Sorrelflare | 38 Moons | Windclan | Water | Female
General Info
Previous Clan(s): N/A
Element: Water
Sexuality: Panromantic demisexual
Physical Appearance
Brief Description: A lithe red silver tabby with hazel eyes
In-depth Description: Sorrelflare is a long, lithe feline. She is tall and slender like many of her clanmates, with long limbs and a narrow head, ears large and pointed to encourage heat loss. Her fur is mostly of medium length with a thick, layered texture that traps heat and protects from the sun - her tail however is much more plumed and feathery, with a slight kink at the end which gives it a permanent curl. Fitting in with the lighter golden hues of her clanmates, Sorrelflare is primarily a pale cream that darkens toward her back and lightens toward her underbelly, never quite reaching white but getting close around her muzzle. Her patterning is bright sorrel ginger broken mackerel striping interspersed with large spots, with a perfect thin streak along the dorsal length of her tail. Her nose and paw pads are a clear pink and her eyes a copper tinted hazel.

Personality description: Perhaps the best way to describe Sorrelflare would be that she is enigmatic, and yet strangely pleasant. To most, it is difficult to get a grip on how they feel about her, or even what they expect. She is an open-minded and amiable feline, the calm and pleasant mannerisms that at least making her approachable. She is as gentle as she looks, and certainly very patient no matter how frustrating the feline or situation she is faced with may be. However, this is merely a slight chip in her complex surface. For the most part, her curiosity drives almost everything about her. It makes her keen to experiment, using her intelligence in a rather innovative and unorthodox way; but it also makes her distant, almost detached in how eerie, dispassionate and impassive she has become. She holds to the belief that knowledge is everything, and takes it to an extreme that seems to put emotions far in the back of her mind. If anything, emotions are merely something she can observe, watching with great intrigue, while also being rather dismissive of this in turn. That is not to say she cannot comprehend emotion, of course - she may seem to feel it in a strange way, but she can still understand and react accordingly to the feelings of others, she simply does not bother to give them much weight. Perhaps because of this, her honesty is something that leads to many mixed feelings, as she will not hide the truth, though she will at least offer the more sensitive honesties with some tact.
Weirdly, Sorrelflare is both ordered and oddly chaotic at the same time. She is a cat that, due to thriving off of knowledge, adores a new challenge and new situations. She will take any opportunity to learn in stride, and thus it is rare to see her flinch away from anything, even gravitating toward more morbid and unnerving scenarios like a moth to a flame. However, despite her love for new situations, she also has her preference toward order and routine. When it comes to things within her control, Sorrelflare can be rather fastidious. She tends to like things just so, and anything that looks or feels out of place will be caught under her exacting gaze and scrutinized until she has either resolved the issue or adjusted to it. She is not inflexible, but she is very systematic and tends to take a methodical approach to many things. At the very least, this means she will always do a job well done, and her memory is sharp and well ordered.

History
History: Sorrelkit's parents were not what one might call ideal parents, and certainly did not fit Windclan's preference for passionate couples. They had their three daughters on a flight of fancy and only came together to raise their kits into intelligent warriors, never actually becoming mates. They were both rather distant felines, and while they treated their kits well, they did not nurture their emotions or treat them according to the age they were. They had high expectations, yet they never made these expectations fully known, preferring to leave their kits to figure things out for themselves. Where Specklekit and Hazelkit could never truly live up to what their parents desired from their kits, Sorrelkit's curious yet strange mind seemed to please them.
As an apprentice, Sorrelpaw's mentor had much clearer expectations - that she should retain her natural curiosity, but develop a bit more empathy, rather than the kind of curiosity that saw her attack her denmates just to see what would happen. He was only minorly successful. He managed to teach her to recognize and understand the emotions of others, and even to be gentler and calmer, but he never managed to corral her mind into something more natural. In the hopes of helping her understand, he pushed her to befriend the medicine cat apprentice Mistypaw. Whether the older apprentice ever felt at ease around her was something Sorrelpaw never truly cared about, but her strange curiosity ventured into an intense interest in healing. She enjoyed the organization of herbs and the challenge of trying to memorize so many little details, but most of all, the thought of evaluating injuries and figuring out how to mend them seemed to fascinate her. It was not quite what her mentor had hoped, but he did not try hard to avert her interest, in the hopes she would finally understand what he wanted her to.
By the time she became a warrior, Sorrelflare had still not quite mellowed out. Her curiosity still came in bright, exotic bursts, and her new name was due in part to this. However, as she grew and the dangers of her previously calm life began to rise she settled. By the time she reached her twentieth moon, it was hard to tell what the warrior was thinking, though she was never one to shy away from telling when asked. Her curiosity for injured cats and memorizing herbs never truly waned, but with wolves beginning to ravage the clan, she began to put a little more focus on safety. However, as the wolves took not only their leader and deputy but their medicine cat as well, it would seem perhaps her destiny was set for a new, familiar course. When her sisters disappeared under another wolf attack, Sorrelflare seemed more watchful than ever, though if she mourned them, it was nigh impossible to tell.
