DETAILED ► Brindlesplash is an extremely loyal warrior, first to the Warrior Code and second to her Clan. She relies solely on her head to navigate through life; be in ordinary patrols or when interacting with her clanmates. She isn't the most social cat out there, but she doesn't shy away from interactions either. She belives that regardless of her own feelings towards another cat, it was important to foster a strong bond with her fellow clanmates so as to have a more effecient Clan. Brindlesplash isn't one to put herself before the Clan, but the same goes for her family and friends; no one is above the Clan's needs. She expects good results from all her clanmates, and though she doesn't show her resentment outward, she secretly hates a lot of her clanmates for their "laziness". A very controlling and bossy character once you get to know her, but at least she's effecient in producing good results. Can be very cold-hearted at times.

HISTORY
TRIGGER WARNINGS ► N/A
► Brindlesplash was born a single kit to Shellbeak and Honeyblossom. She had two older siblings, Driftstorm and Mistpool, who she was somewhat close with in her early childhood. Shellbeak was never around much, so Brindlesplash spent most of her time with Honeyblossom, since she had no littermates to play with. One day, however, she overheard the other warriors gossiping about Honeyblossom; they said that she had chosen to stay as a queen for all her life, even trained as a queen, and that cats like just wanted to slack off while everyone else worked hard. Brindlesplash was horrified; she didn't want to be the daughter of a useless cat! She began to resent her mother for her choice to never work as a warrior, and Honeyblossom's overbearing attitude didn't help much. Brindlesplash tried to stay away when she could, which was rarely when she was still a kit, but her chances to increased drastically once she became an apprentice.
As an apprentice, she was given a middle-aged warrior named Whitedawn as her mentor. Whitedawn was strict on her and pushed her to her limits, even dishing out punishments every now and then when she messed up that would have any other apprentice gasp in horror. Brindlesplash didn't mind it, though; if it helped her learn and become a more productive member of RiverClan, where was the harm? Whitedawn was just doing what was best for her. Focusing completely on her training meant that she rarely spoke to her denmates, and they didn't seem eager to befriend her either. So, when she earned her warrior name at the age of 11 moons, she left no friends behind in the apprentice's den.
Once she was a warrior, she began to pick up every possible duty she could find. Night watch? She was already there. Dawn patrol? No problem! Extra hunting patrol? Already out the Camp entrance! Her clanmates seemed at first delighted by her eagerness, but soon began to tire out from her constant nagging to have them join her. She couldn't understand their unwillingness; didn't they want to do the absolute best they could for their Clan? Lazy slackers, all of them! Evidently, she didn't make many friends as a warrior.
Once she became a mentor to Boragecreek, however, things changed. Her apprentice, much like her, seemed to want to do everything in their power to serve RiverClan. Brindlesplash was determined to teach her young apprentice everything she could about warrior life. Things seemed to be going well; Boragecreek was a fast learner, and Brindlesplash was confident he'd be made a warrior in no time. What she didn't expect, however, was that on a patrol with Whitedawn and her apprentice, they would encounter two dogs. Though help came as soon as they could, it was already too late. Whitedawn had been killed alongside another clanmate, and she and Boragepaw were injured.
Uponing returning to Camp, the medicine cat announced that they would not be able to save Boragepaw. As one final gift to the apprentice, the Clan gathered to watch as he was made a warrior, so that he could enter the stars with his full name. Brindlesplash was in shock afterwards, and it was lucky that she was confined to the medicine cat's den while her shoulder healed, or otherwise she might have thrown herself into the gorge. How could she have messed up so badly? Grief racked the she-cat for a full five moons before it finally relented enough to allow her to do her daily duties.
