Description: Driftripple is a large she-cat with thick, soft fur that wisps around her as if she sported feathers. Swirls of ginger, black, and white blanket her long fur but her paws look as if they were dipped in snow. Even though she is on the heavier side weight wise, her pawsteps are light and slow. Her gait seems unnatural to those looking on, her flowing pelt and airy steps almost making her look like a Starclan cat themselves. Driftripples brilliant light hazel eyes spark with a kit like carefree joy unmarred by the troubles that she’s been through in life.
Description Summary: Thick, heavyset calico she-cat with pretty hazel eyes
Personality: Driftripple is a cat who, at first glance, may seem innocent and gullible with her almost carefree giggle and compassionate trusting eyes. Nevertheless despite her appearance, Driftripple is not the cat to double cross. Even though her intelligence is average, her life experience has given her enough knowledge to spot a shifty cat when she encounters one. Slow at trusting other cats, she is fiercely loyal to any cat once you’ve earned it.
Though she can be clumsy, making hunting and precision fighting harder than most, Driftripple has sharp eyesight and excellent tracking skills to make up for her…lack of grace. Her height can make her intimidating to some cats but those who have gotten to cross her path are always left smiling. Driftripple is kind, gentle, and loving, always giving cats her all, even if that all doesn’t always include trust at first.
She has a deep love for her brothers and spends most of her time with them or patrolling Galeclans borders. In her free time—if she’s not with her siblings—-you can find her either playing with the younger kittens or trying to help the medicine cats with their herbs (though this is quite comical due to her size.
History: Driftkit was the only she-cat born alongside her two brothers. Their parents, Duskmane and Kestrelrain, were doting and well adjusted parents who raised their kits to be strong and respectable. Though Alderkit didn’t seem much interested in apprenticeship or warriorhood, Driftkit was enthusiastic. She wanted to be able to protect herself and her family and to make her parents proud. She was closest to her father, always following him around pretending to help him with tasks around camp.
When her apprenticeship loomed ahead of her, she became uncertain. Now that fantasy was becoming reality, she wondered if she’d be able to fulfill her own desires and meet the perceived expectations of others. Her father reassured her and it didn’t take long for Driftpaw to begin bugging her mentor Leafwhisker to teach her 500 things in 1 hour. Leafwhisker applauded her enthusiasm but taught her that being a warrior was more than knowing many things. It was about knowing your limits and honing the skills that you did excel in.
Some time into Driftpaws apprenticeship her parents took their kits on a night walk and Driftpaw was thrilled. She talked on and on about the thrills of training and the friends she was making when tragedy struck. A coyote—to her coming out of nowhere—snatched her father in its jaws. She was frozen, tears welling up in her eyes. Her brother was barking orders but she couldn’t seem to move, watching the fight happen with sap like movement. Suddenly with a nudge by her brother, Blazingpaw, she leapt into action. It was too late for their parents, however, and the recently orphaned siblings huddled and numbly received their warrior names.
Driftripple spirit was dampened and she was almost offended by Alderstones mentors attempts to be a father. Becoming more isolated from the clan she stuck with her brothers and tried to ignore Stonegazes comfort. One night Stonegaze took her on a walk, she was nervous but followed him nevertheless. He told her he understood that she was hesitant with him. He said that he didn't want to replace their parents, he wanted to simply be there for them if they needed advice, affection, or a shoulder to cry on. After a moment or two he continued. He explained that he understood her pain but shutting down and isolation were only going to make things worse.
Convicted by Stonegazes advice, Driftripple opened up about the grief she was experiencing and how she blamed herself for her parents' deaths because she had been careless and loud. Feeling more free than before, Driftripple began to regain her joy and to devote herself to helping her clanmates and playing with the future generations. And, she continues to grow closer to her adoptive father, appreciating his support more than before.
