Name: Gryphonflight
Age: 32 moons
Gender: Tom
Desired Position: Medicine Cat
Short Description:
And so it came to pass. . . at the eve of his sixth moon when then moon hung fat and brilliantly lite over their heads Gryphonkit was named Gryphonpaw. The new hope of the medicine cats. Gryphonpaw was not one of the legendary cats born into the world just to be a medicine cat. He struggled to learn the taste and scent of the herbs. His mentor was kind and loving and it was barely 12 moons after becoming Gryphonpaw that he learned the hardest lesson of all. A horrible sickness fell over the camp. Palepelt was taken first and Gryphonpaw was left alone to face the trial of the mystery disease. The leader was wise and the night Palepelt was mourned he called the trembling, terrified Gryphonpaw forward.
'Gryphonpaw you have trained hard and well under our beloved Palepelt. I have watched you and I know that Starclan has chosen well. I give to you now the name that will be forever remembered. Gryphonflight! You are full medicine cat of Celestialclan. May Palepelt watch over you and Starclan guide your paws.'
The newly named Gryphonflight felt a strange calm fall over him. For once in his life he was not afraid of death. Rising to his paws the 18 moon old tom looked his leader straight in the eye and promised in the sight of his mentor and the hosts of Starclan.
"I will not let Celestialclan down. I will devote everything in my power until the day Starclan bears me away to my clan."
Gryphonflight still had to face the sickness that ravaged his clan. He went first to Fallenleaf and then with little reluctance to Echowish. He gathered herbs and put together remedies that were never heard of. It nearly broke Gryphonflight's resolve to his clan when Sparrowpetal succumbed to death cold tide and joined Palepelt in the stars. He wept bitterly for a full days time before the mewling of the sick drew him back to his clan. He lost one more cat before finding the cure for the illness and began to nurse the cats of Celestialclan back to health.
Two moons later when all traces of the horrid sickness were cleaned of his precious camp Gryphonflight went to another medicine cat to finish his training. He was humble and learned quickly. Returning to his clan each night exhausted he soon new all he needed to. The tom went then to the senior warriors and since he had no apprentice of his own spent all the time he had between gathering and sorting herbs to battle train. It has been moons since the last outbreak of sickness but Gryphonflight is ready now. He is 32 moons at this time. Picture:
Age: 32 moons
Gender: Tom
Desired Position: Medicine Cat
Short Description:
Gryphonflight is large, and a little imposing looking. He has thick silver gray fur with two black paws. His voice is charming and comforting though and he gives the clan hope when things go bad.Description:
Gryphonflight is taller than most cats. He isn't overly heavy but he can seem rather intimidating when protecting his patients and his clans honor. With thick fur he doesn't mind cold weather a bit. His massive fore-paws are a creamy silver tan, his powerful hind-legs are jet black up to the joint where they cut off to make two jagged black socks. With his size Gryphonflight is hardly ever thought of as a medicine cat at first glance. His coat is kept in perfect condition most all the time and he smells strongly of catmint and cloves. Gryphonflight's fur color is mostly a steely silver color but he has some spots of black on his flanks, haunches. His spine is striped by a thick black line, and his long tail is tipped by a ebony cap. Gryphonflight's silver shades to a creamy tan and white near his throat, face and chest. darker bands of tan cross his well muscled chest in three places, the bands do not quite reach each other. His fur gleams and shimmers like the stars had fallen into his pelt and stayed there. Gryphonflight's fangs are long and pearly white. They stay this way because of the herbs he is chewing constantly and his breath smells of honey and berries. His claws are long and hooked. They are good for cutting plants up and he uses them on rare ocasions against another cat.Personality:
This strong and rather handsome medicine cat is known for his startling gaze. His deep yellow gaze changes from a dark mustard color, to a lighter yellow green as the seasons turn. His eyes are complimented by two lines of black that just barely touch the corners of his eyes and stretch outward to fade into the rest of his fur color. Gryphonflight's nose is a orange pink, his whiskers are long and most are pure white but three or four are black and silver. He is handsome and striking. Not really the image of a medicine cat but a figure of authority non the less. He is always smiling his dashing smile and his honey sweet voice can be heard at any time, day-or night, ringing across the Celestialclan camp.
