Ravenpaw

Ravenpaw is both a large and incredibly fluffy cat, giving her the appearance (and reality) of being a very big cat. She's by far the largest member of both SkyClan and DarkClan, rivaled only by her own mother, who's nearly as large as she is.

Her ears are tall and pointed, and have tufts of fur at their tips. One of these tufts is black, while the other is white. Her coat is largely very dark in colour, having only a few splashes of white on the end of her tail, a feather-like marking on her chest, and one of her front paws. While she is technically a tabby, her pelt is so dark that it's hard to make out her stripes.

Her eyes are a piercing red colour, with black pupils.

Ravenpaw is a dangerous combination of ambitious, aggressive, and a lack of empathy. She does whatever it takes to achieve her goals with no remorse for how it affects those around her. She's able to manipulate those around her into agreeing with her, whether what she's saying is actually true or not.

She's very cunning, able to come up with solid plans for attacks, ambushes, and defenses with relative ease. She also has a surprising amount of medicinal knowledge due to spending a lot of time with SkyClan's medicine cat AutumnMaple when she was an apprentice in the Clan.

She can be very stubborn about her ways, and always wants to be right. She doesn't like being talked back to or told that she's wrong about something. She has a very short temper and is quick to anger.

Growing up, Ravenpaw was always one to get into trouble. She had (and still has) a short temper, and frequently got into fights with other cats, especially her brother, Cloudstep (Cloudpaw at the time). She also frequently wandered away from her Clan's camp, much to her clanmate's concern over where she'd gone off to.

She met Icemask when she was still a kit, after almost freezing to death in the cold after getting lost one day. He guided her as she grew up ever since then.

During her time as an apprentice in SkyClan, she frequently got into trouble due to disrespecting her mentor, Rainstorm, and due to getting into fights with the other apprentices (and sometimes even warriors). She eventually was sentenced with a punishment of a two moon halt on her training until she was able to clean up her act. During her time out of training, she began helping AutumnMaple with his duties as a medicine cat, and became friends with him. She believed he was the only cat other than Icemask that she could trust. Icemask was continueing to train her during this time as well, and fueled her rage towards her mentor and other members of her Clan.

One day she attempted to kill her mentor, egged on by Icemask. She failed this attempt, to his great displeasure, due to panicing during the event. She later goes on to killing Magpiesong with death berries, followed by eventually tricking and successfully killing Rainstorm via the same poisonous berry.

After killing Rainstorm she was driven out of SkyClan, during which time she fatally wounded her brother, Cloudstep, in her escape. She was swept down a river and nearly drowned before being washed ashore some ways away from her pursuers. Afterwards, she traveled far away, coming across several loners and kittypets who join her due to her promising them a better life with her. They eventually find a place to live in the mountains, where she formed DarkClan, and became its first leader. She never took on a warrior or leaders name, as she doesn't believe it's proper to give one to herself, and she relishes in the anger and satisfaction she gets when she remembers why she never recieved her full name.

During her time as leader of DarkClan, she kidnapped a young kit from a neighbouring Clan named Ironkit, who she ended up adopting as her own and training to be her heir.
