Sleekstar, leader of RippleClan

42 moons :: tom :: leader of RippleClan

» A P P E A R A N C E
A large, deep black tom with piercing amber eyes and a small white spot on his chest. He is stocky like most of his clanmates and with his webbed paws and hooked claws, he looks rather imposing to most that don't know him.

Though Sleekstar started off rather shy and quiet as a kit, the tom has grown well and stands a strong, despite being inexperienced, leader of the Clan. He is fair and resolute, and tends to prefer more pacifist options than ones that would plunge his Clan into war. He listens well and likes to chat, but deep down his insecurity can sometimes get the better of him; he often wonders what his Clan and the other leaders think, especially since he is so young to be in control of such a large amount of cats, but is stoic and gives off the air of not really caring. He will continue to be a solid and down-to-earth cat, but his heart and love will only grow.

Sleekkit and Sandkit were born to two young and healthy warriors of RippleClan, and both kits had an easy kithood, with warm weather and abundant prey their thriving point. Sleekkit was a cheeky but shy kit, often stopping in the middle of play to admire the clouds or a rather pretty coloured leaf as the seasons changed. He and Sandkit became apprentices in early leaf-fall, and with their mentors as siblings often challenged one another. Sleekpaw lagged behind a little, but Sandpaw often held him up and kept him going. The two got into much mischief together, but it took a horrible turn when a flood came through one night in leafbare, sweeping poor Sandpaw downstream never to be seen again. Sleekpaw was rather shocked, and fell into a rather low state, but in the end got himself back up and fighting again. He earned his warrior name Sleekfire for the amber colour of his eyes, and became well known rather quickly as one of the warriors you definitely wanted on your side.

Sleekfire's next challenge was his sprightly apprentice Emberpaw, who often didn't listen to him and did her own thing. The two bonded eventually over Sleekfire making a fool of himself in a mud puddle, and he eventually got her to train properly. The two grew close and Emberpaw became Emberspark a few moons later. Sleekfire was honoured to have trained such a strong new warrior, but was surprised when he was asked to step into the position of deputy, being quite young and feeling inexperienced. Autumnstar was confident, and Sleekfire soon gained an even better reputation within the Clan. Autumnstar lost her last life only a sunrise ago, and Sleekstar returned to the Clan with his lives, ready to take charge.
