Appearence:
i'm a pretty cat, no?
Shimmermist is definetly a pretty she-cat. There's no denying that. Every single detail, every single feature, come together to make a lasting impression on every cat around her.

Now, every heard of a birman? Every kittypet will know what I'm talking about, but it's rarely heard of amoung the clan cats. Her father was a former kittypet, and was a birman. Her mother wanted kittens that followed his genetics, so when both her kittens came out white, she cried. Shimmermist had the other characteristics of a birman, the slightly stocky build, the medium length fur, but no colored points. But by the time she was 2 weeks old, she started getting blue lynx points of a birman.

Impossible? No. Now, Shimmermist has a gorgeous coat. It's still a medium length, and silky smooth. It doesn't get mats, and it's easily to take care of. All over her body is a creamy color, which most describe as white. It is definetly not white though. Look at her paws. Those are white. There's a difference. On her legs, she has stripes running down, which end at her paws. The back of her paws, the white starts in an odd V point. It must be genetic, because her father has it too. Her tail also has the seal lynx point, and it the fur fluffs out slightly. Shimmermist's face is the most extrordinary though. The points are a stunning silver, and have darker tabby stripes running through it. The unmistakeable M is on her forehead, as all tabby cats are born with. The back of her ears are a light silver. But that's all the color on her fur.

This deputy has a strong build, not delicate and light like most she-cats. No, she's not fat, but she's not a twig either. Her legs are long and strong, with her big clumsy paws at the bottom. Her tail is a bit on the short side, same with her whiskers. Dark silver freckles dot each cheek. Her ears are a bit big for a birman, but they would be considered normal size by every other cat. Her nose and pads of her paws are the exact same shade ofmlight pink, adding a splash of color. But the detail that stands out the most for Shimmermist are her eyes. They are a light blue, getting darker towards the edges. This she-cats eyes are quite bright and stand out a lot. Definetly inherited from her father. Those eyes mark who she is, and are alive with emoition.



Personality:
but you can't judge me from my appearence
Shimmermist doesn't want to stand out. She doesn't like attention, and would rather have cats not know who she was.

Shimmermist cares about Riverclan dearly, despite some cats not accepting her still. She considers herself a full-blood Riverclan cat, and her loyality is strong. This femme works hard for her clan, since it's about the only thing she can do right. This leavesx her not much time to socialize with any cats. Not like she has friends anyways. Her mother's strictness forbade her of having friends, or even some fun once in a while.


Fears;
get lost

• becoming leader
  
• living life alone
  
• her mother
  
• never finding a mate
  
• her mother abandonning more 'unperfect' kits
  

Likes;
if only...

• daydreaming
  
• her clan
  
• peace
  
• helping others
  
• talking to other cats
  

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame

History
my past, what made me the cat i am today
Her father was a kittypet. This has brought many harsh faces, many distrusting cats. Nothing else matters to some cats, they say the blood that runs through her veins is tainted.

Tigerheart was a very liked she-cat. She grew up with respected Riverclan parents, and the blood running through her veins was pure. By the time she was 21 moons young, she was made deputy of Riverclan. This wasn't unusual, this bloodline had a lot of deputies and leaders. Her mother never really wanted kits, she wanted power. But her mother wanted kits to carry on their bloodline, to keep this family going for many more generations. Tigerheart was a bit of a rebel though, and didn't want to obey her parents. Quite a few toms in the clan were interested, but she shut them all down. If she had kits with a cat, they had to be perfect. Only perfect kits would do. One day, a mysterious cat came to the clan. He was gorgeous, strong, and Tigerheart took a liking to him. The leader allowed him, with the pleading of Tigerheart, to stay with Riverclan. A few moons later, Tigerheart had kits. She didn't love Icegaze, not at all. But she wanted his looks to pass on to her kits.

Her mother hated the two kits right from the start. Two pure white kits, a tom and a she-cat, not the two kits she wanted. Tigerheart wanted kits that looked like their father. She refused to name them, and gave them up to another queen immediatly so she could resume her deputy duties, and pretend they never existed. The clan still liked Tigerheart, but the kits, that was a different story. Their blood was tainted, the pure bloodline carried down through their family was now ruined. Icegaze looved them dearly though. He named his son, quite a huge kit, Blizzardkit, and named his beautiful little daughter Shimmerkit. Despite the queens annoyance, he slept in the nursery with them, and never let them out of his sight. Soon, the two kits opened their eyes, a shocking icey blue just like their father. Shimmerkit's pure white fur started to change though. It began to be a creamier white, and the fur on her face, legs and tail started to turn silver. A few days later, it was a beautiful shade of silver, with tabby stripes running through it, just like her father. Tigerheart didn't believe the rumors of the kit who changed her pelt color, and came to check it out. When she saw Shimmerkit, she was shocked. This kit was everything she wanted, even more stunning then her father. But nothing happened to Blizzardkit. His fur seemed a bit creamy, like Shimmerkit's, but their mother wasn't happy. One night, he disappeared. Icegaze was frantic, and searched for his missing kit night and day. Tigerheart moved back to the nursery, and dotted upon Shimmerkit. She didn't seem too upset about Blizzardkit's disappearence. Tigerheart told her mate that was life in the clan, and finally, he accepted his son was gone.

Tigerheart worked her magic on the clan, and by the time Shimmerkit was ready to become an apprentice, she was accepted by most her clan-mates, despite her tainted blood. Her grand-parents refused to show up at hre ceremony though, refusing to do anything with this kit who had disgraced them. Splashstar announced he was going to mentor Shimmerpaw, to her mother's requests. Tigerheart wanted her daughter to be the best the clan ever saw, in all ways possible. Splashstar was a very good mentor. All day Shimmerpaw was working her tail off, and at night, her mother would lecture her about her past, and her future, declaring that Shimmerpaw would be leader one day, since she retired. Tigerheart wanted more perfect kits, and Splashstar made her step down from her position. Shimmerpaw never wanted to be a great warrior, or to have power in the clan. All she wanted to do was live a normal life, pestering the elders for stories and goofing off with other apprentices. her father was her best friend, sneaking her out at night so she could run through the forest without a care in the world. At ten moons old, Shimmerpaw was ready to become a warrior. Her leader gave her the name of Shimmermist, after her misty blue eyes.

Despite being a warrior, nothing ever changed. Tigerheart still trained her daughter, and Shimmermist had no choice but to do what she was told. She had a theory that her mother had gotten rid of Blizzardkit, and was scared what her mother would do if she didn't do exactly what she was told. Soon, her mother was pregnant with kits, and had one kit, a tom. Tigerheart was patient this time, and at about two weeks old, his pelt changed colors, just like Shimmermist's did. When she was 27 moons young, Splashstar lost his last life. The deputy became leader, and that night announced Shimmermist to become deputy. The femme was shocked, her parents overjoyed. Shimmermist was about to decline the position when she looked over at Tigerheart. Her mother had fiery burning in her amber eyes, and whispered that if she didn't take the position, she would regret it. It was a threat, and Shimmermist accepted the position with a heavy heart.

Two moons, two long moons of this torture. Shimmermist hated being deputy, and still does. All she wanted was a normal life, to have friends, to settle down and have kits with a tom she loves. But her mom killed all that for her own selfish reasons. Tigerheart still comes and reminds her of her threat, knowing her daughter wants to throw her position away. Icegaze still has no idea, he is completly innocent and happy. Shimmermist refuses to ruin his life just because hers is. Everyday, a fake smile is played on her face, fake happiness glowing in her eyes. Each waking moment is a living hell, one she can't ever escape from.

Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
