{ P E R S O N A L I T Y }

positive : resourceful, accommodating 

Bullet; Green resourceful
"IvyClan cats, roll yourselves in mud and use the brush to take cover. Thornstar will never be able to see us, let alone scent us. It's the perfect attack."

As sneaky as Dovestar is, she has to be just as resourceful to back it up. Most IvyClan cats have this trait, and as such, it rings true for this she-cat. She will conceive a plan of attack on a whim, and will further finish it as the time to use it approaches. 

Bullet; Green accommodating
"Please, come back to camp. We will keep you fed until you're fit to return to your own."

Dovestar won't turn away an injured cat, as she sees it as an opportunity to twist them, either to her own will or to get information. She'll butter them up, and then hold the knife to them at a later date. Her doing a favor for you, means you now owe her, and she will hold it over your head.

neutral : headstrong

Bullet; White headstrong
"IvyClan takes what is theirs, and we fight for it. The rivers belong to US, Prickles."

This two-faced she-cat will set her mind to something, and will set to it to see that it is addressed. She's become stubborn, and if you want to take something from IvyClan, you'll have to pry it from her cold, dead paws.

negative : jealous, deceitful, selfish, vindictive

Bullet; Red jealous
"It should have been me, not that mousehearted fool.."

When Dovestar was young, she was betrayed by a tom she thought was her friend. She grew defensive and jagged, and is now quite the jealous soul. She doesn't take nicely to others being better than her.

Bullet; Red deceitful
"Hum? No, of course not. You have our full cooperation."

Dovestar aways has her reasons for doing what she does. Seldom does this she-cat ever do something out of the kindness of her heart. Some cats rumor that her heart is cold and dead, others say that she never had one at all.

Bullet; Red selfish
"This patch of woods is no longer under CypressClan control. It now belongs to IvyClan, and we will defend it with our lives."

Dovestar doesn't like sharing, at all. What she takes belongs to her and her Clan, and no one else.

Bullet; Red vindictive
"You'll regret ever betraying me, Prickles. I'll make sure of it."

As she was hurt once before, she refuses to allow herself to be hurt again. She'll seek vengeance in her own regard; usually through humiliation. 




{ H I S T O R Y }

kithood : 
  Born to Duskbird and Silvershadow as Dovekit, it was unknown to her at the time that she was the product of a half-Clan relationship. Her mother was a strong and loyal ShadowClan warrior, but her father Silvershadow was of RiverClan descent. Dovekit seemed soft and fragile, at the time of her birth, and Duskbird often worried about her. This worry was amplified by the fact that Dovekit was the only kit in the litter, and the stressing mother felt as though StarClan really was punishing her for having a relationship outside of her own borders. In a way, this would ring true, but not as Duskbird had thought. 

  As Dovekit grew to 3 moons, the seemingly weak she-kit began to wrestle with the other kits and often lost, and this made her upset. She wanted things to go her way. So, the next time the play-wrestles began, clever little Dovekit bent the rules in her favor by jabbing her paws a bit too hard at the other kits so she could sit atop them. While Dovekit was happy that she won, her mother and the other queens were growing more concerned. One queen in particular was Shadesight, Duskbird's sister. She had hated Duskbird for breaking the code, and often dismissed Dovekit as a lesser kit than her own. Dovekit wasn't allowed to play with Beaverkit or Featherkit, and the poor she-kit grew colder because of it. But, as always, Dovekit wanted her way. But instead of being sneaky about it, this time she went right to Shadesight and asked her. Again, Dovekit was dismissed, and in a huff the small she-kit fled to a corner of the nursery. From that moment on, she kept most of her thoughts to herself, and was drifting away from her mother mentally.

apprenticeship :
  At 6 moons, Dovekit became Dovepaw, and her mentor was Rowanfur. Rowanfur was the poster child for a ShadowClan cat, and his heart was just as loyal as StarClan originally intended. Because of Dovepaw's family history, her mentor was quick to belittle her, and this only sparked the fire that began to grow in Dovepaw's heart. She didn't understand why she had to be hated, and during her second training session, as Rowanfur chided her on her hunting crouch, her temper flared and she lashed out with words at the dark reddish tom. "What did I do wrong!? Why does everyone think I can't do anything right!? What's WRONG with me!?" Dovepaw only held Rowanfur's gaze, fury in her eyes, as he spat back at her. He told her of her mother's relationship, and how her very existence was a blemish on the already mangled warrior code. Dovepaw's eyes grew wider at first, and then dropped to the ground as her claws dug into the soft earth. She finally understood all the insults, why she never saw her father, and why Shadesight, her own aunt, would dismiss her so vehemently; Dovepaw was tainted, and at the thought of it, she raked a paw through the ground. Rowanfur noticed how angry it made the young she-cat, and his scowl turned into a snide smirk. He asked her of her thoughts on the matter, and Dovepaw could only say that she had no family. Pleased, the tom padded towards her, and soothed her with a paw to her shoulder. He told her that there was still a chance for her, that she need only to cast away her past and start anew in a moon's time. Dovepaw blinked, and her heart began to beat again. All she had to do.. was start off fresh? She got a second chance? Invigorated, Dovepaw agreed, and Rowanfur told her of the great journey that they would be taking. To find a new land, and to start fresh, with an ironclad code that no cat would wish to break. Dovepaw couldn't wait to begin, and on that night, she was restless.