Gryphonflight is all in all a good medicine cat. He isExperience:Gryphonflight was born on a moonless night. Starclan seemed to dance and twinkle as the beautiful tom entered the world. His mother was a old queen named Sparrowpetal. His father was a shadowy tom by the name of Owleyes. Gryphonkit wasn't the favorite kit in his small litter. His sister, Redkit was the pride of his parents. Gryphonkit didn't seem to mind and as the two siblings grew they loved each other more and more. Sadly as the fifth moon passed over the two kits lives Redkit died of blackcough. This broke Gryphonkit's heart and from then on he wanted to become a medicine cat so that he could save those he loved. His father disagreed. He thought that the strong kit would make a magnificent warrior, and so he would have. But Starclan intervened. Sending a message to Palepelt and showing her that he was to be the next great medicine cat of Celestialclan. His father was not happy but he did not argue with the decisions of their ancestors.
Gentle when he needs to be
Rightous in his decisions
Young with a whole life ahead of him
Peaceful. . . for the most part
Hard to displease
Original in his ideas
Never one to rush into a situation he doesn't know much about
Firm in his ways
Light hearted. It takes alot to get this tom down
Interested in the life of his clan
Grateful to those who show him kindness
Hardly a pushover
Tense when it comes to the warrior code.
Gryphonflight is gentle toward his clanmates and has a big soft spot for kits and queens. He is not gentle however toward outside cats. He doesn't particularly like helping cats outside his clan but he is noble at heart and will not refuse any cat treatment if they truly need it.
Gryphonflight does not claim to be righteous but his acts of all kinds are fair and just. He sticks to Starclan's will above all else and is not afraid to preach to apprentices and even warriors who smudge the Warrior code in any way.
Gryphonflight is in his prime. He is extremely energetic at this time in his life and he seems never to tire. he has a long life ahead of him. . or so it may seem. Only Starclan can determine that.
Gryphonflight is mostly peaceful. He doesn't fight very often even if his fangs bare themselves at times he is not a cat to start fights.
Gryphonflight is a pretty mellow cat. He doesn't let his fur get ruffled by elders, kits, or any cat for the most part. But Gryphonflight has a dark side. If he is crossed he will become spiteful and bitter. He has many friends and very few enemies, but woe to those who cross the line onto his bad side.
Gryphonflight has a sharp mind and he is always thinking of ways to make his poultices taste better and work better. Mixing herbs together to find new cures for illnesses is a favorite activity for the burly medicine cat.
Gryphonflight is rational and thinks over everything carefully before making a big, or small, decision. He is attuned with Starclan to a vast degree and he is very good at solving minor puzzles. He is not vain and will seek out help in times of peril and he keeps a good relationship with his fellow medicine cats.
Gryphonflight is a cat that knows exactly what he is going to do and he will stick to it unless the way is impossible.
Gryphonflight is always ready with a uplifting comment or suggestion. He is hardly ever in a foul mood. His smile is contagious and his mood is generally kind and light hearted.
Gryphonflight is not a cat to sit back and watch his friends and clanmates struggle with problems in their lives. He will approach any cat that seems to be burdened and ask them point blank what the problem is. If he is pushed away he will sigh and shake his head but will be waiting if the cat needs advise or just someone to listen to their predicament.
Gryphonflight is a gracious cat. He will repay any kindness toward him with a smile. He does not forget those who have helped him and is always ready to give back to others twice what they have given him.
Gryphonflight is no pushover. He is not easily fooled and does nothing that he feels isn't right. He does let his guard down around kits and spoils them a bit but he is not a pushover for the most part.
Gryphonflight is a cat that would rather die than go against the warrior code. He does not enjoy the company of traitors no matter how much they have proved themselves. He knows the warrior code forwards and backwards. It is his closest friends and mentor.
