the face behind the name
Brokensoul is a dark grey tabby she-cat, with brilliant sea green eyes. Brokensoul is covered in many scars from battles with other loners, and battles between clans, but she remains in good health. However, Brokensoul's eyes seem to change with the seasons and weather, and some cats say she has a speical connection to Starclan unlike any other cats.
who lies behind the face
Brokensoul is a bitter and hardened she-cat, and hates to be contradicted by small kits and annoying apprentice's. Althought, she has a soft spot within her, yet no one has found it, as she won't let anyone talk to her unless it's imporatant, or the leader. Brokensoul still feels attached to Shadowclan; her kits are there, and even though they turned against her, she still feels her work there is not done.
Brokensoul's bitter and hardened outside rarely crumbles to let others see the soft, and hurt little kit she is inside, and she does well to hide it, as Brokensoul is usually ignored by the clan.
this is what made who who i am
my first steps
Sorrelkit was born into Shadowclan, to a pair of cats called Sandface, a handsome young tom with a golden pelt, and Cloudedheart, a pretty white she-cat. She had two brothers, called Coldkit, a white tom with blue eyes, who was blind, and Frostkit, who died shortly after birth.
As Sorrelkit grew with her brother, she learned that Sandface was not her father, as Cloudedheart had been cheating on him with a rogue tom called Scar. Sorrelkit followed her mother out of camp one day, and saw her meet up with Scar, and there, she saw two kits with Scar. Scar couldn't cope with the two kits, who were both bickering she-kits, and asked Cloudedheart to take care of them.
Sorrelkit ran back home, running into the tom who she thought was her father, and telling him about Scar. That was a decision she would regret for the rest of her life.
Sandface ran out, following Cloudedheart's scent, and saw her with the two kits. He attacked her, killing her in blinded anger, then following her scent back to Scar. Scar was killed, and Sandface was never seen again.
The two she-kits followed Sorrelkit home, and saw her. They were bigger than her, and attacked her, blaming her for their mother and father's deaths. Sorrelkit yowled at them to stop, as she knew that Cloudedheart had been cheating on the tom she thought was her father, but it turned out that Scar was her father.
The two kits introduced themselves as Bark and Buzzard, and Sorrelkit told them to lie about where they had come from, and say they didn't remember anything apart from their names.
The leader took the two kits in, renaming them Barkkit and Buzzardkit. Coldkit didn't know about anything that was happening until the three she-kits came into the nursery. He greeted them, asking them where Cloudedheart and Sandface were. Sorrelkit told Coldkit that they had been killed by a monster trying to save her and two other she-kits, and Coldkit curled up into a sleep from which he would never awake.
growing older
A few days later, Barkkit, Buzzardkit and Sorrelkit were apprenticed. Sorrelpaw was apprenticed to a tom called Tigerfang, Buzzardpaw to a she-cat called Frostypelt, and Barkpaw to a she-cat called Duskcloud. Tigerfang took Sorrelpaw well away from camp to begin training with her, and took an unhealthy interest in the newly apprenticed kit, and abused her.
Sorrelpaw was scarred for life, but to scared to tell the leader about Tigerfang. Barkpaw and Buzzardpaw saw what was going on, and one day, they and their mentors followed Tigerfang and Sorrelpaw, and watched what he had been doing to her. It was not a pretty sight. The four she-cats raced back to camp, and told the leader about Tigerfang and what he had been doing. Tigerfang was punished by Starclan, and banished from the clan.
Sorrelpaw was then apprenticed to a she-cat, to make sure history did not repeat itself. This she-cat was a kind she-cat called Poppyclaw. Poppyclaw taught Sorrelpaw much better than Tigerfang had, and was very protective of her. Sorrelpaw cared for Poppyclaw like a mother.
However, Tigerfang returned with a group of rogues, and attacked the Shadowclan camp. Poppyclaw was killed protecting Sorrelpaw from Tigerfang, but now, Sorrelpaw was older, more experienced, and as she had just reached 12 moons, she attacked Tigerfang with Barkpaw and the new warrior Buzzardwing. Tigerfang was driven out with horrific injuries; he had been blinded and his tail now lay on the floor of the Shadowclan camp. Seven rogues died, and four apprentices and two warriors were killed.
when i was worthy
After the battle, the leader made Sorrelpaw into Sorreltail and Barkpaw into Barkheart. Sorreltail continued to train and hone her skills with her sisters, and would hunt daily.
