Name: Earthpaw-->Earthdust
Prefix Meaning: Her pelt is brown, similar to earth after a rainstorm.
Suffix Meaning: She is light on her feet, the quickest of her litter.
Age: 6 moons
Rank: apprentice
Clan: Moonclan
Description: Earthpaw's pelt is deep brown, similar to the earth after a rainstorm. She is smaller than average, but has several distinguishing features. Her paws are black, and her belly is slightly lighter than her back. Her nose is the same color as her back.
Earthpaw's eyes are relatively darker than expected; they are a yellow-gold color, yet darker than normal. They are normally allight with an innocent determination. On her sides is a strange pattern of circles; a small, complete circle at the base of her ribs on each side, with more circles radiating outward, fading into the darker/lighter browns of her back and belly.
Personality: Earthpaw is a strange MoonClanner. She preffers the ground to the trees, and likes rodents better than birds. She tends to hunt rodents more than birds as well. Unless there is a bird on the ground that can be easily killed. She is often asked why she doesn't go into the trees. That's because, up off the ground, she's quite clumsy. She has fallen out of a tree more than once, so she preffers the ground and the creatures that stay on it.
Earthpaw is a determined, loyal she-cat. However, she tends to be somewhat ignorant and innocent to the ways of the world. She is easily influenced, but has a good heart. She tends to be a bit clumsy, especially when she doesn't have all four paws on solid ground, which is why she stays out of the trees most of the time. Occasionally, she will go onto a tree branch when Phoenixpaw encourages her, but she more often than not ends up injured. She takes things a bit seriously sometimes, and doesn't like getting yelled at. She also doesn't like Phoenixpaw getting dragged into things that started because of something Earthpaw did/said. She is a bit protective of her sister, and their parents, but preffers talking out a problem than fighting. She doesn't like to fight unless she absolutely has to.
History: Earthpaw was born in mid-greenleaf to Blazestripe and Raindance. Blazestripe, her father, looked much like one of the other kits; bright orange pelt in a calico pattern and red-orange eyes. Raindance, Earthkit's mother, was a light grey she-cat with bright blue eyes that had gold flecks in them. Her parents were on the elderly side, Earthkit being part of their second successful litter. Their first litter miscarried in mid-leaf-bare, due to bad food.
Earthkit had two siblings, both she-kits as well. The largest of the three was named Flarekit for her solid orange pelt. The other orange she-kit was Phoenixkit. Raindance's mother had also had a brown pelt, which explained Earthkit's.
The three kits grew up quickly, becoming more adventurous by the sun. They wandered farther and farther from the nursery, even going into the trees from time to time. Phoenixkit was the best of the three at getting into the trees and remaining undetected. Earthkit was, like most small kits, quicker than her littermates. Earthkit was also able to remain undetected in shadows, which was harder to do for the other two. Flarekit was like Phoenixkit, they both hid well in trees. Phoenixkit was better though, simply because she was smaller than Flarekit.
When they were three moons old, the littermates had a competition to see who could get up highest into a tree. Earthkit knew that she wouldn't win, so she stayed on the ground and watched. Phoenixkit knew she would get higher because she was lighter than Flarekit. However, there had been a storm the night before, weakening the boughs. They snapped under the weight of the kits. Phoenixkit managed to land on her paws. Flarekit wasn't so lucky. Flarekit fell and broke one rear and one fore leg. She caught a fever and died a few sunrises later.
Earthkit had a habit of hiding in holes. Mainly under trees and bushes. One day, when the pair were four moon old, Earthkit had hidden under a nest in the nursery. The two were playing hide-and-seek. Raindance came in to check on her two remaining she-kits, misunderstanding when Phoenixkit said she was looking for Earthkit. No cats got hurt. Earthkit just got in trouble and was restricted to the nursery and it's mouth for a quarter of that moon.
Nothing much happened after that, and the two have remained close as they aged.

Hey, Moonshine! She all done? Can't find a work-in-progress statement anywhere. She needs a picture, remember.
Now, there's nothing wrong with Earthpaw's personality, but could you perhaps flesh it out just a little bit? Just a few little sentences here and there would be great. Other than that, she's wonderful, though God help me when it comes to finding these sisters mentors... thank goodness these two are brand new apprentices. *mutters to self a list of MoonClan warriors and plot details and who's disappearing and who's not* Ah, but that's a conversation for another thread...
