Whitefire

Appearance
Whitefire is an old white she-cat with amber eyes. She is strong and stout with thick fur, sharp cheekbones, pointed and angular ears, a short muzzle, and a curled tuft of hair atop her head. She has a few pale gray markings, and her age shows in the creases underneath her eyes.

Personality
Whitefire is a knowledgeable, honored elder and Council member of Marsh Colony, retaining her fiery streak and a sharp sense of humor even in her old age. Hawkshell' s own sister, a retired Second, and the mother of two well-respected cats, Kestrelsnap and Shrewbelly, Whitefire’s reputation precedes her.

In her youth, she was bold and powerful, both her sister’s best friend and her biggest rival. They were always competing and pushing each other to be better. When Hawkshell, then Shellfur, was half-blinded, Whitefire was there to help her get back on her feet. When Hawkshell was made Second, Whitefire worked with her sister to stop the fighting between Marsh Colony and Oak Colony. When Hawkshell became Captain, she gave Whitefire the honor of being her Second, and Whitefire served in that role for many moons.

But neither Hawkshell nor Whitefire are as young as they used to be, and, now in respectful retirement, Whitefire is glad to see a promising young cat like Leafstorm taking her place. She wishes that Hawkshell would give herself the chance to join her in the elders’ den, but she knows her sister will never let herself retire and will most likely remain Marsh Colony’s Captain until the day she dies. Whitefire respects that.

Synopsis
Coming soon...

Hawkshell
Hawkshell is Whitefire’s sister, and the two of them have always been very close, especially in their younger moons. They had a typical sibling relationship with their own fair share of clashing and challenge, but at the end of the day, they had each other’s backs, and Whitefire stayed by Hawkshell’s side through thick and thin. She served under her as Second for a long time, and now that Whitefire is an elder, she misses the time she once spent with her sister — but she knows that Hawkshell would never step down from her role as Captain, and in truth, Whitefire would not want her to. Hawkshell’s stubbornness and resolution are what she loves the most about her sister.

Kestrelsnap and Shrewbelly
Kestrelsnap and Shrewbelly are Whitefire’s kittens. It is unknown who their father is, but Kestrelsnap is a respected senior ranger and a close friend of Hawkshell’s while Shrewbelly is a well-loved keeper and a caring guardian-like figure to many of the cats in Marsh Colony. Not much information is known on Whitefire’s relationship with her son and daughter, but chances are that she is very proud of the cats they have grown into.

Bramblefur and Rosethorn
Bramblefur and Rosethorn are the other two elders in Marsh Colony and the cats that Whitefire spends the most time with. Not much information is known on her relationships with them.

Worth noting, though, is that Leafstorm is one of Bramblefur’s daughters, so he and Whitefire can probably have a few long chats over how she can serve as Marsh Colony’s Second.

Trivia
