"It's tough to be a god. Tread where mortals have not trod. Be deified when really you're a sham."
Lemonweed - Lanky, off-white tom with cream patches and blue eyes.
Lemonweed is one of the most spiritual of DustClan’s medicine cats, having a very strong connection to StarClan and even being able to see the dead walking amongst the living. However, this doesn’t stop him from being openly critical of StarClan and their decisions. This can throw off other cats that don’t know him very well, but he always means well.
They have a strong appreciation for the innocence of kits and the bright-eyed optimism of apprentices, and they try to protect these things by keeping StarClan at bay so that they don’t traumatize young cats with their prophecies and intervention until they’re of-age. Despite having a very mellow demeanor, they still manage to embody the phrase “stop making kids fight your wars.”

Lemonweed is a mellow, approachable individual with a highly spiritual outlook. He firmly believes in learning from Clan ancestors and keeping those even from long ago alive through stories and memories, as well as looking to StarClan residents for advice and guidance. Due to his ability to see ghosts, he often enjoys conversing with those visiting the Clan, although this can make him appear a little odd at times if it’s in a public space since it looks like he’s talking to himself. This doesn’t stop him from being highly and openly critical of StarClan, often mentioning these criticisms off-handedly with a smile during casual conversation. He doesn’t believe StarClan is infallible or even deserves to be revered as if they’re more than just cats themselves.
If they witness StarClan trying to push prophecies or a specific path on a kit or apprentice, and believe it’s having a negative impact on the young cat, they’ll put themself between the kit or apprentice and StarClan, and keep a watchful eye on them. Despite being young themself, this has already put them at odds with more than one StarClan cat. They can be fairly passive-aggressive and unbudging in these situations, but rarely fall into outright disrespect.
When it comes to living cats, Lemonweed is very welcoming toward those within and outside his clan. He functions really well under the medicine cat code and enjoys chatting up his patients and fellow medicine cats. He’s surprisingly sociable and active for such a tired-looking cat. He especially loves talking to apprentices and listening to kits’ curious ramblings, and so frequently visits the nursery to give the queens some time to themselves. Just like many other DustClan cats, he’s crafty and intuitive, and enjoys using twoleg objects such as his bandana. He likes to take things one step at a time and stops to smell the metaphorical and literal roses. He can be absentminded, distractible, and dawdles a bit, but he can eventually gets things done, albeit not always in a timely manner. Gathering herbs is one of his favorite tasks because he finds it relaxing and can take it at his own pace, although he often accompanies apprentices tasked with helping the medicine cats that aren’t as enthusiastic about it.
Physical Description
Lemonweed is a lanky Turkish Angora-mix with tufted ears and long fur on his cheeks, chest, front legs, and tail tip. Unlike many longhaired cats, Lemonweed’s fur does not hide his body type. He has long limbs, tall ears, and a long tail with a bend at the end that always hangs limply due to a past injury. The right side of his face is cream-colored, with darker cream speckles around both eyes, and his right ear is dark cream. His inner ears are a soft pink and his nose and paw pads are a rosy-orange. He has sleepy-looking, pale blue eyes and long, droopy whiskers. His tail is solid cream, and around the base of his tail are several patches of cream and dark cream fur.
They’re often seen with leaves stuck behind their ears and on their head, and it's not uncommon to see them with other herbs stuck in their fur. They wear a dark blue bandana around their neck that they found in the abandoned mall DustClan calls home, which they use for various tasks, including carrying herbs.
Scars / Injuries
- Broken tail tip.
Backstory
Lemonkit • Lemonpaw • Lemonweed
Early Life
Lemonkit and his sister, Applekit, were born in late Greenleaf to former-kittypet Sugarbird, a deaf Turkish Angora that joined DustClan after being intentionally displaced by her twoleg’s ex, and Burningoak, a DustClan-born warrior. When Lemonkit and Applekit were around one moon old, Applekit fell ill and passed away due to health complications. However, Lemonkit wasn’t as distraught over his sister’s death as Sugarbird and Burningoak.
Lemonkit was born with the ability to communicate with StarClan and see them walking amongst the living cats, and thus could see Applekit when she regularly visited. They spent much of their time playing with Applekit, although this didn’t go over well with Burningoak, since he believed Lemonkit was lying about his ability. Burningoak didn’t believe in StarClan, and was thrown off by Lemonkit’s insistence on being able to communicate with them. Despite this, he still supported Lemonkit’s interest in the role of medicine cat, telling them that as long as it really was what Lemonkit wanted to do, he wouldn’t oppose it.
Adolescence
Lemonpaw trained under Junipermask to become a medicine cat. He took well to the lifestyle, not really bothered by having to spend most of his training separate from the other apprentices. He especially enjoyed gathering herbs, as he found it relaxing and the scents pleasant.
Despite Lemonpaw not being a warrior’s apprentice, Burningoak still took it upon himself to train his son. Lemonpaw learned most of their hunting skills from Burningoak, as well as some battle techniques, although they really only picked up on the defensive ones. It was during one of these training sessions that Lemonpaw broke their tail, resulting in a permanent bend near its tip. Lemonpaw and Burningoak’s differing personalities and views often caused them to clash, resulting in a strained relationship. Throughout Lemonpaw’s apprenticeship, Burningoak saw how Lemonpaw become more and more spiritual. Lemonpaw regularly conversed with StarClan cats, picking up both medicine cat training and stories of the clans’ ancestors. Burningoak was very vocal about Lemonpaw remaining skeptical, and that even if StarClan were real, they were just like any other cats and shouldn’t be given any extra authority over the lives of the living.
Despite his strained relationship with his dad, Lemonpaw did begin to take Burningoak’s teachings to heart. This really began to pick up after he witnessed firsthand the negative impact StarClan’s interventions could have on young cats. A kit came to him and the other medicine cats, shaken up by a StarClan cat visiting them in their dreams with visions of what path the kit should take in life and the consequences if they didn’t. Soon after, Lemonpaw began getting in between StarClan and younger cats, marking the start of his mixed reputation with StarClan.
Not long before Lemonpaw would receive his full medicine cat name, Burningoak died after being crushed by falling debris during a storm.
Adulthood
Lemonweed hasn’t been a fully named medicine cat for very long. He still hangs out with Applekit, who has remained a consistent presence in his life.
Even after Burningoak died, he didn’t visit Lemonweed until after they received their full medicine cat name. When he did finally visit from StarClan, he told them that he was proud of them, and, even as a StarClan resident himself, to never stop questioning StarClan’s judgement.
Relationships
STANDING
DustClan
Lemonweed is generally well liked by his clanmates. He has a comforting presence that many appreciate having in a medicine cat, although several clanmates can be taken aback by his overt spirituality paired with his StarClan criticisms. His habit of talking to StarClan cats in public spaces can also make him look kind of odd.
They tend to be on the best terms with their fellow medicine cats and the queens, who appreciate them helping watch the kits. They get on well with apprentices, too, although they tend to weird them out.
STANDING
StarClan
Lemonweed has a very mixed relationship with StarClan. While having a medicine cat with Lemonweed’s abilities and level of spirituality is useful to them, his critical nature, skepticism, and habit of getting between them and young cats has gotten him on more than one StarClan resident’s bad side.
