunstrike if he would sire a litter of kits for her, to which he happily obliged.
