PERSONALITY

Bracken has always been the cat to do the right thing. From a young age, she had an extreme sense of honesty and justice. She could not bear to tell a lie- and she always ratted on her litter mates if they did something wrong. This carried with her all the way to adulthood. It is uncharacteristic of Breezeclan cats to be this justified- more often than Bracken would like to admit Breezeclan cats would rather turn a blind eye than shield a victim. It is something she strives to change in Breezeclan. Despite being slightly outcast-ed by the elders, she gets on well with the younger Breezeclan cats. She is a natural born leader, and the youngsters flock to her and seek guidance. 

Possibly her biggest, most damaging flaws is her obsessive nature and the guilt that comes with responsibility. It's a dangerous mix. She cannot save every cat- though she tries. When she fails, and loses a clan member, she is beside herself with grief. She has to keep it bottled for the sake of the clan, of course, but she is ripped apart with guilt often. It is something that can quickly become crippling if she can't convince herself that she has other duties and promises to her clan.

HISTORY + MORE

Brackenkit was born to Crookedstar and Pondleap of Breezeclan. She had a privelaged childhood, being the daughter of the clan's leader. She was treated fairly, but she never had the respect of the clan that her older brother Pinepaw had. She looked up to her older brother, admiring how wise and collected he seemed at such a young age. She admired her father, too, but as she grew her views conflicted heavily with his. Growing up was not easy, despite being privelaged. She started to lose control of her mouth, standing up for those she felt were wronged. The clan, wo had no resolve with her as it was, turned their backs on her. They sent looks her way when her head was turned- though she felt every glare. When her brother became deputy, she was very proud, hoping that Pineshade would bring justice to their clan once and for all. It was tradition in Breezeclan that a fathers firstborn son would take up his side as deputy, and then one day leader. The clan was elated- but their happiness was short lived. Not too long after Pineshade became deputy, Crookedstar took his final breath, sucumbing to greencough in the cold winte months. It was a tragedy, but one that they all knew was coming. 

So, Pineshade traveled to Starpools and recieved his nine lives, becoming Pinestar of Breezeclan. Pinestat took up Brackenstripe as his deputy, for which she felt very honored. Not soon after that- Pinestar took up a mate (Honeyfur) and they had their first and only litter of kits. Three daughters. Bracken expected Pinestar to be upset- despaired even- but he showed them much affection. Pinstar was often seen visiting his family on his breaks, and for that Brackenstripe adored him even more. She never had a close relationship with her brother, they weren't litter mates afterall, but she wished she had been close with him. 

One year after becoming Breezeclan's leader, Brackenstripe accompanied Pinestar and a few other warriors on a small hunting party. Only the most skilled hunters were allowed to come- because fishing in the sea in the months of leaf-bare was especially trecherous. It all happened so fast- but while Pinestar was fishing off a rock, a wave seemed to swallow him whole and he was washed out to see. Brackenstripe was closest to him when it happened- and she was stunned so that it took her several seconds before she jumped into the water after him. She tried her best, but it was to no avail. Pinestar was swept out to sea and he was never to be seen again. 

With no kits of age from Pinestar, Brackenstripe traveled to Starpools and gained her ninelives and became Brackenstar of Breezeclan. The clan was not happy, the elders especially, they never liked having a female leader, but there was no other choice. Brackenstar herself knew she was mainly a substitute, the clan would never accept her as a true leader, but she would damn well try. To this day, she tries her hardest, not allowing even a minoe slip up lest the clan retaliate against her. She has become close to Pinestar's widowed mate Honeyfur and their children, especially her niece and apprentice Dewsplash.
