GINGERFROST
Name: Gingerfrost
Gender: She-cat
Clan: ThunderClan
Position: Medicine cat
Appearance:
Gingerfrost has beautiful ginger fur for her flank and pelt with darker but still light streaks of ginger down her back. Her underbelly, paws and muzzle are all white. Gingerfrost has always had very chic, intense, electric blue eyes that really pop out on her light orange/white fur. Her general appearance has been said to be beautiful and attractive, though she has vowed to StarClan never to love one more than friendship.
Personality:
Gingerfrost has been said to have a mixed personality. She is very cautious and quick on her feet, aware of her surroundings. But, being young, she is energetic and cheerful. However, besides being highly friendly to almost every cat, she is very fierce and tough. Very sly and nonchalant, she is. But she has been known mostly for her motivation and energy. Despite being blind, Gingerfrost knows her way around to places and has excellent senses -- that are other than sight.
History:
Gingerfrost was born and raised in ThunderClan. She wasn't blind from the day of her birth, but I shall tell you how she became blinded further into her life's story. She was the youngest kit in a litter of three, and was small, too. Being the runt, she was picked on a ton. But Gingerfrost never really did mind all of the friendly teasing, she suspected that it was pretty much just a little joke. Her kithood was a fair and average one, nothing much to say here. Three days after birth, she met her father. He was a strong warrior, and a senior one at that. He didn't have much time for her, and didn't take much pride in her because of her scrawny, sleek build. He told her "Being that size, Gingerkit, you'll be a poor warrior at best." that really brought her spirits down.
Gingerfrost was raised as a warrior apprentice. Gingerpaw. On her second moon of training, Gingerpaw was tossed into a terrible accident. In a battle with WindClan on a sunny day, she was tossed upward, forcing her eyes to direct towards the sun. Gingerpaw had always had weak eyes, and this didn't exactly help much. So as her neck was injured and she couldn't turn away, she was blinded by the furious light of the sunshine.
I'll say now that before Gingerfrost became blind, she had always been thoroughly interested in the actions of the Clan medicine cat. The current medicine cat already had an apprentice, and was old. But, a few days after Gingerpaw became blind, their current medicine cat retired. Gingerpaw, no longer able to proceed with her warrior training, asked to reside to the medicine cat apprentice position and was given the spot.
Gingerpaw adored medicine cat training. Though she couldn't see anything, her other senses became much sharper, and she could smell the herbs to identify them, and in her dreams, she was able to see, as she knew the forest from her previous warrior training. Her mentor was young but wise and knew what to do and how to train Gingerpaw. She didn't find much difficulty in being a medicine cat apprentice. And, after a lot of moons of training, and her mentor was much older now, he -- her mentor -- retired.
Gingerpaw became Gingerfrost, and took up the position of medicine cat. This was about three moons ago, so she is fairly new to the responsibility. But, as I said before, she was mentored well and knew the world well.
