| Personality | Wise, stern, and knowledgeable, Threeleg was never the most emotive tom. He doesn't let the things that he knows get to him, and generally thinks that his actions have no consequences outside of what was destined to transpire. He, like Fireweedfuzz, believes there is a correct path to take, but ultimately believes that choices merely change minor things. He needs to think this way or he would notice a lot of fucked-up things that have occurred through his life and feel bad about them. | |
| History | Treekit was born an only kit, missing his front legs. His father was the WeedClan deputy, and known as the strongest fighter in the clan, and his mother left when he started getting pushy about having a second litter, the first apparently too small. He would repeatedly insist to his son that it wasn't him who was too small, just that he didn't have any siblings, and Treekit chose to believe him for his own well-being. The leader's expectations for his prized deputy's litter were high, and he'd gone to have his own kits in anticipation, only managing to procure Fireweedkit after the fact. Treekit knew what was expected of him, and kept his distance from the younger kit growing up, not wanting to get bored of her too quickly. The leader gave his father special permission to be his mentor, believing him to be the only one who could bring out "Threepaw's" potential. He never asked about the name change and is not sure if he thought they were always calling him 'Three' or he had a reason for calling him that. It was only made more confusing when he was named Threeleg as a warrior. He had two legs. The leader thought he was doing something inspiring with it. Threeleg was an accomplished warrior, and was known for his prowess in sparring. How he would have fared in an actual battle was never tested, as WeedClan did not get into fights. As their fathers wanted, Threeleg and Fireweedfuzz got together and had two kits, Bazzaniakit and Treekit (who stayed named "Tree," for the record). Treekit's head was always in the clouds, it seemed, while Bazzaniakit had a drive to succeed as a warrior. When they were close to being apprenticed though, Fireweedfuzz got him and the clan's leadership in a hurry. On the sleeping kits, there were two leaves; a green leaf on Bazzaniakit, and a long-dead leaf on Treekit. The medicine cat took this as a sign that Bazzaniakit was meant to be the medicine cat apprentice and Treekit would be horrible for the role. The kits were upset that their plans were suddenly changed. To prove himself, Bazzaniakit ran away, and taught himself to hunt on his own. Treepaw was apprenticed to a warrior while he was gone, and was grumpy the whole time. Bazzaniakit's return just so happened to line up with a meeting between all the medicine cats that was taking place in WeedClan's territory. Treepaw took the opportunity to plead her case to the medicine cats of all the clans, and SurfClan decided that they would train her, despite PoolClan's fears that the omen was a bad sign. Things almost bubbled to a fight, but ultimately, no one thought it was worth it to fight SurfClan for their sake, and Treepaw left. Threeleg was proud of Bazzaniakit's catches, and told the leader that he'd earned the right to a warrior mentor. Bazzaniapaw proved himself, like his father and his father before him, and was made a warrior relatively quickly. He grew cocky however, something Threeleg made sure to warn him about, starting to wonder if the clans had made the right choice allowing the kits to choose their own paths. His son barely heeded his warning, and nearly ended up dead after hunting outside of the territory and getting mauled by a coyote. During his recovery though, he realized just how impressive the medicine cat really was, and started as an apprentice. Treebough, meanwhile, became SurfClan's primary medicine cat too early following the death of her mentor. She didn't have much of a relationship with her parents at this point, but Bazzaniashine would let them know how much she argued with him at half-moon meetings. The other medicine cats affirmed that Bazzaniashine's information was correct in each of these arguments, Treebough apparently trying to give the impression of being knowledgeable when she wasn't. Unbeknownst to her family, she had a daughter with a younger warrior following a heartbreak. She kept this a secret, and they only met when they were both dead. Threeleg died when the clans were leaving the territories and were lost on a lifeboat, drifting on the ocean. Many cats didn't make it. From StarClan, he witnessed Bazzaniashine joining RainClan while Rosalie had his kits outside of the clan, Fireweedfuzz meeting them and dying in the mountains, and Treebough getting a job in the city. | |
