NAME...
NICK-NAME... Lotus
AGE... Thirty four moons
GENDER... Female
CLAN... Lionclan
POSITION... Leader (nine lives)
SPECIES... African Lion
APPEARANCE...
Lotusstar has an attractive, well proportioned physic. Her body is currently recovering from anorexia but she once had a hale and able-body- it is obvious now that she is slimmer but relatively healthy still. Lotusstar was once of the quickest warriors, she is swift an agile but her sickness has made her soft and sadly slower but she still has it in her. Lotusstar is fairly small in stature, under three feet tall and five foot three from head to tail. Her pelt is light golden orange, her underbelly is off-white. It looks sandy, like a white lion that has rolled around in the dirt with spots on her legs. Her head has brown speckling. The pads of her paws and the tuft on her tail are dark brown almost black.
Her eyes are striking; they are a bright orange with tawny hue, in low light they glow warmly like burnt sienna resembling the setting sun at twilight over the savanna. She has a cute blackish brown button nose and small round ears and a long pink tongue. Lotus has a sweet face but since she is normally stressed and very serious, either it is stuck in an irritable scowl or her brow is tight in contemplation the only time she is calm and relaxed is when she is sleeping but that doesn't last long due to her short-term insomnia which was caused by stress.

PERSONALITY...
Lotusstar is a fairly complicated piece of work. Lotusstar is a very serious she-cat, in fact, she is almost always serious. Lotusflower has a very motherly like quality to her; she loves her clan unconditionally and is devoted to every member's well being which has almost killed her in the past. She can get a little possessive and too overly protective. Lotusstar is not afraid to show her teeth or raise her voice to keep others in line but that is all part of the job. She especially feels like she has to prove herself a strong warrior and leader and show others she means business because of her small size. She is observant and intelligent. Lotusstar is the first to notice something that is out of place and she is very quick to react.
Lotusstar presents one of the best set of ears specially made for you but she won’t sit around for too long so it better be quick. Her advice isn't half bad either. Lotusstar is almost always willing to help someone but she is incredibly antsy and impatient since she has a lot to attend to. You could say Lotusstar is reserved, but not introverted or shy. She's not an open book to read freely, at least not as open as she used to be. So unless a cat knew her as a kit it is unlikely they know everything about Lotus.
Lotusstar has always had an appreciation for the little things. She admires the trees and the clouds and the things that seemed to do nothing and have no worries, but she could never do nothing herself. Lotusstar has never been content with doing nothing. She can't stand it in fact, she always has to be doing something and she knows that something always needs to be done. It's hard for Lotusstar to stop moving, she can be a little on edge if she tries but she has recently been forced too by her wise medicine cat Thunderstrike. Lotus needs someone who can unwind her and open her up, though this won’t be particularly easy; someone who is easy going, patient, caring and could calm her down. Moreover, Lotusstar is tough and she won’t take too many trivial things to heart anymore or open her heart for attack and heartbreak. She is strong and usually brushes things over the shoulder. However, Lotusstar holds high standards; she expects the best character out of every cat. Lotus doesn't put up with shit, she will not hesitate to share her opinion of another cat but she will do it respectively and maturely to your face.

HISTORY...
Thirty-four moons ago, a litter of four small kits were born to a particularly unhappy lioness. She was not proud; she lost all the pride she had at that moment. It's doubtful that she would even recognize one of the kits she birthed for she was too ashamed to even look at them. After the expulsion from her clan, as a rogue, she was lost and alone; Alone to contemplate and drive herself mad. What is love? She asked. And what she felt for him, the male who planted his seed and ran, was that love? She was so preoccupied with herself, sadly she did not give a damn about the kits she was ashamed to have had, so they were a burden she did not want. Lotusstar, her brother and sisters were left in the tall grasses of the savanna to die.
Lotusstar knew only one mother, and she was not hers. It was only a matter of hours before the stench of after-birth drew Featherpaw to the site of four small kits, blind and deaf. They were huddled instinctively together to stay warm. I do not want to exaggerate the events that followed since it was not something all that exciting. See, Featherpaw was a young lioness, an apprentice to her clan's medicine cat who desperately wanted her own kits. She was infertile, but unfortunately, as things always seem to always play out, she was in love and desperate for children of her own. She was a sweet cat really, with all the best intentions, so she took the kits. Two survived the first week, who she named Lotusflower and Shadowclaw.
Lotusstar had a happy childhood; she was an adventurous and playful kit with aspirations to become a medicine cat like her mother. Featherpaw kept her secrets to herself and raised Lotus and Shadow as her own. Her brother was happy as Featherpaw's son; unlike his sister he remained happy even after he knew his true past. He was much more grateful than Lotusstar for what Featherpaw did. When Lotusflower was just 18 moons she learned of the truth and to say the least, she didn't take it well. She felt betrayed, like her entire life was a lie. On top of that she was confused so she ran away from the small pride who she called her family. She was a rogue now, like her real mother, but by her own choice. Lotusflower didn't know what she was looking for so she followed Starclan and by fate she found Lionclan.
Lotusflower began her new life at Lionclan when she was 22 moons. She was young but she was accepted into the clan by the leader and quickly became an apprentice to an sick warrior who died 2 seasons later. Lotusflower was a quick learner so naturally she became a fierce warrior and the more she lived with Lionclan the more she grew to love her pride obsessively. Not long after becoming a warrior she took on the challenge of an apprentice. She came to adore a young kit by the name of Ashpaw. She taught him the Warrior code and instilled in him to have no fear and have as much devotion for his pack as she had. She proved her leadership skills, perseverance as a warrior and her ability to cope with loss in an attack by another clan. There were many casualties, Lotusflower too with an injured paw and in the midst of battle Ashpaw was lost. When the leader passed too, Blackstar became leader and Lotusstar was named the new deputy of Lionclan. Blackstar was like a brother to her, she trusted him with her life and she believe he did too. Their relationship was short-lived and she was reminded once more how short life is, now Lotusflower became Lotusstar the new leader of Lionclan.
