 Name: Tinystep
Short Description: A small tom with a dark pelt and a malformed front leg.
Age: 24 Moons
Gender: Tom
Family: His mother, Flowerfur
Clan: Shadowclan
Rank: Medicine Cat
Personality: Tinystep has always been a bit of a black sheep, a somewhat prickly cat on the outside, he puts up a lot of defenses to protect himself from being harmed by the words and stares of others. He prefers to deal with his issues by bottling them up, rather than talking to anyone about them. This causes him to become overwhelmed easily, often leading to a meltdown where he loses his cool and speaks rashly. Tinystep has the capacity to be kind, the ability to be loving and soft, but to get there he must trust you absolutely, and gaining his trust is incredibly difficult. As a medicine cat he tends to be especially soft to kits and elders, showing them a sliver of his kind side, whereas with warriors he often has shorter patience. He is often incredibly self conscious when it comes to his paw, and will get very withdrawn and nervous when it is brought up. He has never felt slighted by Starclan, and instead does his destined duty with pride.
History: Tinykit was born in the middle of leaf bare, when food was scarce and every clan member was feeling the effects, his mother, Flowerfur, was on the verge of Greencough when he was born, and many think that that is why he was so small, and why his paw was malformed. The clan was devastated upon seeing the tiny kit desperately trying to nurse the other who couldn't provide milk, but none were more hurt than Flower, who ached upon seeing her only kit, so small that the chance of his survival were incredibly slim. But with the help of the queens of Shadowclan, Tinykit survived the leafbare. But as he approached the age that most kits would become apprentices, there was a mumbling among the clan. What would they do with him? His paw remained very small, and deformed, barring him from ever becoming a warrior, his mother fretted on this fact as the leader pondered on his fate. It was the current Medicine cat who offered to take the young kit under his tail, and thus Tinykit became Tinypaw.
Tinypaw enjoyed his time as a medicine cat apprentice, and enjoyed playing with the other apprentices, they never stared or made fun of him for his oddity, he felt accepted and at home in his clan. And then the gathering came. He'd been incredibly excited when his mentor told him that he would be attending the next gathering, and groomed his pelt to perfection when the day arrived. But it couldn't have gone more wrong, the jeers and remarks that befell the young apprentice receded him further and further into a shell, and by the time the gathering ended, he was a different cat. The other clans could be cruel, especially the other apprentices, and he grew to resent them for the way they treated him, his future gathering would be spent in silence, sitting away from the rest or tightly knit with his own clanmates.
When he was finally of age, the now elderly medicine cat made the announcement to the clan, that he would be stepping down, and giving the mantle to Tinypaw, who was named Tinystep, for his small size and quiet demeanor. Two moons later his former mentor passed on to Starclan, making Tiny the full medicine cat to Shadowclan.