  When the time came for the great journey, after an attack on ThunderClan to drive them away by ShadowClan and WindClan, Rowanfur called to Dovepaw, who was already wide awake and at the entrance of her den, and said it was time to leave. Rowanfur met a strong grey she-cat, Ivytail, at the ShadowClan camp's exit, and she rallied the ShadowClan cats. With a nod to Rowanfur, Ivytail held her tail and head held high, and the cats who were loyal to the code left, Dovepaw included. She walked alongside Shadesight, who at this time was now like her adoptive mother. She too, had cast away her former sister, and was proud of Dovepaw that she'd been able to do the same. Duskbird had been left alone in ShadowClan, and Shadesight had only spat poison words at her before leaving. Only a week into their journey, Dovepaw had met Thornpaw, a former ShadowClan member like herself. The poor young tom had twisted himself into a tizzy over the loss of his mentor, Coldbreeze, and Dovepaw only laughed at him at first. She thought that for such a big apprentice, he wouldn't be one to get so upset, and she often playfully teased him about it. They had their bickers and arguments, but there was always something.. comforting about being near Thornpaw. He made her feel like she was just a normal cat, and that nothing was really wrong with her. However, that all passed too soon as Thornpaw began spending more and more time with a tom previously from WindClan, named Jaypaw. The fact that she was loosing one of her only friends that she was beginning to care more for made her furious with Thornpaw. After a short while of Dovepaw's silent seething, she lashed out at Thornpaw, first with only words. But the issue escalated, and Dovepaw left a scar on the larger tom's left eye. From that moment on, he was not of her kind. Dovepaw stood only with Rowanfur and Shadesight, and would follow them wherever they went. The journey was long, and difficult. Dovepaw had learned to fight, to hide, and to hunt with the best of them, and she made her mentor's heart soar with pride.

warrior :
  As Ivytail settled her Clan along the marshy, homely-feeling grounds of their new territory, she called to the cats that had followed her to their new home. She first addressed that she would be gaining her nine lives at the Moontree, a large, old, hollowed-out oak tree that resided nearby MapleClan's border, as told to her by StarClan. Her second matter of business was to appoint a new deputy, and she looked to her mentor, Rowanfur, with pride. She called his name, and with an eager smile, he accepted the position gladly. Dovepaw would like to think she cheered loudest for her mentor, but she was cut short by another announcement by Ivytail. The grey she-cat called on the apprentices that had joined her, Dovepaw being the first. She was granted the name of Doveshade, and Rowanfur, along with Shadesight, proudly called her new name the loudest. From that point on, Doveshade was determined to match up to Rowanfur's status, and to be a loyal follower of the new warrior code.

  A few moons passed, and soon, there were new kits in IvyClan. They grew up strong, and when ready to be apprenticed, Doveshade went to Ivystar to request that she be given a chance to mentor one of the kits. With a raised brow and a curious grin, Ivystar agreed to consider her request, and the very next day, Doveshade was given Lilypaw to mentor. The newly made apprentice was full of energy, and in time, Doveshade honed the young she-cat's skills into using that energy to unleash a flurry of paw swipes towards the foe's face as she lept from the shadows. Lilypaw was molded into a fine IvyClan warrior by the name of Lilystrike, and the two she-cats were rather good friends. It was a pawful of moons later until Doveshade received another apprentice, and his name was Minnowpaw. He, too, had an abundance of energy, but he was rather afraid of fighting. Doveshade was able to twist her words and get across to Minnowpaw that fighting was a part of life, and should he be able to hunt, then he too could fight. It took a bit longer to train Minnowpaw up to par, but nonetheless, Minnowpaw became Minnowsplash, and he was one of the best fishers that IvyClan had seen.

deputy :
  It wasn't much longer after Doveshade had trained Minnowsplash that Rowanfur had retired from his deputy position. He was growing weary, and his ears were beginning to fail him. With a heavy heart, he stepped down, but not before getting in a private word with Ivystar. There wasn't much deliberation before Ivystar emerged from her den, ready to announce the new IvyClan deputy. Doveshade's name was called, and her heart lept into her throat. With pride, she stood below the Flatrock, gazing up to her leader as she accepted the position. 

  During her deputyship, Doveshade grew closer to many of her Clanmates, and she was respected greatly by just about all of them. They knew that Ivystar had made the right choice, and it was 9 moons after her acceptance of deputyship that Ivystar had breathed her last breath. The she-cat had gotten a wound that was too large to completely patch up, and she ended up bleeding out. Worry circling in her head, Doveshade could only hope she knew what she was doing as she was crowned the full-fledged leader of IvyClan.

leader :
  Returning from the Moontree with her nine lives, Dovestar now leads her Clan with the notion that they are above the rest. They can fight, they can swim, and they can trick. She devises plans in the hopes to get a leg up on the others, and will often speak of skirmishes between CypressClan. [We begin here!]

roleplay example ( using an RP done over Skype )
The sun was high overhead when a dark striped ginger she-cat and her blue-gray tom counterpart were picking their way through the cherry blossom forest. The female had been sniffing out squirrels for most of the day, and the burly tom had been snatching up what she found. They worked well in a duo, she thought; she was the brains, he was the brawn. Her name was Cherry, dubbed as such by the color of her darker stripes.

As Cherry wound her way through the forest, she heard a soft rustle, which could only mean two things. The first was food, the other.. A fight. She gave a silent hiss in disappointment before using her tail to signal the other behind her to hide, then slunk off to meld in with the forest floor. Cherry waited and watched, her pelt bristling slightly under the leaves and petals- glaring as she saw a grey pelt.

"Leave us alone."
