Queen/Warrior
I'd do anything for you...
Beautiful. To put it in one word, this queen is beautiful. If she was a twoleg, she would be one of the popular girls who all the guys would want to go out with and all the girls would want to be her best friend. But who says that not what those around her think? Any tom would love to have her as their mate because of her short, but silky fur is still as soft as a newborn kits pelt.
Her pelt is a gorgeous dark tan that turns golden in the morning light. The large chocolaty brown stripes that cover her body make her look smaller but they turn into black spots as you go down her legs until they reach her completely spotless paws. Her paws are small and delicate, some of her fellow Clanners think that they are too small for battle, though her ebony claws are long, thin, and always razor sharp. Her eyes are a bright turquoise that seem to shine when she's happy and easily hide what she feels.
Anything for your love...
When you first meet her you might come to thinking that this cat is caring and loving for all things. I'm sorry to say that you are dead wrong. Around others she may act like that, but in truth she becomes bored fairly easy, her patience runs very thin and you never want to make it snap or you may find out the nasty side of her. She can have a temper when she is forced to do something that she really doesn't want to do, so basically she's a brat who wants everything.
Well, everything but kits that is. She absolutely hates kits, never wanted to have them and to this day is still trying to figure out how Windystorm talked her into having them. At first she had questioned her decision about giving her first litter to Windystorm to take to his old Clan, but after having her next litter she wished that he could have some how taken this litter too. They annoyed her in so many ways and she neglects them. The one thing that they all ever wanted was love from her, even if it was just a single smile, but she never gave it to them.
The only cat that she ever loved was Windystorm, her mate. Everytime he is around her she acts like she did that first time she ever saw him. Her legs will go weak, she gets that look in her eyes, sometimes she stumbles over her words, and she'll do anything he asks her to do. She never really gave her kits a second glance after they left the nursery.
What can ever separate us...
Parents...
Before Raccoonmask was ever born there were her parents. Her father went by the name of Snowstorm while her mother had gone by the name Songbird. Her fathers pelt was the sweet color of snow but had strange looking spots on them. The elders claimed that he looked like a legendary snow leopard from past stories of when they roamed the land. He was a large fellow and the apprentices always joked around that he really was a snow leopard.
Her mother was a black tortoiseshell with larger then normal white paws. She was a small cat but her fur was long and silky. Others claimed that she was really beautiful and attractive but she hated her fur. When she was growing up, she always wished that she had her own mothers fur. A golden brown with dark brown and completely black spots. Or even her fathers chocolaty brown fur with deep black stripes. But no. She got her ugly grandmothers tortoiseshell fur.
She always envied other she-cats fur and that was how she fell in love with Snowstorm. His beautiful white and black spotted fur drew her in and he also fell in love with her. It was love at first sight. For a while Songbird didn't even think about her own fur, she just thought about the two of them. Alone. Forever.
Then came the kits.
Kithood...
Songbird never liked kits and she never wanted them but pretty soon she became pregnant with them. Three kits. Hollowkit, a tiny white female with black spots, like her dad. Brokenkit, a tortoiseshell tom that looked like his mother. And finally Lostkit. Songbird hated her the most because she had the fur that Songbird wanted so much. Beautifully thick dark chocolate stripes on top of tanish/gold fur. She looked like both of Songbirds parents put together.
When Snowstorm asked why she had named the kits such awful names Songbird merely replied that Hollowkit looked like a hollowed out shell of her father and didn't look like she was going to survive the cold storm that was blowing outside. Brokenkit was a tortoiseshell that was never going to have kits, and Lostkit because her parents beautiful looks were wasted on a pathetic little thing.
Snowstorm was appalled by her and at that moment lost all love for the she-cat and renamed Lostkit to be Raccoonkit. Hollowkit died from the storm because she became malnourished after only the first two days. Snowstorm realized Songbird was trying to starve the poor kits and made sure she was feeding them. But it took up a lot of his time. His fur became unkempt, his temper shortened, and his patience tried. Everytime he left the nursery to make sure Songbird was feeding them she would push the kits away.
Finally Brokenkit died of some disease that took over his body, making him weak to the point of being unable to move. All that was left was Raccoonkit.
Apprenticeship...
Raccoonkit soon became Raccoonpaw and her mother couldn't be any happier. But sadly she was only happy that she was finally escaping the nursery. Raccoonpaw could only watch as her parents separated. Her last few months in the nursery she had only been witness to her parents constantly fighting, sometime even with tooth and claw. She thought she would forget all about them when she became an apprentice but her life only worsened.
She became an apprentice to a tom named Longfang, a thin Siamese cat who loved to push around apprentices During training she was always punished with his claws and scared to death by his threats of what would happen if she didn't tell other that the blood marks on her were just wounds from her being clumsy. But then her mentor died some how, though it was rumored that he was purposefully killed by someone who knew Raccoonpaw was being abused. She was given a new mentor. Her own father. The rest of her apprentices days she was happy and her father one day confessed that it was he who killed Longfang.
One day a patrol she was in came across a BrightClan patrol. Raccoonpaw didn't even know what the whole thing was about, all she remembers is a handsome apprentice named Windypaw. Ever since that patrol her head was filled with the thoughts of the gray apprentice. Soon they both saw each other at a Clan gathering and confessed that they liked each other and soon after that Raccoonpaw became pregnant. Sadly not to long after that Raccoonpaw's mother disappeared while her father died of depression.
Warrior
The newly named Raccoonmask knew she was going to have her kits soon and should have stayed in the camp but she couldn't help but leave it to see Windystorm one more time before she was going to be stuck in the cramped nursery for a few moons. When the two met and settled down to talk, Raccoonmask suddenly started to have her kits. She wanted to go back because it was so dark and rainy but Windystorm wanted her to have them on his territory and out of love she agreed.
When the three kits were born Windystorm told her that he was taking them to his camp so he could raise them. Even though Raccoonmask didn't want to be parted from them, she could help but think of those boring days in the nursery. She agreed.
Going back to the camp thinner and without any kits, she claimed that she had gone out for a walk when she started to give birth to the kits and then the rain started so she found a place to stay where they would be partly dry. After the rain stopped a fox had some how smelled the blood and found them. It attacked and grabbed the three kits. She knew that it wasn't a very well planned story, but the Clan believed it and comforted her. Moons later Windystorm entered the Clan camp, accompanied by two warriors. He claimed that his Clan accused his of something that he didn't do and banished him. BrightClan reluctantly welcomed him into the Clan.
Raccoonmask and Windystorm acted like they had never met, then fell in love, and soon had another litter of kits. It was clear that Windystorm had no love for the kits and Raccoonmask acted like she didn't either but cared for them enough to keep them alive and no more. She still remembered her days with her mother but the being in the nursery for so long, she became bored and pushed her kits away when they were done feeding.
She never gave them a second glance after they became apprentices, she just focuses on Windystorm and what she could do to make him happy with her.
