86 MOONS ♥ TOM ♥ THUNDERCLAN ♥ LEADER ♥ TYPE 3 (TC)
Leader of ThunderClan for the past sixty-two moons, Elmstar has the reputation of being a distant and strictly-professional leader. Not entirely diplomatic, but wholly dedicated to his clan. So dedicated in fact, that he is not above treachery if it is for the sake of his home and his clanmates. Among ThunderClan he is known as a stern, no-nonsense character. Among cats of the other clans, he is likely considered shady but respectable. Thin and tall, he has a rich brown, tabby-striped pelt and sharp, champagne-colored eyes. On his last life and approaching the end of his reign, he's looking more and more frail with each sunhigh. His sanity, too, is beginning to wither beneath a burdensome debt in his mind.
[attr="class","relationships"]
GOLDENFLOWER
♥ FRIENDS, CLANMATES, && POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS ♥
THUNDERCLAN
First most, always first most, is the clan, whose safety and well-being Elmstar holds above all else. In fact, his complete devotion to his clan and its members does not transcend even amoral acts, which he has committed before "for ThunderClan". Nothing means more to Elmstar than his clan, its honor, and its continuation; he'd sacrifice his last life for its sake, just as he's sacrificed a few before.
LEAFCLOUD
Elmstar's mate is a notable figure in his life, though not as notable as one might expect. She has mothered his litters and provided him unfaltering support and comfort for countless seasons. He loves her, he really does, but he has always been a leader before a mate and has never been entirely attached to her. She understands this though, and loves him anyway, which Elmstar is grateful for. She's a brilliant feline, he knows, and if he makes it to StarClan with her, he'll give her all the affection he denied her in life.
Elmstar's deceased sister was the only feline of his immediate family that he was ever close to. And for the longest time, she was the most trusted and loved individual in his life. Supportive and caring as both a sister to a brother and a medicine cat to a leader. Her death took a toll on him, which can only be said about one other cat in his life.
QUAILFOOT
The retired deputy of ThunderClan, Quailfoot is Elmstar's closest companion and adviser. He's been a constant source of well-worded wisdom and understanding for seasons among seasons. He can rely on Quailfoot for anything... yet Elmstar did not share with him that one, burdensome secret.
FLOWERFUR
The current deputy of ThunderClan, Flowerfur is possibly the only feline whom Elmstar believes capable of filling Quailfoot's pawprints. She's a strong she-cat that he respects and trusts whole-heartedly to lead ThunderClan when he's gone. She's admirably willful and Elmstar has put a lot of responsibility on her shoulders — including the very burdensome secret that weighs heavily upon his own.
RAVENPAW
His current apprentice and a frightful, nervous thing. Elmstar sees the potential in her.
♥ ACQUAINTANCES && NEUTRAL RELATIONSHIPS ♥
GRAYLEAF
The current medicine cat; the feline who replaced Goldenflower when she died. Elmstar feels as if she could never fill his sister's pawprints and, (even though it might seem foolish) he feels a little irked that anyone could ever try. Call it Elmstar's unique brand of grief — Goldenflower's not being with him is a void, and nothing can fix that. He's distant with the she-cat, impatient with her, and just doesn't have much faith in her overall.
KITTENS && GRANDKITTENS
Elmstar is father to two litters of kittens and grandkittens. But he has treated the majority of them as little more than clanmates. The only exceptions would be Tinycrow, his daughter and former apprentice. And then there was once Cerisepaw, his son and former apprentice, who was killed before being made a warrior. Those are the only two of Elmstar's children with whom he could be seen as an active paternal figure.
♥ RIVALS, ENEMIES, && NEGATIVE RELATIONSHIPS ♥
LIZARDSTRIPE
The disowned son who earned Elmstar's disdain by shacking up with a rogue. Elmstar exiled him from ThunderClan for the utter disgrace, and thinks that the tom dirtied the pure blood that Elmstar gave him. And that, to the ThunderClan leader, is unforgivable. He allowed Lizardstripe's half-blooded kittens to stay in the clan, however.
LIONSTAR
The leader of RiverClan, and a foolish, asinine feline. Elmstar has never gotten along with him for the many, many moons they've both been leaders, though only rarely have things come to a confrontation between them. In fact, they share similar beliefs and have often agreed on things in the past. But Elmstar doesn't particularly like the fish tom... so much so, that their clans are hovering upon the brink of war.
