name || Juniper
name reasoning || Was born near a juniper bush
okay! i love both the name and the name reasoning! juniper's such a pretty name, i adore it!

[1/1]

gender || She
'k!

rank || None, as she is a loner
oooh, interesting! i haven't rated a loner before!

clan || None, as she is a loner
same as above!

appearance || Juniper is a normal-sized golden brown tabby she-cat with sleek, short fur, scars running down her flanks, and a slight limp in her back left foot. She has a long scar running down one of her shoulder blades and a small scratch down the bridge of her slightly pinkish nose. Her eye color is forest-green, and her tail is slim and long. Her eyes are playful and energetic, and her body is slender.
she sounds very unique! although i'm sure it's possible to find a cat that looks like her, i think it'll be a little difficult. i believe most brown tabbies have white markings, whether chest or paws! as for the 'golden' part, i have a question; is it golden like the sun or golden like golden-brown marshmallow? other than that, all looks good!

[1.5/2]

personality || Juniper loves to talk a lot. She looks pretty naive, but she's actually pretty smart. She cares about her family and friends a lot, and is fiercely loyal to them. However, she has a dark side, shown in as she wanted to drag out the death of an unnamed cat who had murdered her brother. She tries to act cheerful, and to take her mind off her life, she tries to be sassy and acts like she doesn't care. But most of the time, she's just naturally sassy. She's pretty brave and loyal as well, shown as she recklessly attacks the unnamed tom who killed her brother and was attacking Secret (her later lover), also suggesting the fact of becoming a so-called 'assassin' later on. Juniper could also come off as weird, as she likes to comment and fantasize over flowers and grass. She's also unsure of herself sometimes, though she doesn't show it. She also hates cats who judge her for who she is and doesn't try to hide her feelings about them.
juniper sounds like a pretty nice cat, with a good balance of her traits! my interpretation from this is that she tries covering up her emotions that could be viewed as "weaknesses", like sadness and being unsure, by acting cheerful and sassy.

i'm a little curious, though, what do you mean by "judge her for who she is"? like cats judging her for being a loner?

overall, pretty nice personality! i just have one point; to me, juniper sounds super tough, or is at least trying to be. it's a tad contradicting how she fantasizes over flowers and grass. although i'm sure she has a soft side, i think that it's more realistic for a dreamy-like cat to do that, which isn't the vibe i'm getting from juniper. just a thought i had!

backstory || She was born near a juniper shrub, hence her name. Her older littermate was named Holly since when she opened her eyes and her vision cleared, the first thing she saw was a holly tree. The last of the litter was about to be named when a Twoleg came and stole the kit. Devastated, Juniper grew up with Holly and her mother. Juniper's mother told her about her first litter and mate, who were both taken by Twolegs before since they stayed so close to a Twoleg nest.
interesting so far! a few points: were they staying near the twolegplace as well, or did they move? and it's a little odd how the twoleg stole one kit but then missed the mother, juniper, and holly. i'm also assuming that the stolen kit was very young, considering they weren't named yet. so would juniper even remember the littermate?

She also couldn't afford to leave since there was so little prey, and there tended to be more prey where she was staying. One day, when the prey was increasing in other areas, they decided to leave.
curious, how do they know if prey's increasing in other areas? do they have friends who come and tell them?

When they were leaving, the commotion roused the old Twolegs in a nearby nest. The Twolegs stole all three of them and split them up, keeping Juniper and Holly and giving away their mother. Fortunately, they all lived pretty close together, so they could visit each other. Juniper and Holly were let out a lot, so they spent some of their spare time hunting. They also liked to talk to their mom and found out she had a kittypet sister who had 5 kits. They came along the 5 kits, who were adopted by a Cat-Loving-Twoleg who adopted all of them and all her brothers. Apparently, the Cat-Loving-Twoleg named her cousins Heraisabitch, Jasperistragic, FrazelFangirl, MakeWayForCaleo, HyperActiveDemigod. The Cat-Loving-Twoleg also named her littermate Zeusisanidiot, and her older brothers PercabethForeva and SolangeloIsCute.
love the names!

One day, her owners just moved away, leaving Holly and Juniper abandoned. No one would take them in, even the Cat-Loving-Twoleg. Holly said that she wanted to join 'a particular place for cats', but Juniper refused, thinking that at least one of them would judge her and make fun of her for rambling about flowers and the soft scented grass. At last, they parted ways, agreeing to meet each other every quarter moon where they were born to talk. Juniper found a lost golden tom who she talked and bonded with. They hunted together and play-fought during leaf-bare. During the middle of new-leaf, he was found dead with a tuft of black fur in his claws, along with Zeusisanidiot dead next to him.
ooh! interesting! a few thoughts: how did juniper and the golden tom meet? was it after holly left?

She went around, furiously asking who had done it, and they told her rumors that they'd heard about a killer black tom on the loose. One day, she glimpsed him standing over a dead golden tabby, and when she ran over, he had already disappeared.
hmmm, i'm curious, are the golden cats connected somehow? like is the killer tom only targeting golden cats? and if so, why?

One day, when she went to ask Holly, she wasn't there, and instead bumped into Secret, a light brown tabby she-cat with a white chest, white paws, and forest green eyes. They teamed up to kill the murderer, who had apparently killed a lot more cats. They did 7 more missions where they killed evil dudes together over the course of 4 moons, and Juniper fell in love again. At first, she tried to push down her crush since her old crush had just recently died, but she decided not to push down the crush later on. She asked Secret to be her mate, and Secret, who had also fallen in love with her, agreed. There was a yowling, and Secret told her it was her old Clan, and she needed to help them. Juniper agreed and they went to attack the enemies, rogues. Juniper was later on killed by Ivy, a rogue, and for her valor was allowed to visit StarClan, the same as Secret.
ooh, interesting! did secret tell juniper about starclan at all? did juniper believe in starclan even after secret told her? as some cats, such as mothwing, although living and growing up inside of the clans, don't believe in starclan.

i think the backstory's pretty nice! just a few places i'd touch up, though, to make it more flawless!

Secret also tends to hold grudges for a long time, or forever.
everything seems realistic! and i like the names very much XD

[1/1]

likes || Flowers, Grass, Secret, Her Family, the word assassin (it sounds like asSASSin), her sister, sassing and annoying cats playfully, bringing justice
makes sense, can definitely see that from her personality!

[1/1]

dislikes || Cats who judge her, the cats who hurt her loved ones, having to stay silent and no talking, not being able to come up with a sassy remark. And squirrel fur, apparently they 'make her sneeze'
same as the 'likes' section!

[1/1]

final rating || 10/12 [included bonus points]
