]|✿|[
male : 61 moons : warrior: pansexual
Appearance: {fiery ginger sokoke tabby tom with low white spotting and green eyes}
Firefern is a tall and handsome tomcat with fiery ginger fur and a stunning dark sokoke tabby pattern that dances elegantly across his body. He sports long legs and a rather short coat, though the fur around his neck is almost mane like and constantly tangled with leaves and twigs. Besides his unusual mane, Firefern has a pretty short coating of wiry fur across his entire body. Despite being tall and lanky, Firefern sports plenty of muscle, especially in his legs due to being born in ShellClan. All four of Firefern's paws are white, along with a with patch on his muzzle, a white chest and underbelly patch. Firefern sports many nicks in his ear, with three on his right ear and one on his left. He also has two prominent scars on his right shoulder. He has bright forest green eyes and tall ears, along with a long, thin tail.

Personality:
{briefly; Confident, Adaptable, Mellow, Stoic, Pessimistic, Timid}
Firefern can come off as a strongly confident tomcat but he is actually pretty timid when it comes to developing friendships or any kind of relationship. Firefern has a tough time expressing his emotions and prefers to keep to himself most of the time, which means that its hard to him to reach out and develop strong emotional connections with others. His timid nature has led him to have a very strong connection with the few friends he has along with unshaken loyalty to those he trusts enough to confide in and loosen up around. It is very easy for Firefern to adapt to new ways of life and new settings, which also leads into his mellow and stoic traits. Firefern has learned how to face hardships and tragedy with ease, almost seeming unbothered when bad things occur in his life. He is very mellow in his mood, with a calm soothing tone and relaxed manner.Firefern hardly ever lets anything get to him but this can often leave him with no way to properly express how he feels. He has a very pessimistic outlook on life and spends a lot of time second guessing his descisions though he is looking for ways to get better and have a better outlook on his life.

History:
Firekit was born in the old territories to Blazingdawn and Duckflame of ShellClan, alogside four other siblings; Sparkkit, Flamekit, Thunderkit and Lightningkit. The kits were born early and as a result were very sickly and extremely weak. Blazingdawn was left weak from the birth and was unable to properly look after her weakest kits. Sparkkit died just a few moments after, Flamekit and Thunderkit died just after reaching their first moon. Lightningkit and Firekit were the only kits remaining of the litter and were smaller than normal, still very weak and sickly going into their second moon. Lightningkit died after his second moon and luckily for Firekit, he was able to make a swift recovery and eventually became healthy.
However, Blazingdawn was still very sickly even after Firekit's fourth moon. His father was very present during the time of Blazingdawn's decline. Duckflame had become very close with his only son and when his mother died, Duckflame became a hero figure to Firekit. Firekit and Duckflame spent a lot of time together during his last two moons of kithood, sharing each other's company by prepping Firekit for his upcoming apprenticeship. Duckflame was strict on his son but this never deterred Firekit, soon moving his way up to learn under his father's brother; Swanflame.
Firepaw was a very strong and confident apprentice and worked very well with Swanflame, soaring in his tasks and always overperforming. Firepaw was detirmined to prove himself to his eager father and often pushed himself to the edge, training until his pawpads cracked and his eyes could no longer stay open. His hard work eventually granted him early warriorhood at 11 moons old, however Firefern was left burnt out from his duties and expectations. His exhaustion led him to step back down under Swanflame once more and train for one more moon, learning to better manage his duties and curb his burnout.
He was promoted back to warrior at his 13th moon, striving to be a capable and strong warrior for his Clan. Firefern got his first apprentice a few moons later, a skinny and sickly tom named Littlepaw. Firefern had noticed the apprentice's odd cough early on, which caused Firefern to take the apprentices training slower to accommodate to the tomcat's odd coughing and wheezing. The two never got far in training sessions because of Littlepaw's coughing fits, which soon worsened to the point where the little tomcat was unable to move without suffering a coughing fit. Littlepaw died after two moons of training, which left Firefern to feel guilty for never advising his apprentice to get seen by a medicine cat.
Firefern's next apprentice came soon after, a she-cat named Frondpaw. Firefern and Frondpaw were a good team and worked hard together, even though Frondpaw wasn't fond of listening or following directions. When Frondwillow was made a warrior, Firefern decided to take a break from mentoring and focus on his Clan. His focus soon shattered when he grew close to one of his longterm friends, Lilybloom. The pair eventually had a litter of five kits, Chivekit, Rosemarykit, Basilkit, Parsleykit and Sagekit.
Lilybloom's kitting was long and hard, which led to Chivekit, Rosemarykit and Basilkit dying just moments after their birth. Firefern never left Lilybloom's side while she grew sicker and sicker caring for Parsleykit and Sagekit, eventually growing sick from grief when his mate died just two moons after the birth of their kits. Firefern did his best to raise Parsleykit and Sagekit by himself, struggling to keep his hopes high for the weak and scrawny kits.
Firefern was proud when both his kits grew strong and became apprentices, carefully monitoring their progress as they grew closer to warriorhood. He hopes to watch his kits grow and have more in the future.