[attr="class","threads"]
young isn't forever [flowerfur/complete]
The ThunderClan leader rudiments the retiring of his friend and deputy, Quailfoot, when joined by the very warrior he is considering to be the tom's replacement. Caught in a violent storm, both felines are (reluctantly) forced to shelter together while the rain passes.
arise & ascend [ceremony/complete]
The retiring of Quailfoot and the appointment of ThunderClan's new deputy, Flowerfur.
master & mentor [ravenpaw/inactive]
A training session between Elmstar and his apprentice.
september gathering [inactive]
A massive happening - during this full moon, one clan was only half-present (minus their leader, deputy and medicine cat), a tyrant was self-announced, and tragedy unfolded in a natural phenomenon — a lightning-strike that was proclaimed by many, especially the grieving, to be an omen against ThunderClan. War between two clans was called and an unbalanced death count crippled an entire clan.
pull the curtain [flowerfur/complete]
Another chance meeting between deputy and leader results in innocent inquiring into Flowerfur's adjusting to her new responsibilities... and then a dark confession. An ominous promise is made.
we cannot forgive [rc/tc/inactive]
A RiverClan patrol, on the trail of thieving rogues, meets with a ThunderClan patrol. The parties are lead by none other than Lionstar and Elmstar, whom banter at each other until blows are exchanged.
without threat for once [flowerfur]
Elmstar comes across Flowerfur upon the mudpools and joins her.
morning pains [flowerfur]
A solo hunting party that really begins to show the signs of wear upon Elmstar - both physically and mentally. He's caught in a moment of fearful hallucination by his deputy, and has to come to terms with the fact he's becoming as unstable and forgetful as his predecessor.
[attr="class","adoptables"]
[attr="class","eleboo"] leafcloud 78 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ elder ♥ she-cat ♥ mate Leafcloud is the mother of Elmstar's kittens. She loves him and, really, he does love her back. However, due to the way that Elmstar is, the two have never been like true mates. But Leafcloud understands that he has always been a leader before a father, and — towards the end of his life — the ole boy is coming to realize that she probably deserved more love in her life than he was ever able to give her. Leafcloud loves him despite his detachment, and he has always been grateful for that. // Mate: Elmstar -- Surviving Kittens: Lizardstripe, Kestrelflight, Tinycrow, Mottledbug -- Grandkittens: Falconpaw, Eaglepaw, Lizardpaw, Tanglekit | [attr="class","eleboo"] lizardstripe 40 moons ♥ Lizardstripe looks the most like Elmstar in appearance, though his fur is lighter and splashed with a bit of Leafcloud's paler colors (bits of ginger and white). He also possesses Elmstar's uncanny intelligence as well as a certain... darker quality. Where they most differ is in their moral principles: with Elmstar, everything was done for the good ThunderClan. Lizardstripe is guided more by his own emotions and ambitions. Elmstar acted all in the name of ThunderClan, but Lizardstripe is not bound by such devotion. He's loyal, of course, but that has not stopped him from taking a loner as mate and siring half-blooded kittens (an act so repulsive/shameful to his father, that he was exiled as a result). He doesn't hide or deny himself emotions, which makes him a bit more unpredictable and dangerous than his father. He can also be a bit more playful and mischievous than Elmstar (though often in a way that the leader would consider shameful). On a whole, he is a solid feline, knows what needs to be done, and a really strong character — but not completely immune to ambition and without his father's moral compass. He would be more-liked than Elmstar ever was, which is ironic, because he wouldn't be as nearly and utterly devoted. // Parents: Elmstar & Leafcloud -- Littermates: Kestrelflight, Mottledbug, Tinycrow -- Mate: Tansy [deceased] -- Kittens: Falconpaw, Lizardpaw, Eaglepaw -- Nephew: Tanglekit |
