Riverclan warrior

Snapkit > Snappaw > Snapjaw

PERSONALITY

Snap is a rather standoffish cat. She’s not the most social or friendly cat in the clan, but despite this, she’s still viewed as a useful and competent warrior. Her view of the world is rather cynical and she has a general distrust of emotions, both her own and others. She comes across as a bit bossy when it comes to warrior duties and training. She likes to appear fearless when it comes to combat and pulls this off by being ruthless on the battlefield. Snap was a born thrill-seeker but despite this is a stickler for the rules.

HISTORY

KITHOOD

Snapkit was born to a couple who only got together out of obligation. Her mother and father never had a good relationship and it showed in how Snap was brought up. Her and her sister were mostly raised by Timbercrunch, both showing signs of being strong, while her smaller, softer brother did not, so he was raised by Lavenderbubble. Timbercrunch was cold and rough in her bringing up of Snap and Cedar, barely showing them any affection unless they proved themselves worthy. Timber was unusually cruel but in an emotional way vs physical. Those first six moons of Snap’s life went by fairly quickly as she was kept busy, being told to do apprentice duties by her mother from the moment she physically could.

APPRENTICESHIP 
Snappaw was relieved to finally be free from her mother, that was until Timber asked to be assigned to her. With her mother always keeping a watchful eye on her, she excelled in her training, fearing what might happen if she didn’t. The next six moons moved slower than Snap even thought possible. With every training session, her mother’s training seemed to get more and more intense, often bringing Snap near the point of exhaustion. As her warrior ceremony and assessment began quickly approaching, Timber would begin to push Snap harder and harder in an attempt to prepare her for becoming a warrior, even though she was already well prepared. She was given her assessment a moon early and received her warrior name: Snapjaw.

WARRIORHOOD

Snapjaw’s excitement was short-lived as a moon after receiving her name, her mother fell ill. The illness spread to her father, then took them both. It was a bittersweet feeling, she didn’t know how to feel about the situation. She was finally free from Timber’s cold judgemental gaze, but she’d also just lost most of her family. She relied on her sister a lot after their death, feeling like she was the only other cat who’d understand. Several moons later a fight with some rogues broke out on the Windclan border, Cedar, Snap, and their brother Trout were defending Riverclan territory. Cedar was knocked out, her unconscious body falling into the river causing the she-cat to drown. This hit Snap hard and she took it out on the rogues, fighting until they reluctantly retreated. She was pretty injured, but alive, much to her dismay. Her brother retreated in the opposite direction of the rogues, unable to handle the violence that came with being a warrior. Snap disowned him, refusing to call him her brother at that point. She had no one now but didn’t mind this as it meant she really couldn’t lose anyone else. She vowed to avenge her sister and either find those rogues or keep herself alive as long as possible to keep her memory alive. Her best friend was exiled, driving the already unsocial she-cat even farther into her isolation.​