A few moons later, Tigerfang returned, broken and old. Sorreltail, Barkheart and Buzzardwing wanted the leader to shun him, but, he was let into the clan to their dispair. Tigerfang was put under close guard, but at one gathering, he struck the fragile Sorreltail again, this time, making sure that she bore his kits. Sorreltail was damaged, and was carrying unwanted kits. The clan chased him away again, this time making sure he didn't come back, as they chased him to the Thunderpath.
Sorreltail still went on about her duties even though she did not want the kits she was carrying, but, as they were of her blood as well, she would have to keep them, unless she could abandon them somehow.
as a mother
At the same time Sorreltail went into the nursery, her sister, Buzzardwing, joined her. Buzzardwing had a mate, one who every she-cat was after in the clan, called Skyeyes. Skyeyes and Buzzardwing were truely in love, but Sorreltail had never been in love with Tigerfang.
A few weeks later, both queen's went into labour at the same time, but, Buzzardwing was not as fortunate as her sister. She had lost a lot of blood, leaving her two kits alone in the world as their father had been killed a few days before. Sorreltail had three kits, a tom and two she-cats. Sorreltail took in the other she-cat and tom, from her sister's litter. She named her own kits Stripedkit, the tom, Buzzardkit and Cloudedkit were her she-kits, and Buzzardwing's son was called Sandkit, and her daughter was called Eaglekit.
Sorreltail told Sandkit and Eaglekit of their mother from the moment they could understand, telling them that their mother was a beautiful and caring she-cat, and their father was a powerful and brave tom. The kits were fascinated, but when Stirpedkit, Buzzardkit and Cloudedkit all asked their mother who their father was, she was too ashamed to tell them, saying she had the right to keep it a secret.
A few moons later, she swelled with pride as her two daughters, son, niece and nephew were made into apprentice's.
betrayed
Whilst Sorreltail was training her new apprentice, Thistlepaw, a nasty plot was going on inside Shadowclan. The deputy, who hated Sorreltail for no reason, wanted her out of the clan. This tom was called Leopardclaw, son of Tigerfang, true son, and he hated Sorreltail, believeing it was her fault that his father abused her. The leader was old, Leopardclaw killed her, and blamed it on Sorreltail, even though she was not in camp.
When she and Thistlepaw returned, Leopardstar sat on the leader's rock with an evil smile on his face.
He told the clan he knew who had killed the leader, and pointed his claws at Sorreltail, who recoiled in surprise. Several cats yowled their obejections, but were over-ruled by Leopardstar. Leopardstar ordered cats loyal to him to attack the young Sorreltail, and seven or eight warrior's attacked the lone she-cat. Leopardstar renamed her Brokensoul, saying it was a sign from Starclan, and banished her from the clan while she was on her last legs. Not even her kits were allowed to say goodbye for fear of their lives.
all alone
Brokensoul wandered for many moons, fighting with other rogues and loners until she felt she was strong enough to return. But, she felt like she couldn't for she was still broken, and felt that Shadowclan was no longer a safe haven for herself. A few moons later, she fell in love with another loner, and bore his kits, two of them, Riverkit, a small she-cat, and Icykit, a large tom. Brokensoul took care of her kits for many long moons, and led them through the territories. She named them Riverpaw and Icypaw when they were 5 and a half moons old, and began teaching them all she knew. However, Riverpaw was a sickly little kit, so one day, whilst she was asleep, she took Riverpaw to Windclan territory - somewhere where they hadn't been - and left her close to the camp, hoping they would take her in and help her.
Now it was only Brokensoul and Icypaw, as her mate had ran off with another rogue. She felt that it was typical, but at least now she had a kit with her that she had wanted in the first place. Brokensoul led Icypaw to the Fourtrees, telling him of the meetings she went to. Icypaw was fascinated, and asked his mother if they could visit a clan. She told him that would be hard, as rogues and loners are considered hostile, and either to be chased off or ignored. But Icypaw was so eager, so left his mother one day in the night, following the river.
When Brokensoul awoke, she was all alone, and she wept for her kits for many days, until she realised there was no use to that, so she followed the river until she reached the Sunning Rocks, then she met Thunderclan. At first, she was met with a hostile claw and tongue, but after explaining her situation, Thunderclan were a little more open, and let her in the clan.
my new home
Brokensoul stayed as Brokensoul for a while, until Dovestar saw it fit to rename her, but Brokensoul had beome accustomed to her name, and was left with it. She had trained a couple apprentice's in the clan, but has nothing left apart from her kits in different clans, and really wants another litter.
Is it related to nature? If not, you'll have to shange the second part of the name. Other than that, it's great.