[attr="class","eleboo"] kestrelflight 40 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ warrior ♥ tom ♥ son Kestrelflight's make-up is a fortunate compromise between his father's agility and his mother's build. Where Elmstar was painfully-thin and slender, K-Flight's build (luckily) possesses a significant amount of Leafcloud's strength — thicker with more muscle than Elmstar, capable of more strength and power. // He's a wholly-good tom who could be nothing but genuine. A perfect father type and a better warrior than a leader could ever ask for. When it boils down to it, however, Kess could never be little more than a warrior. And truly, he is content and comfortable with that. He's a cat who follows loyally and faithfully, but isn't entirely capable of leading. Though he would be a good and kind leader, he's simply not made for the role. His brother, Lizardstripe, has always been more "that material", though Kestrelflight has a better reputation and is more liked for his nature. // Parents: Elmstar & Leafcloud -- Littermates: Tinycrow, Lizardstripe, Mottledbug -- Nieces & Nephews: Eaglepaw, Lizardpaw, Falconpaw | [attr="class","eleboo"] tinycrow 40 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ warrior ♥ she-cat ♥ daughter Tinycrow has her father's build and her mother's colors. She is as gentle and caring as Leafcloud but, unlike both of her parents, she is an extrovert and open. She has the personality of a medicine cat, but not the focus or mindset to be one. She started out as a medicine cat apprentice, but soon enough discovered that she wasn't suited for the job. She doesn't regret becoming a warrior now — a medicine cat life would have been too quiet and not exciting enough for her. Not to mention, she's just recently had a kitten and could never imagine a life without the feeling of being a mother. She's a natural-born nurturer and loves her son to death. // Parents: Leafcloud & Elmstar -- Littermates: Kestrelflight, Mottledbug, Lizardstripe -- Kit: Tanglekit -- Nephews & Nieces: Falconpaw, Lizardpaw, Eaglepaw |
[attr="class","eleboo"] mottledbug 40 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ warrior ♥ tom ♥ son Mottledbug is the oddball of the litter when it comes to appearances. It's almost as if there is nothing of Elmstar in his physical make-up — he has the thicker, solid, and more muscular build of Leafcloud. He's much larger than his siblings and the most laid-back. Unlike his two brothers, Mottledbug possesses very little ambition. He's a "floating on the breeze" type of tom. Kestrelflight and Lizardstripe were both contenders for deputies, where Mottledbug wouldn't ever desire the position. He's content with hunting and fighting for ThunderClan, but having the responsibility of the entire clan on his shoulders is not something he would ever want. He can't imagine anyone ever wanting it, and has never truly understood his brothers. He gets along very well with Tinycrow, however, and is overly-protective of her and her son. // Parents: Leafcloud & Elmstar -- Littermates: Kestrelflight, Tinycrow, Lizardstripe -- Nephews & Nieces: Falconpaw, Lizardpaw, Eaglepaw, Tanglekit | [attr="class","eleboo"] falconpaw 06 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ apprentice ♥ she-cat ♥ granddaughter Elmstar's grandchild, born to his son, Lizardstripe, and a loner she-cat named Tansy. Although Elmstar accepted the kittens into his clan because of the ThunderClan blood in them (not to mention his blood.), Lizardstripe was exiled along with Tansy because of his relationship. Elmstar saw it as an insult to Lizardstripe's full-blooded lineage and a blight to ThunderClan's honor. Elmstar is somewhat stand-offish toward the kittens. Falconpaw is a sibling of three, and she is headstrong and will-bent to prove that her half-bloodedness doesn't affect her loyalty at all. Crazily ambitious and eager to make her grandfather proud, even if Elmstar hardly acknowledges her or her littermates. // Grandparents: Elmstar & Leafcloud -- Parents: Tansy & Lizardstripe -- Aunts & Uncles: Kestrelflight, Mottledbug, Tinycrow -- Littermates: Eaglepaw, Lizardpaw |
[attr="class","eleboo"] eaglepaw 06 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ apprentice ♥ tom ♥ grandson Elmstar's grandchild, born to his son, Lizardstripe, and a loner she-cat named Tansy.

Elmstar saw it as an insult to Lizardstripe's full-blooded lineage and a blight to ThunderClan's honor. Elmstar is somewhat stand-offish toward the kittens. Personality open. // Grandparents: Elmstar & Leafcloud -- Parents: Tansy & Lizardstripe -- Aunts & Uncles: Kestrelflight, Mottledbug, Tinycrow -- Littermates: Falconpaw, Lizardpaw | [attr="class","eleboo"] lizardpaw 06 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ apprentice ♥ she-cat ♥ granddaughter Elmstar's grandchild, born to his son, Lizardstripe, and a loner she-cat named Tansy.

[attr="class","eleboo"] tanglekit 03 moons ♥ thunderclan ♥ kitten ♥ tom ♥ grandson Tanglekit is Tinycrow's son. The only kitten that was born alive. He looks like a reincarnation of Elmstar — the same eyes, the same fur, and a promise of the same build. // Grandparents: Elmstar & Leafcloud -- Mother: Tinycrow -- Uncles/Aunts: Kestrelflight, Lizardstripe, Mottledbug -- Cousins: Eaglepaw, Lizardpaw, Eaglepaw |
