Flame

Appearance & Personality
Flame is a small-sized ragdoll with a light, soft coat. Her pelt is partly white with hints of a darker gray color, especially on tail and back. The darker colors can also be seen on her ears and parts of the face in the area around eyes and muzzle, in addition to her tiny paws. This dark color stands in contrast with her snowy white underbelly and chest. As other ragdolls, she also has the characteristic icy blue eye color and a tiny, pink nose. Around her neck, a sleek collar is hanging with a bluish color matching her eye-color, grading from a very dark blue on the top to a lighter- almost white- in the end. She also has a scar running down her side from the first SkyClan raid, in addition to deep wounds showing on her hind leg from the last fight with Shadow.

Flame is quite different from the leaders before her. She doesn't have the same revenge-seeking and brutal way of leading, but shouldn't be considered soft for this reason. Her disgust for the other clans is strong and she isn't letting anyone disrespect her. Her behaviour changed quickly when becoming a part of BloodClan. From a chill, optimistic attitude as a WindClanner, she turned colder and more nervous over time. She is very hesitant of sharing her inner thoughts and feelings, as she's constantly afraid of showing any weakness in front of her clanmates. While Flame is usually covering her sad emotions with sarcasm and sometimes even humour, she is actually quite an honest female who doesn't need to think twice before ripping someone's pelt off- if they deserve it. Because loyalty and justice are both motives she highly values and is willing to go far to fully receive. If you betray her, she will for sure take revenge and make you pay for what you've done. So it isn't the best idea to get on bad terms with her. However, she cares lots for the few cats she completely trusts, and wouldn't hesitate sacrificing her own life for them if it's the only way out.

Brief History
Flame was born in a typical twoleg home, but at a quite young age her owners dumped the young kitten into the trash due to unknown reasons. It wasn't long before the tiny ragdoll managed to reach the WindClan border, fortunately taken in with open paws by the Clan cats. However, her whole kithood was affected by the constant stereotypes of being born as a kittypet, in addition to her strong disbelief and hatred of StarClan. This feeling of not belonging anywhere grew stronger as she turned into a warrior, and when the rouge Trunk offered to join a new and independent group, it seemed like an obvious solution to her problems. This lead to her joining BloodClan, and by that betraying all her friends in WindClan. Heartbroken and bitter when starting to regret her decision, she found comfort when saving a lost kitten at the territory, finally finding a true purpose to live for. But the guilt quickly returned as Shadow had them raid WindClan, her former home-place, several times and she started building up a hatred for the leader and her choices- leading to why she challenged Shadow in the pit fights, which ended in Flame killing the other she-cat and receiving the leadership of BloodClan.

Kithood
Flame's life started in a nice twoleg home with the name "Milo", along with some unknown siblings. Milo was from the beginning of her life, loving food and always having an overly amount of energy. However, things seemed to change when she at a young age had her life turn upside down as she was dumped by her owners into the garbage due to reasons Milo never got to learn. Scared and alone, Milo started to explore the territories outside her former home-place, managing to reach the WindClan border. Luckily, the clancats welcomed her into the clan and she received the clan-name "Nettlekit".

Nettlekit was a joyful, but slightly lazy kitten, who struggled with trusting the cats around her as she'd been betrayed before. She didn't trust anyone enough to show her actual feelings, rather putting on a fake smile to cover up any insecurities. As a kitten she didn't really bother exploring a lot, nor play with the other kittens. Instead, she was enjoying to stay inside the Nursery during the day by herself. This was both because she was a bit lazy, and since she didn't feel like belonging with the others, due to her background as a kittypet.

Apprenticeship
Time passed, and soon enough Nettlepaw finally started her apprentice training, as a moor runner. She was never the most talented apprentice, and seemed to mostly value the lunch breaks. Her mentor was also quite absence throughout her apprenticeship, only giving her a handful of lessons, so most of the time went to exploring the territory by herself. This lead to Nettlepaw constantly trespassing on other clans territories and always getting herself into some sort of trouble. She didn't really have any supervision from a mentor, nor understood the point of the borders in the first place, which were probably the main reasons for often breaking the Warrior Code repeatedly. The young apprentice even encountered Darkstar, back then the SkyClan leader, when hunting on the other clan's territory- struggling with learning the correct hunting technique on her own. This surprisingly lead to the leader giving her a quick lesson, before letting her leave with a warning- something which actually had a great impact on the young WindClanner, as she now seemed to be more motivated for the apprentice training. In addition to finally understanding the importance of borders.

As mentioned earlier, Nettlepaw wasn't the most socially gifted during her kithood, but this seemed to change as she grew older. She finally started to take initiative with making friends and getting to know more cats, and befriended the tom Pinepaw. The two apprentices used to run across the moors and even explored the barn one time, when Nettlepaw almost injured herself when falling through the ceiling of an old car.

Even though she now seemed happier than ever before, she kept blaming herself for her being abandoned as a kitten. In addition to meeting other difficulties, such as finding StarClan and other beliefs of the clancats hard to follow as she didn't believe in their existence at all. However, this pain was well hidden behind humour and jokes, not trusting anyone with her true feelings since she still didn't feel like completely belonging in the clan.

Warrior life
Still not being the most talented hunter, only slightly better than the average in fighting techniques and a professional in eating, even Nettlepaw managed to receive her warrior name, Nettleflame. The newly made warrior did surprisingly good as a WindClan warrior, serving the clan well. She did among other things help the apprentice Hazelpaw with preparing for her warrior assessment, leading to them creating a friendship. However, at the same time the discomfort of not belonging to the clans and her annoyance of StarClan was growing stronger than ever before.

Things seemed to hit rock-bottom when the Median appeared, whom claimed she had a special connection with the afterlife and the ability to communicate with spirits. Even though Nettleflame herself wasn't directly affected of the events, she seemed to lose all trust in the clans afterwards, even starting to disgust them. She found it difficult to be apart of a clan when not even the slightly sharing their beliefs or mindset, especially when finding this whole situation idiotic. Based of all these troubled thoughts, despite having friends in the clan, she terribly wanted a change of living.

BloodClan life
The solution came sooner than expected. While chasing a rabbit on the territory, she encountered a rouge named Trunk, who claimed to have created a new group- completely without any religion or code to follow. This offer was clearly tempting to Nettleflame, as it seemed to be everything she'd ever wished for, a place with freedom and no boundaries. Little did she know this group would soon turn into BloodClan, a place with revenge and no mercy. Along with a few others, such as Shadow, Snapdragon, Katrina and Bumble, Nettleflame turned her back at WindClan and joined this unknown group only with the hope it would be a better opportunity. She quickly changed her name to Flame, and received to her disgust a collar to wear. Which reminded her of the days as a kittypet, but she got used to it over time.

In the beginning, Flame barely missed WindClan and her former life, enjoying being free without any limits to stay behind. However, the joy was short-lived when finally understanding the reality and true intentions of this new group. After Shadow killed Trunk when challenging her leadership and becoming the new leader of the newly named "BloodClan", Flame wasn't sure if she could stand behind these actions and continue living with these cats. But decided to stay, both due to the fact she couldn't return to WindClan after betraying them out of nowhere, and because she low-key started to like their ways of living- even though they were at times brutal.
