name :: sootpaw


past name(s) :: sootkit


name at death :: sootpool


it's nice to see an uncommon prefix such as soot- used! a good name overall


5 out of 5


reasoning for prefix :: her soot coloured pelt


makes sense xD


reasoning for suffix :: she is very calm, like a still pool of water


would've liked to see a bit more reasoning beyond what's expected of the -pool suffix, but it still makes sense :P


4 out of 5


gender :: she-cat / molly / female


sexuality :: heterosexual / straight


*waits for all my gay friends to storm in and just leer at the straight*


but seriously it's fine lol, tbh i'm surrounded by so much gay that seeing a hetero is becoming quite uncommon


2 out of 2


appearance :: a light black she-kit with white paws & deep brown eyes


i assume you mean gray? and i thought she was an apprentice, not a kit- that being said, she seems realistic to me! cat master approved


4 out of 5


personality :: she is dependable, helpful, intelligent, quiet, secretive & quite worrisome


it would've been nice to see you go beyond listing adjectives, although i admit this may only be out of personal preference. real criticism: i would balance out her character a tiny bit by adding some more negative traits; you gave me one or two negatives trait out of six, depending on whether or not secretive counts as negative or not. even with being worrisome, she seems like a typical soft and shy character, which isn't inherently bad, but you might wanna give her some extra quirks to let her stand out more

current rank :: newly apprenticed


not graded


family ::


(sister) vinepaw - a white and black marble tabby she-cat with light brown eyes


i'm confused: is she supposed to have black fur which has stripes, to have black stripes directly on white fur, or to have black stripes upon a dark field? only the last of those options is genetically possible- since i don't know what your intention was, i don't know how to grade this. no problem with the eyes, though. as previously mentioned, i like seeing uncommon names be used, and as such is the case with vine-. she doesn't have her full name yet, but i hope you do her justice! no pressure-


(brother) birdpaw - a small gray tom with spotted tabby patterns


what colour eyes? no further questions :P


(mother) pantherflower - an unusually spotted she-cat with a black coat


-i'm going to assume you mean a melanistic bengal. i don't know what you mean by this?? again, you didn't give an eye colour. love her name though!


(father) cloudtooth - a white tabby tomcat with light amber eyes


-white tabby? no other colours are listed, and cats can't have stripes directly on white fur... no problem with the eyes, though, and -tooth is quite the rare suffix, so good on you lol


there's also a point to be raised about how this family isn't fully genetically possible; assuming pantherflower is in fact a bengal, birdpaw should be one as well, and there's no way for sootpaw herself to have ended up non-white and non-tabby, but i'll let it slide because there's no way you'd know that unless you research cat genetics. just a heads-up


friends :: n/a

backstory ::


sootpaw was always very passionate about protecting kin, which makes kin her weakness. when she was born, sootpaw was the quietest of the litter, never playing with the other kits and always hanging around her siblings or mother. it made her slightly boring to her friends (and even littermates) and she grew up with not many people around her. when she is apprenticed, she gets a wonderful mentor whom she gets her amazing hunting skills from. the night she is apprenticed, she and two other cats, a loner and a tribe cat, have a special dream from starclan and the tribe of endless hunting to do something that will save their clan's, tribe's and families lives

i assume it cuts off because you're going to write a story with her, so i understand why it's short, but i would've liked to see the rest of her story- have you yet to figure it out? still, about half of your paragraph was talking about how everyone sees her as mild, which is... not ideal? xD i'm intrigued though, with the tribe and loner becoming involved with her life. not something you see every day! however, there isn't much story here, as this paragraph seems to talk about the things before her story really begins- it's almost wholly about her kithood- and only the last sentence gets into what her adventure will be about. it'll be interesting to see her her kin being her weakness plays a part in her story!

additional information :: she lives in thunderclan, and the cat's names that she travels with are =

love the name dappled fur of fawn! tribe names are so underrated-

overall, sootpool is a pretty dang good oc! however, i'd have liked to see more backstory, and i still don't have a real idea of what vinepaw or pantherflower look like- i just used my own guesswork. don't see too many stories concerning the tribe! i suggest fleshing out sootpaw's personality a little and adding more to her story as soon as you get the inspiration!
