BASIC APPEARANCE: Fawn tabby she-cat with dark amber eyes.

DETAILED APPEARANCE: Her warm, fawn-colored tabby pelt looks odd against her dark amber eyes, but it certainly fits her stature. Nimblestep is fairly dainty looking, with solidly built legs that help her with hunting. For as ready as she might be for a fight, she isn't very physically strong.

PERSONALITY & DESCRIPTION: Nimblestep accepted the world she lived in from the moment she was able to comprehend how cruel it could be. Going without food for a few days became normal for her as a kit, and exhaustion was something she saw in every single warrior and apprentice after they returned from a hunting patrol with only a single mouse shared between them. As they say, if you don’t like something, you can either change it, or accept it. Nimblestep grew determined to do both. She understood that life was never going to be easy for her or her clan mates, but she vowed to put her best paw forward to help in any way she could. Losing those close to her was just another obstacle, as she was now used to seeing her Clan mates make their final journey to StarClan. Although hard, she didn’t give herself much time to focus on the tragedies, as she knew that they were now in a better place and that she would be of better use helping the living rather than grieving over the dead. This kind of mindset has stuck with her since her kithood, and she strongly follows her life quote, “There’s no use worrying about the things you can’t change.” This positivity has kept her fairly pure, both in mind and body, as her eyes are always bright and her paws moving, despite everything hitting her at once. Her unwavering focus on moving forward allows her to shake off many things, whether it be getting into a fight with her friend or something as harsh as death. Despite her own opinions, she respects that many may not share the same outlook on life, and she takes into consideration that others might need more time than her to process things. This belief, however, doesn’t come without faults. Although she can usually brush things off with little time for herself, she sometimes has a tendency to be brutally honest when it is not appreciated, while also containing her feelings to a point where it might be considered unhealthy. Still, she trusts her friends—especially her littermate Fennelbrook—to be honest with her when they hit hardship. Living a lie would only hold them back. However, that positive mindset has been slightly dampened after learning she would have kits before her warrior ceremony. In that time, she learned that not everything can be routine or planned in a way that you would be able to predict. She now has a more level head, and while some might say that her positivity doesn’t shine as bright as it used to, Nimblestep will simply answer that at some point, everyone has to grow up.
