Brief History
Born a rogue and lived most of her life in the areas near where RiverClan was made. When the clans were formed she joined RiverClan not long after not wanting to raise her child as a rogue fearing they could get hurt. Although that didn't end how she wanted she decided to stay in the clan not seeing a reason to return to her rogue life.

Rogue life
She was originally born a rogue to her mother, Light, and her father, Hawk. They lived near the area where RiverClan would be formed later in the future but at the time it was just a group of rogues. Her parents decided to not be a part of it as they preferred fending for only their family but still lived nearby as there was good places to hunt. As a kit she often payed outside her family's den but never strayed too far. She never had any friends growing up seeing as it was just her and her family. She never really though to go explore towards the group of rogues nearby seeing as her parents often went through a lot of effort avoiding them. Time carried on with little action happening in her life. It wasn't until she was about an apprentice's age that she stumbled upon another rogue around her age living nearby. She seemed to hesitate around the other at first but the more they talked the more she came to visit him since her parents were often busy. Upon finally becoming an adult the two planned to start living together. A few moons in and Mapleflower found out she was expecting. This seemed to cause some tension between the two as she pointed out that raising a kit as a rogue could be extremely dangerous and began pushing the idea of living amongst the rogue group. This caused for her mate at the time to grow spiteful towards her saying she had been reckless and didn't want to raise a kit nor run away back to any of the groups. Months seemed to drag by as the two continued to live together despite their argument that tore them apart. Though her mate seemed to stick around, at the time she didn't realize what for. When the time neared she decided she couldn't stay with the other as she put her kit's life over the other's. She left at night time and joined the group not long after. Her first kit was born who she named Lily at the time. She spent a lot of time with the other excited to be raising a kit of her own.

Warriorhood
It wasn't long until RiverClan was formed, causing her to feel more comfort as the group seemed more stable and safe than just being random group of rogues. She got settled into her new life taking on her warrior name, Mapleflower, as well. She seemed content with her life as she learned her warrior duties and continued raising her kit. Though the content at the time didn't seem to last long as she awoke one night to find her kit missing. She searched where she could that night but seeing the other no where to be found quickly came to a conclusion that maybe she'd just wandered off and would return. Days continued to drag on and with no return of her kit, soon leading her to believe that she was gone for good. She felt a terrible guilt inside her as she realized she could have searched more that night. She never seemed to truly get over the loss of her kit, often still feeling guilt and anger towards herself whenever the topic was brought up, but eventually she forced herself to carry on deciding to stay in RiverClan as she saw no reason to return back to her life as a rogue despite the reason she'd joined in the first place being gone. She continued on doing her warrior duties and distancing herself from others not seeming up to make friends for quite a while. It wasn't until Woolymask approached her one day that she seemed to start opening up a little. She chatted with the other for quite a while before quickly finding herself taking a liking to the other. As she continued with her duties, despite the hardships that were happening in the clan, she often found herself thinking back to her new friend as she went along. Whenever she could she'd strike up a conversation with the other whenever she could, relieved to find a cat she could slowly open up to after spending most of her life alone and bitter towards others.

As the days went by, and Mapleflower grew closer to Woolymask, she soon realized it was love that she felt towards the other molly, who, unfortunately, hadn't realized that yet. They spent many days with each other, hunting and chatting, until one afternoon, when Woolymask had slept in late. Mapleflower had been waiting just outside the warrior's den, the nervousness consuming her as the deputy shook herself awake. She knew today was the day she'd confess how she felt - but she feared it was a bad time, especially since Wooly had just woken up. Despite these doubts, she continued with her plan, offering to walk with Woolymask for a little while, relieved when the other molly accepted - on the impression that they'd get some hunting done on the way. Mapleflower led her out of camp, all the way to the hiking trail, where she slowed to a stop and finally admitted how she felt about Woolymask. The smaller molly was baffled, but clearly more than happy, which warmed Mapleflower's heart. She was relieved to know that she could express her love for the deputy openly at last, but knew she would have to get used to the term 'mates' for sure. Happily, the two of them headed home, hearts warm and spirits light.

She was proud of her mate when her leadership came and although she would miss the leader before she knew Woolystar would do just as amazing. Though her mate's leadership was much more quiet at first she was still a bit nervous that things could go wrong in the near future.

Without warning BloodClan unleashed a raid on RiverClan leaving her in shock as Shadow came directly to her and her mate's den. She fought tooth and nail to protect her mate but sadly wasn't able to stop the BloodClan leader from taking one life. She did her best to run the cat back out as the battle came to an end. Though she felt great dread as she saw what state the clan was left in. After that battle she stuck by her mate's side as much as she could. Though this calm didn't last long as her mate seemed to grow oddly ill. She nervously watched over the other as she seemed to grow worse and seemed to keep gaining weight. After several trips to Turtlegarden it was finally revealed that Woolystar was actually pregnant. She was confused yet happy in that moment and didn't really think about how such a thing happened. When their daughter finally arrived the two were overjoyed and managed to live a quiet life for the rest of her mate's leadership. Though one day Woolystar came to her and told her how she was stepping down and was leaving the clans behind as well. Hesitant she only walked her mate out, not wanting to leave her second child behind. Although she was sad about her family being split up she knew that one day she and her daughter could go venture out and reunite with Woolstar.
